Oh, and I, too, appreciate the effort - often successful - to come up with fresh ideas after all this time.
I would prefer that iffy ones (if the staff does consider them iffy) be saved for the classic format, where it's not all or nothing.
And yes, I realize that the Esplanade was the only central point between two parks ... which, to my way of thinking, made it pretty much useless for both of them. Rather, I think there should have been some staffed location in each park. Having to take a big time penalty is bad enough without having to go so far (and back) for the privilege.
Sorry to nik pit. I know (believe me I know) it's not easy to come up with these games, and to keep them fresh year after year after year.
But, as with Alex, my skills lie in strategy and multitasking. No more Mad Scramble for me. Just not my cup of tea.
(And I hate to think how much I would have hated the compasses if I wasn't constantly tickled that €uro actually brought his own in a prescient bit of flukery.)
