Coshade i actually like the idea of revamping the library of the white spires. its always been a place that we all hope to gain a spot in but the way to get in was very arcane and ambiguous. its tough to aspire to what seems like an arbirary choice based on old metas. the only concrete way in so far has been to win gen con. if we all ratify a means of nomination or submission to the library i think it wil FEEL more like its in game counterpart. a repository of legendary books that great mages made and put to great effect. deposited there be the collective wills of the mages through the ages.
Now im not saying that we need to boot all the current books that are there, but i think that Category one for the Library should be play-ability. one must be able to book and legally play the books contained therin. this might mean that the owners of the current books need to alter them, or simply put them into a special category of "ancient tomes" that were made before the magic changed.
Nor am i suggesting that the current methods of entry get changed, the gen con winners obviously deserve a slot by virtue of merrit. i do think though that we should decide on, rattify, and publicly display the full list of methods of entry into the illustrious Library of the White Spires.
tldr im with you coshade. lets tidy this up as a community and make it a clearly achievable goal.
