@AshleyNunn You should see the latest Doctor Who episode. It features a really sexy library.
 
12:29 AM
Bridge, what show should I start after I finish season 7 of Supernatural?
 
@Fluttershy Have you ever watched It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia?
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Yep.
 
If not, watch a few episodes of that and laugh, very very hard.
Oh. Well then.
House of Cards is pretty great.
Alternately, you have a few days less than exactly one month to rewatch all of Arrested Development before new episodes.
 
Ooh... That's a valid point.
 
Is it against the etiquette policy to edit your answer to match someone else? I recently put in 15-20 minutes of effort to research a well thought out response, only to have the first responder edit their post with information that I provided.
 
12:36 AM
@CaesiumFarmer It's generally considered poor form, yeah.
 
Is that something I should flag a post for?
 
@CaesiumFarmer No, but it's certainly a valid reason to downvote.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz alright, I can't downvote yet but it's something to keep in mind. I don't care all that much about rep but I think it's intolerable to have someone with higher rep than me sweep in a poach my answers.
This was the post I was concerned about. I had +2 before the other responder edited their post and then had their response be the accepted answer. If this starts to be the norm I don't really want to stick around to contribute. I don't have any incentive to contribute if my research is going to be poached without any credit given.

12:55 AM
@CaesiumFarmer For reference, I accepted the other one because it did include one thing I didn't see in yours (that cities have minimum food/production) and included the implications in that, strategy-wise, into how that affects your choice of city location. It gives more information in general than yours, and is formatted in a more useful way.
Your answer is still good, and I upvoted yours.
That said, I vaguely remember that user doing something suspect in the past (although I don't remember exactly what). It's hard to pick between two answers, as the asker, when they both provide information the other doesn't.

Q: What are the difference between tanks from different countries?

user1337I want to find out what the difference between defensive and offensive "specializations" of tanks in the various trees are. Something like (and this is what I heard a friend mention) "German tanks are heavier armored and have precise guns, French are just bulky and Russians have fast tanks). Bas...

 
@StrixVaria thank you very much for clarification. I didn't address food because you didn't ask about it, but that's no big deal. The reason I was concerned was that the other user blatantly incorporated my information about hill and river city combat into their answer after I responded but didn't credit me in any way.
 
@CaesiumFarmer I didn't ask about it because I didn't really know what I was asking about :P That's why I was asking. I spent a good while trying to figure out just how to word my question.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Ahaha. I should do that.
 
@StrixVaria I can appreciate that. I'll try to comment for clarification more in the future.
 
1:26 AM
Why is lazers grumpy?
 
@Ktash because he was lazers once and it was awful. :P

Q: How can I keep my Embermage alive?

Jonah BishopThe Embermage class, unlike the other three available classes in Torchlight 2, seems to lack any decent defensive spells: Death's Bounty is arguably the most useful defensive spell, allowing you to recoup health and mana from enemies under this spell's effect Immolation Aura can absorb 5%, 10%,...

 
@CaesiumFarmer GASP How dare you?! You take that back this instant!
 
@Ktash oh no, did I just fall into some inside joke trap? :/
 
Sorry, hold on, got to find it...
lost it, just a sec

@YiJiang'sEvilClone I see. It's all @badp's fault. Should have guessed.
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone That font hurts my eyes.
 
@Ktash Duh. It's always @badp's fault
 
Sorry, lapse of judgement. I will resume blaming @badp
 
(Unless the Wheel tells you otherwise. In which case, it's @badp and the person whom the Wheel blames' fault)
 
1:40 AM
?
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone I like it
 
It's my fault! Wheeee~
 
Also, the sarcasm mark is copyrighted? I protest!
 
Apparently this wireless adapter for my 360 throttles the bandwidth. =(
 
1:48 AM
The adapter throttling bandwidth?
Did you tell it to?
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Nope.
And, maybe throttling was a bad choice of words. But it doesn't do as well as my laptop does.

Q: Fallout 3 cheat

user47696I've got a problem with my savefiles and lost about one to two hours of gameplay. During this time I travelled to the children village little Lamplight and made my way to the vault, I think it's number 87. While I found the quests to be very interesting, I'm not keen on repeating them and would ...

