Gah, ggClassic thanks for these "wonderful" questions
 
Lots of low rep users posting a lot of questions and answers... hmm, there must be a competition going on ;)

Q: What does commentator say when baron kills your entire team?

Drew D'Alfonspas the title states What happens when the baron kills your whole team?

Q: Does the 'Channel' on Nocturne's fear continue if he is whimsy'd by LuLu?

ConfusedkillersJust wondering if when Nocturne casts fear, and you whimsy him as LuLu will it stop the cast or will it continue? (provided he stays in range)

Q: League of legends: good sites to follow for tournament news, reviews, replays, schedules, interviews, etc?

user22134So I'm beginning to follow league of legend tournaments so I was curious what are good sites for finding tournament news, reviews, replays, schedules, interviews, etc? Thanks in advance!

 
@murgatroid99 Yes.
 
I'm gonna break my closing hand thanks to this SE
 
7:12 PM
I don't play LoL but that seems like "What does the announcer say when I get a triple kill?"
 
@Ktash cries Our site...our beautiful site...
:(
 
@John I blame you!
 
@RonanForman Am I too late?
 
@Ktash There is a unique phrase, I think, I'll try to find an answer so that question doesn't look overly pitiful
 
ME3 questions >>> current LoL questions
 
7:16 PM
@Rapida Well, there is an answer there (which I just cleaned up) but it still seems like a ridiculous question. I downvoted.
 
@badp LOL
 
I don't even know what to say
 
@Wipqozn But....why?
 
@John Why not?
 
Mod want to either transfer that to a comment or burn
 
7:19 PM
Are these people representative of LoL players?
 
@Ktash Haha, I like that answer :)
 
@Wipqozn :(
 
@BenBrocka YES! Yes Yes YES!
 
@Ktash Well, I guess it is technically an answer, just not a good one...
 
@Ktash Yeah. Bad answers are still answers
Just down vote them to oblivion :)
 
7:21 PM
I'm not going to have enough down-votes on the day...
 
We're gonna need a bigger downvote

What's with all the terrible answers to my question?

Q: Why are some weapon fusions blocked out with a question mark?

WipqoznIn the weapon fusion menu, some combinations of items contain an "X" in their location box, and both their name and display image are just quesiton marks (??? and ? respectively). I'm unable to combine these items, but my instincts tell me that there is something more to this. Is there some res...

 
@Wipqozn Influx of new (not very experienced) users who are probably more used to forum type sites than this type of site.
 
@Ktash So it would seem.
I was expecting for this mostly to be localized to LoL questions.
 
the flags, they are a'flyin
@Wipqozn protected
 
7:28 PM
@agent86 Thank you kind sir.
 
Jin
@RonanForman i haven't started playing ME3 yet
 
@Jin he is playing atm twitch.tv/stackgaming
 
I'm still not satisfied with my answer to that Baron "terminated" question. Does anyone want to go die to Baron in a custom test game?
 
@Rapida I got some spare time. I can fire up LoL if you just need bodies
 
That's all I need
 
7:33 PM
Alright, I'm updating now
 
k, my summoner name is Rapida
 
alright, I'll add you when I get it running. I don't remember my name, but I think it should be something like Ktash
 
@Wipqozn ROFL, that should be WTF

Q: Why does the nexus sometimes give 25g sometimes?

BozbaccaIn league of legends why does that happen? I mean it's the end of the game...surely its useless EVERYTIME.

Q: League of legends: which characters stealth can be detected by green wards?

KeegWhich characters stealth can be detected by green wards? (note not purple which normally used for detecting stealth). For example I know Wukong can be detected by green wards during his clone, but I was curious if they where other champions that can be detected in a similar fashion?

 
7:37 PM
@James That would ruin the joke.
 
Bam, corrected. I knew that Baron "Terminated" sounded suspicious. Still testing it in a custom game with the awesome @Ktash but found a quote from the creator gaming.stackexchange.com/a/57968/3015
 
@OrigamiRobot Can you turn on our secret project server? I wanna show it to a friend of mine.
 
7:57 PM
@Tristan I like the new gravatar.
 
