Marching Powder is objectively the worst poster known. He also needs to learn how a keyboard works.

Look, can we stop kidding ourselves and just accept that Octopode is Ben Lesnick's deep cover alternate ID?

6 billion years of quantum entangled self replicating molecules in a planetary causality bubble-equation and all they can do manipulate material with two grabbers and walkers to create shiny and/or interesting distractions for each other, and/or to destroy and consume each other

Hope this helps the end result and doesn't cause it to error out

Much pain but still time?

Comparing percent complete to percent currently planned rough orders of magnitude and estimating specific release dates are significantly different tasks. The former ought inform the latter, but the latter isn't a prerequisite for a reasonable estimate of the former, particularly in an environment where plans and goals change often.

To quote an old adage "The first 90% of development takes 10% of the time, and the last 10% of development takes 90% of the time." They haven't even gotten the FIRST 10% yet.

Octopode you should have claimed to be in charge of F-35 procurement, it would have been more believable given how ok you are with CIGs scope creep and timely delivery of product.

Yeah I don't believe you. I have friends that work for the DIA. They aren't loving morons. I hope they yank your TS/SCI clearance so you get to loving flip burgers the rest of your life. I wouldn't be surprised if some goon decides to make your life miserable and 'leak' your shitposts to some bored investigators.

CIG should headhunt Octopode, he's like 3 employees in one. And they can use him for PR too, it's not like you'd notice the difference between him and their current PR team.

But what if he broke his arm or stubbed his toe? Think of the delays.

You're a bona-fide goddamn loving moron. Yes I'm actually insulting you now.

You just did one of the following:

- Posted that you manage JWICS level networks to support sensitive operations. This combined with other poo poo you've posted personally (such as upcoming medical costs) have now made you a spearfishing target. You've also violated several DoD guidelines on minimizing your online footprint.


- You're lying.



I honestly hope you're lying because you're not the only DoD employee here.

Get a mod to delete your post and all quotes.

I'll be looking into this tomorrow when I get into work.




Now, back to talking about a game that will never come out.

quote:

Capt. Samantha Carter's father, Jacob, enlists the SG-1 team in his hunt for the ancient Goa'uld system lord Seth, whom he believes is hiding on Earth. A computer search reveals that Seth has maintained power on Earth for thousands of years by hiding behind false religions. The SG-1 team traces him to a heavily armed compound in Washington state. Outside the compound, SG-1 clashes with a team of action-happy ATF (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms) agents led by the adversarial Special Agent James Hamner. They also meet Levinson, a frantic father who's desperate to rescue his son, Tom, from Seth's cult. Col. Jack O'Neill, Carter and Dr. Daniel Jackson break into the compound. Within minutes, however, they fall victim to the biological agent that Seth uses to brainwash his followers into doing his bidding.

"Roberts," said Man, "when will Star Citizen be released?"

Roberts said, "THERE IS AS YET INSUFFICIENT FUNDS FOR A MEANINGFUL ANSWER."

Man said, "Collect additional pledges."

Roberts said, 'I WILL DO SO. I HAVE BEEN DOING SO FOR A HUNDRED BILLION YEARS. MY PREDECESSORS AND I HAVE BEEN ASKED THIS QUESTION MANY TIMES. ALL THE FUNDS I HAVE REMAIN INSUFFICIENT."

"Will there come a time," said Man, "when the pledges will be sufficient or is the problem insoluble in all conceivable circumstances?"

Roberts said, "NO PROBLEM IS INSOLUBLE IN ALL CONCEIVABLE CIRCUMSTANCES."

Man said, "When will you have enough money to finish the game?"

Roberts said, "THERE IS AS YET INSUFFICIENT FUNDS FOR A MEANINGFUL ANSWER."

"Will you keep working on it?" asked Man.

Roberts said, "I WILL."

Man said, "We shall wait."
