Me too. BTW keep your drool on your side of the list, it's starting to mix
with mine (uck ;)

No doubt for some.

I agree.

Again I agree.

Again I agree.

(Echo...echo...echo) I agree.

This one I'm a little scechy on. Does Doomtown have it's own list (I'm not
on the WW list). I tend to think that the card game and role-playing game
would be on the same line of thinking. Then again the whole card game rules
being argued would not interest the role-players and vice-versa.

I do think we should wait. I didn't get the feeling it would be a new
setting (like WW, HoE, LC) but on the lines of a crossover book like White
Wolf does with the World of Darkness line.

No thank you.

I think that's enough for now.
