TOP TEN REASONS YOU SHOULD RTFM

by Jezz

You know how it is when you've had a nice long break from work and then suddenly have to get back in the routine again? Well that's how it was with the Top Ten this week. Try as I might I just couldn't come up with a good idea, so I put my faith in my fellow Fedders and threw the question onto open Comms.

A few minutes later, with my faith thoroughly shattered and several unprintable name suggestions for Riley's prospective planet, I was relieved that Andrew came up with an idea that could actually be used for a top ten.

Here are the Top Ten Reasons You Should Read the F... Manual!

10. Because Jezz can't answer EVERY Fed question in TBs.
9. To find all the typos and send them to feedback.
8. Someone has to answer Meteu's questions.
7. Because it is a labour of love by Hazed and she would appreciate knowing that someone has taken the time to peruse her work just once.
6. Because if you knew what was in store for you at later ranks, you would appreciate being a Captain a whole lot more.
5. So you will have something to do while trying to earn enough Trader Credits to promote.
4. So you can look smart by answering other people's questions on comms.
3. So you will know when Oddball finally gets an answer wrong (stranger things have happened).
2. RTFM... laundry... RTFM... laundry... you choose.
and the number one reason you should RTFM is...
1. So you can read the rules and understand why you can't explain on comms what you thought RTFM stood for!


Many thanks to Andrew, Arthurfrayn, Fletcher, Jewells, Meteu and Zardoz for all their ideas... well not all of them exactly... you know what I mean.
