Personally, I don't feel it's my place to edit another author's game
and gamma-release it myself (unless I would be making a contribution
significant enough to merit co-authorship, as in finishing a game
that was abandoned half-finished).

I refer anyone interested in doing so to my bug-report for
JSW64:Dragon32:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/manicminerandjetsetwilly/message/4694

To quote from that report:
>>>
[34] "BALLROOM EAST": The leftmost amoebatron is too fast to pass,
but you can walk under the barrel to get to "THE HALL". But this
does block off the most direct path from "BALLROOM EAST" to "TO THE
KITCHENS MAIN STAIRWAY".
<<<

It's not because of /this/ problem that the game is not item-
completable - it just requires the player to take a detour.

Oh - and I have updated my List of MM/JSW Games again.
