Hariko Posted July 1, 2015 Share Posted July 1, 2015 Anyway let's hope we can get the newspaper ready by the end of July and have a bumper issue? We need more journalists! Can I start scouting for journalists to contribute to DN? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mediobogdum Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I'm in the office until major update after which you'll have to talk to URA if you want a mass tg put out Put together something with URA's help if you need it and I'll issue the tg as soon as I can!

Hariko Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 I was actually of thinking of recruiting people one-on-one, judging them based on the quality of their factbooks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mediobogdum Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Good thinking and, whilst you're at it, tell potential recruits that they had better put their factbooks onto the Darkipedia Index so we can all see them! *ebil grin* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hariko Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Exactly. I don't want to come off as bossy, but if we're to make the transition at midnight tonight, please mind your endorsement count and keep it below Russo's. Thanks~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mediobogdum Posted July 2, 2015 Share Posted July 2, 2015 Well, you do sound a bit 'bossy' but, as you are someone who will be in a position to boss ere too long, it's good to get some practice in I am going to look at it again before update and ask a couple of other nations to withdraw their endorsements at the last minute in case some TWP twerp wants to play at being a silly idiot!

Hariko Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 *collapses on couch* First issue out, finally. I just hope next issue won't be so chaotic. *falls asleep on couch* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
URAP Posted July 9, 2015 Author Share Posted July 9, 2015 Yes. Although scouting through those factbooks to find good reporters is a good idea, so we should do that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hariko Posted July 9, 2015 Share Posted July 9, 2015 I'll start doing that today in my spare time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hariko Posted July 22, 2015 Share Posted July 22, 2015 We should start working on the next edition of DN. Preferably, we should release this no later than the first week of August. I'll go looking for stories and give them to writers. I'm going to have to get the help of more people because Reçu is absent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
URAP Posted July 22, 2015 Author Share Posted July 22, 2015 Ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hariko Posted July 23, 2015 Share Posted July 23, 2015 (edited) So, I asked Drak if he wanted to write an article. I'm thinking about BBB, but I haven't seen any writing of his to make judgement off of. I expect everyone on the DN staff to produce at least one article, and no less than 500 words. I will cover the BBCode and editing, and will make sure to format it for the forums this time. I will go looking for topics for all of you to choose from (if you have any to contribute, do), and if some of you have the extra time, a second article would be much appreciated. I'm okay with collaborations. The deadlines will be posted once I set up a time frame. Okay, Dass Nachrichten, let's get to work! Edited July 23, 2015 by Hariko Drak has declined writing an article for DN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
