Hi Michael.
it's not a cheat, but you can repeatedly kill lepricorns to get more and
more money off them, just hit a to attack whenever you find one, though to
be honest the game is pretty much too easy anyway in that everything is just
random numbers on its and misses and so long as you

Hi william.
I would appreciate that personally, sinse using us coins I didn't recognize
was one thing that turned me off the original game, however remember that
the values would need to be the same.
for instance, I don't believe in america there is a 2 cent coin, the way we
have 2 pence
fair enough points dark.
still trying to work out how to play this game smile
i am sure i would get the hang of clearing the board eventually just not yet

Hi Tom.
the same debacement of coinage happened over here, indeed part of the reason
Britain's currency became metric in 1978, revaluing the pound to be 100
pence instead of 240, despensing with many of the old coins such as
shillings, half and quarter pennies, gold sovereignes, crowns,
Hi tom.
Well the simple answer is, even if a currency is used for exchange trading
that is very different from knowing anything about it's physical coinage or
what coins are called in the country it's used in.
Though you can freely take dollars into a bank in Britain and get them
changed
How exactly are British coins done? I understand pound as the
basic unit. But what are the pounds divided into, ed what are
their spawn-offs (five-pound, ten-pound, that sort of thing)?

Hi Tom.
that is not a bad idea. I personally would rather like coloured coins as it
would make the game far closer to soemthing like tetris or columns in my
brain as they worked on colours, but even if people who were totally blind

Hi Hunter.
No, British coinage like American is for small denomination currencies. The
coinage scale is as follows:
1 penny, 2 pence, 5 pence, 10 pence, 20 pence, 50 pence, 1 pound, 2 pound
and there was a five pound coin in circulation at one time though whether it
still is I don't know.
Well hunter, each pound is devided into 100 pence. coin wise, you get a
penny (one pence), two pence, five pence, ten pence, twenty pence, fifty
pence coins, and of course the pound coin. In the mid nineties, the
government also introduced the two pound coin, which is now the highest
The five pound coin was as far as I remember a failed experiment used by the
government but only in certain areas, indeed I think I only ever saw one of
them.
they're certainly not around now as far as I know.
Beware the grue!

Nothing as far as I know.
sterling just is the technical term used in the foreign exchange markit
for British currency, probably to distinguish British pounds from Republic
of Ireland ones, (though there it is spelt and pronounced punts).

I'm going to come down on the unpopular side of the discussion here because

Hi Folks,
Instead of American or British or European coinage, how about the coins of
Dungeons and Dragons?
copper, silver, electrum, gold, and platinum.
Silver equals 10 copper.
electrum equals 50 copper.
gold equals 100 copper,
and platinum equals 500 copper.

Hi Ryan.
for me it is a question of identification and logic. i know! what british
coins are like, I have no idea what american ones are, indeed until Tom's
explanation I didn't even know that a dime was a tenth of a dollar.
At the moment, the game feels like playing with completely random

Hey Dark,
\The biggest reason James North designed the currency the way he did is
because he originally used the game as a promotion. At the end of the month,
the score board leader would be credited the amount of his score toward the
purchase of an ESP title. You can see how well that worked out.
Hi Ryan, Dark, and all,
Ryan basically summed up our line of thinking extremely succinctly. Using gold,
silver, etc, would be just as arbitrary to many people as colors would be, as
most metals do not have radically varying textures.
The problem would exist for nearly any system you could

Hi.
I would strongly recommend including the alternative coin ideas, sinse as I
said for me, and for anyone who hasn't held or had experience of the
american coins, the game just lack immediacy and interest, indeed I will
confess that was something of a putoff when i first played it, thus
Ryan didn't go far enough to accurately describe broccoli, but he was headed
in the right direction. An accurate opinion of broccoli cannot be given
here, due to avid moderators who would surely send me a private message

and that the reason for the server error message is because he's no
longer using dropbox.

I like the idea of just listing the coin values in the manual and being
done with it. It doesn't hurt to take five minutes to learn that penny
= 1, nickel = 5, dime = 10, quarter = 25, and dollar = 100. It's also
not holy important to have coins adding up to any particular dnomination
