Lakritze - the idea is a little 'summary' or update of goings on. Not everyone can log in every day, and for those that for whatever reason miss a few weeks or don't get a chance to log on as often as they'd like, a newsletter would be good for letting them know what they've missed and what's happening on the site.
I doubt it would be adding to the great site we have, but it would be a useful tool to remind people to check in, alert them to things they may have missed in the forums etc.

As for the frequency of distribution, I think monthly would probably be ok if lots of people write little bits, for eg a moderator from each forum writes a small tidbit of news from that forum or whatever, emails it through to the editor, who copies and pastes and before you know it, you've got a small but informative newsletter.

I dunno, but the idea's a good one!

I actually like the idea of a monthly newsletter. Some folks on Pixies as has been mentioned before only view one or two categories and if you do that you miss a lot of wonderful content. I think the best way to do it would be to have folks submit articles, lists, game ideas, polls...you get the idea. Then have a coupla folks go through and pick the best submissions and of course we'd need some "columns" regular articles written by the same folks every month.

All the time??????? Who on earth could you possibly be talking about?????? :p :D

I'm all for a newsletter. I have trouble getting here while I'm on campus due to the way the campus network is set up...firewalls and such. A nice newsletter would be awesome. Would it come to email or what?

I would imagine it'd be sent via email, yeah. It really only needs to be a text file, or even the body of the email - no need for flashy pics or anything, you get them at the site!
