I dread to think what OpenHeroWars might be, by this analogy...!

I am a charitable man, and am not sure this is necessarily the case. I can assure you, however, that in all but the most extreme cases public moderator activity would only ever follow a flurry of *private* emails. We get very upset by persistent offenders. As I am charitable, I tend to assume this is due to sheer bone-headed ignorance rather than active malice.

Thanks for putting me right, Graham. I was reading your posted options along "moderation" rather than "delivery" lines. I urge you to keep the Digest down to just one a day, and also not to put much work into fixing something that ain't broke. Especially not when Secret Master Plans require so much of your time and attention... :-)

Heh... something I've always wondered is whether that number includes or excludes the Far Point region, which at the time of the Genertela Book is *administratively* part of the Kingdom of Tarsh (pop. 360,000)?
Cheers, Nick
