http://strawpoll.me/3562537 No.9
how about the dead canary society? or dead canary sings?
Old Miners used to carry canaries into coal mines to warn of dangerous levels of methane. If the canary died, it was time to get the fuck out.
Society has become toxic. It is up to us to alert others and show the way.
pic related. it's what a dead canary might look like.

>how about the dead canary society? or dead canary sings?Something like this sounds good.
Here's one:
The Glasgow/Mississippi Tales.
It's a play on The Canterbury Tales. Glasgow represents how our stories will probably be darker and more violent than most of the Canturbury tales. The Mississippi river, like the internet, connected many groups of people over great distances.
No.119
>>9It seems unfitting of a publication of this sort to have 'Dead' in its name. The Late Canary sounds more acceptable, in reference to a call unheeded, but it's ambiguous, and might imply outdatedness. Perhaps something to convey neglect or inattention of a signal would work in a more pleasing manner.
>>118Using locale names might leave the impression that the content predominately either originates or concerns the mentioned area.
No.121
>>8How about Interregnum? Between kings would be an apt metaphor for how many of us view the world
No.124
Please, please no national socialist references or iconography.
I think something like "The 8ch.net Chronicle" would be the most inviting.
No.126
>>121I like this. It's provocative without being explicitly political.
Since we're on Infinitechan, maybe something with "Infinite" in the title?
No.127
>>126Eternal Interregnum?
No.135
Okto Chanaleon - Greek
Octo Alveo - Latin
Al-Mhatta At-Temen - Arabic
No.137
What about something with /pen/ in the title like:
Pendulum (left/right)
Penitentiary (as in the free your mind)
And others conveniently located in your nearest online dictionary.
No.145
>>121>>127Eternal Interregnum is my favourite so far
No.184
Edelweiss
/thread
No.188
Pertinent /Pen/s?
No.203
Logos magazine
No.239
>>9>>119I really dig that analogy. The miners digging a deeper and deeper leading our downfall. The little skeletons ever trying to warn the miners, but left ignored in their little cages.
The Late Canary has my undivided vote
No.242
No.275
>>239The miners digging a deeper and deeper leading our downfall. The little skeletons ever trying to warn the miners, but left ignored in their little cages.
If that is the case, why not something like Cassandra's Omen/Prophecy?
For those of you who are unaware Cassandra was a Trojan woman who predicted the fall of Troy but no one would believe her, for she had been cursed by Apollo whom she scorned. No.287
>>127>>145Sounds too fedoracore
>>239Yes
No.289
Wait, we're making a magazine? Are we actually publishing it in paper or what?
>>137I like Pendulum
No.290
No.292
No.294
The magazine will still be going ahead, but at the moment we need to focus on getting the user base up. The number of works posted here have been relatively low.
No.333
Some ideas:
- Compositions from the Interregnum
- Penitentiary Correspondence
and a second vote for
- The late Canary
No.373

Hey admin, what do you guys have in mind for the magazine itself?
How many works per issue?
How often are you going to release new issues?

Personally I'm fond of either "Top Kek" or "Interregnum"
No.410
I like the word Contrarian, gives our writers plausible deniability, also it kinda embodies chan culture.

I think Anathema magazine would rule, the definition pretty much fits us.
