Hi!

What happened to the Gamingforce forum website ? I have been trying to access it for several weeks, without any success. Does anyone have any information about this ? Is the forum closed ? Is this definitive ?

Thanks in advance.

No loss to speak of if indeed it's gone...

It would be a shame if they have gone. Got most of my Sorabji scores from there.

That's just one reason to wish it good riddance; they used to do more than anyone's fair share of non-public domain scores, so maybe that's why it's gone belly-up.

That said, they had very few Sorabji scores in any event and most of what they did have were copy mss. or copy O/P publications; they had hardly any of the typeset editions.

Anyone wanting to acquire any of these legitimately knows how to get them, as either paper copies or as .pdf files.

As paper copies inclusive of shipping or as .pdf files?

You presumably have no takers; perhaps your marketing strategy is wanting. Perhaps you're not advertising them well enough or in the right places...

Ahem...(!)...

Is tghat all? Mon Dieu, you're doing very badly!

Can't wait to see your advertising! - as maybe others here would do too. Could I have some copies at ten time the offered price, please?
