Oh my god guys, I'm so sorry! I'm sorry for not being around lately, I just...Uh...Umm, nevermind. But, well, is there anything you guys wanted me to do/I already said I could do? My mind's been kinda foggy lately from all the...stuff...going on in my life...So, uh, yeah. Sorry, again.

Also, on an unrelated note, I took the quiz. I got Yuzuru.

Are you ok though?
We don't want to throw you out or anything, but if the stuff is still going on, you could take a break.
Are you sure that you can like, hand things in in time this time?=S

I uh...Umm...That's a good question. The situation currently is not resolved, and I don;t know when it will be. But I'm trying to get more involved in this anyway.

So, anyway, is there anything you guys think you want me to do? As in another column or something? 'Cause I could crank out one of those whenever, if you think my first one went well enough.

Anyone have any idea what I should write for my next article. I'm beginning to get into the satire thing. Any topics or news stories I should twist into unfathomable horrors? Or something simple that has to do with YCM that I can make up a story that has to do with it?

People could pay for us to run 'commercials' for their RPs or Clubs or w/e.

What are you good at/sections you frequent: I frequent Anime/Manga and General, mostly. And I have been told by many that I have a talent for writing.
Why should we pick you?: Because writing. ALL OVER THE PLACE. I'm capable of finding roundabout ways to succeed at a task at hand rather easily, I've noticed.
Activity: I'm usually on everyday. Just...lurking... ._.
Timezone: Pacific Time Zone.[/color]


Because Aggro.

How many yes's does it take to get in?


Also, I can easily keep this alive by throwing out seemingly random but still on topic topics all over. xD

[color=#0000CD]Well so far my no or just plain lack of care has been all that's needed to deny a person completely. ASnd you have Agro's support too so there's that slight bonus.[/color]

I repeat my question again, who will be the host next time?
Spike or Yuzuru?

I'm inclined to say Spike personally, just to give a chance to less-known people. But Yuzuru seems set on turning it into a weekly thing and has already suggested a plan on how to keep it up. I'm fairly sure he will stick with it, so I'd say Yuzuru this time. Spike maybe afterwards.

Other opinions?o_o

Right then.
I'm fine with you making another one of these comedy bits, although I don't know if you're in the mood for it.
But do know that we expect you to hand something in then.

Meh, not sure if serious, but I support blowing Shard's return out of proportion.

I'm fine with letting him in.
Enrise seems to have disappeared again, but I still...think we shouldn't really discourage certain people to join in the future.

I'd like to do a comedy thing. It'll help "bring me out of my funk", so to speak. So, does anyone have any suggestions? I could form an "Advice Column" type thing, and people could PM me about a problem they're having. Then, I'd give them both a humorous response and a serious response. Of course, anyone could remain anonymous if they wished.

[color=#0000CD]I know what you're getting at since I've thought about it and it's definitly a tough decision but I don't want to burn through our best members (and Agro) right away and I do want to give the lesser known ones a chance.[/color]

[color=#0000CD]Are you sure? He should be able to but I'm a tad bit worried since I got more attention in the last bit than he did.[/color]

[color=#0000CD]WAY ahead of you. Don't worry though. Mako should make a great addition. Hell, Agro used Mako's video game reviewing format if that makes a difference.[/color]

[color=#EE82EE]Don't doubt that, but personally, I like having some variety in any team I'm working in and having experienced and less-known members.[/color][color=#EE82EE] But it's fine, if no less-known members want to join us anyway.x|[/color]

[color=#EE82EE]We could go for innovation and maybe give every show a theme, or let people who usually do something do something else?[/color]
[/quote]

Also, made up this list.
It's just a large mish-mash of ideas that came up everywhere, just feel free to say so if some of them suck.

[b][u]Overall ideas[/u][/b][/font][/size][list]
[*][size=3][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]mods and rage faces[/font][/size]
[/list]
[size=3][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Eh...I lost the document with them, but Black and I [/font][/size]were talking on MSN and somehow compared the mods to rage faces. Maybe something that could give people a laugh and that we could all do together or so.[list]
[*][size=3][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Pokémon walkthrough[/font][/size]
[/list]
[size=3][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Dunno, they’re interesting when a game just comes out, but otherwise not sure.=| Someone who’s funny could make a series out of it, so people have something to wait for every week. Hell, I could do it since I'm a n00b who packages teams together that just look cute or so, but that's it.

[u][b]Now things I think I could do[/b][/u][/font][/size][list]
[*][size=3][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]YCM Weekly cast quiz (same as the mod quiz, but with us). The YCM riddles are still an option too[/font][/size]
[*][size=3][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]the 5 best/worst of K-Pop[/font][/size]
[/list]
[size=3][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]IDK, a more educational article about the good and bad sides?:/ Bad side would be for example South Korea's silly beauty standards.[/font][/size][list]
[*][size=3][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]uh...style of the week / review of the anime character's design?[/font][/size]
[/list]
[size=3][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]Silly suggestion, but decided to bring everything up that I thought of.=| Not sure if people would care about that. Like, at all. I run a Japanese fashion blog (updated rarely though :'D) and follow many others, so I could...look up some snapshots and talk about...what people are wearing.:/ Or anime character designs. Meh. That's one of the few things I'm good for.:'D Just tell me if you think about something where Opal could come in.:'D

[u][b]Other ideas that were mentioned before[/b][/u][/font][/size][list]
[*][size=3][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]advertisments/sponsors (what Spike said, they were mentioned before, but never done)[/font][/size]
[*][size=3][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]YCM couples[/font][/size]
[*][size=3][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]DN commentary[/font][/size]
[*][size=3][font=arial,helvetica,sans-serif]lottery[/font][/size]

[color=#0000CD]Not too sure...[/color]

So apparently ads has been shot down and trampled into the dirt. Oh well.

I'm fine with hosting the one after the next one, as long as I get to host soon :D

[color=#0000CD]Well if Spike says so I can't really argue.[/color]

Oh, I could do a Pokémon Walkthrough too, if you want. It wouldn't take too much out of my schedule, as I would probably just do a Marilland-type walkthrough (albeit a bit more sarcastic). After all, my advice column wouldn't be too difficult to make anyway. And just for a heads-up, when will my crap be due?

...Um... W-well, I've been learning Pokemon lately... The metagame and all that, but...

I'm not very good yet... ^^''

I understand the concepts, but... I might be interested in writing Pokemon things like Black has been doing for Yugioh if you all would want that... :'o
