@LessPop_MoreFizz mkay. know that I am doing this as a Nice Thing for you, and my ambivalence towards hats this year continues.
 
@agent86 Yeah, I am nowhere near as excited about hats this year as I was last year. But the experimentation part still interests me a bit.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz for science!
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz what are you trying to achieve?
 
@pixel Not a huge fan of Star Wars, but Star Trek is excellent
 
and you should possibly accept some of your old questions that I've answered
possibly
@SaintWacko mmmh
the only star* that is any good is stargate
 
4:03 PM
@AshleyNunn Oh, there's a hat for that? No wonder there aren't any close votes in the review queue!
@pixel Stargate is also excellent
 
@SaintWacko a hidden hat at that
 
@pixel stares at the review queue
 
I am missing a couple more helpful flags from my 21st hat
I'm pretty sure I have the most hats on SE atm
 
@pixel You certainly do on GSE
 
user15026
WHEEE I AM FINALLY DONE FOR THE TERRRRRM
 
user15026
4:05 PM
I think I will celebrate with a nap.
 
MSO's top user is 19
SO is 18
 
@pixel Regular SO is just 18
But there're two of those
 
scifi is 17
movies is 8
 
@pixel Those are probably the most likely to have lots of hats being given out
 
gamedev is 6
I might actually go and get top hats on gamedev as well

Q: Synonym request - megaman-x-street-fighter

pixelCan megaman-x-street-fighter be made a synonym of street-fighter-x-megaman please? megaman-x-street-fighter was the early working title of the game street-fighter-x-megaman, we've had 2 questions raised so far, both of them using megaman-x-street-fighter and subsequently retagged. The game is r...

Q: What does a stat over 100 mean?

MikeI have a unit with 85 aim, if I give them a light plasma rifle with a scope that would be +20. What would an aim of 105 mean? Is there a reason to ever go over 100 on any stat except Hit Points :)

 
@agent86 Huh. Intrigue.
 
Okay, someone write a terrible question so I can participate in closing it
 
Because it's really dumb if it is.
 
duno I'll watch it when I get home
yep, 100 rep just from people accepting answers
 
okay, just had the ending of AC3 spoiled for me. sigh the perils of being a mod.
 
4:11 PM
^_^
@agent86 /violin
 
@pixel I will indeed have some cheese with my whine, tyvm
 
@agent86 You can switch that accept back. It does not seem to work.
 
Fucking comments on this show's episodes on Youtube are the most depressing thing.
 
@GnomeSlice too many words in that sentence, try "fucking youtube comments are the most depressing thing." - same message, less effort
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz roger that.
 
4:13 PM
@agent86 I assume it's something to do with the modern part of the story. AKA the part I give negative cares for.
 
21 hats
 
@GnomeSlice What about the normal comments?
 
@OrigamiRobot indeed.
 
I have now completed the bottom half of the hats box
 
@OrigamiRobot Depends on the video, but usually they're not TOO bad.
 
4:15 PM
Wait a minute...
I got the hat "I feel fine"
But it's only the 20th here....
 
@Retrosaur OLD
 
There's a 12 hour window for earning those
 
Oh god....I'm late to the party aren't I?
 
@GnomeSlice I'm not sure what on earth gives you the impression that that video has anything to do with 'how magic works in mmos'. Perhaps the horifically misproportioned cartoon boobies have broken your brain?
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Do female characters actually get stupid magic like that, or is that just a joke.
 
4:16 PM
I find it ironic, I think they're giving you it in advance to prevent the possibility of not getting it tomorrow if the world ends
 
I mean, presumably it's exagerrated.
 
If the world ends tomorrow, I'll be sad.
Because the Winter Sale for Steam should start today or tomorrow
 
@GnomeSlice Suddenly realize this is not a video I should watch at work
 
and if it's tomorrow, I've missed out on some great deals :(
 
@GnomeSlice ... ... ... ... ... I'm going to pretend you never asked that question, in the interest of my continued not quite rock bottom opinion of you.
 
