PJM Newsroom #2

by

Welcome to the second edition of PJM Newsroom! Let us immediately go to the first announcement of today!

Submissions for contest still open

Know you can still submit your bio and short story for the PJM contest! For details visit >>>HERE<<<. You still have plenty of time left but don’t wait too long because I neeeed submissions!

Name change and logo

Already announced in the contest write-up, PJNM will be shortened to PJM. We also have a (temporary) logo featuring Chespin from our in-house artist moving. From now on, Chespin will be the mascot for the magazine, like Sewaddle is for the site.

Tentative release date

We’re still aiming for a mid-February release date. The deadline for all the content is at the end of December, after which we can start putting everything together using Digital Publishing Software. We’ll be using Scribus, since it is open-source but a still relatively strong DSP.

Got feedback? You can still mail us!

If you want to hit us up with something, you can do so through [email protected]. This is also the place if you’ve got any concerns, complaints, or crazy ideas. We’ll normally get back to you in one day, and we even reply faster on weekends too!

Content announcement

For this week we’ll reveal the staff-focused section. The first few pages will include a page with a picture of every staff member along with a short bio, a poll among the whole staff and two interviews featuring the man behind the site himself and Daedardus! If there is something you really want to know about those two staff members, you can ask so through the email provided earlier.

 

We have to admit news is calm at the moment, but we’re exploring options to make things more interesting. More on that later. See you next time!

  1. Just a heads up guys, I might not be as active here as I usually am, for 2 reasons. One being school (duh), and the other is I’m going through a bit of a family problem. All I’m gonna say about the family problem is; I might move… again… for the third time… in less than 7 months. >.>

  2. speaking of on topic conversations, should I write about the struggles one has having to juggle being handsome, AND playing pokemon. It’s a serious struggle.

  6. One thing regarding the PJ Tournament (my input [suggestion], if we end up doing it) could we do it during the summertime so that everyone has a lot of time to prepare and we don’t have to worry about time zones and if we “have too much homework” or “I have school that day at that time”?

  12. I’m going for the night, maybe tomorrow I’ll play… Not really in the mood to play right now (I’m totally lying I might go play a little bit right now). Goodnight guys! 😀

  15. Can I just ask if we are preceding with the Pokemon X and Y Game Tournament mentioned by moving yesterday? He said he would begin thinking of ideas tomorrow (which he said yesterday, making it today). Does anyone know anything?
    And I probably won’t be able to be on the rest of today due to homework (technically I have no homework, but I’d like to complete some extra work nonetheless). 😀

    • I think it is. It can make life a little bit easier if you want a certain Pokemon to have a good amount of perfect IVs and it has 0 or 1 to begin with. It will make the process a tad shorter, but there is also Ditto as another solution

        • Ah, true. Those are difficult to come by. Personally, I found someone who had it through YouTube. One of the top comments on a WiFi video was a guy who had it and was offering his FC to anyone, and he added me. There’s always that option

  19. I just thought of this. It’d be cool to start a tradition of seasonal Pokemon tournaments here on PJN. Winners of the summer, autumn, spring, and winter tournaments get to face off in a championship round.
