I think the mag's primary purpose was to keep people informed before
the net which iit did.
Now though yeah the old format no longer fits.
It needs to be majorly expanded which means more than blind games,
maybe mainstream and blind and then maybe other things to.
I really liked the game mag but to be honest the only reason I read
it at all was not because someone told me.
back in the day I was moving through a now dead site on my dialup
1.4kbps modem and was really bored.
there were these files called aud 1-25.zip, all saying audyssey.
I downloaded them to see what they were.
Ofcause I opened them and read them but more than not I could have
easily deleted them because I forgot what they were the file names
were not really descriptive even then the description was well not
much to go on.
I opened the file and discovered there were and had been loads of the
blind out there that played games more than me.
Along comes mr broadband and mr internet.
And now, well I don't know.
Saying that I'd like a mag or some bullitin we could call our own on
the entire community.
audiogames.net does a massive effort.

I'm not even sure it's worth having the mag now. I mean, the blind friendly
games only get exposure for example if people find their way to the list or
the site. Considering that a magazeen is meant to increase exposure of a
given topic it fell down there in a massive way because no outlets were ever
used to put the mag out to anybody and everybody regardless of format.
It's all well and good to post the mag to the list and then have it archived
somewhere but apart from that the mag didn't really do that much. Not for
the market anyway for the simple reason that there was no form of exposure.
