1. RE: Euphorian conspiracy, is it a myth?

I admit I don't vote every month... but if RDS would send me a reminder
email I would!!! It's their fault, you know.

Plus, you can vote for yourself... and probably buy votes... so, to the most
diligent goes the free EUPHORIA.

2. RE: Euphorian conspiracy, is it a myth?

I thought that updating the vote statistics was a fairly manual process for RDS,
so theoretically,
Robert should know who voted for what anyhow.

Rob,

I would really, REALLY appreciate a monthly reminder that a new voting 
month is coming, even if just to members of this list.

4. RE: Euphorian conspiracy, is it a myth?

I must disagree here. smile

I think shrouded code--even completely bound programs--should be just as 
eligible as unshrouded code. Maybe they can have a limit on how much you 
can give them per person per month, but I still think it's fair. If 
someone wrote a Euphoria game that took off like SimCity, does the 
author deserve a free upgrade? IMVHO, yes, even if the program is bound.

(Now, you raise an interesting point, that shrouded code may not even be 
true original Euphoria code, but I would think that that is a seperate 
issue, and so should be addressed--and if necessary prevented--via 
another route.)
