There's a question: How frequently will we be posting stories once we get going? One a week? With a mid-season break of about a month or two?



    Still crankin' on the timeline...





    *nods* Yup. I kept thinking of those tables of free stuff that always seem to pop up at most conventions; fan clubs, comic book stores, independent artists and filmmakers, and the like are always putting out promotional flyers that attendees can pick up to read and investigate at their leisure. I figure it'll be worth exploring.



    How does "Atlantis Rising: The Virtual Series" sound? (or Seasons, but I like the ring of "Series" better)
    That sounds great. Series is a much better word.

    It depends on how quickly everyone writes their episodes and gets them beta'd. We want to keep everybody interested so don't want too long a delay. And I think having at least 5 written before we start putting them up would give us a good cushion of time to work with.

        Agreed on the timeline. I'd like publication to be pretty consistent and not be 1 month here, 1 week here sort of thing. But when we get to writing rough drafts we'll develop a better timeline for all authors.

        I like the ring of 'series' too.

          You were talking earlier about finding a pic of the city taking off, there's always the shots from EatG, similar to this:



          As for the name

          That's the best I've seen so far.

          My preference is for something not involving the word Rising. Granted, I can't think of anything better, but there's plenty of time for that. Months even.

          Okay, that stinks. This is why I'm not writing anything

            That's good. Thoughts from everyone?

            We've also got:

            Atlantis Rising
            A Virtual Series

            Or we could go for a combination?

              Okay, so as far as the official title goes, we've got the following suggestions:

              Atlantis Rising
              The Virtual Series

              Atlantis Rising
              By fans, for fans!

              Virtual Atlantis: The Series Continues
              By Fans, For Fans

              Any others?

              Right now, I'm still leaning toward Atlantis Rising: The Virtual Series, but if someone comes up with a better one, I'll vote for it.

              Also, for the writers/artists, I spotted this post on LJ with links to sites that have pictures of weird and unusual buildings, scenery and natural phenomena that might spark some inspiration for the new settings we'll be visiting in Season 6 and beyond.

              Sparky is on screen. Therefore, it is canon. Elizabeth is still out there. And John WILL bring her home.

                I prefer "Atlantis Rising, the virtual series".

                Love those buildings. The basket building, House Attack and the Library one make me laugh. The Stone house in Guimaraes is near to my house in Portugal.lol
                Many great buildings in Spain.

                  Okay, looks like we're voting again. Unless more than 5 people object it looks like Atlantis Rising is our new title. Now we need to refine it. I voted for the first one also. We can always add the words "by fans, for fans" in the exposition somewhere.

                    My vote goes to: "Atlantis Rising, The Virtual Series".

                    Just finished watching Season 1 and 2 of Castle. Great! Can't wait to see the next S3, even if the Season 2 ending was a little sad ...

                      Mornin' sparkies. Man, it's been a while! Loved all the fics and pics! I do like the web host idea, and for a moniker, "Atlantis: Reprise. By fans, for the fans" just kind of popped into my head. I do like "Atlantis Rising" if entries can no longer be submitted. Now, no promises, but if things go well (like not losing limbs while doing yardwork today) perhaps a lil Sir John and Lady Elizabeth will set for spell with ya'll.

                        I guess I can add one since technically I didn't say no more nominations. (I'm saying it now!)

                          I agree, we definitely need to have the "by fans, for fans" tagline as part of our promotional/info statement. After all, that's one of the big features of this project.

                          More of the adventures of Sir John and Lady Elizabeth? Hooray! I'll be looking forward to seeing it!

                              Helloooo, Sparkies! Where is everyone? Watching the LOST finale?

                              I wonder what Elizabeth and John would do if they were marooned on a deserted tropical island...

                                Had a couple of unexpected busy days, but last night I went to a concert of Eric Clapton & Steve Winwood and it was AWESOME!!!!
                                Day before that we went to see a new born baby and it was such an insanely cute kid and I couldn't help but think that a Sparky baby would look so adorably cute too... I'm corrupted for life
