This is an announcement of a thread label for all posts pertaining to
the Flaw storyline: please use the label [F] in the subject line of
all such posts from here on.

The Flaw is the story conceived originally by the sick, inventive mind
of Steve Masticola (who's running Boffin and MaryMary) and hammered
into shape by yours truly, Mike Metlay (running OeDaerrFakhuDaerrDhorrKaena
and the members of Red Rain: Nona, Lita, Ree and Elly); we have been
joined by Carl Fogelin (Quig and the nasties of the Monkey Tong), John
Sinteur (D'Fi) and the illustrious Mr. Strake (Kyna) by this point.
Steps in the narrative are being hammered out via email; if you want
in, as Mithrandir (Salrak) did, please email me or Steve with your 
character and request. Random insertions into the thread via the news
group itself are discouraged, as the Flaw story is intended to sew up
a nasty problem with the Rifts as originally created and ensure everyone
here a long-lasting and happy gaming environment.

PS: I would also suggest that posts of people in the Rest who are not
currently part of a major thread be labelled [Rest]. Comments?

Yeah, I guess that makes more sense than closing it out altogether. If
you'd like to get in on the Flaw thread, email me or Mike Metlay
(metlay@netcom.com). 

Please 'scuze me for getting testy, but the thread has gotten quite
complex and is somewhat difficult to manage (especially with Carl
launching mayhem on my characters all the time :-) We're trying to
take the story in a definite direction, and the more people involved,
the harder it is to make it go there, or even to keep it reasonably
coherent. But, hey, nothing that any ordinary Krell couldn't handle...

Re the labeling convention: So, f'r instance, the Flaw Thought Engine
subthread with Quig, MaryMary, 'Kaena, and D'Fi would be labelled
[F:QMKD].

BTW, whatever happened to Jackpot and Lopez? That was getting
interesting.
