My K/D ratio is actually higher as Engineer, though, and yesterday's Dustbowl session is likely what sealed me in top place, given the number of times one of my teleporters was used (113, iirc)
I'd like to determine the attributes of a quest (i.e., information provided by functions such as QuestIsDaily and IsQuestCompletable) before the player clicks on the quest detail.
I'm trying to write an add-on that handles accepting and completing of daily quests with a single click on the NPC,...
I now have two items with non-conflicting effects! I would have preferred energy or something better, but those are higher on the demand chart than Circling Heart is.
What's the current consensus* on tagging for game expansion packs? I want to clean up the warcraft 3 stuff and there's some confusion between warcraft-3 and warcraft-3-frozen-throne.
@badp No, it's purely cosmetic... but it's rare to have two items with particle effects equipped, since you can only do it on two classes (Medic and Spy)
I probably should have just gotten a better effect Unusual on my Engineer instead, since you can't see a Spy's hats when he's disguised... but it DOES show up in the kill cam.
Also I think this question probably deserves the [warcraft-series] tag, but there aren't any other existing questions that refer to multiple games in the series which I know of
I am new to this whole Warcraft/WoW world. I see there are different versions, like Warcraft, Warcraft III, World of Warcraft. I am a total newbie at this. Where should I start playing? I want to be able to play on a server as well as alone at home. I understand that World of Warcraft can only be...
You can ask the question, but I can tell you right now that it's because the Vortigaunts were being controlled by the last boss (whose name I don't recall) of HL1.
You might have to find the hidden Singing Vortigaunt guy to get that explanation... I'm not sure. Which is also an HL2 achievement, now that the game has achievements.
@Strix: I'm one of the few people who didn't play that game when it first came out and I got spoiled on it and it totally killed my motivation to finish it. :(
I just edited the wiki for magicka and got some rep for it. When I viewed where my recent rep came from, it looked like this:
There is no reason at all, just a blank space. Mystery rep.
Sorry for the lack of freehand circles.
I started to get bored of the Doom 3 expansion (Resurrection of Evil) as soon as I realized the game was intentionally shorting me ammo to force me to use the gravity-gun clone.
and I say Gravity Gun clone because it's a weapon that didn't exist in Doom 3 (came out the same year as Half-Life 2) but it's in the expansion (came out a year after Half-Life 2).
OK, now that the blizzard day is over, I should phone my ISP tonight and tell them I'm still having problems and ask them to at LEAST send me a new cable modem.
One of the nice things about Team Fortress 2 is that I can change classes at any point in a round without any disadvantage, but in MNC, if I'm sucking at a class, changing classes puts me at a serious disadvantage.
@sinni800 Each class in MNC has two weapons and 3 special skills. The weapons usually have two firing modes (one of which is a short-range grapple attack).
er... one of your alt firing modes is a grapple attack that is.
The thing is, you have four things that you can upgrade for money you earn in game. But if you change classes, the class you change to has all level 1 skills and whatever money you had prior to changing.

One of the Guild Challenges for the Mercenary's Guild in Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood states:
25 Guards killed while on horseback
Does this mean I need to kill 25 guards while I am on a horse, or kill 25 guards while they are on a horse?
I tried testing both but the counter seemed t...
Heh, Ivo becoming a mod here could creat interesting situations. We could force a new policy that all hardware related Gaming questions are migrated to SU, and Ivo would be caught in an infinite loop of migration.
I bought a Windows 7 machine and went to install Civilization IV on it. It told me the program had "known problems". What do I need to do to get it working?
Everywhere I look for powerful spell combinations says to use the Steam Beam (QFQFAAS), but however powerful that is on those big powerful enemies, it's fairly ineffective on big groups of lesser enemies.
What is a more spammable spell that I could use to deal with these kinds of battles? I've ...
@badp Do you get rep from making tag edits, or just suggesting them? I made one yesterday and didn't notice a rep increase, but also didn't expect one.
There was this Question on SO this morning (GMT Time). I made an edit (I don't have enough rep to do it without peer review) and the changes I commited were
Change the Title
Fix code Indent
After this happened, my changes were accepted, and I +1-ed the question and put it as a favorite.

You can have this phone! At €500 or by signing up to our €50 a month plan for 18 months!
The fact that my €240 iPod Touch outdoes any smartphone of its price range considerably is surprising though. I mean, a little, sure, since they have to buy one less component, but the actual GSM reciever can't cost too much when you can get a contract-free dumbphone for €30.
Well, when it's working right, which is considerably less often since iOS 4
Wow, I always thought @GraceNote's avatar was wearing some kind of poofy circular cone-shaped purple head adornment. Looking at the full-sized version I now realize it's just the sky in the background of the image.
When an unregistered user gets to stackoverflow.com he will see:
As you can see there is no register link.
I think this is confusing since most sites on the Internet that sounds horrible offer "register" in there home.
I know this is done like this because of the "particular" login and regis...
