LIne-ups shortly. 

I will post game updates in this thread.  Y'all feel free to discuss the game as it goes along.  I'm looking at scaling back the game updates unless you want for them to continue as-is.

It's really all up to the members here on what you want.   If there's something you want that's different from how we're doing it, by all means, chime in.  We're here to provide the content that you folks want.
