You sound like every non-technical project manager I've ever had... "Why not just do both and give the user the option?"... Sure you could do that, but it will take 2.5 -> 3x longer then just doing one. If you take that approact at every option when you add up all those extra little "options" they triple the size/scope/complexity/bloat of the project.
The SY-Spring site went up in November right? This is April and we still haven't seen a beta. Let's not create more work for the Yankspankers at this point. I would rather play something then endlessly discuss something I might never play.
Yankspankers: Ignore the forums, get it playable then release it!

What do you mean we haven't seen a beta? Whats that in all those pics/movies? Anyway, it doesn't matter if it takes that much longer to code dual features, from what I can tell we're waiting for Joninkomiko to finish, not the others.

Are you in high school? All the cool kids are doing it! Grow up.
The game buisness needs to be inovative and different because I'm tired of playing the same ol crap over and over. One advantage of freeware games is that you can be as out of the box as you want without losing vast sums of money.
-my two cents

I just played the latest settlers game and it used dithering and looked fine.

Now see here, i though putting both things in the game and letting the player decide was one of the main fetures of TA. In fact, i think it was stated as much in PC gamer (woo PC Gamer) and that what makes it great! So you can put both in, or else i will raise HELL. ALso thier are Three camps. Thier Camp (Dithering), Their Camp (Fogish thing/line) and MY camp (That uber cool static effect). So if you missed my idea, go back and look for it casue it ROCKS!
