That does prompt the question: how are we going to do the communication? E-mail? Forum?
Personally, I'd like to see it happen here on a forum. But I'm happy to defer to what the group decides.
I think I'd like to see it here, too. But I was accustomed to the mailing list back when we used the RP list and such, and I can certainly appreciate some people now having mobile email access but not yet having good mobile web, so it's not gonna bother me much if we stick with email.
How I believe it worked in the past to keep unnecessary/unwanted emails from flooding people is to have a separate mail list for each of the councils, in addition to the main one for everyone. Council-related RP was conducted to the specific lists that pertained to the council the character was in. I think we could still have this here, with restricted forum access to council forums.
