Sixth months for the last issue. Four months for this issue. An improvement, but not good enough yet. With this issue the goal of being bi-monthly has been thrown out the window for now, and The Shadowrun Supplemental officially moves to being a quarterly magazine. This gives me a bit more time to breathe and allows me some extra time to edit and compile the contents of the magazine.

The other main news is that we’ve moved web addresses again - yes, again - this time to http://tss.dumpshock.com , which will be the last time we ever move. I swear. My email address has also changed to adamj@dumpshock.com . Please update any links, bookmarks, or address books that you may have. Please put TSS in any emails you send to me regarding The Shadowrun Supplemental, so I can keep organized.

So, with little major news to talk about, I’m going to spend some time talking about submissions. For once I’m not going to say "We need more submissions", because we’re actually doing pretty well in that regards. We’re still in need of submissions, but we’re not in desperate straits. The stuff that I would really like to see more of is source material - Locations, runner groups, gangs, initiate groups, smugglers, plot ideas, and that sort of stuff. There’s a lot of rules material already available in previous issues and coming out from FASA right now, people are wanting new source material, so let’s give it to them!

Slushpile Submissions have become The Cluttered Datastore (For gear and magic stuff, mostly), and Places to Go, People to See (Locations and NPCs). You can submit these via the web at http://tss.dumpshock.com/tss-cd.html or by emailing them to adamj@dumpshock.com .

As you can see, we’ve added more short sections to the magazine - Bulls Damage Control column, along with the return of A Little Learning... ...is a Dangerous Thing!, and Fun on the Run, the new humour column. If you have ideas or suggestions for future editions of these columns, please send them to me and I’ll pass them along to the appropriate author. Also, please note that just because we have a column dedicated to certain topics doesn’t mean we don’t take reader submitted articles on the same subject!

The other main issue is mixing Shadowrun and Real World in articles. Rules material and "Developers Say" material does not belong in the "Shadowland" style. For an example of an article that is written entirely in character, please look at The Corporate Review in this issue. It’s treated like a file uploaded to Shadowland, with shadowcomments inside the main text. Then look at Anything to Declare? which is entirely out of character, and as such doesn’t - and can’t - have shadowcomments inside the article itself. If you want to mix In and Out of character material (As is done in The Cluttered Datastore), please try and keep the material seperate from one another, as was done in The NARCAR Phenomenon in issue #11. When submitting articles that have shadowcomments in them, please just use plain greater than signs (>), instead of the old format that used lots of greater than and less than signs.

Submissions

If you have further questions about submission for The Shadowrun Supplemental, you can read them in their entirety at http://shadowrun.html.com/tss-sub.html , or you can email me at adamj@dumpshock.com, or send me an ICQ message, my UIN is 2350330.
