I'm expanding upon the idea. Currently BlizShadow is the Newscaster for Sonic information, but I'm thinking about making more people as newscasters for different subjects. I want a Newscaster for Video Games, Music, Movies, etc. Anyone up to the task? |

Hmm, I can perhaps do this since I tell all the info about Sonic Unleashed on the Sonic Turbine. But Blitz taken that job here(always figuring out the info before I do ;-;). But can you be more detailed about other things? Like as in video games, we tell you ALL video games news or about a certain game, etc. Same goes for music and stuff. So more details? |

Hmmm I never really thought about that. Maybe all the news for one system? So you don't have to search the internet for all different system news. For Music, I'd say for all types of music, because there are just too many. If you have some suggestions, that would be appreciated. |

I'm usually up-to-date on some modern rock, and while I'm still interested in the music, I'm not sure I'd be getting enough news to qualify as a newscaster. But'cha know I'd be keeping up with Coheed & Cambria.  I suppose we'd need more than one for music in each general genre - Country, Rap, Rock, Pop, and so on. As well, for gaming, surely someone would be up to the task for... "Big" game announcements. You know it'd be impossible to cover everything, but someone who can keep us up with the general stuff. Same goes for music. Movies shouldn't be so hard. Big movies come out at a steady rate, so any movie fanatic should be able to keep up with it somewhat. I'm guessing that's all we need. Other stuff moves too slow/too fast/isn't big enough to have a newscaster dedicated to it. I dunno much about the comic universe, but ehh... |

Isn't this is what a website should provide? |

Everyone working on that was flaky. Nothing got done. So this is our alternative route. We don't need a website. |

If you need me to do anything, I'm up for it. Just PM me what you want me to write about, at what time interval. I could give you a sample of what I'm capable of if you were to send me some sort of test-assignment. I would be particularly interested in doing something like a weekly book review (or reporting on promising events in the publishing industry--whatever), or perhaps something to do with current events? Bottom line, I'd be more interested in something literary or gossip/politically based, than say, videogames. Preference stated, I'm up for anything that would be useful, assuming I'm capable of establishing some familiarity with it. Edited by Yves, Aug 5 2008, 06:34 PM.

"or reporting on promising events in the publishing industry". If you want to do that, that would be cool. I'm not sure how many people here are interested in that, but it should be able to draw in a new crowd. So I guess you can do that? I can make you the newscaster rank. However you want to go about it is up to you, whatever you think is the best way to do it, but put it in the SB Library, where it goes.

Can I ask that do the staff decide who is a Newscaster, because I have a few things about somebody (not naming) having such a position. |

Double post because the edit button isn't showing up. Why are they listed as staff? By staff I mean forum moderators. Is this just a thing to get instant promotion? |

Yup. The same thing happened with the SB CIA. People would be considered staff, so alot of people wanted to become one, and ended up not doing their jobs. |
  Steam ID is PixelParagon. I have Garry's Mod and Team Fortress 2. If you've got Steam and/or either of these games, ADD ME NOAW | |

Sorry, but unfortunately, Sonic news is my territory; a responsibility I haven't been too keen on sharing. XP |
