> I think the Imms are doing a kickass job here. Seriously. There is something very unusual and cool about CF. But...("We all have big butts. Tell me about your big butt." trivia question...) > I've once heard it said that quests are meant for heroes. I've been politely turned away from quests because I was 'merely' in my thirties. Well, let me tell YOU something. > In all the great stories, in all the great myths...quests are won by those who AREN'T already big and strong and cynical. Star Wars, Excalibur, Highlander...all take some young punk who knows nearly nothing and gives them a taste of crazy herodom. > I think the imms, if possible, might look into this. I've heard tell that they tried to involve Masters in this latest quest, but were ignored. Well! What masters did they hit? Only Heroes? I guarantee at least one non-hero would wet his pants at the chance to redeem himself, the tower, his woman, his dog, and whatever else he could if given the chance. > All I'm saying is let's give peace a, no..no, that's not it. All I'm saying is let's give everyone a chance to be a hero...THAT'S what makes great stories. Not some ultra-decked Master who nobody likes wandering into a solution that he didn't really give a rat's ass about... > Word.
