Why not everybody who can just pitch in and complete the campaigns we have going?

Short stories are great, but there's no satisfaction. they're like one time deals..

I'd say that short stories are like one off missions, novella's are like mini-campaigns and the big campaigns are like novels or even series of novels.

As for pitching in, I think that everyone capable of doing something already is :)

Because in certain cases, there's very few people who can.  That's why the likes of Reci (in particular) are taking ages- theres a shortage of ****-hot modellers.

I'd be worried about the 'too many cooks' factor. People tend to do what they do with a certain style, and the more people are working on something the harder it is to keep a consistent style and pace to the overall effort.
