- A 1337 hax0r huh? :)
In alt.hacker the method of getting a key or password by asking for it is called "social engineered" cracking. Kindof like the one running in the chat channels right now where the guy says you can find out your "standing in bnet" by simply whispering your login (and password) to him. Or the guy who says he can modify your account so that you have all godly items but he needs your CD key to do it
Im not saying anything you said is untrue. Im just commenting on the leet hax0r thing in the subject.

- 1) Cut just before Angel says 'Let's go to work' to a slow motion run of the gang towards the demons. (LOTR styleee innit!) lik0r, the intro title screen with Angel walking through an Alley, except it shows Angel and co chargings towards impossible forces. […]
14) Spike and Angel are trying to kill0r the middle huge demons but are doing sweet FA damage. Cue some Fatherly and Son dialogue between Spike, Angel and Connor. […]
16) Gunn is laying on the stairs and picks a few of the Grenades CONNOR left. CUE DRAMA music, and he walks up to the medium sized demons, and tells everyone to fu><0r off. "IT WAS A GOOD FIGHT, YEAH GUYS? RUN"
