Time for a new editor and a serious talk with the editor-in-chief.

Gottach get the mess sort out first:

1) Talk to the editor-in-chief about him dropping the ball big time.

2) Figure out a refund option for advertisers, if possible.

Otherwise, I will be posting my article on my site.

My article published on my wiki since fabianhjr dropped the ball.

http://wiki.kibabase.com/Prying_Bitcoins

Yeah, I should change the license of my wiki to Unlicense.

I would do that right now but I have projects to work on. Maybe, tomorrow.

Apparently, I panicked. However, I will no longer be writing for The Bitcoin Times.

My reasons:

1. He decided to change it into a biweekly magazine.
2. Communication issue.
3. Perceived lack of professionalism.

My host had been down and no sign of it coming up soon. You will need to get it from MediaFire.

Issuing system gets changed. It will be upgraded to a blog like magazine.
I am now in charge of the Ads management which will be using the OperationFabulous service.(For the blog)

Status:
-chris quit, need an editor with excellent grammar.
-kiba, your job had been automated. Your writings are still really welcomed. Smiley
-I will resolve my hosting problem and maybe get a new hoster.
-Issue is published on time.

Please, even if it was biweekly it wouldn't be that of a big deal. The problem is that there were only 2 articles for this issue! One of which was a transcript of a podcast. You are still welcomed to write and get paid in BTC for you good writing, it will probably become a blog and go back to the original publishing model of auctioning 10 votes who get to choose what gets published and pay accordingly + a share of ad revenue for all of them.

I don't care about getting advertisement. That was supposed to be Chris' job, but I managed to grab at least one for him. I only want to write, not manage someone's magazine for them.

I wrote articles for all your issues up until now, but I don't like how it's being run.

You won't anymore, I am automating the process and it is going to be a blog with ads.(Instead of having to upload and tell when a new issue is out) It is the equivalent of changing from a version based release to a rolling release.

EDIT: it does, you get a 10% share.

Well, good luck.

I'll be writing for a rival magazine even if I have to start a magazine to do it.

You are still welcomed to write for it though. Wink
