The best one I've had were among numerous requests for "turrents" in the vents, even a CC in the vent. There was also a guy who needed a welder to carry both Jetpack and HA. ? Where do people get these ridiculous ideas....?
On the marine team, things are looking bad. We have a lerk umbraing 2 fades, another 2 outside marine start healing at an alien aid station, and a gorge that has dropped OTs all over base. We are plain toast as anyone spawning in can attest. So up goes the call for "BEACON!!! USE DISTRESS BEACON!!!" yeah, that's gonna save us.

Kinda a funny story. Map was ns_nothing, we were winning, we had tons of res without relocating to cargo, and control of two hives. We just needed to take over via. Two HA marines were around that area below generator, (don't know what it's called), but the part with that pipe, and that small secret type of room. Not red room, the other one at ground level. So they were two HA marines in there and they couldn't get up. So what did they do, ask me to drop them a comm chair to use as a staircase. I did. They got up. We won.
Got attacked by one skulk and this newb was like "OMG YOU NUB COMM YOUR SUPPOSED TO BUILD TEH TURRANTS FIRST" I responded "You are my turret and a lot cheaper" and dropped an IP on his head.
