Wow. THAT was snotty.

Idiotking! A fellow Kael-hater! High-five!

It's pretty much 'Reservoir Dogs' as a western. A bunch of people trapped in one room, many of whom are obviously not who they say they are. Lots of fun. Hopefully he'll reconsider.

No, no. You have fun on the internet, now.

Uh-huh.
