A knight's tour is a sequence of moves of a knight on a chessboard such that the knight visits every square only once. If the knight ends on a square that is one knight's move from the beginning square (so that it could tour the board again immediately, following the same path), the tour is closed, otherwise it is open. A knight's tour problem is the mathematical problem of finding a knight's tour. Creating a program to find a knight's tour is a common problem given to computer science students. Variations of the knight's tour problem involve chessboards of different sizes than the usual 8 × 8, as well as irregular (non-rectangular) board.
While Brandon was on vacation, he steadily began to master the game theory involving chess. But when he was introduced to the knights tour, he realized this new level of expertise had more involvement than anything he encountered before.

Great Muse song from 'Black Holes and Revelations'. Is the longest song on the album at 6:06 minutes long, with just instrumentals at first, with no lyrics until 2:06 minutes in. The meaning of the song is quite hard to determine, but the following is my interpretation of it.
Cydonia is a region of Mars where life was rumoured to have once existed. The knights are either the 4 horsemen of the apocolypse or just plain knights. Either way, they tell the people of Cydonia that "God falls asleep on the job", encouraging them to destroy God, saying "how can we win, when fools can be kings?". The people of Cydonia destroy God, under the influence of the knights. In the future of this 'story', in todays present, the cycle has gone full circle, with Governments now in control, but are asleep on the job. This theory is the culmination of my and my friends opinions, and has not just been taken off the internet, so may of course be totally wrong, but I think it ties in well with the political nature of the album.
Another loose theory is that it's linked with 'Sing for Absolution', from one of Muse's older albums, 'Absolution', watch the video to see why.

Get the Knight Rider mug.This is the elitist attitude World of Warcraft players get after playing the Death Knight class for too long.
This attitude comes primarily from the Death Knight's ability to cause massive amounts of damage with little player effort. Soon the player realizes that he causes far more damage than everyone else & eventually concludes that he is a better player. In reality Death Knights are just over-powered, and everyone knows it.

Death Knight Syndrome at its finest:
One night in a Heroic Naxx raid...
John (Death Knight): Hey, this warlock in blues is *only* doing 2400 dps, can you boot him from the raid or something?
Me (raid leader): He's here on time every week & pays attention. Plus he's a nice guy.
John: Seriously, this free-loader is draggin' us down, we might not get epix... please boot him.
Me: John its fine! stfu & relax, not every class can /faceroll to 4000 dps like you.
