I agree. I'd also like to see him adress the permanent loss of NPs
that happens when a noble who has left service due to an expired
contract dies.

These are both clearly bugs, both were been reported months ago, and
no indication has ever been given that they will ever be fixed or
compensated for.

minor nit: the movement penalty is limited to twice the original route
distance. I don't know the terrain involved, but for most terrain,
that would be 8 days, maximum, 10 days for mountains, and a bucket
of days for swamps.

But I do agree with the main sentiment, what they accomplished
should not have been possible, and this bug should have been fixed
a month or two ago. And the NP loss bug was reported last fall!

How about a little support? There are currently 312 people paying
$2.50 a week for this game. That's $780 a week (over $40K a year!)
that g2 is bringing in, I think we deserve to get better support
than this.

I love the game, but I'm getting frustrated at paying for something
and getting no indication that anyone is doing any support.
