If we are going to be competing for a high score, the adition of treasures and monsters would enable a higher score based on the luck of the draw. I like the idea of having dual modes--one classic and the other randomized if it can be done. -- God loves everyone, but probably prefers "fruits of the spirit" over "religious nuts!"
