Summary:This editorial first touches on the early days of simulation/gaming. It then traces the links between International Simulation and Gaming Association (ISAGA) and Simulation & Gaming (S&G) up until the 2009 ISAGA conference in Singapore. The links are, of course, provided through people, who were active in both the organization and the journal. The joint contributions were of several kinds, including conference organization, conference presentations, journal articles, and journal symposia. A list of previous ISAGA conferences is provided. This article thus contributes some elements toward a more complete portrait of the development of the discipline.
