@gnomeslice: IT shouidl be upgraded with the new colour you sent me.
 
11:44 AM
Hm... Indie Game: The Movie released yesterday...
 
There was a 10% pre order discount. Though I suppose a rental from iTunes would still be more economical
 
Also... Aww... A mod edited my "everypony" message. =( That's censorship, man. The man is always bringin' me down.
 
Was it cheaper for the Kickstarter, hmmm?
 
@YiJiang Not sure. I know it was $8.99 if you pre-purchased on Steam. Now it's $9.99.

Q: Where to find Collectors Catalog?

DavidYellI've now completed the story in FF13-2 and am starting to get stuck into the 'extra' bits. It seems that I need two collectors catalog items to help me farm better items. I'd like to get them so I can farm lv4 bio monster mats quicker. I think you win it in Chocobo racing, but I've never seen i...

Q: Should I ever use buckshot?

VBwhatnowIn BF3 I always end up using the flechette ammo because it has a much longer effective range. It apparently has lower damage than buckshot but is always a one hit kill anyway. Why would I ever use Buck when I can have range and 1HK capability with flechette?

Q: Do I need to beat all the quests to go to the next difficulty?

HungerI got Diablo 3 recently and have played up to Act III. I was just invited to a game by my friend who is in Act IV. We beat a level in Act IV and now it seems it is unlocked for me to play and to progress further in. I can see the drawbacks of skipping quests, since I will be underleveled. Howev...

Aaaaaaaaagh. So I noticed a question with "Assassins Creed Brotherhood" in the title and was going to edit the apostrophe in, then noticed in the Related questions roughly 2 dozen other questions without the apostrophe in there...
 
@FAE haha, it's always pulling a thread when you find something like that!
 
FAE
@agent86 I don't know what to do! Should I leave it and let my brain tweak out or go through and slowly edit them...
 
next thing you know, it's 2 hours later and you're still fixing it :P
 
FAE
I think I might just make it a project over the next couple weeks or something... It just... it bugs me...
 
@FAE if it bugs you, I'd say edit it.
 
1:05 PM
@FAE but is it Assassins' Creed or Assassin's Creed?
 
Assassin's Creed is an award winning historical fiction action-adventure open world stealth video game series that as of 2012 consists of five main games and a number of supporting materials. The games have appeared on the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Microsoft Windows, Mac OS X, Nintendo DS, PlayStation Portable, iOS, HP webOS, Android, Nokia Symbian and Windows Phone platforms, with a PlayStation Vita on the way, and will be coming to the Wii U. The main games in the franchise were developed by Ubisoft Montreal, with the handheld titles developed by Gameloft and Gryptonite Studios, with ad...

@QAdp "Assassin's Creed"
 
The Creed of the One Assassin? Uh.
 
they've got a logo shot too, to back up their apostrophe
 
Okay.

Author Neal Stephenson wants to create a swordfighting game. With a separate peripheral even. Their goal is to make a game and release an SDK for other people to improve on. You guys gotta at least watch the first video.

Q: Mount and Blade Warband mod pack

DoomsknightI just started playing the game (single player), and really getting into it. But I'm not sure whether the game is worth playing through once first as is. Or by applying for example Floris Mod Packs and playing through it. It seems to be a collection of 72 mods or something. Would I be losing pl...

 
1:38 PM
is there anywhere in the Internet to see how many points do you need for each level in Super Paper Mario?
 
So, everyone, this new qaompany called Google recently released its new awesome tool: Google Search
 
@tiddy it'll never be as good as Altavista
 
@QAdp Shame there's nowhere you can ask for something like that.
 
@Fluttershy Not owning or playing the game it'd be weird to do so for me
I'm just watching it
 
1:41 PM
@QAdp Ahh, that makes sense.
 
@QAdp Y U NO PLAY?
 
@QAzer I don't have a Wiimote? or a Wii?
 
He just wants to sit back and watch while he drinks his QAoffee
 
@tiddy I'll accept this as the answer.
@QAdp that's just another excuse to get one.
 
'an-other'?
 
1:47 PM
Meh, the Wii U is coming soon
 
Does the Wii get games at Steam-like prices?
No? Then I'll pass tyvm
especially if the entry price is in the hundreds of euros which could buy me a hundred of Windows games instead
(well, okay, more like 30 to 60 depending on how many bundles come out)
 
morning all
 
@QAdp I just think it's better to play than to watch... you can rent if you you don't want to commit~
 
Arghhhh! Civ V y u no work right in DX10 mode!?
 
