There are good things such as healthy competition.   The idea behind the
"battle royale" was a take on the silly wrestling matches that go on.
Wow... can't people have a little bit of fun?  I in no way meant to be
divisive.

As I said above, it was a toungue in cheek reference, not being combative.

I think the community will win either way, if it's Farsheeds theme, or
Steefs.  It doesn't matter to me.  I am simply taking  what I saw as a lack
of progress and trying to help things go  forward.  If I am getting in the
way of said progress, I'll gladly disengage in what I'm doing.  I was only
trying to help.

To get something moving forward.  Aren't we on a short time frame?

I am not sure, Trae, that you can be a neutral, impartial advocate for the

*sigh*
