Hi Nitromians,
You may have noticed that we did not do a Friday Update last week. We were talking about it on Friday between the staff at Nitrome and decided against posting it because we didn’t want people to miss the Test Subject Complete trailer. This also led to a deeper discussion about the Friday updates in general. I wanted to share the highlights of what we discussed:
Friday updates block less frequent visitors from seeing the main news of the week.
Friday updates do not always have anything worth mentioning.
Friday updates are supposed to be a weekly round up and also let people know what is coming the following week. The problem is we often run out of time and don’t agree what to show the next week so it is rushed.
It was suggested we could better cope with Friday Updates if we moved it to Monday mornings when we would have more time to put out something worth mentioning.
It was suggested that we don’t post anything unless we have something worth mentioning.
It was highlighted that if we do not post a feature weekly that we may end up telling the fans less….having a fixed day of the week keeps us aware that we should post something.
So the purpose of this post is to ask you guys and gals what you think. Do you like the Friday updates?….do you think any of the internal comments are valid? Do you have any ideas of your own on how we could do this better…or should we just scrap it?
Just so you don’t all miss out on the news. Coming up soon we want to start showing off a new i.p. we have been working on alongside Test Subject Complete. We also want to give you all a much requested update on Icebreaker which we have been a little quiet on.
