Phil: It’s the original English spelling. “tidbits” is an Americanism, since early Christian American’s were offended by the “tit” in “titbits”. o_O

True, i guess if you are gonna be upfront that you are making educated guesses its ok, i just don’t like how a lot of her rumours are passed off as fact, when really its not fact, just opinion. And i agree with you on revealing the sources, but i doubt we will ever see this from surfer girl as it will remove all the mysticism, which i feel is her main appeal.

I have no problem with rumours Discom, just make sure you say where your sources are and how likely the truth is. Whether you’re making educated guesses, or actually have inside news.

For example, she got hold of an early Resistance 2 screenshot and said that the whole game doesn’t look that impressive. She now says a trailer will be coming out this month and that the game looks incredible. Those new official screens must have changed her mind…

Perhaps Surfer ‘Girl’ should take a leaf out of your book Patrick, a little more fact and a little less glory seeking might not be a bad idea for ‘her’. Still, enlightenment can come from those who guess, and Surfer ‘Girl’ would make a better source than me!
