Your attempt to derail my victory thread will not be successful.

That was just a failure of the translation technology in your pod.

Not a typo at all.

Your pod needs a service. A new clone should also solve the problem and I'm more than happy to help you out for a fee.

Hey now, it's not my fault that you referenced a blood classification rather than a typographical error. P

Type-O means a lot of things. In this context the meaning is obvious.

But, it could also be a star.

Good point. A star type would be a much more reasonable meaning in this context. What other “O” types are there?

Also, is there a bug report category for the chronicles (since typos tend to show up in the bug section of patch notes)?

Good question. Rectifying this error should become priority number one, this is a bigger issue than supercarrier proliferation.

There is a forum/website category — that's probably as close as you can get. Also, it looks like they've really cleaned up the web-based bug reporting tool and removed all those umpteen multiples of every category for every language and every game. Neat.

Supercarrier proliferation isn't an issue.

Why do you think it is?

Came expecting a grammar teacher's take on Icelandic translations...





Leaving after reading what I only assume is a transcription from an anime adult movie.

Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

The only issue is that CCP nerfed supers. We need AoE doomsday, old Titan turret tracking, and pre-nerf supercarriers.
