Ahoy mates! I need some British help

Onkel Neal · 02-06-07, 01:48 PM

Hey guys, I just heard the there will be some British magazines running Silent Hunter 4 ads, with some bit from a Subsim article and our logo. Naturally I would love to snag a couple copies to impress my girlfriend (ever since she discovered I'm not a reserve astronaut, things have been tense). If you read or can get a couple copies of the following magazines, please let me know. I will send a Subsim Almanac or a Subsim coffee mug to you if you can send me a copy of one of the mags below with the Subsim/SH4 advert:

PCZine, Issue 27-Feb

PC Zone, issue 179 on 1-Mar

PC Format, issue 199 on 15-Mar

PC Gamer, issue 173 on 15-Mar

I believe the issue # and dates are accurate. Of course, the issue should have the SH4 ad in it with Subsim, that's how you know for sure it's the proper issue.

thanks!
Neal

I'll see what I can do about the PCGamer one Neal, I know the local supermarket usually stocks it

Onkel Neal · 02-06-07, 02:37 PM

Ok,.. hmm… :hmm: maybe I should revise my offer, it makes it sound like a free-for-all and since you guys will need to BUY the mags and SHIP them, it'll cost you $$. And I really don't need 20 people all sending me 4 magazines. So, instead of first person to send all 4, maybe we should set up who will send what. I will send your choice, mug or book, thanks Oberon.

Anyone else have a line on the other 3 mags?

thanks
Neal

There not cheap Neal any where in the £2.50 up wards for magazines I will see if those titles are in near me tomorrow and check the exact price of them.

Onkel Neal · 02-06-07, 03:12 PM

Ok, understood. I you prefer I can repay you for the cost of the mag and shipping, and a book for your time. Just let me know.

cheerio
Neal

Oberon · 02-06-07, 03:55 PM

PCGamer is usually £5.99 I think coz of the DVD of demos that come with it. That much I do know....the others, I guess it depends what comes with them. No discs will probably make them cheaper.

mr chris · 02-06-07, 04:02 PM

Hi Neal i will see what i can pick up in the NAFFI

Edit: Could one not just order them through the intrenet and get them sent on to SS HQ.
I will see if this is possible.
Edit : Well i have sent a messeage to my parents back in the uk reserve a copy of each at my old local newsagents in the uk and my they will mail them all to you if they can get hold of them all.

DanCanovas · 02-06-07, 04:40 PM

i can do it, just give me a shout if you need me to send anything. don't want to send anything if others are. just to know im available if you want me to send them.

mr chris · 02-07-07, 01:18 PM

lol -- I almost sprayed a mouthful of coffee all over my monitor when I read that bit. Priceless.

Been incommunicado in darkest Scotland for the last couple of days so I'm chipping in late - just shout if you need a hand sorting anything out Dan.

DanCanovas · 02-07-07, 02:25 PM

DanCanovas · 02-08-07, 04:08 PM
