To get your copy of THE WORD from issue 12 onwards follow the following
steps...
$ffa|1-What do I do then?
$aff
1. Format 2 disks, make sure there are no errors on them...
2. Select a jiffy of sufficient volume to hold 2 disks and
perhaps a piece of paper.
3. Write the following on said jiffy: The Word - DiskBack
41 Lambourne Drive
Marton-In-Cleveland
Middlesbrough
TS7 8QF
$d74|1-WARNING!!!
$d73
** This address is only valid untill July 1997 **
** Update address will be in next issue! **
$aff
4. Stick a 1st class stamp on it.
5. Drop two 1st class stamps into it, along with your disks.
6. Write your name and address on either a piece of paper or a
sticky label that's big enough to cover the address on the
front of the jiffy.
7. Seal it, and if you feel like it, write your address on the
back as well, just in case like...
$ffa|1-When should I post it?
$affIf you're sending articles on your disks (write: arts included on
disk label) then obviously it's better if you post them as soon as
possible, if not (and WHY not?) then wait about six weeks from the
release date of the LAST issue (which would be this one, presumably)
before posting.
$ffa|1-What do we do?
$affFirst I check your disks for articles or letters (you can send a
covering letter on the disk if you prefer not to annoy your neighbours/
parents with your rattly old 9-pin), and if I find any then they are
copied to a drawer on my harddrive, but left on the disks JUST IN
CASE...
Then I prepare your jiffy for posting, by removing the stamp and
putting one of the loose ones on, removing/covering my address with your
address and then putting your disks back in. The ready jiffy is then
dumped unceremoniously into a drawer marked "Word - Diskback", ready for
the next release.
Oh alright, the drawer isn't actually marked, but that's what it's for.
$affThen when the mag is finished and DMS'd onto my harddrive, I spend a
few minutes/hours making copies on all the disks in that drawer and drop
'em in the post to you, generally on a Friday morning. The Word is
released at 8pm on a Friday night (this is for the modem people) and you
get it Saturday AM, not bad eh?
The Word can be downloaded from Remote Kontrol BBS (01642 650120) 24hrs
7 days at 28.8 or The Oracle BBS (01494 452026) 10pm - 7.30am 7 days at
28.8. (And soon the finished Carnage Web Site).