@Fluttershy DX9 work for you? I had that same issue, but i don't remember what fixed it
Oh yes now I remember, are you on windows 7?
 
1:59 PM
@Foxtrot DX9 works fine. But when I run it in DX10, I get really weird lines in the terrain.
 
@Fluttershy my fix was (running windows 7 x64) to change Civ V to run in combat ability mode: Windows Vista Service Pack 2
 
@Foxtrot That's what I did as well. But that's when the lines started showing up. Before that, I couldn't even launch in DX10.
 
o.O
I presume you have all the latest drivers and there are no complications with your hardware?
 
FAE
@Foxtrot He also only has like, Intel HD Integrated graphics in a laptop, so I'm assuming that the problem may lie there somewhere
 
-_-; @Fluttershy please tell me you have a dedicated graphics card?
Sidenote: is anyone here a fan of theOatmeal ? or do you remember FunnyJunk.com?

Ah beat me too it lol : haven't been on chat in a while.
@FAE turns out, that fundraiser is 100k+ right now
 
FAE
@Foxtrot Yeah, I saw, it's insane, haha
 
@Foxtrot My... laptop has Intel HD Integrated graphics... =(
 
@Foxtrot Oh, wow!
 
@Fluttershy lol...... If you were seriously wondering (insert fry futurama meme: not sure if getting trolled or..) Thats your problem.
 
2:17 PM
@Foxtrot It's good enough to run The Witcher, and other games on High settings, so it makes no sense to me that Civ V should have issues...
 
@YiJiang right?
@Fluttershy the 1 minute run down on civ 5 and your laptop (not trying to offend at all): Civ 5 is very cpu and graphic intensive in the DX10/11 option. The minimum video requirements for civ 5: Video: 256 MB ATI HD2600 XT or better, 256 MB nVidia 7900 GS or better, or Core i3 or better integrated graphics and the recommended is at least 512 dedicated video. I presume your laptop is experiencing a bottleneck when it comes to displaying & animating civ 5 in real time.
 
@Foxtrot When you say Core i3 integrated graphics... do you mean integrated graphics on a core i3 processor?
 
I think its not really fair (apples vs oranges) to compare a system's abilities to which game it can run well (above ~45 fps or so ) besides doing a benchmark (future mark, etc). I don't know if the saying i can run crisis @ X FPS still holds true lol.
@Fluttershy those are minimum requirements to run the game. Not to run the game well
 
@Foxtrot so if I'm running core i7 with integrated graphics? >.>
 
@Fluttershy When they say i3 presumably they're talking about the desktop version?
 
2:28 PM
@YiJiang No idea. Guess I'll just stick to DX9. =(
 
If that is the reason for your stuttering, that would be my best intuition. :/
 
oh, my macbook has integrated intel graphics and it chokes hard on Civ5
although it's several years old, so yours might be a different flavor
my other laptop's got a dedicated ATI GPU, and it chugs along at the lowest settings
 
Does anyone here have Fear 2 for the 360? ( looking for an achievement partner :) )
 
@agent86 But do you run it in DX9 or DX10/11?
 
@Fluttershy I think I run it on the dedicated GPU laptop in DX10/11. I have a desktop that has a nvidia 8800GT in it which I tend to think runs it better in DX9 mode.
on the macbook, there's no option, since there's no directx :P
 
2:31 PM
hrm... I guess I'm just gonna have to bite the bullet and build a computer when I get a source of income...
 
the macbook doesn't even render the text on the title screen properly. it plays civ4 pretty well though
I was pretty happy when they did that "steam play" thing and suddenly that machine had games :)
 
CivV issues? you aren't on a quad core are you?
I had terrible Civ V performance issues on a 2G quad (effectively a 1G duo, since only two cores are used). I upgraded to a 2.6G duo for ~$70 and no problems at all.
 
2:46 PM
Civ V also runs very different on different GPU manufacturors, it runs much faster on Nvida than on AMD. And Intel drivers have often been not so good for modern games.
 
yah, NVidia all the way.
 
psht coming from a Mad Scientist :P
 
so, yeah. remember the potato sack? the indie bundle that was part of the ARG for portal 2? it's baaaack...
 
awww fail. Do you need to Upload for gifs to display in chat?
 
