Hive Newspaper Possibility

[The World Is Flat]

I didnt know it was brought up.

maybe its because i am just so... like... popular.


Sure you can, what do you wanna do Watchman?

 

[Tleno]

Few months ago? These ideas were comming out like constantly, I had it posted few times as already mentioned, but only the TWIF manages to give this project a big enough push for it to actually keep on going. Others had just some unpolished idea. TWIF is soon to finish the basics and he got a team ready.

Okay, can I take the icons then?

Write articles. Serious and not-so-serious articles. I could also write a "rants" section or something like that.

 

[Grey Nightmare]

Popular... kk
Thought so.
That actually has - a somewhat sickening - sense to it...

 

[The World Is Flat]

xD I am sooo popular, its so easy for me to get things going with my CELEB status. ^^

Sure watchman, I think a friday release of the newspaper would be nice, gives me time to write a intro/pilot, and all you guys time to get somthing rolling in your sections.

We've also confirmed a little comedy section.

So I should write an article by friday? That's not gonna be a problem, but what should it be about? Something funneh or something serious?

 

[Tleno]

Wait what? A comic and icon of the week must be ready for this friday? Sure.

Oh, and articles should be allowed to be wrotten by both... oh wait, I'm starting to start repeat... damn, I can't even complain about repeating without repeating...

I wouldn't say it's popularity, it's more the fact TWIF managed to give a push for the project, not just give a suggestion. And how did he managed to give that push? With his popularity, obviously!

Oh, and will we have the inteviews of Hive celebrities? That can be easily done in Hive chat with PMs, you just need a person't agreement, then you post the most intresting questions/answers.

 

[The World Is Flat]

You could start with interviewing TWIF. lol. sure, sure you can if it floats your boat.

 

[Tleno]

Erm it's really lateup here, so made I'll be able to inteview you later... or maybe some else will inteview you... man this job is getting hard already, I should get an assistant, a vacation and a raise. And a promotion too.

 

[The World Is Flat]

i was kidding tleno. gl/hf with whatever you wanna do, just get it to me by friday lulz.

Hmm, what should i write about?

 

[WherewolfTherewolf]

Wasn't someone doing something like this already?

 

[Fussiler1]

ill see what i can do

 

[The World Is Flat]

Meow.

 

[Geazergimli2]

Hope the logo is gonna look tight!

 

[Direfury]

Just get a few honey combs spinnin' around eachother, with a big ol' H in the mild.

 

[Deolrin]

I always disliked this way to think of the "Hive Workshop"; as a Bee Hive. I'd rather have it a Zerg Hive or anything at all, just not a stupid bee hive.

 

[WherewolfTherewolf]

I in general think hive imageries are kinda dumb

And it's not like you have tons of people coming together to work on one big project anyway, mainly small groups of people working on individual projects, and then tons of people spammin' the map development board with projects that will never be finished.

 

[Direfury]

honey comb is simpler than a bunch of creepy Zerg flesh forming some kind of... shape.

But if you want to think of Hive as one giant melting pot, try a large 'yin yang' symbol, with more portions depicting all of our different types of resources.

 

[Deolrin]

And you know what's even better?
Plain old wooden, night elf "architecture" or tree bark for that matter with an orange "H" embalmed on top.

 

[The World Is Flat]

Well i'm no 2d art god, find somone else to make it fancy D:

Needs a WC style to it. I suggest a wooden version of the Main Menu chains that support the UI.

[Insert index section for the rest of the paper, model of the week, skin, map, icon, ect.]

[Insert other random stories below]


Somthing liek this? albeit with better formatting? or a pdf, a rss?

I like this, despite the fact I can't read half of it, but keep up the good work.

 

[Devine]

Latin? Seriously?
Nerds.

 

[The World Is Flat]

WELL SOMONE DO A LOGOH.

and devine, your a nerd, get over yourself.

