Where's the Strength of Thousands subforum?

[AlgaeNymph]

Like the title asks. I was told to post questions there but it doesn't seem to exist yet. Same thing for Ruby Phoenix, come to think of it. What's going on?

[David knott 242]

Nothing from either of these APs has shipped yet, and even Ruby Phoenix is still a few weeks from shipping (although we will be getting all three volumes at once). I think they only set these forums up when shipment is imminent.

[David knott 242]

Okay, now that the Player's Guide is out and volume 1 has started shipping -- where is the Strength of Thousands subforum? It looks like we do have the Fists of the Ruby Phoenix subforum, but not Strength of Thousands.

I've never kept track of these but I wouldn't be surprised if they don't create the subforum until the first volume's street date.

Next week then. Excellent!

If you have questions about it, you can start threads in the AP general discussion and they will be moved when the forum is finally made. Just make sure to include context in the title so folks know to expect possible spoilers if that is the nature of your question/comment.

This does not seem to be something that was terribly standardized, but we are being assertive with templates and project management, more than ever. I've proposed, ideally for future APs, that it will be when the Player's Guide goes up. In a perfect world that the sub-forum go up about 30 days prior to street date. Does that sound good? What do you think?

Extremely good!

The only other time that makes a lot of sense to me would be when the AP is announced so there's a place to sequester all the speculation and announcements, but that can leave a subforum without much to talk about besides speculation, so perhaps not ideal.

Anyway -- It looks like that subforum has been set up.

You're welcome! :-)

Big fan of the predictability of that approach!

Predictability is good, and to that end but on an unrelated (to the subject of this thread) note: the Devastation Ark subforum has been pinned between the Starfinder General Discussion thread and the latest SF AP thread, instead of being between FLy Free or Die and The Threefold Conspiracy.
