I cheaked the stories, another thing you did was change the chronology 
so that the events took place at the time the Anime episode aired, rather than 
before Shampoo's initial arival like it was supposed to.  This had the effect of 
artificially improving the skill of the Golden Pair since the Ranma who had 
faced Colougne and learned the Tenshin Amaguriken was dramatically faster and 
stronger than the one who had faced the golden pair by official chronology.  Oh, 
and Mikado's eyes were open and staring in the manga, it WAS him who got hit 518 
times.

Yeep.  What I had basically intended was to basically have the GP 
episodes placed after the shampoo incident, but before Ranma's training 
with Cologne.  I've had little chance to watch the TV series in order, 
and I had thought that was the case.  *^_^*  Perhaps I shall have to go 
back and look at that.  The intent wasn't to artifically improve the GP 
skills, just foreshadow at a future even in the series... 

As for the hitting thing, well, I've got to make the episodes look better 
for Mikado in *some* way...  ;)
