So, first of all, I want a week of my life back. Will that fit on a hex or would it take a star? :P
All jokes aside, this is pretty great. I'm most amused by the complete story threads (Stella, Downside, the Pokeverse, the Animorphs verse), but the RP as a whole is pretty close to the top of the list of "things I've read this year." Watching the Bells ... /emBellish/ things is something of a treat whenever it happens, too, particularly in a world that needs optimizing like Panem. (And somehow, giving the fairytale Bell narrative-causality-sight is just appropriate, though I wonder if there's a Discworld Bell out there somewhere.)
The one thing that does bug me is - warning, I'm a YW fan so I'm biased - I feel like the Powers That Be could've gotten a more charitable reading. It seems pretty easy to interpret the metaphysics such that all the Powers but the Lone versus the Lone is a fair enough fight that everyPower's too busy fixing false vacuum collapses or whatever to worry about iodine in Africa. Of course, I don't know what you have planned, so this could just be Campbell's impression based on what little he's got.
Anyway, I'm going to go figure out how to remind myself to check pages for updates. Obviously you don't have deadlines but roughly, what's the average rate of updates per storyline per... month, say?
