This has been some great dialog, but Marshall needs to satisfy a large audience and from the discussion on this thread, it looks like all should be incorporated.

By the way jama262, what the Hell is a "Slab of Beer"?

A slab of beer is not unlike a pitcher of beef.

I'm glad to see some progress. It's an awesome game and I'm sure it'll be a hit.

Its an Australian coloquialism.

A slab of beer is a carton of beer containing 24 "stubbies".

A stubbie is a small bottle of beer containing 375mls (we went metric in the past-viva!)

A normal bottle of beer is also known as a "long neck".

Its all a bit like eskimos having 24 names for snow if youve heard that expression.

Thanks for the info. I always find language tid bits fun to learn, especially when they occur amongst "English" speaking peoples.
