What would be the best redirection after you use the logout button?

5 days might be alittle much, I am pretty sure the people here are good readers and it will not take 5 days to read the updates. 2-3 days would be fine.

I voted for the 5 days option. I want to read the thing when it's updated and I won't be able to read it all in just one day.

You're only going to read it once in the five days. And it only takes ONE click to go from the logout screen to the webzine. Once.
Just give us a message to player accounts when it's updated. The message stays there for five days if you don't remove it, right?

Yeah, but some people don't read all of it in one day.
Just because you're older, smarter, stronger, more talented... doesn't mean you're BETTER.

I tend to agree with Nick this time on the fact that it's only one click to get back to it...

If it's up for 1 or 2 days as we logout, that'll be long enough to let us know, "hey, new webzine out!" and then if you don't read it all in those first 1 or two days, it won't be hard to click the link to finish reading it. You don't have to read it all in one day anyhoo. :P The link is right there, ya know... ;)

How about the link on the logout page saying "Cantr Webzine - last updated...". That way, when you log out, you've got all the information you need to decide where to look next.

That wouldn't catch people's attention, I don't think.
Some people let their characters starve to death without even noticing they were hungry.

I'll just be happy if the forums link in the player page was fixed. It was broken, so I was using the main page to access the forums, but then the webzine somehow replaced the main page? Maybe we can have a side menu on the player page that says:
Main page
Forums
Faq
Webzine...

Something like that.

I know I've been skimping on my forum-going recently, almost entirely because the logout doesn't go to the front page any more.
