You joke, but this isn't the first time I thought "You know, I really need X for my game..." only to have Pyramid publish that exact article, though usually it's Douglas Cole who writes those articles.

Is my brain playing tricks on me or is the Eidetic Memory column by David missing?

I don't think your brain is tricking you. That's odd.

It's just not labeled as being Eidetic Memory. Look at the first article in the issue.

Maybe I should have been more explicit: "Instead of an Eidetic Memory, David Pulver headlines this month's issue..."

It was just a curious anomaly I noticed. :-)

It's happened before without comment, so I didn't think it was terribly noteworthy. The most recent examples were Pyramid #3/71: Spaceships II and Pyramid #3/70: Fourth Edition Festival.

Whoa. I didn't notice that before either. Huh. Okay. Carry on then. :-)

Yeah, me either. Maybe my half-reference in the OP-description drew attention to it this time?

When a columnist has a "full" article in a given issue, we usually don't also run the column. But then again, sometimes we do -- David's done an EM and a (small) column in the same issue before. The only firm rule is that (unless he needs a month off for whatever reason) David has at least one reserved spot in each issue.

So, uh, now that this odd tangent has been thoroughly beaten to death, anyone want to talk about any of the articles? :)
