S.D I would be willing to conduct interviews with influencial players and with possibly rising stars and that kind of things, that's if you havent filled the position. I also am good at writing contraversial articles if you wish to spark debate?

Also a name possibility could be something like
Australian Smash Scoop?
Eye on Smash?
Smash News Australia?

You're hired!

First interview will probably be with Scabe on becoming a Mod, what it takes to be competitive with Link, his meteoric rise in the sydney scene and his fabled wailord.

Liam and I also want to do a section called "Cooking with Liam and Toby".

Trust us on this one. We'll finally be revealing our legendary cooking secrets, including the method of producing our fabled watermelon pasta.

Would you like me to help cover the Brawl angle of Thriller?
I sat to watch a lot of the high end matches in each of Doubles and Singles and commentated them.

Sounds good Luke + Vyse.

How's this for a name - AuSmash: I write for my friends.

I'm hoping the site will be completed soon and ready for **** to get published.

If its easier to just have one big story from vyse (might be a little less work on whoever is editing) thats gine as well...

Love to have you on board Ben, once the site is up it should be able to accomodate entries from anyone, I'll just be able to edit and approve them so it's easy either way.

Not to be negative or anything, but I don't really like that at all. It sounds cheesy/ughbad. Sorry! I did like Smash News Australia, though. Simple and effective. :3

Sadly, I can't think of anything better myself. :embarrass

UPDATE: The website is now functional and merely requires a little tinkering before we're ready to go. So people who expressed an interest in contributing please start covering your local tournaments and we'll go from there. I'll probably be addressing people individually over the next week or so.

Lol ok but sry, whats the link to the site again -_-
I'll put the link up when I've edited together the first bundle of articles. For now just send you articles to me via PM or email samuel.darroch@gmail.com. In future you'll be able to write directly to the site, but for this first one we'll do it this way.

Anyone should feel free to pitch an idea and contribute.

Tbh I was just gunna let you write about any smash topic you felt like and I'm sure it will be interesting to read about. Perhaps you could do your own observations column - a new area every week such as the garden maintanence on BF or the questionable distribution of unevenly sized weaponry to the cast and how it affects the combatants.

That being said I wouldn't mind someone writing an MLG article - where competitive smash has come from and where it's going now etc. Doesn't have to be you but if anyone is interested on writing something on that..

Got my first interview done with Dekar. I don't know the sizes your looking for so it's 8 questions long with short and long answers. I'll email it to you S.D tell me if changes should be made lengthwise.
Awesome! Nice work. I'll get to reading it as soon as my job interview stuff is over :)
