V/+RULESC

This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

                       !THE RULES ARE CHANGING!

AN important announcement regarding the past, present and future of your
favourite 8-bit magazine:
   From this issue, EUG #51, magazine subscriptions are to be raised by
`0.30 per issue. This applies to both UK and European subscriptions
(although NOT those to the rest of the world). The new prices for EUG
magazines (including back issues) are now as follows:

       Members of the U.K. ................. `1.30 per issue/disk
       Members of the European Community ... `1.80 per issue/disk
       Members of other countries .......... `2.00 per issue/disk

Current subscriptions are not affected by the price increase but any
subscriptions or orders received after 1st June 2000 need to reflect 
these higher prices.

Why Are The Prices Higher?
AS noted on EUG's web site, EUG is changing. It has gained many new 
readers and is in a very healthy state. But submissions, be they cheats,
articles, utilities, demos and even letters, are very few. If you've
been with EUG from the start, you will know this is a problem that has
dogged the magazine since the first issue.
   Previous editors have tried to solve this in a number of ways:
      a) by accepting text unrelated to the BBC or Electron computers,
      b) by constantly begging for submissions in each section, and
      c) by delaying publication until submissions arrived.

These methods have proved successful in some respects - EUG is still
thriving almost ten years from its first issue! - but have tended to
make the magazine's distribution irregular. 
   EUG is now marketted as a professional, monthly magazine for 8-bit
computers and collectors. As a result, its readership now stands at over
100 and it has built up a strong reputation on the BBC-based 8-bit web 
sites as THE bona fide BBC disk format magazine, being completely up-to-
date with the latest happenings on the scene whilst incorporating brand
new games and hardware projects.
   But, with this improved readership and circulation, there is an even
greater need for submissions. It is with this need in mind that prices
have been raised and the rules regarding EUG rewritten.
   From this issue onward, any reader contributing toward the new issue
of EUG will receive that issue completely free. Which means taking the
time to devise a short utility or write a short review will be rewarded;
a measure long since overdue. Many members have felt that contributing
to EUG was a thankless task. Not any more. Under this new system, such
readers who DO contribute will reap a small benefit and those that are
happy simply viewing the disk will receive a more varied slice of 
opinions on the 8-bit scene for their money.
   Hopefully this measure will also allow for EUG to continue with a 
regular distribution on the 1st of each month. The price increase means
contributors and readers alike get more from the Electron User Group.

What About Multiple Submissions?
ONE of the immediate questions potential and existing contributors to 
EUG will have regarding this initiative will be, "Suppose I submit two
articles on the same disk. Are these treated as one submission or two?"
They are treated as two. Which means such a contribution would gain TWO
free issues of EUG.
   The same applies to games, utilities, demos and other programs. Note
though that only SUBSTANTIALLY IMPROVED material from magazines or books
will be classified as such a submission. Any straight transfers of 
ELECTRON USER listings will not qualify. Improved versions of any exist-
ing programs will be considered on merit (at the discretion of the 
Editor).

What Happens If My Submission Is Not Used?
EUG is still a magazine to communicate ideas. The Editor will only on 
rare occasions reject a submission outright (although the right is re-
served to make alterations to code IF NECESSARY). If a submission is
received but not included through lack of disk space (or arrival after
the deadline for the upcoming issue) then the contributor will still
receive the next issue free but will need to either submit something 
more or pay to receive the following one.

If I submit, do I receive my original disk back?
YES. You will receive the original disk PLUS a disk with the new EUG
magazine on it.

IN finalising this article, note that CURRENT subscriptions are NOT
affected in any way. So if you have just paid a yearly subscription at
`12.00, you will receive twelve issues. Send in a submission too, of
course, and you will receive an extra issue FREE.
