Just realized something.
The HMRC was before the rebellion essentially the ASOIAF Night's Watch IN SPAAAACE.

So who among us is Jon Snow? We need to know so we can kill him.

Nah; Jim could just graduate from spine-breaking to spine-ripping.

HMR stands for Hazardous Materials Requisition, not Horrible Massive Ruination, though I can understand how one could get confused.
God help us if we have to agree on pizza toppings at some point. There will be no survivors.

Yep. I'm rather bored right now, so my post coherency is decreasing.
I know, though. Noble family, complicated relationship with women, sense of honor of some sort...

If there's another player willing to duel with me, great. Otherwise, Nyars will do, though I have no clue what he is.

Unless another player specifically joins your VR session, anything you fight in VR is computer-generated. You can literally fight anything you want.

Ah, that. Everybody keeps saying that thing is great and quoting it and stuff but I still haven't read it. I guess I have to borrow the books and read them when I have some time. Or maybe just download the series and watch that.

@Radio Controlled: Tip: You can use the teletype BB Code when you're drawing in ASCII. This disables kerning and makes all characters equally spaced, so that a space character is the same size as a letter.
It helps if you're using Notepad++ or some other application to edit and ensures that the images stays the same size if someone is using a not-default font for their browser or if they're viewing it from their phone.
Example:
Code: [Select]
Hello World!
           !
Hello World!
           !
Code: [Select]
[tt]
Hello World!
           ![/tt]

Hello World!
           !


As you can see, the code BB Code automatically applies teletype to its content. It also keeps the text in the same line you put it in regardless of screen size, making it even better for the job if you aren't using colours (since all BB Code inside the code tag is ignored.).
So this:
AAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAA AAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAA AAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAARGH!
becomes this:
Code: [Select]
AAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAA AAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAA AAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA AAAAAAAAAAAARGH!which is again very useful if you're viewing this from a device with a small screen. (If you're viewing this in some sort of freakishly huge screen, just make the browser window smaller and my point should become apparent.)

Someone should make some sort of forum quirks and tips page and sticky it somewhere so I can dump all this useless info I've got on my brain about the Bay12forums usage. Because some of this may be useless or useful in very limited situations, but some things like the fact that you can't unlock polls are things people should know.

OH SNIP.

Thanks for the explanation. I knew some of this, but not all. Honestly though, I mostly just forget to use it. Still, nice of you to explain it.

I know of a John Galt, but probably not who you're thinking of to be honest.

If he is present, he must be slain before the speech begins, or we will all surely die.

Sounds like a job for the ARMquisition!

Thanks, just trying to help. If I ever start sounding like a know-it-all jerk, just tell me to stop.

I wonder when the UWM commanders realised that it's a trap and what exactly they reported with their FTL comms.

I'm pretty sure Radio knows that I'm still active in ER, but just in case:  Steve Saint wants those bonus tokens!  His first mission was defense of hephaestus, and he got killed by our own cannons in both phases.  >.>
