About the EU campaign for maid outfit and fat chocobo

Yesterday, I spent from 9am until after 4pm in the city (York) where I live, trying to find places that stocked GamesMaster magazine. I went to the following retailers, TESCO, ASDA, Morrison’s, Sainsburry’s across the city, both the big major supermarkets and the smaller direct stores and not one of them had stocked GamesMaster magazine for a while. I double checked with as many staff as I could to see if it was just a one-time thing or otherwise and they all said similar things; it just doesn’t get that much interest.

Having done that, I then went to smaller retailers – places like W. H. Smiths, Game, HMV (the last two were a long shot, I admit) – the result was the same, bar one. W. H. Smith’s had sold out of GamesMaster within two days of it being stocked! The sales assistant that I spoke to told me that people had bought multiple issues, going as far as to offer to buy in bulk direct from the store. The same sales assistant also had no idea if/when they would be getting any more in stock and frankly, didn’t seem hopeful at all.

After that, I decided to check out newsagents across the city – some had heard of the magazine but hadn’t stocked it due to lack of interest, but most had not and even had to look it up online to see what I was talking about.

TLDR: SE really has messed up and GamesMaster has played us all for fools.
