Let's send letters to all the Michel Ancels.

(I'm not entirely joking...)

Not the first time. I simply do not overuse them.

I understand your point ("are you this Ancel? If not, sorry for your time"), but there is a problem - we just can't do it this way. If just 3-4 of these would tell police Droolie's P.O.Box/adress is a "spam nest", this would make serious problem for him.

I don't think someone would report such a letter to the police. Nor do I think the French police have nothing better to do than hunt down Drolpiraat and...do what to him exactly?

I just tried to contact Michel Ancel ( one of my oh-so-many tries )
Still, the question remains...what exactly are you going to say to him?

Nothing. It's like firing frozen peas at a combat tank. Even if the message does get through to him, he'd almost certainly ignore it. He probably gets hundreds of letters/emails concerning games, so one more wouldn't take on any effect, I'm sure.

Probably not, as his email and home address don't seem to be common knowledge.

I'd better select someone else. History of Sonic research says that when there are some exceptions, most of known designers want to do their reviews for money, and for the newspapers, and less known have their "secrecy". However, if someone LEFT videogaming industry and wasn't especially known, she/he is going to answer at least some of your questions.

Your email was kind of...blunt. It could have done with a bit more...awesomeness? No, that's not the word I'm searching for...but something like that...

And Shawn isn't really a girl.

Right. But after 6 years I think he deserves blunt. I like the rabbids but.....

And Shawn ISN'T a girl? Right...I'm now confused.

Maybe if you'd write like this :
J'ai comme la vague impression que vous allez ignorer cette e-mail... ? Quoiqu'il en soit, la plupart des fans à qui j'ai pu parler demande un vrai Rayman 4. Pas de Lapins Crétins. Rayman, le jeu de plate-forme qui a bercé notre enfance, le super héro sans bras (et sans chocolat), le Rayman mignon. (Mon opignon, partagé) S'il vous plait faites-le pour nous ! Merci
Dominica. X
By the way, Michel speak very good English!

Sanrio have an email service now? 0.0

Anyway I have a gut feeling that this isn't a working Ancel email address.
