The game was declared an exhibition a long time ago. Rule 1926.2 happens. One thing to discuss: ThinMan consistently did not capitalize his definition, or, in this case, the proper nouns in his definition. I capitalized them for him, but was unconfortable performing any edits on the submitted definitions. I believe I noticed that another Brainiac did *not* do this capitalization, and thus allowed an easy rule out. Most Brainiacs appeared to have done the capitalization (or all definitions submitted to them were capitalized). The question is, how *should* we do it? Edits or no edits? I would prefer none, but most of all, would prefer consistency. Any comments? Malenkai ------------------------------ End of Ackanomic Games Digest V2 #54 ************************************
