A *Brilliant* Idea

Post by Illithias »

So I was thinking, there's Fantasy Football leagues and suchlike and have become more popular than ever because of the internet and a steady supply of numbers-obsessed sports nerds, and that model can definitely be used for other scenarios. Then I realised - what about Fantasy World of Warcraft Raiding? People could draft raids from world premier US/EN progression raids, all the numbers and statistics are available online on the Armoury and data log sites and blogs and sundry, people put together their raids and each week server-down the numbers all get collated and people see whether they've got a fantasy server-first Cho'gal or what have you THE THEORYCRAFTING AND SPORTS STATISTICS NERDS WILL GO APESHIT OVER THIS IDEA and just think of the advertising revenue motherfuckers, they'd be all OVER a Fantasy World of Warcraft Raiding website like creepy nerds over attractive Asian girls. THINK ABOUT IT this idea is GOLDEN.

tl;dr I'm gonna be a billionaire, suckers

...Ceil and I had this exact conversation at work a few weeks ago.

Illi, why the fuck are we not having drinks right now?
Now hang me by this golden noose
'Cause I never been nothin' but your golden goose
Silver tongue don't fail me now
And I'll make my way back to you somehow

I'm learning Python right now, I could try to do something if I get all the way through it?

You better not be stealing my ideas, Martytongue. I know people. Lawyers. On the internet.

Fuck with me and I'll leave you looking like Taft after the 1912 Presidential Election. Defeated like a motherfucker.