4:16 PM
@GnomeSlice It's normal for female characters to wear nothing in games, even though the male version of the same armour covers their enter body and most of the landscape in their immediate vicinity
 
because I think all MMOs
should have a seduce option for fem characters
 
but we get the same spells as everybody else
 
seduce the other foes
 
(I haven't yet watched the video)
 
@GnomeSlice I'm not sure if you missed the joke or not...
 
4:17 PM
THEN STAB THEM IN THE BACK 26 TIMES
 
Jin
wait PoE is still in beta? I thought it was out already
 
OMG ITS JIN ITS JIN IT JIN
 
@pixel Yeah, the first or so episode is about that.
 
@Jin Jin! Are you able to find out who has the most hats on all SE sites?
I didn't think about that before typing it, of course it will come out as Jin Jin
 
@pixel @Jin Lazers, obviously.
 
4:18 PM
 
Jin
@pixel you? just go to winterba.sh/leaderboard
it's possible that someone from a lower ranked site may have more hats, but unlikely.
 
@OrigamiRobot LOL
 
representing gamers everywhere
 
Jin
@pixel so... which one is your favorite hat so far?
 
@Jin none of them, they don't go with my avatar
 
4:20 PM
Mondo is the best.
 
Jin
@pixel and you're not even wearing a hat!
 
@Jin see previous statement
 
Jin
@pixel maybe a tiny halo would go well with your gravatar...
OR... you could just change your gravatar :)
 
certainly, if only there was a tiny halo
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz What, I don't play MMOs
 
4:22 PM
@GnomeSlice MMOs are generally quite sexist games by design
 
Does SO have hats disabled? If so, why are they earning hats...?
 
OMG THEY LEAVE ON A SLEIGH
MINION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
@BenBrocka You have to manually opt in.
 
@Retrosaur OLD
 
I'm late to the party as always
T.T
GNOME JUST LEFT ON A SLEIGH SO KEWLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
#YOLOOOOO #SWAGGGGGG #DEAD
 
4:23 PM
Oh, I figured my opt-in on other sites would carry over
 
did you just yolo in chat

Dec 9 at 15:36, by GnomeSlice
Krazer just left chat in a sleigh...
 
Exact Lotion is a terrible band name.
 
@pixel My dear sir, I don't understand where you got these rash accusations from?
 
HOW RUDE
 
4:24 PM
This is a conversation I just had with a coworker...
 
@pixel Indeed minion. I apologize for my rudeness. I shall clean it up at once.

Humor & Pranks

Proposed Q&A site for humorists, pranksters, and those interested in the historical & cultural impact of comedy on society.

Currently in definition.

 
YOLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOLOOLOLO‌​LOROFLMAOLOL
 
I need to answer 5 more questions
 
We need hats with unusual particle effects
Can I get a sunbeams scrooge
 
4:25 PM
@LessPop_MoreFizz wat
 
Or in particular, orbiting planets on my fez?
 
Who the fuck flagged the YOLO
And why
Fuck man
 
Could it be pixel
 
@GnomeSlice YOLO is offensive man.
 
@GnomeSlice Humour. Serious business.
 
4:25 PM
could it be pixel? Or could it be pixel
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz 'you only live once' is offensive?
 
NOPE ITS ME HAHHAHAHAHAHAA
@GnomeSlice it's offensive to some Buddhists
 
nope
I didn't flag
 
@Retrosaur Calm down. You can't flag yourself.
 
If I had flagged, it would be obvious
 
4:26 PM
@Retrosaur HAH.
 
@GnomeSlice knows, he tried
 
@pixel Flags are all anonymous
 
@GnomeSlice so? Chat messages aren't anonymous
 
Whatever, point is, stop flagging dumb shit, everyone.
 
nothing spells out "I just flagged you" like screaming abuse at somebody
why do you think I always get banned just after flagging something
like that time we both got banned
 
4:27 PM
@pixel I've never seen you get banned.
Maybe I have, I forget.
 
