Review of mail
surveyed Denis Tokarchuk
Since our last meeting was a fairly decent amount of time
(About a month), which negatively affected the reputation of
the newspaper, which was one of the periodical, and has become
"a all ". We will try to correct this situation slightly
increased during the withdrawal.
It's quite a lot of letters that do not
can not but rejoice. General trend,
Again, I can not select - all messages
practically "polar" - expressed different opinions. Pleases and
that, thanks ZXTime we have gained new pen pals and new
"employees" who feasibly help us with both the draft
"ZXTime", and with the project "Guess the melody" ... Oh,
something I have suffered somewhere Wrong :)... Begin a review
...
We were very interested to hear opinions
well-known personalities on the Spectrum. One
of them is definitely one of the most
the best artists of the Spectrum - GAS13. He
and the word:
Gas13: "... The views of your newspaper has not happened
much. The newspapers all have created from templates and
ZX-Time does not become exception. In this regard, I liked the
newspaper under the editorship. Kvazar'a, where the text
scrolled horizontally (then the idea intercepted Scream Crew).
All too Standard + lacks amenities. Well times
promise - we will wait. Wow, what do you
you with a border, but the newspaper is less
important;) So much for the design ... "
DWT: I agree that the design - no small part of the success
of the newspaper, but in my view, yet the content must
stand on the "first place", and it (the content) we have in
something like "mix" oldstyle and new trends ... Or am I
mistaken?
Gas13: "In terms of content, I
I like to read mostly news. And they
are far from the main part of the newspaper ... However, you
certainly justifies what news there is simply no ... :)
I also liked the article about emulators. Although the idea
soon. In my opinion Unreal is not currently exceeded, and
its rate of development and openness of the author's possible
to compare this project with BGE. In my opinion the choice of
emulator will soon be lifted. At
As for Russian users, as
west side scene will never accept
predominance trd and scl.
Well, my last collection of jokes
also very pleased because does not become another set of
anecdotes from newspapers and magazines. We have, incidentally,
a piece of newspaper advertising and come there quite often
Jokes are ... So there is one we are just waiting for the whole
family! Simply the authors to question the readers
entertainment was really serious and a selection of jokes they
just do not leave the slightest chance to miss!
Going back to your newspaper, say that
as a whole lacks a certain zest -
something out of the ordinary ... Outstanding;)
All of the above is purely subjective in nature, so
convincingly Please do not take close to angry. I think that
you have everything ahead. At As you've already boasted about
it ... ;)
DWT: Many say that the newspaper does not
lacks some "highlights" and what is
"Pearl" - did not specify. Unfortunately.
The following letter came from Sinus'a of
Savers Alliance:
S: "Haya from Sinus / Savers Alliance.
Read here the other day Zx Time 4. In principle quite well,
only little Articles of iron. I also read
flattering opinion of TargeT # 9) But
spoken against the truth does not trample, but
want a bit to clarify the situation. Why am I writing to you,
and not in TargeT # 10? Yes all because the issue TargeT # 10
under the big question. So, more to the point.
Few good articles - is absolutely true. In
principle of good stories do not,
simply no one writing them. Podzagruzki articles about: the
total size of articles (PACKING) - about 580 sectors. This is
not intermeddle in memory. A necessary memory on the shell,
schedule. By the way, if you look TargeT on a real Spectrum, we
will clearly seen that the shell is Framing. The cursor does
not go down the screen? imho absolutely not necessary. With the
rest I seem to agree. By the way, TargeT # 9
does so in order to light the
fullskrinovuyu frame-colored shell, and not to bring valuable
information ... "
DWT: Do not shell framing valuable paper, and useful
information that it can bring! In general, I am pleased that
you looking at me not to be offended. I acknowledge that
occasionally still fills me, and sometimes
so rezhu "truth-womb (in my subjective view) that as I read the
second once - horrified and ashamed - because even at the very
garden "nekopany" but nothing of the strange judge. In general,
I'm sorry if I'm somewhere blurted out too much.
S: "And finally, throw a few stones
in your garden:
1. Read only on Turbo (aka
tormooozziiiitttttt);
2. After some time the paper is hung (both at the Pentagon,
and on emulator (CBSpeccy));
3. (Voice little moody child) want 32 characters per line! "
DWT: I catch rocks and not deny.
Only here the reason of "hang" is unknown to me: (.
The following letter came from WarLord'a
of W.A.R. Group.
WL: "I read the new issue of your newspaper and
decided to dash off a letter with the good
comments and suggestions. In the preview,
I beg you to alter slightly

