We're sitting in a meeting and our Development Director said "We've contracted some Type R programmers".

I had never heard this term before, so I jotted it down on my notepad, so I could inquire about it later.

Just then our Lead Engineer asks "What is Type R?"

Our Dev Director looked stumped. "What do you mean?"

"You said 'Type R Programmers'" said the Lead Engineer.

"No, I said 'High Powered'." said the Dev Director.

"No you didn't. You said 'Type R.' See I wrote it down." I said, and showed him my notepad that said "Type R?".

So now, everything high powered and awesome in the office is "Type R".

I am now on a crusade to get it used outside our offices. I should add it to urban dictionary or something.

Sorry Posi, but Honda and Irem beat you to it. Honda does use it to denote their high-powered line though, so maybe your Director thought he was being clever.

R is a programming language with built in statistical components. Maybe he is looking at hiring someone who has R Programming Experience.

Fix't. Let' s not confuse "special performance" with "high-powered"; Type R needs to have broader application if it's going to spread ...

So very tempted to add 'This is a type R character' or some such to all my bios. Shame it'd put half of them over the character limit.

wait, wait, wait...built in statistical components you say? Could that be used for this "alignment" system that is mentioned in Going Rogue?

No, no. TYPE-R is the codeword you put in your MA arc's description so people can specificly search for the awesome ones.

You have a Dev Director?

And you totally should copyright or TM that thing.

That sounds like a new Mastermind Primary: Dev Directing! You can summon 3 interns, 2 programmers, and 1 lead designer. R-Type is the level 32 upgrade, of course. :-)

I'm sure they'll have it ready for I16!

Makes me wonder, is there a Type Z programmer, or is that status reserved for alien supergenius programmers?

Honda and Acura were the first things I thought of, too, along with Nissan (Although Nissan doesn't use "Type R", they do add the "R").

I'm not sure if that makes me more or less strange.

Uh... no. But R-Type is still a decent difficulty.

Ok... that is ridiculous. I am (or at least was) pretty good at shooters, but I wouldn't even try that.

The sub-genre is called "Bullet Hell" or "Curtain Fire". Can't imagine why. It is pretty silly, but what's worse is that there are players who can beat that.
