@Zamual05 No, but most of it is on YouTube.

@Zamual05 no, but it is on youtube

Tristan

@murgatroid99 Did you see the Elder Scrolls one I posted earlier?

murgatroid99

@Tristan Yes, and it was good

Tristan

Zamual05

If it were on Netflix I would give a watch.

murgatroid99

6:16 AM

There is a whole list of them on TvTropes under youtube memes

@Zamual05 Why if it is on netflix but not if it is on youtube?

Zamual05

@murgatroid99 Cause then I could watch on my TV and not feel like I was somehow watching it illegally.

murgatroid99

@Zamual05 I see.

Zamual05

Also I hate trying to make sure I am watching things in the right order.

murgatroid99

@Zamual05 With this show I always just deal with that by searching by season and episode number

That makes me lol.

@Tristan You aren't playing LoL...oh wait. :P

murgatroid99

@Tristan I love just about all of both of those episodes

Tristan

@Zamual05 I am not. Because my connection went to crap. lol Origami quit, too?

Zamual05

@Tristan No he didn't.

That was also a fail joke on my part.

Tristan

@Zamual05 Oh, he must really be enjoying it then. lol

Well, bed time. See you all tomorrow.

@Tristan Night! ^_^

murgatroid99

@Zamual05 One thing about this show is that the episodes are not legally available to stream anywhere, and you can only buy them from iTunes.

So, if you want to stream it, you have to use youtube

Zamual05

:(

murgatroid99

@Zamual05 It always makes me feel a little better that it is basically an advertisement for merchandise (besides being a good show on its own).

I am looking for a old side scrolling RTS. As the title suggest's, this is a game I haven't played since I was a kid.

Unless they're monsters, then it's not for them.

OrigamiRobot

@Mana - I almost forgot. After you left the debacle in scifi the other day, Slytherincess came in and attempted to resolve the situation in a very diplomatic and friendly manner. I'm not sure that it matters now, but she should get credit if she ever tries to run for moderator or something.

Wipqozn

@badp So, what's the surprise again?

Are we finally going to declare me supreme overlord of Gaming Stack Exchange?

please let that be it crosses fingers

hm, so roughly 5pm for me eh...

OrigamiRobot

@Wipqozn I, for one, accept and welcome our new trolling overlord.

Mana

2:57 PM

@OrigamiRobot I don't really have anything to do with that

It's the community's decision who becomes moderator on SciFi. That's the whole deal.

I can't give people extra credit or anything. That's just not how it works.

Feel free to bring it up if she does run by all means though. She sounds like she would make a good mod.

ugh, my body feels so heavy today. I can't drum or anything.

OrigamiRobot

@Mana I wasn't implying that. I just figured I'd let you know since you were familiar with the situation.

Mana

@OrigamiRobot Oh. Sorry.

My mind's not all there right now.

OrigamiRobot

No worries. I probably wont be involved in any elections there, but it would be a shame for her efforts to go unnoticed.

I was also surprised this morning that we were talking about a surprise. However, I don't think it will be too terribly surprising. I think I can surprise myself with the surprise now and not be as surprised later. Surprise.

@AshleyNunn if I preorder from Best Buy there's a character from the Wii Soul Calibur that hasn't seen main series play before

I am always a little sad because most of the more interesting pre-order bonuses for games never make it to Canada

I am super disappointed that in Canada you apparently can't get the code for the copy of the original Kid Icarus that comes with Gamestop preorders for Kid Icarus: Uprising in the States. Even Europe had a promo (albeit a different one) where you could get it. But it seems like Canada is getting the short end of the stick.

@Tristan in what aspect? Gameplay or plot/setting?
