That looks incredible and I will buy it on day one. This thread is now about Retro giving Ben 200 pounds so Ben can play the alpha.

Retro, could you update us on how much money you have given Ben towards the alpha so far? 50 pounds, perhaps?

Ben probably has close to 200 pounds of fat on his body, why doesn't he just cut some off. Ohhhh, you mean British Pounds. Oh my.

How much is that in Euros, anyway?

No jokes in the Elite threads. All right, if there's an Elite II: Frontier thread on this forum you can make all the jokes you want in it.

See? I KNOW you thought this was funny, and was going to gain you magical forum points.

It was just sad and pathetic, and made it more difficult for people to be comfortable having a conversation with you.

Paul, if you want to be funny in the Elite II: Frontier thread you'd better start playing some Frontier and I don't see you doing that. What I do see is people getting greeked in the other thread.

I see what Retro means. Tdarcos's terrible attempts at jokes destroy threads. I won't let threads get destroyed any more.
