w files. They get them from other boards, new programs are uploaded by users, etc. This is good because most authors cannot afford to mail disks or upload files to thousands of BBSs. However, some BBSs prefer to obtain programs directly from the authors. If you would like to obtain programs directly from us, automatically, then please help us to cover the cost. If your BBS would like to receive automatic upgrades to any of our products, directly from us, then please refer to the information below. Due to the time and expense we are generally unable to upload directly to a large number of Bulletin Board Systems. However, we are able to mail updates on disk (in a sealed envelope) to many BBS's. If your BBS would like to receive automatic updates then please take advantage of our BBS Update Program. Under this program you can receive updates for an entire year for only $5 per program (this helps to offset our costs). To receive updates, simply send us a letter with the name and address of your BBS, your mailing address, the name of the person we may contact (preferably the SYSOP or CO-SYSOP), the program (or programs) for which you would like to receive updates, and a check or money order for $5 for each program (for countries outside of North America please add an additional $5 per program). Payment in U.S. funds drawn on a U.S. bank only, please. The BBS Update Program is available for the following products (as of November, 1994): Bars BrainStorm Dschump! FinTris Flying Tigers GateWorld: The Seed Ship Puzzle Shards Star Hammer SuperHer for Windows World Quest NOTE: All BBS's participating in our BBS Update Program will automatically receive any NEW programs which we may release while their BBS Update Program is in effect. The BBS Update Program is only intended to help us cover our expenses in those cases where a BBS desires to obtain the program directly from us. If you have other standard ways to obtain programs, then you may prefer not to use our BBS Update Program. Please refer to DESCRIBE.DOC for our mailing address and phone number.
