Gah. What's bothersome here is that it has a Computer Gaming Magazine  
reference and a quote from Bartle, one of the iconic figures in MUD  
design. Those are two significant references. But the CGM reference  
was actually *ignored* in the deletion close because it was unverified.

Yes. Now we're treating print referencing with suspicion and  
hostility. Fucking brilliant.
