In the last few days our hosting server has experienced some problems which resulted in downtime. We are sorry for this inconvenience.
The problem seems resolved, but if it happens again you can go to our backup web page.
In January, we will be looking for a more reliable server.
Six new back issues of Protoculture Addicts are now available in the eBook format from Drive Thru RPG:
I was recently cleaning my basement and, in some boxes that I brought back when my parents sold their house last year, I found a box full of back issues of the magazine, some of which were considered sold out.
I have updated the catalog with those new-found issues, so if you are a collector now is your chance to complete your collection.
Check the catalog in the Other Products & Rare Issues section.
PA#86 shipped monday. By next week it should be in most stores and Canadian subscribers should have received their copies. US and International subscribers won't probably get their copies for another couple of weeks.
We are all hard at work on PA#87, which should ship around Christmas!
PA#86 will come back from the printer soon and we will start shipping at the end of the week. By early next week it will be on its way to your store or your mail box!
As usual, if you want a copy you can either order it directly from us, get a subscription or check you local store. If they are not carrying the magazine, please encourage them to do so. Retailers can order it directly from us (they can check our terms of business) or they can order it from several distributors (our web page has a list of distributors that carry the magazine).
Remember: the best way to support the magazine is by the word of mouth. Tell your friends about Protoculture Addicts and encourage them to buy it as well.

Please give us some FEEDBACK by either going to the PA's forums or by e-mail! That will help us continue to improve the magazine.
