  1. I started listening to your podcasts in June of this year. I think you are doing a great job. I want to also thank you guys for the items I received for winning the contest back in July. They are awesome. I especially love the Sims t-shirt. Keep up the good work!!!

  2. I hope you guys saw the South Park episode “Freeium isn’t Free”, pretty much why I stopped playing all Facebook and Mobile IOS app games.

    As for the QofW, I started when Dan joined your Podcast and have enjoyed it thus far. Welcome to Devin and I look forward to more episodes from you three.
