Out of curiosity, what method are you using to select your pivot? First element? Random element? Median of three?

...the image Leviathan used on the front page. We had been toying with classic art last week, so I found a photo of the hieroglyphics depicting what it's avatar already showed, and then carved a Traveler upon the figure's head.
