Yes, that was a tough moment for me. It was not obvious that you have to press 'P'. Actually I watched all the scroller and then nothing happened so I started banging on some random keys until by chance I pressed 'P'I've got a horrible feeling that a lot of people have not actually seen the magazine, and thought the 'Stonehenge scroller' was the end (when it's just the intro). I failed to mention on the tape that you need to press O+P to scroll through the magazine. Could people spread the word that you should press "P" during the Stonehenge scroller to page forward.

Re: Woot 2019 Tape Magazine
Same method worked for me too Ralf! I tried S and Q for start and quit, then space bar and Enter. I eventually went for the old QA first and then tried OP
Re: Woot 2019 Tape Magazine
An updated version of Woot! has been installed. In this one there is a "use OP" message, "t" is changed to "T", and the 'stonehenge' scroller automatically moves on so you can't miss the magazine. Same download links as the first post.
Can people pass the message on please. Sorry for the oversight.

In case nobody has spotted yet, Desert Island SCREEN$ has two possible endings depending on your black mirror choice of cereal.

This is great. And I completely *didn't* spot that thing that you've spoilered. That's great.R-Tape wrote: ↑Sat Dec 28, 2019 8:32 pm An updated version of Woot! has been installed.

Re: Woot 2019 Tape Magazine
Finally managed to go through the whole magazine. Again, great job and congratulations to everyone involved, what a great way to end the year
At the end of the quiz I scored 63% with several "close enough" answers, at least now I know that I am a buffoon
The desert island section in particular was hilarious, and even enhanced my knowledge - before reading it, I believed that the Engadine was a region in the Swiss Alps. Now I know that it is also a cake. Well, you learn something every day

Re: Woot 2019 Tape Magazine
Hells bells. That's a great score. I doubt there are many, if any, that got more than that.
Re: Woot 2019 Tape Magazine
I did very badly on the quiz 005% . But I did get Street Hassle right! Because the cover art is by Jamie Hewlett.
Re: Woot 2019 Tape Magazine
Thanks for mentioning O/P keys I've watched the intro, watched the islands - this was hilarious - but couldn't find how to start the magazine. Will try again.
Re: Woot 2019 Tape Magazine
Cheers!
I really messed up when this was first released. The magazine had a huge amount of work that wasn't seen because I didn't make the keys clear. When you load the magazine, after the intro and during the Stonehenge scroller, using keys O & P you can page left and right though loads of content. Some of it is interactive. Here is a taste of what you can see:but couldn't find how to start the magazine. Will try again.
Is that what you mean?
Re: Woot 2019 Tape Magazine
It would be great to put all these screenshots to Magazine's page here:

This would instantly show that there is something beyond Stonehenge
Really great job with magazine. Illustrations, proportional font - that's a lot of efforts. I'm surprised that there are 4 issues and almost nobody knows about it on Russian scene. I will try to mention it in a pair of places, the language barrier should not be a big problem for at least demoscene.
