Thankyou. I'll try to get the newspaper up as soon as I can.

Also, I would like it if people wouldn't interfere with the thread, including its name. Yes, I'm glad we're PC's official newspaper, but I believe that each member has a right to title his or her thread as they choose. After all, it's our posts. As long as we're not harming the forum, aren't we allowed the freedom of speech?

I would really love to help out somehow... (I mean, if you're going to borrow a page from somebody's book, you might as well bring along the author, too! :P )

Can anybody give me an idea on a humorous article I could write? Keep in mind that I'm from the PE2K forums, so I don't completely know my way around these parts yet. ;) (And if I'm too late for the first edition, I'm more than happy to write it for issue #2!)

dark_croconaw December 17th, 2004 7:06 PM

Can I help with this? Im in Journalism at my school, and writing a newspaper article for pc would be great.

Angle-san December 17th, 2004 9:16 PM

HKim December 26th, 2004 12:44 AM

Wow, so many interested writers! Well, interested writers and Fair. Heh, just kidding Fair.

Okay, if you want to join, tell me what you would like to write about.

dumbthingy December 26th, 2004 3:37 AM

I'd like to join too... however I'm not that good at writing, is there any vacancy for other stuff (website/archive/pdf files/whatever)?

Thanks in advance :D

AngelWolfie December 26th, 2004 3:53 AM

Could I make comics? 0.0 I make comics in my spare time out of boredom and this would give me a reason :P
'Course, I'd need to come up with a title and characters.. (maybe it could feature PC members?)

EDIT: Oh, someone's already making comics..Maybe there could be two different comics? (Mine and Fixen's)

Well what kind of skills do you have? What sections do you tend to visit? The more information you can provide, the easier it is to give you suggestions.

Radical Edward, I added you onto the list. We can always use more comic artists. After all, a real newspaper doesn't simply have one strip.

Dark Pikachu, I put you on as well. I'll continue looking around for story ideas, but if you have anything you would like to write on, feel free to tell me.

Welcome to the team, everyone. Now, let's get back on track. I'll look around the forum for some ideas and if you have anything, post them here. Let's try to get another newspaper up for January. I won't post a specific deadline yet.

We have one edition under our belt, let's make it two!

dark_croconaw December 30th, 2004 9:19 PM

I'd like to cover news or roleplaying, but any section is fine for me.

We can always use someone covering roleplaying. Welcome to the Chronicle!

Anyway, it's time to start planning for the 2nd edition. Let's get started.

Fixen, Edward: Let's try to get two comics up. Personally I don't care if it's one panel or several, but I would prefer it if the comic can be posted on the newspaper rather than linked.

Dodger, Croconaw: Try to find the popular roleplays and review them. Remember that with reviews, you can include personal opinions. Simply post which roleplays you'll be covering (two each would be preferable if you can't do more) so you don't accidently cover the same one.

Blaine: Same as covering a fanfic. Simply review some written work by the members. Remember, Max is always there to help.

Max, Lilypichu: For your fanfiction stories, try to create a balance of review and summary. The newspaper readers want to know what the fanfic is about.

JKaizer: You can continue a gossip article if you want, unless you want to transfer to another section like Opinions.

Cracker, Manga, Pikachu, Secret Base, Croconaw. Here are some possible article topics:
- Spoiler Tag (Have people been abusing this privilege or are the admins simply being precautious?)
- History (Anyone interested in researching into PC's past? How did this forum become what it is today? Note: You can make this a series of articles if you want.)
- PC Webmaster Competition (Will the results ever arrive? What's holding up this event?)
- PoKéSaFaRi Collection Avatar Edition (Did he like them and are his avatars usually added to the collection?)


Remember, there might be other news topics as the month goes on so don't worry if none of these appeal to you. Of course, if you find a topic you want to cover, feel free to.

Finally, I would just like to thank all the writers of the 1st Edition of The PC Chronicle. Without you, we wouldn't have a newspaper. PichuSecretBase, Cool Cracker, Max Hunter; great job on your articles and participation.

Now with this ignition, The PC Chronicle can surge forward. Let's show everyone what we can do!

HKim January 2nd, 2005 9:04 PM

Gah, here's me double posting again.

Anyway, the new PC Oekaki is up so if anyone wants to cover that, simply reply here.

I'm Cracker not Cracjer..Call me CC BTW. Anyway Harry I have a good Plan on doing a article on RolePlayers and Someone is doing one on Hackers!!!
And I can do PC's History!!
I've not got much time though.

HKim January 10th, 2005 12:20 AM

I must apologize to the staff that I haven't been updating the main page. You guys give me so much energy and I must give you the same energy. I regret I haven't been doing so.

Anyway, I've settled on a date for the deadline. Let's get these articles, comics, and who-knows-what in by January 24th. I know that you guys can do it and I will try to give you my best as well.

Cool Cracker has made an excellent suggestion about having a Staff of the Month in this newspaper and I agree. So, from this point forward, I'll be keeping an eye out for the best member on the team. Each winner will then have his or her name on the Chronicle so that all of PC can see your contributions. I would like to challenge all of you to do your best.

Remember, we're the first PC newspaper and we have to show everyone that we're not a one-shot deal, but a grand section in the entire community. We're expected to be the best. Let's show everyone that we are.

Electric Hero January 10th, 2005 7:51 PM

WHOA! I never saw the first edition! XD *cries and stops* well anyway, I think we are working again. Boss, I'll send you the article when I have then ready (that might be a few days, I'm not oign to be here all day like before, parents watching)

I understand, send it in whenever you can.

Also, you bring up a good point. Members who are just joining don't know what kind of newspaper we run, so I'm going to put the links to the editions on the main thread. Hopefully that will make it easier for our viewers.

HKim January 17th, 2005 8:09 PM

Yes, double posting again. This is really getting to be a bad habit.

Anyway, I'm writing an opinion article regarding the major online pokemon forums. If anyone wishes to write an opinion article, feel free to. It doesn't even have to be about pokemon. Just remember that this forum has certain rules regarding what's appropriate and what's not.
