Re: Secret Project Alpha
So if the newsletter is so secret, why is it available to anyone who happens by Shranel's homepage and has an email address?

*shrugs* There are some things that are exclusive to the newletter. It happens to be free of cost, but in return for your subscription, Shrapnel Games knows your email address, and can get some idea of how many of its customers are interested in receiving news about Shrapnel's various projects.
Suffice to say, it is worthwhile to both parties if you sign up for the FRAG! newsletter. I am not certain, however, if it would be as beneficial if everything in the newsletter were posted on the website. Articles would seem harmless enough, though, after time. Again, why we are asking for clarification from Richard on the matter.

Agreed.
But, something to keep in mind:
SFC3:The next gouging, has just been released by Taldren. Most fans of SFC who were originally drawn in by the connection to SFB are seriously less than pleased that the marketing geniuses at Taldren have decided to bleed yet more money from an only slightly different game, with even fewer options than the previous game had.
This represents a serious opportunity to show off a game that those players (like me) would be seriously interested in hearing about, even if it is just shy of 6 months from being available.
But all that logic aside... I'd love to hear more about this game! (Even having been one of the fortunate few who chose to sign up for the valuable and informative (does sucking up get me any bonus points?) FRAG newsletter.)

Re: Secret Project Alpha
So why penalize me because I happened to Subscribe after the article was published? Why not allow all Subscribers but no one else access to the archives? That way you'd get our email addresses and we could get the old news?

That's part of the problem. I don't think there are archives. Well, except for people who don't ever delete their inboxes.
