You mean my graphic novel idea? We could come up with a begining and then invite people to submit where they think the story should go. Then my collegues and I could pick the best one (every month or so - or a page in the mag) and then illistrate it. Also put it up on the MIST graphic novel website (if that was going to happen as well). So we would have an interactive graphic novel that made you guys feel more involved with the storyline and also keep interest going form mag to mag. It would also mean that on one would know the outcome of the story until right up to that last.
Depending on the hours you set, most of the FoG regulars wouldnt

Why dont you have a word with Grix/Meka and the others who write the stories. See if they can start one off, but it can only be added to between 11pm and 9am or something. At the end of the week you could give a prize of best addition, or most descriptive writing or some such thing.

Thing is, the story would have to be well thought out before it was started, it would need a bit of planning.

Yeah, the lateness could be it but if you look at FOG they are still posting at this time of night. There needs to be a definate time that people switch form FOG to MIST.
Also getting the Americans into the forum might help (as it it still thier daytime!).
Also with FOG their is a more solid theme - future of gaming whereas MIST doesn't stand for a theme. So it is an open theme and if regulars are used to FOG then they will stay there unless we push MIST
Yes I'm staff. I have two sign ins and haven't got around to asking the internet boys to change both of my status. My other one has Staff on it - honest - check out 'kendozod' not 'The Kendozod'

Are you staff then?
How come your tag thing says 'newbie' and not staff?

Maybe it needs a Tony offering a game/filmaday competition on how to promote the MIST forum. I came up with ideas (see previous posts) but those were just off the cuff stuff. I haven't been given time at work (as it is mag typesetting time) to really think about it - apart from asked to design the banner. It all depends on how much time and resorces Tony wants on this forum.
With the awards - who would administer the thing? Not sure if the effort put in gets enough results (ie atracting people to the site) out.

Have you ever thought why this forum hasnt really taken off?
Could it be because everyone is in bed? Also, most of the people who post on here seem to be school kids who cant stay up late because their parents wont let them?
I know that probably sounds really negative, buti didnt mean it to.
