Kind of explains why there never where a no2. MA was never involved, it was a company that made it for them and there where probably to less sold IRL.

Quote from the site:


Looks like no one did pay for the yearly subscription...

=/
i would but i wasnt in the game at that time

i dont think everything should be free but i do think magazines, newspaper and things like that should since its content will most likely only be usefull at the time they are published

Read the full thread and u find there still is some.

OK a few things.

First:

There are SEVERAL PE/eu related mags/newspapers that have been made over the years


Off the top of my head theres:

The Gate
The Entropian (actually published in hard copy)
Entropia Insider
The Calypso Independed (officially disbanded and authors write for EI now)
UberMag
The Calypso Post <--- shameless plug

There are at least 2 more as well but I've temporarily misplaced that part of my memory.

Second:

I'll be poking a couple of people from this thread who I think may want to write for TCP

Third:

The Entropian is pretty Good and if your a fan of the game worth buying anyhow if you can find a copy (ebay maybe?) Afraid scans are a big no no.

If I were you, I'd actually try writing to MA support asking if you can buy a copy through them. Rumour has it that MA bought the unsold copies to give away for promotional purposes... don't quote me on that though. But I think its worth a try.

Funnilly the mag is still fairly current as theres plenty that MA talk about in the interviews that STILL isn't in game There is some great fiction in it too by Frank (from MA) and Az (of Sterling and Moss).

Forth:

There may possibly be an article on the Entropian Story and why there wasn't a second issue in a future issue of The Calypso Post Highly dependant though on how many noses I want to put out of joint... (if any )

Hope thats useful
