Did KKragthorrr just accidentally volunteer or did the mighty Khaboom just take editorship? Forgive Kkragthorrr he is an ignorant troll. Either way I will support Trollzine.

I think Khaboom is taking forward the magical shamsheer of editorship and we are his willing followers.
I am sure that Gaptooth and Khaboom will exchange emails and Khaboom will be inundated with articles.
That does give greater urgency to my own assigned sub edit , so I will get back on it.
I will also pm Khaboom with my email so he can contact me when he wants for any further tasks.

Happy to hear it, khaboom! I'm grateful to see someone taking up the mantle of the TrollsZine! To be clear, in case anyone is reading these posts and expecting a fully realized issue 9 right around the corner, Khaboom, you're setting the expectation of getting underway around the holidays in December, correct? For all those waiting for the next issue, that means no earlier than a Spring release, possibly Summer, depending on Khaboom's workload. He will set the release time based on what needs to be accomplished, the time needed to do so and how much time he can devote to the project. I hereby state that Khaboom can modify the expected release time as needed. All I ask is that you stay in communication with us. If anyone finds that unsatisfactory, then I would suggest that they step up and offer to help out. We're dealing in solutions here, not complaints. If a problem needs to be brought up, by all means, do so - but make sure to also offer a possible solution, even if you're not sure how to make it work. We have a community with a diverse skill set here. Odds are, someone might have an idea of how to implement your suggestion as to how to solve a problem. Complaints for the sake of complaints are going to fall upon deaf ears. Khaboom, I will be available to you and the TrollsZine!, as always, in the capacity of proofreader/copy editor. Feel free to call upon me for such services and let me know if there is anything else you need. I look forward to your explosive issue!

Bang! Yes, 20 December is the time when I can get active but I shall chip away in the meantime. I shall take recent issues as the guiding star and not charge off after some phantom on the horizon!

Prof has sent me some material but it looks way short of the 100 pages I think you all expect - so, get those wagons rolling once you've laden them with scrolls, parchments and portraits for me to polish, gloat over and prepare for centre stage (that was just to show you you're likely to get a bunch of English spellings and definitely nothing aluminum).

Khaboom, does what you have include my Magic Item article? If not I'll email to you direct. That article was included in the archive I sent to Prof, and I just sent my collection to khaboom just in case.

What kind of articles do you need? Point me in a direction and I'll see what I can contribute. At this stage I just want whatever people feel motivated to write please. I have plenty of my own material but don't really want to include more than one thing - I fully expect a deluge! The ap game and dT7T should mean creatvity is at a high. I will welcome artwork - or offers to draw to fit specific pieces. Bring it on, trolls!

Well done for stepping up. Previous editors have made Trollszine a hard act to follow. (The ba****ds, but we're grateful.) It's been such a long time since the last issue that I would be overjoyed with a small 'interim' issue. It would help you find your editorial feet and any mistakes would be small. Just my tuppence worth.

Would do but time before December is the issue (pun possibly intended) for me.

I'll try and get something put together. Possibly a new playable kindred, with stat modifiers, background etc. I am trying to improve my art at the moment but I'm a long way from proficient. However if you want any art for particular articles 'll give it a go. Very exciting to have this back on track, any chance of having a print version released? Here's a sample of my style.

A new year issue would be great. Khaboom Taking on the editorship is brilliant news and has provoked a flurry of energy and excitement. We must give him the chance to do it in the time he has for it.
Print issues create problems of costs and payment. There is nothing to stop those acquiring the zine getting it printed and bound for their own pleasure.
