2:01 PM
Either way, I'm not saying I think he should be banned (because I don't), just that his habit of doing these things network wide is the kind of thing I would expect someone to be banned for.
 
hm.
Here, have a chill song
 
@Mana Are one of those people your brother?
 
@Wipqozn Damn it, can't find the version I'm looking for. Also, no.
 
@Mana I'm already listening to it.
TOO LATE MANA, TOO LATE!
 
@Wipqozn Yeah, but you're listening to a sped up version!!!
IT'S NOT THE SAME!!!!!!
 
2:04 PM
OH NO! YOU'RE RIGHT!
I'M NOT FEELING CHILLED AT ALL NOW
 
Here, have another song from the album, not sped up.
 
Okay.
hm. I like these people.
I approve of your taste in your music @Mana.
 
@Wipqozn Yeah, they're awesome. This whole album is just a complete throwback to 80s beachpop stuff.
 
@NickT ಠ_ಠ
 
Also, allow me to return the favour with a recent ReMix which I rather enjoy:
 
2:09 PM
@Wipqozn Man, I haven't been on OCRemix in forever.
 
@Wipqozn necro'ing your question to me from yesterday - no, I haven't been playing Killing Floor since Sunday afternoon
apparently Steam thinks I have though
 
@IanPugsley Indeed it does.
I was like jeez, that boy sure does like Killing Floor.
 
hmm - apparently the process was still running
 
Okay, you fixed it.
ah I see
that would explain it
 
2:11 PM
so yeah, apparently KF has been running since Sunday afternoon
while I was playing LoL yesterday, while I was resizing and compressing a video last night...
 
Jeez, that boy sure does like Killing Floor.
Also, hello @Tristan.
 
c'mon computer! Work with me here
 
Hello @Wipqozn
 
@Mana No, but he should kinda know better. :/
 
@FallenAngelEyes Yes...yes, he should.
 
2:13 PM
@FallenAngelEyes Well, he does know better, he just doesn't care.
He does it because he thinks it is funny, and, well... okay, it is funny. Pretty gosh darn funny in fact.
 
Weeew! My first time ever hitting rep cap! =3
2
 
Although I'm sure the people on those sites don't agree.
@Tristan good job
How do you mash potatoes? That was comedy gold.
 
@Wipqozn freiheit's comment on "potentially offensive to bike lovers" was what got me, lol
 
@IanPugsley Yeah, that was great.
 
@Wipqozn Thank you.
 
2:15 PM
@Wipqozn Deliberately trolling other sites in the network is not so much funny as poor taste. :/
 
@FallenAngelEyes I agree.
What he is doing isn't funny, but the questions themselves are.
 
@Wipqozn That may be so, but for me, the humor's rather lessened by the fact that it creates unnecessary cleanup work for the other sites and their mods.
 
@FallenAngelEyes I agree, which is the problem.
Which is why I made the comment I'm surprised he hasn't been banned.
His questions may be funny, but they are a huge pain for the people who need to clean it up.
 
Somehow I didn't know you were talking about GnomeSlice until I went all the way back up to Mana's comment.
Has he been suspended or something?
 
@StrixVaria I don't think so.
Just look at the bicycles question that's starred.
 
2:28 PM
I saw that last night.
I don't know why he intentionally trolls a place where he spends so much of his time.
Not that he's an avid user on bicycles.se
But just the SE network in general.
 
@StrixVaria The phrase "don't **** where you eat" comes to mind.
 
You guys are post Evan, right?
 
@JuanManuel What?
 
@StrixVaria on Bikes.se he was
 
The master troll
Evan Carroll
 
2:33 PM
@JuanManuel oh, right. HE trolls MSO, right?
 
That was a complicated user
I think he's from the time when anybody could close a question with one vote
good times
 
@JuanManuel Man, that guy was hilarious though.
I honestly just die laughing reading his posts. But I can see how it would be a complete pain to deal with.
 
@Mana yeah, he put a lot of effort in it
 
@Mana You died?!?! Oh my zeus.
Wait, does that mean there now three mod positions open?
 
lol
 
2:35 PM
Anyways, g2g to class
Also, relationships with girls are FRIGGIN' CONFUSING AGH
just putting that out there.
 
@Mana female problems?
 
hahaha
 
@Mana You too, now?
 
@Wipqozn I don't even know.
 
Ow, my ears are dead, I just put headphones on with the volume at full.
 
