When Games Get Silly

Heh if you want to see silly then you should see ELA where silly is the
rule. Imagine if you will a rpg with hordes of attack bunnies that love
sweet potatoes and the only way to get rid of them is with explosive sweet
potatoes.

Or a bunny the 10 times the size of Godzilla named Cuddles. Where Paris gets
blown to hell not once not twice but three times. Where lysol can kill
vampires and Manhatten Island ends up 10,000 ft above sea level.

Even though atm most of us are waiting for a guy to post so we can all
attack the big ass dragon its as funny as hell reading the story, not to
mention being part of its creation.
