HI CHAT.

Hey

Q: Can I open the doors that won't budge?

0

I just beat the first level of Dark Quest and ran across two doors that I couldn't open. When I tried it said "It won't budge". Is there any way to open these doors?

Q: Are there mannequins in the game?

Can you add mannequins to your dimension like in Skyrim to your House? Would be a really welcome addition to my dimension.

Q: What triggers a roll of fate?

While wandering the first level of the dungeon in Dark Quest it would occasionally make me make a roll of fate. These had negative consequences on all but one roll. Are the triggers for these rolls completely random (such as a x% chance per turn) or was it based on some actions I took or squares ...

Today is Wednesday right?

Indeed

@OrigamiRobot Well fuck. It feels like Thursday. Why is this week not over. :(

@WorldEngineer YAY!

@WorldEngineer :o

user20683

Yay for perfect out of context statement

user20683

then set up animation cycles and then set up the scene

user20683

then render it for about twelve hours (my estimation) and done.

@WorldEngineer Kinky.

user20683

@LessPop_MoreFizz given the models involved...yeah...just yeah...

@fredley @kalina You guys realize that within the last month one of your schools banned granola bars for being too pointy, right?

Is that the flapjack ban?

Ullallulloo

@YiJiang'sEvilClone Yeah.

Ullallulloo

"flapjacks"

1:44 AM

That is officially Money as of 6 months from now.

@LessPop_MoreFizz I assume the giant 100 in that image is actually holographic or something and won't look as horrible on the actual thing?

@YiJiang'sEvilClone Probably foil inlay

So, shiny.

I LOVE SHINY THINGS

@spugsley Well you're in luck, because your money is about to get shinier!

(Also, much uglier.)

user20683

@LessPop_MoreFizz it will look like other countries' money

1:53 AM

@LessPop_MoreFizz This is officially money as of 6 days from now.

@WorldEngineer i.e. ugly.

MBraedley

@LessPop_MoreFizz Are you guys still printing money on cotton paper? That's so last millennium.

@MBraedley THIS IS MERICA WE DO WHAT WE WANT

obviously. That's why we have so many shitty people

2:08 AM

Anyone know if YouTube has a thing to always start video at the highest quality? I'm tired of clicking 1080p on every video. =\

@MBraedley It's Linen goddamnit.

Nevermind!

@Fluttershy I think you can append the hd=1 query parameter

I found it. >_> It's amazing what one can learn when looking in the "Settings" menu.

Q: How does the campaign scoring system work?

0

At the end of each campaign mission, you get to see the statistics screen, which includes a cumulative score and a rank. How is the score calculated and how does it affect the rank?

@agent86 that is pretty much how it would go when I played

@agent86 And here I was, thinking it wouldn't be funny any more. It still is! :D

user15026

@OrigamiRobot You are never going to get tired of bugging me over my choice of pets are you

@AshleyNunn well, if you need a turtle, I know where you can find one for free (@Wipqozn)

user15026

@spugsley Psh, no my frogs are cool I don't need a silly turtle

user15026

One of them stuck itself to the glass

user15026

2:44 AM

it makes me giggle

@AshleyNunn Pets? Don't even try that. We're on to you and your frog schemes.

@AshleyNunn Sooo ... you prefer silly frogs over silly turtles?

user15026

@FEichinger That goes without saying!

user15026

@OrigamiRobot I have no schemes. Just 4 frogs and 24 crickets

@AshleyNunn .....what are the crickets for?

O_O

user15026

2:45 AM

@spugsley Frog food!

@spugsley Feeding the frog?

@AshleyNunn DeadToMeStare

YOU'RE GOING TO LET THOSE CRICKETS GET EATED!??!?!?!

user15026

@spugsley yep.

O_O

user15026

2:46 AM

@FEichinger noooooo foreversadface

10 CRICKETS EACH!?!?! ARE THEY FAT FROGS?!?

wait

that is wrong math

@spugsley EATED *twitch*

Maths. You are bad at it.

3

....hold on, I'll get there

@YiJiang'sEvilClone that was on purpose, the math was not

user15026

These particular frogs are live fed tiny crickets. The crickets will live in the cage I have for them until they need to be eaten. So I also have to feed and care for the crickets.

2:46 AM

8!

EIGHT CRICKETS!

Uh, no.

@AshleyNunn Yes. Dead to me.

6!

user15026

Like no broccoli or spinach or then my frogs will die within minutes of ingesting the now poison crickets

@spugsley Maths. You are still bad at it.

2:47 AM

SIX FROGS!!!!

NO

user15026

@spugsley Yay you did it

lol

CRICKETS!

user15026

@FEichinger FINE I NEVER LIKED YOU ANYHOW

user15026

@spugsley I also have one boy frog who is determined to get with all the lady frogs (I think there are three ladies, one boy)

2:48 AM

@AshleyNunn O-o skank frog

user15026

@spugsley I know! And all the lady frogs are like dude, no, I have a headache. Or something

@AshleyNunn Yeh, right. I'm totally buying that.

user15026

@FEichinger I DIDNT

user15026

NEVER

@AshleyNunn Sure. Keep telling yourself that, might work at some point.

user15026

2:50 AM

@FEichinger SHUSH YOU

user15026

YOU CRUSHER OF FEELINGS

@AshleyNunn Soo ... you're past denial already? Well, that was fast.

user15026

@FEichinger what can I say....

