I do not know what the term "troll" means in this context, but I had no evil intent. I just wished to point out that there are dozens of GM's who cannot play crafty because there ratings are below 2850, the cut off point for playing crafty at the time I made this post. I also realize now that I was partialy wrong, because Mr. Hyatt says now that he often makes exceptions to this rule by giving select players a 'password' to play crafty.
