Round Robin Module

So this idea sorta came up on irc. The idea is to take the example module and only add things. But to make this more interesting after a set period of time (lets say a week) the module is passed to someone else to work on. So the module has a bunch of different authors with slightly different ideas and visions of the game, but they have to work off other people's code. So there are at least a few people interested I just want to get an idea of of how many people want to do this and how long should one person get the module. The benefits of a short working period is that one can just add monsters and items with no problem and lets them participate if they don't think they can code new features.

Another point to consider is should there be rules of what can be added. obviously people would like to keep this probably pg 13 rated and have some semblance of unity ( do people want to add random sci-fi items into a fantasy module?)

All of this should be discussed

*edit* do we want change the name from example module? I personally think we should change it to something else. preferably a humorous acronym

I agree that PG-13 is a good guideline. Beyond that I think a jumble of different ideas and genres could be a lot of fun.

Cool idea, and I'd be up for participating (after I finish Rogue Rage anyway). A fortnight might be better than a week so it doesn't feel rushed. We could set it up on that git thingummy.

I think a consistent theme would be nice, but it should be lighthearted and fun and as inclusive as possible. Maybe.... you are trapped in an out of control Star Trek holodeck, with all sorts of crazy thing appearing? Then anything can go in :)
