My esteemed colleague, the Editor for BFG, found this on a BFG forum:

I take you guys are not going to let them get away with this.

[Warning: Stupid!]

And what exactly is BFG?

[/stupid]

Or is it justified for normal people not to know about it?

It doesn't surprise me that they are taking this poll seriously.

It's obviously a messed up representation of fandom and doesn't show the truth. So it must be gold to the GW marketing dept.

I can't join. I have tried everytime I get a new email account and for some reason every single time something F's it up. This last time I signed up and never got my confirmation email.

yer took me about 5 attempts to sign up pissed me off a bit

Well now when i try it says that someone has already signed up under that email address/name/user name etc. But if I try to login it says incorrect password.

Typical GW bullshit. This is the reason i don't deal directly with them anymore. If they actually pulled their heads out of their asses they would probably go blind.

I have to say the GW website is definetly not in my top 100 sites.

They really need to get it sorted out.
