The Tarpit's Silliness

Speaking of the thousands of GitHub users I've followed...

you may have been using automated measures to follow thousands of users.

HighlyRadioactive

Pffft.

petStorm

Trust me, I followed thousands of users completely by clicking them one by one.

HighlyRadioactive

for years?

petStorm

@HighlyRadioactive Nope, just in a day.

To be precise I followed 8k users.

HighlyRadioactive

OMG where did you find so many users

petStorm

10:30

@HighlyRadioactive I just opened up a user, looked at what organizations they're in.

HighlyRadioactive

Oh well.

petStorm

And then, the web extends out to contain so many users that I can't possibly follow them all.

And after I followed 11.1k users, my account got flagged...

I deserve my punishment.

HighlyRadioactive

Almost no one will follow 8k users in an evening.

Insane.

petStorm

(*In an evening, to be precise)

After I followed all of them, I (evidently) got sleep deprived.

But I was very relieved that I achieved my goal of following 1000 users.

HighlyRadioactive

Why do you want to follow 1000 users

Speaking of it

petStorm

10:36

@HighlyRadioactive You know, to find more people to add to the (to-be) largest organization on GitHub.

Currently there are only 39 people over there in the organization.

Since these 1000 people follow & star GH stuff, it w ould be easier to find users that will respond immediately to my requests to add them in the organization.

HighlyRadioactive

I wish I had 1000 code-golf answers

But I'm not good at golfing.

Oops, my damn network.

petStorm

@HighlyRadioactive Answer this in every language on TIO.

HighlyRadioactive

There are only 6 people in the Random-People thing?

petStorm

(And now, you have 681 answers to start with!)

@HighlyRadioactive Yep, because my account is flagged..

HighlyRadioactive

@petStorm <s>1+ warning!</s>

petStorm

10:39

@HighlyRadioactive Every request I gave to other users have disappeared with my account's deletion.

@HighlyRadioactive You do this: ---1+ warning!--- -> ~~1+ warning!~~

HighlyRadioactive

Oh, no.

@petStorm Intended, though.

petStorm

@HighlyRadioactive Why so? It's an intended side-effect of following thousands of users.

HighlyRadioactive

If you try to cross "1+ warning" the + will look like something weird

@petStorm Why are you trying to delete your account

petStorm

@HighlyRadioactive My account is being deleted along with the flag.

I don't have supervising control with that.

HighlyRadioactive

It's an intended side-effect of following thousands of users.

petStorm

10:43

It's an intended side-effect of following thousands of users.

HighlyRadioactive

(Though, I'm highly off-topic now, this is general discussion for codegolf.stackexchange.com, not chitchat room.)

petStorm

HighlyRadioactive -> HighlyOfftopic

HighlyRadioactive

~~Back to the topic: Is there an 1+ prime-checking program available anywhere?~~

petStorm

Idea: You get paid for trusting someone else.

Would you want to get paid or trust someone else?

HighlyRadioactive

Wait wat?

~~Goodbye, Mr. Heavyrain.~~

I are serious cat. This is serious chatroom.

petStorm

10:48

@HighlyRadioactive Grammatical errors isn't funny...

@HighlyRadioactive Idea: Your doctor prepared an illness for you, would you take it?

(Hint: I'm talking about vaccines here.)

@HighlyRadioactive Wait wat? You're a cat?

Previously you're a pony (TwilightSparkle).

What kind of wizardry is that?

@HighlyRadioactive Here's a quick tip: try to answer every newerst question.

Because FGITW.

petStorm

Ahh, nobody here to talk to me now? :)

chat.stackexchange.com/rooms/info/107076/…

It's an awesome chatroom, you should really come in!

It covers everything that's off-topic even on Primes and Squares.

I.e. superfulous words and nonsense.

This chatroom is just for chit-chatting.

It's a unique chatroom because nobody else has created it before!

When I searched for similar chatrooms, I found none!

Adám

11:12

@petStorm Did you want to talk to me?

petStorm

@Adám No, I wanted to add excessive rooms for every single CGCC user.

