    When my brother’s grade 9 teacher told our mum that he just wasn’t very good at research, she was like, “uhh, he just spent 3 weeks doing research on the wild West to run a game of deadlands for a bunch of people in their twenties and thirties, I don’t think research is the problem”

      “Research really hard and you’ll get an arbitrary higher number on a paper so your parents don’t yell at you.”

      “Research really hard and you’ll get to bring history to life for your friends, and even throw in some werewolves for good fun.”

      Gee I sure know which one would motivate me too! LOL

      Also, yeehaw, Deadlands!
