I'm displayed as a New Scratcher...

Why not make a new Gmail account for article purposes only, and not share your real email?

I already made my new one.  hmm

Have you noticed that pretty much every (if not all) newspapers on Scratch are Scratch-related? That's not a bad thing. It's not a bad thing at all! But I was thinking that we could make Scratch's first non-Scratch-related newspaper, in this case, video game-related. In a nutshell - a video-game-related newspaper released every 2 weeks!

PLEASE READ - We are going to start writing the newspaper in 2 days (Wednesday, November 16, 2011), but you can still recruit after that, for future issues!

If you'd like to join, feel free to!
Also, if you any questions regarding anything about the newspaper, feel free to ask.
ALSO - Any job that hasn't yet been taken will be filled in by me, All4one.
AND... - You can apply for as much jobs as you want, as long as you think you can do that many jobs.
PLEASE NOTE THAT - We'll probably only talk about games under the M rating (on ESRB rating terms), so as to stay family-friendly for all Scratchers.  smile

If you decide to work for this newspaper, be sure to read all the posts in this topic, to stay up to date on what's going on.  big_smile

Co-President #1 - All4one (The Co-President is basically one of two people in charge of the whole newspaper, who oversee the production of things, and makes sure everybody's doing their job right and everybody's got their article ready for the next issue. A co-president will also substitute for anybody who can't do their job for a certain amount of time.)

Co-President #2 - scratchlive (See above description.)

Editor - All4one (Title is self-explanatory.  tongue )

Substitute Editor - JackERY (If the main editor can't write the newspaper in time for when the new issue should be released, then the substitute editor will fill in for that person.)

Substitute Substitute Editor - kayybee (If both the editor and the substitute editor can't edit a certain issue, than it's up to the Substitute Substitute Editor to edit the paper. XD)

Main Article Writer #1 - All4one (The main article writer is the writer who...well...writes the main articles.  tongue  The main articles are the stories that will be written in the newspaper (eg. "Super Mario 3D Land Kicks off the Holiday Season"), which includes the front page story, as well. There will be more than one. Three is the total amount.)

Main Article Writer #2 - FallenIce (See above description.)

Main Article Writer #3 - ja8eri (See above description.)

Main Article Writer #4 - Gamefan888 (See above description.)

Main Article Writer #5 - The1UP (See above description.)

Main Article Writer #6 - locker99 (See above description.)

Reviewer #1 - maxdoss (This is pretty much the person who will write the reviews for video games, preferrably recent ones or ones that go with the stories in the issue. If you can't think of a video game to review, then I'll be more than happy to suggest one for you. You can review more than one game per issue, three is the maximum amount. Also, when reviewing, be sure to rate the game on a scale of 1-10. These people will reviewer recently-released or at least ones of current game systems, so as not to collide with the new "Retro Reviewer" section.)

Reviewer #2 - PerspectiveDesigns (See above description.)

Glitch Master - ja8eri (I'm not really sure about this one, but there could be an article talking about hilarious or just interesting glitches in video games. The person who will write that article will be called "The Glitch Master".)

"What Other People Are Saying" - gerbils800 (The writer for this article will basically talk about what other people think about recently-released video games. By "other people", I mean anybody outside the newspaper staff. For example, other Scratchers, the gaming press, or even just players who buy the game!)

Cheats and Secrets - jslomba (I think the title is self-explanatory)

Comic Template Writer #1 - ja8eri (This is the person who will make templates for the comics for issues, and then I'll be drawing it myself and coloring it in on the computer for the issue.)

Comic Template Writer #2 - (n/a) (See above description)

Comic Artist - All4one (This is the person that will draw and color in other people's templates on their computer. This person might also make their own comics if they wish.

Cover Page Artist - PerspectiveDesigns (This person will draw templates for the cover page, and then the editor will make a cover page for an issue fromt hat template.)

