If you folks can make the effort to write shit for it, and read it sure. The real problem like all other problems we've had is a lack of work. Thus I choose not to make a vote.

What happenned with it anyway?

EDIT:
Oh I see now!

I would! Just get regulars to do it! I was thinking of an annual edition containing the best stories from all the contests throughout the year! I'm not talking about from each contest, I'm talking about out of all the contests the best story/essay/poem/etc.

EDIT: Or maybe a quarterly mag! Spring, Summer, Fall, Winter!

Don't ask me, but I think you should! Add me to the list of willing contributers!

Moving this thread to suggestions. Now that I see from the polls, I don't think there's enough long term interest to keep it going.

im pretty sure people will write on it for the first months..weeks...days and then it will die

Well, the original TIEM was monthly (Am I correct? Please correct me if need be!). I'm talking about annually or quarterly to ease the pressure off the editing team!

Give it a little time, he made the thread 10 minutes ago.

I agree, maybe a quarterly Tiem with a lot of mod approval (read, mods/ admins make very visible links to the published Tiem in the CC BBS and lots of Tiem staff promotion) would be worth fucking with.

Also, it would give a lot of time for Clox, Clockfans and Clockfriends to pen their material. Plus there should be inside it separate sections or categories loosely defined (but not loose like a whore or it would become a mess) to create some kind of order/organization.

I have already tried to revive it a damn lot of times but everybody keeps telling me "NAAAAHHHH ZOMBIELINCOLN AND ALBINO GOT IT THERE SOEMWHERE SIT BACK"

And that's since 2007

EDIT: I am sure it won't die if you motherfuckers actually do something about it. I bet that no one that joined in 2007-08 doesnt even have an idea of how it works or how they can participate.

In other words, I am in, don't even doubt it.

How about this? Instead of having monthly magazines, we'd have a magazine every few months? That way we'll have a bigger magazine to show each time.

That's somewhat I mean by quarterly issues or annual issues. It gives everyone time, especially the contributers and the editors, and maybe hold an annual award for best essay/story/etc.

But what kind of mag should it be? Or was it?

We had articles of EVERY sort of kind, the main cheese was it was made all by clocks. You could write about thoughts, interviews, recipes, tutorials, make comics, reviews, points of view, anything.

That's how it always was.

TequilaClock

Also one more thing. We need talented people to do the graphic design and format for articles. We are full of them at the ClockCrew but VirusClock is not that active anymore which was the main designer aside Leek (which isnt here either).

The writers however also have the freedom for adding their own images of course.

Sombra

I know how to use Adobe Indesign, haven't done it in years though.

What program did you guys use in the past?

Column

God knows. We need mod or supermod approval to do this or should we do it anyway?

The problem was never lack of content, it was all us powerful editor-types messing it up!

Currently we have a complete issue of tiem that just needs that page-turning mechanism - it's been sitting that way for months and months.

So yeah I'd vote start a new one with some more competent editors!

edit:  The latest one I did mostly in flash, and I imagine leek's (much better) designs were made in photoshop.
