That works for me :) Of course, if you ever feel like you can't do it on a particular week, let me know and I'll step in.

Roundup is up and round again. There's enough news that Tres's post can have its own glorious newspost in the days to come.

I've mentioned the Web Series because it's getting a lot of coverage, I'll be doing a longer post about the Kickstarter in the next couple of days so we should work out timing with your article Tres :)

It's kind of on the fence tbh, best discussed in that other thread we have for it :monster:

EDIT: And yeah will post Kickstarter thing in one or two days, then yours can come the day after?

The Kotaku articled which the new roundup links to is from 2012, and I think it's been featured in a previous roundup :) That's not necessarily a problem; I just wasn't sure if you were aware of it.

Edit: and that 30% discount, which is the top story, has already ended! Someone pointed it out on Facebook.

Booooo hisss, fail on my part. Another post tonight is covering up this roundup anyway :monster:

Kotaku posted another article 2 days ago about the Web Series, so that's the one I meant to link to. What can I say I was all drugged up when I did it. :P

I suppose the PC MIDI suits that a bit more. Also, I'm pretty sure I already knew about this, but I can't remember where from :s

The new roundup is basically ready to go, but adding images is a right pain on my work computer, so it'll have to wait a little while.

Images for the roundup are a pain in the hoop in general. All this 2:1 business for the featured image gives me a headache (it's easy and I'm complaining about nothing I just hate having to crop and resize images I'm using :D).

I thought about mentioning your disagreement in the forum link, but went for simplicity instead. If someone looks at the thread, they'll find it :)

Le sigh, the roundup is going to be fun tomorrow. Other than various news sites catching up with our previous roundup re: Lightning's tits, there's only really been news about XIV which I find as interesting as watching paint dry.

I shall make it work, worry not :monster:

There is some X/X-2 news, but I'm putting the VII fanart that's been discovered in its own post mid-week.

iDunnit, made intentionally poor/ almost unrelated news choices so Flint's job would be easier on Monday, then immediately covered it up with the glorious Case of Nanaki post.

Huzzah.

Forgive me if this has been posted elsewhere (couldn't find anything aside from Shademp's original post), but the selection has been updated:

I was debating whether or not I should create a new thread or post here, given that this is generally staff-specific discussion.

Definitely getting the Rufus and Reno once I have the money, and hopefully the rest of the Turks.

Oh I see quite a few people going crazy about the Turks being available :monster:

I definitely think this is worth making a thread for now, feel free to do so if you feel like it :)

The latest: Artwork from cancelled XII sequel revealed.

I had already chosen three stories and put the roundup together when I saw those new FFVII models, so I didn't include them. Something for next week :)

Lex, I notice you haven't been doing the welcomes and birthdays in your roundups. Do you think we should drop them altogether? It doesn't make much sense doing them only every two weeks, really.

I haven't been doing them because I don't know where to find the information and didn't look :monster:

I don't really have an opinion on whether we should continue them or not to be honest.

Sorry, I'm not sure if there's a thread already for this topic but I would like to know if anyone here has bought one :)

Flint can you make sure to put <a target="_blank"> in your HTML links please? It opens whatever link you're sharing on a new page instead of overriding the current one when people are reading :).

Just as I was about to make a thread a minute ago, I discovered that the link to the seller's FFVII directory now leads to an empty page. The FFVII products appear to be completely wiped from his shop. Looks like he got hammered by copyright. Pretty disappointing; I was looking forward to buying from them. It seems like the gods of money don't want me buying anything for myself lately - I had an ebay sale fall through a few days ago as well.

There are a couple of other things worth checking out in his shop, though, like his affordable Mobius Strip rendition of Mario Bros. World 1-1.
