Theme events

[The Holy Saint, Grand High Poobah, Master of Monkeys, Ehlers]

if you haven't left yet, email me what you got, please.

[Spriggan]

I don't think I'll be sending any staff picks, I don't have any WW2 stuff that I like enough to comment on.

[stacer]

Just sent it to both your addresses and thelemur one returned. I'll try again.

ARGH! Foiled again.

EDIT: I've sent it a third time and it doesn't seem to have been bounced. Hope you get it.

[The Holy Saint, Grand High Poobah, Master of Monkeys, Ehlers]

looks like i got it. Thanks for the help!

[House of Mustard]

Sorry Ehlers!  I'm late, but it's Fell's fault.  You'll have the editorial and staff picks today by noon.

[House of Mustard]

The editorial is in -- it's so bloody long that Fell recommended you might want to split it into two installments.  That would please me, because I wouldn't have to write a third article this week, but whatever you want to do...

[The Holy Saint, Grand High Poobah, Master of Monkeys, Ehlers]

sweet mother of crap!

Yeah, that's long. I probably will split it. I'll let you know in the morning when I run Wednesday's stuff and I see what's on the plate still.

[The Holy Saint, Grand High Poobah, Master of Monkeys, Ehlers]

actually, I know exactly what's on the plate. If we split that into two, I finish my Attack! Expansion review, and we do Staff picks, that fills out the week.

Still, any new WWII articles in by Thursday night I'll be happy to run, folks. Otherwise, that finishes us off for theme week this month. What's the end of June theme day?

[House of Mustard]

Fabulous news Mr. Ehlers.  Do you just want the Staff Picks emailed?

[House of Mustard]

Also: How come no one has changed their names for this theme week?

[The Holy Saint, Grand High Poobah, Master of Monkeys, Ehlers]

Because a saint is always a saint. Even in times of war.

Also, because FührerEhlers would be poor taste.

and uh.. yeah, just email me picks. I'll put them all together.

[stacer]

Aren't you proud of me? I've never changed my display name, and now I've joined the crowd.   Walking out into a wider world, indeed.

Any thoughts on what I wrote about June's theme day (28th of this month)?  If no one opines by the end of this week me and Entropy will decide and let you know.  If we can we should deicded on Julys as well.  Just to save you from looking back a few posts here's the small conversation me and JP had last week:

Now is the time to start think up June's theme.  I'm thinking it should be a fantasy theme of some type or a deparmnt theme.  Deparment themes are something I was thinking of doing that could be very cool.  They would rely on mostly non-review articles (probaly only one review).  So for example if we do an RPG theme day we would have one product reveiw and lots of artilces on RPG, like how to put the Epic into your campaign, how to start of adventures, what setting/system is right for you, etc....  But feel free to suggest what ever you want.

I'd say rather than do a department day, which is a little broad, do a theme within it - such as Fantasy RPGs, or Universal genre RPGs or something. Just doign a department, while cool, seems a bit run of the mill and not really exciting.

The point of them is to get non review articles, but I see your point.  Maybe haveing them be things like "How to run campaings"  or "how to create your own setting".  

[stacer]

I would be able to participate with something if it were a little broader than RPGs (since I don't play them), but that's just me. I do like the idea of narrowing it down for non-review content, though. And I like the fantasy idea.

[Spriggan]

We'd like to have everyone be able to participate but that's not allwayse going to be the case.  Anyway after talking to Fell and Entropy here is my suggestion for june and july.

June-Cyberpunk (Entropy has been wanting to do this)

July-something dealing with fantasty or RPGs
July Contest- HARP core book

Since we've got the Video game contest starting tomorrow or friday I think that doing the fantasy contest (and thusly the theme) in July.  But since the theme day is on the 28th of June we could start it then.
