[QUOTE="EricNoah, post: 3310389, member: 4"] I hate to spoil a good running gag, so only read on if you are interested... [sblock]as indicated above Bugaboo was a masterful satirist. He posted about this sort of "pyramid scheme" where you recruited other DMs and got paid for it. It had some "getting paid to DM" elements in it as well as some other stuff that made it quasi-plausible, thus heightening the entertainment value. It struck some as offensive and others as funny. It kind of depended on how good your BS detector was. He even made up a fake website for it. The sad thing is I can't find the DM Friends Network stuff anywhere -- I would love it if it tuned up in the Internet Archive or in a Google cache somewhere. To my knowledge, the man behind the Bug did not, in fact, fall on 3d12 four-sided dice and perish. I will be mortified if it turns out to be true. [/sblock] [/QUOTE]
