it's gotta be less than or equal to the number of characters in the original (or does it?)

Actually, I do.
If you don't want to mess up the whole files script..then you can only have it shorter or the same length than the original.
But that means replacing with a space, NOT deleating!
do not EVER delete in hex editor

Okay, the tag you need to look in is ui\multiplayer_game_text
The text is set up so there is a 00 in between each character, so in ascii it would look like K.i.l.l.e.d and so on
K is different from k
The best way to do a search for text is to skip the first letter, and use a few letters after that. Be sure to add 00's between each letter
i.l.l.e.d would be
69 00 6c 00 6c 00 65 00 64 00
Have fun!
