liz_marcs | cubed_music is now Live and On the Air

Thanks for the feedback on the request everyone!

I'm officially throwing open the doors for

cubed_music, aka, Music from the Cube.

Please be sure that you read the FAQ before you sign up.

Everyone who joins will have posting access so they can upload their own CD reviews. Thus far, I've already approved two members

idhren24 and

h4nselel who should be able to see the locked posts as well as post their own reviews.

There's already a post there (by moi) that covers Randy Newman and the Squirrel Nut Zippers. You know you're in if you can see the post.

Please note: I've set the security settings to FRIENDS ONLY, which means that the posts are automatically locked down. I don't know if watching the community alone will allow you to see the posts or comment. You may have to join in order to see the contents of the journal.

So...I guess that's it.

cubed_music is officially taking off as of 8 p.m. EST.

ETA: Before I forget,

cubed_music has a LastFM community. In essence, the communities over on LastFM allow all the members to "pool" their playlist to create a radio station.

As of 9:45 p.m. EST, the

cubed_music radio station went live (thanks

sunfell for the assist in joining!). If more than 15 people join, the community will get its own music charts.

Membership on the LastFM community is open all LastFM members.

The community radio station is public, which means that anyone (both members and non-members of LastFM) can tune in for a listen.

Flat | Top-Level Comments Only

On the FAQ:

Can I join Music from the Cube?
If you wish to join ~~to join~~ Music from the Cube, simply click on the "join community" link on the Community Information page. Once you are approved by the moderator(s), you will be able to see the posts. In addition, you'll be able to comment and make posts yourself.

And also, yay! You've worked a lot on this community, I hope things work out ok :)

Is fixed!

And I've added you, so you're all set for viewing, commenting, and posting access.

Thank you, and I know how freakishly exhausting writing guidelines and FAQ'a can be, so I just thought I'd point it out, save you the trouble of someone misinterpretting the whole thing because of it :)

Yay, I'm all joined :p

It took me a month to write them. Gah! I'm just glad the whole set-up process is over, because that took a little longer than I thought it would.

Well, that, and I wasn't sure about the communities future after the Great LJ Strikeout. I had to think hard about where I was going to put it, but since most of the people who are interested are on LJ, I decided to keep it here and leave it ad-free. There really aren't any special bennies that make it worth paying for a community, to be honest.

I was going to get a paid account for my birthday last week, but then I was all, nah-huh, it's not worth it.

I'd be glad to lend a hand if you wanted/needed, I'm not a tech-y mod,though, never have been, I stuck to guidelines and make sure the rules weren't being broken.

I'm holding off on appointing other mods until I see what the traffic is like. I'm not actually expecting it to be that bad.

I'm not expecting anything techie, since all the technical issues are pretty much ironed out at this point. It would be more content and trolling issues that would come into play.

If the community ever hits above 100 members tho', that could very quickly change. I'll definitely keep you in mind if I need help.

Believe me, you'll get there in no time. Now, is that a good or a bad thing? *hee*

Yay! Some good news! The community's LastFM radio station just went live (http://www.last.fm/group/cubed_music). You don't have to be a member to listen to it even. ^_^

Are you glowing? I bet you are. This comm is SO your baby :)
