...man, what the fuck?

For some reason I got the strange feeling that Matthew Chambers was a character out of your stories too, but I must just be thinking of Spoon and Chamber.

It is probably relevant that we know DWADers have read this blog a few times...

Gah! Why did they have to steal the artwork for a story they refused to read on the grounds they'd "already done Project Alpha"?! GAH!

(I've actually read the Devil story - the Doctor sits in a chair and wonders if there's a God. The Master turns up and says no. The end.)

And, not only that, they've ripped off the cover to Fear of the Dark by Trevor Baxtendale, which similarly features Davo's half skull visage!

But they'll claim they did it first because:

1) The books don't 'count' (and barely heard fan made audios that spent their first decade doing line by line rip-offs of Tom Baker stories and Sci-Fi/disaster movies do???)

2) They haven't seen it, therefore it doesn't exist

3) It would destroy thier world view to admit to it

To be fair, most people in the DWADs would be unable to contemplate a more nightmarish scenario.

LOL! Especially as all the evidence to the devine is Eric Saward being crap at explaining how the Master survived stuff...

But they have to know about the books to rip off the cover design. Or the very least Chris' cover!

Surely, the idea of the Doctor believing in a 'supreme being' is total bull. This is a man who has always strived to find a rational scientific explanation for everything.

Plus, don't forget the old idea of Science and Magic being indistinguishable from each other.

Plus... do I really have to mention the Fendahl and the Daemons?

Yes. In fairness to the author, that isn't COMPLETELY ignored. But it does feel like an existentialist essay using Doctor Who plots as evidence.

Best not, I don't want Nyder turning up and screaming about Schrodiger's Cat...

You should go onto their so-called "opinion forum" and complain! DESTROY ALL WEAKNESS!

(And I'm still very sorry)
