I know it's really kind of stupid to be making such a big deal out of something so simple, but it was just something I wanted to point out.
You should put that in Collaboration

Wait...
I thought it was supposed to be a red X.

Yeah, I generated and suggested that picture along with the ASCII face in my old 079 topic on the old forum, here

It didn't get used in the game though, unfortunately.

I think the example is a bit too detailed for an old computer, but the idea is cool.

Yoo stupid?
it says his software has outgrown his hardware to the extent that the hardware should not be able to handle it...
therefore 079 can make this happen.

It may have outgrown its hardware more than it logically should have however, it still has limited memory.
So logically it would use an ASCII X as opposed to the more detailed one to save space.