You can say "Shush" apparently.

Which I would raise to a "Shush your face".

user15026

@FEichinger Yeah, but I didn't want to like say yes I move fast and incriminate myself

2:53 AM

@AshleyNunn Weeeell, you just did. Congratulations.

user15026

@FEichinger damn it no thats not how it works

@AshleyNunn Actually, it is.

user15026

@FEichinger nooooooooooooooo

user15026

I say no

And I say yes.

And I can even stretch that vowel as well: Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeees.

user15026

2:55 AM

@FEichinger fine. grumps forever

@AshleyNunn =P

Q: Searching for a family friendly game

-1

I am looking for a game I can play with my two girls (10 & 6 years old). Hopefully a PC game (we have 3), but xbox 360 is also an option. They both play minecraft very well, and we play quite a bit. My 6yr old is content with simple creative mode, standing around and playing with the full invento...

Soo, since my daily fight with Ash is done, I think I can sleep now. Bye. :D

Morning -_-

user15026

@FEichinger grins I see how it is. Staying up for me. How sweeet.

user20683

3:09 AM

@AshleyNunn you have a fan club

user15026

@WorldEngineer Lucky me :P

user15026

Although a club of one is kinda lonely, no?

OH MY GOSH! Wargame: Airland Battle prepurshase on Steam

Why can't I stop watching Rev3 videos!? x_x

@AshleyNunn I has this.

user15026

3:11 AM

@LessPop_MoreFizz Which?

user15026

(There are two shown there)

The Quad.

user15026

@LessPop_MoreFizz it sounds fantastic

It is preeeeetttyyyyy tasty.

user15026

3:23 AM

@Fluttershy hahahahha love it

user15026

@Fluttershy where are you finding this awesome

@AshleyNunn 4chan, surprisingly.

user15026

@Fluttershy huh. well then. :)

Last one:

3:28 AM

So much plum flavors in this beer.

user15026

@LessPop_MoreFizz This a good thing? It sounds like a good thing to me, theoretically

@fluttershy anecdotally untrue. Friend who had testicular cancer reports that curiosity factor has closed the deal for him on many occasions.

@Ashley very good thing when it's this well executed.

user15026

@LessPop_MoreFizz I can see how that would happen

@LessPop_MoreFizz I really want to try this, but I don't think I can find any around here. =\

Nobody should speak to @AshleyNunn until she has de-weaponized the frogs!

user15026

3:31 AM

@OrigamiRobot Psh, Mennonite pacifist over here

user15026

frogs are not weapons

Basically, once he tells a sufficiently drunk girl that he only has one ball, they tend to want to verify for themselves.

That's exactly what she wants you to think! Beware the frogs!

user15026

@LessPop_MoreFizz Makes sense to me

@fluttershy I found it at a random liquor store in East Memphis. It's Sierra Nevada, I'm sure you can find it.

user15026

3:32 AM

@OrigamiRobot Dude. I have a certificate of Mennonite baptism, and the accompanying book on pacifism and other Mennonite behaviours! (Legit, I do.)

@LessPop_MoreFizz Well... I'll keep my eye out.

All that is just a distraction!

Tried to get blizzcon tickets tonight.

Your frog terrorism wont get by me!

Tickets sold out when I was ~10k in line.

@RavenDreamer O.o

@OrigamiRobot Maaaaybe

I was in line in under a minute.

user15026

@RavenDreamer That...wow.

I AM THE ANGRIEST PERSON

HOW IS THAT DOG ALLOWED TO EXIST

user15026

3:34 AM

@IanPugsley why?

@OrigamiRob you do realize that these are Toads, not Frogs, right?

@LessPop_MoreFizz ಠ_ಠ

user15026

@IanPugsley What is it?

@IanPugsley Looks dumb.

3:35 AM

@AshleyNunn A husky-corgi mix

@IanPugsley A Huschund?

@LessPop_MoreFizz Those toads are heroes

@Jin just posted it on Twitter, and now I'm all mad about it

Oh. A Horgi.

@ianpugsley looks like a miniature Husky.

3:35 AM

...corgusky?

Mini huskies are FUCKING ADORABLE FYI.

nope, too mad about cute puppies

4:04 AM

@IanPugsley God, I hope that the husky's the mother of that dog.

I know some dog hybrids have to have some analogue to a C-section performed on the mother because the child is simply too big.

user15026

@Yawus poor dogs

Yeah, that's one of the reasons why amateur dog breeding is both frowned upon and illegal.

If people don't know what they're doing, they could potentially kill both the mother and child due to the size differential.

At some point I think I'll get tired of looking at pictures of SimCity bugs, but until then...

I mean, the game is so pretty, and yet everything else is so fundamentally broken

PBS?

