yeah i know that's pretty much 65% of the ban/res list but this is Type 1 and from what little testing i've been able to do this version just works faster...tell me what you think...also sb ideas are more than welcome

I'd cut a braingeyser for a top. Also you probably want some kind of other win condition in there. And yawgwin Wink
