-Doesn't mean Dave can't ignore you anyway. Or decide that you want to win 
by passing a whole lot of proposals like "Give me a million points." In 
fact, I think that he should interpret your script to mean "I create five 
props a week with the text 'Give Teucer 1,000,000 points' and give each 
player my score/x points each nweek, where x is the number of players in the 
game." See where that gets you. Hey, bribery and proposal are good ways to 
win, no doubt about that.-
