    I'm freakin out man!

    Oh, and totally spicy mustard.

    And for Sammy, I would go with sorta on both counts. What does that get me?

    So, if Warhammer Online was spicy mustard, while World of Warcraft was a zesty ranch, would you assume the form of a pretzel and dip yourself in them? Which would be more pleasing to the palate?

    I was say both. Both seem to be different enough at major end game focus (PvP vs PvE) both have each of those but it seems like one may be specialized then the other.

    Listen, in these games, everyone has things they do and don't like. Maybe you don't like the core of the experience, the pretzel. But have you tried just using the pretzel as a mechanism to enjoy the parts of the game you do like? Is it the zesty dill of crafting? The creamy, cool of roleplaying? We can all find some common ground, I think.

    Do I have a cold at the time?

    Either way the obvious answer is Garlic Shrimp. Yum.

    Does the spiciness of the mustard represent heated battle of PvP? Or does it represent the heat of the fires of a burning capital city?

    If Warhammer Online was made of barbeque spare ribs, would you eat it?

    Also, all this info coming out now about guild management is fab. Now that we've already mentioned the infamous betaleaks.com, there is a certain document therein that would inform you of a number of features in WAR and how they currently perform.... let's just call this a file, that when you open it, you are presented with the beta manual for the game.

    Oh shit. That's not subtle at all.

    Me neither. I spent all of yesterday, from the second I finished working till I went to bed, dipping pretzels in zesty mustard.

    And then rubbing it on my nipples.

    Brown mustard is the correct choice for pretzels, IMHO. However, horseradish hybrids, much like Frankenstein-monsters, are a power to be both respected and feared.

    Picking sides? Like a baked potato or hot, tasty fries?
    I wouldn't trust that manual to be the most up to date piece of information.

    The one I might have read came from the upcoming beta build. Is that one out of date? I mean, they went and removed all the cut classes from it.. so it can't be that outdated.

    It had some tantalizing information about how siege weapons are controlled. Or, maybe it did not.

    Edit: Looks like you pretzel lovers are getting the new brand of pretzels coming soon...

    One doesn't *always* wish to eat poultry when helping young siblings with homework or other such activities. You would never be able to offer assistance to your young charges without having to stuff your face full of chicken.
