Ahem. After almost three years and thousands of laps, not to mention several
hundred pounds in upgrades I have finally squeezed under the aggregate bogey
times set by the Papyrus testers.

I think I'm beginning to get the hang of this game. I may move on from
Novice races...

Congratulations Tony. I've noticed you on verge for some time - don't
worry though, it gets easier from now on :)

Yes, you probably noticed me on the (grass) verge a few times as well...

Heh, just discovered Nethack (amazing game, very very deep (no pun
intended)) a few weeks ago (and subsequently rec.games.roguelike.nethack
and all their YAAP, YASD etc. acronyms.)

YANGA meant pretty much what I thought you were saying. :)

After their acronyms YANGA is easy:) But I seriously recommend
this game for anybody who wants to improve their 'Ring times.

Err, no. Nothing so up-to-the-minute, funky, groovy, where-it's-at-man (have
I got the lingo right ;-) YANGA was based on YACC - Yet Another
Compiler-Compiler - which has been around, ooh, almost as long as I have,
almost as long as UNIX (for our younger readers: UNIX is the slightly less
cool predecessor of LINUX). I'd guess that YAAP, YASD, YAAD have the same
source.

I'll have to have a look into this Nethack thing,

Cheers,
