What kind of articles are you looking for here? I think I could give this a try at some point.

Basically anything of a sort of conversational/thinky nature. Not so much a "how to build this" or a game review. Rather I would prefer something that deals both with games and the people who play them, kind of like the show.

Any interest in cultural/regional differences in gamers? And their universality too of course.

I would be very happy to do a co-article (haha, get the pun?) with someone. I think it would be great to compare the differences of two groups and combine them into a single story. Anyone want to give this a co (yet another one!)?

As always, I'm happy to co-operate as long as you can co-ordinate with my slow rate of writing.

Wow, I feel vaguely embarrassed at how bad those were.

Neat. We need to discuss this further somehow.

Do you use MSN or GAIM? Perhaps emails if not.

EDIT:- I just noticed the icons we're using. That is awesome  Big Grin

How long is that going to take? It's 0:22 here, so I might not be online if it takes more than 2-3 hours. Not too much of a problem, but I know not to stay up waiting if you come in six hours or so.

Heh... I didn't know how often you check that email addy. As someone that has multiple accounts, I know what it's like to miss one. Thus the heads up here.

How long do you want the articles to be, because I could write  a few articles on highschool gaming and culture.

300-600 words is the basic idea. If the article is longer I'll take it, but I may want to break it up into a couple of installments.
