It's nice that everyone gets to have pets, even if it seems like a somewhat uneven matchup powerwise. Let's hope there are some more PC's to help him out, otherwise one save or suck is going to send them to an unpleasant end. I guess it's up to your group. Let's see how much in here is still useful to groups today, and how much is merely of historical curiosity. From the Editor: Mary gives her perspective on the Gen Con experience. Like many attendees, it was all a bit of a blur, as there was so much to do and see, especially when you also have your newszine deadlines nagging at the back of your mind. Despite the usual hassle by a few twats who believe girls can't be gamers, she still managed to have a fair bit of fun, and get a fair bit of useful feedback on how they're running Polyhedron and TSR in general. It's good to connect with the fans personally. At least, until twitter makes sending low content vitriol to writers every time they do something slightly not to your liking a little too easy. If only there was a way to reach a happy medium between the past and the present in that respect. 1983 Scholarship Winner: Looks like the scholarships are going to be a regular thing each year. This year's 1st place is David Lee Griffith, who's going to the university of Chicago to study Physics. I wonder if he's still around and in the hobby. Well done to you if you are. That's some serious beating of the odds. Letters: Our first letter sees someone confused about the changing membership options. Sorry, you snooze, you lose, miss out on the special offer goodies and now have to resub at the new higher rate. Inflation's a bitch. We are reminded that TSR recently swallowed SPI, and our next letter wonders what they'll be doing with it. You'll see a fair few DragonQuest articles in Dragon before it dies altogether. Our next letter concerns the average age of roleplayers again. Just convert other generations of your family. Most people will try a game at least once because it's fun to do things together as a family unless it's an exceedingly dysfunctional one. Then we have someone wondering why they don't list a precise date for each newszine. They were late for long enough that they got out of the habit. It's just embarrassing to give a precise month under those circumstances. And we finish with yet another person asking about group memberships. As long as it's a group of 7 or over, you can. Technically it's called a club membership, but semantics schemantics. Just get on with it and pay the fee.</blockquote>
