If Markus makes ~1.75 million on this game, then I need to start charging more for game guides.

I'll do one better:

If Markus makes ~1.75 million on this game, then Marc Duffy should be making more than minimum wage! (Assuming there is one in England)

Ouch....

Well, there is no excuse then for the delay in TRTR if he is sleeping out of his office...

Sounds about right.

That being said, I'm in rare agreement with you.

Well, Duffy, you still get high marks for a great sense of humo(u)r from me.

This gave me a good chuckle:

Later in your career you can definitely use this one in an interview.

"Mr. Duffy, what skills do you have that might set you apart from other marketers?"

"Listen, bloke...there was this one time."

To all hobbit/elf/dwarf/orc fans,

Lord of the Rings Online starts its open beta the end of this month.

If you find hobbits too cutesy, you can play an orc.

Another Mike D · 03-09-2007, 08:43 PM

I like the game, too. I have been pretty behind at work all week thanks to Markus. Just to try and get the thread on track...

And you used the "in a single mouseclick" line from my online league blog, too.

I thought that was pretty cool.
