I thought the character limit was 26000-something with v4. I've never tested it myself.
I loved Ennui's art/literature column, and PJ's Games-related rant was funny.

Congratulations to all involved. Excellent.
I hope the 667er continues for a long time.

I read the editorial and the MM thing. They were good.

This is really good... except about nina's most popular thing. She just put people in the order of who got nominated. And I nominated myself just for fun.

This is very, VERY good. Everyone who's involved should be proud.

*appluase*Nice job guys, I enjoyed it a lot! This will be one newspaper I enjoy reading! Is it really? I've been posting fanfiction with the assumption I can only fit 10, 000 characters in. Maybe that's why I assumed that a certain chapter of something would turn out into 5/6 posts, and it was only 3. V4 changed it, apparently. I found out when I tried to make my "longest post evar". 25,000, is it? I believe it's somewhere around there, because I know my longest post ever was over 25,000 and I had to use two posts. Same with Pan.

Excellent. Pure brilliance. The staff itself is noteworthy; it consists of the most brilliant 667 writers.
If it wasn't for my workload, lack of originality and talent, then I would love to submit something.

Wow. It's really good. I was SUPPOSED to put my random things column in this issue, but I had to go away this weekend. But it's okay, I'll have more time to perfect it for next week's issue. Yaay, Akbar! This was an AWESOME idea!

Heh. SUCK ON THAT, AKBAR. He was having a whinge yesterday about how only a few people would read this, and it would be the same boring people every week. I'm glad he was proved wrong.

It was great. Congrats to all the writers, and especially Akbar.
Like J, I've got a pretty big workload, but is it all right if I write something on the rare occasions that I have time to write? You could call it freelance or something.

OK, was it really necessary to bring the bashing going on in this thread over to here, after I've already explained why I find it offensive and asked you to stop? A fair objection. Write an angry letter to the Editor about it. Then we can have a letters to the Editor section! Akbar, what do think? I think you should advertise for letters (PMs) to you as Editors over all the issues of 667... Congratulations, everyone. PJ, your optimism was shrewd...

Write an angry letter to the Editor about it. Then we can have a letters to the Editor section! Perhaps we should write an unbiased article about the entire thing... I shouldn't do it, I'd never be able to resist calling a bunch of people some unpleasant names. George, you up to it?

I'll accept freelance articles and letters to the editor, if they're PMed to me by 4:00pm GMT on Saturday.
Cel, we are insulting Nina's stupidity, not Christianity. I'm sorry if you got offended.
