GW rips off MW

Gamez Werkshop rips off Marting Wallas!

Marting Wallas: "You're neither getting my game, nor my money."

After targeting the world's most popular board game website with unjustified and inane legal charges, Gamez Werkshop is after the head of the world's most popular board game designer Marting Wallas. Board game collectors are in agony. Famous online auction site ejay is already flooded with GW's recent release "Mace Bulk". We counted about thirty auctions with an average starting bid of $200, double the MSRP. Contacting one of the sellers, we asked about the price and he replied that $200 was in fact a bargain price after enraged fans burned all copies in possession of public libraries and removed their anti-shill ratings for the game out of protest, sky-rocketing "Mace Bulk" to rank #1 overtaking the very popular simulation of watching a soft drink evaporate - "Agripepsi".

GW's demands this time are even far more unreasonable. The publisher of "All That Is Evil" is reclaiming an advance payment of $1000 they have made for one of Marting Wallas' unfinished board game creations. According to Marting Wallas and chief witness, his wife, their dog has eaten the contract. Internet lawyers are in accordance that this renders the contract invalid.

Out of loving sympathy and compassion for Wallas, a committee of board game collectors has already drafted a protest plan. Donations are collected to purchase flight tickets for the committee's most Analysis Paralysis prone members codenamed the workers. The plan is to place in every GW store one worker carrying illegally printed-out army codices for GW's most fiddly game "Yourgrammar 50X" and tasked to build the most efficient army with a limited supply of $500. The committee's spreadsheet predicts that this will lead to the full occupation of every store's staff, preventing any further sales and revenue, thereby bankrupting Gamez Werkshop.
