Putting together a good magazine isn't easy and I'm very proud to say that HH was a work of love by several of Trollhalla's most talented members. I will mention just a few who have contributed to make that magazine a delight: Ea, Grumlahk, Mhegrrrim, Ramsen, Hogscape, and Shipy. Many others helped with stories, articles, solos and gm-dungeons. It was great while it lasted.But that chapter in Trollish history has ended, and HoHo, as we affectionately called it, has come to an end. The hobbit publisher got caught with his hands in the cookie jar, and he didn't always treat his talent as well as he should have, and the Outlaw Press publishing empire has fallen.

FormCritic wrote:Just a thought....Are we really sure the Outlaw Press guy is wrong?Ken St. Andre can repudiate his agreement with his former partner at Outlaw Press...but, was there a contract? What did the contract say?

JasonZavoda wrote:The original thread is on the Neromancer Games forums (I believe). It starts out with this one guy from South America who recognizes the work of an artist and is sure it can't be legit. He then gets blasted for a couple of pages before someone else recognizes their artwork being used, then it quickly becomes an avalanche of artists finding their work being used without permission.It is a very interesting read, but I don't have the link.
