  Organization of the scratchpad is expected to be somewhat dynamic and spotty, but do try to aggregate similar things together.

  ====Something is Better than Nothing====
  
    * "Fishing" feature.  At least make one pond in/near Scorn where it is used!  It is not restricted to fishing.  You can do "work" to get some inventory out of some static item like water, a tree, etc.

    * Mad Mage needs more in game info.  Only after many years did I finally figure out what he does.
    * Mork's tower 2nd level has an inaccessible room with mobs and magic items that glow on "Detect Magic" etc... Use that room somehow!  Invisible wall to allow mice to slip through unexpectedly?  Value as in-game training?
  
- ====Landscape====
+ ===Landscape===
  
    * Mountains to west are annoying and limit development of the area.
    * Make a lakeshore environment next to the port area and improve access to west side of town.
    * Those ships are cool. The shallow water is not!
  
- ====Quests====
+ ===Quests===
  
    * Add a few more simple reward quests - convert existing puzzles to give a reasonably nice item for a new player without creating an exploit.
    * Gork/Mork may need more obvious hints to presence of a quest?  Probably not?
  
- ===Royalty===
+ ==Royalty==
  
    * Make quest maps easier to find.  First quest.  Mushroom quest.  After many years have never gotten the dragon lord quest!
    * Mushroom quest is very dangerous due to poison.  Disclose to player somehow?

    * Advertise more widely via NPC dialogs (quest keyword?).
    * Convert other mini-quest/puzzles to royalty (half-step?) quests as a way of walking newbies through a series of reasonable level maps in sequence?  That room is huge.
    * Are the food rooms supposed to stay accessible to you once you advance in rank? They do now, but this seems like a change.  File a bug report?  Is a good thing?
