- Last week I got a weird message from someone who accused me of making
- money out of the Top 100. He wrote that I only pretend to do this work
- for pleasure and that I shouldn't fool my voters. He claimed that it
- is only money that I'm after and that I am probably trying to sell
- this chart to all European magazines.
-
- As you hopefully understand, this is not true. I don't get any money
- from whoever for compiling this chart. In fact, in only costs me a lot,
- since I buy a lot of magazines to keep me informed about all the new
- games and their publishers. And it costs me quite a lot of time too.
- I do not complain, for every hobby is supposed to cost time and money.
- That's what hobby's are for. All the people who have asked me if they
- can publish this chart in their magazine or on their BBS don't have to
- pay anything for it. I don't even want to get money for it, since this
- could create a situation in which people could demand a new list every
- week (and on time), since they are paying for it. I don't want that.
-
- I hope to have cleared this up, in case there were more people who
- thought they were being fooled by a money-making organisation.
-
- Jurgen.
