The second edition will be sold in the Hall of Explorers before and after the Senate meeting today!

Teaser:

Once again, we will only be able to trade them to people from TVC and DB - but if you are from one of the other three servers, you can still ICly buy it there and I will come trade it to you on an alt after the Senate. Very Happy

Thought I'd finally put the import code here. Couldn't get it to work on the forums so here's a Dropbox link:

There won't be a new edition in November, and I'm unsure if I will have enough time to continue doing this in December / next year - unless more people start contributing. So, enjoy (or hate) what may be the last issue of The Scarlet!

I have an error while trying to import the file via code paste.

Unfortunately same issue as mallucis

Did you download the Word document or just try to copy paste it from the website?

It should work if you download it.

It did!

Edit: Thank you for concern ^^

Edit Edit: I would like to post a recruitment advert in Scarlet. Tell me what you need. If I come up with some article I'll also be happy to send it!

by **Webbles** Sat Dec 12, 2015 4:23 pm

Right, so. I'll try to continue running The Scarlet, but the papers will likely be a lot smaller due to my lack of time.

Unless, of course, a lot of people start contributing.

If you still want to do this, just send me the ad (and possible articles) with an in-game letter or PM it to me!

Good color

The time has come for what seems to be my annual attempt at starting a newspaper. Razz

I have updated the main post with the changes I've made for this year!

Let's see if I can do more than two editions this time. Please contribute, and maybe I'll get at least three of them out!

by **Webbles** Tue Aug 09, 2016 5:19 pm

Since a a lot of speculation becomes irrelevant tomorrow, I decided to rush the re-launch.

So! The launch will happen around 20.30 Realm Time. I have updated the link on the main post in case you want to go stare at the empty forum already.

PS. Signing up isn't required to read the tabloid!

Shamelessly spamming. It's out now.

This is amazing.

by **Skarain** Tue Aug 09, 2016 8:26 pm

Very good!

I must say, is there a "donations box"? Since you can't "pay" for the newspaper ingame, as it is not traded, an appreciating reader could still send an amount of gold to the newspaper's office OOC, to show even some kind of support even if they do not deem themselves fit to write a topic.

(i.e. to which character you want "donations" to be sent by ingame mail?)

Also, I am so going to "clip a page of newspaper" and smack it as advertisement on AF recruitment page once it needs bump. The Witch is Back, indeed!

Top quality rag. Great effort obviously went into it. If you don't do that for a living then I'd suggest you could!

Looking forward to the next edition...

by **Webbles** Wed Aug 10, 2016 6:05 pm

Thanks, everyone! Very Happy

You can also just send me tips about things that might be worth writing about, even that helps a lot!

I was expecting you to say that Laughing

Go ahead, but remember to link the source as well Wink

So this is how I will replace the gold that I'm no longer getting from my garrisons! Thanks Razz

I've considered it!

by **Webbles** Tue Aug 23, 2016 5:39 pm

I intend to release the next issue this week, hopefully before Saturday, so if you have any articles, ads, columns, announcements or tips (et cetera), please PM me them ASAP! Smile

by **Webbles** Mon Aug 29, 2016 5:17 pm

Right, that was a little delayed.

Anyway! A farm fresh pile of bs is up again for your reading 'pleasure'!
And since we've reached the magical number of two released issues again, I'm definitely going to need help from you all to keep things running; so pls contribute!

Click the big 'The Scarlet' text in my signature to be thrown to the site. Very Happy

Yay!!

by **Webbles** Sat Oct 22, 2016 3:09 pm

I just released a new issue! Go read!

by **Sagefire - Dove** Sun Oct 23, 2016 7:21 am

10/10. A fantastic read! I love the "insights" provided by 6YO-S, and the obituary was a great touch. All the articles were a blast to read. Great entertainment value and you can see the effort that was put into the tabloids. Well done! Very Happy

by **Webbles** Sun Oct 23, 2016 12:37 pm

Thanks!

I just realized I had the death count wrong on the 'Euthanasia by Fel' article, but oh well! Laughing

by **Narin** Sat Dec 31, 2016 1:04 pm

An anonymous scribe sends an advertisement to the scarlet, I am unsure if this is the right place for this add, but I accepted the commission so I have done my part.

Advertisement:

by **Webbles** Sat Dec 31, 2016 4:09 pm

It's not quite the right place! They ought to be sent to me via a private message first, so that all the news and ads would be fresh to the viewers when the issue is actually released (and so that I can do my best to twist everyone's words before they get out).

But no problem!

I'm actually going to release a new issue right now as it's long past due, even though I don't have much stuff now. So, go read by clicking the link in my signature!

by **Webbles** Wed Aug 01, 2018 9:21 pm

Forced myself to write a new issue. [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]
