Young
Talented hacker refers to self in third person sexually ambigous (refers to self as female at one point) Ted At what point does homage to a character in popular fiction become plagarism? Am I overreacting? Is the reference to Edward vague enough that this isn't a problem? ......ep.....gah.......what's going on? Is this okay to everyone else? Is this acceptable? |

Dude. If that's the worst case of plagiarism you've found in Loose Alliances, you haven't hit the UN section.
And, no, it's not. But it's not exactly ... uncommon. |

Really?! There's more?! Throwing in pop-culture references into your individual games is one thing. Publishing those references, er, borders on unacceptable.
Grrr....my hate engine grows! I must ask, what other atrocities have been commited? What else is ripped off? |

I catch the reference, but I never played the game.
