I wonder if we could get the ACLU on that if it ever hit us here in the states?

What if bodies just had random errors like computers do?
You go to receive your Starbucks coffee and accidentally punch the Barista in the face then Crap on the floor.
What kind of Fudgeing computer errors are you getting?

That's one of the reasons we shy away from cash tournaments, but it looks like they don't even care if you aren't playing for money.

I think here in 'Murica you'd have a hard time equating gaming to the gambling of slots. Even then, here you are only taxed on the winnings, and Casinos are only taxed on their income. It seems like Sweden has a tax on Gambling despite win, lose, or draw.
Eventually something cool will go in here. It's a matter of time.

Those swedes are just nuts.  Saw this at the bottom of the Lan Party Tax article.  Ticketing a car that has been destroyed and is undrivable takes some balls.
