The people who give their name as contact for the BUF address list do
so for the Ultimate playing communities benefit. Concerns were raised
about giving out personal details to anyone who chose to buy Ultimatum
especially since most of the address name and individual and their
contact details including telephone numbers. The editor of Ultimatum
has to consider the wishes of those people who have their addresses
listed and has a legal responsibility to protect them.
Ultimatum gives the BUF official contact address which people may
contact and get the latest info on contacts in their area. I think
Paul had considered putting a map on the back of Ultimatum with the
locations of British Ultimate Teams in order to give potential new
players some idea of the extent to which Ultimate is played. I think
any potential players are as likely to contact the official BUF number
as they would a number in a long contact list (possilbly more likely,
especially if they live in an area where the is clearly no Ultimate!).
