Heres a very broad and open questionnaire to the community here. I'd
appreciate anyone filling this in and posting replies here, or to the email
address pbmmag@mindshiftdesign.com.

IF there was to be another turn-based (read PBM/PBeM/Web etc) publication
available worldwide (print and online) to complement Flagship:

1) What would you like to see in it - articles, game reviews, gamer diaries,
news etc ?
2) What format would you like to see it take - size, color, publishing
period (week/fortnight/month/quarter) ?
3) Should it cover only PBM, or only PBeM, or web games, or computer games
or the whole gamut, but limited to only turn-based games ?
4) What price would you pay for a single issue ?
5) What price would you pay for an annual subscription for the publishing
period you listed in question 2.
6) What kind of advertising would you find acceptable ?
7) Should it cover free games as well as commercial ? What should have
precedence, if any.
8) Should it be available internationally, even if it's initially made only
in the English language ?
9) Would the option for a GM/Moderator company to resell the magazine
subscriptions to their players, generating revenue allowing them to continue
to run the games they're really good at runnning, be a good idea in your
opinion ?
10) For those previously subscribed to the PBM Report and Paper Mayhem
(ignore if not), would you be interested in seeing a mag pick up where they
left off ?
11) How many people do you think will get *issed off with me posting this
questionnaire ? <g with tongue firmly in cheek>
12) Would having a "soapbox" article where anyone could rant on anything
topic turn-based and have someone respond to it each issue be a good idea ?

I appreciate all replies to this. Thanks in advance.
