The Bridge

That might not be the intent, but it's kinda what it looks like from the outside. (Not just a matter of stars; just the general everybody-hates-me attitude.)

Wipqozn

Because in reality we all think you're pretty darn awesome.

GnomeSlice

@badp ...How is that attention/star whoring?

badp

10:51 PM

Did I say 'star whoring'?

Mana

He implies that you're prostituting for attention by beating yourself up.

FallenAngelEyes

@Raven in a game with @Grace atm (yay deathtimer)

Mana

And by implies, I mean outright says

It's not a very nice thing to say! But to be honest I wonder about it sometimes myself. Then again there are probably times where you beat yourself up for beating yourself up.

At least, if you're anything like me. Which you're probably not.

GnomeSlice

@Mana IT KEEPS HAPPENING.

@badp That's attention whoring?

I used it again as a reply to something else.

in SE Podcast Live Chat, 2 hours ago, by Kyle Cronin

@GnomeSlice why do you keep quoting yourself?

GnomeSlice

So what.

I was using them as replies, woooowwww.

Mana

@GnomeSlice Hey, now you sound like yourself outside of the internet.

badp

in SE Podcast Live Chat, 1 hour ago, by Kyle Cronin

@GnomeSlice no offense, but most of your stuff was a bit distracting, with you triple-quoting yourself all the time

Mana

First time that's really happened. Carry on.

GnomeSlice

10:56 PM

@Mana ?

Mana

Oh, no, it's just the first time where I was able to read that in your voice.

GnomeSlice

Oh. Hah.

badp

now it's 1am

nite

Wipqozn

@Mana So there is a whole other side to @GnomeSlice we never see?

Mana

@Wipqozn He's very romantic in real life.

Wipqozn

10:59 PM

@Mana A modern day Shakespeare?

Mana

Verily.

Wipqozn

That's crazy.

Although, not surprising he's different outside of the internet. A person tends to act different based on the group of people they are talking to.

GnomeSlice

@Wipqozn That's me.

Anyway, gotta peel potatoes.

Wipqozn

I'm assuming @GnomeSlice is a person, so that probably applies to him as well.

Mana

@Wipqozn Indeed. For example, whereas on this internet chat I am the pinnacle of suaveness and dudity, outside of the internet I'm just a pretty quiet and shy person.

Does this surprise anybody? Probably not.

Wipqozn

11:03 PM

@Mana That doesn't surprise me at all to be honest.

Another example is I talk about how darn handsome I am on this chat, and in reality I'm actually about 100 times more handsome than I let on.

Q: Does Spell Vamp affect magic damage procs from items?

I've been pondering how best to build Ezreal in the new Dominion mode, and it's gotten me wondering: Are Magic Damage procs, like from Wit's End and Madred's / Kitae's Bloodrazor affected by the aggressing champion's spellvamp? I know they don't get counted as part of the base damage of the att...

Mana

@Wipqozn Ah, yes, that's another good example.

Wipqozn

The way I act in this chat is fairly close to one side of my personality.

Mana

then...WHO AM I??

Is the shy, kind of bashful, somewhat optimistic somewhat depressed me outside of the internet the real Mana? Or is this internet persona myself?!?!?!?

WHICH ONE COULD IT POSSIBLY BE?

flips coin

Wipqozn

@Mana In reality it's a combination of the two. I'm assuming the way you act on here is due in part that the internet removes the shyness.

Mana

11:09 PM

Oh okay

Wipqozn

This is an unusually serious conversation for the bridge.

Excellent! MY little guy moved!

He got stuck on a wall... but he moved!

Mana

(I wasn't really being serious)

(I'm not even depressed IRL)

and to be honest I think I got over a lot of the social insecurity that resulted in my shyness anyways.

So nowadays I am just a guy.

Grace Note

@Wipqozn Did you get his wife out of the wall?

Wipqozn

@Mana So you're growing as a person? That's pretty awesome.

@GraceNote Why would I do that? Screw his wife.

Mana

@Wipqozn woah, why would Grace screw his wife? I'm so confused.

Wipqozn

11:22 PM

@Mana Maybe @GraceNote has frequent affairs with the wives of other men?

Mana

Like, business affairs? I can see that.

Wipqozn

@Mana Well, people normally say they are going on a business trip when they engage in affairs so...

Grace Note

Or I'm just an endless barrel of Gaming injokes

Wipqozn

@GraceNote I hold strong to the theory you don't actually exist.

Mana

@GraceNote Is this you?

Raven Dreamer

11:24 PM

@GraceNote The blue name tag requires a requisite amount of 'snark' before we're allowed in chat.

Q: PC futuristic adventure game with bald marine

It was an adventure game for PC that came in a cereal box. It should have been released around 1996-2000. Graphically it consisted of pre-rendered 3D backgrounds. You controlled a bald marine and the game started in a space station. In the first puzzle the character was locked inside a room and ...

identify-this-game

Mana

Everyone had one of those.

Wipqozn

@FallenAngelEyes I would hope so! All the cool kids had one. I personally didn't though, but that was because I was too cool.

