| If you have some idea or suggestion you can post it here and maybe your suggestion will be in magazine. |
| Maybe there should be an Agony Aunt on the 'Zine not saying that it should be me but I always thought about making a club about it XD |

| How about the following: video game section- Like a small section about some games like reviews, recommendations and such? Community page- Like talk about MAL's clubs, events held by MAL, hot topics in the forums. It's your magazine so it's okay if you deny them. |

Game section might work if there are a lot anime based english games. Community page I don't like it. Since it will be difficult to manage it. |
Ripaz said: I had to look it up, too. An Agony Aunt is someone who helps people out with personal troubles they send in. Personally, I don't think it would quite fit in this zine, especially not at the beginning.Pika876 said: Dunno what is that?Agony Aunt Ripaz said: Again, it can be added later once the zine has some issues behind itself.Community page I don't like it.

Ripaz said: Game section might work if there are a lot anime based english games. Community page I don't like it. Since it will be difficult to manage it. I understand. For gaming I would say stick with Japanese games. This is a magazine for Japanese media after all. If we put the section in we wouldn't go overboard. We can worry about this section later on, I think we should go with your first initial planing for the 1st few issues. ;D ----------------------------- EDIT: I mass message the Writers Club about that story publishing deal. It could take a while to get going so I'm sure you know it'll show up in later issues. |

| wondering for the games...includes visual novels or no <.< ? |
 |
| Yes. Yes we should. They count as games. ^^ |
TheUnknownMerc said: That. And we should make some deadline dates for everything to work systematically. Are we going to rush for February or take our sweet time until March? I guess February 15th or so would work too.wondering for the games...includes visual novels or no <.< ? |
| How about 5th? Is 14 days enough for writers? TheUnknownMerc said: wondering for the games...includes visual novels or no <.< ? Yes they count. |
| I'd like to be a writer. Hmm, but with my workload this year, I see it as being impossible. But for all magazines, internet or paper versions should have editors. Those who can overview it and fine tune any mistakes or typos that arrive. I worked as a yearbook editor once. I had it easy, sorta. |
 |
| Ripaz, what size do you want the PDF? I've aiming for 8.5x11, or I can use more standard magazine dimensions. |

Ripaz said: How about 5th? Is 14 days enough for writers? Seems to be a fair time, as most of the writers will have only 1-2 things to write. |
| fine by next week i should be having it easy =P exams this week Y_Y |
|
| Yeah, most will have 1-2 things to write, but what about the length of those things? :p I'm writing for a FF themed newspaper AND this e-zine, Oi vey. XD;;; And my 6 novel projects...(one for the Zine) And my blog... xDDDDD I AM UBER BUSY! LOOK AT ME~~~ *cough* =P |
| Sorry if I missed it but what's the rating scale for every Zine category? Are we using MAL's 1-10 no decimal system for everything? |

Or half of its size. Kuronoa said: Sorry if I missed it but what's the rating scale for every Zine category?

| I joined to make a comment and suggestion as I read the club message above. All good ideas I thought. As an editor for an online magazine that also publishes quarterly in hard copy, one thing I didn't see on the list was definite set of editors and position definitions. Editors which solely correct grammar, format, etc. that are not correctly information within a story. Assistants who work only on making sure information is correct. The set-up we have is, the main "creator" receives the reviews/stories and then forwards them to a set of other editor, who first yay or nay the reviews/stories. Those that qualify by majority and then sent to the editor which solely corrects grammar issues, etc. (that's what I do), then forward them back to the creator for publishing. Just a suggestion. |
