Four. MarkUp, GMTech, GM Magazine, and Russell's Quarterly (but that's not really a GM magazine).
What exactly do I get if I sign up? Money? What kind of software?
No, Russell's Quarterly doesn't really count as a Game Maker magazine, It just doesn't really focus on Game Maker all that much.
@Firebird: No, you will not revice money, even I do not get money from GMM, and I am the owner.Software, I am not all that sure, but, you may receive a legal GM key, I know that, that was on the list, When I find the list of software that you may recive, I will post it here.-MattIf this "legal GM key" turns out to be either widely used one for GM6, or a link to the GM7 crack, I know I'd be pissed. Please clarify, judging from your grammar I'd assume it's correct, but I have seen fake "awards" before of this manner.
OK, this is getting ridiculous. Month after month your treat us as an advertisement site and I have had enough of it! This is a BLOG SITE, not the classified section! If I see any more of these without some actual blog content, I *will* remove your right to blog.
