@agent86 I hate you so much right now.
@Mana You are forgiven.
@RonanForman Yes.
Ah, those are the songs @gnome linked yesterday. Very well done.

Q: How do I crush wood?

JeffreyIs there any way to crush a wood block (the one that compose the grown tree)? I'd like to crush the tree and get directly the block that can be stored in inventory without breaking it; so I was wondering if there's any way to do this.

Q: Metal Gear Solid 2 HD: How many Alternative/VR Missions are there?

Django ReinhardtI'm considering going for the "Virtually Impossible" achievement, but it would nice to know how much I need to do. If your answer broke down the number of missions per character and/sub-group that would be great. Thanks!

 
oh, agent was being sarcastic
:(
 
1:12 PM
@Wipqozn you're welcome
 
Sup all
 
"Downloading Diablo-III-8370-enGB-Installer"... 565 MB of 7.60 GB
 
Lol
 
happy happy clap clap
 
I don't even bother with Diablo 3,i was waiting so long for it that i got sick of it
They delayed it so many times that i just said:F... that sh..
 
1:20 PM
i didn't wait for it at all, had completely forgotten about it and then got hooked again a few weeks back :D
its going to be legen...wait for it...
 
lol
I think Torchlight 2 will > Diablo 3
 
I think this question is a dupe

Q: How can I automatically mine wood?

JeffreyIs there any way to go from wood blocks to items without manual intervention? I'd like to mine wood automatically without having to use my hands/tools.

 
Lol lazy ass =D
Hey guys is it stupid to convert .img file to .iso by using rename option and adding .iso at the end of file type lol?
I usually do that because I'm too lazy to use softwares for converting and it usually works,but i just wonder will that lead to any errors,data loss,or any bad side effects.
 
The IMG file format is one of the following files: # A CD or DVD image file, essentially equivalent to an ISO file. On such a file, simply changing the extension from IMG to ISO can make it usable as the latter by most programs. # An archive format used for creating a disk image of floppy disks and HDDs. This allows for digital storage, transmission, and replication of floppy disks and HDDs. Files created using this format typically use the ".IMG" file extension. There are different, incompatible image formats which use the .IMG extension. # A file in the Macintosh Disk Image format use...
note the first list item
 
Great ^_^ Thx
That means i can continue being lazy and renaming them all to .iso

1:26 PM
@ChrisHateZ I tire of this 'rivalry" because it's like people act like only one ARPG can exist or something. >_>
 
@FAE Or one absolutely must be better than the rest.
 
@FAE I haven't said only one can exist,i just said that one will be better then the other lol.
 
FAE
Two games can exist in the same genre and be awesome in their own right and cater to different audiences! Competition is healthy and it's how genres evolve.
 
I think each one will do some things better than the other. Such as T2 having LAN play.
 
FAE
@ChrisHateZ I think they both have aspects that will appeal to different types of gamers and different design philosophies. Doesn't necessarily mean one is better than the other, just that people's enjoyment levels will be different.
 
1:29 PM
@FAE I was just giving my opinion,for me one will be better then the other,and i am pretty sure T2 will > Diablo 3
 
and CoD2 was the best multiplayer shooter of all times
 
FAE
@ChrisHateZ Ah, well saying one will be better for you is different than a global statement of one being better than the other. :)
 
@skovacs1 There's special bath system in that game, too. It's quite risque...
 
@Krazer like I said extremely Japanese and you would probably like it.
 
FAE
1:36 PM
(note I'm not even buying D3, as T2 will be my game of choice as well)
 
@FAE Hah!
 
FAE
But I think it's important to be fair.
 
@FAE racist :P
@FAE I was seriously joking there.
 
did anyone play "Yesterday"?
 
Is Torchlight 2 multiplayer?
 
1:39 PM
To be fair in what sense lol.
 
@ChrisHateZ Yes. That was the joke.
 
I haven't heard a single thing about Torchlight 2 except that it exists because I was too busy getting hyped for D3.
 
@StrixVaria You can play it as single player or multiplayer.
@StrixVaria I'm pretty sure D3 will dissapoint me.
 
Torchlight was really short and had a lot of broken systems (adding more attributes to existing items made all items pretty stupid).
 
FAE
@skovacs1 I know, I'm playing GW now so I can't alttab anymore
 
1:41 PM
@StrixVaria Torchlight was a Fate rip-off with some changes.Imo Fate games are LOT better then Torchlight.
 
I've never even heard of those games.
 
@StrixVaria O.O
 
My short-term gaming future will be entirely consumed by Diablo 3, though, so I have no time to go trying out new stuff.
 
You never heard about Fate: Undiscovered Realms?
 
I bought Torchlight because it was on sale for $5 and the description said something about being a Diablo clone.
@ChrisHateZ No, I've never heard of that game.
 
