Received my issue in the mail today and all I can say is that top 100 will get people talking!

I was around when part (if not all) of the list was being worked on and I can tell you that people were talking then. I know that some of us argued for some of the games to be on that list. I know I personally argued for Brain Games to be on there, but I doubt he added it. I have to get this issue just for this list alone.

Amen to that Jess! I knew things weren't going well when the issues would come out every 6+ months. That was a sign of one of two tings... either the 'zine was getting the axe or a change in ownership... I like the stuff Al has been putting in the 'zine to change it up. Just a bummer that we're missing out on the writings of a great guy like Russ.

 

I have to get into that list and examine it more... I guess when you have a top 100 (out of about 600) there are going to be some questions arising from readers. Maybe that's what Al is going for here... to generate interest in discussion and help invigorate (sp?) the 2600 readership! (And perhaps get a few more people to read the 'zine!)
