Metatonement

If anyone was looking to act out a splendid illustration of the gospel that would be relevant for contemporary gamers, make your way to China with your crimson extract stat! Taken from this article:

An online game operator has demanded that banned players donate blood to be allowed back into the game. Moliyo, which runs a 3D massively multiplayer online game in China, made the demand after banning 120,000 players who attempted to hack the game, according to gaming news website, 17173.com.

More than 100 players had already signed up to exchange half a litre (1 pint) of blood for game accounts, 17173 reported (in Chinese). The company has also offered free accounts to ordinary players who give blood, the website claimed…

Moliyo arranged the event in an attempt to “create a civilized society, and enhance online gamers’ appreciation of social responsibility and public welfare,” according to 17173.com.

Granted, you would only be able to save a few characters over the course of a week, pushing the limits of your body. But I reckon’ that is enough to score a few disciples.
