    Count me in, too, Joe. I'd like to contribute. I was just telling Scott S. "stonic" that I often miss the good ol' days of publishing the 2600 Connection newslettter.

    You know what would be great? A glossy, color magazine format for this special issue.
    Is this something you are considering?

    I think it would be great too, if funds allow! Ultimately I always fall upon our humble roots, for richer or poorer

    SO excited to see some of you interested in this. Certainly helps make it as EPIC as I promised!

    Yes, I agree... it would be costly. Another option would be to take the comb binding format that you did with the first few DP Price guides. I think the comb bindings would allow you to keep costs down and gives you a professional looking product. I like the 8.5 x 11 design with a transparent sheet with a color copy / laser printer copy for a cover page that you did with DP guide #3.

    How many pages do you think this EPIC issue will be?

    I would like to help in some way. Leonard Herman got me in touch with DP and the 2600 Connection when I ordered the 1st edition of Phoenix (he also took me to my first NAVA at Mike Etler's store). This was in the old days when you had to send letters and there weren't any websites yet. Cool to see Tim here!

    It sounds interesting and is certainly an awesome accomplishment. I am not sure what article topics you are looking to publish in this printing, maybe a fan or followers section of personal stories? How Digital Press has influenced people's love for video games and collecting?

    I wish I had some ideas about what to write... I'd offer a cover (an homage for an ancient project never completed), only I can't find the image... But at least I can offer my congratulations, and I certainly look forward to seeing the issue.

    I'll try to write something that's less "novella-length" this time around!

    Would love to but the last two items I submitted never went anywhere. Neither one of them were bad either.

    I haven't been the editor-in-chief since 2002, so if you submitted anything since then, I can't really speak for your past submissions.

    I'll get back to everyone who PM'ed within the next couple of days, thanks all.

    EPIC!

    I think they ended up in Lore. Something about being for the next guide.

    Default 20 Years!

    Congratulations on 20 years, Joe!

    I remember discovering Digital Press during the 1990s and being excited that there were others who still played their old systems.

    Wow that long? Man, what were retro games like in 1991? Haha.

    Oh, hey, yeah. Of course! First time reading this thread; sorry for the tardiness.

    Just subscribed with anticipation of the new issue, just wondering if I will be getting an issue before then?

    That's kinda up to Editor-in-Chief "Kid Ice" but he hinted at a May issue!
