I find it to be the most impressive statistic for VALIANT thus far. Any naysayer who wants to point out declining sales need only to look at that stat and quietly leave the room (or forum, as it were).

"Charty" from the Forbidden Planet thread and that stupid little comic strip, that was great. It got us so worked up we took our frustrations out on Steve Wacker (f'n idiot, doosh-bag) :twisted:

Wacker praised Valiant and I still gave him another scoop of abuse even after that :P

Ah the memories :high-five:
