      I never received a copy of the magazine. Was offered(rather late) a link to digital copy. Was given no updates.

      Hi Colm Wilde, if you can email your mailing address to stephen.dierks@gmail.com, I'll mail you your copy. I apologize for the delay. I didn't have mailing money for a while, and then I think my call for mailing addresses got lost in the shuffle. Some people haven't responded to that request yet. Please email any other concerns or anything else.

      Sorry for not communicating better, and thank you very much for your support. The print version of the magazine was supported by the Kickstarter in advance of the actual printing of the magazine, as a kind of pre-order. I got the magazines the last week of December 2010, as I was starting a new job (literally simultaneously). I had no savings or leftover Kickstarter money for mailing, and so was forced to mail out a few batches of magazines at a time. I plan to get everyone their copy as soon as I can, and I apologize if it feels like I should be doing it faster. As for your email address, I can let you know when an online website version is up, and I can also right now point you to a PDF of the magazine, voila: http://www.mediafire.com/…

      If anyone has not already emailed their mailing address to stephen.dierks@gmail.com, please do so! If you are owed a prize as well as a copy of the magazine, please specify that too, if you would.

      Sorry again, and thank you very much! Let me know if you have any other questions.

      Have a good day,
      Stephen

      I never received any news of this project nor did I get my copy of the magazine. I donated over 10 dollars.
