Perhaps the former writers could, rather than slagging off those that are doing it now, offer them copies (or even the originals - they don't need them now) of their old notes - the unpublished stuff, that said what they had planned as background.
You assume we didn't. You assume that we didn't say "get in touch if you need clarification on this, or even if you want to ask." You assume that we didn't pass over plot documents, and that instead we're hear, looking for a reason to piss and moan.
I'm still pretty LT-negative and haven't been to an LT event since Into The Woods, and haven't run one since the Last Battle. But in the last 12 months I've answered a couple of questions that I've been asked (about House Karlennon history) because to not do so would be unreasonable.
And like binidj, forbinporject, ephraim, westernind, etc. etc. etc. I handed over all of my plot related documents, notes and files to the plot team when I left.
Now - you're expecting us grognards to be psychic - to somehow know that the Architect plot was still ongoing, and that somehow through the power of our ginormous branes that the Harts plot team had got something wrong - something that contradicts what's gone before, and that we should motivate ourselves into getting back in touch with people we don't know and save them from their mistake, assuming that they know who we are and actually don't take umbridge at being contacted out of the blue and being told "you're doing that wrong".
Or, the much simpler solution would have been for someone on Harts plot - perhaps the 4iC if that's still part of their job description, to say "we're running with this plot, and we can try and get in touch with the previous writers."
Our action requires psychic powers, there's requires a bit of forethought.
