Other files have been taken from the public domain, either via
the Internet or from CDs. The original authors of these are
given credit if known.

To recap the points system for the award for any new readers,
points are awarded at the rate of 1 point per published K of
information in the form of reviews, solutions, hints, maps,
letters and articles.  Points are NOT awarded for graphic files
such as screendumps and photos which are used in the PC 3.5" HD
version. The points are added when the data is published, not when
it is sent in. Files are published as soon as possible but
maintaining the balance of the magazine is also a high priority.
The next award will be made in May 1998 - Issue 54.

Contributions are always welcome for old or new games, hints,
solutions, reviews, maps, articles - anything! Ideally they should
arrive before the 15th of the month before the disk is produced to
have a chance of being included in the next issue.  Second (or
third) opinions of adventures are always welcome.  Ideally I'd
like ST and PC contributions in ASCII form on disk and, if you
send on disk, I'll replace it with the PD disk of your choice.
Amiga text files can also be sent on PC disk using Cross-Dos,
Or you can send printouts, typed or hand-written contributions.
