PBM Magazines From: Mark@mmj-ent.com Date: Wed, 09 May 2007 04:24:37 +0000 I'm looking for a little information about what PBM magazines are still in publication, and is there an interest in such a thing these days. Back when I started playing PBM games we had Paper Mayhem, where I learned a lot about just how many PBM games and game companies there where at that time. But Paper Mayhem passed away with its editor in spite of someone acquiring it from his estate. We also had the PBM Report, which came out in newsletter format. But it also seems to have gone the way of all things as well. And of course there are others, Fractal Spectrum covered some PBM stuff, I have no idea what happened to them. And of course Flagship is still there, strong as ever, but not with a purely PBM focus. So did anything ever fill the void left by Paper Mayhem and the PBM Report? Is there a PBM publication still being printed that I don't know of? The reason I ask is two fold. If there is something like Paper Mayhem or the PBM Report out there that I don't know of then I'd like to learn more about it so I can subscribe. But I'm also toying with the idea of starting a new PBM publication myself, and I'm looking to see what, if any, competition there is. Also what, if any, interest there is in such a new as yet to be determined PBM publication. So let me hear it, what's out there? And are you interested in seeing a new, general purpose, PBM publication, like a Paper Mayhem? If so, what would you like to see in it? What would make it an interesting publication for you? ~Mark ~MMJ Enterprises Up
