@Michel I don't have original source, so this might take a while
 
@fredley No problem. I'm (REALLY) looking forward to it. Thank you very much kind noble Sir. =D
@kalina ♡
 
Welcome to Milliways!
 
o.O ? who's Milliways?

Q: Where's a good place to train up to level 50?

JvamI defeated Cyrus for the first time at Veilstone and I'm going to Mt. Coronet to fight Mars, Jupiter, Cyrus and Dialga. My weakest pokemon is at level 30 and my strongest is at level 43. Where can I train up to level 45-50?

 
Is there a way to exclude tags when searching?
 
5:10 PM
I think so... o.O
 
@fbueckert Try -[tag]
 
@fbueckert cart -[minecraft]
 
@Michel The restaurant at the end of the universe, of course!
 
@SaintWacko SORRY!!!!! I don't believe I forgot! that omg omg omg (Fuuuuuuuuuuu) >.< Damn, I'm not eligible to the towel day this year now T_T
 
@Michel Hehe
 
5:13 PM
 
@fredley Very nice
 
O M G
 
It'll do
 
@fredley omg tks, omg tks, omg tks, omg tks, omg tks, omg tks
 
5:15 PM
I like translating "tks" into "tanks" instead of "thanks"
 
Hmmm, png upload fail
 
And now I imagine @Michel running down a street away from a row of incoming tanks screaming his lungs off
 
Seems like the background's got a tad fucked
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone I translate tks into team kills
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone ROLF!
 
5:16 PM
 
@kalina AUHAUhauAHuahAUHAH
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Saw that in Roger's answer on UX, classic bad dialog
 
Every time a Soldier on my team does the Equalizer taunt, I stand next to him and explode at the same time he does, then call him out for teamkilling
It's incredibly lame, but apparently people think it's funny
 
@fredley Even changed my fb profile pic
 
5:18 PM
That's dedication
 
Eeyup
 
I'm not sure why it's screwed up on your profile though
Try a less compressed version:
 
> We’ve received word from Valve on the Leviathan Team Fortress 2 hat, and have informed us that the Team Fortress 2 team “just doesn’t have the cycles to accommodate the Skullgirls TF2 hat.”
 
I don't think this is actually recognisable. At least, not easily.
 
5:21 PM
TF2 team doesn't have time for hats? What.
 
@BenBrocka That means they have to be working on something huge.
 
I'd be curious how much of Valve would identify themselves as part of the TF2 team nowadays
 
@fbueckert Like a really big hat?
 
And this one just looks weird
 
5:24 PM
A minigun that fires hats
 
@BenBrocka Or maybe a new update of sorts? I dunno. But whatever it is, if they can't make a hat, then it's gotta be big.
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Bon Bon tentacles
 
@BenBrocka nope.gif
 
> Deflect Missiles typically makes this [dodging missiles] so easy that even a drunk plate-clad orc can do
it.
 
5:27 PM
Overly Attached SO User
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone No. Not a good idea.
 
@BenBrocka New meme!
 
@BenBrocka Where the crap was this?
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Uh...
 
5:28 PM
@fredley Old meme!
 
@fbueckert Someone from SO shared it, dunno where its' from (deleted now anyway)
 
I'll stick to Bon Bon's mane instead of tail
 
@BenBrocka Wow. That just makes me want to never answer that question.
 
brb
 
@fbueckert "Wheeeeeere your answers?" read in the same cadence as "HEeeeeere's Johnny axe through door!"
 
5:31 PM
@BenBrocka Hang on, is that a string of interobangs?
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone No, those are backwards question marks.
 
I think so, but it's hard to tell. They render so awfully in most fonts
 
Although in the written English language there is no standard way to denote irony or sarcasm, several forms of punctuation have been proposed. Among the oldest and frequently attested are the percontation point invented by English printer Henry Denham in the 1580s, and the irony mark, used by Marcellin Jobard in an article dated June 11th, 1841 and commented in a 1842 report. It was furthered by French poet Alcanter de Brahm in the 19th century. Both of these marks were represented visually by a backwards question mark, ⸮ (in Unicode: ). Using LaTeX, one can display it by including the ...
 
