<div class="IPBDescription">Another NSR Announcement</div> <img src='http://www.nsradio.net/images/nsradiohelp.jpg' border='0' alt='user posted image' />

Over at NSRadio, we've been steadfast busy. We've all been doing our part to entertain the Natural-Selection community.

- The NSRadio Store has just opened where you can recieve the NSRadio CD packed with Natural-Selection Musical favorites. Find it <a href='http://www.cafepress.com/nsradio_store' target='_blank'>here</a>.

- You can catch our Natural-Selection Invitational Casts from our e-Sports crew every other night depending on our match.

- We've just revamped our entire website, including a new file page, schedule page and other updated pages.

- Stonemonk's Aural Foreplay has been replaced with The Bathroom Urinal which is part of the Communist Block Party (CCCBP) which runs every Friday night from 8:00 P.M. EST - Midnight EST. This combines the Bathroom Urinal, the Show and DLNation in that order.

- You can catch our NSRadio Megaweek next week (starting July 17th) where we run every available show for a week straight. (IE: CAL/NSICast, Forum Junkies, Monday Night Tech and Rock, Late Night Hits, DevCorner, Midweek Melee, The Bathroom Urinal, The Show, DLNation and Mindsucking Good Time.)

- Getting that of the way, NSRadio is opening more positions for staff and administrative assistants. Some of the positions include Content Manager, Content Advisor, Website Assistant, DJ Assistant, e-Sports Producers, e-Sports Casters and normal DJs. Throw in your application at the <a href='http://www.nsradio.net/forums' target='_blank'>NSRadio.net Forums</a>.

Okay, so now finally thats done. I'll get to the real reason I'm making this post.
I'm doing a show starting Tuesday called Forum Junkies with Vepo (was known as SSJReNe`) and I'm looking for another person to help me out.
Basically, Forum Junkies is pretty much a talk radio show where forum threads off of the Natural Selection forums, MODNS forums, NSI forums and CAL Forums and we discuss the threads and give our opinions on things. Show us your stuff over at the <a href='http://www.nsradio.net/forums' target='_blank'>NSRadio.net Forums</a> to apply.

And lastly, Mr. Headcrab is looking for 3-5 people to help him out with his show. Mr. Headcrab's Mindsucking Good Time is the dramatic reading of NS Fan fiction. Pretty much, you can relate it to the first reading of War of the Worlds over radio in 1938, but this time, it's Natural-Selection fanfiction. Once again, throw in your application over at the <a href='http://www.nsradio.net/forums' target='_blank'>NSRadio.net Forums</a>

---

Keep your ears open for the NSRadio Megaweek starting July 17th!

    so on these dramatic readings, are we supposed to be making fun of the fan fiction? because i am all in for that.
  • urinalcakeurinalcake Can&#39;t work a sound card United States Join Date: 2002-11-08 Member: 7799Members
    No, not making fun of the fanfictions and such.
    Ziggy, we're still trying to figure it out.
  • Rapier7Rapier7 Join Date: 2004-02-05 Member: 26108Members
    Reading fanfiction?

    Good luck with that.
  • CrispyCrispy Jaded GD Join Date: 2004-08-22 Member: 30793Members, Constellation
    I think that most Fan Fictions could really be improved by a good reader because many of them haven't been punctuated properly; a good reader being able to disassemble the written and bring his own <i>verbal</i> punctuation; despite there being some very good stories out there.

    I'd say the main problem is that most stories aren't that long, but on the other hand this would make it easier to get a team together to read them. Or just one guy doing different voices, ftw.
  • urinalcakeurinalcake Can&#39;t work a sound card United States Join Date: 2002-11-08 Member: 7799Members
    Well, since they're pre-recorded, we're working on sound effects and the like too.

    But anyways, please, Headcrab really needs people for his show. Please put in an application. I'm still looking for one more person as well.

    if that was an attempt to create a fan fiction and read it to us, why don't you apply for Headcrab's show?

    Uhm.. how so.

    Considering we do all CAL and NSI coverage as well as a show, DLNation tons of other stuff pertaining to Natural Selection and run it free of charge to you, the Natural-Selection fan, I really don't think you have any room to moan.

    EDIT: It maybe be a shoutcast server, soon steamcast, but we use other tools to stream like oddcast and jetcast.

    Except its more work than writing the 'draft' ie fanfic forum version. Writing some trite shebang full of 2 dimensional characters and absurd plotholes is as easy as going to LA. But making that affair into an even superficially enjoyable experience requires significantly more time or a movie camera and a few million dollars.

    Its gutsy though. Gutsy or really, really naive.

    I'm writing a SP Source Mod, I've written half a Fan Fic (8? Chapters) and I've also written a short journalism piece which can be found on the first page of the Fan Fic forums now. I'm not being naïve, I have personally seen evidence of great talent in the FanFic forums. In most cases the writers are a bit rough around the edges but nevertheless have unquestionable underlying talent. I think most of them just need a bit of encouragement and to take their work a bit more seriously (maybe the latter would come as a natural progression from the former). Having their stories selected to be read on the radio might help them realise their writing ability.

    If you took the time to sift through the FanFic Forums, you'd see that there are a lot of good ideas, a few of which have been well-written enough to merit their broadcasting (with a bit of editing). What I will say is that it'd be a shame to have someone mediocre read them. The best reader won't be able to save a shoddy story and vice versa. Both the stories and the reader should be chosen with care.

    It's quite a fine line to tread. It might be tempting to try and set some regular deadlines for Fan Fic readings. What I'd suggest to the team is not to release the piece unless it is read well, and only to select the best pieces of writing that have been through the neccessary (imo) editing process.

    Churning out tat wouldn't do justice to the work that the NS Community produces and the high standards we have come to enjoy.

    Just a bit of info everybody, motioN and stallioN are pjofsky's smurf names and,
    A) he thinks he's good enough in CAL so he has to smurf
    B) he thinks that capitalizing the last letter in his name is cool

    You're one to be correcting anyone on pronounciation when your capitalization sucks.

    gg.

    If I were pjofsky and thought I were good enough for CAL, wouldn't I <i>not</i> smurf and show everybody how good I were, instead of letting everyone think that I were a forum junkie?

    It isn't, really, but it is amusing to see people assume that I think that.

    The difference is that capitalization on the end of my name (stallioN) is intentional, yet Edge really believes that "rines" is pronounced like the "<u>i</u>" in "rh<u>i</u>no".

    We have found 2 more positions for forum junkies, so don't worry about that anymore.
    FireWater and ds^depot join us every Tuesday.
    That file has been uploaded and can be found at <a href='http://www.NSRadio.net' target='_blank'>http://www.NSRadio.net</a>
