Northern Travel Magazine Idea Revival [SUGGESTION]

Several months ago, Syrixia suggested that there should be a Northern Travel Magazine.

In essence, this would consist of paragraphs written by residents about their nations that would be submitted to the Ministry of Culture. These could be submitted on the forums by any nation in TNP and the best 10 would be taken and posted by The Northern Lights nation and would be featured as a pinned dispatch and be distributed internationally.

I thought that this idea was great and should be put back on the table.

Thoughts? Suggestions?
 
Perhaps the resources of the Culture Ministry could be useful to your project. It looks like you posted a thread on it about 9 months ago, and it hasn't gotten much traction. This could be the boost that it needs.

Syrixia:
Madjack, Goyanes, and I are already working on something like this. :eyebrow:
I'm surprised the culture staff heard nothing about it, then.
If I recall correctly, it was an idea Siwale gave to Madjack, who promptly gave it to Goyanes and myself. As COE said, however, perhaps the culture staff can bolster this. I'll share what we have so far later tonight.

You both were the ones who posted interest in the dispatch thing, so I figured this would be easier

This is the brief from Ghost: "Since we're bringing back press releases, I had a thought you might like an RP-themed release, maybe as a kind of teaser to generate curiosity about RP from the general population. I know a lot of RPers on the RMB. Think that might be worth putting together?"
Very specific I know, but I figured what you guys can put together will work as a base
and if anyone else has an idea they want to throw in we'll open it up after the first few
Syrixia - 06/01/2017
We have to be careful, though, to make sure that only the most realistic RP gets through to this RP release. They need to see what real RP is like so we can stop getting infested by all these NS-stat RMB RPers.(edited)
MadJack - 06/01/2017
"Anyway let me know what they say about the press release thing. That or something like digests, some kind of update summarizing recent rp activity would be cool. Helps the region know more and get interested, helps me keep track of all the content you guys are coming up with" >> he also said this as well
I mean we're also teaming it - hopefully - with Sil's updated FAQ that I know Goy has seen, so hopefully we can direct them there - link it in the dispatch or something
This is a RP Staff/whatever department Siwale's in charge of thing, rather than a culture thing
Syrixia - 06/01/2017
I was under the impression that Goyanes was in charge of the RP wing of MiniCult
Goyanes - 06/01/2017
I am...
I am the DM in charge of RP-MiniCult Affairs
Syrixia - 06/01/2017
^^^^
so what does Siwale have to do with this
Goyanes - 06/01/2017
ah
he is HA minister
probably responisble for coordinating this press release
MadJack - 06/01/2017
essentially, yeah
MadJack - 06/01/2017
In terms of deadline, 5 days would be ideal
Goyanes - 06/01/2017

Ah right, I forgot that
@MadJack @Goyanes Here's my idea. We call it ERAS MONTHLY. We ship it out every month. We can use that old logo that Sodium made. We can divide it up into 5 sections:

1. Fluttr Highlights
2. This Month In The News
3. World Leader Profile
4. Nation Profile
5. Out of Character (latest happenings in the community in OOC)
MadJack - 06/01/2017
That'll work. I'd like the potential for one shot RP posts as well in there but as a special thing.
Goyanes - 06/01/2017
i like the formet
format**
MadJack - 06/01/2017
If there's a large number of submissions then we can make it a regular thing.

MadJack - 06/06/2017
Any movement on this?
Goyanes - 06/06/2017
well, before I go off, I do have a good story to put in "This Month In The News"
that weird food poisoning article from demescia
Syrixia - 06/06/2017
I have time to compile some stuff. @Goyanes, You can do This Month In The News. Just scour the news thread for good articles. We can use May's stuff too, since it's early June and we shouldn't wait until the month's end to release it.
I'll do Fluttr highlights and OOC happenings.
Then once we're done with those we can work together on the two profiles

OOC HAPPENINGS:

http://forum.thenorthpacific.org/topic/9059860/1/ - The RP Conclave has ruled on the presence of Christianity in the RP world of Eras. It is now called Messianism, and, in the interest of ensuring that no player can claim to be the originator of a real-life religion, the Ceretian Catholic Church has been relegated to simply being a popular sect that sprang from Ceretis.
@MadJack done. @Goyanes, how goes This Month In The News?
