Title: Trip to Worms
Post by: Waffle on April 22, 2014, 04:26 PM

Hey guys, I just drove my way down to Worms (Germany)

just to play some Worms Forts with my Worms at the Forts of Worms.

But after walking a little around in Worms, I found this

Yes, you see right, a Worms brewery.  :D
Their mascot is not a Worm, but close enough!

Nice Waffle :)

This city is very important, I remember when I have read it in the history books. I always wondered if his name had nothing to do with worms but I guess not considering that "worms" in german can't be translated.

Yeah, the word "worms" has no meaning in the german language.
It's one of the oldest cities of germany. The name changed many times very slightly in the past 2.000+ years. From "Bormetomagus" finally into "Worms"

English "Worm" = German "Wurm".
German "Worm" = no meaning.
Don't know anything about dragons in this content, but might be :D

The plush worms were advertised on the Facebook page of Team17 some years back.
They are sold on the shop "GameOnStuff" on facebook. But now there are many other pages where you can buy them.
Link to GameOnStuff: https://www.facebook.com/GameOnStuff
There are 3 sizes: keychain, medium, large.
Here's an image of Andy Davidson with the large one for scale xD

They aren't the best quality, though..

Ropa is probably referring to a Lindwurm.
