It's not popular as far as *I* know. Guys may be concerned with such
things, but generally don't express interest in any sort of comparison.
Has anyone out there actually *played* such a game?
I mean, I don't see the point. There's no potential for advancement,
it's a single-attribute system, and has a terribly limited charter.
Replayability is almost nil. ;>

the preservation of the old institution, and merely lukewarm defenders in
those who would gain by the new one." -- Machiavelli
