For the record, Chris has been taking too many "humble" pills again. ;) But 
thanks anyway. ;) Chris' manuscript was fine, but only so many words fit in 
64 pages. The few actual problems that arose in playtest were mainly 
restrictions imposed by Goff because of Doomtown concerns. That, in turn, 
came from on high, by me, without ever seeing more than a brief outline of 
the adventure (we spec out the events we want to happen and then let the 
authors interpret them as they see fit).

In the case of Doomtown, we supported it because the card game was in full 
swing at  the time. When it was canceled, we decided to return to our own 
sandbox and let Gomorra sit for a bit.
