I submitted that shit
 
@badp I don't know, I was pretty sure you were active in chat at the time
@Frank yeah I got @Braiam to link a screenshot of it in here
@GnomeSlice wasn't that your actual question as well?
 
FAE
3:03 PM
@BenBrocka I am seriously just a huge fan of this game. I nearly died when I saw it on the store. I'm so so happy that it is. The upgrade system is store-based, btw, not in-level, so you know.
 
@GnomeSlice wow
 
@kalina Nope. Mine was the one about mashing potatoes.
I wish mine was as good as that.
 
@FAE interesting. I like some good weapon customization stuff
 
I also asked about beating up bicycles.
 
FAE
@BenBrocka And like I mentioned in my review, the store completely refunds your money, so you can feel free to mix and match and experiment with your loadout at will.
 
3:05 PM
@FAE Oh, cool
 
Bundlestars is giving away free steam copies of Pid, a delightful physics-driven platformer, which is actually much more hardcore than it looks at first.
 
@kalina here are all my tag wiki suggestions. Girl take a look and let me know if I am OK. — Vaishali 5 mins ago
 
FAE
@BenBrocka Even for upgraded weapons! So if you've upgraded something to level 3, it will refund you all the money it cost you to upgrade it to that level, so you're never taking a loss for switching out.
 
Quite a nice game, I recommend you guys at least take a look.
 
cool, just refer to me by my gender, boy
 
3:06 PM
@kalina Yeah, guuuurrl.
 
@Fluttershy yeah boi
 
@kalina Needs more Is.
 
@kalina Ahahahahahaha
 
@kalina facedesk
 
Hey girl, what's your most popular tag?
 
3:07 PM
Wait, I'm not at a desk...
hmm
 
@GnomeSlice boy
 
@kalina Charming.
 
FAE
@GnomeSlice I have too many games. I wasn't sure if I owned this or not, but I do.
 
Gurrrrrrrrrrrrrrl have you seen these tags
 
@FEichinger Indeed.
 
3:08 PM
flirtoverflow
 
Some people are so awful
 
@BenBrocka :o nowai
 
@BenBrocka Like @Wipqozn.
 
Turtles hardly count as people
 
@BenBrocka That's speciest.
 
3:11 PM
@kalina Steamboy is a great movie.
 
@FAE Do you know if you can listen to the jets n guns soundtrack online anywhere?
 
FAE
@GnomeSlice As in, does it stream anywhere?
 
@GnomeSlice honey where have you been yesterday?
 
@FAE Yeah.
@Wandang I'm not really supposed to play games any more.
 
FAE
@GnomeSlice Oof, I dunno about that, considering they give it away free on their website.
 
3:13 PM
i waited desperately to smash your head with my rocket launcher
 
FAE
Sec, I'll check Spotify.
 
@FAE Oh, cool.
That works too.
 
Sometimes I forget to turn off iTunes before leaving work...
 
@BenBrocka Hahahahahahaha awesome.
 
@GnomeSlice your wife got mad?
 
3:13 PM
@Wandang Parents.
 
FAE
@GnomeSlice Yeah, it's free in mp3 and FLAC on their website, they've always given it away for free. Machinae Supremacy's awesome.
 
HamStare @Wandang
 
@GnomeSlice wait i thought you were an adult?
 
@Wandang I'm 21.
 
oh
 
3:14 PM
wut
 
wat
 
wot
 
@GnomeSlice Mine is this one. Amazingly it hasn't been closed and has even been upvoted.
 
ಠ_ಠ
 
wi--wait no that doesn't work
 
3:15 PM
@Unionhawk we- no
@kalina Have you ever tried?
 
I haven't forced myself to sneeze repeatedly, no
 
Oh, that was only asked yesterday.
I was thinking maybe it was some time ago and you had tried since.
 
@kalina sprays pepper in your face
 
I suspect if there's anything actually to that, it's probably different for men and women.
> This came up randomly during office talk but it goes something as follows; sneezing repeatedly is equivalent to having an orgasm.
 