2:51 PM
@Foxtrot it's complicated... I think you have to upload it, and then you can go back and edit it to add a reference to another post, but you can't add any other text
 
No need for uploading, something else broke your onebox
 
so @-style pings won't work, but clicking the little arrow will
 
hmm

I thought you may find that relevant to your interests

2:53 PM
@FAE indeed, this is always my experience! It has disappointed the kids on several occasions.
 
FAE
@agent86 :(
 
I must say that the experience with the PS3 is kind of poor when compared with what I typically get from my xbox. patching and downloads are way quicker on the XBL network, and there's no "installing" phase or long post-install patching to do.
it's possible that I'm Doing it Wrong, though :(
 
@FAE until you get the same error I do from time to time:
 
I guess mostly I didn't appreciate the Xbox experience until I went to the PC to play D3, and to my PS3 to play my PS+ games
 
I deal with it because I like the PS3 games
 
2:56 PM
@tiddy yeah, there's certainly unique experiences to be had.
 
FAE
@tiddy Yeah, I have a lot of games I like as well, it's just frustrating not to be able to pick up a game unless you know you have at least half an hour for potential updates.
 
Pretty much
 
Anyone know of any good co-op team based games that don't have excessive violence or stealing? I'm looking for 5-8 players.
 
FAE
@Kalamane Platform?
 
PC
 
3:00 PM
@Kalamane MMO?
 
FAE
@Kalamane What do you consider "excessive violence"?
 
@Kalamane Spiral Knights, perhaps?
(technically it's an MMO, and I don't know what the instance player limit is off the top of my head)
 
@FAE I would say Diablo 3 counts. LoL isn't quite there, but it's close.
 
@Kalamane WoW?
 
@FAE I want a game that promotes teamwork, but doesn't glamorize vicious behavior.
 
FAE
3:03 PM
@Kalamane That... may be tough...
 
@Foxtrot WoW's pretty good. So is Monster Hunter, but it's only 4 player.
 
@Kalamane I want to say Hello Kitty Online, so badly.
 
FAE
@Kalamane Also, you may want to check out Co-Optimus. It's a great site that reviews games based on co-op play. I'm not sure if they'll have enough detail about violence levels to satisfy you though.
 
Portal 2 is a perfect example of team based strategy, but it's only two player.
 
most co-op games I've seen are 2-4 players, aside from team-based FPS'es and MMO's
 
3:04 PM
@FAE Looking at Co-Optimus.
 
Minecraft adventure maps
 
it's hard to get a larger group of co-op players together at the same time, to be honest. really requires drop in/drop out style multiplayer
@Kalamane yeah, @YiJiang's suggestion reminds me of Terraria
 
@Kalamane but isn't the whole point of the game to hunt and cut up monster to make weapons out of their parts?
 
Jamestown has 4p local co-op multiplayer
 
@agent86 Terraria looks really good. Is it more than four player?
 
3:09 PM
how about dungeon defenders?
unsure of violence level/playercount
 
@Kalamane I've never played it multiplayer before... I don't know that there is a limit, although I think we used to have a server, so people like @Fluttershy would know better
 
@YiJiang Could you point me in the right direction of a good Minecraft adventure map? Some background: I'm hosting a guys night LAN party for the husbands during my wife's baby shower.
 
@DavidB I think DD'ers is 4-player, sadly
 
Dunno, you have to ask the people here that actually have Minecraft
 
@Kalamane Terraria is really fun. It's not as in-depth as Minecraft, and it does have an end-game point... sorta. But yes, you can play more than four players.
 
3:10 PM
> The default number of max players is 8 and can be changed during server start-up as well as within the server configuration file (serverconfig.txt).
@Kalamane, from the terraria wiki.
 
if I had a Lan party with 5-6 other people, I'd want to play Civ V... but that's not coop
 
I'd play SKyrim or FO3
 
@DavidB Violence level isn't terrible. I don't recall any blood in the game. It's mostly just cartoony violence.
 
thats... not multiplayer
 
@tiddy ... and just ignore everyone else? :P
 
3:15 PM
Hit 50. Still not halfway through with main or civil war quests
Yes
 
@agent86 Sounds like a plan :D

*golf clap*
 
I'm a little surprised how long it took for Civ V to be getting it's expansion packs. How long was it before Civ IV had expansions?
 
user30
how absolutely ridiculous
 
13 .app's
Also, it looks like the major cooperations are laying their hands on their trademarks
 
Does anyone else think that all these extra TLDs are just so Internic (or whoever controls the TLDs) can make more money?
 
user30
3:37 PM
Yes, that is the only purpose.
 
user30
Amazon appear to have applied for some 65 TLDs.
 
