Title: Gamers get engaged...
Description: with the help of Animal Crossing.

In the game, Adam traveled to Sarah's town to write and deliver the letter. GameCube controller in hand, he typed: "I love you Sarah Dane Buck. Will you marry me?" He then shot back to his own town to save. On Valentine's Day, Adam told Sarah to boot up Animal Crossing so they could see the game's special Valentine's celebrations. Upon opening her mail, Sarah saw the letter and swiftly opened it. Would Adam's plan work? Or would Sarah call him a geek and punch him in the nuts? It worked all right. According to Adam, Sarah hastily accepted the unique proposal. The couple is now well underway to tying the knot, stepping on a glass or what have you. They plan to marry either this summer or next spring/ winter.
Full Story And people thought getting engaged through the internet was weird?

Well remember US does have Resident Evil 4 available. In the article it says he played it for 5 hours straight.

He signed the letter as Nadam. Put that shit up to the mirror and what do you see? MADAN. Add an M before "AN", and you've got MADMAN. I think we all know what this means: He's a psycho, who's non-crazy side was sending a clue to this woman. Warning her that he's a MADMAN. Looks as if she's completely oblivious to the whole thing, though...
markymark - February 24, 2005 02:39 AM (GMT)
you could be on to something, mate.
Fyuusii - February 24, 2005 04:58 AM (GMT)
IT'S A CONSPIRACY! <_<
Well, it certainly would explain a lot. :P

Or... take away the N and replace it with an M. What do you get?
There's something about Adam

I reckon that guy looks a bit like Juan Pablo Montoya on a bad day. F1 fans, back me up! Or call me retarded, it's all the same to me.

Buffoon mate, I think it is time you got your eyes checked. :P
Buffoon - February 28, 2005 01:10 AM (GMT)
Bah! The eyes, at least, are quite similar. I'm not saying he looks exactly like Montoya, but I maintain there is a resemblance.
NismoR34 - February 28, 2005 03:39 PM (GMT)
I repeat, I think it is time you got your eyes checked. :P
Buffoon - March 1, 2005 08:11 AM (GMT)
Bah, I repeat! Not that I can actually make out what you've posted there, my monitor has some sort of strange problem that makes it look all pale and blurry, just like the inside of a cataract.
