Who?
Everyone's invited
When? From TUESDAY 2002-09-03 and until Tuesday 2002-09-24.
Where?
Right here!
What? Everything on the Content Rescue
Team's node list.
Why?
The blessed and enlightened leadership of The Content Rescue Team has
come to the conclusion that the CRT's backlog of candidates for rescue has
become exceedingly large and the rate at which new candidates are being
added exceeds the rate at which they're being rescued. We invite you to
help clear out the list and contribute to the further factual, err,
enhancement of the database as detailed in our mission statement.
Eligible submissions and HOW-TO:
Grand Prize:
A weekend date with our distinguished and sexy leader JayBonci!
(BAP members not eligible BAP members are eligible, see in-store display for details)
Or maybe not... anyway, we fully expect to see the same level of
quality that characterises factual writeups these days. Awards will be
given in the form of XP and blessings. That's right
folks. We will not be stingy when it comes to brilliance. Granted, XP
isn't all that it's made up to be but even if it's just a vanity thing,
enjoy it. As is the case with quests in general, you can also expect your
fair share of votes and chings for your effort.
On another note, we're not just shopping for factuals. Not that we
don't appreciate grand jobs worthy of, or even better than, an
encyclopaedia but that's not all there is to it. Let's also make them
interesting and fun. Give the subject your personal commentary and
analysis (we all know that Alyssa Milano is hot, concise statements to
that effect may accurately reflect your disposition but don't qualify as
analysis :). Explicate. What's your relationship to it, do you have
anecdotes that go with it? What's your take on Watergate and Spiro
Agnew? What's hot in Missoula, MT? What did YOU like most about The
Martian Chronicles? Is there a reason you prefer *this* C++ function over
another? Your subjective view can make the big difference once the hard
facts have been put down. Of course it's clear that one's personal take is
unnecessary or superfluous in some nodes but we leave that to your best
judgment.
Don't just be factual... BE INTERESTING!
Let's do it.