Oh, yeah, they're just backwards. Still terrible, though
 
Either that or it's from Arabic.
 
5:34 PM
@Ullallulloo Well, there's certainly a lot of irony in that question
Not that I think the OP can see it.
 
Still as Rarity =(
well... tommorow I'll be the Deputy =D
 
@Michel Force your browser to reload without using the cache with ctrl+F5
 
it's showing now
 
@fredley I made the canvas a little larger (350 instead of 300) and it corrected in the profile
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Tried that already =(
 
@Michel Awesome
 
5:40 PM
@BenBrocka UHAuah

Q: Why cant i see all the assignments on BF3?

Gidi FriedmanI have most of the assignments completed but i cant see the AUG or Scar-L and i need those guns. also are the assignments supposed to disappear when they are completed or just stay there?

Q: How long will StreetPass parties stay on my map?

KatieKI've StreetPassed with a few other Fire Emblem Awakenings players, I can shop or battle their parties on my map. I need to earn more money to buy some high level items for sale by one StreetPass party. How long will the StreetPass parties stay on my map?

 
@BenBrocka I'M DEPUTY! I want to thanks the academy, my mom, my dad, @fredley for being awesome, @fbueckert for being a great Marshal @kalina (just to make her speak a little) and all the SE mods that didn't ban me (yet)
=)
 
@Michel Thanking the mods? That's a banning.
 
Hmmm. Yeah, it's not salvageable. Bon Bon's tail just won't do.
 
5:57 PM
@GraceNote - Do you have time for a FFII question?
 
@Michel That's gonna be fun for others to tell us apart.
 
@TrentHawkins Joy. Look at the weather forecast for today.

Relevant Stackexchange site

Proposed Q&A site for people who are unsure which Stackexchange site their question fits into, or to inquire about differences between sites, or sites most relevant to a certain topic.

Closed before being launched.

Conspiracy Theories

Proposed Q&A site for conspiracy theorists trying to prove a point, anti-conspiracists arguing against conspiracists.

Currently in definition.

@fbueckert 4 inches is 'brace yourself' territory? I thought Canadians were good at snow.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz We're in freaking March.
 
@fbueckert And?
March snowstorms are pretty normal.
 
And we've got enough snow to put it up to our waists in most places.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz We've already had 4 - 6 feet of snow this year.
My shed roof collapsed last week.
 
This is going to be wet, heavy snow. It'll be a nightmare to remove.
 
6:08 PM
@LessPop_MoreFizz Glorious
 
We average 6 inches of snow in March every year here. It usually only comes ouf of 1-2 storms.
 
@Michel Your @kalina lure failed. She's too busy downvoting everything on MSO
 
@fredley Meta.meta.SO
 
@fbueckert SO.meta.SO
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Flames.SE
 
6:10 PM
@fredley Either way, a catch-all site for these types of questions is all sorts of bad.
A guy with 2K rep on A51 should know better.
 
@SaintWacko The problem with that is eventually you lose your MSO downvote.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Hm, true
Didn't think about that
 
@fbueckert 2k network rep.
230 A51 rep.
 
@SaintWacko T_T Crap I'll try @kalina again
 
@Michel I don't think @kalina will respond
 
@Michel Oh, I see how it is. Ungrateful lout.
 
@kalina doesn't like being constantly pinged
 
...Huh. Why does it show network rep?
 
@fbueckert Because network rep is used as a weighting factor on commitments.
 
That seems all sorts of misleading.
 
6:13 PM
@SaintWacko Well you can't say that I didn't try =)
 
@fbueckert Not really. A51 rep is kind of a strange thing that's really hard to get in any practical sense.
 
@JasonBerkan Ouch. I hope you have insurance for that.
 
Network rep is a much better measurement of familiarity with the SE system as a whole, though getting to 3k or so by spamming association bonuses makes the minimum number I'd call 'credible' a little higher than on any one site.
 
I changed my gravatar to the Deputy badge and the "extra" picture to Rarity with the Deputy badge. Neither updated yet T_T
 
@fbueckert I do, but I'm unlikely to make a claim. I can afford to replace the shed.
 
6:15 PM
@Michel I see it.
What "extra" picture?
 
