Make Character Q&A its own Board?

When you put it like that, I think this thread should be focused more on brainstorming and less on roleplaying, since we DO have the Cantina (though it's sadly neglected these days).

I've actually never seen the Cantina. Where is it hiding these days?

Waaay back in some neglected corner, I imagine. It's died at least twice since it was first born, and this most recent one has been pretty bad for it. I've tried to get others interested in it again, but no luck so far. :(

whats the Cantina?

It's something Mindfire and I came up with and developed. The setting, as the name implies, is a tavern between fantasy worlds, which your character(s) find and enter, and they can interact with other people's characters in various ways. It was a lot of fun when it was active.

Cool.

Another possibility is to make it a just plain forum instead of a sub-forum. I'm guessing you guys would be fine with that, too, as long as the original Q&A threads are all moved there so everything's all in one place. Speaking of guessing, I'd rather not guess what you guys want, which is why I'm asking instead of keeping this conversation in the mod section. (I appreciate the responses, too!) So I have two questions for you:

1) What is the purpose of these character Q&A's?

If you prefer multiple choice:
A. brainstorming/planning
B. role-playing
C. both
D. none of the above


2) Whether it's a sub-forum or forum, what would you want it to be called?

If you prefer yes/no questions:
Does "Character Q&A" work?

I'd go with A--while roleplaying is involved, I see the purpose of a Character Q & A as a way to draw out the history and motives of a character from the author. Maybe even help the author discover bits of history and motive that she hadn't been aware of!

Meanwhile, Character Q & A works fine as a title. :)
