Thanks for the clarification Gerri... we are not to do this for the online purposes... as most of us thought.

Thanks Gerri! I don't think I'm alone in wishing you and/or Ken would step in more often like this to give the definitive ruling before the thread totally goes off the rails.  It prevents stupid bickering among members and raises morale to see that the site owners are paying attention.

It may be obvious to most of us, but many issues like this should be addressed in the rules before they become a question.

I think the rules on Easter Eggs are pretty clear:
"Easter Eggs are extra features hidden on the disc and not accessible through an obvious menu option. Be sure to match language of the Easter eggs to the profile's locality."

This definition clearly applies to what was being talked about in this thread.

I do think this warrants a note in the Easter Eggs section.  Something to the effect of 'Features not accessible through an obvious menu option should not be selected in the corresponding feature checkbox'

I'd rather think this addition more appropriate in the features section instead of the easter egg section, or maybe even both, but that's just me

Ken's right; a comment would be appropriate since I could see the rule as written being applied either way.

I think you're right about both places.  That way the intent would be clear to someone who may not have thought to look in the Easter Eggs section.
