At the risk of repeating myself, all releases currently proposed for validity are not commercial. They were originally posted online on James Wylder's blog for free in html/pdf format. Later this blog was supplied with a legal statement announcing contents of the blog to be publications of Arcbeatle Press. The purpose of the move seemed to have been to retroactively turn the free html/pdf's into publications of Arcbeatle Press (with certain inconsistencies which are irrelevant for the commercial aspect for the moment). However, the html/pdf's continue being available for free to this date. The commercial release of these stories is currently announced for 2020.

It should be noted that Bwburke94 mentioned some other commercial releases but was not able to provide any independent verification for their existence without the deleted thread. Of course, by T:VS, information from this wiki could not have been accepted as a valid source for the purposes of inclusion debates, even if it were available (emphasis mine): "user-editable sources such as Wikipedia, the Internet Movie Database and this very wiki are to be avoided"

- Out-of-universe sources

Thus, there is little point in discussing those at the moment.
