A classic post indeed, but surely a bit presumptuous to post it directly into this thread?

Ha. I know you're not sorting through the feature request looking for things that aren't covered in tickets and making extra work for yourself.
Therefore I can only assume you've searched Google for "charlie off of apterous's willy" because you have some dirty pictures in circulation that you're hoping don't get made public.

I was actually looking for a suggestion similar to the current "Gambledown" ticket that I remember from years ago, but I couldn't find it. Any benefit to my penis picture predicament would be coincidental.

Cheers for the thought, but no, not quite. As I recall it proposed some sort of double-or-nothing option for maxes, but people shot it down because it would just give the top players an even larger advantage.

I've reread this entire thread several times and every single post makes me giggle a lot. And now it's locked, so its perfection can never be diluted.
