Vatheon On the Air
Howdy! Sadly, this is not a post to tell y'all that I'm coming off hiatus, however I do have time to throw up a bit of a plotting post. First, it's (a short) story time!
So, about a year or two ago, a few of the old members of Vatheon made a radio network, an IC one. It would have news, music, and if I remember correctly there was a gossip hour. The news could range from small things to big things. Characters were allowed to make music requests and volunteer gossip. It's very much a public broadcast for anyone and everyone to tune into on their SFC's.
Unfortunately, it was discontinued after a while.
Now, what's this got to do with us in the present? Easy! A couple people on Plurk, myself included, thought it might be a good idea to try doing that again! This is primarily an interest and suggestions post.
First, who would ICly be interested in being part of this network? Gossip, news, music, advice, Q&A's, characters are free to partner up or go solo, and you're free to make up your own thing!
Second, who would OOCly be interested in helping out?
Third, do you think a radio broadcast post should have everything altogether in one post or would it make more sense to do individual posts for that? I am taking suggestions on anything and everything you can think of to help with this, and to make it fun for everyone!
Fourth, how interactive do you think this post should be? 'Calling in' and things like that would have to be public, though, since this is something like a public radio station.
Fifth, do you think there should be an 'anonymous' option for the characters who wish to call in?
Sixth, do you think there should be an IC plotting post or do you think we should just plot it OOCly and handwave the IC plotting?
And finally, if we do go ahead with this, when/how often should a radio post be made if we decide to do it all in one post?
You're totally free to just say you're interested in seeing something like this if you don't think you want to help out or if your character wouldn't be interested in being part of the 'team!'

no subject
I think a single post would be nice, with maybe multiple threads with the appropriate subjects for people to reply to? Also, once a week might be a little much for some people to handle and have the time to reply to before the next one, so either once or twice a month seems reasonable to me.
no subject
That's certainly an idea! The main body of the post could be what's being discussed? And I think once or twice a month sounds more reasonable, definitely.
