More embarrassing then the Dev's fitting Smartbombs to their Supers for Live Events and getting Concorded?

No, especially not if you're beating yourselves in "good" ones Roll

Im just waiting until Galaxy Pig posts about how the Nyx is a pile of junk.

Now, more than ever, we need a dislike button.

What a truly unfunny article in the onion though. I mean this is just bad and crap and not funny AT ALL.

Yeah.... I've noticed it's hard for cynics to understand humour.

The station itself also looks like the Nyx, larger than the ones flying around like flies and going 'pew pew pew'. And the ticker at the bottom of the screen is pretty crazy in itself.

No way, not for satire. Can't sue for parodied use of copyright materials under the Fair Use Act.


Using one entities materials to parody another isn't protected. Penny Arcade and american greeting cards is an example of where legal action (just a cease and desist in PAs case) succeeded.

Only good thing really is that copyright isn't trademark, and its not lost if you are selective in enforcement, so CCP isn't forced to act (ie they can ignore uses of their material they like).

Fair Use Act permits the use of copyright material for parody and satire under certain circumstances. This would probably be one of those circumstances. But I don't see CCP having a problem with it at all.

First you'd have to catch them. Between the nano's and lasers you might get your butts kicked:) I think they're using a stacking OGB exploit.


Needs more engine trail.

Tech 2. And they have the BPO for it. It requires sulphur to build. Since onions naturally contain sulphur, they have a monopoly.

Space. The Final Frontier. These are the voyages of the nano Nyx. It's mission- to seek out and incarcerate prison guards because Mercury causes fish to die.

Wait.

Taxiride to the city - $20
Dinner and movie for two - $130
Ambulance ride to hospital - $4000 (because it's America and I'm sure it's expensive)

Ability to sue the ***** for the ambulance fee, even though she got severe food poisoning - priceless.

No way that happened. At least I dont remember it.
Now I think, is it a joke, or I missed something epic.

Won a G510 keyboard in AT-X on  21.07.2012. Still not delivered, CCP keeps quiet. Customer support needs a raise.
