View source for Talk:The Insult

Where is the "That is one ugly sucker" line mentioned? I've seen it before, but I can't find the source. &mdash; [[User:Svdb|SvdB]] 16:43, 14 March 2007 (CET)

:The only actual quote of the Insult that I could find is in the SC2 manual: "That’s the ugliest freak-face I’ve ever seen!” As far as I can tell, the actual insult doesn't appear in any of the other canon material nor the dialog. --[[User:Fyzixfighter|Fyzixfighter]] 20:43, 14 March 2007 (CET)

::Ok, that explains why I couldn't find it; I searched for "ugly" and "sucker". And indeed, the "freak-face" line sounds much more familiar. &mdash;

:::It just sounded familiar to me, and I was mostly paraphrasing it from what I remembered, so thanks for fixing it to what it should be.

::::"That is one ugly sucker" is the Insult according to the SC1 manual - at least that's what the Wikipedia article on [[wikipedia:VUX|VUX]] says. SC2 [[canon]] has a higher priority than SC1 canon in determining the Star Control canon, anyway, so we'll stick with "freak-face". [[User:Valaggar|Valaggar]] 13:42, 15 April 2007 (CEST)

Well, to be even more specific, it's from the Sega version of SC1 in the ''Vux Incursion'' [[Ur-Quan Slave War#Campaigns|campaign]]. It may also be listed in the Sega manual as such - but it's not in the PC manual. Does anyone know what the reference is for Rand saying "Very Ugly Xenoform" (maybe also from the Sega manual)? --[[User:Fyzixfighter|Fyzixfighter]] 16:37, 15 April 2007 (CEST)

:Very Ugly Xenoform I got right from the [[VUX]] page. When I see something that's been here a while, I just try to make the site consistent with itself.--[[User:Gaeamil|Gaeamil]] 03:29, 16 April 2007 (CEST)

::Ah, I see now. Thanks for the info, and thanks for taking the time to make the site self-consistent. --[[User:Fyzixfighter|Fyzixfighter]] 05:15, 16 April 2007 (CEST)

"Very Ugly Xenoform" comes from the DOS SC1 manual, right in the title: "RACE: VUX (Very Ugly Xenoform)". It doesn't claim this was the insult though. &mdash; [[User:Svdb|SvdB]] 16:21, 2 June 2007 (CEST)
