Point taken, but those of us who plan to make some money out of this game
kinda need to spread the whole scene as wide as possible. So I've got a
compromise. We'll come up with a name that has some hidden insulting meaning
that only us 'true' idm fans know about. That way we can laugh at the
suckers' ignorance, while at the same time taking all their money. Sounds
like heaven.
