I would like to strongly advocate for the new thread to be posted in SYM, for several reasons. First, it has always had a receptive audience there and provided good entertainment value. Second, it would be wonderful to have occasional cameos or perhaps longer visits by past DFs. But that is much less likely to happen if the story is posted here. I only found this place because some drunk transient from COMM sold me a map.
Third, if we are looking for new authors, there is no better recruitment tool than placing the story where the action is. And finally, we had many readers who really bonded with the story on SYM. Think of their woe, their sleepless nights, that will result from being unable to re-experience the glorious highs, the startling lows, and the absolute wyrdness of DF in a place that is easily accessible to them. It is too terrible to contemplate. Think of the little SYMers, all tucked in their beds with bottles of Turkey and Jack, but no DF in sight. We cannot let this happen!
*jumps up on the parapet* We must fight to make DF accessible to all who long for it, to all who have dreamed for it, to all those who have never worn leather or done a naked hotub! We do this because it is just, because it is right... because it is the type of crazed mayhem a group of hot, cutting-edge virtualists were born to wreck upon the unsuspecting land of Game Banshee. Let the games begin!
