Q: Who knows Dark Magic?

When playing Harry Potter Years 5-7, I noticed there are things only Wizards with Dark Magic can interact with. I figure these are things I will have to go back and do later, as right now I don't have anyone in my party that can use Dark Magic. Which characters in the game use Dark Magic? Who i...

Two questions. 1) how do you do spoiler text in an answer, and 2) do we have to mark everything about Skyward Sword as spoilers?

@AshleyNunn > ! spoiler text here

Everything? No. Just because it's a new game doesn't mean everything needs to be in spoilers. If it's something related to the plot/story or the solution to a puzzle, it's often put behind spoilers.

user15026

Okay, cool.

user15026

@FallenAngelEyes I noticed people were using it for almost everything, and that was new for me (I hadn't seen it used that often for any other game), so I wanted to double check that I wasn't crossing any rules or decisions that had been made. :)

@AshleyNunn It's hard, as spoilers can be subjective for many people. The general consensus is that the entire question should not be behind a spoiler tag, and there should be something substantial to say that is not spoilered.

user15026

Right, that makes sense. But if I am vague in how I refer to things, that would also work (as in not giving out specific locations, etc)?

2:39 PM

Ultimately, quality of the question has to take priority over hiding spoilers

user15026

@FallenAngelEyes Agreed. :) I dont want to be like "How do I do stuff in the place with the things?". That isn't helpful at all. XD

@AshleyNunn Haha yeeeeeah

What you can do is be vague in your non-spoilered bit, then clearer in a spoilered bit if you are concerned about it

That way, all the information is still there in both forms

user15026

That strikes me as the best plan. :)

user15026

Thanks for the advice!

@FallenAngelEyes I don't think you can have a space between the > and the !

@YiJiang Seems to still work the same way as >!

Q: How many Master Assassins can I train?

1

After I train a Master Assassin is it possible to train another to that rank in that den?

Q: What is the relationship between Goddess Cubes and Chests?

What is the relationship between Goddess Cubes and Chests? Does each cube correspond to a specific chest, is it a sequence of chests or just unlocks random chests?

Gonna go play some more Saints Row methinks

@FallenAngelEyes Have fun!

Q: Can anyone suggest tricks for targeting specific units in a big army?

3:14 PM

0

Often the engagement of 2 big armies is just a mass of graphics. Sometimes though you know something is coming. Like a Ghost with an EMP, or a High Templar with Psionic Storm, etc. In these engagements you'd obviously want to do what you can to kill these units before they get a chance to do t...

Quick Poll: Is 10:30 AM too early to add vodka to my beverage?

N.B. The most annoying individuals that I have the ill fortune to be related to are in town.

user15026

@LessPop_MoreFizz Depends on the beverage ;)

@AshleyNunn (soft) cider

Anna Lear

Go for it. You have my permission. :P

@AnnaLear Sweet.

user15026

3:26 PM

@LessPop_MoreFizz grins sounds like a plan to me!

Now the question is which vodka

I am thinking sweet tea vodka will not mix well with cider. Which means Ketel it is.

user15026

@LessPop_MoreFizz Sweet tea vodka? There is such a thing?

@AshleyNunn fireflyvodka.com/splash/?r

user15026

@LessPop_MoreFizz That is very intriguing. :)

@AshleyNunn It makes an amazing hard Arnold Palmer.

(i.e. half lemonade, half sweet tea vodka)

user15026

3:28 PM

@LessPop_MoreFizz I imagine it would! :)

user15026

@LessPop_MoreFizz Also, I didn't know that drink had a name.

Q: Does the "Third and 30" achievement count across multiple saves?

1

The requirement for the "Third and 30" achievement says Spend over 30 hours in Steelport. If I have 20 hours on one save file and 10 on another, will I get the achievement? Or does this have to be completed with 30 hours in on one save file?

Hey all

user15026

waves Hello :)

@AshleyNunn Howdy

Sorry I don't have much more to say.

so you all were talking about drinking?

user15026

@RedriderX Sort of. :P

@AshleyNunn Isn't a bit early for that?

user15026

@RedriderX I don't judge ;)

4:11 PM

@AshleyNunn ya i suppose not

So do any of you think that more games will be tacked on the current humble bundle?

It would be the first HIB that doesn't do that

AFAIK

that said I'm afraid there might not be extra goodies this time around

user15026

@RedriderX It's possible, they usually do. :)

user15026

@badp Oh? What makes you say that?

@AshleyNunn It's just a feeling

I mean, Introversion has nothing more to add to the bundle

@badp ya it seem there not much else too add.

user15026

4:15 PM

@badp It almost feels to me like they are running out of things to do, as well - they've overlapped stuff lately.

the only thing they could add is something from Prison Architect

it is all of intorversions games

@badp oh is that finished?

and I don't believe they have nothing ready except the promise to get something about it in the future

and there is the actually HIB#4 coming soon i suppose...

user15026

@RedriderX I almost think they have done too many - they're not as "rare" and "interesting" to me anymore - I find I usually have at least part (if not most, or all) of the bundle already, either from past bundles, or other sources.

4:18 PM

@AshleyNunn ya me too.

and the fact that Desura had to split off and make their own bundle doesn't help.

TBQH, I feel like HIB needs to take a break.

They've done too many too often and are running out of games to sell.

user15026

@LessPop_MoreFizz I agree with you, for sure.

Running it less often means that by the time they're ready to do another, there's a better variety availiable for them to include.

user15026

@LessPop_MoreFizz Exactly! I tihnk they are just grasping at straws sometimes.

@LessPop_MoreFizz "But it's for charity !"

why is that not italicizing?

4:21 PM

@RedriderX You have an extraneous space.

charity vs. _charity _

I WANT ITALICIZING!

@LessPop_MoreFizz oh okay

_charity_ vs. _charity _

goddamnit, it italicizes within backticks

@LessPop_MoreFizz my bad

oh, nevermind, it just took a second to correct itself.

chat is wierd sometimes.

Arda Xi

Hey guys.

4:22 PM

i just like italicizing, you know...

Yo @ArdaXi
