If any of you remember the now-known-as "Red Shirt Guy" from Blizzcon who did some serious factchecking on the status of Falstad Wildhammer, you'll see him in-game soon enough as Blizzard gave him his own NPC. Props to him for paying such close attention to the lore, and props to Blizzard for their fanservice.
 

That was nice of them.

Everything about this is win, except the kid getting a bunch of flak.

Fact Checker... 
 
Fantastic.

That's pretty awesome.

I just heard about this yesterday from some guy on the elevator at work.  Pretty awesome.  I'm also glad that this guy didn't turn into a "ridicule the nerdy guy" internet meme, as said above.

Hah.

That is so awesome! Good for him!

Here's an additional vid of him which makes him eve nmore awesome in my eyes.   

Asperger's wins again! 
 
@melcene:  Fuck, I fell right into it didn't I.

I love how Blizzard rewards their players; having your own NPC in your favorite game is pretty awesome.  
 
It's cool he made his own to the point video about his voice. The internet teasing could have gone badly but it looks like he took it in stride.

That's really awesome of them to do that.

I didn't even think the way he talked was weird at all, I'm not even sure I would have gotten the words out.

That's awesome.

except for the fact that this is fake and was proven so awhile ago.