1:42 PM
@ChrisHateZ I'm with Strix on this one. Fate whatnow?
 
And Torchlight was definitely worth $5. It was fun. It was just short and had no replayability.
 
17 hours!
 
(though in reality, it will be more like 32 until I can play)
 
It's sad people don't know Fate was here before Torchlight and that Torchlight was just a bad fate-copy with better graphics.
 
1:44 PM
I played Fate. I didn't like it
 
@Sterno D:
 
But I didn't like Torchlight much either after about 2 hours
 
@skovacs1 given how much they are probably censor it, it probably is too Japanese .lol
 
@ChrisHateZ Was fate the one where you caught fish inside other fish?
 
@Sterno Fishing kinda sucked, too.
 
1:45 PM
@RonanForman Lmao what?
 
It was disappointing to me that my first Torchlight character was hardcore, and I had no problem at all getting to about level 16 or so before getting bored and quitting
 
You could fish and you would get items,weapons,armors and fish that transforms your pet into different monster.
 
gear seemed kind of uninspired and the game wasn't very difficult
 
That's what i loved about Fate and what Torchlight failed to copy
In Torchlight you can only get fish and gems by fishing mostly
 
@ChrisHateZ I can't remember what game it was, but you caught fish with gems inside and such, so it'd say "you caught a fish with a gem inside", it's also say "you caught a fish with a carp inside"
 
1:46 PM
While in fate you can get Gold named weapons and armor
 
@Sterno If you played it on the harder difficulties some parts got really hard... but with no real gain, cept for difficulty
 
@Krazer I played on whatever the hardest difficulty you could start the game with was. Not sure if you could unlock even harder once you'd beat it or something
 
@RonanForman I think fish inside fish were fish the player could use and regular fish was for your pet
 
@fae I suppose
 
FAE
@RavenDreamer No idea what you're referring to
 
1:48 PM
@FAE this
 
FAE
@RavenDreamer ah
 
contest winner emails go out yet?
 
Btw Torchlight 2 will have outdoors fight,so battling wont be dungeon-only.
 
@Sterno The developers said that they recommend playing on Hard difficulty your first time through, if you are an experienced player. Normal and Easy are just too easy...
@StrixVaria I too will share this fate.
 
> your first time through, if you are experienced
wat
 
1:52 PM
@badp first time playing the game, if you are a veteran of the genre
I'm probably haven't woken up yet
 
@Krazer isn't that a bad sign? "This game is exactly like others, so if you know how to play them this one's going to be just a long grind."
 
@badp I'm pretty sure that's not what they meant lol.
 
@badp I wouldn't say it's the opposite. If they know how things work, you can pick things up faster and will thus mow through faster on normal difficulties. The harder difficulites are just something to better pace veterans...
but I have to admit some parts are the game are so broken... like their secret "horse" level with level 5000 horses

Q: Minecraft VPN server problem

VifferI can make my own server and connect to it with ease, and my friend can do so likewise. However, I would like to join my friends server, but I cannot connect to his server but he can. If I have my server up and running while I try to connect to his, then I will be joining my own multiserver inst...

 
Anyone else have an opinion on whether this should be closed?

Q: How can I automatically mine wood?

JeffreyIs there any way to go from wood blocks to items without manual intervention? I'd like to mine wood automatically without having to use my hands/tools.

 
2:00 PM
@murgatroid99 My opinion has already been expressed through either casting or not casting a close vote.
 
@Krazer It isn't Atlus localizing it, it's NISA. They tend to be more liberal in their localizations.
 
@FAE how are you this morning?
 
@skovacs1 given the amount of risque content, I'm pretty confident they will censor the game even if this game gets a M rating. (You'll know when you see the bath/hot springs mode)
 
@StrixVaria I just meant that there was disagreement in the comments and I wanted to know if anyone else disagreed with me
 
@Krazer That's disappointing, but I was referring more to cultural censorship. Nudity and exposed "humanity" is really whatever - it doesn't really add or subtract for me although I do hate to see content changed in way before I get the chance to see the original.
@Krazer As long as it doesn't make the game less fun or change the meaning in the narrative, I can probably live with it.
 
2:13 PM
@skovacs1 but in places like America... if it looks underage, certain groups will go on a parade...
 
"I like your christ. I do not like your Christians"
~Gandhi.
 
@RavenDreamer I prefer Jesus and his father were stand-up guys, its their fans I'm not too fond of...
 
FAE
@RavenDreamer Breathing
 
they also have to be one of the boring-est book clubs ever...
 
@FAE That's... good? But kind of mundane, all things considered.
I am glad you are breathing though.
You look much nicer when you're not blue in the face.
 
