Marketing

[teleidoplex]

This is the most brilliant and cracktastic cross-promotion of all time. If I drank soda with high-fructose corn syrup, I'd even think about buying their product. As it is, I'm totally suckered in to the whole promotional schtick because I get

* a free battle-bot pet for all my toons
* the pet counts towards the pet achivement
* free fuel to fill my pet's tanks
* with the fuel, I get to fight my pet in game against battle-bot pets
* the raffle-token thing is free, so there's the extremely slight chance I'll win other shit.


So, yeah. I'll drink that kool-aid!




Whatever marketing guru came up with this idea totally deserves his porsche and his hot chick with cocaine on her ass for him to snort.

Or... I guess that's the 1980's. These days, it's probably a Prius, a yoga instructor, and macrobiotic prozac.

It is brilliant, isn't it?

And hey, grab yourself some Throwback instead of the GameFuel. No HFCS. It's what I do.

[teleidoplex]

Whahuh? What's Throwback? And HFCS? <---is confused.

[teleidoplex]

Nevermind. Throwback is an energy drink, and HFCS is High-Fructose Corn Syrup. And I, it seems, am a noob.

Throwback isn't an energy drink, it's Mt. Dew with sugar instead of High Fructose Corn Syrup. Tastes like heaven in a bottle.

I've been away from WOW for about a month (graduate classes have been a bitch). What server are you on? I need to make my way back to the game....grrrr!

[teleidoplex]

Horde-side on Sisters of Elune. And, yeah... graduate work can really get in the way of one's gaming =P

If you decide to roll a new character on SoE, /whisper me as Cinnavar. I'm an officer in a pretty cool rp guild that also does light raiding progression. We downed XT last night (and then proceeded to wipe a bunch of times on Kolo...so... y'know... we only kinda don't suck!)

I keep listening to the news speak about getting free online grant applications so I have been looking around for the best site to get one.
