I've gotta say you're wrong there.. Jon was nice enough.. but it was like he was maintaining the mags amateur status so they could qualify for the olympics.

Dan has dragged the quality of the magazine kicking and screaming into a more quality product that is actually readable.. The writing is 100% better than it was before mostly due to the fact that it boarded on virtually unreadable before.

They quoted you this month Meex. It was a deadly serious, dull post.
If in doubt, put the kettle on.

Not only was it in context it was also a recent post.

It's still full of typo's though. I mean, I enjoy the mag every month - if I didn't, I wouldn't subscribe - but I keep on finding words that shouldn't be there, or words that aren't there but should be.

Yeah I know what you mean.. but seriously.. I honestly couldn't read the mag before..I'd buy it, read my quotes, look at the pictures and put it to one side... at least now I can read my copy from cover to cover.

Where are all the Dan votes people???

We didn't even have any user spam mods ;)

This may backfire and give Dan the ultimate ego and the mag will just be full of moody photos of himself in black and white playing indie arcade games...

Unless he's confirming what I suggested in my For The Mag: "For the Magazine" post...In which case he loses my vote and my respect... :P

I don't normally put that and i hadn't noticed till you mentioned it.

I've been up for about 24 hours and it's well past my bed time, plus i've just had a couple of guiness.
