    Does anyone know when the next magazine edition is due out?

    We're wrapping it up now and aim to publish in November. Thanks for your support and your patience—our little team has been working on a number of other projects behind the scenes.

    Updates are also posted in the BA mag FAQ (found under Help in the main navigation).

    We're doing our best to get caught up and get the 2018 issues out the door, and we appreciate everyone's patience and support.

    "Where is #133?
    The shipping cycle started on September 7th and was broken into the batches. The final batch is shipping soon."

    So issue #133 is not out yet? Does it really take over a month to ship? I just want to make sure I didn't miss an issue. (I'm trying to be patient. Love the Magazine!)

    Roughly two-thirds of the list have received issue #133. We're working with our printer to send the final batch ASAP. And #134 will be coming out soon after that.

    I still haven't received #133 (or an email stating it has shipped). Reading the FAQ they claim they'll be shipping #134 in late November/early December, then shipping #135 in January. So we're going to get 3 issues of a quarterly magazine in a 3 month span. Seems unlikely.

    No 133 here either. I am not a fan of paying for something and not receiving it, let alone the switch to a quarterly format.

    And I should be a premium member, I think not

    The above is a quote from the notice on the mag going quarterly

    How does one know if their account is linked ?

    As noted, we're working hard to get the finally batch for #133 in the mail ASAP. Thanks for your patience.

    I'm relieved to report that the final batch of #133 is shipping today. Additionally, the team is currently wrapping up production on #134. Updates to follow.

    In the meantime, thanks again to everyone for your understanding, patience, and support.

    Glad to hear these are finally shipping. I Came here to find out what happened to the Summer and fall issues, since the last one I received was the Spring 2018, issue # 132. Being nearly Thanksgiving, and just a month from Winter, and after there were huge delays for Issue # 132 as well, plus the switch from a monthly to a quarterly, I mean there's patience, and then there's just plain old consumer confusion as to what is happening with the money people are paying for this magazine, as these last few years, quite frankly, do not instill confidence in the future of the magazine as a viable publication, imho.

    Quality is still there in the final magazine, but I'm currently paid through July 2022, and I'm justifiably curious if the mag will still exist even a year from now the way this has been going. Hoping for the best. cheers. (Note: as tired father of a toddler, I'm no longer a regular on the forums these days, so I look forward to the mag)

    I hear and share your frustration and concerns. The last year has been tough for us and print publishing faces some serious challenges, which we plan on addressing in the new year.
