Regularly Recurring Content Thread and Hub Post
« on: August 27, 2014, 04:45 »
So here is a thread where i'll be pitching ideas for the articles I suggested in the other thread.  This is purely for those types of things.  This is also a hub post for content which already exist.

6th Generation Pokemon of the Week by Richard and Blaziken.
Latest update:  August 31st, 2014
Updates:  Every Sunday
Subject:  Tyranitar
Hub post
This article series, updated weekly, talks about the competitive merits of various Pokemon in the sixth generation.  It is a very good issue, updated weekly.

Pokemon Black Nuzlocke: LIVE STREAMS by Sappy
Latest update: August 31st, 2014
Updates: Weekly, Sunday at 8pm.
Hub post
A weekly stream in which we play Pokemon Black together, have a laugh and a chat together for an hour. Enjoy the richness of Unova.

Metagame Sprites by PKMN.NET's spriters
Updates: as often as people contribute with sprites
Hub post
A forum project where the spriters of PKMN.NET collaborate to create in-house sprites to be uploaded on and for site (and forum) use.

Video Game OST Discussion by Lord Raven
Updates:  Once a week on Fridays
Link
A project of mine where I discuss a video game OST each week.

Unsuspected, "unviable" Niche Pokémon of the Day, by Delicious_Scout.
Latest Update: August 31st
Updates:  Analyzes Pokemon on Weekdays and analyzes members on saturdays
Link and Hub Post.
From Monday to Friday, a Pokémon that, at maximum, appears in the D rank of Smogon's Viabily Ranking, is analysed, so that it can be used with extensive support in the OU metagame. Some Pokémon might be used in Übers as well, as proven in the first issue. In Saturdays, I will "analyse" a member of the community, and, in Sunday, I will read Richard's article and watch Lewis' stream, so nothing will be updated during that day.

PKMN.net bi-weekly prize tournament by Richard and Blaziken
Latest Update: September 5th, 2014
Updates: Every two weeks
link
A bi-weekly tournament with different rules for each tournament that gives out a competitive Pokemon as a prize.


I was also thinking of collaborating with someone to bring Video Game Reviews back, but instead of outright reviews I'd make it into "Video Game spotlight."  My think with collaboration is that I could update it once every two or three weeks, someone else would update it in that gap, and if I get a third person then someone else could update it in that gap.  It would give us three weeks to come up with something concise and informative; nothing like those 20K character posts I used to make, with no visuals or anything.  Because nobody wants to read something.

Video Game music weekly is something I'd be interested in doing alone or with someone; Video game music is almost as important as the game itself, and it would be really cool to bring some stuff out there.

Lottie said she has dibs on "Pokemon route of the fortnight" but it would be cool for someone else to work with her to get more updates more often.  So long as there's communication, having a collaboration is a really good thing.


If anyone else has any - and I mean ANY - other ideas or can tell me about any other things going on, let me know.  I'll update this regularly as the threads or articles themselves update.  It should be very easy if I'm either given a heads up or if there's a very regular interval in which it occurs.

It's just an idea that I threw around, something quirky and different.  Someone called dibs on it but I don't think it's gonna be written for a while.

If we're adding forums stuff too then add the Metagame Spriters in please; Gen I-IV got done and added to the site so if we can get V and VI done maybe they can be added to the site too? Plus it's a great project that a lot of people have helped towards and seem like they'll continue to help =]

Everyone who wants to add something (so bread dead redemption, GL, etc), please give me a brief description, the latest update, and a link.  Pretty much the exact same format in the OP.

Dissertation comes first, of course, but as of September 30th, I will be free to think it through in more detail

Well did she make you cry? Make you break down?
Shatter your illusions of love?
And is it over now? Do you know how
To pick up the pieces and go home?

Change "whenever he gets it done" by "daily, but Sundays".

The idea of the "Updates" part is to tell us how often it's opdated.