There's something wrong with this question. I'm reading the FO3 wiki to remind myself what the main quests are, and it seems like the Vault 83 quest comes after the Little Lampshade ones
Which invalidates at least part of the question
 
What throws me off is why the asker deleted their profile right afer asking. o_o
 
Yes, that too. And now I can't ask for clarification
Oh, I understand the question now
He's saying that he's already travelling to Vault 83, and since the main quest line requires him to complete the two Little Lampshade quests first he wants to skip those since he doesn't want to go there

@Fluttershy @Ktash @LessPop_MoreFizz @kalina @ashleynunn where my people at? It's Sunday night....we should be drunk or at least talking about booze
 
2:44 AM

no one is here lets post ponies
 
@spugsley So you have to be drunk around me to have a good time?
 
@Ktash nah...I'm just being honest about the typical Sunday night in the bridge :p
 
@spugsley I was drunk last night. Where were you?
 
@spugsley Well, I'm never drunk
 
Morning -_-

moose and dancer and such
 
Stuck in Black Mesa... again.
I think I'm suppose to go back up this ladder, but I can't reach it
 
@Fluttershy I worked a 14 hour wedding yesterday
 
There's a ladder in the oxygen supply silo, but the bottom rungs are broken, and as far as I can see there's nothing up there
 
3:10 AM
Wargame AirLand Battle beta is so awesome!
 
@spugsley Oh? Didja shoot some people?
Also, I need a good frame-by-frame video editor. Anyone know of one?
Preferably free?
 
@Fluttershy Yes....annnnd they wanted an 'after wedding' shoot. It was....borderline pornographic?
you be the judge.
those are just the tasteful images so take that like....10x further
 
That's... huh...
 
@spugsley Ummm... interesting
 
I wouldn't really call that "borderline". o_o
 
3:15 AM
@Fluttershy right....there are some with more skin
awesome photos but suppppppper weird
 
That second to last one is very close to showing a bit more than I think she'd want...
 
@Ktash UM NO. she wanted A LOT and he was like NOT TOO MUCH
 
@spugsley Heh, well then, she almost got her way lol
 
@Ktash right lol
 
1 min ago, by Fluttershy
That's... huh...
 
3:16 AM

yummmm coooooookiesssss
 
They're a very cute couple
 
You never brought me my frisco melt. =(
 
@Ktash they are :)
 
... how long into the evening did you stay...
 
@Fluttershy ....I told you it was just too far
@Ktash farther than we should have, but not that far lol
 
3:18 AM
@spugsley haha, did they ask you to step out, or was she looking for more pictures lol
 
@Ktash lol she wanted waaaaay more pictures and he was like "nope time to go" lololol
 
Haha, adventurous lady
 
and we were like "yeah we're leaving"
 
I like her already
 
lol
she was freaking awesome
 
3:19 AM
So far I'm sold... too bad she's taken
 
and my boss lady made a comment like "Good thing these aren't for facebook" and she made the most hilarious face and was like "Who said they weren't for facebook?" And her husband was like "NO."
 
Hahaha, I really like this lady. What's her name again ;)
 
@Ktash :p nope
 
curses, foiled again
 
tee hee :p
 
3:21 AM
 
@spugsley you do realize her name is on the website, right? ;)
 
Well, Bridge, I'm out for the night. Gotta wake up and run tomorrow.
 
@Ktash lol yes but that's less funny :p and don't be creepin on her
@Fluttershy NO
 
@spugsley To which part?
 
@spugsley Haha, I'm weird, not creepy.
 
3:24 AM
@Fluttershy running and sleeping
@Ktash lol
 
@spugsley Sorry. Both of those are definitely gonna happen. =P
 
@Fluttershy NO I SAY
 
Guess you should've brought me that frisco melt...
 
HI @GnomeSlice I SEE YOUUUUUU
 
@spugsley You're the only one I spend time fawning over on the internet, but I don't hide that at all. I'm very up front in my compliments and photo stocking ;)
 
3:26 AM
@Ktash :p don't tell @ashleynunn
 
Welp... Looks like it's about time for me to be hittin' the old... dusty trail...
 
lol wtf
@Fluttershy is that a euphemism for masturbation?
4
 
@spugsley ... No. No it's not.
 
