Awesome! When she mentions putting it on the boards as much as possible, would that be similar to how the JCW participated before, or is she asking for more from the boards? Aside from less contact with CQ on this forum, will anything really change in how the collab is conducted? That's great that she gave a good, detailed answer to you, though When did you neomail her about the collabs?

I think Carolyn neomailed her today, after the Editorial spoke about how she loved the Brightvale University collab. Also, maybe it's the idea of advertising the collaboration in other boards outside of Neopian Writers (Such as Art, Help, etc.) so as to reach a much wider audience that'd be interested?

Zoey- Hah!! xD That response is so wonderful. Twin keeps asking why I'm breaking into bursts of laughter. Twillie- On a serious note, I'm really pleased with how detailed she was. I even turned the screen to my twin and said, "wow. This is a very professional, very honest response." I'm really pleased to see this detailed of a correspondence email. It sets the tone for a solid relationship with the editor, and that makes me happier than I can say. From the looks of it, she'd like us to advertise the collabs even more than before, although I did make boards on the Art Chat, Av Chat, Charter, and Neopian Writers. I wasn't sure where else to post that would seem relevant. Help chat might consider it spam, after all. Maybe Virtupets? Or board seven? Some boards seem like a better place to advertise than others, but that's my two cents. Nonetheless, I'm sure the lot of us will figure out something. And yesterday, actually. I'm pleasantly surprised by her response time! Honestly, I don't think our method will change all that much, but to keep things from being complete chaos, I think theme voting should be left up to JCW and NTWF.

Carolyn Maybe the Other Worlds board or the Ideas and Suggestions board could suit the subject? We might also adapt the topic title and explanation so as to remain relevant to the boards, sound legit to those on them, and avoid any spam filters. For example, the Ideas and Suggestions board deals mostly with suggestions to TNT on improvements, and potential future ideas for users to discuss. Perhaps we could say something like, "Increase Neo Participation with NT Collab" or "Make Better Connections to TNT with NT Takeover." Same with the Other Worlds, like "Turn Neopia into a film de noir," or with any other potential board.

That was officially the best question I ever sent into the Editorial.
And Carolyn, that is excellent news! It's so wonderful that she wants to do collabs! She makes a point with everything be too close, but that was pretty much happen.
I seriously can't stop smiling, guys.

Other Worlds has turned into a bit of a "catch all" board now, with the factions from the obelisk war posting there, and I'm quite sure they wouldn't bat an eyelash with any NT related title. Help seems to have gotten a bit more lenient, also, and you could probably post something like "Want to help us with an NT collab?"

It does seem that she is doing her best to keep up.
^ This suggests that she's been working overtime.
I am glad that the special issues and collaborations will be continuing. Let's just give CQ some time to catch up, she has big shoes to fill and she knows it. <3

It's "Virtupets" that has all the Obelisk War faction boards, not "other worlds."
