Nah. Still 286 transmissions to go...

I can't decide if I will be inspired or tantalized beyond reason when you get to the unavailable transmissions.

Why decide? You could easily be both! :p

Oh, and I would particularly recommend reading this post in the series, which might help putting some internal events at Steve Jackson Games into perspective...

Well, you've set the stage, though... You should always leave 'em wanting more ;)

I can only really start doing that once I hit the majority of the now unavailable transmissions, though - so far, most of the transmissions I've reviewed are still available in the collections.

Really, I need to hear some more screams of anguish and jealous rage before I'm done there.

Well, as I said on that thread, I'd really like that "Alternate Falkensteins" Article in some form. I don't suppose anyone at SJGames would like to PM-send me a copy of it? *Begs pitifully*

Note: You should probably mention that you did have a Pyramid subscription and downloaded the archives in zip format - it's just that the archives themselves seem to be incomplete.


Also, it's nice to see my name mentioned on the Daily Illuminator again. :D


And I had another thought: Maybe Steve Jackson Games should consider using something like Fundable to get the necessary funds for a new collection of the Suppressed Transmissions? This apparently works quite well for Greg Stolze and a few other famous game designers - and this way, Steve Jackson Games could make sure that they won't be making losses on this project before committing to anything...

Oh, right! I forgot to mention that. I was a long-time Pyramid subscriber, and got the zip format archives as soon as they were available. I also have the print versions of both Suppressed Transmissions collections.

On a related matter, this post may be of concern to Steve Jackson Games:

They've done the same recently for OGRE:Battlegrounds.

Despite all three being listed as still available from W23.
