    Even if MMP doesn't use the sticky errata system anymore, you can still print 'em all on sticky paper yourself. Get all the latest errata from http://texas-asl.com/download.htm (look for "sticky errata" files.)

    I recently bought ASLRB2 and stickied every errata out there. It took me 2 days.

    I like "The Sounds of the Game" part. It is nice to be able to play face to face with people and talk strategy and hear the dice in the dice cups. I mostly play on VASL, with Skype, which is almost the same but not quite.

    I really enjoyed the Sounds of the Game, especially the mini-interviews with players talking about the games they are playing. I'm especially encouraged by all the newbies.

    On the down side, the History Report intro is waaaay too long. And I missed Box Art Review.

    Would be great if you make Sounds of the Game a regular feature.
