Q: I have little lag on Offline Games

AdrWhen I play MyPlayer mode on NBA 2k14 on my PS3 I usually have a little lag when I'm playing. It's really annoying to try a long shot and when I'm pressing button or using thumbstick the game stops for a moment and then continues. I can't play normally. Is a game problem? or my PS3 is going wrong...

 
...why's there echo in a prerecorded event
 
FAE
lol they used the Luigi glare clip
 
4:16 PM
 
FAE
I will totally play this.
...whenever I get a WiiU.
 
super yarn bros?
 
Oh god they actually did it.
A Toad Captain game.

4:20 PM
@BenBrocka neeeeergh want
 
user15026
damn you nintendo
 
Well that was a productive morning.
 
@BenBrocka Yoshi's Epic Yarn?
 
i was gonna say that
 
@AshleyNunn Account #6
 
4:24 PM
@Frank yes--and it looks like it plays like Yoshi's Island moreso than Kirby's Epic Yarn
 
user15026
@BenBrocka eeeeee
 
@BenBrocka The Yoshi's Island games were always fun.
 
user15026
@GnomeSlice ....you know if that gets posted when flags appear and people appear to check into them, you are just going to annoy the crap out of people, and cause further problems? The Bridge already has a crap rep in some people's eyes....let's not make it worse.
 
well...the original and to a lesser extend the DS one was okay
 
user15026
@BenBrocka The latest one, on the other hand....
 
4:25 PM
yoshis island advance was great
 
FAE
Bayonetta 2! :D
 
i still have it
 
FAE
...what the hell Nintendo stuff in Bayonetta
 
lololol
 
sweeti t has bayo 1. I can finally get a non awful version then (PS3 version isn't even worth trying I've heard)
 
4:28 PM
mayolettuce
 
midna and zelda in Hyrule warriors
 
what about captain falcon
or tingle
oh god tingle
 
CANVAS CURSE SEQUEL ON WII U
 
@ash i was just practicing animation
 
@BenBrocka I don't think I ever played the original.
Oh, wait, no I did.
 
4:31 PM
Hoenn confirmed for November 21, 2014, in the US! #OmegaRuby #AlphaSapphire http://bit.ly/1hM02rs
hahaha they did the thing
 
omegaruby?
huehuehue
 
user15026
@BenBrocka aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
 
user15026
(I might actually get a wii u, yet.)
 
Holy crap - another xenoblade chronicles
 
4:34 PM
Yep, it's a thing.
 
@5pike X was known for years (though not the full name)
 
@GnomeSlice Please practice animation with something productive.
 
@AshleyNunn Aaand another one
 
user15026
@Frank Flag them.
 
user15026
That's why we have flags.
 
4:35 PM
Is there something that can be done to punt this guy permanently?
@AshleyNunn It's what I'm doing, in addition to making you aware of them.

Q: timing out when trying to connect to my own server

Zetta SuroRecently I've been unable to connect to my Minecraft server which I play on with a friend. It seems my friend has been able to access it just fine, but every time I try to connect I get the error: connection lost: timed out The strange thing is, this happened seemingly out of nowhere while ...

 
@strix dont tell me what to do
 
user15026
@Frank The system will do what it is meant to do.
 
i mean you can
 
user15026
@GnomeSlice He has a point. You know stuff like that is likely to cause problems.
 
4:36 PM
UGH PHONE
jeez i was just trying to make you guys laugh
 
@GnomeSlice I guess you can animate whatever you like. But don't share them here if they're not appropriate.
 
user15026
@GnomeSlice Considering the mess that happened last time we had a flag issue in here....it's not that amusing.
 
what mess
 
user15026
The last time blues descended and things got deleted and people got banned.
 
oh I remember that
 
user15026
4:39 PM
Yeah.
 
i shouted at somebody
 
user15026
It sucked.
 
user15026
Let's a) not relive it and b) don't give people cause to think we are terrible people in here.
 
k well 'hurr durr flags dance' is still a thing, and its an amusing phrase
 
I'm not sure what happened or what's going on, but I think @badp is the most correct.
 
user15026
4:40 PM
@GnomeSlice Perhaps, in other places other than here.
 
user15026
Here, it is not appropriate.
 
nothing was even flagged
jeez
 
@Wipqozn But @badp is the worst!
Unless you are. Then you're the worst.
But otherwise, it's @badp. :P
 
@Frank I'm pretty sure @badp is the coolest mod. So we could call him @coolp, or @bestp!
 
Or @goodp as opposed to @badp.
 
