The War3c Magazine needs your help!

Some of you may or may not know, but I am currently creating a War3c magazine. I am doing this alone, but I may ask for help in the coming months-weeks.

Since I am the only one working on it, I am also short of ideas. As of now, I am gathering all the maps that creators asked me to do arcticles on. That's all I have on my mind.

I need the forumers help on what I should do next. Any sort of arcticles or information you would think be prudent to the magazine, tell me and I'll consider it. I'm not making any promises as I'm only one person, I can't manage everything.

I'm hoping to get one magazine out per month, but that may decrease depending on the amount of time I'm having. It will most likely be one month.

Draco has agreed to give me a Sub-Domain for the magazine, meaning the website that is set up can be used instead of a downloadable format. It will feature the arcticle on the main page, with turn page on the bottom. So you may flip through it as if it were a real magazine.

That's all I can think of at the moment... so please leave suggestions and tell me if this idea is even worth it. -,-j

Thanks, -LM23

Sounds good. Message me if you need some articles written for the first month's issue.

I think a really really cool thing in the mag would be to rate tons of different multiplayer games, and campaigns, give them like a 0 - 100% of goodness, you could have people be reviewers, and write a small review, but, don't only play popular games play, not as popular games as well, maybe from the review the game will get more playment!

I suggest only writing articles on custom maps featured on this site, including the many mods and campaigns. Map makers should submit their mod to be featured in the magazine, and you could decide which ones to write on, or just pick a few random ones.

Edit - Another idea is to write interviews from mod authors.

Sounds nice. If you need any help on art, just ask me. Also I can probably give you a TToR interview too. :P

Let me writing a weekly gardening column

First I shall write on mint gardens - they smell nice and are very resilliant meaning they're perfect for novice horticulturalists

And good luck linkmaster. Sounds really nice.
