    You know when you say a word so often it loses meaning?

    Epic has reached that level.

    Epic.

    Seriously though, welcome to bit-tech and be prepaed to have people like the OP rib you for certain things, even trivial things like your project log. I haven't read it yet but I will now. I also think this topic brings up an interesting point about the high standard that bit-tech members have seemingly come to expect from the modders in the project logs forum. Since joining, I have seen the quaity and standard of mods and scratch builds increase dramatically, and it can be very off-putting for new members and even old ones wishing to create a new log. I face this problem myself at the moment, as I have recently started a mod and log that I refuse to post until I am satisfied it has the "wow" factor that seems to be required to draw attention to a project here these days.

    :hehe: Seriously, I only use it in one of two ways - Sarcastically (ingame) to make a joke about something, or seriously (ingame) to describe something like a 4 or 5 player clutch, or an insane noscope. Never used it in real life as far as I can remember.

    I really do hate that word now, I blame it on Jeremy (Epic Power) Clarkson! :rolleyes:

    Why don't we start a new interwebz phrase?...

    How about super? I think using the word super would be just super!
    Or maybe we could turn it into super duper!
    How super duper would we all be then?
