You should use a space before a "?" !

Quote from: "Wikipedia"
Some people place a space between the end of their sentence and the question mark. This usage is thought to stem from the French language. In French a space is always placed before question marks, exclamation marks, as well as colons and semicolons (See Ponctuation at French Wikipedia). In English, however, the insertion of this extra blank space is generally considered bad form. The Oxford English Dictionary specifies that no space should precede the question mark. Some English language books may appear to have these spaces. However, on closer inspection they are not full spaces, tending instead to be half to three-quarters the width of a space. These are not considered spaces; instead, this is simply a form of kerning used to make the text less cramped and thus easier to read.


Check http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Question_mark for more info.

Exactly, a single space is much closer to 0.5-0.75 space than no space at all :D

See the bit that betrays the amount of thought he put into his post is the "manned turrets" bit. Turrets are 100% accurate hitscan buildings. You think a human can do better?

I especialy like when people say a Defense Comp is good idea at stage 2 because it makes the turrets better, more accurate. How can you be more accurate than 100% accuracy anyway ? Not counting the times the turrets wrongly hit you or a building when tracking an alien of course ;)

yes, actaully. turrets take time to turn to face their target. a good dretch can own a turret on its own quite easily.

Beat me to it, Gareth. Though, a good dretch can own a human on its own quite easily as well.

And when a human is controling the turret, it'll take time to turn too so there won't be any advantage would it?

A stage four would be quite nice.

Not an accessable stage four, but as if someone types /set g_[TEAM]stage 3 into the server console, that team gets to s4, it'd be nice if it did something.

So when you're pissing about, you CAN have flying dretches, bee spitting tyrants, exploding grangers, holy hand grenades and kitten cannons.
:D
