Not sure about "10 or more", it's good to have a few paths to victory. But yes, I was trying to tweak them a bit to harder/interesting gameplay (made a couple changes while Herald). I was doing that by experimenting with the classic voting games but once again, no one's paying attention to that (e.g. I was sure someone else would keep up the 1xAGAINST/3xFOR strategy and block the Lime ribbon - was expecting my last one to be the Birthday or a Thesis, which are harder paths). Of course, a few weeks ago, voting was the only game in town... maybe now that we've got livestock, make a grindy ribbon for ais523 and change a couple of the other voting ones? :) -G.
