This show is dedicated to the memory of Alice Kosac who gave us so much laughter: mom we will miss you dearly.

A special thanks to servitor at http://theservitor.blogspot.com/ for allowing us to use “but reporting habits that make game developers cry.” If you haven’t checked out Mark Jacobs blog at http://onlinegamesareanichemarket.wordpress.com/ what are you waiting for? Go read it now! That’s an order - We’re nuns and we have rulers.

Show 7 of No Prisoners, No Mercy: We love war hammer. If we didn‘t we wouldn’t talk about it so much and play it for so many hours at a time. But if we point out some virtual snot dripping from Warhammer’s virtual nose it’s only because we love Mythic so much.

1.) Mad as hell and not going to take it any more: the kid gloves are off and the ruler is out
2.) Well stewed Julie; Fran knows best
3.) Drilling my own teeth - the cost of starting in a well established mmo
4.) Azeroth, The Barrens: home of the fastest dogs in the world - it’s a mile between trees
5.) Groupies: WoW vs. War - getting a group
6.) I’m not bad, I’m just drawn that way
7.) My DPS is bigger than yours
8.) A quickie in Warhammer
9.) Tobold sells his soul for $15.00: Bottles and Blankies
10.) Making it accessible: Wow vs. War
11.) Crapfest

Special note to Crapfest (and the reason this section is not called Brewfest): while this used to be our favorite WoW festival taking away the ability to earn a special mount with Brewfest games took all the fun out of it for us.

Mad as Hell and not going to take it any more:

• EU Warhammer beta failure
• Mark Jacob’s Blog
