Unless I get told to stop doing it, I'd like to continue doing The White Counsil Times (formerly the Weekly Update, but since it wasn't weekly, it would be a misnomer, and the BiWeekly Update just sounds odd). So I'd like for you all to give me some input on what you'd like to see. General suggestions are good, but I'd specifically like to know what you'd like to see in the Video Game review and the Movie review.

Thanks. :)

Could I do the game review for the next one? I would like to do it on the new CoD DLC and Fallout 3 DLC :D

If possible, i'll write it and then PM it to you.

Is that a challenge? Have you not seen the Youtube footage of me? At my family New Year's Eve party, where I mercilessly chased my four year old cousin around in a drunken rage, attempted to hit him with a plastic, illuminating lightsaber whilst yelling 'Piņata, piņata!', before tripping over my own pair of slippers and falling over, crushing the fleeing juvenile as I did so? Well, neither have I.

Movies, try and do movies that have just come out on dvd, that way it helps in the choice for renting them etc.

I think also discussions of suggestions that have been made, that way everyone is ensured to know about them.
But its very good. I think Sunny wasnt sure if he would be able to do them a lot, and if someone is free and wants to do one, I am sure you wouldn't mind that week off :) But happy for you to carry on making them. Anyone who wants to send a bit in is welcome.

"Should you ever feel agony for the loss of your Brothers due to enemy guns, bear through it with a stern smile and let your enemy know that you will get into combat soon enough. His judgement cannot be avoided!

Should your charge falter under heavy resistence, roar your devotion in His name and amount whatever strength you have left at one enemy point and crush it utterly! Let the enemy feel your pain by turning their's into agony!

Should you lay beaten and dying on the field, laugh with pride for even in death our enemies will fear us, leave them with a scar that will haunt them till the time of their retribution!" - Chaplain Valorus

Spam pit updates. Assuming anything of interest comes out of it, space can be filled. More ninja content will also be appreciated. :ph43r:

I'm making an "Anniversary Edition" when I come home from Barcelona, Andy, and then hopefully, after that I will have more time and I will try to do them on a regular basis.

We should however, have this as a collobarative effort as it used to be, where some members do the news themselves (this was my job, originally) and then others do Movie Reviews, Game Reviews, Battle Reports (if anyone is still interested) and if we have enough speed on that one, we should also include news reports from the Jousting Tournament in addition to the RPG summaries (brilliant idea there, Rudder), atlhough that one should include more plotlines, meaning that we would have to split up the work in small bits so that someone takes the "White Realm", others take "Weissland", etc.

Oh and to the new members who do not remember the original Updates, here are some links :)

http://s10.zetaboards.com/TheWhiteCounsil/topic/531792/1/ (some of the oldest Updates)

http://s10.zetaboards.com/TheWhiteCounsil/topic/533188/1/ (first in 2006 :D )

Some entertaining reads there - with my sucky English and everything, although it contains some of that good old TWC spirit from old that we all remember with fondness :)

As for the NEWSLETTERS, which is actually the piece of work that more than just I worked on, I have posted a new topic in "News and Info" as the original links are broken.

I figured it was something that I would like to see as a member, so I figured I'd try to inject some life into it and add some interesting articles to the normal update to make it something more. Glad it seems to be well-received.

Yeah. I think that we may potentially get the Newsletter back. Those things were awesome. 25+ pages issues! :D

Well since Quantum of Solace is out on DVD this week worldwide, I think that would be a good movie to review for those who haven't seen it and would like to rent it, as Andy suggests. I wouldn't mind writing a review, unless someone else should want to.

HIC, I demand that you bludgeon yourself with a rock until your mental status returns to the level of a rapist who calls back to apologise! Your use of elaborate language and words is making me uneasy. Although, I am somewhat relieved to see that your punctuation remains shit-based.

As I seem to remember, you watched it 3 times at the cinema, did you not?

So I think you should write it :P

I did indeed... I'm a bit of a James Bond fanatic, but I'm sure I'm not the only one here.

Sent it to you moments ago.
