Oh. Not such a wide margin as the last time I complained about it. :)

@luserdroog mine too

@TheDoctor Same.

@luserdroog Heh, most of my rep from SO is probably from my code golf challenge, which is definitely a "fun" question in the context of SO.

yay for new challenge

bot will be up again when I get home

which would have been today, but I have to stay another day because of some huge snowstorm :/

@Doorknob I already know what it is, but you might want to define what ROT-n is

@undergroundmonorail Good point; I shall edit shortly...

ok, edited

'Morning

So I just updated the mission post, and we're beating CR in editors and closers (where they have made almost no progress), tied in 10ks, and still losing in 20ks (because we have none). We seem to be more stable than them (steady stream of 2ks/3ks) so yay!

I've got some deletevote fodder for all you 4ks in here:

codegolf.stackexchange.com/q/24727, codegolf.stackexchange.com/q/23082, codegolf.stackexchange.com/q/3054, codegolf.stackexchange.com/q/6221

(possible some deletable by 2ks as well)

I find it really sad that 5 people think that codegolf.stackexchange.com/questions/24724/… is answerable as is.

It's not.

Also, I decided to put three bounties for some questions that had lots of upvotes, but not much answers. They are also really generous, perhaps too much, but I don't care.

Wow I just realized I have more bronze badges than anyone has badges :-P

@xfix Ok, I'll see if I can answer any ;-)

@Peter I find this really sad:

When it's not.

I'm aware this is my own question. But yeah, I'm aware it's a bad question.

@xfix Whoops, sorry, didn't realize that was yours ;-) I can still say with confidence that it is most assuredly not the best question, no offense ;-)

No problem. I already voted to close it.

I'm going to have to wait until I get home for those bounty questions; they're quite hard.

Well, easy questions would have lots of answers.

I am currently being forced to use Internet Explorer >:O

I actually was wondering how many upvotes would I get before this question would be closed.

But seriously, popularity-contest questions get too many upvotes.

^

@Doorknob that's horrible! who is causing this treachery?

@xfix So why did you vote to reopen it?

@PeterTaylor: You caught me.

I like to vote to reopen just to vote to close soon after, when there are lots of votes to reopen.

@xfix ???

@xfix 450 for my ancient question?! I'm tempted to have a go at it myself! :-)

That was a strange question

@xfix Thanks for that bounty!

@WallyWest I narrowly won your bounty at the last minute by one character. :D

I really need to learn ruby. Any suggestions what challenge to do as a complete ruby noob?

Just for the fun, not for winning.

@TimWolla ummm, play around with it? :P

I can't think of any interesting programs that don't exceed my current knowledge

It's not that fun Googling / Looking up every single line

Hmmm, I don't really remember how I learned Ruby... let me think...

When I get home, I'll sort by Ruby folder by oldest and find the first one and see what the code looked like :P

@xfix Did you know that you can visit the Reopen review queue and vote to leave closed?

se does have an issue of attempting to get voters to conform to policy.

but if there is no policy, the voting should not be constrained.

is there any policy against voting against joke answers? if not, dont know what the complaints are about.

←just worked hrs on nonjoke answer thats at 2v :\