@JasonBerkan It still sucks. You lose anything important in it?
 
Oh, your Arqade pic?
 
@Ullallulloo You can upload a image and use it as your profile picture, without changing your gravatar.
@Ullallulloo Eeyup
 
@fbueckert Nah - just the roof broke. I can still get in and rescue everything (which is mostly just kid's toys).
 
@JasonBerkan Ok, so not too huge a deal.
 
6:17 PM
What's the point of having insurance on it if you don't use it, though?
 
I've got a rickety garage that seems to get more unstable as time goes on.
Hasn't fallen down yet, but I don't give it long.
 
@SaintWacko If you use your insurance for every small thing, soon you will not be able to afford insurance.
Insurance is for big problems (like if my house roof collapsed).
 
@JasonBerkan Or if the garage collapses on my car.
 
@JasonBerkan Oh, the shed is under the same insurance as your house?
Okay, that makes sense, then
 
@JasonBerkan I never played 2.
 
6:21 PM
@GraceNote OK.
 
@BenBrocka The TF2 team has other things to work on. There's a reason that most hats are community designed now.
 
1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and partwise 10 and 12. That's all you can ask me in that series.
Ideally 3 and 5.
 
@GraceNote No 9?
 
@fbueckert Never had a chance to play it. As it were, 7 and 8 were the PC versions, and I'm rather partwise to the latter anyway.
 
@GraceNote Eight was quite good, yes. I loved nine, though.
 
6:25 PM
Last year in TF2 had... Meet the Pyro, new art assets for about 1/4 of the maps in the game. New Robot models and textures. New Halloween models/textures. New boss model and textures. New map models and textures for 8 maps.
(the new art assets for 1/4 of the maps are the Pyrovision assets)
 
DON'T TALK ABOUT MY SAUCE
 
Eheheh... I've got the scarf, and now a paper bag full of gummy bears... that I will call jelly babies...
 
that flag made my head hurt
 
Reject all flags as Confuses badp

@Powerlord well, all in all it's a whole new game mode, which is no small undertaking I suppose. Also Steam Trading, Steam Market, Steam for Linux, ...
 
6:34 PM
We have @murgatroid99 as Sparkle @Fluttershy as Fluttershy Me as Rarity... missing Rainbow dash, apple jack and pink pie
 
> Esto, also brought up aqui?
For some reason I don't need to guess too hard as to who wrote that comment
 
@badp spanish with english ? o.O
 
@badp I was addressing the art department specifically, because the Skullgirls team seems to think the TF2 team will models their TF2 hat for them.
 
@Powerlord oh. uh. yeah. not going to happen.
 
Which, to my understanding, isn't how promo hats work. Even the very first promo hat was designed by the other team, specifically the Telltale Games team and Max's Severed Head.
 
6:37 PM
I can totally see how the Skullgirls team would lack a 3D modeler and texturer but...
I mean, the TF2 Runner2 shoes are simply copy pasted from the default Commander Video skin
 
Maybe cycles is referring to something else, but... what else could it possibly mean?
 
although I did hope it'd change your trail when you Bonk! Atomic Punch to the rainbow thing
oh well
after all, death in the game is called bonking and the promo picture did have a scout running with the rainbow thing.
I WILL CLEARLY BE ASKING FOR A FULL REFUND
 
@badp I... wouldn't put that past you.
 
@Powerlord I only get one chance for Steam refunds, it won't be over a misc item obviously
besides, if I really didn't like them, I could sell it for actual money on the Steam Market
...uh they used to sell for €5, now they're €.02
whereas the Genuine Point and Shoot, which is still being distributed, sells for €6
I dungeddit.
maybe TF2 reports the price of the lowest offer to buy

Q: Is there a way to farm mission items without starting over the whole game?

Domenik VanBuskirkDuring my first full play of the game, I accepted any mission as soon as it was available then sold the resulting item for a quick profit. Sadly, it wasn't until after completely finishing my first play-through that I finally learned the true value of the majority of one-time-only quest items (Ev...

Q: In what version of Final Fantasy II was the magic penalty of weapons and armour removed?

