About The "GAMER Project"
The "Gamers Anonymous Mac Entertainment Reference" Project, aka
GAMER Project, is a group of Mac enthusiasts from networks
(Fidonet, Usenet), commercial services (America Online,
CompuServe, GEnie), and Macintosh user groups which provide and
distribute a smorgasboard of entertainment & education
publications and software compilations celebrating the "lighter
side of the Mac". Shareware authors wishing to spotlight their
software in a "GAMER Project Collection" (software compilation) or
listed in the "Shareware Game Registry" section of the "EAR
Awards" may send their work(s) to the current Project Leader, Bob
Nordling. Likewise, shareware authors who wish to have their

Address Book" should also contact Bob via mail, e-mail (America
