I'm going on vacations for the next few days, so i won't be reachable.
If you want to give the game a try, fetch it from my user directory on sf's=
=20
shell server: shell.sourceforge.net:/home/users/m/mo/monomer/D20ME
I would like to hear what you think about it. (this may include thinking it=
's=20
crap)
Greetings, dimitri.
