And kudos for John Lovin who has been in charge of the photocopying and has always done an admirable job. A last note covers this issue’s Top 1o list. Mike Evans submitted this week’s Top 10 list, and the best surprise about the list is it contains no baby eating whatsoever!

Send all submissions to shattered_beacon@hotmail.com. Now for the thank-you list.

If I missed anyone, I sincerely apologise and hope that you won’t beat me up *whimpers…* Ed the Editor Quote of the Issue “That’s wrong! You don’t blow up the orphanage, you Embrace the children” —Richard Hovey, upon reading last issue’s article on Camitus Contemplation Convention Outpost: a great sight that lists most big conventions http://www.oocities.org/TimesSquare/4677/ BABYNAMES.com: a great site that lists names by origin and meaning. Great for giving character just the right name http://www.babynames.com Top 10 List:Top 10 reasons that Malkavians should not have Temporis: 10. Let’s do the time warp again! 9. Morty: “I’m back!” 8.

This is the song that doesn’t end… Notes from On High On Newsletter Status It’s finally here, what you’ve all been waiting for, the rules and restrictions governing all Newsletter Status! Alright, now down to business. Five Positive Newsletter Status are handed out |
per newsletter, one for each of the first five individuals who submit something for that issue. In certain cases, more than five PNS will be handed out for other reasons (grunt work, exceptional submissions, etc.) but never more than one per person per issue. Negative Newsletter Status is also given for those who promise an article for a newsletter, but miss that issue and the next. There have almost been a few individuals that received NNS, but none who have crossed over the line so far. Hopefully, it will stay that way. The maximum PNS you can receive is based on your positions held (if any). For general members and those holding assistant chapter positions, the limit is five. Others are as follows: Position Limit Chapter or Assistant Domain 6 Domain or Assistant Regional 7 Regional or Assistant National 8 National or BoD Assistant 9 Board of Directors 10 Well, I hope this clears up all the confusion, misunderstandings, and whatnot. Ed the Editor The Contest, Part II Well, I have a good number of ideas for the title of the newsletter, but I can’t decide on my own. I figured that since you people will be the ones to read it, why don’t you vote on it. So here are the accumulated titles I have as of the third issue, presented in no particular order: News Beacon The Shattered Beacon Splattered Bacon Give Me A Minute The House of Wyld Shattered Souls Dark House of Wyld Shattered Souls The Beacon Shattered News |
