By the way, thanks for these suggestions. They got a place in that neighborhood, and my niece got a good-paying marketing job. Her boyfriend has met Pierce Brosnan and Mark Wahlberg at the country club and got parts in (non-paying) productions.

Happy beginning. 

Yeah, maybe it's the condensing of intrigue that makes the betrayals seem random. But it was the self-defeating insults that annoyed me most.

Teague's betrayal certainly wasn't random, tho. I SAW THAT COMING A MILE AWAY AND LAID A TRAP, YOU BASTARD DWARF EUNUCH.

Prince Rupert's drops are really cool tho. They might be more suited to traps than weaponry. The drop is robust, so it could hold off a spring mechanism, but touch the trip wire attached to the tail, and the drop vaporizes, allowing the spring to trigger the trap.

I like the idea of it being more transparent, like the movie holograms. Love the projection idea. And that camera angle is fantastic, by the way.

I've long marveled at the panel's dedication to putting out quality content on a regular basis. It's been the source of many, many hour of entertainment to me. And I greatly value the fantastic experiences I've had on this forum.

All things end. Thank you for all you've given us.
