So a lack of knowledge means I'm not welcome here? I've always wondered why there's a lack of Republicans on this forum and now I'm beginning to see why.

Lief, this TL was so epic. It's probably the best I've ever read.

I hope you will continue it, once you have the time for. Sad

This was a good timeline, though in certain places seemed a little forced in order to have historical characters present.

I just sent Lief a PM asking him to update or instead to cede authority over the timeline to the What-If community, making it a collaborative timeline. I propose we give Lief two weeks (until September 18) to reply, and, if there is no reply, continue the timeline ourselves on the 19th.

He's probably been sent about a million pms by now since he started slowing down during the tl, at least two from me. I haven't gotten a response, and I assume several others haven't either. Given that, I'm just gonna guess that in two weeks' time, this'll be nationalized.

Start coming up with ideas Smiley

If this does come to pass, I'll probably start a separate thread for writing and planning, while posting the finished updates here. But I don't want to discuss anything just yet -- it's disrespectful to the writer, I think.

Should this go into place, would it be better to appoint one "official" writer who can sum up all the ideas and weed out some of the horribly whacky? Or would that be too much centralization of power? Also, should it be done in this thread, or should this thread just link to another thread that continues from 1957-on. As a last note, we'd probably need access to lief's maps in order to properly write this.

No, I think it would just be kind of an open discussion forum, where we would come up with the general plan and task one person with writing down the consensus. I don't want anyone looking like a successor to Lief (who should probably get veto power over anything we do).

I'll admit about the maps I have no idea, but I think the maps already present in this thread could probably be copied and edited to create new maps. Another thing, at the end of it all, we could concern ourselves with is the recreation of older maps which have 'timed out'.
