[Grab it all! Own it all! Drain it all!]

    Dupes are sometimes more fun to play than Heros.  TOON is perfect in the
sense that it doesn't matter what happpens.  My favorite character,Herr Doktor
Verrueckter, is a Mad Scientist (DUPE).  He may fail in his efforts all the
time, but when he gets gronking, he *outperforms* all the Heros.  It isn't
what happens, but *how* it happens that matters in TOON.  Everybody has to
admit that Wile E. Coyote is easier to be totally silly and hammed up with
than the Road Runner.  (Although Tweety Bird is a good Hero)
