This work would not have been possible without the love and support of my wife, Ildiko, and the skills and ideas granted to me by God. I supposed I'd better mention Nick Veitch, who taught me that journalism is as much of a game as we make it, as well as happily subjecting himself to regular thrashings at Crack Attack.
On that note, Daniel Nelson (the creator of Crack Attack) has many crimes to answer for: if only he knew how many hours I've lost playing that darn game...!