Music Supplyer #1 - ToxicQuillz (This is the person who will supply music to be put in the "jukebox" inside the project. It must be video game music!)

Music Supplyer #2 - ja8eri (See above description.)

Minecraft Corner - mario9705 (The person who writes the article about ALL things Minecraft.)

iPhone and iPad Game Section - JJROCKER (The person who writes about recent games for the iPhone and iPad and such. We can try to come up with a better name for the section.  tongue )

Retro Reviewer - LordFawful (The person who reviews older games, such as ones for the NES, Sega Genesis, SNES, etc.)

ISSUES RELEASED -

Issue #1 (Featured - 12/11/11)
Issue #2
Issue #3

Can I join? I have a new job I could do.

If so, I could do top 10s, like the 10 best mario games, the 10 worst wii games etc etc etc

Here are some ideas I have (highlight)

Top 10 Mario Games (not including smash bros games)
10. Super Mario Bros
9. Super Mario Bros 3
8. Super Mario World
7. Super Mario RPG
6. Super Mario Sunshine
5. Super Mario 64
4. Super Mario Galaxy
3. Super Mario 3D Land
2. Super Mario Galaxy 2
1. Paper Mario TTYD


Top 10 Wii Games
10. Super Paper Mario
9. Zack and Wiki
8. Donkey Kong Country Returns
7. Mario Kart Wii
6. Zelda: Twilight Princess
5. Super Mario Galaxy
4. (Tie) Metroid Prime 3 + Metroid Other M
3. Zelda Skyward Sword (Filler, haven't actually played)
2. Super Mario Galaxy 2
1. Wii Party (XD)


Hope you like my idea. Please say in your mag that this is MY OPINION and any complaints should go to me. Thank you  smile

Re: Gamer's Delight - Scratch's first non-Scratch-related newspaper

Um, could you please not leave a million lines in between and not quote the longest post ever? it'd help save scrolling.


I got it! I could be the "critical reviewer". I point out small flaws within the game. for example, in super mario galaxy, there is a flying star. it teaches you how to use it in a purple coin level. you can also use it in the comet observatory. but what's the point of it if it's not going to be used in a real level?

or substitute works too.

Re: Gamer's Delight - Scratch's first non-Scratch-related newspaper

Oh hai.  tongue  I know I've been pretty inactive here lately. Pretty much the whole of Gamer's Delight has been inactive. I realized I'm way too busy to take the job of both president and editor of Gamer's Delight, so I'm resigning from both (again. XD).

Still, I want the legacy of the newspaper to continue, and I shall attempt to find somebody that fits both jobs.

In the meantime, I'll still write for the newspaper. I'll continue being a Main Article Writer, and I also might create some new sections for myself such as "Out Shopping" (a guide for what games to get at Nintendo shops such as the Wii Shop Channel and Nintendo eShop) and maybe a Walkthrough section.

So, yes, right now, production of Gamer's Delight is once more postponed, but will resume shortly once I find a new president/co-president and editor.

Oh... feh... gah...mmmrrr... I... never mind... not after only one issue! ONE ISSUE?! That was it?! Only one issue of fame?! When you find the right person... I will promise not to let Gamer's Delight down. I will continue to strive to keep Gamer's Delight going!

Re: Gamer's Delight - Scratch's first non-Scratch-related newspaper

Apologies for not being active recently, I've been very busy and haven't had much time to go on scratch. I should be able to come on Scratch more now and should be more active on the forums  smile

Yeah. I was writing a Pokemon newspaper at the time they were developing it, and the front-page story was called 'A new Isshu!' My friend said I spelled 'issue' wrong...

Re: Gamer's Delight - Scratch's first non-Scratch-related newspaper

Actually... XD I don't think I should resign from president/co-president. I'll stick with that, and I'll also still be cover page artist and writer for articles. Still, I don't have a lot of time to edit the paper every 2 weeks, and I'm considering some select Scratchers as the new editor.

I believe production of Gamer's Delight will resume shortly.