2:16 PM
@Krazer As far as Japanese video games, they've gotten through with a lot more of that stuff lately. The game likely won't get the hype it deserves and as such will probably slip under the radar. The activists tend to focus more on video game violence as meaningless as that sort of focus actually is.
@RavenDreamer I don't think it's entirely the Christians as much as the Christianity - institutionalization tends to bring out corruption because it lends it a place to hide. I've met my fair share of fanatics though and there are certain individual Christians who miss the point and go too far.
 
@skovacs1 The difference between Japan and the West is that Japan actually spends money advertising and promoting their works on a personal level, in the West, especially the US, it's like "oh it's from Japan, Japanese stuff is cool so this should sell well (because it sold well in Japan, etc.)"
 
FAE
@RavenDreamer It's my way of saying that I'm not having a good day or a bad day yet, just kind of existing
 
@skovacs1 Christianity has become more of a lifestyle than a religion Dx
 
@Krazer Yeah. I don't think it's quite that blazé an attitude, but I don't think I've seen many midnight launches of JP titles in my years so I wouldn't say you're wrong. Final Fantasy, being more mainstream, is probably among the few that really get pushed.
 
@RavenDreamer Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww
 
2:24 PM
@Mana he's got quite a way with words, doesn't he?

Q: Minecraft XBOX Updates?

ErikDoes Mojang plan to update the XBOX version of Minecraft? Can we expect to see all the features in the PC/Mac version to appear on the XBOX version someday?

Q: A vassal declares war on my heir. What to do?

NixI have recently made my heir the ruler of a small county I recently conquered. Problem is, one of my other vassals suddenly declared war on my heir over his county! Most uncool. I've not yet given my heir any other titles, and since it is a small and recently conquered county, he can barely rais...

 
@skovacs1 with most games it's just about brand recognition. If you slap a CoD brand on a crappy iOS game, ppl will buy it because they "support" the brand and don't care about the quality... like CoD branded sunglasses...
 
@Krazer That depends on the particular section of Christianity. Christianity is a broad term for groups that believe in Christ and the holy trinity, etc. Certain groups of Christianity practice it more as a lifestyle and others tend to institutionalize it. In Roman Catholicism, practicing faith is one of duality, both worship in the church and living according to their beliefs as interpreted from the Bible - mostly be good to everyone and don't do bad stuff - are considered equally important.
 
@skovacs1 Whereas with Jehovah's Witnesses, they must cram their belief down everyone's throat.
 
@FAE Well I'll just have to come up with some sharky witticisms to brighten your mood.
 
2:32 PM
@fbueckert If you ask nicely they'll stop visiting. If not, call the cops.
 
@Krazer Each group thinks your request to leave you alone only applies to the group you requested it of.
 
FAE
@RavenDreamer What constitutes a "sharky" witticism?
 
It didn't help that I lived just down the street from one of their churches for a few years.
 
@FAE Can I get back to you on that? :P
It sounded appropriate
 
@FAE Some comeback that's layered with at least two statements that rip you to shreds. :P
 
FAE
2:36 PM
@RavenDreamer So now you're making offers you can't follow through on, I see how it is. ;_;
 
@RavenDreamer Some of the levels are pretty tricky to get perfects on
 
@BenBrocka Way to jump in 12 hours late! lol
 
@Krazer I've bought a few lemons to support a brand or genre so I can't dispute this point.
 
@FAE But...but...
 
2:38 PM
Just saw it in my inbox
 
@Mana Damn. I didn't win.
 
@Mana Egads. I think Lauren doesn't want me to win any more contests ever again.
 
@RavenDreamer Are you going to buy a copy?
 
FAE
@Mana Did they actually do public lists before?
 
No, they did not.
@Mana Debatingly.
 
FAE
2:40 PM
@RavenDreamer Kind of surprised about that
 
@RavenDreamer I'm gifting mine to either you or my girlfriend
 
@Mana ...are you coming on to me?
 
@fbueckert Jehovah's Witnesses practice a belief system which dictates in far more detail how to live their lives and in that sense, it is a lifestyle. There's a lot more to it and I have no desire to offend so I leave it there before words like "cult" or "cabal" start getting tossed around.
 
(Zing!)
 
Wow I won
tiddy tiddy tiddy
 
2:41 PM
@RavenDreamer No, I'm just blowing my load of cash on you because I know you'll ask a lot of questions.
 
@Mana Blowing your load you say?
 
FAE
@Wipqozn Waaaasn't gonna go there
 
@FAE Coward.
 
that was the joke...
sigh.
 
@Mana I'm aware.
 
FAE
2:44 PM
@Wipqozn The joke was already there :P
 
@FAE I think there's room under @Mana's money shower if you want to join me!
Come on and dance in the pennies!
 
@RavenDreamer 60000 pennies, to be precise.
 
