Maybe so and it might completely fail. I can accept that if it happens. If it completely fails, I will analyze everything. See what was good and bad, fix things and try again. This is the first time for something like this. So I expect there to be a lot of bumps in the road. The first time is going to be hardest I think, but once it gets going I think things should be good.

I'm fully aware that this can completely backfire and if so you can hand be the gun and I'll do the honors. But I think there are also enough people here that want to try and want to hopefully see it succeed that it will last. One thing I am hoping is that the novelty of a RP ends up last about two months. So since the RP in a technical manner will change once a month, that novelty will hopefully stretch out. Now of course it is the same world and story being continued, so I do not expect the novelty to be stretched too long. But once the novelty is gone, those that remain are the ones that want to stick it out anyway.

Yes, I'm being optimestic, probably naive. But you need a little of that if you want to do something. Though you also need some reality and pestismism. Things will not be perfect the first time, but this is the trial run in a manner. As we do at work, I will have a "core dump" for the tournament for whatever end it meets. And find out what people think was good, bad and should be improve. That way things are better the next time. I do not plan on giving up. I know the second time will be better since I will have the experience of this one to look back on. About all I had before was RP Jam, your Tournament Merlin and ToA, none of which are ToH but a possibly indecent merging of them.
