You mean the Y 2K bug. And no we didn't hit it, it apparently has a -80 racial offense modifier.

OOOhhhh, is that what Fyron meant? I didn't get it either. Of course 2000 in binary isn't 10K anyway, it's 11111010000.

Well, except then you also need to use 1024 for k (2^10) at which point, y10k (binary) = y2048 (decimal) which still doesn't work....
