Forty thousand.

...yikes. If that was brought into physical form, it would collapse under it's own gravitational pull and create a Blackhole, or a Singularity, or something.
I know there actually have been some posts that hit the limit. There was one in that magical girl game I believe. Or something similar.

What if we made a thread where every post had to hit the character limit? :P

Indeed, I do this.

I think the OP of Roll to Dodge Princess Celestia hit the limit.

Yeah, I did some calculation and realized that was wrong.

Still, it could be said that all humans are posts that exceed forty thousand letters.

Also I wonder if the 40k limit is unintentional or if it's a Warhammer 40k reference.

Either Perplexicon or Einsteinian Roulette's update posts routinely hit the character limit.

There are quite a few forum games that hit it. One of mine did, mostly due to rule complexity.

Demonhood managed to have one post hit the limit 3 times over, but it never got posted.

I think it was Perplexicon. I played in it and remember some multi-post updates.

Spearbreakers had the OP and a couple of other posts hit the character limit.

Edit: Wait, crap, I posted in the Sigtext thread. I told myself I would never do this. Damn.

Hard science is like a sword, and soft science is like fear. You can use both to equally powerful results, but even if your opponent disbelieve your stabs, they will still die.

Hah! Now you need to make a sig!

Edit: Also, I think that this may be the slowest-moving thread on the forum, obviously not counting the dead ones.

Well it's a thread that was never designed to be active, so it's kinda prone to slowness.

Oh look, I have a steam account.
Might as well chalk it up to Pathos.
As this point we might as well invoke interpretive dance and call it a day.

Exactly! Since this is intended to be a sig, you should obey the sig limit in every post. Thus, each post will have one quote and a link to your next sig post.

You're just not dedicated enough to the art of sigging.
