All I can see is a man in a business suit with a yellow exclamation point over his head.


Honorable William B. Chandler III totally pwned some fools in his decision for the Wayne County Employees' Retirement System case seeking an injunction in the Activision-Blizzard merger.

I would almost consider being judged by this guy the be a privilege. If he told me that the hit-and-run I performed back in January was akin to one ganking some n00b in the Badlands, I'd totally accept his judgment. No questions asked. Actually, I'd probably ask him what server he'd rolled his 'toon on and whether he was Horde or Alliance.

In some ways, perhaps, the world of Mergers and Acquisitions is a massively multiplayer role playing game as well. Like in World of Warcraft and other games, the participants in the M&A field take on certain roles, interact in their own community, hone specialized skills, and even develop a unique, somewhat curious vernacular. One particular quest in the world of M&A is disclosure litigation. In the instance of disclosure litigation presently pending before this Court, the world of M&A meets the World of Warcraft.

[...]Because the plaintiff could not establish the materiality of its final three disclosure claims, the motion for a preliminary injunction is denied. The July 8, 2008 meeting may proceed. GAME OVER.