@GnomeSlice yes you have
 
I get banned a lot.
 
@GnomeSlice I complained and stamped my feet afterwards for double standards and you got banned too
 
@GnomeSlice Yes, you do. And the sad part is you never learn from your mistakes.
 
@fbueckert Finally, he understands.
@fbueckert Hopefully I won't have to worry about it any more tomorrow.
 
4:28 PM
@GnomeSlice I understood a long time ago.
 
Just few hours before the world ends I got the answer. :) But I have already bought the laptop which could play this game :P — Rakesh Juyal 1 min ago
 
The fact that you seem to enjoy not learning is what disappoints me greatly.
 
@pixel To avoid the end of the world.
WE NEED TO FLY TO TOKYO NOW
Step 1. Fly to tokyo
 
@fbueckert I think you're mistaking 'not learning' for 'not caring'
 
Step 2. ?????
Step 3. PROFIT!!!!
 
4:29 PM
@Retrosaur Tokyo is ~13 hours ahead of is.
It's almost the 21st there.
 
@fbueckert Right, so once they're all dead, we can fly there and rebuild society without getting killed ourselves.
We'll have to fly the other way round the world though.
Plus we can take all of their sweet fold-up bikes.
@Jin Has anyone found the easter egg yet?
 
@fbueckert THEN WE'll FLY TO TIME ZONE +12 at 11:59 pm at Time ZONE -12
 
@fbueckert what
@Retrosaur You may release the shift key now.
 
@GnomeSlice thanks, I was beginning to think I'd had not made it
 
Argh, I can't decide which Torchlight II class I like the most.

Q: What are the new guns in the Torgue DLC?

Ben BrockaI'm vaguely familiar with the Torgue legendaries from the main game (Flakker, Nukem and such) but casually glancing at the legendaries in the Torgue vending machines I've never quite noticed which are the new ones. Unlike the Pirate's Booty DLC the new weapons seem to blend in with the old one (n...

Q: Football Manager 2013 Regens - will they get called up to the german team?

RobPDue to the fix in place in FM2013, current german players cant get called up to the national squad. However i want to know if anyone has played beyond the current years and if they notice if any of the new regenerated player

Q: How to reset only the young drivers test mode in F1 2012?

MarlosIs it possible to only reset the Young Drivers Test mode in F1 2012 (PS3)?

 
QUESTION ASKED
I'm on a roll lately.
 
@OrigamiRobot To combat D3 item duping, all account rollbacks in the Taiwan region make all equipment account-bound.
 
@fbueckert Interesting.
Was the duping fixed?
 
@OrigamiRobot That lends credence to the thought that most duping was caused by account rollbacks.
@OrigamiRobot There has been multiple methods of creating dupes, apparently.
This one seems to have been (or is) the most common.
 
@Brant And worth every penny.
 
@GnomeSlice For future reference, you can find out what any shrine does by mousing over the buff icon down near your health orb.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Oh cool, I'll have to look for that next time, didn't even notice an icon.
 
I AM HOME
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Which class did you play?
 
4:50 PM
@fbueckert and then some
 
Embermage is probably the most like my alchemist in Torchlight.
 
@GnomeSlice Outlander.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz I was really interested in the Engineer, but it seems like a difficult class to play because of the skills. I made an outlander I liked... maybe I'll use that.
 
I gravitate almost magnetically to stealth/finesse/speed classes in most games.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz I'm the same with absorption based healing
I am extremely disappointed that GW2 has no healing classes
 
4:56 PM
@Brant What kind of game is this? I've never looked into it.
 
I gravitate to totally random things. I like agility and dislike straight up "fighter" builds in most cases though
 
I wish there were invisible hats.
I like my characters' hair.
@BenBrocka I like to have all of the abilities, which means I'm not very good at everything instead of being good at a few things.
 
@GnomeSlice Brains is not hair
 
@BenBrocka Torchlight man.
 
if the world doesn't end tonight, it's only 56 days until my birthday
 
5:07 PM
Argh, I can't decide.
 
