Custom is for either a permanent memento (e.g. patent title) or a minor competitive advantage (a few crops) but not contest-destabilizing quantity... otherwise it's boring to play through for everyone, might as well just offer the win through proposal and reset everything. (Not saying what e's got is destabilizing, I dunno if it is, just pointing out the principle). -Goethe
