Sorry about the delay. I was completely busy yesterday as I had a day off, so I just figured it would be best not to rush things and post today. Today, things are freezing. Ice is covering the road and traffic was horrid, so things are somewhat rushed after all, but that's fine. Again, I want to thank people for answering my plea for help. I have a wider selection of editorials to choose from now. In accordance with new guidelines within our department, after today I am going to have to begin being pickier about the editorials that I post. We are going for a quality over quantity method. I hope that this does not hinder people from submitting editorials, but I'm assured that it is for the best and believe that it will help things overall.

Today, we talk of classic gaming and character clichés. I want to officially welcome Cole Jones, formally of our Currents section, to editorials. Also, we have Carrie Kube bringing us a breakdown of RPG character types. Please read them both and share your comments in the forums. Also, do you think the quality of editorials should be held to a higher standard even if this leads to fewer (read: maybe none) editorials? Not that this is up for debate, but I would like your opinions. Please share.
