I didn't want to bother findding an apple store to find it, I just ordered it direct

in-store pickup wasnt an option for me eiter

@NickT it is all about the intent. How many people would care if i said fuck right now? Do I care? no. If i call someone a motherfucker then I'm out of line and should be flagged.

John

Am I seeing things, or did this vote count just change right before my eyes?!

Yep, it is.

@John New feature

John

@MarkTrapp Totally awesome.

user2334

I, too, thought I was tripping balls when I first saw it

John

12:07 AM

Now we just need comments and answers to update automatically, and we'll never need to refresh again! :D

user2334

Right now it's only on Gaming and MSO

Tristan

@John What are you talking about?

Ronan Forman

I noticed that too. I thought I was going crazy.

Wipqozn

@MarkTrapp someone should up vote that so I can see it

John

@Tristan When viewing a question, the vote counts (probably not on mobile yet, though) automatically update.

Tristan

12:09 AM

Oh, @MarkTrapp Nice work on that Hands of Time solver by the way.

Ronan Forman

Ronan you are crazy.

LessPop_MoreFizz

@MarkTrapp I wonder why Gaming got it first.

John

@RonanForman This.

So, what class should I play for this new ME1 run?

Why do you have to say mean things all the time.

user2334

@Wipqozn Link me an upvote-worthy post and I'll up vote it so hard

user2334

@Tristan Thanks: figures it was a dupe and everyone and their mother has a solver already :P

You're the one talking to your self.

12:11 AM

@John I'm guessing it's because we're out of sync with the other sites build schedules because of fancy mass-effect theme maybe?

Wipqozn

@MarkTrapp I think this answer by that handsome fellow is worthy of an up vote. Look at all those pictures! There are free-hand arrows and everything.

John

It's so weird seeing >10k-ers from here go to MSO and then I have ~5k more rep than them...

Ronan Forman

Yeah, it's called being crazy!

John

@LessPop_MoreFizz Nah, themes are no big deal to change. They accidentally deployed the theme changer to the live version of MSO once.

user2334

@LessPop_MoreFizz MSO is a test-bed for new features so that's a given; I think they probably chose gaming as a non mission-critical stress test, being the SE 2.0 site with the most traffic

Nick T

12:12 AM

@TylerShads I'm confused, didn't I address that in my question?

Tristan

@Wipqozn Did you see Shinrai's comment on my Tali face answer? I was appalled that he didn't like that fan art picture!

user2334

@Wipqozn Okay, watch it now

Nick T

@TylerShads I was trying to divorce answers from all those pointless words

Wipqozn

oh man that was so exciting

user2334

@Wipqozn See it?

Oh btw @Wipqozn, I can't figure out how to get this emulator to actually save my game.

@LessPop_MoreFizz What'd you think of the fan art of Tali I linked in my answer about her face? >.>

Wipqozn

@John If I'm going to get someone an up vote, mine as well be me.

John

@Wipqozn I'll ask when I get back to a computer that might actually have a save on it. Just realized that's a different one.

@Wipqozn True, true.

LessPop_MoreFizz

@Tristan I kind of don't actually care what Tali looks like.

@Wipqozn Why those two?

I REQUIRE DETAILED ANALYSIS.

Ronan Forman

Speaking of upvotes, my singularity question needs one more vote to be in the 8+ category.

Wipqozn

@LessPop_MoreFizz They're fun.

LessPop_MoreFizz

12:16 AM

@Wipqozn In what way are they more fun than Infiltrator or Sentinel or Vanguard?

Tristan

@LessPop_MoreFizz Me either, but I think that one's my favorite as far as guesses go. It was certainly better than the stock photo(shop) they used.

Ronan Forman

I didn't realise that headset was $140. Now I want it even more!

Tristan

@LessPop_MoreFizz I enjoyed the Vanguard I started. =)

Wipqozn

@LessPopMoreFizz: They play considerable different than a soldier. The other classes, except for sentinel, focus a lot more on weapons than abilities. Engineer/adept have a lot of focus on their abilities, making them play quite a bit different than soldier.

Ronan Forman

How can they afford all this?!?

Tristan

12:17 AM

@Wipqozn Adept. Not Adapt.

Wipqozn

@Tristan Just testing you.

LessPop_MoreFizz

@Wipqozn And why not Sentinel then?

