You need to update the rumors Stickymonkey put out regarding GW's digital products for August. I've put my comments in the original thread.
Also, you need to mark all the "And a few more WFB PENDING" as being too vague.

Breotan,
We had already given him a date related false for the first batch since that was the crux of the first part of the rumor. As with most rumors, however, unless the date is integral, we don't count it as a false. So there's till a chance we will get these digital releases he mentioned and it will just be 'wrong date'. I completely agree with the TOO VAGUE entries though and updated them.
Thanks for the heads up! Automatically Appended Next Post: Updated all of the Faeit rumors, but allowed for a retraction of the garbage he posted that he said he disproved. I left it in there for historical (hysterical) purposes, but won't track it against him. I will track it though.

Um...why? I don't see the logic in that. He posted them, they're rumours, they're (probably) false.
It rather defeats the point if people can just retract them and not be tracked for that - he chose to post any rumour that came his way, that comes with downsides

Yeah, I'm certainly open to feedback about it.
My thought was that he retracted them like the next day so they really didn't have a chance to last as rumors. Of course, if he had fact checked them or disproved them first, he wouldn't have posted them in the first place. You know what? You and I just convinced me, I think.

I think it is OK to retract as long as as you do it without provocation from another source and if it is done within a reasonable ammount of time (not months later).
It would have been something entirely if Naftka had retracted his statement after Harry or Hastings said it was rubbish. But Naftka retracted it without any apparent feedback from the online community.

A few more Faeit clarifications:
The ramming Land Raider isn't happening (it would be on the summary sheet even if it has the same armour values)
Hades is 36" range but apart from that Faeit's profile was correct
Dragon HP/Armour he got right
Dark Apostles 3 per Elite slot is false, they are HQ
I don't think you can give a TRUE for Chosen Terminator Troops just yet!

Is it wrong that I can't wait for theDarkGenerals percentage to drop?
For some reason people seem to believe him on Warseer.
He tends to get obvious or vague rumors right but fails in anything detailed.

He's at 50/50 right now which is pretty bad. Automatically Appended Next Post: Marked off most of the new units that have not been seen in any of the unit lists as well as the special characters. This means ghost21 got hit hard.

Regarding ghost21:
I can't remember what he tried to tell us about the dark mechanicus and the Slaughterfiends.
Both rumours are marked as false but maybe he accidentally meant the warpsmith (together with all the daemon engines) and the maulerfiend respectively.

Can I do my take on theDarkGeneral?
-that several special characters look to be getting varying levels of Eternal Warrior (1-3), including Abaddon, Kharn, Typhus and two more. PENDING
Well, varying levels of EW don't exist, they were entirely a Pancake edition thing
- Chain Axes. One being simply giving them Rending, the other being +1 Strength. PENDING
They exist, but are AP4 (confirmed on German summary sheet)
-Alpha Legion may be able to pass on their Infiltration abilities to their transports PENDING
Non-ability, everybody can do that in 6th
- "lots of "New" special characters ranging from bikers to (possibly) a dread and quite a few Terminator Armored ones" PENDING
False, nobody new on the summary sheet
-Thousand Sons Psyker Dreadnoughts, Flank Marching Alpha Legion Terminators and Iron Warriors Havocs with "Tank Busters" rule. PENDING
Negative on the Dreadnought, there is only the Helbrute and it has no such option
- *Thousand Sons: AP3 bolters will be MUCH more useful under 6th Edition, and a couple new Psychic abilities, one of which (supposedly) can remove an entire enemy squad from the table on a failed stat test! PENDING
The part that isn't uselessly vague is completely false. No stat-test powers in the codex at all.
- *Iron Warriors: Iron-Fire Cannon (thunder fire). Basic Chaos Marine squads "may" be able to take an additional heavy weapons team once past 10 models... PENDING
No Thunderfire equivalent in the Codex

Just wait till all his Legion-specific nonsense gets debunked. There must be another 10-15 misses there.

Which makes this comment by him all the better!
theDarkGeneral wrote:Yup he/she is but if they followed my actual posts would realize that my info is NEVER finished product stuff and often varying stages of R&D. Most substantial projects take many twists and turns and often several re-writes. I'm still viewing some of the early 6th Edition rules leaks as alpha/beta tests and concepts. But many short sighted players want or assume everything anyone posts for rumors is printed gosspel awaiting revelation...lol!

Hi Pretre,
I was wondering how you approach the situation in which one poster posts a rumour and then later on another poster mentions the same rumour. Do both posters get credit or just the original poster?
