    Default 7th Edition correction on rarity listing

    :-( The rarity guide on page 5 has a problem in the description for R10. The last sentence in this description is the same as the description for R2. Please disregard if you already know about this.

    Also note I did not find this rarity list on the website yet so people using your new master lists who do not have a guide will not have the full meaning of the scarcity values.

    Also a Question : I noticed in one of the lists (can not remember the exact one ), A rumor mill game had a R7 rating but did not have any more info. In the future will this say something to the effect that a protype exists or some similiar explanation?

    It's been addressed. Thanks! Actually it had the description for a 10 AND for a 2. Don't know how it happened but it's been corrected.

    Also note I did not find this rarity list on the website yet so people using your new master lists who do not have a guide will not have the full meaning of the scarcity values.
    I'm working on a web version of the preface, credits, and 'how to use' sections. Should be done with it soon, maybe even today.

    Also a Question : I noticed in one of the lists (can not remember the exact one ), A rumor mill game had a R7 rating but did not have any more info. In the future will this say something to the effect that a protype exists or some similiar explanation?
    That really shouldn't happen. All Rumor Mill titles should read $0/R0. It's possibly an entry that was moved from another section into the Rumor Mill and that field wasn't changed with it. If you see it again can you point it to me? In the meantime, I'll add this to my quality checks - most of which I really should have had done BEFORE printing the book. Hindsight is 20/20, though!

    Thanks for the comments and suggestions!

    UPDATE:

    I initially wanted to get the new editors' info in this but I think their names will suffice for now. I'll add the details later.

    It is actually in the online list for 3DO. In the rumor mill section there is Defcon 5 : Incoming and Software Toolworks Star Wars Chess, The with prices and rarity.

    They do look as if they were moved out of the released game section
