Welcome to C3G! – Directory

[Matt Helm]

Once a week deadlines sounds unnecessary to me. You certainly don't want to rush out a card and leave off a major power (not that it would actually ever happen).

I do think that a separate post of Finished Cards might be nice (kind of like the Hall of NM24) so that fans can always easily check in on what the C3G considers polished and print worthy. Every time there is 5 or 6 new cards added, we use Bat's connections to get a front page add for the new "C3G Wave".

That would be my plan if I were in the advertising department.

I don't think anyone is looking to implement deadlines, Matt. Also, there are no more "C3G Waves". Once the figure is completed, the thread turns into a book and the creator moves on to their next figure. I assume the figure is also linked to our C3G Master thread.

I think it's best to do that on an "as needed" basis. For example, for the Fantastic Four, it makes sense to maybe hold them back and release them all together. For Deadpool, Elektra, Colossus, and Carnage, not so much.

Yeah, the current "Release Party" thread is going to be converted into a "Books of the C3G Index" thread once the fervor dies down and we get all the books completed.

This makes some sense - and maybe those would be the times where we'd try to generate extra buzz/get front page coverage/etc.

I completely agree with this.

So what happens if the first figure I decide to create is Human Torch?

[Spidey'tilIDie]

I have to agree with Balantai on this. Perhaps maybe we should look onto releasing them in Boosters. Every 4 characters could be released together. It may be difficult to do sometimes but we can always go the "Heroes of New York" direction or something. Heroscape manages to market 4-5 completly unrelated Unique Heroes together in each Wave, can't we do that occasionally? I think often we can pair them together during the creation process. Pairs woudl be easy to market as "Gods and Minions" (Hercules, Thor, Doombots), etc. Just wanted to weigh in.

Then as a group we would have to talk about what we want out of the Fan 4 Team. In fact, we have all discussed it several times that the "team" that we have to work on together very carefully is the Fan 4. that is a team that needs to be done at the same time so that their synergies are well thought out, planned, and completely intentional. I don't care which one makes it to the finalized-finish line first, as long as the team is done appropriate to each other.

Other than that, I don't care who works on what, or what gets released first.

Yeah, I was looking for something a little more "dynamic". Plus I didn't want to get left out - all the cool people are changing their avatars recently, like Griffing, Bats, and Necro.

I wish I could read what IAmBatman's says on the bottom line, though.