Mana

@Lazers cringe All the futuristic adventure games have bald marines...

Raven Dreamer

11:25 PM

Crap. Just found a hole in my pants.

Guess its time to throw these away.

FallenAngelEyes

@RavenDreamer Or use them for nefarious purposes

Mana

No way man. Flaunt the holes.

Wipqozn

@FallenAngelEyes ah damn, you beat me to it! Was going to make a comment about it being a glory hole.

Raven Dreamer

@FallenAngelEyes intruiged Go on...

Mana

Someone trying to make conversation with you? Just go like "YO CHECK OUT THIS HOLE IN MY PANTS"

instant better conversation.

Wipqozn

11:27 PM

"whoa, what's that huge thing coming out of it!"
"oh this? this is just a banana" *pulls out banana*

FallenAngelEyes

@Mana Or instant lawsuit, one of the two

Wipqozn

@FallenAngelEyes All the better!

FallenAngelEyes

@RavenDreamer Depends on where the hole is!

Wipqozn

FallenAngelEyes

@Wipqozn ...D:

Wipqozn

11:31 PM

@FallenAngelEyes Just saying, a lawsuit could give you a great pick-up line!

Mana

@Wipqozn I am reminded of a thing.

Sep 21 at 20:36, by Grace Note

Would you like a banana?

I don't think I need to fish out the relevant line after that one.

GnomeSlice

@Mana I am! :D

@Wipqozn THAT'S IT.

@GnomeSlice No, really? Wow.

Wipqozn

Sep 21 at 20:37, by Grace Note

Peel it down and go mm mm mm mm~

GnomeSlice

@Mana ಥ_ಥ

Mana

There you go.

(I still don't understand what the hell Grace was going on about there, but Juan's reaction was perfect)

Wipqozn

@Mana My word, you're so young and innocent.

Mana

@Wipqozn No, I meant, in context da agh blaaaaaah

@Mana Peel down the banana skin and go "mm mm mm mm" to represent how delicious it was?

GnomeSlice

11:35 PM

> I'M THROWING MONEY AT MY SCREEN BUT NOTHING IS HAPPENING WHAT DO

Grace Note

@Mana It's something that some friends of mine randomly sing. It just came to mind at the time

Mana

@GraceNote a-ha

GnomeSlice

Nobody watches my things.

Raven Dreamer

Nobody things.

Mana

@GnomeSlice Well, I can't at the moment. I'm in class.

Grace Note

11:37 PM

@Powerlord ...what

GnomeSlice

@Powerlord Can't understand anything he's saying.

Wipqozn

You know, I'm making a point to vote to close all itg questions I consider too vague, however this has resulted in me just voting to close nearly all of them.

Powerlord

@GnomeSlice Good thing it's subtitled at the bottom then, right?

GnomeSlice

@Wipqozn Do not.

Mana

@Wipqozn "nearly all" so close

Powerlord

11:39 PM

I'm still wondering where some of those phrases the Heavy says in that video come from. For instance, when does the Heavy ever say "salt"

Raven Dreamer

@Powerlord This is why audio splicing sucks.

@Powerlord "Assault"

Powerlord

When does the Engineer ever say Sandvich?

GnomeSlice

BITCH.

Mana

It's on my favorites list too

GnomeSlice

@Mana Yeah, but that's only so you can step on them faster.

Mana

11:41 PM

(for a completely different reason)

@GnomeSlice wooooooooah

GnomeSlice

@Mana I said 'step on'.

Mana

I treat ITGs like a proper gentleman would, thank you.

Raven Dreamer

@FallenAngelEyes I missed whatever those last 2 messages were because my game launched.

FallenAngelEyes

I said "Right" and "Ooooh LeBlanc looks neat too"

Why wouldn't you just scan the page and upload it to the internet? Or write down the code?

@Mana wiki.teamfortress.com/wiki/Killer_Exclusive

user30

Unique code

FallenAngelEyes

@GraceNote I was telling Raven how going off just lore, I'm interested in Morgana (fallen angel, how can I pass that up), LeBlanc, Soraka, Vayne, and Evelynn.

Mana

Really? REALLY?

IT'S A HAT.

FallenAngelEyes

I like dark, kickass ladies, what can I say

Grace Note

11:47 PM

Heh

user30

Hats are serious business

Mana

Me too Fallen.

Grace Note

Morgana is one I haven't tried, but honestly after you mentioned lady necromancers she was the first person I considered suggesting.

FallenAngelEyes

I am a lore nerd :(

Vayne also gets props for having an outfit that actually covers stuff

Grace Note

@FallenAngelEyes You should read Rammus' lore

How the heck have we managed to make computers with so much RAM...?

Grace Note

@FallenAngelEyes Yeah, considering the other 4 of your choice... skirt, "dress", poncho, and... yeah... Evelynn.

FallenAngelEyes

@GraceNote "Armordillo" bwahahaha

I'm just learning about what actually makes up the RAM circuit right now and it's pretty amazing we manage to cram so many of those in such little space
