So I noticed we've not got that many logs going up for Season 3. It looks like there are still plenty of people posting small logs on the youtube videos so perhaps we should link them here as well? After all this little forum is here specifically to record the logs as far as I'm aware. I'd also love to see some logs from people actually on the avenger but either this crop is shy or disinclined to log! The site gets reasonable traffic in daily guests to suggest people might enjoy this kind of material so perhaps we merely need to try and be more visible?

Don't think it'd hurt to advertise a bit on youtube videos, but probly shouldn't over do it... What'd really help is if odd made an account here and linked it in the video desc or mentioned it in a video.

Yeah. I've just been linking the site every time I post a log in the youtube video comments. Still it'd be nice if we get a few more people actively writing. We've not currently got anyone from the actual avenger! I think maybe after season 1 some people lost interest perhaps? Or they merely aren't inclined to write logs or offer to do so for other soldiers. I'm just doing them myself due to my abundant spare time and out of a desire to improve my writing skills It'd be nice if Odd popped by though! I imagine he's quite busy though with the channel and his job then balancing home and leisure!

Well you got my attention. I'll post here as well as on youtube and link this site so that others might pick up the trade again. Seems like it will be fun around here if we get the party started.

Huzah! Plus you're actually on the avenger It will most definitely be fun reading more entires on here. After all the youtube comments swallow everything up so this is a good place to preserve it all.

would be making logs, but since one of my guys is locked up and the other probably has no chance of ever being discovered, I'm kinda at a loss as to if I should write or not

redranger, you should probably just find a character you like and start posting for them. If the creator of that character wants to start making posts, they will contact you, i'm sure. If you really feel uncomfortable with taking over the logs of another person's character, you could just put a disclaimer at the end of every log you make for them saying that the creator can take over if they like, just send a message. I know a lot of the characters have no logs for them, so it should be easy to take someone over. Just not mine. : D Let me know if you want any tips for a character or something.

I think that's a good suggestion. A lot of people used to write logs for other characters and more often than not had their creators blessings. It can be a tad daunting to try and take over someone elses vision of their character but half the time that person likely isn't even paying active attention! If they are they'll more than likely contact you and probably give their blessing. Personally my charachter design is from before he started using any mods. His backstory is reasonably generic. I doubt if he ever shows up Odd will ever pick him as a result. But I still enjoy writing from his perspective this season. I spent last season purely from advents perspective which was a nice change. Frankly anything you want to write about within the current events of his playthrough could be great. Maybe write pieces from the perspective of VIP's? You could also write from some poor shmuck stuck in a resistance radio room reacting to panicked cries for hlep from resistance havens under attack. I know people used to log even for the scientists and engineers on board