@kalina *isn't closed anymore ftfy
 
3:17 PM
"Office talk" huh
 
The four year mysteries are finished and revealed!
 
Are they?
 
@GnomeSlice well woman can get a double orgasmn
 
How many did you get right @AshleyNunn @SaintWacko @Yuki @fallenlondonpeeps
 
since they can queef as well ಠ_ಠ
 
3:18 PM
@kalina Sneeze+orgasm = Snorgasm
 
@Wandang ......................
 
FAE
@BenBrocka That just parses as a boring orgasm to me.
 
@FAE lmao
> Orgasm? More like snorgasm amiright?
hah
 
@Wandang ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ ಠ_ಠ
 
@FAE That's a borgasm
 
FAE
3:19 PM
@Wandang ...what. Those have nothing to do with one another.
@BenBrocka Hm, that works.
 
sorry, I facedesked so hard I knocked myself for a brief moment
 
@BenBrocka I thought that was when you had one despite trying to resist? Because resistance is futile?
 
@FAE Is it weird that I thought that too?
 
Hey look, it's @RonanForman!
 
@kalina proximity to wandang can cause that apparently
 
3:22 PM
strange how @Ronan turns up in the middle of a discussion about orgasms
 
@kalina You can't spell orgasm without.... Nope, I got nothing.
 
@kalina There's probably some direction this can be taken, but I'm not the one to take it there, and apparently neither is @Ronan
 
@RonanForman gas
Now make something of that.
 
facedesk
 
(After reading the transcript, turns out @Wandang does have a point there!)
 
3:23 PM
@kalina Who stole your gravatar?
 
(A terrible one, but a point.)
 
FAE
@FEichinger I'm not sure what this says about you or about me.
 
WTF WHY IS MY AVATAR SO IMPORTANT TO EVERYBODY
 
@FAE Yeeeeh ...
@kalina Because default gravatars look nice?
 
@FEichinger nice hideous
 
3:24 PM
@kalina I hate change.
 
@kalina Because I recognise people almost entirely on their avatar.
 
@GnomeSlice you're not really one to talk about changing avatars
 
FAE
@RonanForman I kept thinking she was @John for a bit.
 
@RonanForman You can't spell smorgasbord without orgasm
 
@RonanForman well, now I'm the person with the generic green shapes, like many other users on the site
 
3:25 PM
@kalina To be fair, all of his at least follow a similar theme.
 
@Fluttershy do you not remember the ones he had before he went with the cyclops visor?
 
@Fluttershy ಠ_ಠ
 
@GnomeSlice ಠ_ಠ
 
@Unionhawk Well you can't.
 
@kalina That was when he was trying something new. Everyone makes mistakes! Clearly he has seen the error of his ways.
 
3:26 PM
You just have to rearrange it a bit

Q: Why is there no review queue on the mobile site?

David MNot sure if this is asked and answered elsewhere. (Searching Meta isn't always fruitful due to rampant down voting!) The mobile interface that just debuted the other day is a massive improvement over the old. But, how about a review queue? I can access it from full-site mode; I know there isn't...

 
@Fluttershy yeah, I'm trying something new. I'm trying to make everybody forget their preconceptions about me so that I can be neutral and easily forgotten.
 
@kalina ... You know full well that's not happening. :/
 
Mind control sounds
 
@kalina I tried that.
@kalina I like my preconceptions about you. =[
 
3:28 PM
 
@GnomeSlice The bad ones that some other people have
 
@FEichinger that's only because everybody loves to hate me
 
@kalina Not everybody!
 
@FEichinger 99% of everybody
 
@BenBrocka been there done that
 
3:29 PM
@kalina ... I'm 1% again, huh?
 
@kalina I think it's safe to say that the vocal minority that is The Bridge do not. The rest of the peoples, well, I can't really speak for them.
 
Also, why has nobody said ALL GLORY TO THE HYPTNOTOAD yet?
 
