If you have recently discovered the abundance of Labyrinth web sites and have signed up on another page for one or both of the old Coollist Mailing Lists, please unsubscribe from them and sign up for the newest Major Domo lists. Traffic has stopped on the Coollists because everyone moved over to the Major Domo lists and Coollist often crashes, leaving everyone wondering which oubliette it has fallen into this week. You can find out how to unsubscribe from the Coollists at the earlier version of this page.

Major Domo programs can also process commands, like telling you who all is on the list. For a complete list and explanation of commands, send an E-mail to [email protected] with only the word help in the message area. Typing info will send you the Frequently Asked Questions. Lady Sowelu currently runs the discussion and fanfic lists and has a very helpful Labyrinth List FAQ at her site.

The second list, [email protected], is exclusively for fanfiction such as poetry and stories. Comments regarding a story should either be sent directly to the author, or, if you have a rather insightful comment to offer (something more than, "I liked it! Can't wait for the next chapter!) then you can share this with [email protected]. Fanfic authors live for this kind of attention, so don't feel shy about telling them how much you liked a story or poem!

The third list, labyrinth-roleplay, consists of Round Robins (stories where everyone is free to add their own chapter) and role-playing continually in progress. You can be yourself or a character of your invention there.

1. Prohibited on both lists is the posting of "chain letters" and "make money" pyramid schemes etc.
2. Also despised on the lists are short or one-line responses which have quoted an entire message. I've read that it is customary to quote no more than four lines of text and to add at least that much in response. If you need to quote more than four lines, then you should paraphrase instead.
3. Please edit your messages and do not merely hit the reply button. You may not realize that your mailer is attaching the entire original message at the bottom of your response when it is mailed. You may want to try out your software with a friend first, to see if this happens, particularly if you have America OnLine.
4. It is a bad idea to post attachments of any kind to any list. A lot of mail accounts, such as Juno, cannot receive them.
