Doomworld Magazine

[Katgut]

Anyone think this might be a good idea?

The purpose would be to offer, for example, more in-depth reviews of everything that comes into /newstuff over a month, interviews with assorted Doom-related people, possibly the Doom Comic, and maybe random wild speculation on Doom 3.

Oh, and to get id to give an exclusive on Doom 3 to this rather than to PC Lamer.

[Linguica]

I wouldn't mind having a magazine devoted to Doom, except for the fact that it would be about 4 pages thick every month, and 10 people would subscribe to it. Oh well.

[Katgut]

Plus ads... making it about 40 pages. :->

Think "2600" here, folks.

[Guest Nuno Correia]

Honestly, that makes no sense. That is, only if you're talking about a paper mag :)

[Katgut]

Yes, I am... and it makes sense if only because then we can give to those people who actually want more information (and/or don't like trying to work with the archives here).

Plus, we could always do an annual CD of "The Best Of /newstuff"... :->

BTW, if we *do* start this, Kat is technology editor. :-)

I like your idea, Katgut. It's...um, original.

[NiGHTMARE]

Linguica tried to do one a couple of years ago. It was called "Doomwire", or something like that anyway.

I'm not sure what happened to it, I guess it kind of petered out without anyone noticing :)

[Lüt]

That wouldn't work. At all.

[Katgut]

Care to explain WHY?