@KevinvanderVelden I thought it was implied
 
@KevinvanderVelden Just to mess with you.
You're welcome.
 
@Unionhawk thank you, I think
@FEichinger "we are the 1% that doesn't love to hate @kalina" doesn't sound quite as catchy
 
3:32 PM
@Unionhawk I certainly wouldn't put everybody in the bridge in that group.
 
@kalina Okay, fair enough. The majority of the vocal minority?
 
@kalina @uni ... I suggest dropping it.
 
@Unionhawk A small fraction
 
@FEichinger Yup. YouTube feed! Give me an interesting video to distract everyone with
...or not that's cool too
 
@Unionhawk I don't think @GnomeSlice is going to respond to "YouTube feed!"
 
3:34 PM
@FEichinger No, I was talking to YouTube
 
watch the youtube rewind 2013 video again
 
Yes really.
 
So has everyone heard about Dungeon Keeper's rating fudging?
 
Or this?
@RedRiderX It was discussed earlier, I think. It's fairly common practice though, isn't it?
 
@TZHX Really?
To this extent?
 
3:37 PM
 
It's pretty blatant manuipulation
 
@RedRiderX I don't think most outright ask for 5 stars
 
That was my understanding from looking at it, I don't really follow much in the mobile games market.
 
It's usually "Please rate our game!"
 
@BenBrocka Well that and if you click on 1-4 stars you don't actually rate it.
 
3:38 PM
Not "Please give us 5 stars! ... And if you do, rate it immediately! And ... if you don't want to, well fuck you!"
 
@RedRiderX Yeah, that's new on me
though I think even the standard "pls rate!" popups should be against policy
 
@BenBrocka A lot of games will say something like "rate our game", but I've seen "Like our game? Rate 5!". Never "What would you rate this game: (if 5 send to store to rate)"
That's pretty blatantly manipulative.
 
They only want good ratings on the store... shocking behaviour.
 
In case someone didn't know yet, you can get a free Steam game for signing up for a newsletter
 
I was going to do a joke let's play of that game but Slimport sucks so I couldn't get either device to output to HDMI

Q: What is causing licorice swirls to drop from dispensers?

Cédric DeremeI'm playing Candy Crush Saga on Facebook (but I guess the mobile versions features the same levels) and I'm currently stuck on Level 293 The main difficulty from this level is in my opinion the licorice dispensers that will block most of the board, preventing you from clearing it. So my question...

 
FAE
@BenBrocka omg
 
The mobile game industry is pretty well shit anyway without EA's help

This book was written as a "how-to" guide on getting games into the App store faster and cheaper without needing to be a Geek or a Michelangelo! Reskinning apps, that is the swapping out of the graphics, sound and music, is a way anyone can publish games and build a sustainable online business. But the industry is often hard to figure out, and there are a ton of pitfalls and dead ends where you can get lost, or lose valuable time, or worse, confidence which can prevent you from succeeding. If you are looking for a shortcut on reskins, and figuring out how to build a sustainable long term business playing games you have come to the right place (corny, but true!). This is a big book! I tried to cover as many things as I could to answer virtually any question you may have on reskinning. Topics covered in this book include: What is the opportunity Who is the audience Why reskinning is so hot Where to start Mindset and Goal setting Focus Your first reskin What is this "source code" stuff and why do I need it Why a reskin is cheaper and faster, but can also be better IOS or Android? Common gotchas when buying source code Assessing quality and why its important Coder, Artist, Designer - Whats the difference The three main ways to reskin Outsource or DIY? Finding resources and people to help Pitfalls of micro-managing Avoid getting ripped off Things that can go wrong Handling (app) rejections (when submitting to app stores) What, I am not a millionaire yet? Updating your ap
 
@FAE Parker actually does that a lot
 
@Unionhawk The best mobile games are non-EA remakes of old games
When BGII comes to Android I will be so, so happy
 
@fredley I direct you to the amazon link above, where people are making not only remakes of old games, but reskins of current mobile apps
 
3:44 PM
@Unionhawk I am aware of the reskinning business
 
Yeah reskinning is a pretty horrific example of what's wrong with mobile
 
FAE
@BenBrocka ...he attacks goats?
 