@fbueckert Of course, that's the stated purpose of these things
It's ICANN, by the way
> RIP dotRIP LIMITED
It looks like there are companies that formed just to take advantage of this
 
They offer no actual purpose, but companies must get them in order to prevent squatters from holding them for ransom.
 
user30
Yeah, you looked at the applicants for the .app ones?
 
user30
> Names that drew multiple applications, like .app and .web, will go to a resolution process that could involve an auction.
 
user30
3:39 PM
I mean what's the point?
 
@fbueckert Technically speaking there's a review process. The fees for just getting ICANN to consider the case is incredibly high, which is suppose to deter any frivolous applications
 
@YiJiang the first one was in less than a year after the game was released (oct->july) and the second about a year later.
 
@YiJiang So just buy a domain a company wants, and hold it for ransom at review process cost - $1. Easy money.
If this isn't ripe for abuse, I don't know what is.
 
user30
news.ycombinator.com/item?id=4105591 <- ah there we are, summary of a few larger tech companies
 
@fbueckert No, just applying for the domain name cost several hundred thousand dollars
 
3:41 PM
it will be about 2 years after Civ5 when the first expansion is released, although they've been taking more of a "little bits of DLC now and again" approach this time
 
The trick is buying a domain a company wants and it doesn't have
 
And if the application fails you lose all of the money
 
@YiJiang You mean the gTLD? I don't see any domain at all costing hundreds of thousands.
 
The TLD, yes, sorry
Somebody's even buying up .unicorn ;_;
Can we petition SE to buy that one instead?
 
The TLD opens it up for domains across the board, yes?
 
3:43 PM
Yup, any domain name with the TLD
 
So if .unicorn is approved, then anyone could get arqade.unicorn, right?
 
So of course the company that gets something hot, like say .app gets to charge for it
@fbueckert I'm quite sure the company has exclusive rights to it, I need to read up on how this will work exactly
 
@YiJiang Oh. Slightly different than expected, but still rife for abuse.
 
user30
Yeah as I understand it the company becomes the registrar for the TLD much like Nominet for UK, Verisign for .com/.org/.net etc
 
These new TLDs should be a complete non-starter. There's no point to any of it.
 
user30
3:45 PM
$$$$$$$
 
@ThomasMcDonald For ICANN. Tell me again why ICANN gets to control the internet?
 
Is the new font identification question on topic?
 
ICANN controls the doors
 
Any new TLDs that are created automatically add requirements for any reputable business to grab the domain for their company.
Artificially inflating the cost of doing business, for no other reason than ICANN wants more money
Having yet another domain adds no value to the company, so this is a sunk cost.
 
> Google created "Charleston Road Registry Inc." to apply for and/or run these TLDs.
That explains that name popping up everywhere on that list

Q: What is the font used in Heroes of Might and Magic 3?

Jane AdrienCould somebody let me know, what is this font?

 
As a sidenote, apparently Big Bang Theory is filming not too far from my workplace.
A co-worker went bonkers when they came in.
 
Huh, they're still going strong, eh?

> For those of you looking for a unique way to impress the Dad in your life this Father's Day, we bring you the ultimate Dad Food experience - The Daddy Cut Pizza. This pizza comes with one giant slice for Dad, and 6 regular sized slices for the rest of the family.
finally, being a dad pays off.
 
@agent86 I thought being a dad paid off in more than getting a bigger piece of pizza. If that's the only advantage, you're better off not being a dad!
 
3:56 PM
@fbueckert if there's a bigger pay-off than a gigantic slice of pizza, I haven't found it, and it must be pretty darned good to beat that. :P
 
@agent86 I think once your kids get older, they start getting you stuff for Father's Day.
We kept getting tools for mine. Dad's got a ton of tools now.
Oh, and I tried this:

A: Is there a way to cancel an auction in the auction house, or change the buyout price?

