"Try again. It represents a trademark of a particular word within a particular context."
Within the context of DAoC, "Mythic Entertainment. Inc" represents the company name.
Within the concepts of Mythica, Mythica represents the game name.
Two rather distinctly differant contexts, and most people seem to overlook that its actualy called "Mythic Entertainment. Inc"
I wonder if Wizards of the Coast will sue "Mythic Entertainment. Inc" for copyright infringments on Wizards, Axes, Swords, Bows, and Scandanavian forests next? Realy, if this isnt pathetic, then i dont know what is.
RL$$ in MMOGs has already been done, see http://www.projectentropia.com this game combines both ingame and out of game currency. The game its self its pritty flawed, but its the first attempt that has made it beyond vapor-ware.
Step 1 - Analyse your food consumption. As a rough guide use http://www.ast-ss.com/asp/weight.asp to calculate your protein, carb and fat intake. Record what you eat so you know how much protein, carbs, fat your digesting.
Step 2 - Exercise 30 minutes of cardiovascular work in the morning just before you have breakfast will give your metabolism a much needed a boost for the rest of the day burning more fat and giving you more energy.
Theres realy only one way to burn fat, and thats to keep your pulse above your Target Heart Rate (THR) to calculate it see http://www.weightlossforgood.co.uk/target_heart_ra te_calculator.htm
Metabolizing fat is an anerobic process, so if your not puffing and sweating, your not burning fat.
So, to answer your question, take an exercise bike, or treadmill to work and a change of cloths. If your lucky there will be showers in the building, if not, you'll just have to stink. But better to be stinky than the a fat ol flubber-butt =)
I'm honestly surprised you chose to dignify the author of the article which originally claimed that games decrease brain activity.
And the claim seems to have been taken out of context.
Even though the article may have suggested that "decreased brain activity = stupid" this is obviously not the case to anyone who has read articles based on empirical evidence that the brain displays greater activity during sleep. One such example can be found at http://julkb.vortex.is/esrs/449.pdf
Which suggests that levels of brain activity is not be directly associated with how 'smart' someone is. Its how you use it that matters.
So, another way to look at the results that the previous article was foundered on, people who play computer games don't NEED to strain there brain in order to come to the correct answer. Now, console gamers on the other hand are an entirely different story =)

I wonder if its dawned on anyone that if they gave him fuel (assuming they have it) they wouldent need to give him food/shelter?
Naw, im sure there over it, i mean they can always get a win in the... umm.... nevermind. Bloody New Zealanders =)
