Like I mentioned in my other thread, I am starting a gaming site with the sole intention of getting a media badge for PAX 2011.
If any of you guys want to be writers you can submit shit that I will approve along with a couple of my friends who are also helping me out.
But it needs a name first.

I wanted to do something with -squid in it (kind of a tribute to doodthing  cjlubdoods;), like bitsquid, but bitsquid.com/.net were both taken. So yeah something like that and if you can think of a good one I'll send you one of my PAX shirts or one of those containers for Duke Nukem Steroids or something  giggle;

What sort of writing sample would be acceptable? I wrote this Mafia 2 demo impressions thing (kinda dated since the game is out) that I have sitting around. I always write stuff like that and share it with my friends, might touch it up and send it your way. What's your opinion on profanity? I have a few choice words in it, that I could easily replace if you want to keep your site E rated.

prosquid isn't taken has a nice ring to it.

"kotaku, joystiq, prosquid, IGN, 1up..."
kinda fits.

Yeah definitely send me anything you want, since honestly we just want as much content as we can get. I'm hoping we can average at least an update a day after a month or so. And it's mostly going to be editorials and commentary on recent vidya news (there are already tons of sites that have the news, so we wouldn't stand out if we just reposted that stuff), so anything that sounds natural and not forced (in terms of profanity) it will be cool.

And I actually really like prosquid, I'll run it by my friends and see what they think.
