Cool - tx for the feedback guys. Sounds a bit like ATITD in some ways, with
the emphasis on crafting rather than the whack-a-mole of most mmorpgs. I'll
keep at it until it gives me the shits I guess

. The most annoying thing
is actually the very small game window in the browser on my native 19"
1280x1024 LCD. I guess I could change the screen rez, but that stuffs around
with all the other windows I always have open.
