Whilst I was in my study, contemplating the why of the Universe, then realizing how stupid it was, something hit me...
Apparently, it was the B-wing above my computer, man did that smart. But apart from that, it would be nice if we had, you know, traffic.
One way to get that is a constant flow of updates. Now, I'm going to get stoned, tarred, and feathered for this but... maybe if we had some sort of schedule for updates... for example, each one of us do a task for the week. Me and Musical will each write an article, vivi would do a comic, and murmi a filler each week, on a certain day. So essentially four days out of seven each week there would be new matriel. And if, my my, Dex did something, that would be 5. And again, if we could enlist the Googly Minatuar, that would be 6/7. And a day of rest is never bad...
Just one t-h-i-n-g per week. Yeah, I know we are all busy and such, but... I mean, we want people to visit, and actually see our work, right? Therefore we actually need to produce constant work to keep people's attention.
Blah blah, stuff, blah blah...
Yeah, tell me what y'all think.

Hmm...perhaps.. But are we really punctual and/or unlazy enough to keep something like that together? We'd have to really keep on top of it to keep it from dissolving right off the bat.

For something like this to work, we would need a third party observer to penalize the party that has failed to fulfill the obligation of the contract, in this case, the contract being to create material for the website within a time designated by a schedule which was, prior to this agreement, created by the original party. Unless we can get someone who is willing to kick our asses for a fee, and if we're willing to pay someone to kick our asses in the event someone doesn't pull through, there is a low probability of success. However, a possible solution is that we force Viv to do everything, because we might be too lazy to finish our work individually, but it should be no problem to hassle Vivi if we all do it since the work is split four ways, and if we could get Googly Minotaur, five ways.
What I am saying basically is that we could go ahead and try, but someone (i.e. me) will be too lazy to hold up their end of the deal, so the plan would fail in the end. I love collective action problems, don't you?

Wow, you guys actually want my help? Crazy. I would love to write some articles if it weren't for the fact that I am currently hosting three Englishmen (that means they're from England) all this week. And that is a full time job. Going to the Angels game, Disneyland...you know the drill. Anyhow, I'll try to put something together for next week. It has been a while since I've been able to write anything so I believe I'll have something good. Cheerio!

i'll kick your asses for free. lol. dang, it only i wasn't about 3000 miles away. that'd be the perfect job for me.  but yeah, you guys need some orginization.. you'll get more people coming in and paying attention that way. things that are updated a lot generally are more interesting but it's a good idea.. one thing a week isn't really that hard. give them a specific day and then harrass them until its done. or i'll just spam the board until you guys do your jobs. |

One through nine, no maybes, no supposes, no fractions. You can't travel in space, you can't go out into space, you know, without, like, you know, uh, with fractions - what are you going to land on - one-quarter, three-eighths? What are you going to do when you go from here to Venus or something? That's dialectic physics.
As for my article, research is almost finished. I've tried, with much difficulty, to document the massive history of the Super Soaker. From the inventer all the way to the new models. From XP to CPS... all shall be told.

Let ME proofread it, Googly, mwahahahah. *Should I let him proofread it? I mean the guy was in my Senior English class...he can't be that bad. Oh wait, The Dankness was also in there...So I guess he could be that bad. He told me he completely blew his Senior Project, but then again we both dominated in Othello information. As for myself, who owned the world of volcab? I did. Mrs. Brewster ain't got nothin' on me. Oh well, I guess I let him. If I don't, he'll probably shred my Splash Mountain photo I left over at his house. That treacherous bastard! HOW DARE HE EVEN CONCIDER IT!* Edit: It was been sent, Commander! *salutes* |

I proofread Googly's article so it gets my greenlight, so let's try and get it up ASAP.
Anyone else who's writing an article can send it to me for proofreading, if they want.

Yes, yes, Musical says some lame retort and then K-U-A-T says that I have been "moted." How many times has this happened so far? Enough that I can't even count it on one hand (seeing that I lost most of my fingers in 'nam). What they H E double hockey sticks does moted mean ANYWAY? I guess you could say about anything after "Ooooooh! You just got..." and it would sound slightly offensive.
As for you Musical, you didn't correct things as much as you slept and played Mrs. Packman. Biotch, I was kiddin' you no good wannabe-playa tunk!