@GnomeSlice have you heard about Sila Games?
 
@FAE jumps 4x his height in the air and dropkicks things
 
they're supposed to be a new distribution thing out
 
3:45 PM
> What is this "source code" stuff and why do I need it
 
FAE
@BenBrocka haha, seriously?
 
@FAE Yeah, he'll hide behind a doorframe, leap out about waist to chest high and kick off of you with his hind legs and land and run off
 
FAE
@BenBrocka You should film this.
Also my pings seem to be coming only from my left speaker...
 
I have one of those gaming chair rockers that fold in half. My cat really likes to stand on the top of it so that it tilts all the way back to the ground, step off so that it flies forward and closes (with a loud bang), then he meows at me till I open it back up so he can do it again.
 
@FAE I would, but it's really hard, and it's hard to predict when he'll do it too
 
3:47 PM
@RedRiderX No, what's that?
 
Here's a beta access link: silagames.com/promo/reddit
 
FAE
@BenBrocka Aw.
 
@fredley That needs to be all kinds of illegal.

If it isn't already.
 
3:48 PM
Oh hey I didn't know openRA was a thing.
 
@Yuki Yeah, for reals though.
 
@BenBrocka We once had a chicken that would attack anything that even came close to her chicks.
The best part was timing the breeding machine so that the chicken would have a couple chicks at the same time that all the other chicks came out, so it was a small chicken with ~100 chicks. Who outgrew her in less then a month.

@FAE Nope, real life.

@OrigamiRobot For varying qualities of "best deals".
 
@FAE He would, though

see, if people aren't intelligent enough to list their stuff correctly, I -- as a general rule -- wouldn't trust they'd taken care of it in it's previous life.
 
@BenBrocka Misspelled MtG cards are actually a gold mine.
 
3:59 PM
@OrigamiRobot Wouldn't surprise me with all the proper nouns involved
how do you find them though?
 
@BenBrocka hmmm... derpentainment...
 
@BenBrocka Randomly.
 
1 hit on google
 
@RedRiderX Or, of course, you can just download the original C&C and Red Alert for free :P
 
4:00 PM
I can barely properly ebay well spelled items. I guess I think this app thing to give me non-shitty notifications about things I've been on. And also to only bid super late
 
This was how the chicken looked, kinda.
(random image from the web here)
 
How is it so fluffy?
 
@BenBrocka I don't know, it's a "silkie" in english.
The Silkie (sometimes alternatively spelled Silky) is a breed of chicken named for its atypically fluffy plumage, which is said to feel like silk. The breed has several other unusual qualities, such as black skin, flesh, and bones, blue earlobes, and five toes on each foot, whereas most chickens only have four. They are often exhibited in poultry shows, and appear in various colors. In addition to their distinctive physical characteristics, Silkies are well known for their calm, friendly temperament. Among the most docile of poultry, Silkies are considered an ideal pet. Hens are also ...
SE, the only image that is not a chicken? I'm surprised it isn't a phone or something random.
 
FAE
@Arperum hahaha
 
@Arperum I've never understood why they don't just automatically target the image in the box in the top right
 
4:04 PM
@SaintWacko There should be some kind of logic available in the wiki pages.
 
@Arperum Proof that the egg came first.
 
Nice cover here! You'll all know the song :)
 
@Arperum I'm suddenly reminded of this

These silkie chickens are really fluffy, and huggable.
Don't try to touch anything they are defending though, they will defend at all costs.
 
4:08 PM
@Arperum For a moment I thought this was something about Selkies.
 
@GraceNote Quite the difference there.
 
Quite.
 
So creepy.
 
PSA: @kalina is not me.
 
@John lies
You're her sockpuppet!
 
