A: How many steps are there actually on the path to High Hrothgar

Mark TrappFor the good of Gaming.SE, I actually counted the steps. There are nowhere near 7,000 steps in the game: I counted 732 visible step-like objects (tiered, flat platforms) on the way to High Hrothgar. Bridge to Emblem I: 21 Emblem I to II: 151 Emblem II to III: 173 Emblem III to IV: 124 Emblem IV...

Q: Where are the birds?

DrZI'm level 25 in Skyrim and I don't think I've seen a single bird. I've had some bats fly past me once or twice, but that's about it. These areas, with the mountains and beautiful terrain, birds should be flying everywhere.

 
answered, next!
@Wipqozn Penguins in my Skyrim? Where?

Q: Are there any time-sensitive events in Skyrim?

jpreteAre there any time-sensitive events in Skyrim, whose occurrence is based on how many in-game days have passed? Or, to phrase it another way, are there any disadvantages to waiting out time indefinitely, as is often suggested for merchant restocking?

 
@Wipqozn that doesn't have anything to do with programming; that question is decidely e-sports related, which I thought this site wanted to include as on-topic
so e-sports is categorically off-topic?
 
@NickT It's not, but this is not about e-sports
It's about a person's uploads of e-sports
 
1:08 AM
who is intimately intertwined with it
 
The subject above is 'uploads', not 'person' or 'esports'
 
it's about the act of watching
 
eh. When I think e-sports, I'd rather think playing than watching.

I don't think we'll ever get any (serious) questions about actually playing in e-sports tournaments as those questions would be on much more specialized sites
 
@NickT jeff blogs is about programming, and day[9] dailies are about starcraft 2
 
@NickT "too specialized" is a bad reason to rule off-topic
see the Poker proposal on Area51. "BUT REAL POKER ENTHUSIAST DON'T WANT A GENERIC SITE ABOUT CARD GAMES!!!"
 
@badp what? I mean those questions will never be here
 
1:13 AM
@NickT what? doesn't mean we should rule them off-topic.
besides, a lot of people play games competitively

@Thomas got himself one of those medals in TF2 for participating in one of those events
 
@Wipqozn there's programmers.SE, but I fail to see how enough traffic would be generated to sustain a gamers.SE
 
@NickT gamers.SE will never exist.
If it can be on topic on gamers.SE certainly it can be on topic on gaming.SE
There's no need to have two sites.
 
but those softer questions aren't allowed here...

@NickT What softer questions?
 
questions about watching it

Gamers wouldn't be a Q&A about streamers and players
 
It's like someone asking a question on TV.SE about "when does ChannelX broadcast stuff"
 
@NickT too localized!

@badp based on his latest comment, I wasn't sure.
 
for, otherwise I never see a valid e-sports related question being asked here
because nobody who's engaged in playing it would bother, they'd be on higher-level, more specialized sites
clearly I'm wrong on this, so oh well
 
valid e-sports questions would be "how" or "what" questions, now "when"!

The commentator spent twenty minutes speaking about the eliminations and the repicks and the forfeits and all the different scenarios, and I couldn't understand a thing!

@badp Great example.

There, have an example that I would be okay with about watching e-sports
 
whatever, doesn't matter
 
1:21 AM
@badp a nice clearly answerable question!
 
@NickT that doesn't apply to badps post.
badp's post is about someone watcing
 
as for playing e-sports, I'd rather see something such as "How do I manage stress?" or "How to pull off a comeback?" or whatever

Q: What does Pickpocketing : Perfect Touch do?

KillithIn particular, what types of items can I now steal that I couldn't before? I've not noticed any difference in getting the perk. Also, once I got the perk that lets you steal weapons, I noticed that the weapons appear sporadically in the list. Maybe there is a trick to it I'm missing.

Q: How can I stop those assasins that are trying to kill me?

alexanderpasI'm walking here is Skyrim, and suddenly I get attacked by an assassin.

The Black Sacrament has been performed - somebody wants this poor fool dead....

 
@badp WEll, you could, but then you would probably run into trouble.

How is this "too localized"?
It's got no less than four such votes.
 
uses words like "new"
 
and I can't do anything about it
 
just like the auto-subjective-o-detector scans for "best", etc

Q: Are there any plans to move server-side the achievements and statistics?

