Heh, sounds like you'll get to go there lose all your money come back and still be waiting :P
Too fast a woody that stays up too long? Perhaps 2 seconds up and 10 down would be better than 1 up 60 down. I was just trying to make a point with those numbers; they were hardly tuned. Also perhaps the child penalty of 50 is now too low and IIRC the 95 used a long time ago may give the shell a better chance of firing up.
