4:00 AM
@Fluttershy Here's some more
 
@Wipqozn Oh god I loved those things
Like Waldo but awesome
 
@BenBrocka Are you implying that Waldo is not awesome?
 
@YiJiang I think he was. We should beat him up.
 
user15026
@Wipqozn I had an unnatural love for these books.
 
4:03 AM
@AshleyNunn It was a good object to have an unnatural love for.
Okay. I need to go to bed. Good night all.
 
I've been hyperventilating for like four hours, what the hell.
 
@Wipqozn Who are we beating up? Nevermind, I'm in!

Okay, windows media player is now playing songs it shouldn't know how to find
Freaky.
 
user15026
@Ktash I know it is all based on averages and crap but it is creeping me the fuck out
 
4:11 AM
@RavenDreamer vinylsoft.com
 
@Ktash It's not actually very accurate. The resolution is only down to the country level. For instance, most births and deaths in China should be concentrated in the coastal areas.
Also, that reminds me, I wish the statistics bureau in my country would have an open API for accessing their numbers
 
@YiJiang yeah... and I don't trust the numbers very much... but it is still morbid and terrifying
 
user15026
@YiJiang yeah, they don't seem to have location mapping, but at the same time...it scares the crap out of me
 
@BenBrocka Do you need a credit card for the Android store?
 
user15026
@GnomeSlice AFAIK, yes
 
4:15 AM
Fuck
That's disappointing. =[
 
user15026
I could be wrong, because I never really investigated other optyions
 
I wish they had a thing like iTunes credit.
 
user15026
@GnomeSlice For all I know, they might, but I can't recall seeing anything
 
@YiJiang AAhhhhh yesss
 
4:17 AM
There's a "Gift Card" link in the footer
 
@YiJiang Broken Search. =[
 
user15026
@YiJiang I wonder if they are US only
 
@AshleyNunn I'm guessing. Walmart and Target are the two online retailers.
But I can't get Sunvox yet, I'm not allowed to have anything not school on my new tablet yet.
 
@AshleyNunn Possibly. I'm using a VPN connecting to the US.
 
user15026
@GnomeSlice The online gift cards are only valid in the US (I checked the fine print)
 
4:19 AM
=[
 
user15026
Not surprised, but yeah.
 
Guys, guys.

@AshleyNunn I have a debit card... President's Choice though.
Bah
Can you get them at like Best Buy or something, I wonder?
 
user15026
4:23 AM
@GnomeSlice Looks like for Canada the Play store only supports Credit cards (I just futzed with it myself on my phone)
 
Fuck!
I don't have one.
I don't want one.
 
Get a debit card
 
@OrigamiRobot I have one. President's Choice. Canadian.
 
Or a check card.
Check cards are somehow different than debit cards? Mine pretends to be credit all the time.
 
A what.
I just want a five dollar app, this shouldn't be this hard.

user15026
4:25 AM
@GnomeSlice I may have found a solution!
 
user15026
Ping me on Steam, if you can, so I can explain it and not clutter chat
 
@GnomeSlice a credit card is a good idea because even if you never use it, your credit rating can improve.
 
@AshleyNunn Can you skype instead?
 
user15026
@GnomeSlice Yep!
 
user15026
Dear Steam, stop tempting me.
 
4:34 AM
Steam got me a lot this week
 
user15026
@Ktash I am trying to stay strong, and just tell myself to play the stuff I was gifted
 
user15026
But so many shiny things!
 
The solution of course is to coax people into gifting you the stuff that you're being tempted by.
 
I got the PoP series (again) and the Bioshock series... and I don't even know why
I don't even play my other steam games
 
user15026
@TimStone I did get a pile of things off my wishlist. I am just like AUGH so many of my wishlist things are on sale.... XD
 
4:37 AM
Anybody american want to gift me a $5 Android App? I can pay you back with paypal...
 
user15026
@GnomeSlice Can Canadians not gift?
 
@AshleyNunn Oh, I guess Canadians with credit cards can do it.
Derp
 
user15026
@GnomeSlice Link me to what you want, and I can see what I can do?
 
user15026
@GnomeSlice Okay, how the shit do I gift on here....
 
4:40 AM
hahaha, I have no idea. Can you even?
 
user15026
@GnomeSlice I will find out!
 