LohorisLocally-saved achievements and statistics do not feel terribly appealing to me, it would make much more sense to save them server-side, of course. I wonder if there are officially any plans to do it: in the wiki there's no mention about that, but in a comment here it is assumed there are...

 
oh, I was wondering what those X x Y votes things meant
 
1:32 AM
"Not constructive?" I could see a case for "off-topic: asks about the future", but not constructive?
 
@badp I'll be honest, I voted to close that, but I'm not sure why.
 
people don't really read the close reasons at some point
they just click on the other one with the red thing
half the time I'll add a vote and have no clue why people are using some other reason

Q: Should I join or destroy the Dark Brotherhood?

EmanueleI'm playing a full mage and I've got to chose if joining or not the Dark Brotherhood. Apart that killing low level NPCs is far from exciting and looks like more as assassin questline, should I join it or not? What do you suggest? For the time being I'm playing both scenarios and I'm not convince...

Another "not constructive". I agree, the asker says "what do you suggest", which is kinda ugh, but otherwise the question is fine.
 
@badp Should I join or destroy the Dark Brotherhood?
That is off-topic
BUT
 
@Wipqozn wat
 
1:34 AM
the question is salvageable
@badp err, that is "not constructive" is what I meant
 
what are the benefits of joining/destroing the dark brotherhood.
 
@alexanderpas Yes, but that's not what the quesiton title says. Some people just vote to close based on the title, without taking the time to improve the question.
or even read the question

I dunno, could be better
 
@NickT > What do you suggest?
That needs to be modified
 
I dunno, maybe just close it then
 
1:37 AM
@NickT I edited it out
the question is fine
 
The underlying question is good, just bad presentation.
 
@alexanderpas exactly.
 
half the time I never really think it's worth-while to edit questions that are about to be closed (3/4 votes) because they almost always will be, especially after I bump them to the front
 
This is part of the reason I wish you could undo a close vote
sometimes I'll vote to close a question, but then I'll think about it a bit more and realize the question just needed a little editing.
 
especially if the title could be misconstrued in any way

Q: What happens in the ending of Batman Arkham City?

SergioI'm confused about the ending of Arkham City: Or is it a ploy? At the end during the credits you can hear a voice mail he left you three hours earlier, does this have any bearing on the situation?

 
@NickT It's always worth while. IF it gets closed, vote to re-open, or ping/flag a mod.
 
we can always vote to reopen, or ping@badp or inform other mods by flagging it .
 
Not constructive? It needs careful answering, but...
 
mods are slow, votes to re-open are well-hidden
 
@NickT come to chat then. I will normally bring situations like that up in chat, since I know mods are normally in here.
 
1:40 AM
only practical way is to canvass chat
mods are normally in here? where?
are any listening?
 
@badp yeah, it's a speculation question.
 
@NickT nope, a [closed] tag after a question always gets some attention from me ;)
 
o_O
 
@NickT ...you do know know that badp is a mod, right?
 
@Wipqozn It isn't if you follow policy and stick to what the game says
If the game says Joker dies, then yes, Joker dies. If a subsequent game says that Joker didn't really die and explains why, then the answer changes.
Spoiler alert.
 
1:42 AM
I try to answer as un-subjectively as possible whenever I can.
 
@badp That is sensible to me.
 
if its possible to answer, I do my best.
 
When you put it like that, the question seems fine.

Q: Where can I find full versions of non-blizzard starcraft 2 campaigns?

jznI have seen a smattering of non-blizzard starcraft 2 campaigns, in the form of single maps on various sites, and buzz sites for unfinished new campaigns. I have yet to discover anywhere on the web to find any finished multi-level starcraft 2 campaigns. Does such a thing exist?

Q: What is the assassin's creed?

agent86At some point in every Assassin's Creed game, the creed itself comes up, but I can never remember what it is. I know it has something to do with "everything is permitted" and there's another part about light and dark. Does anyone remember the full assassin's creed and what it means? Also I see...

 
@Wipqozn there's more to it than that, there's a recitation they do.
everything is permitted, nothing is true (?) we serve in the dark to protect the light?
 
also the finger thing you didn't answer

Nothing is true, everything is permitted.