2:37 PM
@RonanForman That's bad news bears.
 
that exit was hilarious
 
@Mana Oh, so she might be angry at you, but you don't know?
 
@Wipqozn chances increased by 50%!
@Tristan I'm pretty excited to try that sniper rifle lady. I can't remember her name.
 
@OrigamiRobot Caitlyn
 
@OrigamiRobot Caitlyn. I was just looking at her.
 
2:38 PM
she's pretty fun
and ridiculous
 
My brother mains her
Got her down a lot better than I did in that last match, that's for sure.
 
Is your brother on the site too or no?
 
@JuanManuel I concur.
Always good to go out on a high note.
 
waugh, the 2 highest rated guides on mobafire for Sejuani are both jungling guides
 
@FallenAngelEyes Nay
 
2:42 PM
Ah okay. He seems to game a lot too, from what you say, so was wondering.
 
Oh, he is a major gamer, definitely.
 
@GraceNote You should convince him to join.
 
He's not interested.
Partly because he, like I, don't really ask questions.
 
@GraceNote Also the new Carpe Fulgur game is out, Fortune Summoners. It's not from EGS though.
@GraceNote I'm gonna assume the awesomeness is genetic and he's a Wizard to your Witch.
 
Pretty much. We're gamer siblings raised by gamer parents.
 
2:45 PM
Haha, nice. What did your parents play?
 
Noooo! I can't speak! How am I going to record my nomination?
 
My Mom beat one of the arcade versions of Space Invaders that could actually be beaten (it still resets you to the start, of course, but you get a pretty pixel image celebrating your accomplishment)
 
Then they pretty much accompanied us for most of the 1st and 2nd gen game systems in playing with us.
Still play Wii with us occasionally.
 
Tell me @GraceNote. What is your favourite video game?
Random question, I know, just suddenly curious for some reason.
 
2:47 PM
That's a bit of a difficult thing to label, don't you think?
 
Indeed, it can be.
 
@GraceNote they had games in 8020some BCE?
 
That's awesome. My dad gamed a little with us when we were younger, but my mom was never really into it.
 
@IanPugsley I lol'd
 
@IanPugsley Aye, we played Mah Jong with stone tiles back then.
 
2:48 PM
@FallenAngelEyes My dad can still kick my butt at the original Virtua Fighter.
 
@GraceNote oh man I love Mah Jong
don't forget Go
 
@Wipqozn It's a bit problematic when you have a humongous library to sift through.
@IanPugsley I'm the only Go player in this family.
 
@GraceNote mhm
 
@Tristan My dad and I would play Super Contra together.
My mom did play a little bit of Little Nemo Dream Master
 
If you can narrow down the question to at least some form of category then I could possibly answer.
 
2:49 PM
@GraceNote I learned it years and years ago and promptly forgot it
 
@FallenAngelEyes Haha, I remember that game.
 
@GraceNote What's your favorite RPG?
 
@IanPugsley Mine was back in ancient times and I imagine my skills have rusted as well.
 
@GraceNote I really liked it as a kid, but I haven't really played it since then, though the music always throws me back to my childhood.
 
@GraceNote Favourite platformer?
 
2:50 PM
@Tristan Probably Wild ARMs 3. Though depending on how Trails in the Sky goes (once the next part gets localized!), it may shift.
@Wipqozn Kirby series. Naturally Return to Dreamland has the largest polish and the most recent and most entertaining experience, but I owe a lot to the series and every platforming game in its history has a place in my heart.
 
@GraceNote I've never played any of the Wild ARMs games... But I've heard good things.
 
@Tristan Me neither
 
Grab 3, if you can.
I'm also a fan of the Atelier series but I'm still kinda running through those. Working on Atelier Rorona at the moment.
 
I'll keep an eye out for it.
 
I got Wild ARMs 3 for $10 on a price tag that said $50. Rest in peace, CompUSA, you gave me the best deal for the best item without even knowing it.
But in general, despite its excellence, you can usually find the game for a pretty low price. And it's not nearly as hard to find as, say, any Ogre Battle entry.
 
2:56 PM
@GraceNote good choice.
 
I love a lot of other platformers as well, but Kirby has a special place in my heart that all of the combo-madness or crazy-ranked-skill-runs and speedrunner in me can't hope to compete against.
 
How many votes do I need on this answer before it outweighs the fact that the wrong answer was accepted?
10
A: Do corpses disappear after a while?

StrixVariaBodies do not persist forever. Eventually they will be removed. I was just beginning to think that the dragon skeleton at the College would be around forever, but when I visited it now it was gone. Similarly, when I killed Belethor, I was surprised to see that his body had been cleaned up rathe...

