user2334

@Lazers Dupe-y dupe

My thanks @QAdp I figured Rapid-QA is a good thing.

oh, that works too!

nicely crafted.

I do miss the black background of the old site, the blue is sorta loud when I'm at work.

12:11 AM

I'm taking bets how long it'll take before @QAdp goes insane and remaps character-build to qaracter-build

@CruelQAw I give it 5 minutes.

@RapidQA Seen this? meta.gaming.stackexchange.com/a/4867/9196

@CruelQAw Man, that Wipqozn guy is so awesome. Handsome too.

user2334

@Wipqozn Every Adam Sandler movie except for maybe Punch Drunk Love: "Hi I'm Adam Sandler, everybody loves me and I can't do anything wrong, but there's a one-dimensional villain character who's envious of my popularity and tries to screw me over. Also, I get the girl who only lives to be mine."

12:12 AM

@CruelQAw i.qkme.me/32bu.jpg

@RapidQA That only applies to chat though.

I could easily whip one up for the main site too though.

@Wipqozn hah, I was thinking the same

I've never written anything like it, so I was off to google

@Wipqozn ...what?

@MarkTrapp I don't think that applies to 'Click' or '50 first dates'.

user15026

Apparently Burger King is going to have a bacon sundae.

FAE

12:18 AM

@AshleyNunn I'm... I'm torn between delicious or scary

user2334

@GnomeSlice Haven't seen either, but the setup for "Click" on Wikipedia is "Michael Newman (Adam Sandler), an architect, is married to his longtime sweetheart Donna (Kate Beckinsale) with two children, Ben and Samantha. Michael is easily pushed around by his overbearing boss Mr. Ammer (David Hasselhoff). On numerous occasions, Michael willingly sacrifices time with his family to work so he can give them the kinds of possessions he never had." Which sounds exactly like every other Adam Sandler movie

@GnomeSlice The script I linked to in my question will modify the colours of chat for you, closer to the old colours.

@Wipqozn 'greasemonkey'?

user15026

@FAE I would try it once, I think.

user2334

Adam Sandler has the perfect family and Kate Beckinsale is his wife? Yeah okay, it's totally not another Adam Sandler wish fulfillment fantasy movie

12:19 AM

@GnomeSlice chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/…

@MarkTrapp Not really. He gets a remote control in Click that allows him to manipulate time, the thing with his boss is just setting.

I haven't actually tested it on Chrome,but it should work.

Still bashing my head the brick wall called Belial. Any chance I can get anyone to help out?

@Wipqozn I'm on chrome, seems fine

@fbueckert I don't think I'd be any help

@RapidQA Excellent.

12:20 AM

The film is actually mostly about him coming to the realization that all of the things he'd been skipping with his control (which eventually sticks on forward) were really important to his life.

user2334

@GnomeSlice Exactly like every other Adam Sandler movie

@MarkTrapp Oh, okay, then nevermind.

Well, I still dunno about 50 first dates.

Although he does get the girl eventually.

That movie was heartwarming.

@Wipqozn This isn't going to work, I can't load the Chrome store.

But thanks for trying.

@GnomeSlice If you want the extension you can just click the link http://meta.gaming.stackexchange.com/a/4867/3015
Chrome automagically installs it as an extension

(the link in that link I mean)

Oh... it worked without the tampermonkey thing.

@Wipqozn Did you make this?

@GnomeSlice Yes.

12:26 AM

@Wipqozn You forgot the scan lines, but this is still better. Thanks.

Holy spikey damage batman.

@GnomeSlice I don't have the original image, so I can't include them.

Well, I think my work here is done. tortoise shades. Time for me to head off, and save another village from destruction. tortoise swoosh

@Wipqozn ^

Oh balls, did I miss him.

I think he might have swooshed before he saw it.

No.

I can add the ban gnomeslice button if you want :/

Although I don't see how that would solve the lines issue.

@Wipqozn You could use the background image from the current meta design.

I think it's the same thing.

As far as I'm concerned, this is magic.

Hm... I don't see an image for it. Maybe it was done with CSS?

Unless it's this:

Which it is.

@Wipqozn ^ ^

12:33 AM

hm, that's a good idea actually.

@Wipqozn Also, I didn't need the tampermonkey extension. Is that supposed to happen?

@Wipqozn I do have them from time to time, you know.

user15026

@GnomeSlice What browser are you using?

Chrome just uses Greasemonkey scripts as extensions afaik so that's normal

@RapidQA this

I don't use chrome, so I was unaware.

user15026

@RapidQA Yeah, that is what I was going to point out.

user15026

@fbueckert Not sure what this means, but congrats because it sounds hard.

@Wipqozn Also, your link text colour is slightly too bright a green, I think.

Q: Is there a mod or software that lets you reload map chunks to their original state in SMP?

One of the frustrating things about working with server mods is that if a mod updates with a new feature that requires you to find something that spawns, you won't be able to find it in any of the chunks that have been saved in the world. If you are on an SMP server that gets a lot of use, you re...

