The hardcoded "bingo" farm was just because we hadn't implemented collectives or megaconglomerates yet. The way you have proposed it sounds good to me. :) The reason we want to avoid command-line args altogether is so that we remain portable. Ideally the entire input to flood can be a generated XML that works on windows and unix, and can be generated from generic UI's. -aaron
