I'm a new member to WOS, and already I'm hooked! I took a trip to the Rock n' Roll Years of Your Sinclair and found an article I wrote to the infamous Mike Gerrard all those years ago, Yes, I was Elchraken, of the "Masters Of The Unhuman Eliminators Group" sending in my solution and hints to Vera Cruz affair!
The name Elchraken came from the side of a shaving foam can when I was 15.
In case any of you care, Eurasmik is now manager of Spar in Rochford and has since retired from Eliminating Unhuman kinds!

    My name is in an issue of C&VG (somewhere between 1986-88) when I won a copy of Elite for the BBC Master Compact.

    Although I've never been published, my mate had his own monthly section in YS for a bit called 'Steve's Programming Launderette', and another mate got mentioned in SU tips pages.

    Do I win a prize?



















    Thought not :(

    Steveinuk - any chance you still have your solution? It'd be interesting to see how it compares to the one we already have on Tipshop (from Crash)

    Toodle-pip!

    Hi,

    Talking about solutions, has anyone got a solution to the game Manor of Doom by Rob Stringer???? It is a text adventure from 1984 and is very difficult and I want to complete it as for some stupid reason I have loved this game since 1984.

    Help me please!!!!!

    I was 'The Phantom Raspberry Blower' in the letters page of an early 1990s issue of YS. It was a letter they entitled 'Listen up, Lewis!' in which I moaned about my mate Lewis never keeping the games I leant him in their cases.

    Marvellous.
