For "Shacknews Jam IV," I'm interested in changing up the rules for a bit.  Specifically, I'm looking at using the rules that are in place for the "Extra Credits" game jams.

Please let me know if you have any issues or objections with adopting this rule set.

I would rather if this wasn't the case, as I am not sure if I could just make everything from scratch. But of course I guess that is a bit selfish on my part, and the general community will surely have some good opinions on the matter.

I should also prefer to make a discord server about your game jam stuffs.

EC have put a lot of time and thought into their guidelines, I think adopting them would be a great idea.

I liked the month-long format of the last one, and didn't really mind the two week format of this one, but I wouldn't even participate if it was 3-5 days.  I like having enough time to make a full game - not just a crappy doodle.
