Nice to meet you too!
Right, yes, my Project.
Well, it's the h2g2 Realisation Project, and and the page can be found at
http://www.h2g2.com/A422128 .
Mu aim is to set up groups of scouts (to find all things h2g2 and get info on them), artists (to visulaise those areas), designers (to design the maps), and mappers, me being the head one.
The maps are going to be multiplayer maps for the increadably poluar game Half-Life, and if everything goes well, we will convert the best maps we make for Counter-Strike, a Half-Life add-on.
Naturally, I realise that not everyone has Half-Life, but there are loads and loads of things for other people to do, and I believe Amy has already agreed to be a scout (although we'll have to change that name so it doesn't conflict with the Peer Review system).
And yes, I am good at German... I got an A* in my GCSE in Year 9!

I think, although mapping h2g2 is not popular with everyone, If we're going to do it there's no point in waiting. The longer we wait the more difficult it will be to come up with a plan that accommodates all the visual descriptions.
I see that DD has signed up. He knows lots of places. Styx the Rat will be useful too. He gets around, especially on the "lower levels" of h2g2. I hope he will feel inclined to join in.
Perhaps my "Beyond the Map" page could be a focus for an ideas thread.

Ooops, simulpost, sorry!
Well, of course, I would like to help - it sounds as an interesting project.
As for the 'German Village' as Amy named it, there is indeed a Purple Pool, which is mixed with a kind of pub, called B'Berliner Buletten Bude, a book club. So, if it's interesting for you, I can look around and ask the German Community.

Hi Big C, nice to meet you too!
Kasia, aren't the fireflies particularly enchanting tonight?
Champagne? I brought the bottle with me...

Great! Anyone who would like to help in the Project must, I'm afraid, state their desired job title in the Applications thread over at A412128. Legalities, my friends, legalities...

Message for the Rat: There is a researcher called LizardLady so you can't call me Lizard Lady. I'm not a lady anyway (neither is Amy but that is another matter ). Call me Lizard or Firelizard. I call you Rat.

Passes some fresh parsley towards the nodding sage...
Just had a most enjoyable hour and half watching TV (My TV card is working ). The thing being I was watching a movie I've seen many times before, The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

A Guide ML error, that's what.
Can anyonec make sense of what "Bad closing element BODY expecting P" between the final paragraph ender and means? Please?
