How long have you had a commuter marriage? I imagine that'd be very difficult for me, so I admire you for making it work.
So you never read TIN? And I never got too far in NA. Maybe we should trade favorite posts someday from our respective first games.
I think with other games, one of the things that got them an audience was being pimped by some of the more well-known people in fandom. Do we even have those anymore?
I was thinking about using a series of sample posts to give people a taste of the game so far, enough to motivate them to continue to read it. Like Hermione's first post (http://alt-hermione.livejournal.com/725.html), which introduces her role in the game. And about the Order Only spell (http://community.livejournal.com/hpalternity/898.html), so people won't be confused about that. Harry's sorting (http://alt-harry.livejournal.com/736.html), some in-game events that they would recognize because of similarity to the books (http://alt-harry.livejournal.com/1772.html), the Ministry (http://alt-terry.livejournal.com/2459.html) of (http://alt-terry.livejournal.com/2612.html) Magic (http://alt-terry.livejournal.com/2997.html) Declaration (http://alt-terry.livejournal.com/3326.html) transcribed by Boot... Things to pull them into the world and be motivated to learn more on their own.
