Who's the audience? No-one? Everyone?
What do you want to do with the magazine?
What does the group want to do with the magazine?
What does the audience want you to do with the magazine?
Independent? From what? Why? How?
Vision vs. Profit? Are they mutually exclusive?
Your ultimate agenda?

What's a catchphrase that describes your magazine?

Do you allow divergent opinions?

Games without audiences?
Or rather: audiences without games -> why doesn't the industry try something new?

*What's missing?*


No one talks. No one offers an opinion unless asked specifically. Why? (conversations without words / Words without question)

Single we talk, we question, we intrude upon others. As a group, meek and quiet and without words.
