The name comes from the popular Spacebattles line 'One at sufficient velocity'.Quote:Rod H wrote:Thank you. While I've heard the names of the first two you cited, "Sufficient Velocity" is completely unknown to me and I've not a clue about "QQ." Since it's sites you're talking about, I'll venture a guess that "AH" stands for "AlternateHistory" -- which, again, I've heard of but never visited.
StarDestroyer, Space Battles, Sufficient Velocity which should leave the last two self-explanatory but I don't lurk on those.
QQ is (I believe, I'm not a member) 'Questionable Content' forum, a smaller and earlier spin off of SB, which allows adult material in the stories/etc. It wasn't the main purpose at the boards creation, but that is apparently what it's become known for.
You're probably correct about AH being Alternate History, but I've visited that site rarely and only thru links to specific threads.
