Here is where you can find our list of rough ideas taken from writers' meetings. These will include concepts, lines, ideas and titles that may have sounded funny. They need some fleshing out. Take the ideas and have a go at expanding them. Soon they'll be able to level up to a script! :)
*Beware! Please only delete ideas if you script them up, lest you invoke the wrath of Erinjim, the mythical firewarrior that dwells in this wiki*
