Remove Trog
EDIT: Or at least, remove the Be start. Making a choice to have no magic should be something you do at the temple if you are going to do it; not something you do before you start.
If it doesn't fit anywhere else, it belongs here. Also, come here if you just need to get hammered.

If you feel Ko and Ha are not different enough, don't use them (or use any).
The same for DE/HE.
If you feel Dg is too weak/boring, don't use it.
This is not a game for one player, there are other players who might enjoy content which you are trying to remove.
Too bad I couldn't win with Tm when SE was available, the same for Dj, Pr...

Wow, that is an extremely detailed, in-depth, well thought out, point by point response. It clearly addresses all the issues, and leaves no stone unturned.

It doesn't need to be in-depth. Bcadren made a bunch of statements of his opinion, and how this opinion influences his reasoning behind this post. I disagree (with each premise individually, actually, as well as the conclusion he draws from them)
Since these are are statements of opinion rather than fact, I can simply state that I disagree, and thereby state that I have a different opinion than him. I don't need to try to tear down a logical construct, or point out incorrect conclusions or statements laid on an unfactual foundation.
If someone said "Purple is the best color, therefore everything that is not purple should be made purple" I could similarly say "I disagree" and that would encompass all that needed to be said on the subject.
I could, if it would somehow make it clearer, break Bcadren's post down into sentences and write "I disagree with that" after each one, however I don't think that increases clarity or serves anyone.

I tried to find version 0.4 (I've been told it had kiting Centaurs) but failed. Thank you, maybe I will win with SE some day
