While it is good to have this much written this soon it is a fact that most of these case studies are for our benefit more than the lecturers'.
What we are looking for in these character studies is not details on the character but what traits make them interesting to players. If it gets to week 10 and we have to trawl through 12k words for a few useful lines about what makes interesting/believable character we're going to regret it.
It's really good work thats been done so far though, it's just a little bit too much good work.
Any thoughts?
PS. This is being posted here because I will be far too tired to say this in any meaningful capacity tomorrow and it will be nice to show us using the blog for meaningful discussion.

I agree, the less unecessary wordy the work is the more of it we can do. Of course, my work's perfect, but not everyone is cursed in the same way I am.

Also using this blog for discussions too is a good idea- like Lewis and Kyle said it saves logging tonnes of E-Mails and the comments can now easily let us share our opinions on things. ;D

Well it’s as you said earlier. If something’s getting overly wordy there's nothing stopping somebody from making it multiple posts.
We just need all the stuff explaining why a characters interesting/believable/whateversimportant to the project, to be clear and not to spread out.