(because apparently I'm that dumb) what's a circle?
 
A circle is a simple shape of Euclidean geometry consisting of those points in a plane that are a given distance from a given point, the centre. The distance between any of the points and the centre is called the radius. Circles are simple closed curves which divide the plane into two regions: an interior and an exterior. In everyday use, the term "circle" may be used interchangeably to refer to either the boundary of the figure, or to the whole figure including its interior; in strict technical usage, the circle is the former and the latter is called a disk. A circle is a special...

they said they were dependent on whatever used stuff they may get in

@alexanderpas shrugs the game sounds like fun to me. He's not that terrible.
 
2:53 PM
@alexanderpas He's actually really popular in Japan.
 
user15026
@FallenAngelEyes That makes sense, definitely. Oh well. Thanks for trying for me! :)
 
I will keep an eye out though!
 
Also, @alexanderpas, who do you consider the worst?
 
user15026
@FallenAngelEyes Sounds like a plan. Thanks :D

Q: Where can I find all of the Unusual Gems?

victoriahIs there a big reward for collecting them? The ones I've found so far involved stealing from Jarls, so there had better be a hefty price on them.

@alexanderpas navi isn't so bad once you learn to tune her out
 
user15026
@alexanderpas She's easily ignored, and sometimes pretty freaking useful. And unlike Fi, her voice doesn't give me the creeps. She also doesn't get demanding about how my health is low.
 
@AshleyNunn That is so annoying
 
I never had a problem with Navi. I don't know why people are so frustrated with her. I didn't even need to tune her out or anything.
 
BING BING BING YOUR HEALTH IS LOW! BING BING BGIN

@Wipqozn It's like uh, I noticed I am dying, thanks. Unless you can offer practical help, LEAVE ME ALONE. Don't get me started on how "Hint" usually just tells me about the room I am in. X(
 
@AshleyNunn haven't played SS too much (thank you skyrim), but if that's true... we have a new "winner"
 
user15026
@GraceNote I only didn't like her and found her annoying when I was choosing to do something other than what she wanted me to do, and she kept trying to tell me to go somewhere else.
 
@GraceNote In all honesty, I'm the same way.
I do find Fi very annoying though. She beeps when you are low on health, beeps when your batteries are low... it's annoying, and you never know when she is beeping with useful information or something pointless.
 
user15026
@Wipqozn This. So this.
 
beeps when your batteries are low... is pretty usefull!
 
3:01 PM
@alexanderpas It is... except she doesit over and over and over
You only need to do it once.
I know they are low, thanks! Stop telling me, because I'm not changing them until they actually die
 
user15026
@Wipqozn That's the worst part. Even if you check to see what she wants, if you don't fix it, she's gonna keep telling you. And keep telling you.
 
@AshleyNunn I know
 
@Wipqozn having rechargeables, I usually change them when the ping comes on.
I learned that the hard way during my 60 hours of Twilight Princess. (in 3 days!)
 
I also don't think Fi has even said anything useful
IT's usually her stating the obvious, and saying their is a 90% chance it is true
"Hello Link! I have a bottle on me!"
There is a 90% chance that person has a bottle on them
 
the chance thing I see as Fi being Fi.
 
user15026
3:05 PM
There is a 90% chance you are in a room that has a door and some walls. That is my hint for you.
 
I really wish there was a way to modify Fi and her little announcements
Such as disabling her health warning
 
@Wipqozn hey, LISTEN.
@Wipqozn hey,hey, hey, LISTEN
@Wipqozn LISTEN! hey, LISTEN!
 
@agent86 Luckily, I can just ignore you :)

You might know Chris better as “Grace Note,” the moderator extraordinaire on our Gaming Stack Exchange.

I appointed Chris to a pro tem moderator position nearly a year ago. I wasn’t an avid user of Gaming SE, but I was continually amazed how often Chris’s name kept popping up in our moderator chat room. Chris was quickly becoming The Person to quote when you needed a clear, compelling explanation of how this community-management stuff should work. Even in our meta community, Chris was earning a ridiculous amount of rep in a short period of time. You should read some of his posts because it’s really good stuff. …

@GraceNote ^I've just read it (I've been out of the loop for a while) That's what I would call a a Gender Confusion WIN!
 
user15026
@GraceNote I am partway through the second world. :)
 
@AshleyNunn So, less than 30 Energy Spheres.
 
user15026
3:35 PM
@GraceNote Yeah, I think so. :) Why do you ask?
 