Well, then. Super congrats :D cupcakes, because cupcakes are for every celebration

Anyone excited for the Civ 5 expansion?

@AshleyNunn chocolate cupcakes?

user15026

12:38 AM

@fbueckert Your cupcakes, your celebration, your choice.

Yay!

user15026

@fbueckert What sort of frosting?

@AshleyNunn Chocolate, of course. Me likes me my chocolate.

user15026

@fbueckert Sprinkles, or no?

Yes! Colorful ones!

user15026

12:40 AM

@fbueckert I like you, you have good taste in cupcakes.

@GnomeSlice It's now updated with the lines.

@AshleyNunn Did I mention I have a massive sweet tooth?

@GnomeSlice: An image with the old link colour would work great. I'm leaving now though, so ping me with said image if you find it.

tortoise swoosh

user15026

@fbueckert I would bake you all the things. I need more people like that in my life.

@Wipqozn I'll find one, and give you the hex code.

12:41 AM

@AshleyNunn I also have a metabolism that doesn't let me gain weight. :P

Does anyone remember if the link colour in the old chat was the same as the old link colour on the site?

I'm trying to think of a specific instance in the chat where an image was posted of the chat with a link in it somewhere.

So I can search it.

user15026

@fbueckert Oooh, so I could just bake ALL THE THINGS. This is dangerous knowledge. You don't live anywhere near me, do you? Because if you did there might be surprise brownies on your doorstep or something.

@AshleyNunn Winnipeg. :P

user15026

@fbueckert Yeah, that's a little far....

@GnomeSlice Can't you check Wipqozn's plugin?

user15026

12:47 AM

Problem is, single!me doesn't like to bake, because roommate doesn't eat sweets and then I eat a whole pan of brownies, and I do not have a good metabolism.

@GnomeSlice Here it is with Wipqozn's plug-in.

@AshleyNunn I'm also a BIG fan of breakfasts. Eggs and bacon and sausage and ham and hashbrowns...mmmm.

@UQAllulloo That's the point, his link colour is off a bit.

We're trying to find a screenshot of the old chat so he can get a more accurate colour.

user15026

@fbueckert Breakfast food is the best food. Unrelated, do you have Steam, and would it be creepy if I added you?

Point being, I eat lots of fatty foods, and it does nothing!

12:50 AM

@GnomeSlice Ah

Is it appropriate to ask about specific questions from meta here?

@ElephantHunter Sure.

JamesCW

@AshleyNunn One of my coworkers has a rule: if the restaurant is serving breakfast, you have to order it

user15026

@JamesCW BEST RULE

@AshleyNunn Unrelated? :P

user15026

12:51 AM

@fbueckert Unrelated to the breakfast talking

Grab fast. Then I remove from chat.

HAH I FOUND ONE

I AM THE GOD OF SE CHAT-SEARCHING.

ANOTHER, BETTER ONE.

user15026

@fbueckert Grabbed

In particular, I have a reply to a question, but I want to know if my answer is reasonable and/or correct. I'm sure you guys have more experience with this stuff...

Now, that's unvisited link colour though, right?

Erg, that last image is... unflattering.

12:53 AM

@GnomeSlice nice sample data :)

@ElephantHunter Eh, you takes what you can gets.

Man, I am so good at this chat-search thing.

That's probably enough.

Actually, the first one would have been enough.

@GnomeSlice How are you finding those images?

@ElephantHunter Heeheehee.

insert coin

user15026

@fbueckert crap, I wasn't signed in, so the link broke :(

12:56 AM

@ElephantHunter I can't find any more right now, anyway.

ah, good, nothing important has changed.

@ElephantHunter WOULDN'T YOU LIKE TO KNOW.

user15026

Apparently today is "sign me out of everything I asked not to be signed out of day"

user15026

@fbueckert Yeah, that's not working. Tells me page not found.

user15026

ARGH STEAM

12:57 AM

@GnomeSlice Do you have the visited colors?

@AshleyNunn I get a login screen...let's see if I can even remember my password.

user15026

@fbueckert Good luck!

These are different

@QAshleyNunn >.>

@AshleyNunn Remove the word "home" steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561197998418924

@UQAllulloo Unfortunately, no. Well, not sure, does chat even show visited colours? I don't think it does.

12:59 AM

@ElephantHunter Derp. Should've done that.

user15026

@ElephantHunter I tried that, it didn't work :(

@GnomeSlice Not on the side bar, but in the main chat it does.

@UQAllulloo Hah, you had one lying around?

Odd... working for me

@GnomeSlice No, I was searching

12:59 AM

@UQAllulloo How'd you find that one?

Someone post a link to somewhere I haven't been.

user15026

@fbueckert Worked now. Chrome crapped itself and restarted and now I found you.

@GnomeSlice I remembered that I posted right before because Grace pointed out that my email address was in it.

Like, right now.

So I searched for that.

