    Would you be interested in a setting to go with the GFRs?

What kind of setting? Evangellion, Warhammer 40k or Battletech ;).

Either way I would be interested in helping/contributing. Could you provide some more parameters on what you expect from input? I hope to be post-finals in about three weeks if everything will work smoothly, would it be too late?

The setting would be a new IP.

If you go to http://6d6rpg.com/wiki/doku.php?id=open:settings:generic:book you'll find a big long list of the paths and advantages used to make a character in 6d6. To start with we're looking for suggestions for these.

M, sorry. I meant to ask about the flavor. There is a massive difference in general world tone when one compares this with this. They might look similar, but just comparing 40k Mech 'Pilot' with Battletech Pilot shows rather broad disparity while both being surprisingly focused on big battle robots.

Thanks! I'll try to read-up about it and cook something.

As of wiki… I actually wanted to ask you about some of the design decisions. Would it be possible to have 'next page' and 'previous page' functions? Perhaps I'm missing something like that consistently, but it's a bit annoying to constantly go back to section contents and then selecting next bit. That's hardly even a complaint, more of a suggestion if anything. I think that there was some easy way to do it with Doku Wiki code/plugin to generate these within namespace, but it has been a while for me ;).

The next page, previous page is something I've been asking the webmaster for for a while. I'll asking them again when the next big project is finished.

Look at Docnavigation plugin and/or show it to designer :D. I'm fairly certain that adding necessary tags can be automated with some Bash/Python script.