@Wipqozn Thanks. I figured since the ME3 missions were over, Fluttershep was no longer the best choice.
 
order wings? Or order chinese?
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz chinese. I think you had wings just a couple of days ago
 
@agent86 Yes, but I am living out of hotel rooms. Eating TGIMcChiliBees non stop is normal. :/
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz :(
I used to go to the grocery store and buy stuff to eat in my room - eating out constantly tended to make me sick
 
8:04 PM
@agent86 yeah, I normally do that, and normally try to book rooms with a real kitchen.

Q: League of legends: What is the difference between knock-up and suppression effect?

KeegWhat is the difference between knock-up and suppression effects? Both are hard cc that stops movement and abilities, but I was a curious if there were difference between the two other then animation?

0
Q: The enemy team is doing baron, do you fight or go for a inhibitor?

NowarezThe enemy team is doing baron. Both team is equally strong but you see a opportunity to get a inhibitor in exchange for a baron. What alternative is more worth?

0
Q: why is map visibility so important?

DarkAverilI have noticed that in a few of the commentaries they say that the reason a team lost was because they didn't see the map enough. Is it truly that important to see the whole map?

0
Q: Does Nunu's ultimate get cancel by any crowd control?

JuanDoes nunu ultimate get cancel by any crowd control(cc) like a slow or is it hard cc like a snare or stun?

 
But I've been moving around too much.
 
@BenBrocka Yeah, sorry.
 
well, the LoL contest certainly got us a bunch of new users...
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz blargh
 
8:10 PM
Chinese place has cream cheese wontons. Chinese place is clearly terrible. Wings it is!
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz not a fan of the cream cheese wontons?
 
@agent86 They are a foul imitation of real fried wontons.
Which have Pork goddamnit. I don't want any of your crab meat garbage either.
 
I think I may be going insane. I'm trying to sleep of my cold... and I dreamt of Gaming.Stackexchange contests.
There has got to be something better to dream about.
 
@RavenDreamer did you win?
 
@agent86 No.
 
8:19 PM
@LessPop_MoreFizz haha, I don't know, I like them on occasion.
 
Umm... Neverwinter Nights 2 is ONE DOLLAR in the Mac App Store.
 
@agent86 But only because there was a massive conspiracy against me.
 
@RavenDreamer then yes, there are better things to dream about :P
@LessPop_MoreFizz I'd buy that for a dollar.
 
@agent86 Pretty much.
I mean, sans expansions it's not great.
But ONE FUCKING DOLLAR.
 
the only thing is I hate the mac app store. that and I own NWN 1 diamond and have yet to install it (although I played the base game from start to finish once upon a time)
 
8:22 PM
@agent86 MAS is actually pretty nice in my experience.

they... they nuked me
those bastards nuked me
OKAY ITS ON NOW
 
I was going to make a starcraft 2 comment, but then it occured that you're probably talking about Civ V.
 
I didn't even notice, I've been watching this during the enemy turns
just went back to my territory and there's fallout >:|
 
8:27 PM
The Bridge: Come chat with us in blissful ignorance as nukes rain down upon your people.
 
Jin
is it all about nukez now? lazers not cool enough?
 
@agent86 Was it Ghandi? That guy always nukes me
 
@Rapida well, I think it was the germans. I'm kind of stomping them. I've lost I think 2 units the whole war
@RavenDreamer some people fiddle while their cities burn, I chat :P
 
Stupid nuke-happy Gandhi.
 
Nice, I just lost to the Germans last night. They just destroyed me with Panzers after I'd been their ally the entire game
 
8:29 PM
Unfortunately, the way Civ V DLC rolled out turned me away from the game.
Collector's Edition exclusive civilizations? Psh. I'll take my money elsewhere, thankyou.
 
@Rapida this is only on Prince, since I tend to like to stomp the AI. I'm playing "huge" map though, for the achievement. I pretty much spent all day on it yesterday and today
 
This reminds me of a question I wanted to ask about civ5
 
@Jin It is the nature of war to escalate to ever deadlier forms.
The main site has Lazers, so now you must give Meta Nukes!
 
A nice mushroom cloud on hover
 
NUKES FOR META! WE WANT NUKES!

@LessPop_MoreFizz Isn't that what the delete button is?

Q: What is the most important for league play?

DarkAverilWhat is the most important thing you should do or practice if you want to become a league of legends, League player?

 
@Lazers I dislike those type of questions.
 
Jin
"if you give gaming.se users a cookie..."
 
@Jin They demand an ice cream sundae?
 
8:37 PM
Wait, no one gave me cookies I only got some pens. I demand cookies!
 
