Decode this secret message and you may win big bucks:

This month's walk-about is being hosted by a most happenin' muchacha, Bonnie,
who is working on the way aggro BMX game that most of you have probably checked
out before.  Make sure you plan a session in her lab this Friday between 3:30
and 5:30, have some fast fun and tell Bonnie what you think the game should be
called.

While playtesting the game, the kids at the focus thrashed the scoot, some even 
bailed, but Jacques the Ripper (that rightous dude) has made the ride fresh and 
buffed again.  So spec it out!  Dial in on a name for this game and get some 
fest money.  And don't bogue!  Wear your street garb and grind the game while 
you're in the lab.  Try some way aggro moves.  Lampin' the box is encouraged, 
so get clockin'!!!

(boom, boom!)

                H-h-h-hey, delbert; don't be lame.  
                Y-y-y-you gotta name the game!
(boom!)

                Put on your helmet,
                Don't get tweaked!    (boom!)
                                      
                It's aggro, gnarly
                You'll get freaked!

                           F-f-f-freaked, freaked, f-f-f-freaked!

(b-b-b-boom, boom...boom, boom!)

So, don your skid lid and take a ride.  Go vert.  Intense!  'Core to the bone!
Come catch some hospital air in the lab where it's safe.  Thank Bonnie for the 
radical grub, tell her what you think of the game and give her some ideas for 
a name.


The creative heads will decide on which names to submit for legal approval.
The weak ideas will be shelved and hot ones will be rewarded handsomely.
