Now that the existence of your secret Moonbase has been disclosed you have to make a LRR video about it. Obviously.

What Moonbase?

But seriously was that in the actual opening cutscene?

I see you went with 11 times. Care to share the reasoning?

According to the wiki, that's the correct count, excluding the one we rescinded (for obvious reasons).

The actual numbers are all confused, but this is the 11th real real one.

Ok, that's basically what I thought, but I wanted to know what you guys thought. Now I can put that on the wiki.
edit: Also, thanks!

Wait, that's "Moonbase, mk.XI" then?

Crap, adding that aspect throws my estimates off for the 25th century - the Runners fleet's starbase in Star Trek Online is named "Moonbase, mk. LXIV" maybe more like "..., mk. XCIV" at this rate. ;)

Ha, until I read this thread, I was thinking maybe you guys had picked Spec Ops for this week because—out of sheer and hilarious coincidence—something at the development company was called LRR Moonbase, and I mean, you can't NOT call attention to that! It would mean you were failing at your very difficult making-fun-of-video-games job, and then the army guys would have one over on you.

NOW it makes more sense.

I find it funny that they include your account name as a special guest, cuz while my Steam name looks like a real first and last name, as soon as I saw that credit, I laughed thinking about how stupid that might look with some people's names.
