Does anyone know which company is taking over BESM?
These are 2 examples that I knew from other sources (before Internet if you can imagine)
Vesna Vulovic was a stewardess on a Yugoslav DC 9 jet airliner that blew up in January of 1972 (probably as the result of a terrorist bomb). She fell more than 33,000 feet in the wreckage of the plane, which hit a snow-covered slope. The only survivor, she was badly injured and was paralyzed from the waist down, but later recovered and now can walk.
On Christmas Eve of 1971, a commercial airliner over Peru was struck by lightning and broke up during a storm. A teenage girl, Juliane Koepcke, fell two miles, still strapped in her seat. She survived, but her ordeal had just begun. Despite a broken collarbone and other injuries, she walked for 11 days through the Amazon rain forest and finally found help. Her story has been the subject of two films, the most recent being a Werner Herzog documentary called Wings of Hope.

I really liked name of that singer Plava Lagoon, since plava = blue
Bruce actually reminded me of taxi driver from Heavy Metal (original not 2000 version)
healer (priest/druid in wow) - keep players alive dps (mage/rogue/hunter/warlock) - do lots of damage (dps is kinda corrupted here, damage per second, should better be damage dealers) tank (warrior) - agro managment aka meat shield, goal of tank is to keep monsters attention on him via damage and taunts while others dps;)
But aren't you buying implied licence with book to perform?
You bought source rules and setting world to be used for gaming purpose, they even give you authorization to copy character sheets for those purposes.
If you need separate licence to play game with people how many would by books?
Interpol is more of police club. Some members are not officially recognized countries. Duties are more to keep track of dangerous people, new ways of crime, help coordinating against international crime rings.
One important thing is they will not issue Interpol Wanted for crimes for terrorist and other political causes, but they will still keep and spread information about suspects.

What is checksum for pronunciation?
nic, nik , nick same phonetic result different spelling, what is point?
photograph (ph doubles as f why?) you wouldn't understand fotograf.
It is accepted business language, but it is not perfect. My preference is one character for every sound so that way I can count how many symbols I need to end with. No spelling competitions, or memorizing how many charaters make a word.
Of course it will never be implemented:(
Depending on manufacturer if computer is Dell IBM, Toshiba they all have line with
Boot Priority, Set Booting Device or similar messages and press on boot logo screen.
So instruct user to press F12 and choose CDD.
You are forgetting to compare other games (any game in past 5 years) that had notice internet connection in other requirements. Assumption was only for multiplayer mode internet is required.
Maybe if they have worded persistent internet connection is required for all game functions would be more clear.
It is not easy for night elf to get to other races starting areas without warlock porting you.
You need still to pass level 20+ creatures on the way, especially npc orcs at tunnel entrance through contested area.
Most common for night elves is at lvl 16+ since druids have aquatic quest in westfall.
Question is also how to split teritory, check this site how various proposals split them
http://www.masada2000.org/historical.html
Most countries are kinda circular, following natural borders (mountains, rivers) except those done by administrative splits like political map of Africa.
Problem with software patents, you can't search patent database to see if you are not infriging. If you do you might be considered contaminated, since you have seen other ideas.
That reminds me like getting patent on "closed-room murder" for mystery novels.

In Canada they weren't success, but I knew few people who were using these as backup to their more powerfull laptops/computers.
