Now it has to be asked.... when are WoW going to implement the /curry command?

Jimmeh · February 2005

Sub_zer0 · February 2005

Well actually it opens a browser to the pizza hut web page where you can order online, but since they have your credit card details and address anyway, the next obvious step is

/pizza; large, peperoni, xcheese

"Your pizza will be delivered within thirty minutes, enjoy your game!"

Also please note this is only available in America right now; the Everquest nerds over here will at least need to pick up the phone to order for a little while longer <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' />

DY357LX · February 2005

Domino's pizza for teh win!
Shame me nearest Domino's is 9 miles away, when me and a friend
of mine drove down there we had rush back rather sharpish because
the damn thing was going cold.
"OMG, drive faster, the double decadence is gonna die!"

Those pizza's are awesome.

Yes!!! And make that intravenous pizza while you're at it.

Nil_IQ · February 2005

I suppose the REAL question is:

Could someone churn out high level characters fast enough to be able to sell them on ebay, and live off pizza with the profit?

Thankfully the answer is probably "no".

im_lost · February 2005

I'm pretty sure there would be health problems from living off pizza (plus the soda that you can also probably get). So, even if someone has absolutely no life and tries it, they would probably drop dead in front of their computer anyway.

twoflow · February 2005

All that command does is open your web browser?

That's clearly rubbish.

CForrester · February 2005

You guys haven't had pizza until you've had a proper from made at the pizza place near here. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /> They use completely fresh ingredients, it's great. Costs about $26 for two extra-large (Sixteen inch) pizzas, and you get four free drinks.

I'd be much more impressed if they offered an in-game pizza ordering interface. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' />

I actually order my pizzas online, through Papa John's website. It has my saved orders and I don't have to speak to some guy trying to sell me extra drinks and the whole deal.

I was talking to a guy at my work who plays EQ2 about that today, he's the only person I know who plays EQ, but he lives in the boonies of New England so Pizza Hut doesn't even deliver to him, I laughed. Then we talked about video games and technology much to the annoyance of our coworkers.

This has been another useless story from me, AllUrHiveRBLong2Us.

/pizza xlarge sausage xcheese +cheezstix

Ratonetwothreetwoone · February 2005

/tissues

Caboose · February 2005

See, if it automatically placed the order in game, instead of launching a browser, that would kickass

That_Annoying_Kid · February 2005

^^

but it's still awesome

Condizzle · February 2005

We need an /answerdoor command to make robotic arms bring the pizza to us and pay them.

DOOManiac · February 2005

I don't know about you guys, but I sure could go for some /nachos

That_Annoying_Kid · February 2005

I could to doom, I could to

and the fact that I just had the chips that you would find in nachos with some salsa doesn't help.

Pizza Napoli
78 Centrale (corner Lafleur) in Ville Lasalle, Quebec, Canada.

According to their website.

Here's their <a href='http://69.70.17.18/napoli/English/Menu.htm' target='_blank'>menu</a>, but the prices have been raised a bit since then. $26 is for one extra-large all-dressed and a pepperoni, though it would be the same for two all-dressed. <img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' />
