Pern fandom page?
Hi there! I was wondering if you might be interested in collaborating on putting together a page on Pern fandom? What I'm envisioning right now is a page that goes over the history of Pern fandom (maybe including a timeline of key events?), the many changes in rules and regulations for fanclubs over the years and some background on legal issues, and the different types of clubs and other fan activities. I could also imagine having a separate page for Pern-based MU*s as there is one for Tolkien-based MUSH as well. However, I'm more into PBeM and not familiar with all the MU*s. I think having a separate page for every Pern game might be overkill (there are more than 1000 on my last count, though "only" a couple of hundreds are actually active), but an overview of the playing principles and history/legality of the different types (fanzines, MU*s, PBeM, forums, fanfic archives) would be useful. What do you think? - tameeria 18:04, 26 February 2007 (UTC)


 * I could see that working. I have almost no clue about the PBeM side of Pern gaming, aside from what spills over here and there, but I can trace back MU*ing pretty well, and I remember the whole bit from 1997-2000 (2001? I'll have to check the dates.) when we weren't allowed to start any new games. I could definitely handle the MU* aspect of it. Whether or not PernMU* would need a whole separate page is questionable, but it wouldn't be hard to put together. Karmabum 20:33, 27 February 2007 (UTC)
