It has become more and more apparent over the last month that something really, really bad happened to the February mailings of GameRoom headed for Canada.
Were they apprehended by an arcade-loving Mountie? I don't know, but what I do know is that I'm rapidly approaching a "missing issue" rate of 100% for Canadian subscribers, at least for the February issue (and quite possibly for the March issue, but it could just be late...)
Anyway, there are two bits of good news here: first, starting with the April issue the magazine was shipped in "polybags", which means that it's a lot easier for machines to sort (and harder for mail carriers to read
)
Second, I've made arrangements with my printer to have the Canadian subs mailed directly from Toronto, where the magazine is printed. This means that Canadian subscribers should actually see their monthly issue before I even do!
We're still working out the Canadian postage issues, but I hope to keep the rates unchanged or at worst a few dollars more a year. This will mean that the "Canadian Air Mail" rate will go away, as most likely all Canadian subs will be treated the same.
I do want to apologize for all the BYOAC subscribers who have yet to even get their first issue. Trust me, this wasn't the plan, but I hope that I've finally managed to iron out all the production kinks (which were probably inevitable, considering the magazine has a new owner, new printer, and new mailing center!)
