   3 X = Finsihed
   4
   5 - Make an end monster for whatever the last level in the game is...
   6     that way the game has a point no matter how many monsters
   7         are done!
   8
   9 * Add a function to check how long until gameserv refreshes
  10
  11 - Gangs of people that can get together and fight other gangs in large
  12     group battles
  13     - gang names
  14     - gangs.dat file with numbers assigned to gangs
  15     - a new array of linked lists with each element pointing to an
  16         aClient structure based on their gang number
  17     - group battles would go on order of gang numbers
  18     - hired mercenaries (npcs)- ricky-s
  19     - level 3 and above can be gangs only - macblind
  20     - once you beat the game, you can create a gang - kain

  52     * Possible choice in gameserv.conf
