 other than that the MRB is fine as far as i can tell, as is
 Terror/Counterterror and the GMs handbook.  these are all damn good
 books, and should be up there. >>

    Well, I'm glad to hear that your copies (as with most) are relatively OK. 
When I feel assured that all copies sold will be of acceptable quality, we'll 
put 'em back up.

<< sooo, who is DOJ when they're at home ? >>

    There are several investors who own the company. The two "public faces," 
the only two involved in the day-to-day running of the company, are myself 
(the creative director, so to speak) and Darren Watts (who handles the 
business, admin, and financial side of things). The others prefer to maintain 
their secret identities. :)
 
<< soprry about the Rant, but it's a shame when we get the game back in

 most active group of ME fans on the net, any chance you could share the

    I can understand that you'd be upset, but please remember -- the people 
who did most of  the stuff that upset you are *not* DOJ. We're just getting 
started, and it's going to take us a little while to get Hero Games back on 
track. If we do something rant-worthy, by all means, rant away, but please 
don't blame us for the sins of past owners.
    If I feel I have information that's of interest to you guys, I'll 
certainly share it. However, please understand that, as much as I enjoy ME, 
it makes little (if any) money. It's very much on the back burner compared to 
the HERO System, which has far greater potential. I don't anticipate the 
situation changing anytime soon.

<< AJ - puzzled as the rest of the Cybergames.com online store seems to be
 just as dead.... >>

    That I can't speak to. The only thing I have any control over is the Hero 
store, which is working just fine AFAIK.
