Cool, I think I'll probably bring 'em all back too.
It's taken me long enough to write the mission (disappearing for a few months and giving up on it didn't exactly help in that regard), so I don't mind waiting for some feedback, as long as you don't mind spending your day off reading.
...for my first mission.
It's set in the Abhorsen-verse, so someone with knowledge of that would be really useful, but I'd welcome comments from anyone.
I can provide a Word document or Google Docs link to anyone that’s interested, let me know your preference.
Oh, and a quick question about minis, are they rescued from the fic or the mission? If my agents interrupt a scene halfway through, or do the Duty before the last published chapter, would the minis created in the bits that no longer happen disappear, or would they still be around to be brought back to HQ?
I think I just you an e-mail, but I'm not completely sure as my router dropped out basically simultaneously, so it might not have made it through in time.
Can you let me know if get it? If it doesn't arrive, I'll send it again.
I'll look over everything and leave my comments on the GDocs.
I'd prefer a google docs link, if you can. Do you need my email to send it to or something-?
Yup, e-mail would be useful.
Or you can just e-mail me on samurai_ireland@hotmail.com if you're cautious about giving the address out. Without wanting to tempt the IO too much, I've had this address for a while now, and wasn't particulalry cautious with it at first, so I doubt anything I do is going to increase the amount of junkmail I get.
I bring back all the minis from a mission, even ones from unobserved portions of the fic, for the sake of completeness, and to give as many folks the opportunity to adopt some as possible.
Obviously, in a mission with absolute butt-tons of minis, there is no obligation to name them all in the text itself. You can just mention that mini numbers have grown ridiculous, and then just toss the names onto the Wiki when the mission is published. Folks can find the individual names there.
As for betaing . . . I do know the Abhorsenverse, but my next day off will be Monday. So unless the mission is relatively short, I wouldn't really be able to get to it until then.

Also, I forgot that today is the night I stay up to watch "King of the Nerds," so I might be able to get through it now.
I think the potential minis disappear when you cut the fic short. Of course, in certain cases, that's probably for the best - remember Des' Doctor Who/Artemis Fowl mission?
Or Sergio Turbo's Nanoha/Sailor Moon/Card Captor Sakura/whatthehellever mission?
That was a lot of minis.
Think I'm going to go with what doctorlit suggested though, but thanks for answering.