4:12 PM
@John whatever you say, kalina
 
@SaintWacko Eh this is supposed to be a little more modernized.
 
@OrigamiRobot Fancy.
 
@John How's Thaumcraft going for you?
 
@Arperum I've kinda put it on hold at the moment while I explore other mods further, like Tinker's Construct and the Twilight Forest
 
@John Obviously. She's a square, you're a diamond
 
4:15 PM
@John You're playing some monster pack version IIRC?
 
@Arperum Yep!
 
@John Have you updated it to the most recent version of the pack(1.0.9) or still using the slightly older version(1.0.5)?
 
@Arperum I did not update to the very latest version because last time I did, my world went away.
 
@John Aw, that's bad.
 
@Arperum Heheh, yeah, disappearing worlds usually are

I know that's who I'd vote for.
 
Yeah, don't they know it's owlbears, not moose?
 
Owlbears?
Is that the most awesome name for an animal or what?
 
They're pretty ferocious!
 
We call them "hirvi" in Finland
and it's kind of funny that "hirviö" means monster
 
4:25 PM
@3ventic ... it's possible to have a word with less than 20 characters in finnish? O.o
 
@KevinvanderVelden yeah, "on" means is
 
@3ventic I'm impressed! I didn't think it possible
 
or have/has
 
@KevinvanderVelden Only if it's related to moose, reindeer or snow.
 
@3ventic I posted that twice. It's a good game too.
 
4:27 PM
I'll have to try it
 
@Wipqozn Too may days.
 
It's not like I'll be bothered by the newsletter in my less used email or anything
Most words in Finnish are under 20 characters long tbh
 
(Ok, ok, there are also words like kalina ...)

That's a good word

@3ventic All they do is notify you when they run new bundles.
Which happens like once every two weeks.
 
@MartinSojka I put it into Google Translate and one of the optional translations is "chatter".
 
I'm trying not to buy any games at the moment
unless I can buy it on Steam as I still have money left in my Steam wallet from Christmas
 
@Yuki .. or you could just have switched to the English Wiktionary. ;)
 
@OrigamiRobot I concur.
I'm sure @TimStone agrees as well.
 
4:30 PM
does so blindly
Wait, what?
Ah, yes. Agreement confirmed.
 
@MartinSojka .. or see the translations on the page itself:
Although I guess it's not obvious that "englanti" = English
 
@Wipqozn I'm going to name my town @TimStone.
 
Augh I can't remember how to play C&C
And there aren't any single player things
 
@RedRiderX This is part of why I don't like multiplayer only games. I loathe "learning" while playing live against other peopel
 
4:47 PM
8 days to go
 
@BenBrocka Even if the singleplayer is crap, it's nice to have one to learn the mechanics of the game without having to worry about other people.
 
@kalina But Banished comes out in 12 days.
 
8 days!
 
@Yuki Exactly. Even something to get a feel for the controls
 
@kalina Oh, you must mean 8 days till you time travel to the 18th.
 
4:51 PM
no...
 
@OrigamiRobot I'm not sure what I'll name mine.
Maybe Tanzia.
Maybe Timberlea (where I live).
Maybe WipqoznLand.
Maybe @OrigamiRobotIsASuperClassyRobot.
Who knows!
 
@Wipqozn Wipqozonia
 
@OrigamiRobot 5 days until Lightning Returns!

Turtle Island is a term used by several Northeastern Woodland Native American tribes, especially the Haudenosaunee or Iroquois Confederacy, for the continent of North America. Lenape The Lenape myth of the "Great Turtle" was first recorded between 1678 and 1680 by Jasper Danckaerts. The myth is shared by other Northeastern Woodlands tribes, notably the Iroquois. Iroquois According to Iroquois oral history, Sky Woman fell down to the earth when it was covered with water. Various animals tried to swim to the bottom of the ocean to bring back dirt to create land. Muskrat succeeded in gather...
 
@OrigamiRobot town for what?
