These decks have an almost negative fun factor - not only does the
player not enjoy it, but all opponents and onlookers donīt either. These
decks are played for the sole purpose of winning - some people obviously
donīt want a game to be fun. Even if their prize consists of nothing but
the 50th UW Promo...
Btw, Olaf can take a lot of slamming - have at īim, guys! ;o)

Not if I use my own version of the above - but thatīs no more fun, so I
donīt. ---Felix
