I understand your concern, but I assure you that your fear is unfounded. No work will be wasted by a switch. A change of formatting would not eliminate all previous planning for the series; rather, it would give the writers more freedom on when to write and publish their stories.

Another fear that I have seen gripping people is the concern that TWS would not be successful with TRS' format. The fact that other "common series" have failed causes people to look upon the project with dread and distrust. But remember that all previous series of this format have been small-scale, independent projects. TWS is our official series. It can be linked to on the Main Page, or on help pages. It is officially supported by our entire staff. Writing for the series is seen as a badge of prestige, and a number of new users have asked to be part of it. I have been forced to inform them that our Season 1 slots are all taken. With the degree of enthusiasm I have observed for the series, I doubt a lack of episodes will be our main problem. I believe we will garner even more writers than we have now.

I spoke perhaps too speculatively when I suggested merging the two. Obviously, that would be the decision of Matty and the rest of the wiki. I merely wished to stress the fact that there are so many possibilities for how we can proceed. We should not be locked into a single, possibly flawed system just because it's "established."
