Flagg
The Most Electrifying Man in Sports Entertainment
Van77Man graciously pointed me to a copy of the EC spells PDF. Filthist Cynis should be following this up with more soon. This brings up an important question: How should it be made available.
There are two options, as I see it:
1. Have the PDFs downloadable in original form.
2. Port all of the stuff into Lore5
I favor option #2. I don't mind doing the importing. As for the absence of user accounts to attach the submissions to, I propose creating an "Old EC Content" user to assign the submissions to in Lore5. Each submission would include a note saying "If you wrote this, contact a moderator to get credit for it." If someone steps up to claim authorship, the submission could then be transferred into their name.
Thoughts?

There are two options, as I see it:
1. Have the PDFs downloadable in original form.
- pros: Easy.
cons: Impossible to rate.
2. Port all of the stuff into Lore5
- pros: Stuff can be rated, and would be found in the same place as the rest of the submissions. Charms would be integrated into the graphical trees.
cons: Data-entry intensive. Many authors are not current members in the database.
