      I'm expecting it to be a riot!!

       

  5. I want to start the campaign for the return of real status updates - TCFTRORSU

      I think you need a snappier acronym.  I suggest CAMRaSU - CAMpaign for the return of ReAStatus Updates. (And with no connection whatsoever to CAMRA :D)

      After this evenings omnishambles, I think I'd prefer the engaging air of unreality that characterises the current status updates!

      A friend of mine wanted to start a Campaign for the Revival of Archiac Phrases, but couldn't think of a suitable acronym.

  6. IMHO the 2 line Status Update limit is killing Status Updates. For example 2 lines, or 95 characters...

     

    ...Made you look, made you stare, made you eat your underwear!

  8. Sir, are we going FTL YET? Can you see around corners? Eye Sir. Can you see the back of your own head Yet?!

  9. Engage FTL. Sir? Will engineering need the hammer for the starter motor again? Yes, send it down.