You should get it converted into Zimbabwe dollars.
Then we could dance under 600000000000000000000000000 Zimbabwe dollars!
 
FAE
@RavenDreamer I'd really not like to get any of that in my eyes, thanks though!
 
@FAE I think your comment on wearing clothes knocked you up to most starred female on the brdige.
 
2:49 PM
Well, now to see if I win the mini-contest. My chances are not good, though.
 
@RavenDreamer It's not like there is much competition for that.
 
@RavenDreamer before the money expires!
 
@Wipqozn Mind your homonyms, sir!
 
I don't mind not winning the grant, I bought the game anyway, I rather win the mini-contest or the next game grant
 
@RavenDreamer I know I made a mistake, but It's too late to go back now.
 
2:51 PM
Look at your message, now look at me, now back to your message.
Bam! Your grammar has been ninja-fixed.
I'm a shark.
(Do do do doo do do dooo do)
 
FAE
@RavenDreamer That one's pretty mundane, I considered it just a simple statement of fact. o_O
 
@FAE Clearly you misunderstand the power of the word "naked"

@FAE Naked = stars

So I need help, people. I've got the next three days off work, and intend to become a Diablo III shut-in. I've been a productive working member of society for a while now, and I don't really know how to do this.
 
Admittedly, "naked" is less useful if you're old, fat, or male.

Q: Do Guild Wars 2 Beta characters carry over to the full release?

SirYakalotIf you play the beta will you be able to access your characters in the full game when released?

 
How do people who want to game for 72 hours straight do things like eating and such?
I don't even own sweatpants.
 
@RavenDreamer Two out of three ain't bad
 
@IanPugsley avoid sunlight.
 
@IanPugsley Get food prepared. All your meals. Get some gym shorts
 
FAE
2:53 PM
@IanPugsley I have a boyfriend that I make get me food
 
@IanPugsley Game nude. Pants are overrated.
 
@IanPugsley Keeping hydrated is the biggest thing
 
@IanPugsley Further, remove all external light sources
 
like, water. Drink lots of water.
 
@IanPugsley Normally you have a female who doesn't game who brings you food.
 
2:54 PM
@IanPugsley Coordinate with @spugsley?
 
Also, fresh fruit.
 
FAE
@Wipqozn >_>
 
@fredley I can't rely too much on her, I suspect her plans are similar
 
Man, I don't know how you youngin's do those marathons. I like my sleep.
 
Eat that instead of say candy or something
 
2:54 PM
@IanPugsley Energy drinks is a end of the line solution, don't drink them unless you know it is the last stretch of your gaming, have food prepared
 
@FAE or in your case a male.
 
@IanPugsley Hire the neighbor's kid
 
@IanPugsley Halve the required break-time by doing shifts
 
@IanPugsley You want your gaming area to be like a Vegas casino. You don't know what time it is, what it's doing outside, and prostitutes everywhere
4
 
FAE
@Wipqozn I don't think gender is pertinent here, is my point :P
 
2:55 PM
@tiddy I'll let @spugsley ask the "Can I sleep with prostitutes in Diablo III" questions
 
@tiddy What about the possibility (certainty?) of eventual, complete financial ruin?
 
@FAE That's sexist.
 
@fredley the RMAH doesn't launch until next weekend, so I think I'm okay
 
@fredley That's that the RMA is for
 
@Wipqozn No love for male-male relationships? Turtle, please.
 
2:56 PM
@fredley He's chosen his path
 
I'm done with work for today, cu at home people!
 
@RavenDreamer or the female-female.
so disappointed with Wipqozn right now.
 
@tiddy Naked, disconnected ruination by prostitutes?
 
oh wait
 
@Mana Unfortunately, I had a bad experience with a lesbian.
 
2:57 PM
Damn it. That sentence is really going to continue to bite me in the ass.
 
I'm always so disappointed with Wipqozn.
 
@fredley Indeed. Tears are the best lube anyway
 
And what about transgender individuals, @Wipqozn? HOW MANY PEOPLE CAN YOU HATE?
 
@tiddy Tears as in water or tears as in internal?
 
Oh wait, no no no. I never said anything about a relationship! I just said that a female should be waiting on someone. So my comment was sexist, anti-homosexuality, thank you very much.
 
2:58 PM
sad tears
 
@Mana I'm always disappointed with Wipqozn, but only sexually
2
 
HELLO BRIDGE
 
@fredley That's what SHE said! lolololol I'm so clever!.. wait...
 
FAE
@IanPugsley Trans individuals still fall into male or female
 
@fredley Oh, woah. Woah. Let me go get my fanfic notes.
 
2:59 PM
You chauvinistic turtle.
 
@Mana Turtle/Pork Chop
 
I hadn't even thought of this relationship as a thing.
wow.
