Woohoo, official off-topic thread!

She got into a massive internets war over it. Her and her 'Fandalorians' (named after the Mandalorians, Traviss' pet SW culture) vs what she dubbed the 'Talifans.' Amusing name-choice there.

I'm just waiting for Star Wars to crawl into a hole and die to be honest.

Been reading a bit of Glasslands, as well as reviews for it.

I just hate how she steamrolls over continuity so much. She's a good writer as far as characterization and such, but she's too ****ing pretentious to do adaptation novels. She can't write a single book without vomiting her liberal arts hippie moral agenda all over it, which is fine, but don't do it when writing novels that are based off of military sci-fi like Halo or Gears of War or, in the case of Star Wars, clones. It's just irritating.

Weapons manufacturing is bad.

Ignore the fact that it is the only reason humanity in the Gears setting exist.

It's bad and needs to die dammit!

I can't find her rant about how the Jedi are evil, but I remember it being really hilarious.

Nvrmd, found it.

If the Clone Wars cartoon gets points for anything, it's for shitting all over her continuity and making her so butthurt that she quit Star Wars.

Shin's girlfriend is making him watch Fruits Basket.

What a loser.

Really, the TARDIS alone has the required power to beat it.

Two races who in their prime are not only time travellers but able to manipulate dimensional barriers and even use time stopping as defences. Yeah they'd probably beat any fictional army that's not like, Superman's race or stronger, and even then.... they were supposed to be pretty much unfathomably smart so who even knows. Unstoppable army of big.... pepper pots, ftw!

Such a fangirl, oh well...

So... what did I miss? =)

Sounds like she should write a 40K novel.

Wanna summarize it? I don't watch video reviews and I avoid anything Penny Arcade related on principle.

It's those Extra Credits dudes.

Man, a pity they've moved to such a shitty site.

"Well I suppose they could have killed you off and then said 'Okay, now make another character.' Terrible design idea but you gotta admit it would be pretty funny."
