*presses button labeled "Canned Mad Scientist Laughter #0172"*

Wow, you've got 172 different canned mad scientists laughs?  Mine ran out of oxygen somewhere around 12.  Beyond that, it was just whimpering and wheezing and an occasional hammering as he tried to get out. 

What's your secret? 
Should I be drilling air holes in the can?
...Or are you using multiple mad scientists in multiple cans?
...or multiple mad scientists in the same can, I guess.... they do say they're recyclable, after all.
... the cans, not the scientists....
... although....

No, no, he's using "canned" in the business sense. He hires a string of scientists, then cans them just before their work would achieve its breakthrough. After they finish swearing their revenge, he records the laughter part! (As for how he is sure they're mad? Wouldn't YOU be if you were canned days before your magnum opus was complete?)

Pity they decided to stop concentrating on the western market where we have no such regulations, huh?

I wonder if NCSoft is returning their phone calls.

Just discovered that Nexon are one of the sponsors of English premiership football club Queen's Park Rangers. Not sure if there's anything we can do with this info.

It's more sinister than that. All of his math is done in base 8 for security. It's actually only 122.
I wouldn't use the word "replace," but there's no word for "take over for you and make everything better almost immediately," so we just say "replace."

Diabolical!

Nobody should have to do base-8 conversions in their heads!

... though we've got a Mad Science wetware patch for that....

It's actually NCSoft's attempt to crack the Konami Code.

Programmers find base-16 far more useful. ;)
We were heroes. We were villains. At the end of the world we all fought as one. It's what we did that defines us.
The end occurred pretty much as we predicted: all servers redlining until midnight... and then no servers to go around.

Somewhere beyond time and space, if you look hard you might find a flash of silver trailing crimson: a lone lost Spartan on his way home.

I sure hope Dr. Horrible's laugh is in there! Both in its practice and final-form phases ;)

You all lead me on a search for mad scientist soundboards... and I am displeased to say that I did not find anything to my liking!!  >:(

Closest I found was this, but it's really not very good at all (not great selections, poor audio quality, too much delay from when you start a clip):
Professor Farnsworth Soundboard
