Now don't let's be silly.

Speaking of movies, have you been able to get a preview showing of Ep3, Skar? I want to know if I should schedule the review for the 19th, when it comes out, or the 20th, when you've had a chance to write after seeing it on the 19th.

Also I'd like to note that posting only press releases as that day's content is kinda lame, better then nothing I guess but a Press release shouldn't be set as a single day's item in advance.

I was thinking of adding a news section, much like gamespots, just for things like this.  We'll have to see if we want to have to constantly throw up things in it or not.

So, Green Ronin has asked for the .pdf of my little adventure. I've already sent it to them and hopefully I'll hear back from them in the next week or so. I told them that we'd publish this around the 20th, if the scheadule won't allow this, I guess we'll have to figure something out. Hopefully, we'll get it back earlier and be able to post it earlier. I figure the WotC back-log can wait a day.

I'm now starting to put together a .pdf of a mini-adventure written by EP. Assuming I don't get completely sidetracked by other stuff.

I also hope to get a squel adventure put together for the one I wrote.

I'm sure, Fell, that I will have a review ready in time to post on the 19th. I will, after all, have several hours to write it before you wake up.

So I got approval from Green Ronin. I just have to make some minor legal changes and I think I'm going to change some stats to reflect errata.

So I'm thinking, perhaps we could publish it on the 18th instead of the 20th. That leaves the 20th available for Star Wars stuff, and the adventure makes a good primer for D20 Past.

We are building up a backlog of WFRP stuff I believe - perhaps we could do a big day of nothing but WFRP? Several articles at once, just to show our devotion to it :P

Plus that makes it likely we'd get a link to the mainpage by Green Ronin or Black Industries...

If you're ever in an argument and Entropy winds up looking staid and temperate in comparison, it might be time to cut your losses and start a new thread about something else :)

18th sounds good for the adventure, 42.

We can do Star Wars on the 19th, but I don't want to step on Skar's toes for this. Movie are his department, so clear it with him if you want to do a review. The trouble is, I'm sure we'll have several people who all want to review it.

We also need to keep in mind that one of those days, maybe the 20th, we'll have a magic prerelease primer from Prometheus. What delightful alliteration.

I bring it up mainly because we could probably have it on the front page by 4am eastern. But if Skar wants to do it, that's fine. I go to so few movies that I tend to review them.

No, I think it's a very good idea. There's also the possibility that we could get Dex to review it--he's seeing it tonight, and we would have time to write the review, edit it, and post it by the 18th at least. We'll have to see what Skar thinks.

Let me just say that "42's M&M Adventure" is a movie I'd pay big money to see.

I've emailed Dex at an address I got off of one of his many websites.  Hopefully it's still good.

Even if he does review it, I'd like to see a review from e as well.  We've had more than one review for a movie before, namely LoTR 1.  No reason we couldn't do it again.

We could make the blurb point to Dex's at first and then add links to the new ones as they come in, and move the blurb back up to the top of the front page on the 19th.

e, send me your review as soon as it's written and I'll do my level best to get to it first thing in the morning so Fell can post it at his earliest convenience.

Yes: send your review directly to Skar, to make sure that he can do whatever he needs. I won't be able to post anything until around 11 or 12 that morning, because I'm seeing the movie at 8 :)
