I get that impression as well, but when you hold a contest for Batari BASIC users (complete with a substancial cash prize) and require them to join the list to participate in the contest, you have to expect the new members of the list to talk about their games. Look, I don't stick around where I'm not wanted, and if this is an ASM-only mailing list, I can respect that. I have a tremendous amount of admiration for anyone willing to develop 2600 games in assembly language... it takes a lot of intelligence, patience, and dedication. The least you deserve for months of effort designing new software for the classic gaming community is your own mailing list. However, I was *asked* to come here, as was everyone else who programs games with Batari BASIC. Arguing that bB users don't belong on Stella List after inviting them here with a contest is akin to leaving an open can of tuna on the front porch, then complaining when the cats arrive.
