I'd wanted to do that, I would have started with a taunt about their
lack
of participation and failure to have anything interesting to post. You
know
how easily it is to manipulate someone with THEIR lifestyle. Did you
know
if you say gropos too fast, it comes out grubs? *sniff*

I'd originally thought '[FT-Beta] <AAR identifiers>', but fear that
subject-tag creep can get way out of hand. I'll reinstate my suggestion,
as
it's even shorter. I think fleet nations' and size are definitely things
that will allow someone to sort the playtest AAR's for comparison.

Good luck on that 'gropo stuff'; wish I could be there.
