Title: Just got my MD for Dec... STEVE that is way to late, I demand and answer NOW!!!
Post by: Stark on December 28, 2006, 03:07:53 PM
Ok! Here we go.

Got my MD for this month, it's the December issue. ::) well I have talked to Cara from MD and (even if she is super nice and helpfull) I still have a feeling something is super wrong.
I mean it's the 28 of December and I get my Dec issue now? It's like going back in time. :(

Anyways, what really made me wonder was, I was in the biggest Bookstore in Dublin (Easons) 1-2 weeks ago and was amazed that they had 1 lousy MD for sale, it was the in red with (As far as I can remember) Jay Cutler on the front (posing triceps) I did not buy it since I don't see the sense in paying for something I have already paid for ::)

Anyways today I open the envelope and I see that my December issue has Branch on the Front cover...

So my Questions are:

1) What issue was the one with Jay Cutler on the Fronpage the one in red I talked about and will I still get it, and if not why?
2) For what month is the one Steve said recently here is the biggest issue yet (have a look at the screenshot below)
3) Will I still get my November Issue?
4) Steve have you looked into your race pigeons and especilally into the one you use to send my MD over to Ireland, is it still AWOL or has it returned yet from his long flight?

I've said this time and time again -- subscriptions suck!

Your local 7-11 will have the newest issue way before you.

last time I did this I got no reply, than I post here and at least Cara helped me out.
I'm more interested what the Issue with Cutler on the front was... was that the Nov issue?
And What Montly Issue is the one Steve said is the biggest yet? (See attached picture)

  I guess MD is slow to get to northern Ontario.
MD doesn't even make it to Australia, I think the success of MD is greatly exaggerated... we get all other muscle mags over here except MD. Must be all those fkn ads keeping MD alive

I like MD don't get me wrong, I wish sometimes it would look a little more like Flex (the black background and text white is a designer no no...anybody who has done webpages or has any clue about webpages not the half flash half HTML  "cough"240"cough" style knows not to do that,,,, nevermind, I love the mag, I just wish they would be a little bit more on time.

All my issues so far have been 2-4 weeks delayed... I shit you not.

Cara said last time all my issue will be send from their office now directly, so I hope this solves the problem... a little.

Must be all those fkn ads keeping MD alive 

The gym desk assistant was bored at my gym the other day. Pulls out an Ironman magazine, and starts counting the pages of ads. First 13 pages, were all ads, not even the table of contents was to be seen. He said there was one pictorial that broke the span of ad pages, but out of the first thirty pages, 28 of them were ads!!!!
 By the time he was done, the mag was something like a total of 298pages (not sure of that #), and more than 3/4 of the entire magazine was ads!
If it was an MD, or MMI, it would probably be even worse, and half of the pictorials are actually advertisements in disguise!!!

I checked Chapter's around the 20th and the new issue wasn't there yet.  Almost a month late.  ???  I guess MD is slow to get to northern Ontario.
Well, that's because the roads haven't frozen yet.   ;)
