But you must also consider that while you enjoy dressing up in a lion suit it is still viewed as informal and unprofessional. My problem with the theme of the game is that it comes off as a child's game when presenting to companies or describing it to any one and the names of the game pieces are somewhat difficult to associate with the objects. Which would you rather say to a CEO of a company who is considering donating money? Which is he more likely to understand. "The payload specialist throws the moon rocks into the crater" or "The human player throws the orbit balls onto the field?"