@Fluttershy ....okay......if you say so.....
 
@spugsley Well, her as well. Though she isn't here right now so...
 
3:29 AM
Hi, guy who's back on the site!
 
@spugsley О_о
 
@spyder it's a valid question!
there are a lot of euphemisms for monkey wrestling
is that one? I made it up
@spyder O_O OH GOD
MY EYESSSSSSS
 
@Ktash I fixed it :) thanks
 
@Krazer You missed the most important one.
@Retrosaur As someone who finds the pony shit pretty damned insufferable, I have to say that this is the wrong way to go about expressing it.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Thanks.
 
The last thing you want to do is feed the pony persecution complex, because it is definitely not worth dealing with.
 
@spugsley Missed one, in the website field itself ;)
 
3:53 AM
@LessPop_MoreFizz we have a lot of users who like it and while I agree that @YiJiang'sEvilClone shouldn't have spammed it, letting our users talk about it shouldn't be a problem
2
@Ktash got it! :)
 
@spugsley Looks all clear :)
 
@spugsley Right. Like I said, personally, I find it insufferable, but I find that there is a net decrease in annoying pony chat if I don't waste my digital breath complaining about annoying pony chat, and instead just ignore it.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz righto
 
Fair enough, I went over the top there
but you didn't have to attack me over "flagging" others
Even when it was pretty obvious
 
@spugsley How much digital manipulation do you do on the photos you post on Flickr?
 
3:56 AM
@YiJiang'sEvilClone I'm not going to start an argument. I don't spam my photos. I share them periodically when asked.
 
Eh? That's not what I'm asking about at all
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone oh lol sorry, my fault :p
was getting defensive for no reason
 
@Retrosaur spamming multiple flags in a very short period of time - especially when the hide messages and ignore buttons are both available to you, isn't really appropriate when the messages themselves are individually innocuous. If you must, you can use a direct mod attention flag (click the triangle to the left of the message, and select 'Flag for Moderator'), and type out your complaint for a mod to directly review. Chat flags of the sort you spammed are for truly egregious material.
 
@spugsley pls shakes head
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone It depends on the photo but it's usually moderate amounts to WHOA a lot
@LessPop_MoreFizz I love the word egregious. Gives me shivers
 
3:59 AM
@spugsley ur egregious.
 
@TimStone I said sorry :(
@LessPop_MoreFizz :( but also :3
 
@spugsley I know, I just showed up to cause trouble.
 
:p
@YiJiang'sEvilClone if you ask about a specific photo I could tell you but it's a pretty wide range. I guess that's a better way to put it lol

Q: How do I play against GLaDos in Poker Night 2?

RetrosaurFor some reason, the game's a lot more difficult than the first iteration, and from what I've heard, you can get Glados to join the competition. How is this accomplished? For some reason, the only people I can actually play against are Ash, Brock, CL4P-TP (official designated name), and Max.

Paul MarshallIn A Valley Without Wind 2, there are Stratospheric Citadels that, supposedly, you can't complete unless you have Triple Jump.

Q: Hide DLC weapons

kotekzotGetting in and out of a shop quickly can be a big thing in Killing Floor.

@Yawus bye :)
 
Oh wow. It's possible to play "co-op" in SC4 by simply using Dropbox to sync the region files across the different player's computers
Anyone feel like doing this? We could get something like this together I think
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone it's like good old TBS with multiplayer via e-mail :)
 
Yeah, but you don't have to wait for the email, since you're developing different cities in the same region
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone How often you need to sync?
 
6:41 AM
Dropbox syncs automatically
 
Almost real-time game?
 
No, you're not going to be playing the same city as other players. You're only sharing the region.
 
No, no. I mean, a region is updated in real-time
 
No, of course not. SC4 doesn't reload the region files like that.
 
Well then this is a terrible crutch :)
 
6:46 AM
Not really. It's very elegant, compared to what SimCity offers
