Hmm... I seem to be being accused of trolling again. Yet I didn't mention any other site other than the site I am going to use to publish TVG. And, with so many people mentioning other sites looks like you may be trolling yourself :)
OK, seriously, all I'm interested in anyone who wants to write something about Dip - whether online or not, play or not - as I said in my post. If you're interested. then the way to contact me for that is mentioned there.
abgemacht, I'm not suggesting The Diplomatic Pouch or Diplomacy World 'fail' the online hobby; I'm actually the new Online Resources editor for the Pouch. What I can say is that the two flagship zines don't really mention online play very much ... and when they do it's usually about how hard it is to get a good online game with NMRs, surrenders and players/site members more interested in insulting people than playing 'properly'.
What I wanted, though, was to give online players - especially those who wouldn't normally think about zines - a zine which is aimed mainly at them. It won't be completely about online play and I have enough contacts in the wider hobby to ensure that.
As for how far ftf and online are separated, I'm not sure they're very far apart as far as strategy & tactics go. Styles of play, ways to play, etc are different, though. And if I can get input from the wider hobby on things like conventions, ftf tournaments, etc it may get some people interested in that.
Still, we'll see how it goes.
