[edit] To: Charles Matthews
I respect much of the work you have done for Wikipedia. However, you used a minor edit flag for a change that was decidely not minor (even if perhaps justified; I am open for debate on that matter).
Similarly, you inappropriately used the word "product". While it may be correct in some technical sense, the term "product" is normally applied to commercial endeavors. Ambition (card game) is decidely noncommercial. I wrote it with the purpose of writing a great game. (The fame that shall come with its growing popularity is, admittedly, a not-ignored secondary goal.) It was in no way, however, a product of any commerical sort, since I did not invent the game for the purposes of monetary gain. Mike Church 11:38, 23 Apr 2004 (UTC)
Mike - I think that there are several hundred other invented games at pagat.com. I think you should not expect promotion of Ambition to stay on Wikipedia. And I think most people would regard removing yet another plug for Ambition in the fly-swatting, irritation category.

I look damn good for a fly. (I just asked a woman to vouch for this, 20 seconds after reading your comment.) There are also very few flies with such good command of the English language. So, if I'm a fly, well... at least I'm, perhaps one might say, a man among flies. The not having wings bothers me, though. Someday... Mike Church 18:46, 26 Apr 2004 (UTC)
