Hey Alex, It's okay, it's gonna be a nice day...  Hey, I think you have
touched on this before, that CQ is not a wargame, nor really an RPG.  But I
think the question needs asking:  What would you call it?

What I mean is, if you would prefer not to call it this or that, then
perhaps you should suggest to people what indeed they should refer to it as
when describing it briefly (one sentence) to outsiders or newbies.

I know, that was a major cross grain in what my complaint. ( i try not to make
a problem about what i dont have the solution for.)

However, i will stick by the fact it is not a wargame.

What would you guys call the IOM, for what it was? whatever that is, it would
fit with CQ...

Although I was never really apart of IOM (one of the johnny-come-late peeps), I
would call it a "RPG-Exploration Game."  People 'role-played' (created their
characters and the characters interacted with eachother). 'Exploration' because
it was primarily about exploring the Isle of Mist, trying to find whatever it
was that pulled people there (as opposed to combat like Bricks War, or whatever
LEGO Wars, short version is now).  And 'game' because it was all in fun.

Now, about CQ, you've said it is not a wargame, nor a RPG, nor a 'game'.  I'm
sorry, but I'm not really sure what CQ is, and to be honest, I'm really curious
about it.
