(Now Philomory has no operators, I have no operators but one 'i', and my

Opinions sought on game balance: should we implement omd's suggestion
of limiting huge jumps by allowing a max of P operators in a given weekly
play (I'd guess a P of 4)? Other suggestions welcome (or happy to let
it play out). -G.
A P of 4 means it takes at least 1000 weeks to win, seems a tad much.
Except that I see a possible loophole. "Operator" clearly doesn't mean
the same as operator in math, since people are using digits, even in
sequence. Which means, what happens if you use _only_ digits as your
operators, once you've got a positive integer score?
Also what if you squeeze an i in the middle of a sequence of digits,
mathematically that's most likely to mean multiplication...