HighlyRadioactive

@petStorm The power of Friendship Magic.

in Room for wizzwizz4, 24 secs ago, by wizzwizz4

Mind if I clear them up?

HighlyRadioactive

@petStorm They are too hard.

Adám

@petStorm That doesn't sound like a nice thing to do. I'm actually working, and you caused me to wast time.

HighlyRadioactive

11:17

Ah, I'm the only person in the chitchat room?

Hey, who starred my cat message?

wizzwizz4

@petStorm Unless you have any major objections in the next few minutes, I'm going to delete those rooms.

John Dvorak

none from me

HighlyRadioactive

superfulous words and nonsense.

petStorm

None from me.

HighlyRadioactive

Major objection.

wizzwizz4

11:19

@HighlyRadioactive If you want to keep yours, that's fine. I'm not deleting any that people are using (apart from my own).

HighlyRadioactive

oaky.

2

wizzwizz4

Interestingly, the UI can't keep up if you delete a room too soon after joining it.

Lyxal

Hooray for that!

Tremendous!

Absolutely superb

So uh now what?

Can we keep this room please

It'd be really great

Seeing as how my request was approved, I'll start posting here

I present to you Undergolf. A CGCC themed Undertale story.

HighlyRadioactive

What's interesting with "okay"?

Lyxal

Long ago, two races ruled over programming :

CODERS and GOLFERS

wizzwizz4

11:30

Here in TNB, we star everything mentioning typos or stars.

Lyxal

One day, war broke out between the two races

wizzwizz4

That that's the one thing that stays the same. (Well, that and Adám.)

Lyxal

After a long battle, the coders were victorious.

HighlyRadioactive

Huh.

Lyxal

They sealed the golfers on a separate stack exchange with a magical spell.

Many years later...

HNQ, 201x

Legends say that those who follow links from the hnq never return.

Lyxal

11:34

Usually, thisd be the character naming screen, but our players name is Frisk. Be it's canon that's why.

Frisk wakes up on a bed of golden flowers. They see a door to the right and walk through.

Adám

Lyxal

Flowey: Howdy! I'm FLOWEY. FLOWEY the GOLFER.

...: Hmmmm

...: You're new to CGCC, aren't'cha?

petStorm

Weird. I never heard of that rule before.

Lyxal

...: Golly! You must be so confused!

...: Someone ought to teach you how things work around here.

...: I guess little old me will have to do.

...: Ready? Here we go!

A tutorial battle begins

wizzwizz4

@petStorm It's not really a rule. More a bad habit.

There is an exception to the star rule, though.

HEY GIMME STARS PLZ.

See? No stars.

Lyxal

11:41

Flowey: See that picture? That's your PROFILE, the very culmination of your digital being.

petStorm

I tried to be ironical (by starring on that comment), but my voting was cleared by a moderator...

Lyxal

...: Your PROFILE starts off weak, but can grow strong if you gain a lot of LV.

petStorm

Aaaargh! Chat is evil!

wizzwizz4

@petStorm I wonder who that could've been.

Lyxal

...: What's LV stand for? Why LOVE of course!

HighlyRadioactive

11:42

I starred it.

wizzwizz4

Argh. It's impossible to predict when you'll get stars in here.

petStorm

@HighlyRadioactive Thank you! (A lot)

HighlyRadioactive

Yay!

Lyxal

...: You want some LOVE don't you?

HighlyRadioactive

~~I stared at it.~~

Lyxal

11:43

...: Don't worry... I'll share some with you!

...: Are here, LOVE is spread through...

petStorm

Star bait

People, please.

@wizzwizz4 ^ An exception to that rule.

Lyxal

...: Solving challenges with really long solutions!

Flowey prepares some challenges to solve

wizzwizz4

That was four years ago‽

2

Lyxal

Flowey: Are you ready? Solve as many as you can!

HighlyRadioactive

Wow.

I'm not even aware of that room.