4:42 PM
My informed opinion as most correct and most cool and most worst mod is that "hurr durr flags" is not a thing I want to encourage
Seeing it saddens me and it does nothing productive for stopping post-flag meltdowns
 
I told you that @badp was @mostcorrectp!
 
@GnomeSlice "hurr durr flags" should not be a thing. The fact that people think it is a thing is bad.
 
fine
 
The best way to avoid post-flag meltdowns is to flag correctly
6
 
user15026
Yes!
 
4:44 PM
spmebody else made a picture a while ago and it got stars so i figured hey people think this is funny
just nevermind
 
user15026
@GnomeSlice Yes, and we are trying to express that it isn't.
 
@badp The main problem with that, however, is that flags can come from the transcript, where no amount of education can change who flags what.
 
I appreciate your artistic endeavour, but not the message behind it
 
Other than wholesale banning, which I would wholeheartedly approve of.
 
4:45 PM
thats why you're not a mod
 
user15026
@GnomeSlice Don't.
 
user15026
@Frank I am not sure what this means. Flagging from the transcript doesn't automagically make them always terrible flags of terribad
 
@Frank That's not necessarily true. If we manage to notice a streak of poor flagging decisions from outside, we can still have a talk with that person.
 
@AshleyNunn No, but the thing is, you don't have to be in the room to flag something.
And you can flag things that are days, or weeks, old.
 
user15026
@Frank Yes, you can.
 
user15026
4:47 PM
That's not necessarily a bad thing. Can it be abused? sure, so can a lot of things on this network.
 
@Frank This is however not often what happens.
 
@Frank Stop worrying about how "utterly terrible" other people are, for heaven's sake.
 
user15026
Assuming bad faith on the part of flaggers is kinda...shitty.
 
@AshleyNunn Which is where the vast majority of out of context flagging happens, and hitting someone with a ban for something they said days ago, and is fine by room standards, sends the wrong message entirely.
 
user15026
@Frank .....
 
user15026
4:48 PM
how about we stop making people feel like crapnuggets every time they dare flag a thing?
12
 
@AshleyNunn This. Please.
 
user15026
Also, this out of context thing is REALLY, REALLY not as big of a problem as you are making it seem.
 
btw, this discussion is also aimed at the person who invented "hurr durr flags" in the first place - you, @FEichinger.
 
@AshleyNunn ...Nowhere have I said that that flagging is inherently bad at all.
I'm just pointing out that the potential for flagging has, and I believe continues to be, abused.
 
@badp Hey, I'm the one who keeps saying we need to stop arguing about this every fucking time.
 
user15026
4:49 PM
@Frank Perhaps, but you are making a lot of caveats about how you think it needs to happen.
 
(unless I'm missing prior art - but still, you used it, that's good enough for me)
@FEichinger and I'm the one saying that ridiculising people who argue about this every fucking time is a bad idea.
 
That said, I very rarely flag anything, and I will defend people's right to flag things as they are said in chat. I probably won't agree with those reasons most of the time, but they are entitled to their opinions.
 
@badp Ridiculing people who whine about every single fucking flag that isn't about GnomeSlice is a bad idea? Fuck that.
 
user15026
People need to just allow the system to work, and it means sometimes shit gets flagged for reasons you don't agree with. In the grand scheme of things, a half hour or hour chat ban is not a big deal. Make a snack. Go for a walk. Watch an episode of your favourite TV drama where everyone dies.
 
user15026
@FEichinger .....
 
4:51 PM
@AshleyNunn Or that E3 thing that was going on
 
user15026
@Batophobia I totally keep forgetting that is happening
 
user15026
and get confused when there is all this GAMING NEWS
 
@AshleyNunn If you've not seen it, look at the new Zelda thingy
 
user15026
@Batophobia No, because then I will WANT IT
 
@AshleyNunn you already do
 
user15026
4:53 PM
@Batophobia shush
 
user15026
;)
 
@Batophobia New Zelda thingy?
 
@Frank One that has been known for a while is the Hyrule Warriors thing, but there is another zelda thingy that they just announced on their E3 thing
 
@Batophobia You wouldn't happen to have a link, would you?
 
FAE
4:54 PM
@Batophobia It looked really pretty. Also, lasers.
 
@Frank Link to the Past?
 
It looks like they are planning to cross Zelda with Skyrim.
 
@Batophobia Whatever zelda thingy they're talking about.
 
couldn't stop myself, sorry for bad puns
 
@Batophobia That's called the transcript!
 
4:55 PM
Bad puns are baaaaad.
@Wipqozn would be so proud.
 
user15026
@Batophobia facepalm
 
Not bad enough to warrant a facedesk
 
FAE
Layton vs. Phoenix Wright coming to the west :o
 
You still have ways to go @Batophobia
 
@badp No, I save those for the times when a user breaks something within five minutes of being given access to something.
 
