Ok. Here are the list of things that have been set up that no one seems to use.


The Forum (http://furc.zapto.org/phpbb2/)
The Wiki (http://furc.zapto.org/wiki/)
Mailing lists (http://sourceforge.net/mail/?group_id=114038)
The IRC channel (irc://irc.chatspike.net/#FVG) (And I know that no one is ever actually listening)
Calendar (http://furc.zapto.org/Calendar/) (also available in straight ICS, contact me for details)
RSS feeds (http://furc.zapto.org/rss.htm)


There is an index of all of this at our Home page (http://furc.zapto.org/) (though it is lame; you can bug the web team about it).

a lot of people also don't know about our official title-screen song, Anticipation (http://people.msoe.edu/~kolodzik/Anticipation.mp3).

another thing that has gone unnoticed is our Sourceforge profile (http://sourceforge.net/projects/furc/).

Hey guys, I'm not involved in FVG at all, but just to comment from a more objective point of view, I didn't even know any of these things existed.

With all due respect, having all these information sources that nobody barely uses is essentially useless. I think you have a great idea and all, but it might help to simply send out emails and get and give feedback if you aren't already. I'm really interested in hearing what is going on with the video game, and I occasionally check those sources, but I never really understand much out of it.

I wish you luck in continuing communication. Build season will make things much much tougher. For a couple of the organizations I'm involved in, I use this format to send organization emails:

TOPIC
Info info info
TOPIC 2
Info info info
TOPIC 3
Info info info
IMPORTANT REMINDER
Info info info
QUESTIONS THAT NEED REPLIES
Question on Topic 1
Question on Topic 2
Question on Topic 3
Question on Important Reminder

I wish you the best of luck, and if you choose to start sending something out, let me know :) so I can be a groupie. My apologies if I missed something that is already in the works.
