When the games I am presently in are concluded I will have played all 15 kingdoms at least once. . .
We should ask DuPont to write a treatise on the relative comparative strengths of the kingdoms?

When all the games I am in are currently completed, I will have played all but the GN at least twice. Hmmm, I need to get into a GN game. 
What can I say? I just enjoy playing the game. Winning isn't really my thing, I just enjoy doing different moves. Alamaze is my main indulgence in life, so I get my fill of it.

The next big step is to podium in all 15 kingdoms!

I expect to be at 9 in the next two weeks. Someone has to catch Wynand.

The next big step is to podium in all 15 kingdoms! I've started to pay more attention to artifacts in newer games. I'd mostly ignored them up until now, unless I stumbled onto them. That will probably boost me onto the podium in some upcoming games.

Artifacts I think will be the rebirth of the Mage kingdoms. The system almost requires mages for some of the better ones. I have spend most of game 300 playing with the artifacts. I like how they are challenging and you can actually find really nice ones still late in the game.

Artifacts are a major emphasis going forward. First, in The Choosing, many will be revamped, some removed, and several new ones put in place.
Guardians will be matched with the quality of the artifact, as was done in Fall of Rome. A few more non-conflict unusual sightings including a Power 3 wizard and a High Priestess and a Princess.

Nice! I still advocate the three sighting Quest.
I hope you get rid of the kingdom specific weapons like Troll Slayer and Giant Slayer.
It might also be cool to have a few sightings, or a class of them, that can only be found by landing a group on them or doing an 888 or 970 directly on the area. Meaning no HP or 978 can help you find them. Maybe the non-conflict sightings would be good candidates for this.
One last (for now) request and it is a big deal. Have the locations for all the unusually sightings be truly random. Too many are tied to certain regions and are too predictable. Why always have the Ring of Invisibility in the Northern Mists? Give the Black Dragon a chance at it!
