If you do not have e-mail, send text submissions on a 3.5” IBMcompatible floppy disk (disks will be returned at our expense). If you do not have a computer, send typed or legible handwritten manuscripts, preferably doublespaced.  \nArtwork: Please send a quality scan at a minimum of 300 dpi in GIF, JPEG, PNG, or MS-Windows bitmap format (please send bitmaps as a zip file!) to the Editor via email or disk. We also accept good quality photocopies (please don’t send us originals!) . Black and white inked works please – no pencils. A4 size is preferred.  \nThe last five issues of the Queensland Wargamer are currently available on the QUGS website ([http://www.qugs.org.au](http://www.qugs.org.au)), and so is the index of every article ever published. Individual articles from earlier issues are also available on request if the original author can be contacted to give their consent. Log on and take a look!  \nContent  \nWhat we want: The Queensland Wargamer is a forum for people to express their views and ideas about gaming. Any contributions that are in some way related to any form of gaming will be considered: reviews, rules clarifications or changes, fiction, discussions about games or gaming, articles on history, mythology and the like, artwork, etc. Standards: Your submission will be reviewed before publication by the Editor, who may request changes to its content or style. All contributions must meet the standards set by the University of Queensland Union and enforced by Clubs and Societies: sexist, racist or homophobic material is unacceptable, and will not pass the mandatory inspection. Non-inclusive language (i.e. the generic “he”) comes under this prohibition. We recommend that you either avoid sentence structures that require the generic first person (for example, recasting your sentence in the plural, using proper nouns), consistently alternate between “she” and “he”, or consistently use“they” in your submission.  \nCopyright: The creator of the work retains copyright on any material published in the Queensland Wargamer. We cannot reimburse you for your contribution, but non-members are entitled to a printed copy of the issue that includes your submission. Please note that each issue of the Queensland Wargamer is published both in print and on-line.  \nDiplomacy is just a game – or is it?  \nBoardgaming  \nBrett Chatterton ([BWChatt@caltex.com.au](BWChatt@caltex.com.au))  \nHow many times have you been playing a boardgame and heard someone say,“Relax, it’sjust a  \ngame”?  \nDiplomacy is more than a game, particularly when played in a DAANZ (Diplomacy Association of Australia and New Zealand) tournament environment. It should, in fact, be considered a sport.  \nThe Concise Oxford Dictionary defines sport as:  \n“amusement, diversion, fun; pastime or game”. By this definition Diplomacy certainly qualifies. In Australia and New Zealand we tend to think of only outdoor activities being classified as sports, but would anyone deny that snooker, darts or ten pin bowling are sp","cbCaidf7lFuAIgw0","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaidf7lFuAIgw0","pdf",281501,16,"English","# In this issue\n## Boardgaming\n### Diplomacy is just a game – or is it?\n## d20 House Rules\n## The Interplanar Trading Consortium\n## 2004 QUGS Chess Grand Prix","[{\"question\":\"What is Queensland Wargamer in this issue?\",\"answer\":\"It is a journal of the Queensland University Games Society focused on gaming-related views, ideas, and contributions.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the issue handle submissions and editorial review?\",\"answer\":\"Submissions are reviewed before publication by the Editor, who may request changes in content or style, and contributions must meet standards enforced by university clubs and societies.\"},{\"question\":\"Why does the boardgaming article claim Diplomacy is more than a game?\",\"answer\":\"It argues that Diplomacy qualifies as a sport in tournament settings, using a dictionary definition of sport and pointing to the intensity of competition, emotions, and social conventions such as post-event handshakes.\"}]","Queensland Wargamer - Issue 56 - September 2004 | PDF",1791304200]
