Very cool, whats almost disappointing though is where are all the EVA'ers and responses.
This is being done for all of us and makes the site even better, not too mention its a lot of work for those involved to make it better for us.

Some responses, ideas, crits would be good. Comon guys, I know you have some.

This is a great time to rebuild everything in a good way. Wheres the support!?

This looks great guys. Can I also add a request to keep the schedule stickied and hotlinked at the top of the home page so that we can flip between these categories?

So you'd like a link to the most recent update through this post? I think that would be doable...

update: and done. Check the first post. I've added links to all the most recent stuff.

I hate scedules. But that is by no means a slant against this post. I blame work.

Nice to see a detailed plan of how things will be presented throughout the week though.

Any chance we can get a split on Tuesdays? I would like to see at least 1 weekly review, and at least 2-3 previews as well as a piece on "Rumours".

Get to it, *chop chop*!

That's a great break down of the weekly updates. I agree, I think it should be stickied, or at least placed somewhere at the top of the page where it's easily accessible for all to see.

Also, I have a question: What happened to the weekly comic book reviews and release list? I really enjoyed those!

Out of curiousity, is there nothing for Wednesdays, or is that our "vacation" day? :p

Unless you've got an idea?

Would there be interest in having Popular Opinion on a schedule? I've been doing it every week or two, but I can probably bring myself to doing it more regularly. Just posted the latest one (http://www.evilavatar.com/forums/showthread.php?t=69874) today (a Wednesday), and Wednesday is looking free.

I'd be willing to do a comics "highlight" release list if people were interested. I couldn't do reviews though. It'd just be "why lost loves DC".

I'd be interested in seeing you do a weekly comic roundup.
