There should be a contest for this!
Is this an invitation for terribly photoshopped posters?
I sure hope so.

Welp, I figured out Goldsmith's law. It was surprisingly annoying to find, since googling those terms got me an assload of lawyers. Just ... just a crap ton of them. Like all of them. All the lawyers. All crap ton of them.

Yeah, that's all I could get: lawyers.  So I just assumed it was something about the ER-verse.  What is it?

Edit: nevermind, found it eventually.  "Silence is consent."

the trick for me was to google "goldsmith's law" just like that. Still got lawyers, but second hit was some guy's book full of these kind of sayings.

Funnily enough, Milno once said something along those lines before. A similar phrase was tossed around a lot in my house afters lines of questioning like "Who ate the last cookie?" were met with "I asked if you were going to eat it while you were watching TV and you didn't answer. He who keeps silent consents."

"Hey steve." You speak into the air.
>Yes?
"Could you guys also make a hamburger out of this arm when they cut it off? I wanted to eat it just for the sake of tasting it."
>That is horrible and disgusting. It will no doubt set you apart and create fear in your team mates. So of course.

We have a test chamber for a reason, guys. At least they didn't do this in the briefing room... Edit: The wreck room once again earns its name.
If you want to see the glass half-full however, this may open up some spots for the upcoming mission.

I don't think everyone actually needs to declare where they are, guys. You just need to tell piecewise if you happen to be (or potentially happen to be in my case) in the rec room.

Looks like they're making a Forever War movie: http://m.imdb.com/title/tt1307468/
"An elite task force returns home after a brief interstellar military operation, but discovers that 20 years have passed and the planet they once knew is completely different. "

But thats not the story of Forever war!

OK.

You all have till the 31st to submit an entry of what an ER movie poster would look like. Multiple entries from one person are accepted as well. Winner will get a lovely prize I haven't thought up yet. Judging will be done by player poll.

Can't watch the video because my nets are shit. But, that was at least the very beginning of the book... sorta. They also knew that was going to happen when they signed up for it. The book was alright. Didn't read any of the sequels. Anyone know if they are any good, or if they are even related to the first, in the sense of them fighting?

I have a horrible feeling this is somehow related to that injection...

Wait, why were we in the Rec room and not the test chamber?

Of course, Twin is neither man nor woman but an unholy eldritch abomination like every other Bay12er. The difference is they hide it better.

Because the sparring ring is located in the wreck room.

Milno's still in the briefing room but since pw's asking who's in the rec room I guess I don't need to have that posted.

*Nikitian is suddenly reminded of yellow-colored sparring lines from before.*


Anyway, I've been reminded that it's probably a pill from FRIABLE WISH mixed up with those which will be causing the weird shit. With the effect, I guess, ranging from a nice demonstration a-la Star-Eater painting to spontaneously going all Xan-monster and sprouting flesh-growths outwards to grab and consume and do space magic and, ultimately, Grow Bigger.

I'm really, really hoping Zayne can run fast enough from this.
