The announcement trailer was met with a backlash from some fans of the series who criticized the game for a lack of historical accuracy and authenticity. Complaints were given to the use of certain weapons, prosthetics, and body art as being very uncommon in that time period.[10] Others responding to critiques of the historicity of women on the front line have pointed out female soldiers did participate in World War II, highlighting real-life examples, and that previous games in the Battlefield series are not seen as a completely realistic portrayal of war. Critiques then responded that they were angry due to the unrealistic portrayal of women in the game, as the overwhelming majority of soldiers in WW2 were male.

In the traditional game, one player is chosen to be the answerer. That person chooses a subject (object) but does not reveal this to the others. All other players are questioners. They each take turns asking a question which can be answered with a simple "Yes" or "No." In variants of the game, multiple state answers may be included such as the answer "Maybe." The answerer answers each question in turn. Sample questions could be: "Is it bigger than a breadbox?" or "Can I put it in my mouth?"

Laredo AM power vandal

Edits power levels used by AM radio stations in and around Laredo, Texas.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Long-term_abuse/Friends_vandal

quote:

Targeted areas, pages, themes
Articles related to the television show Friends, especially character articles, such as Rachel Green.

Habitual behavior
The vandal tends to change the relationship status of the characters as of the end of the series. In particular, the vandal pairs Rachel Green and Chandler Bing, removing any mention of Chandler's marriage to Monica Geller. As well, Ross Geller and Emily Waltham are paired. This is reflected in oddly-worded edit summaries referring to "Rachel Bing" or "Emily Geller". The specific wording of the edit summaries is a major tell.
