MrsBillieJoe95 Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 Is there going to be an online version of it? I think that would be a great idea for those who aren't able to actually purchase the 'zine for those who are truly interested in the zine, I would imagine they would buy a physical copy even if it's available online

greendaytone Posted February 5, 2012 Author Posted February 5, 2012 That was quick service I got mine this morning! I have only flicked through it but it looks really great. I look forward to reading it from cover to cover later Edit: Just read a lot of it and I just thought I'd let you know about a few printing errors - in June the story about Kyle seems to be repeated and in July a whole page appears twice. But on the positive I really like the monthly recaps and it reminded me of lots of stories I;d forgotten had happenned and I really like the photos scattered about. Yeah we had a couple of printing errors. The duplicate July page was an oversight on my part. Sorry about that.... however, it those flaws do make this first pressing unique!
lizziebix Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 Yeah we had a couple of printing errors. The duplicate July page was an oversight on my part. Sorry about that.... however, it those flaws do make this first pressing unique! Oooh, a collectible issue! On the online discussion, you know you could still charge a small fee for it. Lots of websites charge for their pdf creations.
Fuzz Posted February 5, 2012 Posted February 5, 2012 I think for now we see a lot of value in creating something people can hold. I think maybe we could do an online version after we run out as an archive, kind of like we do with magazine articles.

I think maybe we could do an online version after we run out as an archive, kind of like we do with magazine articles. What about doing it after you run out of physical copies of an issue? I can pretty well take a guess that once you run out of physical copies of issues that are "outdated" (for lack of better vocabulary lol) that you're not going to pay to have them reprinted unless there's a really high demand (which I can only see happening if there's something that not many people were able to get a copy of and they all want it now) or something. Then again, I very well may be retarded and misunderstood you all around and basically repeated what you said, to which i wouldn't be surprised lol. my hair may be black in my profile picture, but I'm blonde deep down
Ingrid Posted February 6, 2012 Posted February 6, 2012 Just got the magazine in the mail! I think it looks amazing - love all the pictures and everything. Great work, you guys!
~ Walking Contradiction Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 I got mine this morning it looks great, I'll read it later!
Fuzz Posted February 8, 2012 Posted February 8, 2012 Just got boxes of them in and will begin shipping US orders today. If you got the zine + shirt, it'll be a while longer while we wait for the shirts to come in. If you just got the zine, it'll be on it's way in the next few days.
Cori Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 I got mine in the mail today! It looks amazing. You guys did a great job. I can't wait to read through it all!
J'net Posted February 11, 2012 Posted February 11, 2012 I just got mine today, too! Nice to see it all put together like this .
Tripe Posted February 11, 2012 Posted February 11, 2012 Got mine today, too! Thanks for the quick shipping, Andres. I've only had a chance to skim through it so far today, but it looks impressive. Very excited to see the crossword puzzle, J'net!! Fun stuff for the geek in me.
Bam-Itz-GreenDay Posted February 11, 2012 Posted February 11, 2012 Ordered mine yesturday along with rage and love wristbands <3 Excited to see the 'zine!
Tre_Gina Posted February 11, 2012 Posted February 11, 2012 man the crossword is hard - I'm still struggling with it!
J'net Posted February 11, 2012 Posted February 11, 2012 man the crossword is hard - I'm still struggling with it! Sorry! I was afraid it might be too hard because of the format (i just couldn't manage the traditional crossword where every letter crosses with another word - well, I could have, but it wouldn't have been a totally Green Day puzzle). In the next issue of the zine, whenever that appears, I'll provide the solution. In the meantime, if you get really stuck and want a hint somewhere, PM me . Who did the crossword? I confess ...
Fuzz Posted February 11, 2012 Posted February 11, 2012 I'm actually really looking forward to doing the crossword. Some of the hints were hard, but I honestly think that makes it better. Looking forward to the challenge. I think a cross-word puzzle for Green Day fans should be harder than something you'd find elsewhere.
Tre_Gina Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 Sorry!

I think it is good it isn't really simple as that would be boring. Whenever I'm on the sofa I pick it up and try and do a bit more. When it drives me totally mad I may ask for some clues....

When it drives me totally mad I may ask for some clues.... Oh, that's perfect feedback! I didn't want it to be boringly simple, but it's all Green Day and most people who buy the zine will know almost every fact in there. So, I tried to make some of the clues a bit less than obvious. Some of them are little "jokes" when you figure out the answer - hope you enjoy it! And I'll keep my eyes on my inbox to see if you ask for help .

That's what most regular 'zines/newspapers do!
Katarina. Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 I got the zine last week, and immediately started reading a bit of it. It's great! I knew there was a crossword puzzle in it, so I was excited to start on that as well! No more learning for my exam that day.. couldn't stop reading the zine/making the puzzle. You tell me if that's a good thing.. I confess ... I just wanted to say that I loved making the crossword puzzle! Thanks for making it, it honestly is the best Green Day related puzzle I made so far. Some of the "jokes" are so funny, I caught myself laughing out loud once I realized what you meant and I knew I got the answer! haha Well actually there are still 9 or 10 I need. You'll get a PM from me if I really can't think of the answers..

Not many people laugh at my jokes, so I really appreciate it when it happens! ;-)
stuart_and_the_ave Posted February 12, 2012 Posted February 12, 2012 I really want to get mine now to have a go at the crossword. I ordered the bundle though soI'll have to wait a bit longer.