4:56 PM
@Frank Just had that happen this morning.
 
@Batophobia What's wrong with his hair
THAT IS NOT A HAIRSTYLE WORTHY OF THE HERO OF HYRULE
 
@Batophobia Yeah. Mine happened yesterday.
 
unless that isn't Link but then it's weirder still
 
Perhaps this is one of the 4 links from Four Swords?
 
@Frank Wow. Just wow
 
5:00 PM
@SaintWacko I haven't been paying attention to any of the E3 streams at all.
 
This is also a thing now
 
since you guys didnt like my dancing flags, what other bridge gifs can i make
suggestions
 
@GnomeSlice lazers
and sloths
 
@Batophobia Needs to be portal-style gels

Q: Is 'end of the line' the final update?

ChipperymanThe name kind of implies that it's the last update. Is this the case? Or will the be another one?

 
@GnomeSlice A gif involving me.
 
watching Goldeneye?
 
Aww, Zelda is 2015.
 
@Lazers End of the Line isn't the final update... and in fact, Valve already has another update already in the works (name unknown, only that it involves a Moonbase)
Speaking of which, if rumors are correct, the End of the Line update will be seeing action on Friday or so this week.
 
5:12 PM
@Frank Very rude to be sure.
 
Oh right, people who don't follow TF2 won't know that End of the Line is completely community contributed.
Therefore, anything Valve is working on won't be part of it. Valve's new update seems to be on course for whenever they complete the current arc in the rarely published Team Fortress 2 comics.
 
@Frank No, I meant the pun
That was awful
@GnomeSlice I liked them
 
@SaintWacko But not @Wipqozn bad.
He has the truly awful puns.
Or @TrentHawkins; he regularly receives glares from me.
 
@Frank Thank you! I'm glad to know you have such a high opinion of my sense of humour.
 
@Wipqozn Your sense of humor sucks.
 
5:17 PM
But you should make an animation with the mothership and lazers
 
I'm surprised it can even be classified as such.
 
@wipqozn post that tortoise swoosh thing
 
@Wipqozn did he ever give you one without the background?
Or the text?
@RonanForman Gimme one without the text and the background
 
@GnomeSlice I'm not sure why I would ever want that.
@GnomeSlice You're an artist designer computer graphics guy. Make it yourself! BE AMBITIOUS!
 
5:20 PM
no
 
So you can either wait 3 weeks for me to get the original or tonight when I can redraw something similar.
 
Unacceptable!
 
@Wipqozn You're a computer programmer guy. Decompile it yourself!
(the computer programming equivalent of what you told GnomeSlice)
 
Let me try to fudge the parts with the text.
k fack this
 
2 mins ago, by GnomeSlice
no
 
5:24 PM
give me something else to do
 
@GnomeSlice How about animations involving some classic Arqade questions?
 
@Batophobia How can I tell if a corpse is safe to eat?
 
@Wipqozn among countless others
 
somebody draw me a corpse
k nvm i dont want to do this any more
 
5:26 PM
@GnomeSlice that de-escalated quickly
 
5:45 PM
I hope we see more of the new Zelda during E3.

Q: Amazon Dodge Skills Practical? How do they work? (Diablo II)

TheNeeooI'm looking to make a Bowazon (probably Strafe centered, I'm not sure what other builds are viable) The dodge skills sound great, but I'm curious as to how they work/how practical putting multiple points in them are. Not because I worry about the decreased bonuses as the skill gets higher (event...

Q: How do I get an achievement for breaking the game?

ZibbobzGoat Simulator has an achievement called "Involuntary QA", where if the game crashes while you are playing it, you get an achievement. Twice while trying to pause the game and opening the Steam Console, my game crashed. I was pretty excited to get the rare game-crashing achievement, but when ...

 
@BenBrocka ... and as a present, you get another game by Team Ninja

> This is baby olinguito is a newly discovered mammal that's part of the raccoon family and can be found in high elevations of South America. In May of this year, the International Institute for Species Exploration declared the olinguito one of the "Top 10 New Species of 2014."
I want to be in the top 10 new species of 2014 :(
I am now creating my own species. homo agent86us
BAM, deal with it International Institute for Species Exploration
 
@agent86 They'll just declare your species invalid.
@BenBrocka Speaking of, hopefully they announce a new Metroid game.
We need more Samus.
 
:O
invalid???
nooooooooooooooooooooooo
THATS RACIST
ALSO ITS AN ENDANGERED SPECIES
SO LIKE THATS PROBABLY ILLEGAL
 
user15026
Not racist. Speciesist!
 
