The Tweak, Summer Issue

[RavennaAl]

Man, if you guys had any idea of how hard it is to get articles from people. Biglock, I'm sorry if you don't like the magazine. We try to cover all the tourneys to keep everyone updated as much as possible. We try to cover as many how-to's as we can. It may seem like we're only catering to a certain few, but to be honest, the certain few are the only ones who are contributing, and the only guys we can count on to deliver. We ask for articles from anyone and everyone, but of the few that promise, Matt and I usually have to beg and plead to get them to come up with the articles in time so that we can get things to the printer in a timely manner.

Lock, if you want to help, we can use all we can get. If you haven't already noticed, I write a good portion of the magazine myself, and Matt a good portion as well. It isn't because we're part of some 'clique' or buddy circle. It's because we're the only 2 dedicated enough that we can count on each other. There have been a few other guys that we can depend on to deliver a high quality article before the printers deadline. Chris Fields and Brian Wittkopp are a couple of names that come to mind, as they will have an article within a week or two after asking for it. As for league info, I can't believe these guys haven't been clammering to get articles in. Instead, I think Matt has given up on all of them because the response has been almost non-existant.

This is the last time I'm going to say this, so everyone listen up!!! The Tweak is your magazine. If you want to see your league featured in it, then write something, and I don't mean one or two paragraphs. If you're not a very good writer, then find someone in your league who is. If no one can write, then contact Matt or myself. Give us all the information you can about your league and we'll write it. The more you can give, the better. And the same goes for pictures. Guys like pretty pics, but you should see some of the stuff we get. If you download it from your camera into your computer, and the picture is blurry and out of focus, we can't make it look any better. We will not use crappy pictures. If there is something else you want to see in the magazine, then contact us. We'll try and use every suggestion if we can.

We want the Tweak to be the best magazine possible, but we can't do it alone. It takes alot of time and effort to put this thing together. We want everyone to contribute as much as possible. We don't want to be thought of as a "special" little club. There's an old saying that goes "As you sow, so shall you reap" Think about it!
