Hey guys! Here is a thread of announcements and suggestions that I have!

Wiki Records Closed

We have reached over 20 artists with Wiki Records and now (in compliance to our new rules), signing artists to Wiki Records is now closed. Tatertat has sent out messages to all managers with artists who were signed before June. She sent the messages on May 30 I believe so all users who recieved a message have until June 30 to get things going for their artists. Remember, you are allowed to take breaks if necessary. Please see the rule page for Wiki Records to review what we agreed on.

Users w/ Show Agreement

I have a new idea for users w/ shows! We agreed earlier that users who become inactive will have their shows put on hiatus for a month. I recommended that after the month, the show is open for temporary adoption, however, users didn't think it was fair to give away another user's show, so, I have another idea! I was thinking that every user w/ a show and then whenever a show gets picked up, they must submit their own official agreement. The agreement should state what they want for the show and what they want to do with the show in case they go inactive. It'd be like a contract or negotiation. Once written, the users must approve it and then it becomes final. This would go along with the pilot stage. Here are some examples of what an agreement could be like:


 * Jessie1010, High School Story Agreement - High School Story will be guaranteed two seasons or more. The show must be given 10 episodes or more per season. The show must be given a movie if the two seasons go well. In case of me going inactive before the show ends, I give the wiki permission to open the show up for adoption one month after I am marked as inactive.

Here is another example:


 * Jessie1010, G.I. Jennings Agreement - G.I. Jennings must be given 13 episodes or more per season. If G.I. Jennings makes it to four seasons, it must be given a movie. The show will not go past five seasons. In case of me going inactive, I give NYCgleek permission to take over the show. If NYCgleek is inactive as well, the show should be ended where I left off.

See what I mean? It'd be something like that. The wiki would have to agree on the agreement and once it's approved (it'd be approved along w/ the pilot being approved), it cannot be changed. An agreement can only be changed by the user who made the agreement.

With agreements, we'll be able to have a set in stone vision of where the show is headed and what will happen in case the user goes inactive. :)

Please tell me what you think of the agreements and if we should do it! I really think it'd help! We could also do these for movies! :)
