Ask and ye shall receive. Cleaning out some of the encoding artifacts that came from going Notepad -> GMail -> Openoffice -> Forums, I did notice a few places where I'm going to have to make the tense consistent. But, this is what first drafts are for.

Ow, my arm! Stop twisting it! Actually, I'm mulling over pitching something a little different to you. Watch your email...

Yep. Happens to me all the time. Including by SJGames - both in the distant past and currently! Sometimes it's an issue of your idea needs further work, sometimes it's an issue of being a good idea, but not where we want to go at this time, and sometimes it just isn't there. The key is to not give up and either refine the submission or try something else.

Exactly. This is also part of why it's best to pitch early, sometimes as soon as you have an idea, rather than trying to come up with something perfect and final. Not only will you not waste your time if the idea is rejected, it'll also get the pros involved early to help guide you, as well providing incentive to actually finish. SJ Games in particular really likes to be there every step of the way.

I'll try out some of your concepts next weekend at a con I'm at.
