real world currency is also not 'backed' by anything else than what value people give it. So in that sense it is no different from in-game money - if someone is ready to give you something in exchange for x ammount of money, then money is worth exactly that.
Makes one to think on how would nation where almost every male has been deprived of full pleasure in life, would substitue that and if it would affect its foreign policy, military action, etc.
I guess, that examining correlation between violence and jews, muslims and americans sharing this 'tradition' would be taking a step too far. Or maybe not?
Also, even if certain subset of our species had evolved to be more resistant to headshots, it would be quite hard to notice. And after noticing - to test.
If you put it that way, then i might need to agree with you, that stalking kills people.
However, i still cant put my head round the idea, mainly becouse 1000 foot fall would kill with 100% certainty (if you jump with parachute, then it is not called a fall),
while stalking does kill people with quite low probability. Thats why I do not agree with using word 'survivor' in context of stalking, but completely agree in context of 'assault' or '1000 foot fall'
he was shot, wasn't he? so he didn't survive people shooting at him. that is understandable.

ATMs where you put your notes in, it caunts them and automaticly adds them to your account, or gives them back, if they are too damaged to be read?
Those are nice addition to internet banking, mobile banking and other means of transfering money without withiting bank in person.
