They did make things more interesting .

I mean, the kind that would make towns finally stop leaving giant piles of meat on the ground to rot, and then later start kicking out newspawns...
), followed by absurdly complicated "stone quarries" and now the total inability to understand that not everybody lives in Siom or Drojf when it comes to food needs (but again I'm not opposing the general idea).
The Book of Jos Chapter 14 wrote:
And Jos decreed that animals of the earth and the birds of the sky should have individual lives, like those possessed by the myriad peoples of Cantr. At his command, the herds, packs and flocks of creatures were rent asunder and the animals were no longer tied to others of their type, but were free to come and go as they pleased.
But all was not well in the lands after this, many animals took their new found liberty and fled to the roads , not to be seen again, Other creatures became victims of a new set of mysterious gates all over the lands, which allowed animals to enter new places, but only leave through one exit, and were forced from their homelands. And there was an almighty culling by the people of the Lands as they smote many creatures in a frenzy .
The people of the lands gave great lamentations to the powers , Oh lord where are our animals ? Why have they forsaken us? These cries were heard across the world, save for the lands of the French who gave great praise for the disappearance of the creatures which preyed on them .
And the Lord Jos saw and was not pleased , and commanded his servants to find a solution .
Jos's servants in ProgD set limits on the Cantrians so that their hunting would be restricted, then travelled through the land smiting the mysterious gates so that animals could once again , choose freely their destinations, and walk, crawl or fly through the world unhindered .
But even with these actions, the great counting of the wildlife showed that many animals had disappeared from the world , and at first there was no trace of them , then a sound was heard, and low , hiding in near the roads of the lands, in bushes and behind hills, traces of the missing animals were found, a spoor here , a feather there . The servants of Jos followed this trail and discovered the missing animals , 45 of every hundred, cowering in fear.
The new found freedoms bestowed upon them had driven them mad and they had fled for the roads to hide. In their panic they had shed there forms and left no trace of what type of animal they were, just where they had come from and where they were going.
The servants known as ProgD , sat with the lost animals and decided on what should be done. They then brought forward each spirit and showed them all the animals which currently lived in the places where the spirit came from and was heading. From the countless forms before them , each spirit was allowed to choose a type, and a new body was created for that spirit to dwell.
Soon all the missing animals had their new forms and were set on their way down the roads. Half of these were encouraged to turn about and
return to whence they came from.
Over the days to come, the animals will finish their journeys , emerging from the roads and their places of hiding . And Jos saw this and was pleased.

Potato salad just doesn't cut it in many areas, I'm afraid. There are certain people in the GAC, I think, who could do with a spanking.

Baked or boiled potatoes are essential. They musn't argue, just do it.
