After my last rant, I need to give props to the "good" EL players. While I will not mention many names, there have been a few outstanding citizens...especially the early testers like Atlantis and gizz. Recently I had a pleasant conversation online with a (new to me) Mac user, who pointed out that there are bugs when playing under OS 10.5. Another user requested some non-standard features (e.g. NOTEBOOK). Feedback is good. Positive feedback is better, since it influences my decision to continue working on the game.
There will be a game update sometime soon which will include preliminary special effects. Woohoo! See you soon.
