[dragon] The "challenge"

[Rob Bowman]

Greetings,

Yeah that is pretty close.  From my perspective, I saw someones vainity a=
nd=20
need to correct a historical oversight becoming more important than the=20
needs of our Clan.  You may not feel the need to dissuade people who choo=
se=20
to weaken their chances of winning, to show friendship and storyline flai=
r. =20
But I just found it INEXCUSABLE to *reward* them.  Thanks for clarifing a=
nd=20
for what it is worth, I think this is a step in the right direction :).

Take care,
Rob- Mirumoto Shokan
