Dancing Avatars

Pete

We all know World of Warcraft (well, mostly. @Lucy it's an online game).

Some of us know they have dance commands.

Here's where they come from... alongside the characters.

EUGENE'S LAIR, PETE!

I know it, but then I know what Eugene's lair is. They did make a full episode of South Park out of it, so it must be pretty mainstream surely?

Liz

I've heard of it (only via reading about it though, not through actually playing it). And usually I don't understand anything in Eugene's Lair.

According to this (<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/World_of_Warcraft> there are 1.5m WoW players in Europe. Say the population of the EU is 500m, this 1/3 of 1%. It also suggests that there are likely to be no more than 400,000 UK users (at most) This gives it roughly the same audience as the most popular programmes on cBeebies. <http://www.barb.co.uk/viewingsummary/weekreports.cfm?report=weeklytop30&requesttimeout=500&flag=viewingsummary>; So it's as mainstream as Numberjacks, or 64 Zoo Lane.

I've heard of auto-erotic asphixiation, doesn't mean we're all at it. I've seen Numberjacks, but I've never even heard of 64 Zoo Lane, is it good?
