  Yes, I know. You two did a great job! I was just re-iterating.

  BTW, good luck to everybody with the Solitary Confinement competition. The submission deadline is getting close! I'll be sending in a game this week, and my brother Steve and I will be jointly submitting another. If anyone has been thinking of submitting, but hasn't yet, let me say from personal experience that it's possible to come up with a good game in a week if you're feeling inspired (feeling inspired is much more important than slogging through the process for weeks or even months). As for play-testing, well, more is always better, but sometimes a game can emerge pretty close to final form, and anyway, with solitaire games, play-testing (even fairly extensive) is easier because most of it can be done without other requiring other people's time. I urge anyone who is tempted to definitely go ahead and submit! We're mostly all very friendly here in this forum and so there's little to loose and much to gain.
