Gamer's Almanac. Issue No. 4.
Hello, dear readers of our almanac!
Finally, the fourth (!) issue of the Almanac has been released, about which I hope you haven't forgotten. A lot of time has passed since the last release of the Almanac. This issue was planned to come out a month and a half ago, but real-life events disrupted our work at Gamer.ru. For example, Teodor\_85's daughter was born on May 11, and the whole clan drank congratulated him. It could have continued like this, but one fine day, today specifically, we gathered the courage and decided to create this issue. We were greatly motivated by the nudges from the well-known Pegazs.
In this Almanac, we tried to increase the number of underrated works, but it turned out to be a tough task, as the number of good author articles and posts has sharply decreased recently. In this issue, as always, you will see the now permanent sections: Game History and Unknown Author. But let's forget about all the problems, as the fourth issue exists, and we present to your attention works that, in our opinion, deserve more attention from users!
On the people:
Our clan has only gained one new member, and as surprising as it might be - it's me!
Calldun - Blog Team Fortress 2.
Actually, the only problem with joining our clan is that the Sergeant has gone missing in unknown circumstances and has disabled the function for officers to accept participants into the clan. We are trying to solve this problem by sending pleading letters to the Administration, but so far without a response. Therefore: Sasha, Lesha, if you are reading this, we ask you to temporarily replace our leader - Serjant with Teodor\_85. We hope our requests reach you this time.
We express our immense gratitude to those who helped authors with underrated works to receive their rewards in the form of experience, and I think the authors themselves are grateful to these people. In fact, ALL (!) posts from the last issue received an award in the form of a silver or golden frame. We all thank you very much for helping those who strive for you.
THANK YOU ! ! !
Now, here is what the Almanac was actually created for:

We really want this situation to be corrected!

Post: The sun was setting.
Brief description: Another work of Maktub. This time, it was not extracted from the drawer, but written specifically for GRU. It turned out no less interesting and captivating than the previous work, so I believe you'll read it with pleasure. And give him due credit.
