Ten stories. One email. Friday, 8pm.

What's actually in it

Each issue is the same shape, so you can skim it in ninety seconds and read the two things you care about:

• The week in six lines. Patches, prices, servers and shutdowns — what changed and whether it affects you.
• One review. The score, the hours, the hardware, and the two sentences that decide it.
• One guide. Something you can actually do this weekend.
• The calendar. Local tournaments and qualifiers, with entry deadlines that haven't passed.
• One thing we got wrong. If we did. It goes in the email, not just on the site.

What isn't in it

No drip sequence. No "just checking in". No re-engagement campaign designed by someone who read a blog post about re-engagement campaigns. If it's a quiet week, you get a short email — we'd rather send you four lines than pad it to ten.

We don't sell your address, and we don't hand it to sponsors. A sponsor buys a slot inside the email, clearly labelled as a sponsor slot; they never see the list. That's in the privacy policy in plain language, and we mean it as a commitment rather than a disclosure.

Unsubscribing

One tap, at the bottom of every issue. It works immediately, it doesn't ask you why, and it doesn't make you log into anything. If it ever fails, email [email protected] and a person will remove you by hand.