Assuming the asker doesn't change his checkmark.
 
For a badge? None - Reversal is for a negative question while Populist is for a good answer.
 
I'm not worried about the badge.
I mean that I've seen questions where the accepted answer is below a high-voted answer.
What makes that happen?
 
Self-accept only
 
2:59 PM
Oh :/
 
If you self-accept, it isn't anchored. Otherwise, it'll always be at the top.
 
Kind of sucks that the wrong answer is going to be above the right one in this case then. At least the wrong answer has -4 and is getting lower.
 
And with the other answers deleted, yours is shown just beneath it.

Q: Deus Ex HR: Is it possible to get the Turrets out of the Sewer?

Dan HowardThe mission where you have to defuse a bomb in the sewers there are 2 hackable turrets. Has anyone figured out a way to get these outside? It would be fun to drop this outside the police station and annoy the cops.

Q: How do I get Cupid Snoopy to shoot people?

Ashley NunnI downloaded the Valentine's Day update, and Snoopy now has a Cupid costume and can shoot people with love arrows. Problem is, I have no idea how to make that happen. How can I get him to shoot people?

 
This picture makes me sad:
I knew the similarities were there. But seeing them side by side like that is disheartening.
 
3:08 PM
@Tristan Ha, that's... kinda funny.
 
This is why they copy WoW.
 
Holy crap. The megaupload creator was sentenced to 50 years in prison!?
 
@Tristan no, that's the maximum sentence.
He hasn't been tried or sentenced yet.
 
@Ullallulloo Ooh, gotcha. My google-fu is weak. I need to learn to scroll down instead of just accepting the top result as fact. <.<
 
Ars Technica's been doing a pretty good job summarizing what's going on with Mr. Dotcom
 
3:12 PM
@Tristan You bring us much dishonor.
 
@Tristan Yeah, I saw that on reddit's front page a day or two ago, also.
 
@OrigamiRobot ...allofmyhate.
 
@Tristan That is not a standard unit of measure, so I don't know how to feel about that.
 
@OrigamiRobot 10 megatons of hate.
 
3:20 PM
hmm, this is weird
I guess this ronnie guy is spamming the election page?
for a second there I thought badp had gone off the rails!
 
@agent86 I would think successful mods would need a somewhat coherent grasp of the English language, which is something this Ronnie is lacking.
 
@Tristan yeah, he copied badp's comment on his nomination as a comment on my nomination.
 
How on earth does he have this much rep in the first place?
410?
 
I was like "wait, I've done all these things... and what part of this is garbage? I guess I was kind of silly with Raven, but I'm confused."
 
@Tristan He only needs enough english to find the delete button, and use it on posts that look roughly like his nomination.
 
3:25 PM
@BoltClock Skyrim answer
 
@BoltClock Because he seems helpful otherwise.
 
@FallenAngelEyes Ahh... Skyrim.
 
It's a test to see how the nominees handle it!
 
someone fixed up a poor answer of his on a popular question

DsXeRaIm trying to find out how am i able to find spider spawners to gain exp on SMP. Ive seen players that had found 4 spawners near each other and im looking to find out if theres and tricks or..... to help me find one.

Q: Clearing an Area Efficiently in MInecraft

CodeAdmiralI have an underground village all planned out on graph paper, and am ready to start building it. I have decided to have three block thick walls, with the middle being obsidian. Overall, I need a space 53 blocks long, 53 blocks wide, and 31 blocks high. What would be the most efficient way to d...

 
Unfortunately we can't delete election posts... yet
 
@JuanManuel I think that fellow makes a good case for why that feature should exist.
 
Oh man. I completely forgot my hometown made an appearance in an episode of Supernatural. =3
 
I can't even edit it, all I can do is delete the comments... but that wouldn't make much good IMO
 
buys Fortune Summoners
 
3:33 PM
We actually have no history of deleting nominations for any reason other than "Doesn't meet SO's new badge requirements"
 
@GraceNote I guess there isn't much harm anyway... unless people vote for him
 
The only otherwise case for a nomination being deleted is self-induced withdrawal.
If the nomination isn't serious, I don't expect it to pass by the primaries, nevermind the actual election.
 
@GraceNote The only downside is that it looks kind of bad when it shows up at the very top.
 
@OrigamiRobot Later phases will be randomly ordered
 
@FallenAngelEyes Let me know how it is!
 
