Why?  Because it's exactly the sort of thing you'd want to change in
custom rulesets.

On the subject: the dichotomoy between ruleset parameters and server
variables is becoming harder and harder to understand. A radical
solution: make them *all* ruleset variables, and permit ruleset
variables to be altered from the server commandline. (These
alterations wouldn't be written out to the ruleset files, it would
just be a way of having custom games).

PS: Sebastian, your version of mutt is generating a broken
Mail-Followup-To: header with the bare address 'swk', which some MTA
somewhere is (brokenly, I guess) completing to swk@xxxxxxxxxxxx.
