Cloverfield 10-22-2002 04:46 AM

*ahem* Please do not turn this topic into a chat! Okay, that said (although Xavier covered it nicely already), I have made my decision of who will become the feature article writer, and will announce such tomorrow (I'd like to contact everyone who applied before letting everyone know).

I'd also like those who are interested in being guest writers to let me know, and maybe they could just submitt articles whenever they are able to or is appropriate for them.

Thanking everyone who showed interest.

Abe Babe...

Xavier 10-22-2002 03:14 PM

I would like to write one text... once...

Wil 10-22-2002 07:18 PM

Like I said, I would like to contribute such features, but I can't be relied upon to deliver at a deadline.

Wow, really? You'd like to see me write? Why's that...?

I guess I could do one or two guest articles, Abe Babe...

EDIT: I have the worrying suspicion that this is turning into a chat.

"Worry suspicion" - just admit it, you can't face up to the fact you are a 41 year old teacher from King Edward X Grammar school with a 6 year old son.

Yeah, good idea, before Xavier notices and hits us. Maybe we might meet each other at OddChat, though. Not today, I'm busy today.

*hides from Xavier*

Busy marking papers eh Mr B?

hmmm... is there a problem with any of these definitions? I would hope you were referring to an informal conversation. But then what are forums here for? Oh.

No problems... guest writers wouldn't need any deadlines ... it would kind of be like submitting a fan fic to Oddworld-Web, anything you wanted to contribute would be great (and I could provide a link to Oddworld Encyclopedia when it's done also).

No, but go start another topic over in off-topic discussion ... don't go messing up topics with idle chit chat that is totally irrelevant, which is actually against the rules. Do you want a warning? I didn't think so. :)

Oddsville 10-23-2002 06:14 PM

I to would like to do a guest appearence or two if I don't get the position. By the way, good luck to anyone who applyed/tried out for this wrighting position.:fuzwink:

You could move this one over...

don't go messing up topics with idle chit chat that is totally irrelevant, which is actually against the rules.
Well as this topic has become obsolete (you have chosen the writers and we are just re-going over Max's double post), it surely doesn't matter - it can no longer be ruined.

Do you want a warning?
Go ahead. I've taken worse. And I don't see what I've done that's exactly wrong, but there we go.

I didn't think so.
Never think to assume, dear friend, never.

Alcar 10-24-2002 06:53 AM

Cut the crap people, Abe Babe's already had to tell you to cut it out. It should only take once for people to realise.

Stop pressurising me! But that would be fine. Got plenty done this last week.

I'm sorry, I forgot I had to check your profile every day in case you changed it. What happened to Ross anyway?

At least you're sorry. Now apologise some more.

Um, not a lot. He's still here. Well, not here, obviously, that would be strange and interesting, but he's still around. Or do you mean in my profile? I took it out in case someone I know found it. You want me to put him back again?

M.O.M 10-26-2002 02:53 PM

who's ross?????????

I could post up Danny's apologisation e-mail to me... ;)

To be honest I couldn't give a flying fuck.. I was just wondering how your relationship was going. Does he still hate you?


And my apology is taken back since you couldn't be bothered to hold on till I woke up to chat over MSN. There goes my week. :(

TheKhanzumer 10-26-2002 04:18 PM

Back on track...
 
When is AbeBabe going to post who they selected? Please hurry! I am anxious to find out!

M.O.M 10-26-2002 04:21 PM

i know i wont get it cause i said so, but i wanna know who did

ZombieX 10-27-2002 02:05 PM

Yeah, I'm wetting myself with excitement.

Cloverfield 10-30-2002 02:06 AM

I would like to announce that the new writer for Oddworld-Web is The Khanzumer. I think Khanz will make a wonderful addition to the Oddworld-Web staff and he seems like he has some great ideas to contribute.

Thank you to all who applied. I'm not announcing any positions for guest writers, because as the name applies, they are guests. So if anyone wants to contribute anything on a irregular or one-off basis, then just PM me. Of course articles submitted in this manner would need to be approved.

*sees that pleas to cease irrelevant discussion have fallen on deaf ears*

I'll now un-stick this thread seeing this has been announced. I really think there are WAY too many stickies in this forum, it's beginning to look like the OIPT forum before the Oddlympics sub-forum was created.

Abe Babe...

M.O.M 10-30-2002 04:24 AM

Congrats Khanz..well done!

TheKhanzumer 10-30-2002 03:11 PM

Thank you.

I've already started working on my first article and hopefully I can have it finished by tommorow so that it can go up on the first of December.

M.O.M 10-30-2002 03:57 PM

yay... cant wait!

Mac the Janitor 10-30-2002 09:26 PM

Congrats, Khanz. I'm sure you'll do perfect.

I love your writing style, love your stories, and so I'll definitely love yer articles.

M.O.M 10-31-2002 04:38 AM

Mac..whats khanz storys like?

Xavier 10-31-2002 08:23 AM

Congrats Khanz,
I'm sure you will do it perfectly
