well everyone goes into the game for different reasons.  if you get the
most pleasure from gathering data, then go for it.  personally, i prefer
to be kept in the dark until it becomes a hindrance to me (that point
where everyone else has master lists floating around).  it makes the
game more exciting for Me.  YMMV

there are already several such lists floating around.  the play testers
have an advantage and there are folks who joined the game together as 25
players to get all the startup info.  hopefully, those lists won't
proliferate too quickly.

oh and let me comment on the thread of team play.  i also agree that
mepbm is a team game first.  I have more fun when my team does well.
others only care about racking up those victory conditions.  well they
pay their turn fees to have fun in whatever way they want.  now it
bothers me when players make my game less fun by persuing their own
interests before the teams.  but the world aint perfect.

just some thoughts.  good gaming to all.
