QB Express #11 Now Available
Posted by Pete on Wednesday June 22nd, 2005 @ 05:11:10
      The June Issue of QB Express is now available!

This month we have a particularly excellent issue. For the first time in a while, I think that the Articles and Editorials are just as strong as the Tutorials in this issue. Matthew R. Knight brings us a funny and interesting personal narrative about "How [he] got started with QB", we have reviews of ASCII Scrolling Map Maker 1.0 and FB Sokoban, as well as a review of Astral Worlds in Lachie Dazdarian's new series "Searching For The Unknown". We've also got Project Updates on Qbinux, RapidQ & Legend of Aquarius, and an extensive preview of Syn9's The Griffon Legend in the gallery. Finally, there's an editorial by mennonite on flaming, a Where Are They Now? article about GBGames webmaster Gianfranco Berardi, and an interview with Sumo Jo by yours truly.

As for tutorials, Deleter has brought us an extensive theory article entitled "Ecosystem Simulation Through the Use of AI", Moneo has created a spin-off of MystikShadows data validation tutorial entitled "Data Validation Implementation", dumbledore dishes the dirt on "Using WX-C In FreeBasic", and Pyrodap informs us on how he makes random Roguelike dungeons in his RMG Roguelikes tutorial. Also, MystikShadows has returned with the final two installments of his Professional and Commercial Application Development Series, Testing and Debugging and Installation and Integration.

Plus all of the regular columns you're used to seeing every month -- News, Awards, Rattrapmax6's Comic, and more!

A great collection of great articles -- that's what QB Express #11 is!

Editor's Note: It appears that former castaway Pete has named QB45 site of the month. For all those living in 8th St. Apartment 308b, Eighth St., Atlanta, Georgia, the drinks are on me tonight (and tonight only, mooch)! Also, in somewhat dubious honors, we're naming Pete's magazine the first Centennial Site of the Century 1900-2000. Assuming no violence in the Middle East today, we'll be shipping $750,000 in large sacks endowed with bold money signs to Pete's door.

Hahaha, congrats eh.

I won't be able to make the drinks tonight, so ship mine over; Generic, Liverpool, UK. Ta.

Awesome Firefox bug: if you have a scrollwheel, press it 'in' (to auto-scroll) in the middle of this article on the front page and witness the magic.

I guess that means no $750,000 for me. :( Maybe next month.
