The 667er (magazine)

From 667 Dark Avenue

The 667er is a weekly 667 magazine, published and founded by Akbar Le Grey, who is also its Editor-in-Chief.

History

The 667er was founded by Akbar Le Grey, as a weekly magazine for the members of 667. He remains its publisher and Editor-in-Chief. He made a thread about it, offering jobs to anyone interested. An avalanche of PMs reached him. The columnists featured in the 667er's first edition (published September 18th, 2005) were: Akbar Le Grey, PJ, George, Ennui, James, Sixteen and Derik. The 667er has had many occasional contributors, as well as a few faithful journalists who have submitted an article nearly every week.

Although sometimes slightly controversial, mainly due to Akbar's editorials, the 667er has enjoyed a high degree of popularity on the forum, and is, by now, quite famous on a forum-wide scale.

Features

A new edition of the 667er is published every Sunday in Chaotic Creativity. Only one feature that was published in the first edition of the 667er has remained constant to this day: the rant. Other than that, the following articles have been featured in the 667er at some time or the other during its history:

- Jemima's unadvice column

- The interview (formerly done by Linda, then done by PJ for a while)

- A weekly aSoUE update (written by Sixteen; this column has fallen into disrepair since Sixteen resigned)

-A weekly review of FF, CC, and AA, outlets of creativity (formerly written by Ennui. This column was only written for a few weeks.)

-WTF? (an editorial formerly written by Dupin. This column was only written for a few weeks.)

-Word up in da hood (A gossip column written by Charlotte for several weeks)

-Things you ought to know lest you evaporate (a rather morbid column started several weeks ago and written by Skeleton Key)

-The Subjective Flaneur (written by an anonymous female member. This column gives off spurts of news and opinions and prompts Tragedy to take action when he is slacking.)

-Polls (written by Grace for several weeks)

-Games (written by Ligeia for several weeks)

-Editorials (written by Akbar whenever he has something to say)