@UQAllulloo post a link

1:01 AM

Mar 2 at 0:06, by Grace Note

@Ullallulloo (I do want to say, by the way, that your email address is visible in that image).

Link colour didn't change when I visited that just now.

@AshleyNunn Never mind the screen name. There's a story behind it. And it's unique.

user15026

@fbueckert Oh, pfft, if I ever explained the origins of "Araleith", you would feel better.

google.ca

So it doesn't.

...First champion pack I run into in Act 3, and it's Fast Vortex Arcane Enchanted Plagued. Bah.

@Wipqozn ^ Link Text Colour ^

user15026

@fbueckert That is a lot of adjectives

^ Image for the scan lines in the chat footer bar ^

Or close enough, anyway.

@AshleyNunn And all of them spell death for melee.

user15026

@fbueckert Boooooo

Huh... I can't access the image for the footer bar in the chat.

Anyone know how tall it is?

user15026

1:10 AM

I love how I never get far enough in Desktop DUngeons to appreciate the changes they are constantly making, but I get excited reading about them.

A: The Memes of Gaming.StackExchange and its Chat

0

Meme: QA Originator: The love of puns. Cultural Height: June 12th, when the site name 'Arqade' and new design were published. Background: Badp thought he was being oh, so clever. Now look what you've done. Half the chat has changed their name to include 'QA' in it somewhere.

@GnomeSlice The background image?

@TimStone For the footer bar in the chat, yes.

i.e. the scan lines.

@TimStone That's from the site meta.

It's taller. Unless they used the same image, not sure if being too tall would affect it in any way.

1:12 AM

It's the same image, then.

I took that one from chat.

@TimStone That's because I posted it in the chat.

Notice that it's black and not blue?

Hunger

So is this site going to become something like "Arqade.com" or is it going to keep redirecting me to "gaming.stackexchange.com?"

So yeah, it is still the same image. I can't figure out how to get to the footer image.

@GnomeSlice ...No, I literally switched tabs and took it from the footer in chat. :P

@TimStone No, I tried that. It's showing up in the chat because I posted it in the chat a little while ago.

Look at it, it's not blue.

1:14 AM

The one I uploaded is definitely not blue

@TimStone Correct. The chat is blue now, so if you'd taken it from the chat, it should be blue.

You just accidentally grabbed the one I oneboxed.

No...

I have another tab open that has the original footer image cached.

@TimStone ...refresh your chat.

I switched to that tab, and took that image.

@TimStone I'm still thinking it took it from my onebox, but maybe not.

1:15 AM

Believe me, I am 100% sure on this.

Woo, the RMAH is online! Time to cash in!

@Hunger redirect.

@Brant $$$

@TimStone I believe you.

So yeah, I guess they just used the same image then, even though it's too tall.

Anyone else feeling a little blue today...

1:18 AM

@Ktash Yes. The site.

Cripes, Blizzard takes a 15% cut. That's going to make arbitrage a pain in the ass.

The pun. It had to be done.

user15026

@Ktash facepalm

A duck walks into a bar and tells the bartender to give him a drink. The bartender looks at him and asks him how he expects to pay...
The duck slaps him across the face and says "unforgivable".

apparently my links are not working...

user15026

I am so confused.

1:24 AM

Just shake your head and have some candy.

^ Probably the wisest solution lol

it was a poorly executed joke

user15026

@TimStone NO MORE CANDY MY TONGUE IS RAAAAW

Cupcake time, then!

Peanut Butter Bars ftw

user15026

Yes, cupcakes are a good idea

1:26 AM

user15026

@OrigamiRobot grumpface

@AshleyNunn But it's delicious

user15026

@OrigamiRobot But it huuuuuurts

@AshleyNunn That's just your brain demanding moar

@OrigamiRobot Blood does not go with candy.

Q: "Crop Dusting" Achievement as a melee class?

2

The acheivement in question involves killing Ghom, Lord of Gluttony (in act III) without getting hit by his gas attack. Ghom uses this area of effect gas attack in melee a lot, and I don't seem to be able to predict when or how often he will use it. This makes avoiding the attack as a melee cha...

@AshleyNunn but wait... there's more.

@Fluttershy nope, can't do a cake, sorry :(

On a related note, comeovertothedarksidewehavecandy.com is disappointing

@AshleyNunn Maybe you should have less evil requirements for yours :P

user15026

@OrigamiRobot Um...or I could just eat it all.

@AshleyNunn Then don't be offended when there's none for me!

user15026

@OrigamiRobot I can't hear you over the sound of me eating cookies.

I'd like to see someone do this cake for a wedding or some other occasion. It doesn't have to be to scale though...

user15026

2:12 AM

@Krazer It would take a lot of time, but it is theoretically accomplishable. I would just need time, money, and a bigger kitchen, and a reason to maek it.

@AshleyNunn I've always considered that the ultimate super mario cake, but this comes close.

user15026

@Krazer Yeah, that cake always blows my mind.
