I just thought of this new concept for SGs, where the reader needs to either know something about a subject or be willing to learn about it in order to participate. This seems like it could be a good way to teach a group of people about a subject while incorporating writing and storygaming into it. All it needs is an author who is knowledgeable about a subject and an audience who wants to learn about it.

I am quite tech savy; if you google HalfEmptyHero (all one word) you will find my name on many computer (mostly Linux) related websites. I was thinking about starting up a storygame that would teach folks more about computers, specifically using Linux, but this would only work if people are interested in learning. So, anyone interested?

As long as you were instructive enough with what you post that I can follow it and learn FROM it, I'd be happy to follow along and would even be rather interested I think. If you were there to answer questions, you could fill in the unforseen gaps in knowledge that way I suppose.

I know HM doesn't require you know Sumerian mythology nor the Old Testament... but it sure doesn't hurt the reader to understand it better if you do ;)

Really interesting idea HEH. A good way to be inclusive and instructive. Good luck with it.
