Dear Dan Leeson:
Perhaps "general" and "commercial" appeal amount to the same thing. I think we
need to differentiate between appeal to a general audience, appeal to an
audience of players and/or enthusiasts, and appeal to players who might want
something to play which is difficult but not interpretatively challenging.