Jin
@GnomeSlice no. DISAPPOINT!
you all are fired.
 
@BenBrocka Same here, just hacking away gets boring

Q: What Does the 'Shrine of Skill Mastery' do?

GnomeSliceI just came across something called Shrine of Skill Mastery. I activated it, and there was a glowy effect around my character, and a noise, but I didn't receive anything as far as I can work out. What did this do? This is what it looks like, but I've already activated it

 
Jin
@RonanForman do you guys have a MC server you play on?
 
5:18 PM
@Jin We have a surival server, I'm not sure if that's up though.
 
Jin
my kids have been playing on this hunger game server for the past few weeks
 
And the server you gave us should be running that map, let me check though.
 
@SaintWacko Exactly. Though I'm okay with melee classes with some twist to them
 
There are way too many pinned messages
@BenBrocka I've been enjoying the Engineer in TL2
 
@SaintWacko What would you remove?
 
Jin
5:20 PM
@SaintWacko my outlander in tl2 is a beast!
 
@RonanForman Dead Pixels and either Hat Dash or badp's message
 
@Jin Why do you ask?
 
I am sad when I can only see a few starred messages at a time :(
 
Jin
@RonanForman I thought my kids may want to play on it
 
@Jin I started an Outlander, but went back to my Engineer
 
5:21 PM
@SaintWacko Engie is fun to play, pretty chill too. Throw up your buildings and relax
 
Marshal star + bow tie = the Doctor.
 
Jin
@SaintWacko I thought outlander made the game too easy. I was poison glaive build.
 
Because Sheriffs are cool.
And so are bowties.
 
@Jin I don't think the survival server is up, the the map we just released is on gameon.stackgaming.com
 
@Jin It's not the thing where the snow moves towards the mouse when you hit Ctrl?
 
Jin
5:25 PM
@murgatroid99 I'M NOT SAYING NOTHING. NO.
 
Okay I like the EmberMage too.
@SaintWacko I started with that one, but I don't like how many of his skills require you to have to a certain type of weapon.
 
Jin
@GnomeSlice I have some phatlewts in tl2 if anyone wants them
i don't even remember what lvl my chars are.. lvl70ish i think
 
Has there been any more development on the whole WarZ fiasco?
 
Jin
jarrod 'n i quit playing because he got bored of it. his engie's only job was to bubble me
 
Such as the dev going, "I hate you all" and having a meltdown?
 
5:27 PM
@OrigamiRobot Haven't played it, but I see lots of questions, so I figure it can't be that bad.
 
Jin
@fbueckert WarZ dev team got bought by Zynga, then promoted to VPs.
 
Really?
 
Jin
@Brant no...
 
Oh.
See, both of those things (Zynga and WarZ) are such drama magnets that I actually believed you at first.
 
@Brant Says it's $10 for me.
 
Jin
5:29 PM
@Brant because they both are shitty
 
Now it's $7.49...
 
Tis the season to be EFFING COLD... So Cal is not supposed to get this cold :/
 
@GnomeSlice Yeah, I do miss having a lot of choice, but the big two-handed weapons are a lot of fun :D
 
I thought steam dropped and refunded all WarZ purchases?
 
Although if you want to use a cannon, you're pretty much SOL
 
5:30 PM
@SaintWacko You need two handed melee weapons and cannons to use a bunch of his skills, but some of them require a shield as well.
 
@GnomeSlice Yeah, I just skip those
 
@SaintWacko efqfefe3ilfbruiwgrse
@SaintWacko The fire shield ability sounds really good.
 
@GnomeSlice Whoa, he just jacked up the price.
 
@GnomeSlice I usually don't use shields. I like big heavy weapons
Man, now I want to play TL2
I wish I could play it off a flash drive
 
5:32 PM
@Brant Oh wow, it's changed to 25% off sale now, too.
 
Back to DCSS, I guess
Dungeon crawlers ftw!
 
