	Those two are quite possibly the first two people to singlehandly bring down a Planetarion alliance. You see, those words managed to de-rail [[F-Crew]] for the entirety of [[Round 7]]. Now, while [[Wakey]] is trying to convince you we get into dangerous situations, rescue [[Bazz]] and that [[Brows]] is the evil genius behind an elaborate plot to bring down the F-Crew HC, I’m going to tell you the truth. The sad truth. [[F-Crew]] doesn’t spend all round playing Planetarion, the entire alliance is geared to hunting down people with the name Simon Wakefield.

No, [[Wakey]] wasn’t drunk, he was guzzling cokes. Now, in a discussion regarding the aforementioned book and Dave Gorman’s search for other Dave Gormans, [[Wakey]] got a little too enthusiastic and decided to make a bet regarding his real name, Simon Wakefield, and his possible aliases. '~~“''You~~ know what, I bet there are more Simon Wakefields out there than Dave Gormans. ''”		Now, this started in a pub. With [[Wakey]], [[Bazz]], [[Mike]] and [[Pelleon]].
