Re: [Audyssey] speaking of the user's manual - Re: AGM world border
I couldn't agree more.

Either that or I'm just plain stubborn. Then again you know what they say about Irish lads. actually I have a feeling that once I can get the opponent, flies and things to behave how I want them to, get the scoring ironed out and record the numbers, and of course once I test it, my Frogs and Flies game might just be ready to put online or send to anyone who wants to try it.

Re: [Audyssey] speaking of the user's manual - Re: AGM world border
Hi, Just a quick note to everyone about the manual: We completely agree that it does not contain all the necessary information yet. The reason (again) is mostly time constraints, as well as that AGM eventually turned out differently that initially planned. We are using all of your feedback, questions and complaints to improve the manual.

Currently the only way to do this is lets say you
