Nearly everything on there is debatable Tesco. Except things like 110 maintenance reduction is a must have minimum... playing with anything lower is just silly.

Hey, Fyron, I checked out that link. As I stated earlier, I read it and found it very informative. However, I d/l that file that you had a link to at the end, and now when I tried to open it, I can't read it. It's a .emp file, and I have no idea what program I'd have to use to read it. What do I need to read it?

DOH!! I wasn't even thinking that. I was thinking more of a HTML reader or something like that. Thanks.

Wow, that reeks of the rank stank of cheese. (no offense to the person of same handle) If that's the type of near-cheating one needs to do in order to win a PBW game, I am seriously considering not ever playing PBW again.

Umm... yeah... this is the information that most people pick up on after their first dozen or so PBW games... I just put it all into one place. It is not near-cheating in any way shape or form.
