Re: date of UCAS pulling out of BRA. St. Kay's "UCAS Drops a Nuke (Metaphorically) is timestamped 9-12-80/1341:55, but the response from the Corporate Court is timestamped 10-28-80/15:00:01 and begins "Over the past sixteen days, the Corporate Court... has been reviewing the situation regarding the decision by the United Canadian and American States to unilaterally and abruptly declare the Business Recognition Accords null and void within their territories", with the blackouts beginning very shortly thereafter (with Philly going dark some time between 10-29-80/2300:13 and 11-06-80/0013:55).

It seems more likely that St. Kay Irregular's timestamp is a typo and should be 10-12 than that the corporate court and whoever did the blackouts waited a month and half before responding to the UCAS's decision.


It probably is a typo, but we might need to wait for a future source book to clarify/contradict this source to be sure. But having a note about the oddity is probably a good idea. Dethstrobe (talk) 13:06, 2 April 2021 (UTC)


I thought I made a not somewhere in the wiki, but I actually checked with the CGL freelancer before adding the event in the chronology here, and yes it is a typo and what I added is the correct date. The french version of Cutting Black will have this fixed (sadly the German version has been printed with the mistake). I'm not sure if any book coming will ever give a chance to fix this.rpelisse (talk) 13:36, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
