Post #16,969 by admin 11/6/01 4:43:58 PM Reply	Well, yeah, but... 1) I'm at work, and don't have time to look up games. 2) I wanted Peter to explain; anyone can Google for it. 3) That doesn't tell me if Peter is playing Yorkish or Delphic. 4) If I don't have time to learn chess, I sure as hell don't have time to learn a game that has a 125-page rules manual and competing standards bodies. :-) Looks cool, though.

Of course, it's a long way from basic rules to official rules to mastering (or proficiencing) the game.
