Probably the most repeated question we are asked in readers' letters is, "Do you know of any games of D&D, Traveller, C&S, etc going on in such-and-such a town?" Our standard reply is to recom-mend a free advertisement in our Help! column requesting fellow players in that reader's town. However, we feel this is not enough, and we would like to offer readers a much improved contact service.
We want to hear from existing SF/F games clubs, individuals willing to form/run clubs, indi-viduals or groups who have regular games at their own homes and are willing to accept new players, and shop owners who are interested in a weekly/monthly games session on their premises. We. will publish all the information we receive under separate headings. Please include all relevant information, e.g. for clubs, information should include full name and address, meeting dates and times, contact name and his address and telephone number.
Gaming as a hobby is still in its infancy and it is essential that gainers are brought together at established venues if the hobby is to grow. Please respond to this project and help us help you by writing to "Contacts" c/o White Dwarf.
