The list of spells that doesn't work is
not large but they are important spells.

Eating the Dead
Fierce Winds
*Resurect Noble
*Make Auriculcum

*I know for a fact these last two work. RN does not use the stated
NP and either the rule needs to be rewritten or the error fixed. As
for MA, the requisite materials were on hand and properly consumed.
If someone successfully executed an araculate without the requisite
materials, that isd also a bug that should be corrected.

However, they both _work_. It is EtD and FW that don't seem to work.

The noble point bug is very serious to a player who has lost the
point.

It is not a matter of just "Well if he ain't providing service I'm
going to take my $2.50 and go somewhere else". Take Rueben's case. 50
turns of spell studying gone. That is 50 x $2.50 wasted making $125.
Now that is US and given the shocking exchange rate in Australia that
is ~$A210. For that I expect a reply or two.

This is not isolated bleating by regular complainers, almost every
serious player has complained. I took my 'bleating' to the list as
everyone I spoke to about bugs said the same thing, "Don't hold your
breath waiting for Rich to reply or fix the bug". I must say I was
pleasantly surprised when it was fixed.

Bron has the comprehensive list of bugs. Could Rich just acknowledge
that the bugs on the list are bugs and not stuff ups in orders and
maybe a priority for fixing them or some acknowledgement that he
knows they are there.

PS send the elites to Rhonius, Dominik. I'm thinking of building a
new castle there. :-)
