"my stomach burned with the heat of a thousand infernos. The Big Mac..."
give me a ***** break. He's acting like he broke into Fort Knox, like he cleaned out the entire GDP of Switzerland, but he just got a bunch of fake money in a game nobody plays. No digg - duxor, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Gold? Gold?! ISK my dear fellow, this isn't Everquest we're talking about here. Honestly, some peopele. ;-)

- newbietheatre, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Haha, that took me forever to read but it was definitely worth it. Some really nice writing there, I love the way it was ended. Great read.
- carguy84, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Won't be bored reading this tale??? I was bored halfway thru the title...
- magicdan, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I think this a wicked account lmao
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Cant see this on the front page anymore
- 1337geek, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0bought and paid for my laptop and a few extras with my last mmorpg. all too easy.
- cheese06, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0old but still good. just wanted to put it out there so people that have never read it do.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Thanks, I've been looking for this ever since it was posted to SA.
- antisthenex, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Old :(
- doddilus, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I thought Star Wars Galaxies was...
- samfrench, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I read a ton of it...got bored.
- digman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0STILL MASTERZORA, NO DIGG
- Elxx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Wow. Just wow.
Great story, very interesting ending. That was brilliant. - Shen, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Too long, didn't read
- mikeazorin, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Long, but worth it.
- froGGer, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0The Guiding Hand Social Club story *is* better. But the Great Scam is a masterful piece of writing...
- digman, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0OLD DIGG, NO DIGG FOR YOU
- antispammer, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0groverallnight: Actually this is the "old news" poster child.
- Mark_H, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0That Thoggins douchebag deserved it, but I feel bad for Hardhead. He should have gotten the 300 mil, IMO.
- Fuzzo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I read the whole thing.. Kinda sad =
- thewoz, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I stopped reading after he equated greed and corruption to capitalism.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0DIGG man!!!
awesome story... - aerialonyx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Very long, not very subtle, but still, it was a brilliant story.
- motorbikematt, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I cannot believe I just wasted my time reading that.
Funny as hell though! Digg for the laugh! - nesdude, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Wow. I'm impressed. What an epic tale... I certainly hope that it's true. Because that's funny and sad at the same time. It's great that he set out to do what he did, but on the other hand, he doesn't even feel guilty. I guess it's just a game, and no more than that, eh?
- Moose_Head, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Read the whole thing, too bad I never tried this game out 3 years ago when it came out. Sounds like a great game except for the boredom.
- baltakatei, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I can imagine a student having to read this in a high school english class 50 years from now. It is a bit crude, but it feels like the first of its kind in its dealing with MMORPGs. Interesting.
- sparkey182, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Jesus christ, i really want to play a mmorpg, since my computer is ***** im REALLY REALLY hopeing they realise one for 360, i dont even care what its about i just want one soo bad im gonna cry!
- illegalamigo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0I thought the writing sucked. His metaphors were either too exaggerated or too boring.
- vlsi0n, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0i cant believe the ending - lol good read
- PrimoTurbo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Good read
- SirBriggs, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Poor HardHead...oh well.
- Clazor, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Funny ass story. Digg.
- Gotar, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Wow nice STORY. Doubt it ever happened. If it was true it is pathetic, all that crap for FAKE money.
- KBiscuit, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Long but good.
- PhairOh, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0longest... read... ever... but so good
- andrewcool, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Good Story!
Best Story i say - AuAndCs, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0the best part is the last three or four lines.
- da_bradler, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0lol good story I doubt he gave the money away though. man it was a long read:| lol good though DIGG++
- Qopax, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0it was proven to be fake quite a while ago
- Sc0urg3, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0yeah... i dont think he should of done that to hardhat he thought the guy was his freind.....
i thought he gave the money away couse he came to terms with what he had done and then the game ment nothign to him. - thebigdurian, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Good story...
- antifuse, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Laaaaaame.
- groverallnight, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0This story is the "ok this is lame" poster child.
- masterzora, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0@cheese:
"old but still good. just wanted to put it out there so people that have never read it do."
Do you know the definition of news? "new information about specific and timely events". Now, tell me how this is news?
I don't care who has and hasn't seen it. I don't care if you are the only person in the world who has seen it. There is no need to share on Digg everything you see on the Internet. Digg's purpose is technology news, so stick to technology news.

@everybody who says "no digg":
Okay, people. "no digg" is only good for stories that don't interest you. If the story has a problem such as being older than the hills and twice as dusty, there's a handy pull-down menu labeled "problems?" that you should use to report the story and get rid of it. Without use of this menu, Digg will be even more crap-filled.
