pain,
what you do not seem to remember is that detmer, w, gregg, and i already won this argument once

the admins announced that they were going to change a gov type into a fast closing LG dynamo that could finish with a high NW

the original idea behind the change was that this gov type could maximize an LG strat that would be at home in the unique environment of the last few hours of express when low-defense countries have finally emerged from set long DR and an LG country could bring 540 out of 1800 turns to a shooting gallery

unfortunately somewhere between the announcement and the actual execution of the change, the dynamo was short circuited

those who play ffa are on their second or third set with the new gov and a debate is slowly starting to take shape on the B and S forum
those who play express have quite a few sets of experience with the newly empowered LGer gov type
the last few sets the LG gov type has been able to hang in the top ten until sunday morning even with the short circuit
if the gov type were changed to the originally announced parameters, LGers could charge from the low fifties into the top ten on sunday morning

if the short circuit was due to coding problems then the solution is allowing the gov type to drop land
if the short circuit was accidental then the solution is simply to outfit the gov type with the previously announced powers


i know some of you will not understand this post at all
no problem

the target audience will




those of us who play express

but it shows that the admins are open to the argument
