As far as I'm concerned, the kid should be sent to life without parole simply because it was over Halo 3. Any other game would merit his current sentence, but Halo 3?.

Of course, if he killed someone to play Descent, he would get a $5,000 bonus :wink:

If he speaks out now and it actually wasn't rigged, then we'd be back into a total mess with everyone in Iran. If he speaks with fraud being confirmed, he would be a hero. ...and in my opinion, i...
