Just so you guys know - I've been working hard getting issue 2 printed. I've pretty much done all the articles that are going to be in this issue, they are in the system but I was thwarted from printing at the last moment by a tiny bug (and Themodem has gone off to bed by this point, with it being 10 minutes past midnight). I'll ask Themodem to try and fix the bug tomorrow evening alternatively it'll definately get fixed on Friday after which printing is literally a case of clicking a button.

For the issue 3 I will be trying to get everyone to use the now fully working system to submit their articles-  this will mean that I can publish by the much simpler method than having to move everything from the forum to the system. I realise that some people have attempted to use the system in the past and I'm grateful for their patience, I'm asking for that patience again when you submit your next article.

Issue 2 will not contain any of the stub articles - basically because of a lack of time on my part and because I feel that with some extra time those articles could be expanded into proper articles instead of effectively thrown away as incomplete ones. It's also an issue of time, I have no real time to edit and mold people's writings, this is a case of getting the damn things printed and out there as quickly as possible.

Don't be alarmed if you spot any errors in Issue 2 - before we announce it we'll have access to an edit feature, allowing us to correct mistakes made and improve things.

Cracking news - ok, let's get this thing on, folks!

Sounds really smashing. Though i would beg of you that you would see if it would be possible to put the "Murder!" stub in at the end of an article for example? This article may seem rather uninteresting and plain, but the thing is it's a prelude to an ongoing serial killer plot, and it the plan was to do it "Zodiac" style (for anyone who've seen the movie/read the book). Therefore it would be quite vital to get the plot going to get this first notice in as well.
But if it cant be done i understand that.

Could the stubs not be copy/pasted together into a single document with subheaders used for titles?

I realise that some of the stubs could be put together into a bigger article - however I feel that they aren't currently of good enough quality to be printed. Basically I would rather see them expanded and improved and placed in a future issue than stuff into Issue 2.

We have more than enough material and the stubs aren't time sensitive.

I will try and find a place for the Murder! article if it's important it goes in. Probably the last page looking at things at the moment.

If Themodem is free to fix the issue bug tonight then expect to see the issue up very soon - then I'll be asking people to read it and check it for errors which we'll have to fix later.
