//There IS a plan to make sure our members know about the queue before we
post broadly or do any wide outreach-//
Thank you, that's all I wanted : )
//I hope you're right and people WILL come when they realize what the AO3
really is,//
I'm fairly sure they will. If any archive ever had a chance to get as big as
(and hopefully way better than) ff.net, it's this one. I'm also hoping the
newbie fans will realize how great it is to have a big working archive on
your hands - I mean by now there's a whole generation who has obviously no
idea, because they completely "grew up" on LJ.
//but open sign-up means that even if a fan doesn't know anybody currently
with an account, they're not disenfranchised.//
I really hope it works out. It's certainly better than the pure invite-through-friends thing.
//Lastly, the queue a continent is a really interesting thought://
Yeah, I'm not really sure it's possible, though. I mean it's easy to set up 5 queues at different times, but there's probably no way to control who goes into which queue (well, at least not without a lot of additional programming.). So you have to hope that people will play fair and not hop onto queues that are obviously less full. (On the other hand it will probably still be better than one queue - because one queue will always make sure that half the people are asleep or at work when it goes up.)
Anyway, thanks for everything. When I started posting here I wasn't really sure this would go anywhere (besides annoying you), but it's nice to see you care. So yes, rest assured I'm happy now and I will renew the membership : )
