Ultima is a relatively popular game (much less than Chess, of course, but more than many people think), I am an 'experienced' relatively good Ultima player (but far from master level, I think) and I have played it since many years before I knew about TCVP. It is played around the world, and it is played as described in this Pages almost everywhere, at least as I know. Usually, Ultima players are not gained for changes in the game, and once I have received hard words from an Ultima fan by my proposed 'Ultimatum', a game that was thought to be, in essence, a supposed 'improvement' of Ultima. Rococo is not an unknown game, it is eventually played by some Ultima fans, although it is less popular than Ultima. Rococo fans seems to be also contrary to changes in the game.
