(mainly because i would have never made it at sc:bw anyways. ;-) ) Nice of you to completely miss me specifying that I am talking from economical standpoint. And regrets can go both ways, he can regret not going to school earlier. But that is geting too off-topic. I was just trolling slightly with those posts, because people responding to my original post completely missed the point. | ||

You can criticize what 100% proven means (especially clinical test) but that's all. Being a big company allows you to avoid legal issues when class action isn't available because nobody is gonna try to trial you for false claims, but it's possible. Look at the recent Nutella case in the US to be sure that both of you are telling bullshit. | ||

So much EG hate, why can't anyone just be happy a player is getting all his tourney trips paid for the next year (EG sends their high-profile players to just about any and every event they desire around the world). Never understood how people can't just be happy for the player (especially with such a hugely supportive organization behind them now.). Every EG player says the organization treats them so well and ensures they can focus solely on the game with everything else taken care of (sentiments from Huk and Idra from interviews). GL Thorzain, sick pick-up EG. | ||

Since 'legendary' is such a loose term they can throw it around easily. And every, literally every, commercial tries to hype up their brand. "Washing Powder X is quite ok compared to other brands." Or "This is the best powder ever! Just look at how those stains disappear right in front of you!" What looks better for the viewer? | ||
