FoG & Rabbit Keeping

Post by madaxeman »

Here's some evidence that seems to show that Amazon thinks there are a large number of rabbit keeping wargamers out there.

And I thought I was the only one! :oops:

Hands up who else plays FoG and keeps rabbits ?

Hands down for me. I suspect that it might be the Bennett wargames family purchasing the family book at the same time. Or it might be a Nasby reference.

Either way, why does your poll think that both you and I live in Sarfend? While I would be happy to still be thought of as a proper person, I don't think that I have ever accessed the internet from Southend.

Another poll missing the right answer.

I play FoG and eat rabbits. They're tasty.

Yes but you are a Northerner and as such your opinions don't count :)

I once visited London though. The streets were paved with Bud and Corona. Or at least the recycled waste products of it.

It might be me.

Wait until you get my beekeeping stuff too.

I have been looking at all self sufficient stuff for my total move to France.

An army needs feeding.

Currently nearly 1 in 6 wargamers owns rabbits, if polls are to be believed.

Maybe they are confusing this with RBS's habit of collecting Playboy Bunnies ?

Perhaps this is what they mean by FoG (R)

Gulf South looks like the top Rabbit-keeping FoG area in the US so far

Given the number of my Swiss that died at Roll Call, the bodycount will certainly ensure that FoGR is 18 rated at best, to say nothing of the language when I finally managed to contact something and bounced!

Threw my two cents in, sadly I don't own a rabbit. I don't think that my cat would welcome a rabbit with open arms, or maybe she would and the results would be far from good. Although she used to live with a Guinea Pig and has helped me pet sit fish and a hedgehog, and got along fine with them. Her and the G. Pig used to really get along, they would eat Timothy Hay together (which my cat still loves, I tried it, its way too tough and very bland) and when a second cat was brought into the house hold my cat chose team G. Pig.

Take that Twilight and your watered down tales of forbidden mopey love.

Now that I think about it, my ex-patriot friend in Japan plays FoG and had a pet rabbit named Harold when we were kids. Maybe there is a correlation to this.

I've just got the email in question from amazon. Spookily though I play FOG and share the house with Rabbits. There are also 2 cats and a Degu and the kids.

Though they can be a bit damaging to the house, they are fab to have around........the rabbits that is but I suppose that goes for the kids too.

I hope you voted....

(The rabbit book looks like its a bit "keep them to eat" rather than "keep as pets". Not nice...)
