Paying to Copy Edit Y2

[Rhialto]

I would be willing to pay Black Chicken Studios for the privilege of copy-editing the text of Y2, in order to make sure that it is properly written. This would, I hope, allow BCS to better focus upon the coding of Y2 for its release and speed up Y2's release. I would be willing to be legally bound by any contract that BCS might choose to impose upon me related to the guarding and destruction of any Y2 texts that they might send me. Furthermore, I would naturally buy a copy of Y2 upon release.

I ask only the following three considerations be shown to me.

1. That I be granted flexibility in terms of returning edited text of Y2. My work for Academagia is a hobby only.

2. That I be permitted to add this copy editing for Y2 to a resume, if I wish.

3. If my request be dismissed as insane/unworkable, that I not be banned from this forum and that some concrete statement be made for all fans' benefits about Y2's progress.

@Legate of Mineta, feel free to PM me with any deal or harsh words against me that the Team deems best.

If the Team was looking for part-timers I suspect they'd have reached out to us, as they did for the DLC 17 beta.

[Legate of Mineta]

And almost certainly we will for the next beta. No charge.

[Rhialto]

@Legate of Mineta: Any updates about when the next beta may be ready?

[Legate of Mineta]

Rhi;

Not yet!

[freespace2dotcom]

So, legate. Here's a question about the beta that doesn't involve a time frame:

Has the team discussed the checkpoint at which Y2 should be put into beta status yet?

[Legate of Mineta]

It's been discussed, but it's not yet.

@freespace2dotcom: What do you mean by check point?

[Schwarzbart]

checkpoint here probably means what must be finished and or in working condition from the game to declare its time for a more open beta phase.

That.

@Legate of Mineta: I would be willing to pay for access to copies of the Team's world-building documents.

Rhi;

For that, you'd have to wait past Year 5 and a *lot* of editing time, but otherwise...;)

I could easily edit the copies that I would see and send copies to the Team, sparing them this labour.

[Legate of Mineta]

Hahaha, oh, but the questions you would generate...it's never that simple.

I could promise to ask no questions.

[Legate of Mineta]

Mmm-hmmm.
