What are some of the funniest e-mails/messages/death-threats you've received?

It would be amazing as the location of a follow up to AC3 (ala Brotherhood or Revelations):

  • Because the time period is the same you could keep all the mechanics and weapons.

  • Cameo's possible

  • Story links possible

  • Paris is perfect for an AC game! Landmarks and character in spades!

  • All those crowds and mobs! Perfect for stealth!

  • So much violence and scheming that an assassin would fight right in

  • So many great characters

  • So many dramatic events which the assassin could look on to and be involved with (the September Massacres, the Champs de Mars massacre, the storming of the Bastille, the October Days, all the other journees)

  • So much factional and personal conflict in politics for the assassin to take part in

  • Imagine the mission where you travel to Versailles and explore the palace!

  • There's a whole war going on in parallel, which the assassin could no doubt partake in

  • There's the definite possibility the game could continue on into Napoleon's reign and follow his war on Europe, which was just as great and amazing a period in history, and which would give you an excuse to jump to all sorts of places and countries

  • I can't think of ANY game set primarily in France, nevermind during the French Revolution

  • Let's face it, some higherups in Ubisoft who actually like the games would be well pleased with a Paris/France-set game... no?

It's so inarguably perfect that I will refuse to buy any more AC games if they aren't set during the Revolution.

What's your take on the power of the presidency?

From a British perspective, I've always been struck by the absolute powerlessness of the office (versus the British prime minister). And it seems to be increasingly problematic; the awful gridlock of the present being the evidence.

Do you feel like the office should have been strengthened by the Founding Fathers? Do you feel most of the presidents you have observed have achieved much?
