Difficulty logging in (and) servers going down--it's become a normal part of our lives.

And they are unannounced (and) you just see people on the server--guild list--start dropping off.

Gary Mccord
There has been that common thought that because [offers of aid] are not tapped immediately, they're not prudently used. We are pulling everything into a centralized database. We are trying not to suck everything in all at once, whether we need it or not.

Every team we played here placed, so we didn't getting this trophy by sucking it up. I'm certainly not displeased with what the kids did. I'm happy with what they did.

Dale Poffenroth
Nature shows suck ass, though cobras are pretty sweet. Pretty much any animal that has a gang named after it is pretty bad ass. I would go for an animal combo, like a bear that carried a cobra -- total unstoppable force. Give that thing wings and humanity is f***ed.