 

[Grey Nightmare]

Get one formatted like the contest title text, like this but I couldn't replicate the exact colour/tone/quality;

You don't need a big fancy thing, smart and simple

 

[Ganondorf]

No... no... no... IT NEEDS TO BE COMPLICATED! ADD MOAR! ADD MOAR! ADD MOAR! ADD MOAR USELESS STUFF, don't you understand?

Nah JK, I like it how you swapped the color gradient scheme (down-up = dark-light)

 

[Geazergimli2]

Thats a bit to simple... not to be the artist or anything.. but i really picture something cool going around the text.. but anything is good atm
It does kinda remind me of the websites font though... so i guess my 2nd opinion is that it fits the site well hehe

 

[The World Is Flat]

Kewl enough for me. I kind of already made a logo/format but this should find a home.

 

[-Peper-]

Wow, kewl innovative idea!
Maybe, gossip or hot news section?
I lol'd about anarchianbedlam got arrested.
I dunno much how to format it good, with tables each news/resource columns?

 

[Miss_Foxy]

Being able to ask for a space to post it in the News Discussion Thread would be nice though.

 

[Tleno]

erm people, are our cotests and stuff like hat have the same style as this title. So this will blend in more Hiveishly. And where you've seen a newspapaer with fancy title? This is not a magazine you know...

No worries about free space, it's a thread not real newspaper.

Oh, and we should like get a social group or something... to simplify everything...

 

[The World Is Flat]

^^ ditto, its simple, clean, and fun.


NOOOW, i've kinda already got a way to display it, so please, everyone who wants to write, get it to me by thursday.

 

[Tleno]

I'll decide which icon will be the icon of the week on thursday.
Velj said cmoic will be done for tommorow or today. Oh and TWIF, what model we should use as you?

 

[The World Is Flat]

... me D:

goblin alchemist. with money.

idk what customs exemplify me.

 

[Direfury]

What's this about models? I'ma accept any excuse to make something badass.

 

[The World Is Flat]

Yes models.

good for you, i'm glad you like excuses to make badass things.


luckily iam laready modeling myself.

 

[AIagremm]

Why do you think about the name so much... aint it obvious?! It has to be named... The Hive! =D
Okay I know what you're thinking there!

Anyway seems like a nice idea... but what about featured social groups?
I could make some articles... and terrains! Dun dun duuuuuun!

 

[The World Is Flat]

kewl kewl, if anyone wants to make ANYTHING just vm or pm it to me by thursday.

 

[LucasMapurunga]

Nice idea ! "The Hive Times" does sound like something serious, don't you think ?

If this goes on, I would like to take part in it, if possible

 

[The Reborn Devil]

"Something Else" is obviously the best name. Any oldfag can agree to that. You newfags don't know what SE means to us, but it was pure awesome when it existed.

 

[Skycraft]

this.

 

[Tleno]

You nostalgyfags. That waas nothing else but some Troll Vatican on a face of our Offtopic Discussion.
It got removed, and this project has nothing to do with SE, so forget about this name...

 

[The Reborn Devil]

SE is the essence of win and awesomeness. SE trancends your very imagination. You cannot fathom its staggering beauty.

And no, SE is not removed, it's only visible to the staff.

 

[Tleno]

And no, SE is not removed, it's only visible to the staff.

So that's where you guys hide all porn.

Talking about it, we could actually make comic about that... next time maybe....

 

[Skycraft]

Who's going to design it?

 

[-Peper-]

Make a comic about THW and the users! That would be so cool!

 

[Tleno]

Exactly. we're making short (3-6 pictures) terraining-based comics about Hivers. First one, I can reveal to you, is gonna be about Damnit. Had to edit for you not to find out.

 

[-Peper-]

Lol, your avatar has told me about you character model.
Either a peasant or Tleno.

 

[Garfield1337]

And how would users be represented? People change avatars...

 

[Aeroblyctos]

Yea and I would be the one lurking in the chat saying sometimes hi and making unbelievable amount of stupid requests and doing that same fucking campaign for years. What the hell man?
