The North Carolina site (http://www.nccheckers.org/) has it in it's news pages for Jan. 2008 (with no specific date) in Albermarle NC, but does not have it in its calendar pages yet. That is the only info I have seen.

Hello, everyone !

Bonus edition of Sixth, 40 copies, has been sold out ! Last copy went this week to ICHF. I would like to ask ACF Store, ACFB and MCA Newsletter, to remove this item from announcements. Most, perhaps more than 30 bonus copies were really sold, and few were donated or giving for free.

Sale of regular Sixth copy continues and many buyers are still coming. Past several buyers were young players from Kurnik. Reducing price by $10 also little bit increased sales activity.

Thanks everyone who bought this book. I hope it helped people who study it seriously, to improve.

Sincerely yours,

Alex Moiseyev

What's the difference between the bonus edition and the regular edition?
It has come to my attention that my username has been used by others; they have abused it and besmirched my name. I apologize to all of those who view me in a negative light because of posts that may have been offensive or vacuous.

No difference in contest. Bonus edition has handwritten number, my autograph and personal message. Mostly it has only collector and historic value. You also may consider this as sort of financial support :lol: because the price of Sixth bonus edition copy was higher then regular copy.

Regards,

Alex

After long delay I just returned back to my work. All comments and corrections to Sixth< which were published here, mostly by Jolt, were copied and processed. I still have to review several emails with corrections / additions to Sixth from Richard Fortman, Jim Loy and Al Lyman. Hopefully new PDF version of Sixth (renew edition) will be ready soon. This time sale method will be changed and book for small reasonable price will be available on Amazon.com, more likely cheap deal with paper cover.

Alex, if you need a co-writer or another editor for your next book, you can count on me!
