Not lately, owing to absence.

Alas. Without Hong, we can't bring threads like this to a climax,

AMBER, interesting system. Do they still publish it?

As far as I know. I haven't heard of it going out of print. It's not
tremendously widely distributed but I've never had trouble finding copies.

It was recently acquired by GoO. Last I heard, they were planning to
re-release Wujcik's diceless design and also release a Tri-Stat
version. I don't know how GoO's recent restructuring may have altered
these plans.

I can't seem to locate any post by Nicoll discussing GoO recently. Is
it anything different than the fact they've hit financial difficulty
and laid off their entire staff?

Frankly, I think they were asking for it when they arranged to publish
not only AMBER but TEKUMEL. Maybe they were hoping the mutual curses
would cancel each other out?

Well, that's possibly not-good, given what James Nicoll posted
recently RE Guardians.

Well, that would EXPLAIN what James posted, which was on his LJ, that
he would strongly NOT recommend freelancing for them, as they haven't
paid him for a lot of work he's done.