3:35 PM
@FallenAngelEyes I might do it when they hit Gamers Gate
 
@GraceNote I assumed this was the case
 
Aww, I thought Kingdoms of Amalur came out today. =( It's next week.
 
@Tristan So did I, I confused it for Soul Calibur V
 
Final Fantasy XIII-2 came out today, though... I just wish my Xbox could connect to this hotel TV. =(
 
Aeo
@GraceNote So... Soul Calibur V came out today?
 
Whoa Soul Calibur V is out???
 
Speaking of which, everyone should ask @IanPugsley what version of Soul Calibur V he is getting.
 
@StrixVaria According to my calendar, it's supposed to be today.
 
amazon's having an "encore pc download sale" for those of you who live in the US (I'm guessing?) and don't mind dealing with whatever amazon's form of DRM is.
 
I wanted to be interested in SoulCalibur V, but their ad campaign kind of turned me off.
 
3:38 PM
@OrigamiRobot I already mentioned this yesterday, the collector's edition
 
@FallenAngelEyes I haven't seen any ads, so feel free to go on.
Although I have a guess they over sexualized it.
 
@FallenAngelEyes ah, another carpe fulgar game. I still have yet to break the seal on chantelise
 
@IanPugsley If @spugsley allows it.
 
Did you get stuck on fishing?
 
@agent86 I've bought a bunch of things that were Steamworks from Amazon (and one that was Origin...)
@OrigamiRobot I do what I want!
(with permission from my wife)
 
3:39 PM
I wonder if SCV lags like SCIV did online.
If so, I'm not interested.
But if they fixed it, oh man am I interested.
 
@Wipqozn It was an image closeup of Ivy's breasts with the text "Go big, or go home" on it.
 
@StrixVaria I actually had an alright time with it - if you get someone with low ping, it's fine
 
@IanPugsley how does that work exactly? do you redeem steamworks games on steam?
 
I didn't have too much issue with lag online either for SCIV
 
@FallenAngelEyes Ah I see. yeah, I can see how that would turn you off.
 
3:40 PM
@agent86 The DRM is Steam, so you have to use Steam for it.
 
@FallenAngelEyes seriously? I was hoping they'd get away from it in this one (they reversed the trend of oversexualizing a tiny bit)
 
@FallenAngelEyes yeah, I think I read some amazon FAQ where they talked about something proprietary.
 
@agent86 you get a key and try to activate it on Steam
 
@Wipqozn And it's also entirely misleading, seeing as they were trying to tone down the sexuality in the games, so it's like wtf
 
@IanPugsley Even a tiny input delay in a fighting game (especially one with counter-attacks being so prevalent like SC) kills the whole experience.
 
3:41 PM
@IanPugsley Do you have Steam?
 
@IanPugsley ah, gotcha. Do they even give you a download? or just the key?
 
@FallenAngelEyes si - "thepugs" (though I'll probably change it soon)
 
So I'm looking at a game guide I wrote partway through when I was 13, and cringing at all these semicolons with a space before them.
 
@FallenAngelEyes yeah, @Tristan just showed me the ad. That tells you nothing of the game :/
 
@agent86 both, actually, though I've never used their service to download anything
 
3:42 PM
Anno 2070 is one of the amazon games on sale, if anyone's curious.
 
@agent86 Where do you find those?
 
@IanPugsley Added you! I'll link ya if you're on.
 
@agent86 the game nobody's playing because you can only activate it like three times, and any hardware change requires a new activation?
 
@IanPugsley yeah, with something like Civ where steam is required, it'd seem weird to get an amazon download for it...
@IanPugsley yeah, ubisoft DRM sucks, but I still want to play it :(
 
@IanPugsley Isn't that Spore?
 
3:43 PM
@Tristan find what?
 
@IanPugsley I bought it before I knew this. :(
@BoltClock Nope, Ubi has it too.
 
@agent86 The amazon games sale.
 
@agent86 Check the Slickdeals thread for which games are Steamworks this time around
@FallenAngelEyes buh nuh nuh....
 
@Wipqozn It was just one big facepalm. And tasteless. I was just like "Uuuuugh."
 
@Tristan I've got several sources, one is cheapassgamer, which I have a RSS feed to. there's also a few "steam deals" feeds around as well.
 
3:45 PM
@FallenAngelEyes the most frustrating thing, given that they're trying to make this one more serious
 
Oooh, I could get Alice Madness Returns for $7.50...
 
