>>>>>[Cerise, I think not. Elves can never win. Only humans ever win.
Don't
you know that? Orks and trolls are excellent manual laborers. Dwarves do well
in tight spaces, so mining and farming(where their bodys fit between the rows
better) fit them well. And elves, however long they live, are only good for
entertainment and athletics. And the best times I have ever had have been with
elven women, without compare. But humans...

But no, Cerise, if you die of old age, you win. Regardless of your metatype,
if you live over the average age of death, you win. If that happens to mean
that an elf wins if it dies at age 400, so be it. If I die, against all odds,
at over 60 years of age, I will win. How many of you so-called runners can
say that you'll die of old age? How many of your "friends" will die in thier
beds of clogged arteries? Not being a true decker, thanks to I.B.A., I should
have no problems whatsoever dying of heart failure at age 67 or whatever age
my heart, or cranial arteries, or liver decides to turn off.]<<<<<
