Actually, you should have capitalized the L, O and C as well. So you were extra wrong.

Not necessarily.

Articles and determiners should not be capitalised when creating an acronym. G-LOC should therefore be written G-LoC. While the former appears to be the generally accepted way of writing it, it's incorrect from a prescriptive grammarian's perspective.

I therefore submit to you that BQZip was not extra wrong, but only 2/3rds extra wrong.

I concede to the gentleman from Great Britain and waive my right to a rebuttal.

The USAF standard, while perhaps making grammarians cringe, is well known. He is 100% wrong.

Good technique. Bullets impacting the target and it might or might not be a kill. Bullets impacting target, it catches fire, and turret comes off, you have yourself a kill. If 50 rounds are good, 100 must be better.

As they said in the SAC days, there is no horse too dead to beat.

Especially if it continues to show signs of life.
