Let me share a recent event with you all. I opened my mailbox to receive a surprise issue of Maxim, featuring such lovely articles as “Balls of Fury”, which is understandably about tennis, and a whole hell of a lot of scantily clad women. And some women without tops, covering their nipples with their hands or their hair. And let me tell you, that’s exactly what a gamer like me wants to see!

Wait, no. No, it isn’t. If they asked me if I would like to receive Maxim when EGM stopped publication, I really don’t remember saying yes. They could’ve sent me a subscription to a related gaming magazine, or just put it on hold until it reopens in the fall, like they said they were going to do. Hell, they could’ve done a lot of things. Instead, I got a short note saying that the remaining balance of my paid subscription would be fulfilled with Maxim.

Wow. Imagine if I was a straight female. Actually, that’s pretty kinky…ahem! Sorry about that. Got sidetracked. Anyway, it seems that I’ll be getting an issue or three of Maxim. Go me.

So, if you’re a former EGM subscriber and you suddenly start getting copies of a magazine you never subscribed to (or *gasp* want), don’t fret and enjoy the gratuitous half-nudity and lame guy jokes. And look for EGM to hopefully resume in the fall.
