26th January 2000 - Elite Club news

More from Andrew Gillett on alt.fan.elite when asked for progress information:

Q When can we expect The Elite Club to come

A Next month is the most likely of these. However, since we are busy with other projects, I can't give any cast-iron guarantees.

Q. How will we go about application..? How much? What the membership will involve?

A. There will be two tiers of membership, which I am thinking of calling the Elite Squadron and Cadets. Squadron members pay a membership fee (probably about £10) and get the source code. Cadets pay nothing - just fill in the signup form online; in return they get access to the download area on the Elite Club site.

Q. Will members get any advantages on the the forth-coming ELITE 4 eg Become Beta testers?

A. Maybe, but I can't guarantee anything. I think it is best that we play down that aspect, as we don't want to be bombarded by thousands of people wanting to be beta testers.

Q. How about regular e-mails from the team detailing how it is going?

A. This will probably happen at some point, although it may be some time before there is any substantial news to report.