I was going to ask for your cooperation in asking a question about the 30 Energy Sphere mini-game, haha, but I can't in good conscience do that if you haven't even played it yet.
 
user15026
@GraceNote Unfortunately no - the only minigame I have is the ninja star one.
 
Well, I can always wait. And just have a big huge answer waiting. ♪
 
user15026

@alexanderpas Thank god the loop's broken in HTML 5 and only does "HEY LIS-"

Q: My silver pickaxe got damaged. How is it possible?

Augustus ThooI crafted my first silver pickaxe in Terraria 1.1. I did not examine its stats until some time later. The name color is grey with -14% damage. I have no problem mining with it but killing monsters especially cave bats (which I have been doing a lot) got weaker. Can anyone give an insight into w...

 
@badp it is not, your browser is probaly broken ;)
 
@alexanderpas it has inbuilt sanity saving mechanisms :P
@alexanderpas Tsk tsk tsk, tried the same in Firefox. It's just as broken
you made me check, even.
actually Chrome stops as "HEY LIST-", Firefox gives up at "HEY LI-"
 
With a straw? oh well, whatever rocks your boat.
if I wanted I could edit it once more and there'd be nothing you could do about it
but I'm not that lame, or I'll just ban you let it be instead
 
@badp flag for moderation ;)
 
3:52 PM
@alexanderpas I can dismiss them :P
(and you wouldn't know I'd have, or who'd have)
 
At any rate, it's an amazon cloud link, so it'll just rot on its own in the matter of minutes
(that's why you can use the upload button for URLs too)
 
I know, I just tend to forget...
 
yeah, it's funny seeing @Gnomeslice getting constantly owned by hotlink protections

Q: How long does it take to recharge the Disruptor to detonate proximity mines?

Mehper C. PalavuzlarAfter detonating 2 proximity mines in order, the Disruptor cannot be used. I guess that some time should pass (for recharge?) till I can re-use it. How long does it take to recharge the Disruptor?

Q: How can I tunnel through water?

Ben BlankI'm trying to figure out how tunnel, both horizontally and vertically, through large bodies of water — preferably a method which can be used early in the game and which can be done with on-hand materials rather than a lot of setup. In earlier versions of the game, water was permanently destroyed...

Q: 'Beta' medal - Can the game be completed to 100% without it?

PurplegothThe medal "Beta Tester - Participated in the Beta" is locked for me as I did not take part in the beta tests. Does this mean that I cannot complete the game to 100%?

 
Protip: if you're preventing people from capping, don't ever do any of these:
- REGULAR UBER
- BONK
- DISGUISE
- CLOAK

@FallenAngelEyes Because you suck are skillfully challanged?
 
@Wipqozn Yes
 
wtf happened there o.O
Is my message posted after yours @FallenAngelEyes?
It shows up that way for me
 
4:51 PM
After the Yes?
 
@FallenAngelEyes yes
 
@Wipqozn Not for me.
 
@Wipqozn No
 
Weird. It would see chat is trying to mess with my head.
 
@Wipqozn I blame @Lazers
 
4:54 PM
@Ullallulloo yeah, the lazers guy is a total dick
@Ullallulloo ...done? lol
 
@Wipqozn Yes, if you're gonna reply, we'll just be mean to @Lazers.
 
@Ullallulloo Sounds good
 
I find it kind of ironic that an answer I posted to a question that was very narrow in scope and kind of silly, but there was an argument about closing got 9 upvotes, but I post a way to get every challenge to get a tough achievement in a popular game and I get 4. These things make me smile :)
(not that getting any more upvotes today would change my rep. so if you're thinking "I CAN FIX THIS" please wait till the day rolls over, kthxbye)

A: How can I install Firefox on the PS3?

agent86Once upon a time, it was possible to install Linux distributions (or another OS) on the PS3, and if you did that it was possible to install Firefox as well. However, Sony removed that option in firmware revision 3.21. Since that time, the only software that can be run on the PS3 is official Son...
