Subject: [PATCH] Game over unmasks the mystery machines
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Hands already go face-up when the maze is won; now the roster does
too — a secret automaton's row reads 'archmage berserker (was a
mystery)' once the game finishes, broadcast with the final command
from either a human or the bot pump. Mid-game, the mood stays its
own business.
