Excuse me.  If, by My Baby, you're referring to the Societies rule, I would like to clarify...

We did not argue because you wanted to make changes to My Baby.  We argued because you wanted to make changes that prevented M-Tek from functioning as it always had, that prevented WBE from functioning as it was intended, that overrode a peaceful negotiation Wonko and I had accomplished, and that introduced a significant exploitable flaw.

The aspect of our arguing that touched upon the Societies rule being My Baby had to do with claims that the Societies rule was obviously totally flawed and absolutely had to be rebuilt from the ground up.  That's what made it personal.  There may have been a flaw or two in it, but that doesn't make it obviously totally flawed.

Now, if there's an aspect of the game that you don't like, or that you think may present a problem, by all means propose a change.  But just because you don't like it doesn't necessarily mean it's obviously totally flawed.  It may not be obvious to others, it may not be totally flawed, and, from some perspectives, it may not even be flawed.
