SIEGE vs PRODUCTION SHARDS
The Arguments for Both Sides:
KEEP SIEGE:
> A lot of players prefer non-consensual PvP.
> Non-consensual PvP attracts hard core gamers, which are the backbone of any successful game.
DUPLICATE RULE-SET SHARDS:
> The vast majority of UO players voted against non-consensual PvP, with their feet, a long time ago.
> The Siege Perilous shard is not worth the extra work & expense. Broadsword could cut costs by making only one publish whenever the game needs fixing or updating.

GMO ON UO!
Genetically modified food – defined by the World Health Organization as food that is produced by “organisms in which the genetic material has been altered in a way that does not occur naturally” has reached Siege shores. Sources divulge that candies given out last Halloween “ain’t natural” and cause character degeneration leading to listlessness, failure to log on (or out) and house sitting while hidden.

MOVIE REVIEW
“Inside Job” stars the aging crew of “Fantastic Voyage.” In this sequel, a miniaturized medical staff performs a colonoscopy. Filmed in 3D Smell-O-Rama, the movie overpowers viewers. Recommended for our scatological and chocophiliac readers, 3 Stars.

The contestant choose 1 box to start the game, This contains an amount which is not revealed until the end of the game.

The contestant must then chose additional boxes, the amount of which is eminently revealed and eliminated from the game. initially 6 boxes, then one box less per round, with a minimum of 1. and the last box cannot be selected.

After each round of selections the banker will the make a deal, which the host will offer to the contestant (based on how much value still in play), which the contestant can chose to accept by stating “Deal” thus ending the game (and winning the amount of the deal), or decline by stating “No Deal” thus continuing the game.

VORPAL BUNNIES UNIONIZE
“We’ve had it,” said VBU spokesperson Sexy Wabbetta. “Easter is the worst time. Seems everybody wants to whack a bunny to celebrate a resurrection. Go figure.”
“But,” I implored, “You will take part in York’s ‘Skara Brae Rabbit Hunting Competition,’ won’t you, please?”
“Yes,” she grinned, her leg thumping uncontrollably, “But only because York does such … intimate … things with my ears.”

E. BOLA THREATENS
(A Paranoia Alert)
A particularily nasty character searches out Siege players who stealth within their own home. Never leaving home out of stark fear, these players are now vulnerable to E. Bola’s insidious “come-hither moaning.” Sounding like a sailor’s dream & quivering like silly putty in heat, E. Bola pounces as you leave your house, rendering you limb from limb faster than a Wolfin on speed. Never leave home!