> Problems with purchasing? Please email – contact@humblebundle.com
Wait, what?
 
Yeah, I guess Humble Bundle is handling the billing/distribution
 
Can't decide if I want to play as my Engineer, Outlander, or Embermage.
 
@Jin Its a nice 45 again this morning
Which is about 20 degrees too cold :P
 
5:35 PM
@OrigamiRobot roguelike, really fun, quite addictive
 
@James you have to manually request a refund, iirc
 
@agent86 Thankfully I did not buy into that game so I have nothing to do :D
 
@James neither did I, so we can be not-refund-requesting-buds today
 
Jin
I'm so hungry
 
@Jin same. it's almost lunchtime though
 
Jin
5:40 PM
@agent86 it's lunch time here, i have nothing in the house to eat. and I don't have a car :(
 
@Jin gnaw off your arm, it's probably 80% bacon at this point
 
85%
I did science
 
90, do I hear 90?
 
@agent86 That might be tinnitus.
 
From his days working around TV explosions on the set of Star Trek
 
5:42 PM
@agent86 Haha, sounds good :)
 
Jin
100%
 
@Jin kevin bacon is the best kind of bacon.
 
@Jin ... If I could Anti-Star something.. I would
 
Jin
@agent86 i know right? he should be the One True God
 
We need a black hole marker
 
Jin
5:43 PM
dammit I should've put him in the hat sprite instead of N. Cage
AND WHY DIDN'T I MAKE A BACON HAT? I FAIL AT LIFE.
7
 
@Jin yeah man. you're failing pretty hard at your game at this point.
 
Man torchlight 2 is so full of false advertising.
 
Jin
@agent86 but i'm a delicious failure?
 
The characters look nothing like the concept and ad artwork.
 
@GnomeSlice And in other games they do?
 
5:45 PM
@Jin I will grant you that.
 
Jin
@GnomeSlice TL2's char modeling turned me off at first, then I got used to it. the environments are decent imo.
 
@Jin You mean the manly forearms on all the women? :P
 
Jin
there are a lot of things in TL2 I liked.. e.g. sending pets to town to sell, faster traveling etc

Q: Where can I find all of the cars?

pixelIn the new Need for Speed game, Need for Speed: Most Wanted 2012, developed by Criterion games, instead of having to race to unlock all of the cars, you instead have to drive around the city of Fairhaven looking for them. Once you find one, you simply drive up along side it, which automatically a...

 
@Jin That was in TL1 as well.
Except for the travelling bit, I guess.
 
Jin
5:47 PM
I really enjoyed TL2.
 
haaah, I just saw that everquest is F2P on the steam store. part of me wants to install it and load it up just to laugh at how old it is now
 
Also the female outfits aren't as revealing as advertised. Except maybe the berzerker, but they look kind of like cartoons.
 
Really think this question is just going to be a clusterfck of opinions with no actual answer gaming.stackexchange.com/q/96698/18146
 
@Brian Should we all vtc for the hat? :P
 
CORRUPTION!
 
5:55 PM
Omg. Guys. I'm finally not stressed.
I'M NOT STRESSED. SCHOOL IS DONE.
OMGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG
 
@Mana Done done?
Or just end of year done?
 
End of semester
 
@SaintWacko i dont know, it has useful info, but everyone is going to come in with their own opinions
 
What's going to be weird is doing an internship for a year and then going back to school.
 
Really seems like the question was just to get a discussion going
which is not what the site is for
 
5:58 PM
 
The adjustment usually isn't too bad.
I did a seven month co-operative term right before my last term.
 
@GnomeSlice two characters from Mario.
and come on. really. Wario?!
 
@Mana It's just a collection of his work, he did a bunch of individual portraits.
 
@GnomeSlice I finally figured out what influences my male/female choices in games
 
Does anybody take Wario seriously as a villain?!?!?!?!?
 
5:59 PM
I base all my decisions on the genders from Diablo 2
 
@SaintWacko wat
