When is the next update for the Mailing List Answer's page scheduled? The last
time it has been updated is 9/22/97 or is there a new page to look at?

Actually, I think I've noticed it being updated a couple of times
without the 9/22/97 date stamp being changed.

Andrew (Smiling Bandit) is responsible for maintanence and upkeep on
the Game Q&A, so he'd best be able to fill you in on updates.

I think it was updated since the 9/22/97. The problem I am having
with updating is that job responsibilities are increasing and will
almost choke me after I change positions. Also I used to make the
updates while at work, but they have since cut off telnet access
through the firewall for all but a few people(not me). What does this
mean for the SRTCG list answers? I probably means that without help I
will only be able to make updates to the list maybe twice a month.

How can you help?

It would be nice to have our little answer list become automated.
So anyone with a few KB's to spare on a server that will allow CGI-BIN
access, please give me a ring and we can set things up. I would like
to make it so a few different people could make updates by cutting and
pasting a Q&A into two input boxes on a web page and then hit add and
the whole FAQ be updated.

Well, I didn't want to say anything, but I have been diligently compiling
an FAQ consisting of all the awnsers give on the newsgroups as well as the
offical FAQ. The offical questions have been marked, so that everyone can
easily tell the difference between the offical and semi-offical awnsers. I
have done a little bit to clean up the wording, but most of the awnsers as
straight as given. I have orginized into two sections - general rules and
specific cards for easy of use. With Loki's permission I would like to post
it to the feed as an RTF attachment. I am not quite done compiling it, but
it's something like 30K. If Loki doesn't want me to post it, then I can
have it availible for people who ask. Whatever ya need, chummers, I have.
Just doing my part. Thanks all,

Rob

Hi I would love to see your list and perhaps we could add it to our
List Q&A as well.

Sounds good.

You may not want to post it to the list, as some people can't handle
attachments and other can even get fired if they're pulling their
mailing at work and end up d-loading an attachment.

What would probably be best, is getting with Lady Jestyr and getting
your compiled FAQ posted on the SRCard homepage.

Also, can we expect regular updates as new rulings and FASA answers
get tossed around. :o)

Thanx!
