I've heard lots of people grumbling about the online game Evony's rather suspicious adverts, in which scantily clad women encourage you to "Play Now, my Lord".

I've not yet heard anyone making my complaint, which is that the bloody ubiquitous things leave me nearly every day singing to myself.

"Evony and Ibory, live together in perfect harmony..."

The last thing I near is an earworm with a speech impediment :(

You just had to share it, didn't you?

AdBlock+ FTW. Or at least, for the lack of Evony adverts.

(Or, if you're inclined, replacing all adverts with Evony's lingerie models)

I thought I'd heard that name before- by all accounts it's not so much an online game as an online cash and quite possibly data harvesting operation, see here for details.
Anything that advertises itself with 'play discretely at work' makes me giggle too, it's almost a shame no-one here is dumb enough to try it and I won't get to see the look on their face when they realise we're about to lart them into next week.

Come the revolution, the makers of Evony will be up against the south facing wall, next to the estate agent.

ARGH I did that too! So annoying!
I thought I'd got around the issue by NOT PLAYING ANYMORE, but clearly I hadn't seen you coming :-P
