    Very smart and inspired? You mean like, he just read George Orwell's book and then wrote something that's pretty much the same thing with changed words?
    You read it or do it and than talk.

    And its a figurative speech, if you've read a book or two, you'd know!

    The six chapters are all great and interestingly written, but you wouldn't know much about reading would you. You probably only read the front page of gamer and that was it.

    I haven't actually read it yet, but had to mention... 1.984... LOL. That is just too good to be true.

    How about "don't judge a book by its cover" ?

    You would have to read the story to find out.

    Ohhh I misread that. I thought he was talking about writing 1000 pages long.

    I already have , it just seems just the slightiest tiny minuscule bit exaggerated to say:
    BattleNet2.0 = Orson Well's "1984" Goverment

    More than you apparently.

    There are different interpretations of everything. Just because one or two people find something useless doesn't mean it is. I'm asking for another opinion.

    But, now that I've read:

    I have what I asked for. Thanks for that. Now I don't have to read it.

    I'm so tired of TL.net articles. They make some good points but often times present it in all of the wrong ways.

    (Do not flame or derail this topic. I know a lot of you loves you some TL)

    What I'm saying is that you don't need someone's referal to read 2000 words... It's interesting you concluded that you read more than I do, just from that. That makes sense.

    I liked it. There was work put into this, and it shows. Not the best TL editorial, or their most groundbreaking but it's a fun read.

    Overall I'm over the whole "balance" thing. I'm loving the game's balance, and I think all of units I like are getting used etc... I think the game is ready for release and now bnet needs work. This game is ready to carry the future of esports as far as I'm concerned.

    I DO need someone's referral when it's potentially wasted time during a tough school week and it is most likely "just another TL whinefest".

    Must you nitpick on everything I do?



    Rest In Peace, Old Friend.
