Thanks.

Yeah, could Google, but used to folks from chat jsut handing out the most relevant link.

No, no. It fits the subject well.

(Ack, edits show up way too easily on this forum. I'll have to actually *gasp* Preview if I don't want to be branded with an Edit. }:p)

Got a link handy for this? Reminds me of one of Heinlein's 'Beanstalks'.

I'm not sure if you consider Errant Story a popular comic or not, but it is a good one.

KESTENVARN: Isn't that what I said?

Whoops, didn't see that.

At one time the word hell was googlebombed to the Microsoft website too.

Appropriate...

I've heard about this... it's called googlebombing or something of the sort, where a bunch of folks link to a site using certain descriptions in order to mess with search engines.

A little late, but in case you guys are still interested here's a few links.

Discussion on the plague.

Paging CNNMORRIS

Okay, you absolutely MUST do a story on the recent Plague that is affecting world of warcraft.

Heres the skinny: Blizzard adds in a new instance, Zul'Gurub. Inside is the god of blood, Hakkar. Well, when you fight him he has a debuff called Corrputed Blood. It does like 250-350 damage to palyers and affects nearby players. The amazing thing is SOME PLAYERS have brought this disease (and it is a disease) back to the towns, outside of the instance. It starts spreading amongst the genral population including npcs, who can out generate the damage. Some servers have gotten so bad that you can't go into the major cities without getting the plague (and anyone less than like level 50 nearly immediately die).

GM's even tried quarantining players in certain areas, but the players kept escaping the quarentine and infect other players.

I think a story on how blizzard dealt with what is now an epidemic and how it came about would be awesome.

A video of it in action. (I liked the one done for the Blackrock server better, myself.)
