Default New Subsim Almanac coming? Yes!

Hi there, I was just wondering if there are any plans to bring back the fantastic Subsim Almanac, it was a great read and one that I have enjoyed many times over. I know I for one would certainly purchase a copy again.

The 2008 Almanach is also still available, they even have it ready to ship at German amazon. So mapuc, you might want to check out amazon.de for a quicker delivery.
I think I'll get one for my Christmas holidays book order.

I would also love to see a new edition...

The chances are excellent there will be a third one.

I will probably rebrand the book as Vol. III, since I was unable to put one out each year.

Thanks for the interest, I appreciate it, and I know all the guys who contributed hard work do as well.

You could do the April 1st edition, and just print out the four word story game thread.