@AshleyNunn Uh oh.
You can't.
 
user15026
@GnomeSlice Boo, that is stupidpants, you can on iOS devices! Dear Android, this is the first time I have been sad at you
 
@AshleyNunn Did you pay for it already, because you can't.
 
user15026
@GnomeSlice Nope, I am just poking at things
 
4:42 AM
15 mins ago, by MBraedley
@GnomeSlice a credit card is a good idea because even if you never use it, your credit rating can improve.
 
@AshleyNunn I could give you money for a giftcard, I guess... but I don't need $10
 
user15026
@GnomeSlice yeah, and I am pretty sure those are US only
 
@MBraedley My parents won't want to get me one.
@AshleyNunn sdfilubrkubvywufnweud argh
Stupid Google!
 
user15026
Excuse me for a moment while I flip out - there is a spider on the window.
 
user15026
And normally I would be like AUGH FLEEE GET THE ROOMMATE but I am going to be a brave me and kill it myself.
 
4:43 AM
@GnomeSlice are you 18 yet?
 
I'm insecto/arachnophobic.
@MBraedley I'm 20.
 
user15026
@GnomeSlice I dont like em, but in 13 days there will be no more roommate to ask, so here we go.
 
@GnomeSlice then it doesn't really matter what they think, as long as you're paying the bills on it
 
@MBraedley I don't have any income.
I'm not an adult, they still give me allowance for Chrissake.
 
user15026
IT IS DEAD
 
4:45 AM
I don't drive, so I can't work anywhere.
 
user15026
and I am stupidly proud of me
 
@AshleyNunn I'm probably hilarious to watch trying to get rid of bugs.
 
user15026
@GnomeSlice You don't live anywhere with a decent transit network?
 
user15026
@GnomeSlice I flailed about with a wooden spoon, but I finally smacked the damn thing.
 
user15026
I FEEL LIKE A BRAVE WARRIOR

4:46 AM
@GnomeSlice there are a lot of cards that don't have an annual rate, so if you only use it when you need it, it effectively costs you nothing
 
You don't have Mirror's Edge, @AshleyNunn?
 
@AshleyNunn The nearest bus station is a good 20 minute drive. Then I can bus anywhere, but I have to GET there first.
 
user15026
@TimStone I do not.
 
@MBraedley My mother thinks I spend all my money on games online.
 
user15026
@GnomeSlice Ah, yeah, that is way impractical
 
user15026
4:46 AM
For some reason I thought you were a city dweller
 
@TimStone Did you bug whatsisname about the soundcloud thing.
 
I did not, I think he's away on vacation at the moment.
 
@GnomeSlice Well, umm, I get the impression that you kinda do.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz I buy a lot of games online, but most of them are $1-2
But yeah.
I'm like a child.
This is one of those things I'd clear stars on if I could clear them on my own messages.
That should be a feature.
 
@GnomeSlice Just delete the message (or don't say it in the first place)
 
4:49 AM
@OrigamiRobot No.
 
Then stop complaining.
 
@GnomeSlice I don't see how that's a valid rebuttal to my argument. If you only use a credit card when you know you can pay it off, then it doesn't significantly change your spending habits.
 
@MBraedley My parents have to drive me to the bank, for starters. My mother will just drain my account if she thinks I'm spending shit on games.
 
user15026
@TimStone You did not have to do the thing you just did, although I am most appreciative of it. :D
 
4:50 AM
Godammit, is there no way to gift Android apps at all.
 
user15026
Which is to say, THANK YOU! gives thank you cupcakes
 
Yay, cupcakes! :D
 
user15026
@GnomeSlice It looks like something they will implement eventually, but arent that concerned about
 
@TimStone Wait, does that mean you wrote the stuff already
 
@GnomeSlice Not exactly, but that should only take an hour or so.
I'll write a sticky note for myself so I don't get distracted this time.
 
4:52 AM
Heh.
It doesn't have to look exactly like the 'screenshot'.
Also, you are great.
Anybody american want to give me a Google Play giftcard? I can pay you back with paypal...
 
user15026
@GnomeSlice Even if they give you one, can you use it with a CDN account?
 
iksu,rhvjekrsvbhwrjfv,ijefnw,jfw,jenedc FORGET IT
Stupid Google.
 
Anyways, I'm off to bed. Later all

Q: 15 minute suicide grunt retreat

Andrew EckertI was playing halo reach last week and there was a suicide grunt running at me. I ran away since I had no ammo or grenades and I sure as heck wasn't going to melee him. Well I ran around a rock thinking he would blow up on his own. 15 minutes go by and that jerk still didn't die! He died when I t...

