I'm sad to see it go. Any word as to why it's the last? :|

it looks good. sorry to hear thats it's going(I know how it is with me working on the final Jagfest issue, doing newsletters takes time and most people don't have enough time to do them)

(a couple mistakes in the issue though:
wrong urls for the midwest gaming classic and Video game summit )

I am sorry that it has come to an end. It made for very enjoyable reading and was very well done. I think it would be cool to have the entire 80 magazines on a CD so that people can read it and see it as it evolved.

Thanks for putting out such a great magazine all these years. Best of luck with your future endeavors :)

Fear not though... I believe Alan Hewston and some others may well continue it along in a similar vein... it just won't be Tom's show as he is stepping down from putting it together.

That's good news. I just hope Tom doesn't leave our hobby completely. He would be missed for sure.
