I had an issue on my Space Corps alt where a virus was running rampant on the nation's computer systems, and one of the options was to launch, basically, Skynet - an AI patrol that secured and destroyed it. Being a network of space stations, I chose it for the lols. I got "the AI runs rampant through Samozniy Space Corps computer systems" or something like that.


That was probably the one I got.

But there are no spiders in that one. :p

So, who else still thinks of the WA as the UN and has to explain to the noobs what you're talking about when you mention it?

I joined Ferbeuary 2007 so about four and a half years on NSG. I was pretty much On hates though for a good while, so actively posting maybe 3 years in stead of 4.5.
Been a member since 2007, should have 2000+ posts.(Actually, maybe more)

98% of all Internet users would cry if Facebook broke down. If you are part of that 2% who simply would sit back and laugh, copy and paste this into your sig.