@Fluttershy I DISAGREE
 
@Fluttershy Why'd that get starred...?
 
@Fluttershy because it's spam, duh
 
@Fluttershy Because it is DAMMIT @MANA
 
5:51 AM
Oh. I get it.
 
Aw, I want a star.
 
@murgatroid99 You appealed to my interests. See how that works?
Also... that must be from the new season.
 
@Fluttershy yeah, from the premiere
@Fluttershy All part of my plan
 
@murgatroid99 I still haven't watched any of the new season yet. x_x
 
And it was flagged
@Fluttershy You should. It's good so far, and I think the next episode will be fantastic
 
5:55 AM
@GnomeSlice Stop throwing flags around.
 
@Fluttershy What?
Did someone flag me
2
DON'T APPROVE IT
 
@GnomeSlice No. I was just assuming you were the one who flagged the pony picture. Since you've been the most outspoken regarding pony pictures. =P
 
@Fluttershy Just because I don't like it doesn't mean I'm going to flag it.
 
@murgatroid99 Did you remove it? D= We can't let them win!
Oh what the hell. @Mana we need you.
Or @AshleyNunn since you're a chat moderator.
 
Did someone approve it?
WTF
 
6:02 AM
@murgatroid99 I don't agree that's off topic. I think they're asking does it happen, not why they did it that way
which, I honestly don't know if it does, as I'm almost positive I've seen grunts blow up well before they get to me
in fact, I think I've done that for laughs before... but I'll do some research for an answer
 
@Ktash Happened all the time to me.
 
@Fluttershy Yeah, I'm pretty sure to me too... but I'll fire up reach and double check that to be sure
It's time for science!
 
user15026
There, that should be fixed - that was a dumb reason for a suspend.
 
@murgatroid99 Test ping!
 
@Fluttershy I'm back
@AshleyNunn Thanks

@murgatroid99 No problem
 
@Brian Freeeeeeee flaaaaaaaaaags!
 
@Ktash He clearly asked "A grunt actually did this, why did it happen?"
 
Well that was fast....
 
that was quick!
 
6:06 AM
Nice work everypony!
 
user15026
Why the crap can't I offensive flag questions?
 
Aw, but I lost the star I worked so hard for
 
@murgatroid99 Yes. But I don't take that as "Why was it developed this way?". I take it as "Is that a bug or expected?"

user15026
Can someone with 10K tell me if they can flag questions as offensive and if so how?
 
@Ktash That's why I asked if he had ever seen the game behave differently
 
user15026
For some reason tired and cold-drugged me is like herpderp
 
@AshleyNunn I did flag that question as offensive
 
6:08 AM
@TimStone Damn... too slow.

@murgatroid99 Well, at least I know its not the cold drugs XD
 
@murgatroid99 Yeah, I also recall this
 
@TimStone I couldn't find it on our meta or MSO though
 
user15026
@TimStone If you can find info on it, let me know? Meanwhile, me and myself and I have a date in my bed, where there are flannel sheets! And blankies.

@AshleyNunn Sure. G'night!

Q: Starcraft 2 scoring: Why am I ranked last in this game

xster I'm the last player in this game. How did it calculate the ranking? So we lost the game and I didn't kill any buildings but how am I ranked even lower than the other guys in my team? Is it purely based on the 4 presented numbers or there are other invisible factors?

Darren Sadr I've recently been addicted to old PC games like Megaman x5 and Cave Story but I seem to be unable to find any more similar games, and I don't know what the genre exactly is. I'd appreciate some suggestions from an expert in this genre. tnx :)

Q: Vessel: can someone explain different nozzles?

DiegoDDI know you can get several different nozzles, but AFAIK, there are not obvious uses for them, nor the game really explains what to use them for, aside the small animation you get when making the upgrades in the workshop. So, are all the nozzles really necessary to progress through the game? or y...

+50 bounty on this. I've finished the first section of Vessel and would like to know too what the upgrades are for.
 
7:06 AM
@YiJiang Looks like I'll be playing some Vessel tomorrow. I do know there was one spot in the game where I had to use a different nozzle...
 
The upgrades system seems odd in a puzzle game. I've seen a few optional side puzzles but none so far that would benefit from a different nozzle

Q: How to delete my XCom Saves?

MikeSo first a confession: I was playing iron man, but I would cheat in that at the beginning of every month I would make a backup of the game. Then near the end of the month I would restore the game, or re-save depending how I did for the month. In doing all this I totally messed up my save menu. ...