Lyxal

11:46

Frisk solves a code golf challenge in a large amount of bytes

HighlyRadioactive

~~When I saw that room I immediately thinks it's another excessive room by petStorm.~~

wizzwizz4

It was back during Winter Bash, when you could get a hat for getting a message starred in chat.

Lyxal

Flowey: You IDIOT!

wizzwizz4

Obviously, people were filling TNB with star-baity messages.

HighlyRadioactive

We need more discussion about code golf -> ~~We need more discussion about 1+~~

Lyxal

11:47

...: In this world, it's golf or BE golfed.

...: Why would ANYONE pass up an opportunity like this?!

Frisk's long answer gets extremely down voted

Flowey: DIE!

Flowey starts laughing as people vote to delete the answer

wizzwizz4

… Fine. Figured out how to translate [ and ] yet?

Adám

I'll be happy to discuss code golfing ― in APL.

petStorm

I'll be happy to discuss code golfing ― in Set Theory.

Lyxal

@wizzwizz4 you were saying?

HighlyRadioactive

@wizzwizz4 Nope. ~~I'm too lazy~~

petStorm

11:50

@Lyxal 'Cmon, give that message a star!

wizzwizz4

@Lyxal I keep clearing the stars of that message and they keep coming back.

I give up.

Lyxal

The post gets protected by a moderator

;P

petStorm

@wizzwizz4 I knew it was you.

HighlyRadioactive

The double account guy.

Talking while chatting

wizzwizz4

Who's got two accounts now?

Lyxal

11:52

Aaaand that's where I'm leaving it for now.

petStorm

wizzwizz4's probably going to delete one of them. Wait and see.

Lyxal

Toriel will appear next time.

Bye for now!

HighlyRadioactive

(jk)

Lyxal

Hey can y'all not delete the chitchat room?

Because i kinda want to continue using it

HighlyRadioactive

@Lyxal Me too

wizzwizz4

11:54

Legitimate rooms are fine. The bot cleans those up when they're abandoned.

petStorm

@Lyxal applause

Awesome play!

Lyxal

Play?

Bruh it's a parody of an rpg video game popular in 2016

HighlyRadioactive

I won the nineteenth byte. Who is going to win the 20th?

Lyxal

Do you not even do memes bro?

petStorm

Me! I'm going to create the room.

wizzwizz4

11:56

Isn't it the 18th after the nineteenth?

@petStorm Please don't.

Lyxal

@HighlyRadioactive joe.

2

petStorm

@wizzwizz4 Yeah, the -1th is after the 18th.

HighlyRadioactive

I thought the -2147483648th is after the 18th.

wizzwizz4

@Lyxal I think you misspelt Jon.

Lyxal

@wizzwizz4 no, i meant to say Joe

I definitely meant Joe

100 % meant Joe

But really though. I did.

HighlyRadioactive

11:58

But since the 18th is after the nineteenth

100% = 0%

Lyxal

Joe's really great at creating chat rooms y'know.

petStorm

On the bright side it's nonsense.

HighlyRadioactive

So...

Adám

Guy's, can you take this to the chit-chat room?

3

wizzwizz4

If you want messages moved, I can impersonate a RO for you.

petStorm

12:01

My excessive rooms turn out to be useful after all. :)

HighlyRadioactive

and BOWLERS

> Gain 1+ interest

> Create 1+ room

Lyxal

Man, it looks like updog in here.

HighlyRadioactive

> profit

Adám

@wizzwizz4 I suggest you do that, and also clear the star board for all today's messages.

petStorm

25-9 = 16? What have I been doing wrong?

Adám

12:03

@petStorm What do you mean?

petStorm

I mean nothing.

wizzwizz4

Moved chit-chat.

petStorm

The messages are still here...

Refresh. The auto refresh thing appears to have stopped working quite right.

HighlyRadioactive

Slowly takes off sunglasses

HighlyRadioactive

12:45

Good.

petStorm

13:20

@Lyxal Flowey didn't obey the "be kind" rule of our Code of Conduct.

@Lyxal Why didn't Frisk program in 05AB1E in the first place?

petStorm

14:01

Bad.

TTB sounds like a knockoff of TNB.
