Should I make a Scratch Newspaper?

I know what you are going to say: Stuff like this always fails. But I don't care!

I want to do this. I just want to know- would you read it, or help with it?


Here is my idea for pages:
A: Front Page News
B: Upcoming Projects/TBGs and other News
C: Collaboration and Jobs for Hire
D: Interviews
E: Ads
F: Fun and Games (Comics, Crosswords, Word Searches, Jokes and Riddles)

For the mods:
I promise I will not gossip or disobey the terms of use.
I will not write about anybody without their permission.
There will be two topics only: A 'Latest News and Archive' one, and a 'Help and Submission' topic.

no way

He says, 'Well, how would I know?' I say, 'You started this.'"

Sure. You can find me good things to make articles about- remember to ask for permission!

I also need help with writing the thing up, and coming up with a name...

Or you can make comics if you want!

Write about my uber successful Elements: The Game series  tongue

JK, I guess. I'd read it, if it was decent unlike most of the Scratch newspapers.

Re: Should I make a Scratch Newspaper?

I like Scratcher's Digest. Thanks!



Okay. Can you make a comic? Make it short. Like a typical newspaper comic size. Three or four panels.

Give your series a name and it can become a regular!

Do you want to be interviewed? I will if you want.

Just fill in your awnswers:

What inspired you to make 'Elements: The Game'?

Just how successful is this series?

What is it like having a successful game?

So how many times has this game been on the front page?

Was it hard to program?

Would you consider it your best game? Most well known? Your signature game?

Any other thoughts?

That, because stuff like this always fails. Hopefully this one won't. ;P

Well I'll make a poll:

What do YOU want to see in a newspaper? What makes it successful?
A. Funny comics and good games.
B. Decent news and interviews
C. The user allowing me to ad any article or ad I suggest
D. Other (Please state)

You may vote for as many as you want.




Guys, I just thought- For each issue there could be Project of the Week, Art of the Week, TBG of the Week, and maybe even Fakemon of the Week!

All on the front page. Scratchers could vote for what they think it should be.

Well I'd like to make my own one... more of a newspaper then a magazine.

But I must say I am a fan of your magazine! Great work!

B, C, and D 'cause I'd like to add to B that you shouldn't add news that everyone knows about like other newspapers do.
