Wow... That was the WORST article I've ever seen. Really, it was! I mean, Claus? That's like Santa Claus or something...

Summer Baudelaire? That's just sloppy.
I'm surprised that no one has said that the article is like something from the Daily Punctilio, so let me say: The article is like something from the Daily Punctilio.

I found several mistakes: First of all, it states that "Every loving caretaker meets an unfortunate demise" first of all, Jerome and Hector didn't die, and all other caretakers (xept monty and josephine) where evil secondly: it says Count Olaf is their evil uncle, although he is either their fourth cousins, three times removed, or third cousin four times removed Klaus is mispelled as Claus and Sunny is first spelled correctly, then later mispelled as Summer It also says that Sunny "has a penchant for mischief" What mischief? Shes a noble person who likes cooking. I detect very little mischief in her actions This is a Very Faulty Detachment

What's sad is expecting IGN to have any journalistic standards. Their lack of even rudimentary research is legendary, and I seriously doubt they have a fact checker on staff.

Hmm. I missed the "Summer" thing. Make that three+ mistakes.

I meet people all the time who unfortunately have never heard of Lemony Snicket. The writer of this article is obviously one of them. Pity.

Well, we do know how they die, just the details we dont know, except Olaf took Mr. Baudelaire's brandy, and that it rained before he could burn the mansion.
