So maybe you like what you see, and you wanna tell me, but you're shy and won't comment. I understand. It's cool. Maybe you've got a tip for a hot new game and you want me to take a look. Or maybe - just maybe - you're a big game company and want to advertise on the site, or offer me a six-figure salary. Whatever the occasion, if you wanna drop me a line, send it to my email address and we'll talk. No big whoop.
