Starweb -- Printed rules for Rick Loomis' multiplayer play-by-mail game, Flying Buffalo, 4th ed, 1978; cover illustration by "Anthony."
Rick Loomis founded Flying Buffalo in 1970 to run PBM games using a Raytheon computer with 16K of memory. Starweb was introduced in 1975, the same year Flying Buffalo began selling Ken St Andre's Tunnels & Trolls tabletop RPG. The play-by-mail games were still being run as recently as 2021 through a company called RickLoomis PBM, even after Loomis' death in 2019.
"The connective thread is Rhiannon Giddens's commanding and exceptionally versatile and nuanced voice, which has made her one of the most lauded singers of the new millennium," writes Los Angeles Times's Randy Lewis of her new album with Francesco Turrisi, there is no Other, and so much more. You can read the feature here.
