Because the supposed elections won't be done for a while, I think it would be good to form an 'Update' committee. Of anyone want's to volunteer and jump in to write something or a part of it, then please, one person can't do this on their own.

- RP News(unassigned)
- Government News(unassigned)
- Random article(unassigned)

I will note, that starting on the next due update, I will be making a formal post on the NS forums and advertising our 'News Network' there as well. Just to get out there.

Gadshack.... I'll make a formal post later. Just think you need to consider the format. Do you want it the way I had it, if so I have an idea. I'll post later.

OK here is my suggestion.

The longest part of doing the update is the RP news, simply because it means having to read all the threads and summarise them. This is fine when your on everyday but recently I've had less time and given a choice between updates or writing RP I choose writing RP, as a result I got more and more behind with the ongoing RP's and it made writing an update difficult.

What I suggest is that we open a thread called "Episode ?? Reviews". We set a deadline, lets say every other Sunday and anyone can post a summary of their RP's there. That then means all someone (I'd be happy to still do this) needs to copy and paste them into the template.

We can then have nominated people do "Government News", and the "Media Round Up" which are usually pretty straight forward to write.

The job then becomes more manageable.

Hows that sound?

As always we would be happy to accept one off things, in the past Ach did a section on meeting the charectors from TIO, I believe Gad once did a recipe corner, so anything goes.

I'm around a fair bit so I'm quite happy to pull it together if Dave's not around (of course in the unlikely event we would need a copy of the template to be accessible)

I do have some ideas to liven up the update as well and I do plan on the continuation of the meeting the characters thing.

Nah that's fine guys, as I say if people send me the updates on RP's I'll format the thing. That's the easy job, its the keeping up to date with them all,espeically the very active ones that makes it hard, if people are doing that for me then the formatting takes like 10 mins.

Which presumably where the idea of (and I apologize for the terminology) 'dropbox' or planning thread comes in- by far the easiest way to do this if everything's submitted in code prior to publication.
