COMPLEX BAR & GRILL ALWAYS OPEN
Many forums have bars where patrons can chill out after a hard day's posting, strategic planning and generally slaughtering one's enemies. The Complex Forum has long lacked a Bar, so here it is, finally open for business. Drop in for a drink. Meet your colleagues in a warm and friendly stress-free atmosphere, etc, etc, itd, jne.
We serve everything from PanGalacticGargleBlasters™©® to Plain chilled Oxygen Dihydride (with optional added flavourings if desired). And if we haven't got it we can get it.
—ID required for some drinks, lobotomy required after others—
NOTE: Please be sure to read the zero grav toilet instructions before using the facility.
AND Enjoy our zero gravity golf course (before dinner recommended)
No double parking. Double parked vehicles will be towed away.
No double posts. Double posts will be terminated.
No loitering. Loiterers will be executed.
Posts in languages other than English are welcome provided a translation in English is included.
Use good punctuation and good grammar please. And this is a nice bar with nice patrons, so lets be nice.
The management reserves the right to do lots of things, including refuse admission, removing loud patrons, dissolving quiet ones and generally keeping order — I also deal justice with my Lawgiver. The occasional execution is always good for fleet morale. Other rules will be made up and discarded on the whim of the bartender.
The first drink is of course free _________________ I'll have a Neutron Blaster please...

Barkeep leans on counter, drumming fingers, eyeballing the large rat over in the far corner which seemed to have the upper hand on a couple of unfortunate mice that had been preoccupied with a tasty lump of bread.
On the bar vid screen in the background the Pyramyd Multi-world series was screaming its way through one of the dullest semi-finals in a decade.
The monotonous drone of the vending machine could be heard, subsonic, barely audible yet always reassuring, going typoketa, typoketa, typoketa, typoketa, typoketa, typoketa...,
Yup, sure is hard running an old fashioned static business these days.
Especially one in an unfashionable part of town.

Never been to a bar. Nice place you have here. Quite the view. You can almost see the end of the universe from here. |

Er, that'd be my towel.
The hagrabiscuit machine has some extra nice towels available at very reasonable rates. _________________ I'll have a Neutron Blaster please...

Hey barkeep, you got anything for lag? I have a splitting headache, and some serious delay between typing 'access' and having my fleet scuttle itself.

Aaaw you're kidding me... I didn't hit edit?
You know, maybe I need something for the headache more than for the lag. |

Welcome patron.
Lag? Certainly sir.
We have Beeblebrox's Frosty Lagshortner™©® (Careful it has been known to make your hair fall out if you drink it too fast, and your head falls off it you drink it too slowly — so balance is needed). Your mouth will love you for at least 10 minutes after. Mmm the taste, hazelnut tannins blended with finest Scottish shortbread, leaving a fried blackberry aftertaste.
As to headaches, try the Hagrabiscuit™©®. It er, cures everything.

Nope.
But that bunch of Chimps over there in the corner have been busy forever on that iPad working out a plot for Hamlet.
They're good spenders too
