I too have had SC dreams.

Once I dreamed that I was meeting up with the Descent Underground guys at a hotel bar, and EP was bemoaning that his guys were getting poached by SC. So I came up with the idea that "Hey, we should fight them for the dudes", and then we agreed to a hockey game: Winner gets the dudes. I skated out and checked CR into the boards, and scored on Dan Tracey in net. I think Sandi was yelling at all of us from the bench.

Then I woke up.

ok bye

The one I didn't really catch before is the charge that "goons" wanted to take over CIG gameplay:

Gate camping was a term first used in mmos, I believe, in Ultima online but jump gate was the first space Sim with gate camping but was followed up in eve online.

Basically you wait at the other end of an instance, as someone is loading in you kill them before they gain control of their character while they are still on the loading screen.

The Buccaneer sale will either be a complete failure or a mediocre sale and will be spin doctored as having surpassed all expectations of Ben Lesnick, Developer of blindness and heart disease.
The sale total depends on how much money the meatball mafia still has to launder...

My prediction: Cutlass owners will melt their poo poo ships (and another $10 i guess) and swap the poo poo they know for the poo poo they don't. Sale will be the worst ever, since the ship doesn't come with vague promises of future mechanics but instead is intended for dogfighting, which is both already "in the game" and incredibly poo poo.

I dunno if they can get another great sale going at this point. It would depend on promising a ship with some new immersive mechanic that they can fool the shitizens into paying for, which shouldn't be possible but you know, Star Citizen and all that

That's actually a pretty good selling point for a pirate ship, but they've poisoned that well by now

Roberts. Is. A. Genius. I'm guessing 4D VR.

So that's why the game runs at 15fps all the time, it's constantly rendering 4 viewpoints so that when humans evolve another two eyes they can still experience the game in it's full fidelitous glory.

Meanwhile, the discussion on Reddit about said video is a mixture of:

Does it count as concealed carry if it's hidden in the folds of his armpit?
