[generic] Commonly-used one-day game areas?

[Steven Valdez]

You might have more luck on assassin-discuss at mit.edu, since few current
undergrads are on generic.

But at least for Patrol, 36-1 is still being used as the main space.
36/34/38-{1,2,3,4} is traditional one-night space, but it doesn't have as
many nice multiple paths other than the stairwells.
