You are forgiven for the double post! ;) I wish I'd had the time to beta for Wicked Relics. I'm currently working on 3 others with another one coming soon, so I didn't want to over-commit myself. :( Yeah, this place is alive & hopping! :thumb:

Wicked Relics is sure to be a hit - It is a ton of fun. I had no idea so many missions were in the testing stage, but that is great news indeed!
I'm looking forward to playing all of them - and I'd like to extend my offer once again to all the soon-to-be-released missions authors for screenshotting the mission for them if they'd like me to. I can send the processed shots via a PM for you to post in your announcement threads :D
Anything I can do to help get the missions more interest from the community I'd like to help :)

You know, this might be a totally dumb idea, but this board should have a
'thief level club' which would be like a book club, except say every two weeks a thief level is chosen, and the people in the club play it.
Then everybody who does so has to come up with something about what they liked in it or what they didn't like or just some comment about it. But the rule should be that if you want to be in the club, you have to post and give your opinions or thoughts.

Thats a good idea, indeed. Like a "Mission Of The Month" discussion thread.

I think that is a fantastic idea. That way we can all chat about a mission while it is fresh in our minds. If someone wants to start this, I'd be glad to participate.

I can run with this concept and post a mission thread each week or two along with screenshots if no one disagrees. I'd be glad to maintain it alongside this thread.

I'm glad other people think it's a good idea. :D
I have no problem if someone wants to work on it. Maybe we should wait and see what other kinds of responses we'd get, or how many people would be interested; see how much effort to put into it.
You could even kick it up a notch and have time-contests or ghosting-contests for those who would want to attempt it. You could also come up with scoring for each mission, like particularly break it down into different categories, so that then if your looking for a mission high in that category you would know what to look for. My imagination kinda runs away with the idea, but I don't want to step on anyone's shoes here.

If you are willing to run it yourself my friend it sounds like you'd have the passion for it just as much as I would and I'd like to see where you take it. (as you can see from this thread, I go a bit overboard with my love for Thief 2!) If you'd like, I can provide you with screenshots for the missions before you post the threads each week or two weeks and it can be a joint effort. If you'd like to do your own thing without my involvement that is great too, and I have no problem just being a regular contributer. I'd also have no problem maintaining it myself if you'd rather not have the responsibility.
You let me know what you want your role to be - you brought the idea forward and im sure most will think it is excellent indeed!

It sounds like a very good idea indeed. Count me in!

No man, I have no problem with you doing it at all. All the best with it. :thumb:
I was just doing the builder's work and bringing the idea forward.
I'll take part in them, but I don't know if I can commit to be on here and coordinate everything like that. Just throwing out some extra ideas to make it more engaging for the people contributing to it.
