Re: [Audyssey] Audyssey Magazine
you are right there tom. If you still think there is a need then I'll definate like to help edit it. If we are serious in turning this magazine from old crappyness into the wow I had about 10 years ago we need a few things. 1. A group of editers and such that handle things, true a lot does come from the forums on audiogames.net. We also need people that will search the net for info and have enough time to do some of this. Next we need some sort of format. my idea is a html web page complete with headings as well as a text document. We should also concidder electronic braille though I have no idea how to produce it. We need an audio podcast, not necessarily the entire magazine but reviews, dev news articles etc so the people we read have more than the speech synth so to speak. We need exposure to though I am not sure what to do there. We need a bit more than blind games here. mainstream gaes and the blind, maybe expand into technology for gamers, that is accessable or that has good writeups or things. Things would include headsets, mice, joysticks and game pads. os spaciffic especially with the xp-ers like myself moving to 7 and 8 especially 8 where their security uac really means old games will have some issue. we have the japanese games and other language games and then there are all the tablets iphones androids, I may end up on a nexus, because of price and such. Then we need to keep it all going. And we need to be constant. we need also something in vms and vertual machine software. I'm not saying that its easy, but we need to. I can previde the following resources right now. 1. a folder for submitions of stuff in dropbox maybe, if this gets off the ground and I have to pay for a subscription then I may have to impose a small fee maybe a buck well 50 cents to a dollar to keep things going if I ever need it though text and other stuff is small. I am willing to try to set a site though to be honest, I am not made of cash but if I get a server in the future I may invest in it down the road. I can make a wordpress blog for the mag though I know audyssey has a server so maybe thats ok. I have time to do things as long as I get them a day in advance so I don't get lumped, holidays excluded though I will recieve submitions at any time ofcause real life things like house modifications and things will get in the way. Reviewing games. I can do this to maybe, at least have a hand at it though I never got my hd card in the new box ballenced right. Right now I can previde the dropbox and a promise of more if I am able. I have a job that requires a paypal and when I get a debit card depending on finances I could start donating 10-80 maybe 100 a month but that would be my limit. Ofcause I can't really do this just with myself, I will eventually need more space, and other things some wf which I may be able to cover myself some of which I may need assistance with. Then there are the games, if devs could give free coppies of games to be reviewed that would make it a bit better rather than buying games my resources are not limitless. This excludes tablets and companies which has prices of 10 bucks or less but even so. Any extra hardware ofcause will have to come from somewhere and with several family retiring in the next 2 years or less, funding is going to majorly reduce to a fraction of what i can currently afford. If people want to keep the mag going I'll gladly try to take up the rope but its not lone ranger, I will need help more than me and my little resources to keep it going.

Many people who are busy with work, family, and other aspects of day to day life don't necessarily want to spend all their time browsing the forum or reading the list. For them the Audyssey Magazine is a nice quarterly summary of what has been going on in our community complete with news, reviews, and other things that may not be on the list or the forum. Any failure in the Audyssey Magazine in any of those areas is really the fault of the editor for not providing a consistent schedule and possibly for not encouraging enough readers to submit new content.

Re: [Audyssey] Audyssey Magazine
Well you sertainly have hit the zombie right there. I know our local blind org has experimented with audiogames sertainly knows about them. Would they publish an interesting mag, probably but I am not sure about the reviewing process. We would need editers and people in all countries that had orgs at least it would use fewer resources. Now how many would be interested would be the thing. Especially if there are those that think the poor blindies can play asabat games or games that support something else and not the normal games probably wouldn't care. At any rate we don't want the poor, super mentally mangled blind as the image for the magazine. How many organisations have been excluded, I am not sure but with the attitude going round I suggest enough to make a dent righ there. I am also not a socal blogger, I have a twitter for viewing tweats and a wordpress but find it hard to write on either. I wouldn't hold myself to post something per week, its really hard to do. To be honest my local org is only just now investigating nvda as a reader that is not jaws only now. How long the review processes will take and how long would it take to geet a rejection if ever it surfaced again. And the coverage. in the news released last month, the mention of nvda was 2 lines. 1 its being investigated 2. it has some issues which jaws does not have. and there you go. no description of what the issues were nothing. Its a pitty. Immediately I wrote to the devs to solve this and was requested info. A trackback found no one to talk to at all, and this worries me. Its a flat rejection right there. at least officially. Ok, so I know now nvda eventually came out but no publication what so ever. My suspician is the poor blind, super blind, mental blind, and stupid dumb helpless blind nut which has been growing thicker and thicker may be a quite hard nut to crack and will need a godly sized hammer to smash if it can ever be smashed. Yes its todays world but the old habbits still exist in some shape or form. I am not confordent that anyone will change without rocking the blindy boat unless there is a reason and sertainly nothing big. I am not saying don't try but still. The next we can do is try to get with magazine distributers themselves. Now a spaciffic blindness mag has no market value I tried to get a mag I read blind use. So we would our mag as a section of a mag if we ever got it going. Now that may not happen either. We would need someone in each contry to represent us at events and such. But mainstream events who would play a blindy games when there is graphics. Blind games are after all crap to sighted, maybe not all but enough that it would not make it a worthwhile thing at least not without some major something. And it all comes to cash to. I don't think any of us has millions of dollars, the sighted on here may have more resource. But us poor blindies really don't all have work and may be dependant on handouts and schemes. In fact if I did not live at home I probably wouldn't have resources to even go online! At least not broadband. The abismal fact is we need a large ammount of capital to even start sinking this no matter the running costs of this. That is if we want to expand. We can expand right now but its going to be different. 1. I hate facebook and twitter but someone not me well ok if no one else will do it I will, needs to be able to stay online 24/7 and handle the mag on social media. That is hard enough. we need more forums than the audiogames forum. game devs need to have the magazine on all their networks. We need to put the mag to as many places online at once and as quick and as regular as we can. That may trickle down, but its not garanteed to be honest. Next we need to contact orgs to see if they will even carry the mag as an interest and thats it or at least link to it. That may get a responce especially with libraries going digital. The distribution with organisations is another step, but if they approved that. there are blind consumer organisations courses, etc, there is potentual for distribution right there if we could get that far. Now thats fine and good, but we need to get the mag outside the blindness community if we are able to make a dent. the web distribution should be easy enough the rest will be the problem and even then. Next we need the media. Thats good and bad. We need coverage constantly or at regular intivals online on news articles on on broadcasts. We do not need the poor helpless blind playing games by asabat and jaws, yuck yuck yuck!!! We need power. large power! How to get it is the issue. If we pulled all resources, I wander how much we could put in if we really thought about it. maybe we could spread this to the forums on audiogames.net, that would open up a few more people as I said before. However the disabled really have no resources thats why we are disabled, most of the cash a lot of us get is from normals so normals
