Not that I have seen. I have talked with two people that are using your new client. The only comment that I have heard regarding it is the supposed inability of finding a help document or help screen showing the default keymap. Please note that I do not use a Mac and have no used your client; just passing along the single comment I have heard. Also please note that there very well may be many more people using the client on the twink server then I see on any of: continuum, pickled, pulsar-zone. I do not play on the twink server so I have no way of gauging it's usage there; perhaps Bill can shed some light on it? That's quite a few downloads, I must say. It's a shame that the twinky sturgeon server has completely destroyed pickup; if more people were on continuum the chances are much greater that they could be taught the finer points of the game rather then shooting at silly 'bots and getting twinky 'upgrades'.
