*"Good game design" - Write an article on your theories of what makes a game good (the more specific and focused, the better).

*Interview - Conduct an interview with a member of the Qmunity
*Blast From The Past - Write an article about a trend or a topic of interest from the Qmunity's past. Perhaps an article on the lasting effects of a particularly influential QB game or website.
*Rant / Rave / Editorial - An opinion piece about something in the QB / FB scene that you especially like, or that pisses you off.
*Letter to the Editor - About the latest issue, or anything else that's on your mind (QB/FB-related).
