Colleagues: Given recent modifications to the game, we believe there are certain implications that should be addressed. With "reinforcements" coming forward to previously cleared areas at unpredictable times, and sometimes breakneck pace, the question of where they originate becomes salient. If the reinforcements are being drawn from interior squares, then there is no issue, we are simply meeting them in a different location and on their timeframe instead of ours. If, however, these reinforcements are being added to the TA army population on top of what was already present, then we may be playing a game we can't win. Arbitrary additions of reinforcements could eliminate the possibility of effort and skill determining the outcome. In short, the developers may, if they choose, add monsters faster than we can splat them. For these reasons, we (undersigned) respectfully propose the following strategic splat plan designed to reveal all remaining armies on TA. This would be accomplished by clearing 10 (yes only 10) spots. They would be 10413, 10239, 10274, 10347, 10348, 10313, 10278, 10277, 10276, 10241. The first four blocks indicated are visible (under varying stages of clearing) and have a total of 623,450 monsters on them at present. Assuming the others have 120,000 each, the balance would be 720,000 monsters, for a total of 1,343,450. Once all 10 spots are down, we will be able to verify the total monster population and track it (up or down). This could be done even on a daily basis, if desired, providing the first genuine opportunity to accurately forecast TA army genocide. We must emphasize that this type of plan is the only way to take control of our destiny, because as long as there are hidden squares, we could be facing continual and arbitrary reinforcements desgigned to prevent completion of the project. We would like this proposal to spur discussion (please use this thread), pro, con, modifications or amendments. We would definitely like to see projections based upon past data and reasonable assumptions, proposed contests that further the goals delineated herein, and leadership such as JAG offered for a remarkably successful assault on the mystery square. If the major splatters are interested, and the vast majority of us can get behind this plan, we believe that we can accomplish much, and have a great deal of fun. Subprime and VOD
