    — The Magazine of Fantasy, Swords & Sorcery, and Science Fiction Game Playing— A non-wargaming friend of mine recently asked me why I did this; why did I put all my effort into this line of work? What did I perceive my endeavors to be? Part of this curiosity stems from the fact that this person has no inkling of what games are all about, in our context of gaming. He still clings to the shibboleth that wargamers are classic cases of arrested de- velopment, never having gotten out of the sandbox and toy soldiers syndrome of childhood. He couldn’t perceive the function of a magazine about game-playing. This is what I told him: Magazines exist to disseminate information.

    — The Magazine of Fantasy, Swords & Sorcery, and Science Fiction Game Playing — ORIGINS '78 — Biggest Con To Date Origins '78 is finally history, and those that were there will long re- member it, for many different reasons. I’ve waited a few days to allow the jumble of images, incidents and events to sort themselves out in my mind, as well as to be able to look back with a little more detachment. It’s a flaw in human nature that the things that aggravate us often leave a more intense short-term impression than all the pleasant things connected with an event or a memory. It is one of the human mind’s greatest powers that allow us to forget those same things with the pas- sage of time, leaving only the pleasant associations. Origins '78 had its share of both high and low points. The following is an attempt to recall both. FEATURES Origins '78 was BIG!
