Big Fat Gospel of Menoth
The other side of the internet

Jerry: I say good show ol' bean! Eldar again this week Teddy?
Teddy: Fraid so Jerry. They gave you a might trouble and if you don't mind my saying, a right thrashing!
Jerry: Bravo! I say what has Neddy gotten himself into?
Neddy: I fear my good men have startled up some trouble with the tyranids. And my assault squad has just ran cross some rotten dangerous terrain.
Jerry: Frightful!
Teddy: Nasty business that.
Rex the III: My good man I declare that you have made a rather disastrous move there. I have no choice but to have my trygon eat the poor buggers.
Edmonton: Gah! Gastly tinny word that is!
Neddy: Right you are Eddy.
Alice: I dare say you boys must be thirsty! I made you all some tea. Eek! Such a brutish sight all of this war!
Teddy: Right you are sis, best you go have a lie down before you faint.
*Bishop Dinsdale enters*
Dinsdale: Good evening lads! I say what have ye got ere?
Rex the III: I say good evening your holiness and what a wonderful day. Seems our little gang has started a bit of a scuff between these little men.
Dinsdale: Aye that seems te be the case. This seems like witchcraft what with these daemons about!
Jerry: Nothing farther from the truth, Father. Tis but a bit of fun and whimsy.
Dinsdale: Alright. Well I must be going. Must tend to the garden. But say yer Hail Marry's just ta be sure!
Edmonton: Will do. See you Sunday.
*bishop leaves*
*Rex the II enters*
Rex the II: Ah! What a ruddy day at the office. What the hell are you boys doin?
Rex the III: I dare say we started without you Dad. Couldn't wait.
Rex the II: Well let me grab my Orks an I'll show ye to step out like that behind your own dear dad!

Given that Wells is a man from shampoo industry and never gamed before... I think he views the client base like this.
Target.
To be milked until it becomes...
Unpleasant by-product.
At which stage it will start making noises and hollow threats and yet still continue to spend. Ignore or tell to get lost.

"Did you ever notice how in the Bible, when ever God needed to punish someone, or make an example, or whenever God needed a killing, he sent an angel? Did you ever wonder what a creature like that must be like? A whole existence spent praising your God, but always with one wing dipped in blood. Would you ever really want to see an angel?" |

From the same land that brings us GW comes Sue Rabbit Roff (say that 10 times really fast). This doyen of sensibility has a smashing idea for students to pay off their loans - sell their kidneys (well one of them anyway).