KoochiYes there is actually a way to cancel auction early. What you need to do is have the auctions page open showing the current auctions you have posted up. Then you need to go to your system tray in the bottom right and double click the time. From here go to the calendar and set the day back roughly...

And yes, you get a button. Pressing the button, however, creates an error.
 
@agent86 Yeah, but then you get daughters and then things turn out like this.
 
So, unless they patched out this exploit, this is no longer correct.
 
@fbueckert They definitely patched this. It's been a few days now
 
@YiJiang Was this in patch notes anywhere?
 
4:01 PM
@Lazers It's not just that the question is useless, but the font looks quite generic. Blowing it up and passing it through WhatTheFont produced a bunch of useless results because the image size is tiny
 
I'm reading backscroll, and you people who say Act 3 Inferno is easier than Act 2 are crazy
Also, newborns are hard work
 
@Sterno I know. I don't know how they get that idea into their heads.
@Sterno No wonder you haven't been on Diablo 3 :(
 
I can steamroll act 2 elite packs (mostly) now, but even white mobs are a problem in act 3
Yeah, the kiddo was born late Sunday night. Just got home last night. Had about 8 hours of sleep total in 3 days. I think my wife has had about 5
Even thinking of trying to play D3 hurts
 
I can steamroll Act 1 elite packs and I'm working my way through Act 2. I can tank well enough that someone with DPS in a group with me makes short work of them, but I can't handle them all by my lonesome. Act 3 elites instakill me.
 
@StrixVaria which class?
 
4:12 PM
Monk.
 
@Sterno I'm working my way through Act 2 now. I managed to solo Belial, but I still can't begin Act 3. Stupid Blizzard and removing the ability to skip quests.
 
Act 2 was really weird for me... I went from getting crushed to basically facetanking Belial. The only time I ever dodge anything in that fight now is when he does his explosions in phase 3
700 life on hit made a big difference
 
@Sterno It really does.
 
For act 3 I don't think life on hit will do it though
I'm at like 9.5k armor and 900 resists, and some of those white mobs still hit me for 6-8k after damage reduction
 
@Sterno You'll probably need more than 700 for it to function effectively.
 
4:14 PM
particularly right after ghom
 
@Wipqozn I need to re-download it, I presume? How do I remove the current one?
@QAzer Yeah, that looks pretty good, actually.
 
At the part where you need to kill the 3 catapults and the ballista
 
@Sterno With warcry or before?
 
with
 
Hm. If I have a barb warcrying me my armor is ~7000 but my resists are almost 1000 each.
 
4:16 PM
looking forward to whenever the gear drops change
(maybe they have already?)
 
Yes, 1.0.3 is going to be the best.
 
I've done probably 25 belial runs in act 2 and just am not getting upgrades
 
You should do Ghom runs.
If you can manage that...
 
It'd be hit and miss
 
@StrixVaria Yes. It will mean that Act 2 is no longer "Hi, I see you're melee! roflstomp"
 
4:17 PM
I've had a 5 stack at that point, but it means getting lucky with the type of elite packs that spawn
 
@fbueckert I'm actually more excited about the better drops overall than the toned back difficulty.
 
I still say the blacksmith should be upgraded to allow you to improve existing item stats.
 
My WD is still at the point where the best thing to do is Warden/Butcher runs, so the chance of getting top tier gear there will make it more worthwhile.
My Monk needs to gear up a bit more so I can start steamrolling Act 2 instead of just getting by.
 
@StrixVaria That, too. Chance of better gear is always a good thing.
The blacksmith also needs to be able to craft ilvl 63 gear. Otherwise, he's completely useless.
 
I need to get another character to 60 so I can keep running Act 1 as my Monk and WD progress :P

Q: Show the mob health in the multiplayer mode

ShamaokeAre there any mods which can be used to show health of mobs in Minecaft? I tried to use Mob Health Bar and Show Health but they don't work in the multiplayer mode. I also installed the MobHealth bukkit plugin but it's useless since it shows health in the chat bar but not under mobs heads.

 
I can't play the same character nonstop. I need to keep changing it up.
 
Hmm, a 10% voucher code from GMG with a survey
I've got one here, not sure if anybody wants it. It's valid till the 1st of July
 
@StrixVaria Usually I need to, too. But for some reason, I enjoy playing my monk, even when getting roflstomped.
 
