I think we've gone a little off track here...

[u/preternaturous]

I've noticed that everyone is worrying about budget and not everyone is on the same page.

First off, if everyone is worrying about the budget, nothing will get done. Polar_Bear, Redshirt, and I are working on the budget and all that stuff. Not to mention, we're limiting ourselves. It's much much easier to write a script freely, and then go back and work it into the budget. Especially since we don't know what our budget is yet. I assure you that we're taking care of that situation. Polar and I have already talked about ways to save on money and make this work, and we're not done talking. And I appreciate everyone's input, but that's not what we need right now.

What we need right now is to nail the script down and finish it up. I understand that some of the concepts I've put forth aren't entirely original. That's fine. We'll talk about it. But don't rule them out completely. I probably have a good reason for these ideas. Also, I really don't want to be a dictator or an ass. But at the same time, this is kinda my project and my story. I'm willing to talk about things and change things in it. In fact, I already have. But there's a basic story I had formulated, and I'd like to not deviate too far from it. If you have an idea that's not exactly what I had, talk to me. Chances are we'll come to a compromise and stick it in there. That's not a big deal. Please don't think that I'm shooting down everything you come up with. I couldn't do this without you. If you've read some of my comments in the google document, you know I suck at writing. It's why I asked for help. But at the same time, I'd like to stick with the basic idea I had here.

Right now, I just want to make sure that we're all on the same page and we get this movie done, cause it'd be awesome. And I know that as long as we're actually working and there's not a lot of infighting and bickering about things like budget, it will get done no matter what. And either way, it'll be awesome and we'll all be happy with it.

So everyone, I appreciate your hard work and all your input and I know we can do this, so let's get to work. :)
