CREATIVE COMMONS (BY-NC-SA)
Catalyst Game Labs wants people to join us in the skies of an alternate 1910. Not simply as observers, but active participants. We want you to leap on board ships as crewmen, helping to expand the breadth and scope of the Leviathans’ world. We want our players to share the game with their friends, create their own websites for their campaigns, write their own fiction, post their house rules, publish ebooks of their own Leviathans-based creations, create crossover systems for running Leviathans using other published (or home-grown) rules sets, or even (in perfect Steampunk style) create a mash-up of Leviathans and your favorite ‘other’ world.
To this end, we’re publishing Leviathans under a Creative Commons license. Details on how this license works are noted below.

WHAT IF CATALYST LIKES MY WORK?
Catalyst Game Labs will keep an eye on the work done by the Leviathans community. If Catalyst sees something it likes (fiction, art, rules and so on), Catalyst will contact that individual with the possibility of putting the person under contract (if they so wish) so Catalyst can release the material in question as part of the rest of the Leviathans line Catalyst will publish.

Apologies for deleting the answers to this thread, as well as the "Snakes on a Leviathan" thread. I'm re-structuring, based upon numerous requests in the "What do YOU Want" thread, and it was un-avoidable. Hopefully this expanded section off-sets the inconvenience of the lost threads.

Might seem to be a bit obvious, but just in case...
WHAT IF CATALYST LIKES MY WORK?
How does that apply to stuff on this forum? Is the entire forum considered under the license or just the sections under the Creative Commons sections. If an idea comes up on a different part of the board that would fit into the universe well, I'd hate to see it not considered for future inclusion because it was in the wrong area.
Administration:
If the work is derived from our CC-licensed work, it needs to be CC-licensed as well.

To further clarify, regardless of where an idea is on the site, if we like it and we want to merge it into our universe, we'll contact you and let you know so that you can decide if you want to go down that path or not.
Thanks.
Randall
