I seem to be getting an email every time someone does something on Mantis to a bug I've commented on. I've unsubscribed from all email alerts in preferences but it's still happening.

Assuming you've bought the game you should have access to the Alpha forum which has answers to nearly every question really :) If you're having trouble activating there are a couple of stickies at the top of this forum that can help.

Bare with me, this is a complete braindump of some thinking I've been doing in the last few hours and it's going to sound far more garbled that it probably should!

You're just annoyed because nobody has replied to your cook post aren't you :p

Indeed you can.

Although they appear to be a bit over-powered at the moment, so I expect them to be nerfed in the future.

They want constructive feedback. Your posts haven't particularly been that. If you're unhappy purely because there isn't much to do, then your expectations for an Alpha (paid or otherwise) were misguided. And nobody else has reported being sat twiddling their thumbs, in fact, people are reporting th...

I always thought it "I lick your bum bum der (there)"
