in reply to A Level Playing Field

Not even coming close to knowing what was involved in terms of work, time and discussion, I can just thank the fellow monks for this effort.

I would like to ask: Why "Pope" > "Saint"? "Saint" should be the highest level since we seem to be using the catholic hierarchy. I could say the same for "Apostle" and "Pope". There were only 12 "Apostles", but many more "Popes"...

Best regards

-lem, but some call me fokat

    I'd guess there is only one Pope at any time, up to twelve Apostles and many saints.

    Seems reasonable to me, although the XP cutoff values may have to change from time to time. :)
