I have never played this game but one of the GMs is a friend of mine.  His
name is Clint and he is also a GM for Harlequin Games, 41 Treherbert St,
Cathays, Cardiff, 0222 667197.  Harlequin does not run the game but you can
contact him there.

From what I can tell there are a lot of experienced players in all games of
Serim Ral.  The trick is to get diploming with them.  Even experienced players
who do not talk normally founder.
