Title: blonde newsletter Post by: gatso on July 08, 2008, 09:35:30 PM I have vague memories of such a thing existing many moons ago. 2 questions
1- did such a thing exist or did I imagine it? 2- does it still exist? Title: Re: blonde newsletter Post by: TightEnd on July 08, 2008, 09:38:03 PM email newsletters have been periodically sent
is this what you refer to? after the recent server upgrade we're in the process of sorting out a new mail server which will allow more consistent delivery..the rpevious server was unrelaible and for various reasons the newsletter didn't reach some people Title: Re: blonde newsletter Post by: gatso on July 08, 2008, 09:41:50 PM I don't think I've received one for about 2 years tbh.
was just thinking about how I rarely know when there's something happening on the cardroom, I know that these things exist, just never know when they are. either a thread starts on here really early and I'm oblivious to it by the day the game's happening or a thread's started really late so it gets missed. a regular newsletter should sort that to some degree, might get numbers up. Title: Re: blonde newsletter Post by: TightEnd on July 08, 2008, 09:42:47 PM I agree, and the new mail server gets us on the case

Would a newsletter suffer from both of those? (Too early/too late) Maybe a page listing all cardroom events?

(Too early/too late) Maybe a page listing all cardroom events? obv too late is too late whatever medium you use. too early, not a problem with a newsletter as you know it's in your email inbox if you want to check when something is happening, a lot easier than trying to find a single thread amongst hundreds of recent ones on the forum. a page listing all cardroom events is great if kept up to date but should really be as well as, not instead of both a newsletter and forum threads as I'm pretty sure (correct me if I'm wrong but I doubt it) that the number of users who are regularly on the main site rather than the forum is disappointingly low. |
