Rather than go into all the convoluted silliness (which covers over 2 dozen spreadsheets); suffice it to say that if the developers change the game significantly I feel like re-writing my rules to incorporate the new play-elements. When this happens I delete ALL my characters... no matter how many... no matter how high a level... and start them all over at level 1.

The last time I did this was when Mission Architect was brought out. I have a strong, gut sinking feeling that Going Rogue will see me doing yet another system-wide reboot.

As someone who never shies away from using a pipe wrench to open bottles (seriously), I can easily testify as to how much damage metal under pressure can do.

Not sure if they're woodwork ones either - I think those usually use a screw to close them.
My dad has a small construction company - so I've seen the kind of tools they use
