If I could edit it so it didn't have all that invisible space around it, and then make it a little bigger, yeah maybe. :3

Those are all the light infantry quotes in Tiberian Sun.

[Mr. Strange]

At least it's NOD infantry...
Peace Through Power!

Notice the purple shadow. That's just the default color of the beta sprite.



Just to prove it, that's a jump troopah^^, which is a GDI unit, yet it's red. :3

Suggesting NOD didn't capture GDI barracks and train their own jump troopers to fake GDI forces "accidentally" causing civilian casualties...

I felt like getting back into C&C so bad once I learned that Nod and GDI were suppose to be partial parodies of GI Joe, but I think I might have lost my copy of tiberium sun

[Lightningfalcon]

Is it bad that I can remember exactly how the light infantry say each of those quotes? 

[Descan]

Is that a blooper or does Kane actually dance like that in-game?

[Karkov]

Nah, I still remember most of the Warcraft 3 units quotes and how they say them.  Of course I spent about Way-Too-Many hours on that game, so I'm pretty sure those are ingrained in my head.

Hey, Bay12, I'm gonna try and get the list written out tonight, so what kind of arguments do you think need specific statistics? They don't just have to be logically valid ones, so stuff like Ad Hominem is going in the list, but basically what modes of "how to make a point" would you a) expect to be important and b) should feel different enough from other arguments that they merit their own rules. In general we've got Logical, Emotional, and Cosmetic arguments, where the former's about clearly proving a logical claim, the middle's about strongly establishing the validity of feelings, and the latter's about creatively manipulating opinions.

I ask because we do the whole arguing thing a lot so this is probably fertile ground for this sort of question

The Black Hand has arrived!
One mission, One purpose!
The Black Hand awaits...
We have orders...
Enemies of Kane!
Pursue them!
They stand in our way!
Clear a path!
They must die!
They cannot hide from the Black Hand!
Walls will not protect them!
They think they are safe in there...
Expel them!
Clear them out!
Eliminate them!
Kill them!
They Oppose Kane
Burn them alive!
Inside!
We're in control here!
We're not finished here!
Regroup!
We'll be back!

Semantic, which is petty attack on specific wording in argument instead of argument itself.

Oxytocin is one helluva drug.

I believe the list should focus rather on how to argue correctly. Bad arguments often go in lacking detail or context. Or the why's or how's the details in the argument go.