@IanPugsley I know, talk about mixed messages. >_<
 
@FallenAngelEyes It made me think of Evony, actually, and their down right unethical ad campaign.
 
@FallenAngelEyes Wargh, the announcement was the lying!
 
@FallenAngelEyes well it's marketing vs. actual game development
 
3:46 PM
@Wipqozn Yeah, that was... dumb.
 
Odd, apparently we're behind server fault on traffic...
 
marketing doesn't give a shit how the game changed, it's SC - they can take boobs and put it on a box, and some teenagers will buy it
 
@GraceNote Announcement?
 
@FallenAngelEyes Some announcement on the Fulgur site from some day that I didn't bother to read said "It's out on Steam, and will soon be on GamersGate".
 
@IanPugsley Yeah. :/ (also Ivy's totally not aged... at all)
 
3:47 PM
and then anyone who actually likes the series will get mad, but not so mad that they won't buy it
 
@GraceNote WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!
 
@IanPugsley I did. :(
 
@FallenAngelEyes she never has - she's supposed to be like 40s or 50s by now
 
So, if I buy a game through Amazon's sale as a digital download, it gives me a code that I can try putting into Steam?
 
I have II, III, and IV and have put many hours into all of them :/
 
3:48 PM
@OrigamiRobot That's pretty much what I said.
 
then again, she has an undead pirate who is less undead now for a dad
 
(never owned a Dreamcast)
 
@FallenAngelEyes write an angry letter! Maybe someone will actually pay attention
 
@IanPugsley Wait, Cervantes isn't undead anymore?
 
Cervantes is un-undead?
 
3:49 PM
@FallenAngelEyes not positive but I think that's the case
I'll let you all know :)
 
@IanPugsley Yeah, I know, I still think it's funny though. She's my main character.
 
The last Soul Calibur I played was... 2.
 
(I've never ever managed to pull off Calamity Symphony)
 
@GraceNote You're WAAAGH!! inspired me to follow suit.
 
I at least played a mean Cervantes then, though.
 
3:50 PM
But I love her weapon, so
 
@FallenAngelEyes I can't do that one reliably but I can do it in training
 
@OrigamiRobot Sounds good to me.
 
I've played II and IV.
 
my main is Astaroth - they better have made him okay again
 
@GraceNote You gotta lotta dakka.
 
3:51 PM
I often prefer quick and zippy damage over the heavy-hitters, m'self
 
Kilik and Mitsurugi were always my favourite characters, although I've dabbled in a few other characters as well.
 
@Wipqozn Kilik!
 
@IanPugsley Haha, awesome
 
@FallenAngelEyes Yea! Who is that nunchaku guy? I beat @IanPugsley with him once.....once....
 
@IanPugsley I find actual games to be too hectic to manage to pull it off
 
3:52 PM
@OrigamiRobot Maxi
I really need to start using that little "Reply to this post" arrow...
 
@OrigamiRobot What Tristan said
 
@Fallen It's on sale for the full week, I'll grab the demo later in the week and try it out then see if I'll buy the full.
 
@GraceNote Woo~
 
As tempting as it is to just buy it, I do have other priorities for must-buys at the moment so I'd like to hold back on spending all too much money so rapidly.
 
@IanPugsley Was the CE worth it? It tempted me for a while
@GraceNote Yeah, understandable
 
3:56 PM
Zasalamel, at least his style, is my favourite. ^_^
 
@FallenAngelEyes haven't picked it up yet, going during lunch probably
 
@Tristan I played a pretty mean Kilik I have to say.
 
I own all the other games but I couldn't afford a CE before
 
@IanPugsley Cool. I'll live vicariously through your purchase.
and maybe pick it up a year from now or something when it's cheap or on sale
 
@Zamual05 I love Zasalamel just because of ATs (air ATs especially)
 
3:58 PM
The best was on SCIV, at least on xbox live, the community was so immature a lot of people would rage quit if you chose Kilik and then send you private messages calling you various names. IT was pretty funny.
 
@FallenAngelEyes I'll let you know if they did an okay job de-boobifying
 
Take note I mean at the start of match they would quit, before any fighting began.
 
@IanPugsley Ha, thanks. I've heard Ivy's secondary costume (the one they used for the ad) is pretty minimal.
 
goodbye amsterdam, farewell amstelveen, I'll be seeing you someday schipol
 
@FallenAngelEyes hm, that one is usually her primary and her secondaries are all Victorian
 
3:59 PM
@badp Have a safe flight!
