Hi bay12, long time no talk!

The Bay12 Community has always been very generous. I've won several games from big-hearted fellows who've asked for nothing in return. I've really appreciated it because the last few months I've been waaaaay too broke to buy games. I'm still too broke to buy games, but I did manage to grab a free copy of the original 'Sword of the Stars' (sadly lacking the expansions, :( ) But I want to share it with you guys!

Bay12 discussion thread here for those who don't know about it (Here).

I got the free copy from signing up for Paradox's monthlyish Forum newsletter. If you haven't signed up I highly recommend that you do. In the past they've given out free copies of Crusader Kings and some AEGOD titles to everyone signed up so it doesn't hurt to have an e-mail.

Anyways! If you haven't played the game and are interested, please post below! If there are numerous people who are interested I'll hold a random draw in a few days time. Sound good?

Also: If anyone else has spare copies from the newsletter feel free to post as well so those who haven't got the chance to try it can give it a whirl!

I've been thinking about buying it since I've read a LP on the Something Awful Forums, because I'm a fan of Sci-fi strategy games, but never did it.
Do you need the Name I use to log in or the Name other people see? It's either Eler0 or Elero.

Just wanted to let everyone know that the game is a key that registers on Gamers Gate. The winner will be given the key and I'll post instructions on how to redeem!

EDIT: I think to sign up for the newsletter you have to sign up for the Paradox forums here.
And make sure you tick receive e-mail from the admin.

Not entering as I won a game somewhat recently, but thanks for your generosity.
You might want to put "NO ESCAPED LUNATICS" or something in the OP though.
