Title: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opinion! Post by Stotic on 11/20/03 at 22:54:32 I am curious to know whether Nightmist wants a newspaper to focus around the game itself (ie: evaluations of game progress, observations of the game from different standpoints, interviews, etc.) or a role-playing style (ie: fiction news and stories). Please state your opinion. Yes, we can do both, but I feel it'd be a waste to devote time to something that isn't desired or necessary. And no we have not yet started taking applications for writers. That will be at a later date. |

Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by Sausage on 11/20/03 at 22:59:15 Paper that is focused around the game itself. Featuring a new short story by a Nightmist player every week. (Staff or Nightmist press workers could vote on the best story.) Just a thought. |

Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by Fluffalicious on 11/20/03 at 23:03:23 Both seem nice but I'd like the first option a little more then the other. |

Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by sarah_rain on 11/20/03 at 23:56:05 i think it would be quite interesting and add some more rp to the game i vote yes! |

Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by Sausage on 11/20/03 at 23:58:04 On which one..?? lol |

Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by sarah_rain on 11/21/03 at 00:33:32 either i dont think the rp one will work tho? |

Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by Bean on 11/21/03 at 00:41:20 Why, because you cant roleplay? There are plenty of people out there that would write stories for the paper... IF It came out. |

Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by Momba on 11/21/03 at 01:06:00 I like the first idea myself. As I have stated in the past it would also be interesting to add small notes to each page. Some ideas I had was possibly which crits arch in that month. The person who got to arch could just memo a np writer with the level up and have it posted in the paper. And my personal favorite is the top 10 pkers for the months. Not players, but crits. I know that smart guy JLH can come up with a way to track pks over a period of time. :) |

Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by Stotic on 11/21/03 at 01:18:00 Ok I believe my question was misunderstood. This newspaper already has existed and will exist. What I need to know is if you want it to be a role-playing paper or not. |

Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by Sausage on 11/21/03 at 01:19:36 I'd rather it be a paper about Nightmist itself. |

Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by Issy on 11/21/03 at 01:51:54 I think it should Mix role-play and the game itself inside the newspaper in different 'sections' |

Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by Vodka on 11/21/03 at 01:52:24 Yeah, I agree... stick to the realistic stuff. |

Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by Mystic_Ninja on 11/21/03 at 01:52:25 i think an rp newspaper would be awesome. agreed for me 8) |
||
|
Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by Thenobleone on 11/21/03 at 01:53:30 I would like a role play paper. There could be stories about adventures and occurences in cities ect. |
||
|
Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by Deadly Criminals on 11/21/03 at 01:54:27 I'dlike to be one the Nightmist reporters and i think it should be Rp cuz their aint many rpging done in this game thats suposse to be rpging. |
||
|
Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by Vanilla on 11/21/03 at 01:56:30 I say it should be a non-rp newspaper. It'd be more fun to actually read factual stuff instead of just stories. |
||
|
Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by extreme_fighter on 11/21/03 at 01:56:50 Yes I do believe a newspaper would be great, Maybe there could be a new tip each week to help the new players like maybe a secret mumble for the new thieves or a secret way to get somewhere. Just a suggetion. |

Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by Scotsman on 11/21/03 at 01:58:01 I think for a successful paper to run it would need: 1) A whole lot of writers 2) Stories of all different kinds 3) Stories that wont bore the pants off you 4) Mosh winner / Boss killer page??? Well anyway im tired so im away to bed c ya. |

Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by Knuckles on 11/21/03 at 02:38:51 I think that would be a swell idea Stotic because then we could get in on all the gossip like who got banned and and what alts have been sold :D |

Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by Bean on 11/21/03 at 04:29:13 Right, and you know that for sure... ::) Jeeze... people these days Anywho, I think It should be MOSTLY facts about the game etc, etc. But we need stories or thats gonna be one bloody boring newspaper... I think It should be a mix, but mostly facts. One story per every... 2-5 editions. P.S:I know I said It should be mostly facts twice.... heh... |

Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by Gosu Exor on 11/21/03 at 04:44:27 Nah i dont know it for sure.But im PRETTY sure most people could care less about reading the stories. Jeeze! people these days! |

Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by Decept on 11/21/03 at 05:27:35 with out reading all the post I personly think its a waste of time if you think ppl are going to take the time to read it... some hard core nm players might but as a hole I dout that any one will I might for a while then it will just become like every thing else old... just my oppinion ;D |

Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by Snowy on 11/21/03 at 06:05:10 oh! that ll be really great!! make it real but 1 rp story in every edition, would be really nice, if i get bored with training i'd visit that pierre, and his pub in rh pull out my newspaper... mmm .. ;D ;D ;D that ll be really great.

Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by dognapot on 11/21/03 at 06:19:31 i still got a pass. i'll write what i want to write goddamnit! on a serious note, it'd be boring having just one or the other. therefore, make atleast two pages-atleast one with a realistic slant to it, and atleast one other for strictly RP (or PRP, where you slyly play as if you were roleplaying to hide your derision for RP). |

Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by Raylen on 11/21/03 at 21:21:27 Keep it real, in as much as a game can be real ;) All we want is the gossip, like who's banned, most PKs is a great idea, if anyone bought a cobalt etc :D But i agree with the general consensus that there should be one RP item in there each edition :) |

Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by jadedgothgirl on 11/24/03 at 06:35:21 I'd vote news centered around the game itself. Love the stories submitted by players idea. I have one to add of my own, a comic strip! Add a little humor to the game. |

|
Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by Bean on 11/27/03 at 00:43:58 I would apply, But Im too stupid to write stories or facts... I would mess up, and they would have horrible errors all over the place :'( |

Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by muhammed_ali on 12/02/03 at 05:36:56 It would be interesting to do the interviewing an real nm stuff rather then the roleplaying |

Title: Re: The Nightmist Associated Press needs your opin Post by alone on 12/02/03 at 12:42:48 I apoligise for not reading all the coments posted. But I'd like to see it as a mix of both. Actually events told through reports written in a Role-Play style. So, not like: And Kalypso killed the CG today, again. But, something more like: After another grueling battle, Kalypso, the Wild Child of The Resistance came out on top, showing her superior power and will over all others. I watched the battle from the towers of the Gnoll fort.... etc etc Please excuse the example. Possibly that's how it was already planned? But that's just how I'd like to see it :) Hope it turns out well. EDIT: on 11/20/03 at 22:59:15, Sausage wrote:
Lovely idea, brilliant :D *hopes Stotic reads my application again* |
