Online Game Player Crucified for Cheating
Now this is harsh: a player in the online game Roma Victor has been crucified for cheating. The player was apparently repeatedly ganking (which means killing new players who didn't stand a chance against him), so the people who run the game decided that (seeing as it is set in ancient Britain under the Romans) 7 days of crucifixion would be an appropriate punishment. But unlike most victims of crucifixion, he'll be back up and playing once the 7 days are up.
As a side note, a game where you play a slave in Roman Britain doesn't sound like a huge amount of fun. All of those whippings, beatings and being crushed under the Roman heel are probably even more depressing than farming in World of Warcraft.
