Re: Dan's involvement with the Fantasy Club

[Preston Wiley <quotha@laf.cioe.com>]

I have a hard time believing that people are actually considering taking
a vote on this. Dan has been part of this organization for 22 years and
he is the reason it is what it is.

Dan is not saying that he will not implement rule changes. He wants a
formal writeup (to avoid arguments) and wants us to test out the rule
changes (to avoid unintended results). Dan has never said, "No rules for
you!" he simply stated that because he is running the campaign that he
wants a say on rule changes and he doesn't want us to come up with new
rules behind his back.

Dan does have the final say and I think that if enough people think a rule
change will add a new and exciting angle to the game that Dan will gladly
agree with it. Dan is not the bad guy, he is just trying to make sure that
he has a say in rule changes.  Don't make him the bad guy.
