Introducing the MVP Distribution Network
Have you heard about the MVP Distribution Network? MVP Software is
joining forces with BBS sysops in a joint effort that will help both
of us. I'd like to invite you to become a member of the MVPDN.
Here's how it can benefit you.
Near and dear to all sysops' hearts are callers. If you run a
subscription BBS, then more callers means more money. If you run a
free BBS, then more callers means that more people are finding what
they want on your system. Participating in the MVPDN will increase
the traffic on your board.
Participating sysops in the MVPDN receive all of our popular games
and entertainment-related shareware directly from MVP Software,
before it is available on other boards or from shareware disk
vendors.
What about the quality of our games? Good question. AOL chose Sand
Storm as a Top Pick for September 1992. PsL News chose both
Robomaze II and Robomaze III as the top new arcade games of 1991,
tied with several Apogee games. Corncob 3D, our award-winning
flight sim, was nominated in two categories by the Shareware
Industry Awards, received an Editor's Choice in Shareware Magazine,
and has been favorably reviewed in PC/Games, Nuts and Volts, In
Flight, Computer Gaming World, and several other publications. In
1994 MVP Bridge (DOS) was chosen by Computer Gaming World as best
shareware card game of the year and was nominated by PC Magazine as
one of the five best shareware games of the year, all categories.
And the best is yet to come. We now have 20 talented development
teams. In 1994 we have releaseed our first shareware educational
game, the Sea School Series. Designed by a teacher, it combines
education, outstanding graphics, and fun for early learners like
never before in shareware. Bloody April, our next-generation
256-color air combat game has features not found in most commercial
flight sims. And in 1994 MVP has released the first four of our
Windows games.
Don't miss out! Be the first BBS in your area to carry these hot
new shareware products! These are just some of the reasons to join
the MVPDN now and grow with us. It's easy to join the MVP
Distribution Network. Here's what you do.
1. Not all boards qualify to be a distribution site for MVP
Software. We would love to have them all, but since we mail all
new releases and updates directly to each sysop, the cost is
prohibitive. So to qualify, your board MUST be online 24 hours a
day. I'm sorry, but we can't support part-time boards.
2. Call MVP's home BBS, Ryan's Bar, at 616-456-1845 or
616-456-5342. Download all the files in the MVP file section.
These are the files you should post on your board in the MVP
section. Call Dave Snyder at (616) 245-8376 (voice) so we can
add your name and address to our database. If you have
difficulty getting through to Ryan's Bar, download the MVP files
from Exec-PC, the world's largest BBS, by calling (414) 789-4360.
Look for the free MVP file section.
3. It is best if you use a high-speed modem to download the files.
It will take you a long time at 2400 baud. <g>
4. Create a file section on your system called MVP SOFTWARE. This
file section will contain all MVP shareware products.
5. Post the MVP bulletin and the MVP log-on message on your board
to let your users know you are a distribution site. These are
found in the SYSOPMVP.ZIP file.
6. We will notify yo of new releases and updates. You will also
receive our periodic sysop newsleter, MVPDN News.
And that's all there is to it! I hope you will join us today.