Bumpy and R-Type. Bumpy, I have long

here is the last yet to scratch. "
DWT: As soon as the write igruhi - eksklyuzivchik send us
:))). Ok?
WL: "I wonder if you saw
Last narobotku my editor to

spitting and screaming windows MUST DIE! I
so for example I think that the interface at
vinda still quite good, although I
here Makintoshevskuyu Oska saw and fuse
8 (But I repeat this until ...
sorry ... "
DWT: You can call this interface vindovza, but we can say
that windsurfing - it cheap plagiarism of the very
makintoshevskoy Oska ... A user interface (itself an ideology)
unquestionably - one of the best.
The following letter came from SirX'a ...
SirX: "Download All issues of the newspaper - Well done,
guys! Nice was that there More in Russia (and not just good
;-))) edition. For the last year of good
news is not spoiled - some newspapers / magazines as
pozagibalos - Black Crow and the pilot (before the new year
talking to Vel'om, he confirmed that the newspaper will no
longer be) the real worth. Smaller requests are:
1. Myshu prisandalit would not hurt ... "
DWT: Will the mouse as soon as her father persuaded her to
podsandalit (is brand new EasyMouse - left
kempston-mouseinterfeys assemble and mount).
SirX: "2. Curb the effects of a good thing, but one Pentagon
alive spetrumist ;-) hope to understand where I'm going with
this, The reason is simple - in our city (Severodvinsk,
Arkhangelsk Region.) entirely scorpions, and they all go into
effect Well ... "
DWT: Well said:). However, we
no machines that could be tested intruhi. So for now will
tolerate Pentagon effects :(((. True, it all depends on VNN and
all the stones - in He ... More precisely, in his garden ...
Damn, in his code!
SirX: "And the rest of me was very interesting to read all
(or almost all ;-))) Already talked about our newspaper will
soon halt rewriting. Well, what about us particularly telling I
do not know why, in our area only magazine MSF leaves and
specifically in our town, a man probably 10 still engaged in
cakes, there's an artist, musician and coder, and no use.
However it is another story and not so important now. With the
past (and upcoming holidays ;-))) your entire team! "
DWT: you too. All the best in the new year!
And the following letter came in the usual
mail from our fellow countryman Alexander Kovalenko aka Borman
(from the city of Mariupol, that in his native Donetsk region):
B :"... I downloaded the 4 th and 5 th ZXTime. Progress has
been! Read the newspaper has become much easier, Thanks, that
published My tekstik, although it is not the cool one of those
that I have.
On the pages of your newspaper touched upon the topic of the
division on spektrumistov realschikov and emulyatorschikov.
Personally, I believe that this division is rather arbitrary,
the main thing to Speccy for something done, but on a real
machine or on mule, it's not important. I also do not agree
so that if a person just screaming
"Speccy - rulezzz!", He supported
platform, because in so many Speccy
themes and directions in which we can apply their knowledge and
implement creative ideas. Even writing software for that the
same PC, but for the Speccy - is to support platform. I also
believe that we should not pay attention to those who are
foaming at the mouth says Speccy died. It is their
Typically, each, in principle, can claim whatever he wants, but
many say so without knowing the real situation
Affairs. For example, in Fido quite frequent
cases where people, after reading spekovskie
Ehi, please send them to the multi, and then
ordered another whole pile of toys. And all
because people fed up with these three-dimensional arcade,
riveted on one engine. Yes, these people do not become
spektrumistami, but they show respect to our platform, and
certainly will not be shouting that Speccy died. And the moral
of all this is: letters, with all arrivals fully in many
newspapers, and this they resemble the so-called "Yellow
press", and I would very reluctant to say so, and about your
newspaper ... "
DWT: Yes, definitely, we have created a precedent, because of
which could be call us "a mangy yellow rag." But this is due to
our principle - express any opinion on any topic. We
would ignore any opinion, but it would be this is true in
regard to the reader, express your look? ..
- - -
Well, it seemed - a lot of letters, and
found it not so much. But I do not
take into account that some of the letters went to the "Forum",
and some or reincarnated in article
or intended as art ... Blin,
something for me today offers kakieto disconnected obtained
