Or let all population starve: produce no food any more and only money - at last buying the last settler.
There's been some grumbling about this post, suggesting it's not an answer to the question
@badp Due to its constant misuse by StackExchange, I removed my email address from my profiles network wide, as well as my name and other personal information (like employer).
Sadly, this means I also blew away my Gaming-specific profile, which documented which game systems I have.
Ugh, I was asked to cover phones because all the people who normally do phones are gone. :/
This is the problem with being the low man on the totem pole for my group. You get to do gruntwork sometimes. Although this is the first time in 3 years that I've been asked to cover phones.

In 8 minutes I can transfer phones to voicemail, then go back to my desktop again.
Also, my IM window (Novell Groupwise Messenger, for work) didn't show up until I hit ctrl+space M to move it because it was confused as to which monitor it should appear on.
The computer I'm sitting at only has one monitor, while my desktop has 2.
after trying to make something sane out of the incredibly retarded networking API that C uses, and failing for no discernible reason, I looked at Python and feel instantly in love.
I play on a minecraft server. The admin likes a plugin that uses /sp. I aksed him to install world edit, so he did. He then uninstalled it when he realised that it overwrote /sp. So I'm looking for a good alternative to world-edit.
In response to your deleted message, sometimes a tag seems like a good idea, but later on it turns our it isn't useful. On the same note, you only need 300 reputation to make a tag anyways, which isn't much at all.
Plus the community opinion changes as well.
Genre tags are a prime example. Before it was acceptable to tag a game with its genre tag. For example, tagging Starcraft II questions as real-time-strategy . The opinion now is this is not a proper use of the tag.
real-time-strategy doesn't add anything to the question unless it's about the genre itself, or a general concept amongst all of them.
It's also impossible to maintain reasonable due to both the issue of cross platforms, hybrid genres, and even the malleability of "genre" in its own right.
Overgrowth is currently in alpha stage, but people who pre-order are allowed to play the test versions. I liked Lugaru (its spiritual predecessor), and I've been watching their weekly videos and trying to decide whether to buy Overgrowth or not. Over the weeks, I'm slowly moving towards the Yes, ...
Mainly because once we figure what games are actually old...do we have to tag everything on the site as old-games once enough time passes? It just doesn't really add any value and it's a nuisance.
ITG are a controversial topic. I would say the majority of the community agrees they are a problem, but not only are those people divided on how they should be dealt with, but there are still a sizable amount of members who have no problem with them.
@Powerlord Well, he just announced one time that he would do that and nothing happened, so I think we have to decide that one on our own. (And BTW the @ likely does not work for Jeff, as he hasn't been in this chat room for a while).
@Arda @Wip you guys might indeed be right, and you might not be right. I have a feeling your "sample" is mostly a few of the users who participate in meta and in chat. Not all users do that... though of course, many of those that don't participate in meta/chat don't really care :) I'm just saying, using words like "majority" is not really fair when you don't really know. Use "many" or "some".
@NickT Part of what's great about this site is that we're filled with expert gamers. We can show other people that we're serious about solving their gaming problems. But with ITG, all the answers end up being very little more than guesses, a sentence or two plus maybe a picture. This doesn't really promote quality.
Another thing is that with ITG you get a bunch of problems solved, but they're all very localized, so they're not the type of things other people would find useful and they don't really help to solve a problem. They don't add much to the site.
Also, upvoting answers is problematic because...well, you can't know what's correct, right? So you just have to trust your gut.
As time has worn on since last-year-ish, and various ITG questions worn on GSE denizens, has the community position on them changed? Half the time they seem ridiculously vague, and how answers are voted on seems totally random, which seems to distort the point of reps (though much less so than s...
@Manaಠдಠ I disagree with too localized, and disagree with problematic upvoting. Too localized means only relevant for a small geographic location or a short span of time - ITG questions are relevant forever, everywhere. I also assert they can be useful for people other than the OP.
Regarding upvoting - I upvote when I know the suggested game and can verify it fulfills the requirements of the question, just like in every other question.
Or, when I don't know the suggested game but I check it out, to verify it fits.
I upvote when it's an answer that I know fulfills all the requirements of the question.
I downvote (and often leave a comment) when I know the answer is, without any doubt, incorrect.
In both cases this depends on my knowledge of the game suggested in the answer - and if I know nothing about it...
You can't just say "w/o sword" as 3 of the 4 swords don't alter the HP (as I recall)
And yes, the Demoman has 4 swords: Eyelander, Claymore (with its Scottish spelling that I never get right), Half-Zatoichi (Katana), and Persian Persuader.
I recently read a review of Deus Ex that said you could play a stealth character throughout most of the game, avoiding combat. However, they also said the boss battles were all strict run-and-gun fights.
I would like to play a stealthy character, but I'm wondering if the difficulty of the boss f...

I'm looking for a game like "Electronic Talking Battleship" for PC so that I can play vs my wife with our laptops back to back.