My Demon Hunter got to 39 or 40 last night. He's not too far off.
 
GESTU-REOFT-HANKS
I'll just leave this here. I can't be arsed to find somewhere to copy it down anyway
 
4:23 PM
@StrixVaria You should try Hack, Slash, Loot, you can set it to give you a random character every time you play it.
 
@GraceNote yeah, my youngest is a girl. I am so hosed :(
 
@agent86 You do realize that it's your responsibility as a father to spoil her like this, right? She'd better get the fancy hat, too
 
@fbueckert yeah, they get me a nice card, but rarely is it covered in cheese, tomato sauce, and pepperoni :(
@GraceNote but... my fancy hat budget can't contain that fancy of a hat :(
 
@agent86 Do you want that "World's Best Dad" Mug to be a lie!?
 
@GraceNote OMG NO
did all of you diablo-ers see this: us.battle.net/d3/en/forum/topic/5795159597?page=1 - limiting the number of games you can create in a given period of time?
 
4:29 PM
@agent86 Good. Anything that stops botters is handy.
 
@agent86 I like all the people complaining that they didn't tell them specifically what the interval was, when the whole point was that if you're an actual person you shouldn't run into it.
 
You know who I miss who I think would make a worthy addition to the Bridge?
Ronnie.
Why are we talking about world's best dads and intervals and useless stuff like that when we can strive to become pro at everything?
I think with the change of our brand name to Arqade, we need a mascot befitting our gamer image, and what better mascot than Ronnie?
 
We were talking briefly about him earlier before the RPG Town Hall, actually.
 
@Mana Who is that?
 
@GnomeSlice Ronnie has transcended your standard human terms of "is" and "isn't".
Transcended to the next plane of existence by becoming pro at life.
We can only follow his example.
 
4:36 PM
@GnomeSlice pro much
 
@YiJiang I don't get where all this Ronnie shit came from, who is it?
 
@GnomeSlice Wait, you don't remember the last elections?
 
@Mana I remember everyone talking about someone called 'Ronnie'.
 
You must be new here, Mr. GnomeSlice
 
4:38 PM
@StrixVaria yeah, I worry about the interval a bit, because I know when I was farming the bits for the staff of herding I jumped into and out of games quite a lot in a short period of time.
 
Just you wait guys. RONNIE 2013 is going to be the next big wave.
 
It's ronnie, by the way. Small r. You cannot be pro if you can use the shift key
 
@YiJiang damn it
 
@Mana mana pls
 
@GnomeSlice: You will need to re-download the script. I'm not certain if you'll need to delete the old one or not. I'm not familiar with Chrome. I'd suggest googling "Chrome Extensions" or something like that.

@Wipqozn Link?
@Wipqozn Also, can you get it to affect all of the site rooms on gaming, and not just the bridge?
 
@Mana I will pay you to constantly edit all of @Wipqozn's instaces of "tortoise" to "turtle"
 
@OrigamiRobot you would pay me to abuse my powers? Ooh, that's tempting.
 
I wonder if the site would be better if it was called The Arqade
 
I just realized that stuff like arqade.com/q/38543 works. Our URLs are no longer obtuse!
 
@Mana PLus, you get to make @Wipqozn angry. Everyone wins.

That word doesn't mean what I thought that it meant.
 
Stupid? Dumb?
 
@YiJiang I think it would be better if it was called any number of other things.
 
@Mana W.T.F. Really?
 
@fbueckert pro much?
 
@Mana In that context, not pro at all.

ronnie's actions transcend conventional logic. you need to open your mind @fbueckert.
 
That was painful to type out on a cellphone. The autocorrect keeps fighting me
 
@fbueckert his nomination was kind of a running gag, although for a time it looked like having that in there was going to force primaries where we wouldn't need them otherwise.
 
Turgid works there.
Our URLs are no longer turgid!

@agent86 Running gag sounds right. His comments on that post are legendarily awful.
 
I don't think so
What's wrong with obtuse anyway?
 
@YiJiang It means blunt.
I meant too big.
 
@fbueckert yeah, I think he just ran as a lark. the rep requirements are relatively low, and I think he managed to get most of the rep because of a particularly poorly written answer that got cleaned up heavily.
anyhow, that's the backstory.
 
@agent86 I'm almost scared to go find that answer.
