Re: Game \\spoilers\
I have a better idea: why don't all those total winners who feel the
compulsion to show off their knowledge just shut up? While I love to
get all those hints, it does take a considerable amount away from the
game, and few of us (certainly not me!) would have the discipline to
say 'n' to the the "spoiler" headers. After all, my fellow competitors
on my home machine are certainly going to read it, or so I think, as do
they.
How would you feel if you were discovering the joys of ZORK or
Adventure and someone plopped a complete map into your lap?? So
discretion, PLEASE! That's what this game is about-- discovering
things on one's own!
