Voting is not an accurate way of deciding much of anything, especially when
fairness is the goal. Being that we are on Lugnet, a site owned by the
'tyranny' of Todd Lehman and Suzanne Rich, we are subject to their rules.
please see below.

" lugnet.fun.gaming– LEGO-centered gaming: puzzles, building challenges,
role-playing games, strategy games, treasure hunts, etc. "
" lugnet.castle– LEGO SYSTEM Castle™: products (information, opinions, reviews,
etc.); building (settings, contexts, characters, projects, models, layouts,
plans, tools, tips, etc.); inspiration (ideas, movies, books, literature,
magazines, music, historical events, etc., as they relate to Castle); etc. "
in other words .castle = products, buildings, and inspiration.
lugnet.fun.gaming = RPGs.
MM was *developed* in emails between the respective designers. Development of
the game should go somewhere similiar. If it should stay in castle discussion,
I think it should at least be aware of those who'd rather it not be here:

Of course, fairness is in the eye of the beholder, but I think it would be only
fair. Nitpicking about stats and rules, and generally un-defined brainstorming
isn't particularly interesting for whoever isn't directly interested in the
game. Especially when brainstorms devolves into arguments about D&D vs. other
games.
But since I brought it up, I think a strict following of the rules would
dictate the postings be in both .castle and .fun.gaming .
What I would like is that subject line clearly designate what the focus of the
conversation is. Recently in .castle certain discussions have evolved into
sub-discussions that really should start their own chain. the result is the
horribly long and complicated string like this one:

Personally, I VOTE for 2, 4, or 5.
