Sporting Triangles STP

Hi
this infoseek entry is confusing:
http://www.worldofspectrum.org/infoseekid.cgi?id=0010663

It says it was released on disk only, yet there's a cassette inlay :-?

Anyway I am in the process of buying the cassette version :) so when I get it I'll do a TZX.
thanks, from Guy

    The 'Availability' field is a generated one, by looking at what we have available, not necessarily what was published ('Distribution denied' or 'Missing in Action' weren't publication methods either, hopefully!)
    So you should read this as: we only have a disk image.

    okay..how about WoS has added to it the means of ebay buyers being able to mark something as 'pending' or something.

    I suppose this is my fault for not checking ..? :roll:

    I've checked the WIP list (thanks Andrew, and slap my wrist for not doing so!) and apparently there's a known duplication fault problem. So it would be interesting to see if the tapes I'm buying have the same issue or not. Will keep in touch.

    Hi Guy,

    Phew, I can hardly keep up with you mate !. Yer it will certainly be interesting to see a copy that does have a duplication fault. Hmm wonder if Nuno can work some magic on it ? Last Ninja 2 Remix also had a duplication fault (drop out noise) but I was able to fix it using the hacked TAP on WoS strangley. However the TAP is also knackered but at least we have a working TZX now, or will once we release it ;-).

    Yep, keep you eyes on the WIP list but don't worry about contacting me if you have anything to clarify on there.:

    Cheers

    p.s. It would be great to be able to assign status pending etc to WoS, but that's up to Martijn who already has a busy schedule until 2025 ;-). Maybe one day.

    Hmmmm... technology can only support a process, not a mindset.
    It's already possible to maintain a list of pending titles with more traditional means (HTML page, Excel sheet, ASCII file, etc) and that's not being done apart from Andy's WIP list.
    The reason for that, as I understand it, is to have updates come as a surprise, which is fair enough. I cannot change that.
