@ThomasMcDonald I saw that question. I'm not sure why it has both starcraft and starcraft-2 for starters.

Spine Crawler and Roach are both starcraft-2 units.

@ThomasMcDonald fixed it

and starcraft2 pretty much implies real-time-strategy

Actually it's really hard to tell what he is asking as well.

@Wipqozn I'm hesitant to close based on localization for tech help here, as we really are a pretty good resource for that.

@FallenAngelEyes Are we really? The last time I looked, our successful help rate was beyond abysmal.

@FallenAngelEyes He doesn't seem to be asking for tech help exactly. I'm having trouble telling exactly what he asks. this

> What is the best performance i can get for this config

makes it sound like he wants us to rate his system

Posting system specs and then asking how well the game will run is too localized.

@GraceNote Is it really that bad? I don't know how to do the MySQL magic to look at numbers.

@FallenAngelEyes It's been a long time since I ran numbers, but no joke, the last time we did look at this a couple months back, it was 0% success rate. The only acceptances were people finding it out on their own.

Q: replace nes battery

How does one replace the nes cartridge battery?

On top of that, it's really hard to tell what he wants. Part of his question makes it sounds like he wants to know if he can run it, the other makes it sounds like he already has it and is curious how to improve performance.

@ThomasMcDonald Change the question to the title, then jsut copy paste the title.

user30

also, we have a battery tag? ﴾͡๏̯͡๏﴿

If there is nothing else to add, then adding anything but the question again is a waste of words.

The only other thing you could do is add the same question, but with a different wording to make it easier for google to pick it up

I get the feeling, that the Dark Hunter is significantly weaker than other classes for the front row (Landsknecht or Protector). I have a party of around level 25 and I'm in the Dungeon on B7 and my Dark Hunter dies more often than the others. Is this class not comparable to the other meatshields...

@sjohnston It's just... wow. I loved the game.

btw, any time you see me excited about 3D this or that, it's sarcasm.

I can't see 3D effects.

@Powerlord 3D movies give me a headache but I would suffer for this game.

Like I suffered for GoldenEye 64

@FallenAngelEyes No, I mean I really can't see them.

@Powerlord What kind can't you see? All different types?

That game made so so so so nauseated. I was curled up on my bed with stomach pain and almost puking but I was like "One... more... level..."

4:23 PM

Last I heard, 3D movies have been steadily decreasing in revenue generation, so it very well may be a passing fad. Just like every previous 3D craze.

@Nick Pretty much. Essentially, I don't have stereoscopic vision, even with two working eyes.

@Powerlord Aw, so you can't see Magic Eye thingies?

@Powerlord Does that cause difficulties with depth perception?

@FallenAngelEyes Nope, can't see them,

I'm going to hide bacon somewhere and give the directions to it in a Magic Eye image >:D

4:24 PM

@sjohnston Yes. Essentially, I have no depth perception.

@Powerlord Neurological thing?

However, I've learned to compensate for that over the last 30 years.

@Powerlord Suddenly, the thought of you driving terrifies me.

@Powerlord That sounds...inconvenient.

@FallenAngelEyes There's a reason I hate driving at night. It's not so bad during the day because I can generally tell how far a car is away from me by how large it appears.

In other words, I use perspective to compensate for having no depth perception.

I'll say this, the only automobile accident that was my fault was caused by me trying to change lanes and hitting an icy patch. Fun fact, your entire car starts to turn instead of just changing lanes on ice.

@Nick that's hilariously dickish

(and it was solely my car that was in this accident)

@Powerlord What I am taking away from this conversation is that you don't need depth perception to be a spy. sagenod

@FallenAngelEyes Video games are usually pretty good when it comes to perspective.

@Ronan Don't worry about it.

can't we just synonym it rather than re-tagging it all?

oh true

first I need to actually make the wow-cataclysm tag though

then I need to get a mod to throw in the synonym

then I need to get some people to vote for it

I'm just not so happy to use the merge feature after getting a failure a few minutes ago

Ah well, let's try it.

Failure?

5:09 PM

Well, I was originally going to suggest that you get @badp to assign the synonyms but the merge feature isn't working right now.

Do we really need a strategy and tactics tag? I'll need to look through them later and see if there is a reason, otherwise I'll meta it.

Actually it worked this time around

So I had to improvise. Spine-punching seemed like a good compromise.

@Mana any other tags to shuffle?

@badp Yes... hearts, diamonds, spades, and clubs.

Well, while @Wipqozn is on tag cleanup, I'll be on tag wiki excerpt cleanup.

The question I posted may talk about SC, but it's asking about apm which is an RTS concept.

@Powerlord I think you meant "knockoff." Clone implies that it's roughly as good as Steam

@Wipqozn I know they are.

I was almost said to see them buy Popcap Games.

Also, we already have a vote dump. Namely, me.

@ArdaXi Oh you won't be avoiding primaries.

5:53 PM

@KevinY There's a chance.

@ArdaXi I think he means you should expect me to throw a wrench in that.

@GnomeSliceツ That won't work. Then you would win. We have quite a few excellent candidates, so I think it's going to be hard for everyone to decide.

I've already decided... anyway, all signs still point to 3 choices on the ballot.

@KevinY - what's with all the tag excerpt pending edits?

(I'm out of votes for you today, btw)

(Ie. three people to choose, only two win)

5:55 PM

@RavenDreamer Here.

@RonanForman and the programmers won the lawsuit

@Wipqozn Yeah, that would be a lose-lose for everyone.

@GnomeSliceツ Especially everyone

@KevinY might i suggest using "A" to prefix a lot of those things? Instead of

the dwarf fortress tag being (as you are currently suggesting)

"Tile-based, real-time strategy,..."

I've been trying to avoid "a" because...

"Better be safe and not start with "a", "the", "this" and its ilk. @kev – random♦"

5:56 PM

Instead edit things to be "A tile-based, real time strategy"...

@KevinY I liked the Slaves to Armok intro.

@Powerlord Why do you need linux for the server? Can't you use windows?

I'm not sure I see why Random is suggesting that.

@RonanForman Linux is so very, very, very much more stable.

@RonanForman Because I already have a Linux server I run my TF2 servers from.

@ArdaXi windows is stable?

Your wording implies it is, which I find odd.

@Wipqozn Sure. But not stable enough for a proper server.

@GnomeSliceツ @_@ You mentioned a wrench, therefore you must want to play TF2.

@Wipqozn No it doesn't.

@ArdaXi I think it does, but I don't care enough to debate it.

So you win by default.

If I say something is more X than Y is, that doesn't mean Y is X.

Seeing as any other positive value is bigger than zero.