It's like the prettiest train wreak in the world

@Yawus I think twimg is a Twitter CDN

user15026

4:12 AM

@YiJiang'sEvilClone That is an alarming brain picture

Speaking of train wreaks

That is a train jam. Yup.

I'm fairly certain that's poor design as well.

Yeah, trains can't turn 90 degree corners

There's a reason why train tracks don't have T-junctions like cars...

Especially not high speed trains

Their turning radii are ridiculous. Several train lengths at least

4:14 AM

Even light trains, considering how much more massive they are than cars, can't turn like that.

Cars, judging by the intersection outside my house, have enough problems with 90-degree turns that I don't want to imagine something easily ten times as massive trying to do the same.

guys. I say poop a lot

and balls too, apparently

@karina says "fire" a lot, so you're in good company.

@spugsley Yes. Yes you do.

Eh, it's your catchphrase?

user15026

@spugsley this is news? :P

4:17 AM

Just imagine being a superhero. "Up, up, and poooooooooop!"

"I fight for Freedom, Justice, and Balls."

@Yawus yesssss

I'm stealing this

user15026

@YiJiang'sEvilClone this game seems so broken

4:18 AM

@Yawus changed my mind, that one instead

Police car conga lines

Nostalgia

@YiJiang'sEvilClone That's looks like my Civ V screen after I've recklessly installed way too many mods.

Curse you, Dragon Age: Origins, for being on sale.

Hmm... I should probably change my Gravatar.

user15026

4:21 AM

@YiJiang'sEvilClone I find this hilarious

@YiJiang'sEvilClone Which of the Simcity series is your favorite one?

There. Now it fits my Steam profile.

user15026

@Yawus waits for it

@spyder I actually only played SC4 and Societies, but I really do think that SC4 is the best SimCity

The moddability and breadth of the game is pretty astounding, and the graphics hold up surprisingly well considering it is a decade old game

> When my residentials rank up the wealth level they build the middle class houses on top of the old low wealth houses creating weird elevated plots.

I wonder how long it takes for the Gravatar to update.

And whether only changing it on Arqade affects it.

Do I get a different Gravatar for each chat depending on which SE the chat belongs to?

4:27 AM

@Yawus No, your SE chat profile is only associated with one site, and uses that site's avatar

@YiJiang'sEvilClone Try Simcity 3000. Good game and not so old

user15026

@Yawus Gravatar is based on whatever site is your chat parent site. Yours is set to gaming, so your chat-wide Gravatar will match that.

Wonder if I should change my alias to match my Steam profile too?

@AshleyNunn I only just switched it to Arqade. It was originally Stack Overflow.

@Yawus We can be frieeeeeeeeeeeends

user15026

@Yawus yeah, so then it will match your Arqade one, not your SO one

user15026

4:30 AM

@Yawus yeah I am a herp a derp

@AshleyNunn Yay, accidentally orphaned reply!

user15026

@Yawus eh, it is generally true anyhow

Huh. This is taking awhile.

Well. That fixed it.

At least for me.

@YiJiang'sEvilClone Anyways, I'm "Doctor Whooves" on Steam. Although that's probably not helpful at all considering how many of those there are on Steam.

Might be easier to search through the roster on the Arqade Steam group.

user15026

@worldengineer speaking of Steam, that invite from Araleith is me :)

user15026

@Yawus I dont see you :(

user15026

4:38 AM

then again half the avatars there are not loading right

I just exited and re-entered the Bridge.

Fixed it for me.

user15026

@Yawus Oh, there we go

user15026

on refresh I got everyone back

user15026

for a second I lost like most of the avatars here

user15026

it was weird

4:41 AM

user15026

@YiJiang'sEvilClone what

@AshleyNunn Gravity Falls!

You do... watch Gravity Falls, right?

user15026

@YiJiang'sEvilClone No. Should I?

Yes. YES. YES!!!

user15026

@YiJiang'sEvilClone I will look for it then

4:46 AM

@YiJiang'sEvilClone I wonder why the first response to "Why am I sweaty?" has to do with sexuality/childbirth and not "you did five laps around town on a scooter".

@AshleyNunn WHAT?!

EVERYONE SHOULD WATCH GRAVITY FALLS

user15026

@OrigamiRobot oh. okay

I watch gravity fall. I watch gravity fall everyday.

Although, usually, things fall with it.

Or because of it.

@Yawus Common symptom associated with puberty is sweatiness and body odor, at least in boys

@YiJiang'sEvilClone Well. That's awkward. I experienced none of that. Does that mean I'm Peter Pan?

Q: Does Baines Avenue give any advantages over the highway?

Does Baines Avenue give any advantages over the highway? It doesn't seem to have any differences except for the fact that it costs 10 credits more.

Now that traps that propel junk at foes are a thing, thanks to the introduction of minecarts, does the same mechanism apply to body parts, and if it does, are they capable of doing appreciable damage?

@Ullallulloo not quite the same as kitting out school children in bullet proof vests but still pretty stupid

it was reasonably successful but NOW I'M AWAKE AT 7AM
