Small Announcement

[subluxate]

I spoke with arrogance, the maintainer of the community for the past four years, on Sunday, intending to bring up what's been going on recently, as well as maintaining the memories and such. She's no longer interested in M*A*S*H, and offered me the position of maintainer. I accepted, and wanted to let everyone know about the change.

I'd also like to ask for a couple of volunteers. I'm coming up on a final and midterms, not to mention two papers, and if anyone could assist with going through and adding fics and other posts to the memories or tagging them, I'd really appreciate it.

Now, a few questions. Is there anything you'd like to see here? Should the userinfo be changed (it will be altered, at least a bit, later), and if so, how? Do we need a new layout? I'm willing to spring for a paid account to get us a really great layout, if anyone will make it. What about a mood theme? Do you want any sort of impromptu challenges or contests? Input is endlessly valuable; let me know what you think, and changes, assuming they're wanted, will be implemented.

Thanks in advance, everyone. I'm much nicer than I sometimes seem, and if you have concerns about anything, feel free to e-mail me at hawkeyecat@livejournal.com, or message me. On Y!M, I'm bluearcher85; AIM, it's rogue12885.

Dude, I cannot tell you how bitchin' it is to have a mod who is active in the community.

1) I am more than willing to help out with tagging and adding to memories. However, I think it would easier to ask people to tag some of their past fics, at least the recent ones. I'm sure people would be willing to tag some of their own.

2) I'd like to see a more communal feeling around these parts. I remeber when all of the mash-slash listers moved to LJ and we were all friends and everybody knew everybody. It wold be nice to have that again.

3) A new layout and a mood theme would be cool. I am pixally-challenged, so I'm no help on this front.

4) As far as the userinfo goes, I think a list of links to related comms and sites would be bitchin'.

5) Where is this allusive fife?

1) Tags are actually done. xmusic_angelx and I did that today or yesterday or whatever. However, the "misc" tag needs to be better sorted. If you could help out with that, it would be lovely. As far as memories, we're doing it by pairing or character, and the format for the label is, "[author] Title, Part X of Y (rating)."

2) Post challenges, discussions, whatever. If you can think of a way to restore the communal feel, more power to you. I'm just far too tired at the moment to do anything about it.

3) We have a new layout, at least for now. Thoughts? The mood theme will come later this week, when I can get my credit card and buy an account for the community.

4) Will do. Any comms in particular?

5) hawkeyesmartini may know, but she hasn't mentioned the fife lately.

3) The background kinda does this white flashy thing when I scroll. It might just be on flatscreens.

4) mash100th and hashbash are all I can think of now.
