  • Thanks. Fair point about beggars can't be choosers.

    I may add a rule in the description about attributing the original creator. That seems appropriate -- and the least we could ask.

  • I've seen part of the review from Logos by Nick. He seemed pretty excited about it, too.

  • Apologies for the late response. I hadn't posted any rules yet, but I'm certainly open to suggestions.

    I'd like to lean in the direction of less than more on the rules and then deal with problems as they come up.

    I'll modify the description to include some brief rules, and then we probably need to bring it up for discussion at some point. Provided we start to see some traffic.

    [Full disclosure: I'm a director at a large software company (not ESRI!), and I'm not entirely sure our own HR department includes pay range in all their job postings -- although that may be changing right now with various rule changes at the state level in the US.]

  • Edgar Rice Burroughs' John Carter books are public domain. They've got those on Project Gutenberg, but they may be too much "stock characters" for you.

    Would some of the Lewis Carroll stuff scratch the "science fiction" itch?

    It's a bit of a stretch, but Mark Twain's Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court at least has the character development. And, strictly speaking, it is time travel. ;)

    Finally, if quasi-fantasy and mythopeia do anything for you, there are things like George Macdonald's Phantastes and G. K. Chesterton's The Man Who Was Thursday. Both those authors were influences on C. S. Lewis. But we're really straying away from anything that's strictly science fiction there.
