the applause from thirds doesn't mean nothing to me in this case, all i want
is to play and not be forced to stall nearly indefinitely on a certain
level....
beeing able to play the same scenario from different ways is very useful in my
view...

 do not know for you, but the motivation to play games (even as different as
nethack and xconq)  of this sort is the playing pleasure, and not achieving a
certain score.... (which on any case doesn't mean anithing to me anyway, since
how could a playing action be really qualitatively noted???)
