(...) <soapbox> Mike, shame on you... First of all, Thad only wrote that the new sets looked "very skimpy" compared to the Ninja sets...that just means smaller or less substantive, it doesn't necessarily mean that Thad likes Ninja sets better than (...)

OK, he also wrote that he was hoping for another year of Ninja, but maybe that was because he either liked Ninja (which I would argue is "OK" :-) or because he felt that recent themes like Fright Knights, Dark Forest, and Royal Knights had (...)

(...) This is what I responded to. It appears that this person refers Ninja to more traditional Castle subthemes. I still maintain the Ninja subtheme sucks. I don't see how anyone could prefer it to real Castle stuff. (...) Maybe. (...) I didn't (...) (25 years ago, 8-Nov-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.castle)

(...) Ok, so you see I wasn't necessarily (or at all, in fact) responding to the alleged "skimpiness" of the new sets. Cool. Give me basic gray bricks, castle walls, and pitchforks and I'll be happy. I'd agree with anyone who felt that FK, DF, and (...) (25 years ago, 8-Nov-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.castle)

(...) Not alot, really. It was the current theme when I came out of my Dark Ages, and I think it's the best of the last 4 subthemes. That doesn't mean it was as good as some of the earlier subthemes, but it was good. (25 years ago, 8-Nov-99, to lugnet.general, lugnet.castle)
