What do we think of the idea of having a forum calendar? One where members, or at least mods can enter info for certain dates to let us all know when a new episode of Dollhouse airs, or when the latest comic issue comes out! It would appear as 'Calendar' in the navigation bar. We could even add contest dates, and anything else pertaining to SlayAlive! Thoughts?

Sounds like a great idea! It'd be nice and easy way for people to get information.

That's swell. It would be very useful, a real timesaver.

I think it's a great idea. It would be easy enough to manage and keep up to date.

Great idea! We could include the comic issue release dates also.

Oh that would be awesome! Way easier than digging through threads looking for release dates.

I think it's a great idea. It will make it easier to check when the new comics come out and possibly when the Whedonverse star's birthdays are.

Great idea! I was thinking of bringing this up.
You could include: *Dollhouse Episode Dates *Buffy Season 8 release dates *Angel release dates *Whedonverse star birthdays *Dates for ends of contests or stuff like that
Just an idea..

Maybe also the actors appearing on other tv shows, movies, talk shows, etc.

Then it would just be Whedonesque, Edna.
I think it's a good idea, providing that it's just release of Whedony stuff such as Dollhouse episodes and Buffyverse comics.

Whedonesque gets spread WAY too thin sometimes. So if we do that, I'd want it to be very specific and not a lame update.

ok, so maybe it wasn't the greatest idea. It was just in case people wanted to keep up with their favorite stars.

No, the idea isn't what I was calling lame...just that sometimes on other sites they go too far with updates that almost no one would deem noteworthy.

So what do we consider newsworthy?
- Comic issue release dates - Dollhouse episode airings - Comic con dates (?)
What else?

Things that directly affect the Whedonverse and things we like. So if there was a release date for Dr. Horrible figures, or a new DVD...that would be important.
Whedonverse alums who appear in new properties, we could use that info for episode airings too. The same can be said for film releases too.
Convention dates would be cool, forum stuff like: contests and q&a records.

Since Ethan brought up the topic of stars, I think it'd be nice if we had a list of all the stars birthdays. I remember that thread a while back where everyone was talking about what Whedonverse stars had the same birthdays as members - it'd be cool if we had that all collected somewhere. Nice to recognize their birthdays and all. Not just the actors, but the writers too. Not necessarily for the calender...but maybe.

I've still got the list of Buffy actors birthdays that I posted in that thread, but I haven't got round to the Angel actors list. I haven't watched Firefly yet but I could probably get a list of those actors too and throw something together. Great idea for the calendar though, would make life alot easier. Some of the UK release dates might be different though...for example, Dollhouse hasn't actually been picked up here (yet) so hopefully when/if it does, we could post a UK air date.

The Calendar is now up! Only Staff may add notes, so if you feel like something needs to be added on a day, PM us! Currently, only SlayAliver's birthdays are noted, but rest assured that all mods and I plan on beefing up the SlayAlive Calendar with everything mentioned here!