Tristan

Uh-huh...

Wipqozn

@LessPop_MoreFizz Because I've never played it, so I can't comment on how enjoyable it is.

Q: Can I just walk away from conversations?

Mass Effect 3 has plenty of situations where you overhear someone talking about artifacts/ect and then a mission is added to your list. Other times you drop off an item, or settle an argument, earning rewards like rep or credits. I'm...not patient, and I sometimes walk away immediately after "se...

I put this together from bits and pieces of other tools that I've built in the past: http://withoutthesarcasm.com/stackapps/ Click on "ME3Mission" to load the tool. You'll be prompted by Stack Exchange for access to some account information. There's details about what that means and what data...

@badp DLC quest is somewhat overrated, imho

badp

I'm kinda surprised it sells for money

agent86

I picked it up on XBLIG when it became popular there, and I found it to be relatively simplistic and kind of stupid

I did, however, enjoy "achievement unlocked" series, which is in the same satirical vein and quite a bit better executed

user15026

@agent86 I like the achievement unlocked games.... bought DLC quest hoping it was like that. I haven't played it yet. is it really not good? :(

Q: How to repair a malfunctionning button on a PS3 Dualshock controller

The X button stopped working on one of my PS3 controllers. It's hardly through abuse, the controller isn't a year old and I don't play a lot (well, not as much as I'd like). The button doesn't stick, it presses like the others, only the system isn't aware that I'm using it. I tried resetting it ...

Any arkham city experts around?

Any idea how to get back into the smoke stack of the furnance? there's a trophy down there i need to get

Ullallulloo

1:18 AM

@SimonSheehan You sure?

I thought that area collapsed.

Simon Sheehan

@Ullallulloo wikicheats.gametrailers.com/Batman:_Arkham_City_-_PC_PS3_XB360/… Row 1 #1

Not sure how else to get there

It has to be accessible too, all the other areas have been that include trophies. Not sure why this one wouldn't be.

And it is the LAST riddler trophy for me

Ullallulloo

I guessing you have to head back in from the rest of the mill somehow.

Simon Sheehan

God damn..

Ullallulloo

I remember large areas collapsing the first time, and he mentions it being too hot to go that way the second time.

agent86

@SimonSheehan you can't get back in there, from what I remember

user15026

1:22 AM

@agent86 :( Oh well. It was only 80 xbox points, so that's not too bad.

Ullallulloo

@AshleyNunn It's in the Indie Royale, you know.

Simon Sheehan

Yep, cant go back in directly through that smoke stack

gotta go the long way

agent86

later there will be a door that takes you back into the steel mill, but you'll have to go all the way back around to that part of the furnace. I think there's another hole in the ceiling somewhere as well

Simon Sheehan

Ahh...well thats annoying

user15026

@Ullallulloo I know, but I didn't really want any of the other games, and I had spare xbox points that I wasn't immediately using for anything, so I didn't have to spend more money for things I didnt want.

Simon Sheehan

1:23 AM

This is the LAST trophy

agent86

@SimonSheehan you can get all the trophies though

Ullallulloo

@AshleyNunn That's good then.

Simon Sheehan

@agent86 Yep, just gotta do some back tracking. huge pain in my ass.

Ullallulloo

Vetex Dispenser's pretty fun though, and I'd like to try Hard Reset.

agent86

you have to go back to the big room where you first fought the abramoff guy (the one armed hammer wielding dude)

Simon Sheehan

1:24 AM

im just trying to find the second steel mill entrance

agent86

there's a way back into the partially collapsed section of the mill, iirc. I didn't get those trophies until the very end of the game, so it's possible, just a lot of backtracking

Simon Sheehan

One way is in a door on the side, the other way goes through the room the joker is in

agent86

@SimonSheehan yeah, you can't find the door? or the joker room one?

Simon Sheehan

There's a door on the steel mill that goes directly to that room, which is near where I need to go

agent86

@SimonSheehan I can't say I ever found that entrance. I always went in through the same door, which takes you to the part where the water is flowing

someone told me you can get back in that way, but damned if I know how

Simon Sheehan

1:26 AM

@agent86 yeah it is is here... I mean I just went out it to get out. But now I cant find it now..

agent86

hah!

agent86

okay, time to finish ME3

Simon Sheehan

What the.. it was in the wide open @agent86 haha