@AshleyNunn That just doesn't have the same ring to it.
 
[sarah mclachlan song] who will stand up for the endangered agent86us'es, who have been mercilessly invalidated almost to extinction? for only $5 a week, you could support a discriminated against agent86us in his long-suffering road to become a top new species of 2014.

@OrigamiRobot Wat WAT
 
6:38 PM
@chippies hi
 
Jin
@GnomeSlice you called?
 
@GnomeSlice +1
 
@Jin do you have vectors for the mothership? And can I have them?
 
Jin
@GnomeSlice send me an email at jin@stackexchange.com

6:43 PM
@badp think of it as an RPG quest...
that gives no xp
 
The guy ahead of me had the gall to try and use her mother's loyalty card without a legally valid permit by the cardholder
 
Phew, yay incident reports
 
@Jin Not quite - He now knows that malls are awful.
 
@badp WHAT A GUY
 
"No you can't do that. Let me check. No you can't do that. Let me double check. No you can't do that. Um, wait, yes, you can, so long as you know what your mother is called and what she was called. 10 more minutes of bickering on the phone"
As for me, I had the gall of wanting to pay with a card.
 
6:45 PM
@jin i accidentally signed it 'genome'
 
"Apparently the whole card system was unstable in the shopping center. Maybe you can try withdrawing from an ATM. guy behind me with a single piece of bread interjects No we tried it doesn't work. Also it doesn't work anywhere in this place."
She insisted that I tried anyway, but I didn't have enough cash to pay for everything, so I painstackingly picked things until I could pay no more and left the rest behind.
I had to insist for the privilege in order to not waste any more time.

Q: Should you let the minions destroy the tower?

Philipp SanderIs watched some pro (LCS, All-Stars, ...) and really high elo games lately and noticed that the towers are always shot low to about 5% but then no champion damage is dealt to the tower. (When you want to kill a champion below such a low tower you should destroy it) Why is this done? Should i do...

is there a live E3 stream going on right now?

@Jin yes, but Nintendo's main conference ended 2 hours ago
 
Oh what exciting things were announced? Nothing?

i may get downvoted for saying this... I don't care about Zelda. was never a fan of the series..

WAIT!
where's my tag in this room? /cry
ok I love Zelda
 
New Kirby (canvas curse sequel), Yarn Yoshi re-reveal (looks great), paint-based shooter new IP weird thing, open world zelda, some Toad game, NFC crap, Midna and Zelda playable in Hyrule Warriors, Bayonetta 1 included in Bayo 2

@Jin Sweet, lasers included.
 
Jin
@GnomeSlice i originally did it in bitmap for the site. I only did the vector version for the shirt printing, which was a pain in the ass to do. Illustrator sucks as snapping to grids for pixel art.
 
Open world Zelda? You mean the Zelda Skyward Sword tried kind of to be?
 
6:52 PM
I didn't watch a single person die during this event, Nintendo loses E3
 
Jin
I'm more excited about the Dynasty Zelda
@BenBrocka btw, your xbone account made it on reddit front page yesterday
i'm sure you got tons of followers
 
@Jin Illustrator seems like it would be bad for pixel art. I did my avatar in it and I drew an actual grid first using the grid tool, then just used live paint to fill it in, then expanded and removed the grid.
 
That's probably the reason for the 600 new followers and innumerable retweets
IIRC they linked a picture of a tweet instead of the tweet though because lolreddit
 
My parody account sucks, all hail sirtaptap
 
Jin
my main twitter account is a parody
 
6:53 PM
Also I haven't tweeted on it in like a year.
22 whole followers.
 
@Jin you obviously don't tweet enough food pics
 
Jin
@BenBrocka i do on my Instagram account
although i've been slacking lately. mostly because I rarely leave my house.
 
I only twitter. Don't like multiple apps. And instagram's web UI is a joke anyway
 
@Jin Make more food yourself?
is completely stuffed with leftovers
 
Jin
@Arperum I only make ramen at home. it's pretty good!
 
6:57 PM
I'm sad nobody starred my user destruction gif
I spent like 10 minutes on that.
 
I don't post food pics because the rest of the room would grow unexplained fits of anger and frustration in my general direction at all the Italian food we eat nonchalantly
sage nod of humble sadness
 
@badp Very much this. I would sit at my desk and cry.
 
Jin
@GnomeSlice i forget.. were you the one who made this gif? or was it @badp?
 
Lol it's all valve shit
@Jin badp
 
6:59 PM
@Jin Did that gif accidentally a loved one?
