I want to convert a city to my religion, and it already has some followers of other religions. What is the process I need to take to convert it to my religion?
Do I need inquisitors?
Do I need missionaries?
Do I need inquisitors and then missionaries, or missionaries and then inquisitors?

@Fluttershy nice. I kind of expected that if you were at the point of doing that much overkill, it was probably because the damage wasn't killing them for some reason
@murgatroid99 I just wasn't attacking. I had a 6/6 with Landfall that let me put a 4/4 in when I played a land... And I could draw 3 cards due to other creatures. Then I had a 37/37 out there... And a bunch of other stuff. <.<
Since the original goal of BOI is to defeat mom, if you defeat her does that count as finishing the game? Since there are bosses after Mom. Also, to be "finished" does one have to have all the characters and items?
I'm considering trying out a melee wizard build for Inferno (now that monsters in acts 3/4 don't hit quite as massively!) but was wondering one thing...
I know that Lifesteal (weapons with 2.5% damage turned into life) gets an 80% penalty (IE. it's only 20% effective) in inferno difficulty to cu...

@spugsley 'We have determined that drop rates of 1 rare per elite after getting 5 stacks, are too high and will decrease your fun as items become too common. To maintain the excitement of hunting for rare items, we are adding a new enrage timer (random_disconnect) if you take too long to get the Nephalem Valor buffs'
One of my friends told me that there would be a way to make Curly Brace survive the fight at the core.
Is there a way, or my friend is telling me lies?
EDIT: Should also specify that I play the original version (free from Cavestory.org)
@Sterno SciFi I assume the classics (Asimov, Clarke) are already done? If not, def. Foundation & Rama series both. Would help to know other scifi/fantasy series or authors that you have read already
I've read a lot of Gibson, Stephenson, and Orson Scott Card as far as sci-fi goes. Fantasy is Game of Thrones series, Wheel of Time, some stuff by Brandon Sanderson
And somewhere in the middle of those, Dresden Files. Because those books rock. And some other Jim Butcher stuff
I mean, I've read other stuff too, but those are the ones that come to mind atm
I tend to not enjoy the more "classic" sci-fi stories. They always come off a little too stuffy for me
Piers Anthony's Xanth series (atleast the first 10-15 of them) are also entertaining. Just expect a nice setting & ideas rather than storytelling, he falls a bit short in that dept imho.
@Sterno You do know that you can email any PDF of ringworld to your Kindle email so it shows up there right?
Hmm Discworld & Xanth are both basically fantasy not scifi; I'm assuming that is also an interest - but really worth reading the first book of each to see if you like them.
@agent86 From what I've gathered the largest difference is that merc uses multiple commands whihc do one thing, whereas git has fewer commands which do a lot more.
@Wipqozn in my experience, it's the other way around. mercurial is more streamlined, and a bit better planned, fewer commands and so forth. git is more of a mess of options and hacks, duct taped together
I've been deciding between both for awhile, and finally decided on merc for a few reasons (one of which is that it's apparently more compatible with windows)
@Wipqozn for my own projects, I'm more interested in the hosting than the day-to-day pain of managing the version control (my version control's not that complex anyhow) so I use git. if I had my druthers, I'd probably prefer hg though.
I'm pretty sure there are hg extensions that let you interface with git repos, so you could probably use github for hosting if you really wanted to either way.
The pull request stuff that github does, though… man, it's great. It's like a nerd Facebook, except instead of liking things and posting pictures of our kids that nobody cares about, we fix bugs and upload code nobody cares about.
The social-ness of Github alone is one big reason to go with git.
Google Code angers me so greatly, if only for the reason that my email in the top bar is inexplicably not a link to my profile (and there's no separate link) when I go to code.google.com
If you're just using it for your own projects and don't plan on collaborating with anyone, just flip a coin and try either one. You'll get a feel for what you like better.
All the XP you earn contributes to the guild level, up to a certain cap per day. So the most effective way to level up your guild is to invite as many people as possible.
To be fair though, some of the guild benefits are pretty great. Faster rep gain, cheaper repairs, more shinies from resource nodes, more XP
Just join whatever random max-level guild has a name that strikes your fancy, turn off guild chat, and reap the benefits
The easiest way that I know of is to use a cracked client. That way you can easily change your username and keep track of different usernames that you have used on different servers.
Should we keep this, or should I flag it for deletion.
On a tangentially related note, did any of you ever play 'the penis game' when you were younger, where you and a bunch of idiots competed to see who could say the word 'Penis' the loudest in a public area?
I've got Elder Sign: Omens for the iPad and after resigning my first game halfway through I've won the next six, five of which were on the so-called "hard" difficulty, and all of which were with a random four person party. I was very disappointed that the Azathoth game was basically the same as t...
It has to be all in one map. It's a very hard achievement on steam I believe only 0.2 players have it. It helps to have a friend kill the anyone who isn't an fbi agent
0.2 players - how many fractional video game players are there in the world?
About a month ago, we rolled out a new feature: instant self-answered questions.
So far, the reception has been mostly positive, and I've definitely seen some really good stuff posted in this form.
But I've also seen something else, a side-effect you may have seen discussed here on MSO:

Can you help us? We're trying to create a LAN game from the latest snapshot of Minecraft. While in-game on my single player map, I selected "Open to LAN" but instead of giving me the LAN IP or my laptop's name, it gave me "localhost:12345" where 12345 is a random port. My brother is on Windows 7 ...
