????

If you havent got the time then rather than expect other people to do the work GM-JudgeNik has kindly set up a blog and allowed anyone to contribute including yourself. He & Number Twenty Three are also going to publish a BB magazine too. I can't help feeling now you are duplicating work for the sake of it. You have 2 perfectly good formats which are an improvement on your set up and you have been welcomed to be as involved as you wish to on both.

You asked me if you could copy the latest interview and I have no problem with this but I gotta ask you now how you think your project is going to take off? If you are going to spurn the chance to work with others and aren't going to compile any of the data yourself why would others want to assist you?!

I apologize, I know it was a crappy move to turn down Judge Nik`s blog. It`s just I want my newspaper to have all the stuff that my current magazine has, you know ask Stogey, inside the numbers. I don`t really want my newspaper in the form of a blog it doesn`t really fit my needs. May i ask politely what you mean by

Do you mean that you kind of think that I am copying the work just so I can call it my own and get some credit? That`s not what I`m trying to do. And I`m not going to `spurn` the chance to work with others because this is what I have asked of the viewers in the previous post is exactly what I want. I wasn`t quite sure what Nik was going to create for me when he offered and that`s my bad. I hope this answers all of your concerns.

You never actually asked what the capabilities of this blog are.

I can easily create a static form that submits user questions to stogey.
The format of the page is completely flexible.

<complaint>
The main thing, was you did not keep me informed as you changed your mind several times.
You didn't turn it down, you accepted my idea, I built it for you and then you announced the other site. Then you wrote back to me saying you wanted to use my site again. Then after releasing 1 post you decided to go back to your other site without saying anything to me.
</complaint>

I have taken the site up myself and have hopefully created a place where interesting material can be submitted by a lot of people.
If you still want to be involved you are welcome to be and ideas for the site are always welcome.

Yes I'm going to wait first and get everything organized before submitting a new issue. I am trying to get some regular columnists and it's going at a steady pace, I am quite happy.

I think the signup for columnists is done in a bad way. I got signed up by one of my friends. So basically it is being used as a joke of sorts.

Hey guys Ive just launched the new site, where BB-News is expected to stay.http://thebbnews.webs.com/ It is very bare and is barely considered an issue as I need you guys to help me out. Speaking of that I am going to just re post that so it is the first thing you guys see.

Okay guys I no longer have the time and enthusiasm to take time to publish an issue a week, I need your guys' help. Here is a list of what I need along with a link to the sign up.

NT/U21 Reporter- Covers U21/NT News required to write one article every two weeks.

B3 Reporter- Basically what I have been doing, writing an article about what`s going on in B3 every week that the B3 tournament is going on, including the B3 schedule, the predicted winner and why you choose this team to win.

Reporter- Interviews people, include maybe 5-8 questions per interview. Keep changing the questions unlike I did and keep the questions creative.
Inside the numbers columnist- A columnist who finds interesting statistics and sends them to me, they will then be published. Statistics must be sent to me every week.

Fill in Stogey's roll- You will be asked questions (2-3 per week) sent by viewers and be expected to answer them.

Thanks for the help guys if you are interested hit me with a BB-Mail.
