[Bartholomew Foulsteel]

I hear ye. But a strong idea, in order to make it to fruition (and thereafter remain strong) requires both a strong leader AND a dedicated one. Dedication without strength won't do the task, nor will strength without dedication.

My personal belief is that the concept as well as the organizationw as far too involved for this game. It required far too much from people in order to make it work--nearly as much work as it would require to actually lead a business. When you consider that actually running a business is a full-time effort, I can understand why somebody would not be able to keep up with all that is required in a game.

I personally was not interested in the whole TBC simply because of that--it looked like Management and Business Org 101. There was a lot of "stuff" going on to establish a "company" but no product. At least no product worth the effort required that I could see.
