Nope. I say it's a SC pretender! There's nothing quite like watching one go a rompin' and a chompin', or slicin' and dicin', its way through the ranks of your enemy, all by its lonesome. Then there's the whole feminine Barbie & Ken thing about dressing up your favorite boys & girls in all sorts of nifty outfits ...

Agree, but you can also dress up your rainbow in groovy outfits. I always go for the cool accessoires. Although I cannot spell it, I love it.

So were you sad to hear of Barbies break up with Ken? I wasn't all that surprised by it actually... if the rumors about Ken were to be believed that is...

SC pretenders are just too gauche for my tastes, there's no subtelty with them...

Sad? No. Annoyed? Yes. More of this overly-feminist PC stuff.

Lies! All lies! A smear campaign from far-right fundamentalist {insert religion here}, I tell ya!

And a good thing too, since it's John Edwards that's from SC ...

[licker]

LOL!!

SC pretenders... Edwards truely is that, a pretender to the throne (or nomination, take your pick ) Too bad really, he has a much higher electibility quotient than Kerry does, but no matter, once the money comes out I think we know what will happen to the Democratic whipping boy...

McCain Feinstien needs more teeth, or any teeth for that matter... Cripes how I've wandered from the topic...

I often do target my rainbows for specific searches, or I just stick them with 2 in any path where I want to cast the site search spell that my national mages don't get, though that's not as effective (usually) as sending them out on a searching spree, I'm really digging Caelum these days, flying rainbow searchers from turn 1... now that's a good thing (friggin Virtue has too high path costs...)

For the record:

To find 75% of all magic sites, you need 2 in everything except Astral, Holy, and Unholy (3 in those).
To find 90% of all magic sites, you need 3 in everything except Fire, Holy, and Unholy (2/4/4 respectively).

With the 75% magic numbers, you'll be able to find 326/386 sites (85%). With the 90% magic numbers, you'll find 370/386 (96%).

Is there a list of "site rarities", or are they all the same rarity?

I haven't looked at the site list, because I have more fun wondering and being surprised when I find something new.

Maybe IW should add and subtract a few random search requirements to many of the sites when each map is generated, to mess up such over-analysis.
