| For times when you need an idea or have writer's block, maybe you can set up a persistent chat room somewhere like on skype or irc for people to help each other out? |
| Id be Happy to help out with that as Im always ON Skype and more than happy to Talk to anyone about anything :D My Skype Name Is Bennyamd |
The Night is Always Darkest Before the Dawn. Changing the world with one act of kindness at a time. |
| I am usually on there too! You can find me under the same name/pic! If enough people are interested I can start a thread on Writers Block: Sykpe Group... |
|
| I guess if a Skype group is in the works, I might as well join in the chat.( Skype name is Zachgranstrom) _______ Possible idea: What if we have a blogging competition where members of the club vote to see who wrote the best blog review...or whatever. First prize = A special LE Bloggers badge. Second prize= Another member card of his/her choosing. Third Prize: Honorable mention on the club profile page. |

I was thinking we could choose a show to review (anime obviously), then the club members vote to decide who wrote the best review. |

It will encourage everyone to write a review (great for overcoming writer's block), and it could also serve as a way for people to receive feedback towards their writing style. If everyone else thinks this is a good idea, we should start voting for a show to review. I guess, just make sure it is a popular title that most people have seen so that everyone can write about it. |

I can make up a thread tonight for it and it will go out in this months newsletter so that people know about it. :c) I am thinking that we can do Bleach for a starter anime. Most everyone has seen this or has strong reasoning against it lol. For next month we can have people suggest/vote on what anime to use and just go down the list. |

I know this is going to seem a bit biased simply because I haven't watched Bleach, but would it be possible to start with something...with fewer episodes? That way, even if people haven't seen the show, they can easily finish it in a day or so if it's 12 episodes. Even 24 wouldn't be too much to ask, but Bleach kind of requires a large time commitment for those that haven't bothered keeping up with it. Just my thoughts, since this might become a monthly thing, it's fine if you guys go with Bleach to start and we just vote next month :D Edit: saw that Bleach has already been chosen. I guess for next time, should we set a restriction that the monthly contests can only be anime that are two cour maximum (ie. around 26 episodes)? This way, it will allow people who have not watched the show a chance to catch up. Since ~26 episodes should only take a few days or a week to watch (depends on one's free time), it will allow more people to participate. It's better than having most people say "Oh, I haven't seen this, I can't participate" and only having 2-3 people write reviews per month. Just my 2 cents, maybe we can do this next time? |

Its kinda hard to find a one that everyone knows that is short and can get access to it easily. If you want to recomend one that is about 12ep and is popular let me know! I can always change it. |

I feel kinda bad changing it since you've already choosing this month's title, but if you're okay with it, I'd suggest maybe Air? It's only 12 (13 if you count the re-cap) episodes and most people have likely seen it (and if not, can easily finish it within a reasonable amount of time). Hopefully this will make it so more people can participate. |

Well, assuming it's allowed to post links here (I'm new at posting on the forums), you can stream the episodes here in passable quality: http://www.animehere.com/anime/air-tv.html Also, if you don't mind me asking, how were we going to go about posting these reviews? Were we just going to post them on MAL as reviews, or in a specific thread? Either way, could I suggest that people refrain from posting their score for the anime, since it could affect the voting? I mean, people should be free to write their review based on how they felt about the anime. I feel giving a tangible score could skew the voting process. |

I would like to think that people will vote more on how the review was done then on the fact that the (voter) likes the anime and the (reviewer) did not. |
