I also think it's great for the idea you proposed, Jen!
Yes. Men like sports. Men watch the action movie, they eat of the beef, and enjoy to look at the bosoms. A thousand years of avenging our wrongs and that's all you've learned?

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I would think a master list would mainly be good for an initial invitation to join a discussion/mailing list for whatever the project at hand is.
I like this.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Ha, ha, ha! You distilled it all down to one sentence. I am way too rambly.
Brevity is my gift.

I like the idea of a list. I try to participate when I see it, but I miss some of the good deeds.

So, how to proceed? Is this something where I can just put a notice in Press? I feel like choosing to opt-in or not kind of is the vote. Would love to keep it simple, but don't want to make assumptions.
Thoughts?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Now, can this be achieved by having a buffistas mailing list? That people can join and unjoin themselves at will, without anyone having to be involved maintaining it?

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I think the part that can't be done by a mailing list is excluding the potential giftee? Or would there be a way to do that on the computer?