Jason BerkanIn Final Fantasy II, your characters have no restrictions with what they can attack with, wear as armour or cast as spells. Each character just gets better at whatever it is you make them do. However, as per most role playing games, there are penalties for wielding specific weapons or wearing s...

 
uh, no, it's just completely wrong.
 
@badp Genuine Point and Shoot is still being distributed? You sure about that?
Pretty sure it only applied if you pre-ordered Trine 2.
 
@Powerlord I'm fairly certain there's an option to upgrade to the premium edition which includes those items
or you can just buy it outright
 
@badp The TF2 items aren't mentioned at all the Store page for Trine 2, so I'm not sure where you're getting this from.
 
@Powerlord From the fact that I didn't preorder Trine 2 and I have the items. I'm doublechecking from my purchase history
of course this is taking a while because I hit in five minutes of hate from my hard drive
> Trine 2 Collector's Edition
 
7:03 PM
When did you buy it?
 
July 15th, 2012 for €5
Release Date: Dec 7, 2011

Q: Enemy Movieclip fails to change animations when within a specific range

Hank Turtle LoWhat I hope to happen is for the enemy AI to get within "attack range" and change to an attacking animation (which is a animated movieclip set inside the spawned enemies movie clip), instead of continously being stuck on the "walking" animation frame even when within attacking range. Here is the ...

 
Heh, the learndb entry for "Almost dead" is "Still entirely capable of obliterating you."
 
@Powerlord The actual hat was being designed by another developer (they already had working versions actually)
 
Easter egg Harlem Shake from youtube
 
7:09 PM
@Powerlord They had pictures of the hat on Spy and Heavy. I don't think they were asking anyone to "just make it for them"
 
@Michel ollllllllllllllld.
 
@badp For real o.O?
First time I saw this was a couple minutes ago o.O
It was yesterday that it was online, no?
 
7:25 PM
@BenBrocka Do I even need to tell you how easy that would be in photoshop with 2D images?
 
@fbueckert buuuuy one.
 
IF they're photoshopped they put a lot of work into making a 3D model to photoshop them in already
 
@Wipqozn What do you think I've been looking at today?
 
@RavenDreamer I was really confused until I noticed the tortoise.
 
7:28 PM
@Wipqozn turtle*
 
@fbueckert I have no idea, I've been at school.
 
@Wipqozn Getting myself up to speed on M3U, and seeing if I can find a Wii U on Kijiji for cheap.
Which means we can play it together!
At least this one, from what I can tell, is completely playable offline.
 
still hates the delay before you can mark your own answer to your question as accepted.
 
@fbueckert Looks like it is, yeah. I believe you and @TrentHawkins can still do local player as well, since a a 3DS can connect to a WiiU.
 
@Wipqozn Yeah. That'll be lots of fun on its own, too.
@TrentHawkins isn't a huge fan, though; there was much swearing involved when we played Tri.
 
7:35 PM
@BenBrocka That's probably way over the top for a TF2 item
I don't ever see something this huge being part of the game
 
@fbueckert Swearing? me? Never! I don't get that angry at video games! >.> Sweeps old classic controllers from Tri under a rug
 
@OrigamiRobot CHELONIAN*
 
@TrentHawkins Oh, right. I forgot about controller destruction entirely.
 
@Wipqozn I LOVE WADDLES
 
@OrigamiRobot Is that part of the script?
 
7:49 PM
@SaintWacko No, I am expressing my love for Waddles.
 
@OrigamiRobot What's a waddle?
Other than a verb?
 
@fbueckert Not a waddle, Waddles
2
 
@OrigamiRobot Oh. Walking bacon. Got it.
 
You don't even know.
 
@OrigamiRobot It's bacon. I love bacon.
What else is there to know?
 
7:53 PM
Nobody would dare eat Waddles.
 
@OrigamiRobot @fbueckert would
 
@fbueckert I think it's always like that with Monster Hunter.
@OrigamiRobot Waddles is pretty awesome/.
 
First post on Meta Stack Overflow and kalina is already 80% of the way to a Mortarboard badge.

That would make an excellent gravatar.
 
@Wipqozn That it would.
Good juxtaposition of the tackiness of the filth-covered pig and the sophistication of a monocle.
 
7:58 PM
@Wipqozn I wish Waddles was a robot.
