Gossip magazine/tabloid idea?

[hintcoinplz]

So after some discussion on plurk, I was wondering if people would like the idea of a monthly gossip magazine/tabloid/newspaper being published and distributed along with Mayfield's regular newspaper. It could potentially have some news, and other sections you'd find in a regular newspaper such as:

-A basic rundown of what's happening in Mayfield
-Advice column
-Puzzle section
-Gossip section
-Crime reports
-Horoscope section
-Idk cartoon section?

That's pretty much what I have so far. I figured people could sign up to write and submit their own articles, and I could post a monthly log for people to post their responses to different sections and reactions from readers. Would people in interested in this idea? And since this is a very, very rough draft I'd love to hear more suggestions on how this should work.

Oh that's an awesome idea.





Harley wants to write an advice column

Harley advice column would be amazing.

I figured I'd let people just pick out their own sections they wanna write for with no real restrictions, since this will be for laughs instead of being all that serious :3b

[motheringnation]

It would be the best advice ever.

Of course there's a puzzle section XD Sounds good though

Luke would write angry letters until there was one, so there might as well be one.

[unexculpable]

Yes. I love this idea.

Excellent 8D

Haha, I don't think my characters would have any decent contributions (Susan might yell at students in the Classifieds), but this is a great idea! How are you planning to get this done IC-wise?

[hintcoinplz]

Not sure yet! I figured either Luke or Rainbow Dash would ICly suggest it and go from there (although Luke would either rage quit or be incredibly annoyed by what's being submitted). They'd need access to some kind of printing press and a way to deliver it to everyone.

From there I'd just set up a monthly log at the beginning of the month (later if there's an event) for people to post their articles and maybe a section for reader reactions.

I think a bunch of people have regained computers if you want to try that route. It's probably easier to get a printer than a printing press, aha, although it wouldn't look as cool as a real newspaper.

[hintcoinplz]

That'd work too! ...Someone would have to show Luke how computers work hehe.

Rin has a printer! It's how she keeps making posters out of fan art :D

This sounds awesome.

Bella might be interested in writing. She was on her school's newspaper before she came here. c:

Crowe can deliver ACTUAL papers now, how about that! I like this idea. I'm trying to think of a way one of my characters can contribute. Maybe Elmer can write an advice column that's totally pointless, as he pretty much tells everyone to smile more.
