    Default Re: The Transcription of the Stick

    Here's some testing for different options for labeling.

    Most popular suggestion:
    Tarquin: Crap, the three prisoners at the bottom of the "E" burned out early. Now it looks like I just really like custard.

    Least amount of characters, but hard to see:
    Tarquin: Crap, the three prisoners at the bottom of the "E" burned out early. Now it looks like I just really like custard.

    Unwieldy, but it kinda helps:
    Tarquin: Crap, the three prisoners at the bottom of the "E" burned out early. Now it looks like I just really like custard.

    Looks good, but so many characters:
    Tarquin: Crap, the three prisoners at the bottom of the "E" burned out early. Now it looks like I just really like custard.

    3 Bracket attempts to avoid changing the text at all:
    [Tarquin] Crap, the three prisoners at the bottom of the "E" burned out early. Now it looks like I just really like custard.

    (Tarquin) Crap, the three prisoners at the bottom of the "E" burned out early. Now it looks like I just really like custard.

    {Tarquin} Crap, the three prisoners at the bottom of the "E" burned out early. Now it looks like I just really like custard.

    And Bolding them to see if that helps their case:
    [Tarquin] Crap, the three prisoners at the bottom of the "E" burned out early. Now it looks like I just really like custard.

    (Tarquin) Crap, the three prisoners at the bottom of the "E" burned out early. Now it looks like I just really like custard.

    {Tarquin} Crap, the three prisoners at the bottom of the "E" burned out early. Now it looks like I just really like custard.

    EDIT: Also, look at the bottom of the format rules, I have a clarification on new lines for speech bubbles!
