My understanding from TH a couple of days ago was that it was going to be a couple of days or so before he had an answer becusae the person he needed to talk to was out of the office.

Err I think it was a developer he was going to ask about a question I posed to him about aggregate limits...not the numbers that he is waiting on but he hasn't replied so I don't know for sure.

Just like any "business" there is a chain of command ... where people are "responsible" for certain things ... it's their butts on the line so they get the biggest say.
I am sure whatever decision is reached it will be due to multiple inputs ... but I can tell you the final decision is probably with the lead live designer ... he is in charge of the game ... he says jump ... and the actual coders say "where to and how high" ...
Folks like TH and the coders will then go back and say "But Boss, we think it should be like this instead" ... and the Boss might say "Good arguments ... do it" ... or he may say "Sorry, there are 10 other things you have not considered, some of which I have not even told you about yet" ...
So ... Yes, the balance of things lies in 1 or 2 hands ... but I would say that most of the time, those hands do what the "team" recomends.
Scary huh? That's the real world ...
