That historical account of GUTB's demise was both informative and entertaining. Thanks, Loser, for the link. If anyone still cares, I believe the "ubermensch" thing can be attributed to Friedrich Nietsche (whom Hitler adored).
I did find one "uber" strategy in GUTB's approach that I may use if, as a newbie, I become desperate for a game. If I talk like a dweeb, maybe I can goad some of you into letting me join one.
