Im not saying the MM should have further rules. it only has further rules to
people playing CQ. If you dont want to participate in the game, you can just
have fun building the Market Stalls.
No offence, but its because of this that this is getting old and coutner
productive. its because we keep argueing. The boring part, as you call it, its
going to happen between me, Joey, Yaron, and Matt by email. ( yeah, i know, ive
got to send you an email, matt.) we will then present it to .castle as a
finished product.
Since not may people are talking about it anymore, i think that this will
probably stay in castle, hence this might be the last post im making in an
arguement point of view.
This is not a game! UGH!
