Walter, you don't know what you are talking about!! Here is what you said:

" By design or not it's a good thing IYT made the 13 X 13 board and used the original move rules too. Had they gone and made it as you guys would have it from the start I believe a lot less people would play it, nor would there be much discussion here about it or it's future. "

This is nonsense!!!! On what are you basing this? NOTHING! You just made it up! Had IYT implemented the correct rules AND the correct sized board in the first place, The same people would be playing the game as are playing it now. How can I say this? SIMPLE-- you imply that people would not have played it because of a lack of a 13 X 13 board. Well, no one wuold have had any REASON to think that way, since the 13 X 13 board would have never existed! As for the restriction, the same can be said. So I would appreciate if you would not just make things up to suit your weak arguments.
