I don't want to beat a dead horse here, but I'm confident that the lackluster response had less to do with your topic and more to do with the new design of the site driving people away. I know I'm down from visiting several times a day to a few times a week.

And they're all derivative of Scorched Earth.

Whenever I hear about these things, I think of a review I did for a Japanese Beyblade game some seven years ago for a GBA site I worked for.

That's pretty cruel. But I guess it teaches them their lesson.

Sounds like someone STILL doesn't understand what the internet is.

@Thus Spake Kate is effulgent.: Because it makes us lose hope when you creeper stalk you.

It's like parkour as applied to sitting down.
