They still send me their mailouts about twice a year, even though I quit playing all the board games 20 years ago and quit their computer game five or six years ago. The computer game has hideous copy protection, but it isn't a bad game. It's just not as good as several others out there, such as OOTP. I had at one time or another in my boardgame days APBA, Strat, Replay, Pursue the Pennant, and a few that don't deserve to be mentioned. I don't think I can go back to the board games. I bought the newest incarnation of Replay about a year ago. It's a good game, but statkeeping by hand is a joke. I had to give it up after 20 games or so. Even the Excel programs that help you keep the stats require manual entry, and I'd rather spend my gaming time actually playing the game.
