Title: Subscriptions
Post by: Dom on 04 February, 2003, 10:21:32 PM
Some of you (subscribers) may have noticed that your copies are a little on the tardy side.

Due to the weather the Royal Mail did not pick up the copies from the subs house until Monday as opposed to Friday.

They guarantee delivery within 2-3 days, sorry people Wednesday or Thursday.

Title: remember Computer Warrior?
Post by: LARF on 04 February, 2003, 11:57:27 PM
Remember this from the Eagle comic back in the 80's. A young boy gets zapped into his Commodore 64 and has to fight through a series of US Gold games in order to rescue his friend who had lost and been swallowed up by the computer. Blatant product placement a la Havok, Desert Strike etc. but good fun if you were 12.

Any chance of rebellion doing this... chortle.

I'm sorry, but what sort of excuse is that? Postage delay due to weather?

Whatever happened to a good old fashioned 'Earthlets, to save you from an overdose of thrill-power the current ptog had to be delayed shipping from venus'? That sort of thing you could believe.

Got my subs from the time stream this pm never fails...

I'm currently reading prog 3478, Judge Dredddd has just been killed (definitely this time) by the Ionoclast Cult of St Death, his son Judge Wagner a liaison between Dredd and the dead Ghost of all the female Chief Judges, called the Matrichief, has sworn vengenge...

but of course I already know all this, but I'm looking forward to the genesis of Judge Dreddddd and how his father Earth Overseer Judge Dreddd disowned him...

killer stuff really looking forward to prog 3477, but I'm really jealous you're all on Prog 1326...

Still plenty of time...
