I personally like the idea of being vague to the point where simply "Issue Four" becomes meme-like. It certainly is implied that it contains things mankind is not meant to know, but the variety of letters to the editor (of which I wrote most, heh) also suggest that maybe it was mind-blowingly offensive, moronic, or horrifying.

It's sort of like a shoggoth.

I will mention the now non-existent Issue #4, but I don't want it to eclipse the issue itself.  I will mention it in the editorial, and will include letters to the editor about it, but otherwise it will be business as usual.

We can also include letters about Issue #4 in subsequent issues as well... no reason it should die so quickly.

I agree. I'd rather let the Issue #4 drama be spread out, for the sake of extra lulz and ++SUBTLETY

Anyway, Law of 5s. Generally when we use that phrase on PD.com we're making fun of people seeing connections where none exist. Is that the tack we're taking here? If so, that pic someone posted somewhere about the word "Nazi" and turning it into a swastika or something might be relevant.

LMNO

YOu could probably approach it from several angles.

Sure, the FAIL part is fun, but the fact that is is absolutely necessary for existence should be mentioned, as well.

I would like to tackle it from all sides, both pro and con.  Otherwise, what is the point of it being a magazine?

If you only see the FAIL, then I think you might be missing the point...

No, I know there is another side to the Law of 5s. I just don't have as much fun talking about it.

So, is anyone interested in writing any pieces concerning the Law of Fives?  Even if it only vaguely touches on the subject, or is a bizarre angle on the topic?

If so, PM me with it so I can get started...
