sounds pretty good idea - Paul gets veto anyways and I trust his
judgement.

Good point

Oh god I looooove Cracked. I liked it from my first play but ever since I
pulled a blinder about a mointh back where i got the sniper rifle and got
on the roof and just *slaughtered* every one. It was sooo good I was
making instictive 'turn and shoot' shots over the edge of the building
and cleaned out the level (with about 8 people on it) soo fast. This
happens very rarely to me so I loved this. Cracked can stay on DM as long
as you want. 

Sorry had to get that off my chest.
