Is this (Lamergy) a series?

I saw last two Wos-updates include something called Lamergy (ok, so one is called KACuk Show, and the other one isn't).

Should this be a series?

I wonder, why russian e-paper Lamergy is there, but completely no really famous russian ZX diskzines, like Spectrofon, ZX Format, etc? They are all russian language and TR-DOS, what's the difference?

Lamergy is rather special case of e-papers. It published by anonymous authors, who aren't the same people all the time. It is the series by content and the title, there are the same characters in all the issues.

More than 50 issues.
Content is satire and mockery on the topic of ZX Spectrum.

I'm afraid I rely on people uploading them, and can only accept .trd files (hence why only those two are currently available).
The complete set should ultimately be available on WoS.

ZnorXman: those are electronic magazines ('zines'), as displayed, so they are a series per definition. :-)

This is how I see it:

As far as I know, WOS collects electronic magazines for its database. It only doesn't take demos at the moment.

This Lamergy was uploaded by someone and it is a new soft so it appered at
daily update. Older software appears in big updates a few times per year.

If something isn't here = it wasn't uploaded yet.

There is really a lot (1000,2000,3000 ???) of Russian electronic magazines missing here but available on other sites. I may start uploading them at some moment if anybody other won't.

And if somebody would like to upload them, he should deal with "attachments" which are usually pirated games. I guess, they should be erased, so the magazine could appear on WOS.