@Lazers Isn't this a dupe of something? I feel like we had a question about the fundamentals of LoL play with some really good answers a while ago.
 
@Jin What is this?
 
I really want a cookie now.
I blame @Jin.
 
Jin
 
8:39 PM
AAAAAHHHHHH now i have to decide if i should go down and buy cookies before the store closes in 20min
 
@Rapida Yeah, just found that. What do you think?
 
@Wipqozn Me too. I blame @Jin too. We should make him give us cookies as an apology for making us want them.
 
I think so, covers the same points with better descriptions and videos.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz I concur.
 
Jin
i'm not hungry at all. i'm stuffed in fact. i just cooked out
 
8:51 PM
I thought I had some chocolate chip oatmeal cookies... but I don't. Now I'm depressed. #firstworldproblems
 
Cool story bro.

@StrixVaria Sorry about the last drawing... I couldn't help myself

Q: Why does Ghandi want to nuke me?

RapidaDifferent civilizations obvioulsy have different priorities. For example, Ghandi always seems to rush nuke technology and the Mongols will most likely start invading and spread like mad. Are these variables public knowledge? Can you tell by who you are playing what strategy they will adopt during...

Q: Is Sona a better as Defensive support or an Aggressive one?

DarkAverilIs Sona a better defensive support champ or is it plausible to use her in a more aggressive role? I have built her up in bot games for her passive nuke but would that be plausible in pro play?

0
Q: Is there a point to collecting duplicate idols?

Joe WreschnigI've got a ton of idols scanned from AR cards, so I've gotten quite a few duplicates playing the idol toss game. As I can tell the Vault Idols collection is just an model gallery, with no way to trade idols in for anything and no additional information to be unlocked. But on the other hand, it's...

Q: Why does Phreak feel the need to jungle every character?

TiddlyHe even jungled LuLu in the champion spotlight...lets be real. Not every champion is suited for the jungle, and it creates the urge to troll in games by taking the role of champions better suited for the the jungle position.

Q: Can you Zillean ulti a yourick zombie?

PrionOr vice-versa; does it just not activate or does it actually work?

2
Q: Does exhausting a champion reduce the damage done by it's minions?

IgnisPolymitariusFor example: I'm playing as Mordekaiser and have a ghost of Graves, if I(Mordekaiser) get exhausted, does that reduce my ghost's damage? Is it the same with Annie and Tibbers, Yorick and his ghouls?

Q: How do you get into the pro league of legends scene?

BunnyI recently started a team with my friends and brothers and we are interested in participating in tournaments. I know about go4lol and the ggchronicle tourneys, but I was wondering what other options there are, too. Right now we are working on getting highly ranked on the server and asking oth...

Q: Does Viegar's Baleful Strike (Q) Need to do the kill blow on a champion to gain ap or is it passive?

StoutfishThe tool tip is very vague in it's description. I know you need to q a minion to gain ap, but how does it interact with champions?

0
Q: What role is the safest first pick?

IKSnicurWhat is the safest role to first pick in tournament draft mode? Would the role be support role, I see a lot of Janna Firstpicks? If not, What Champion, Why?

Q: Why is Kassadin not played in tournaments?

TheHonkeningWhy is Kassadin not played very often in high-level competitive play? In casual play he is an almost constant ban, but not in the big tournaments streamed online as part of Season 2, such as the ggChronicle going on at the moment.

Calling all folks capable of casting close votes.
We're taking heavy fire on the front page of gaming.
I repeat: we'll take any assistance you can provide!
 
Oh, right. I have LoL ignored.
That's why I don't see all these terrible questions cloggy up my page.
 
Argh, must get 163 more reps to close all the things.
 
Also, I know almost nothing about LoL, so not comfortable throwing around close votes.
 
Suggested edits would be worthwhile also.
 
Can we search for ones with close votes?

Q: Do esoteric rules enforced in a draconian manner benefit the site?

I believe this is detrimental to the site as a whole. ID this game questions, compari...

 
I can't really do much on the mobile site…
 
@RavenDreamer: should users be posting "ggchronicle leagueoflegends." to the end of their questions?
I remember reading something about that, but thought it was for profiles/.
 
@Wipqozn No. You're right. I think an announcner might be telling the wrong thing.
 
9:15 PM
@RavenDreamer My oh my. That fellow.
I'm on it though.
Writing up a response to his meta.
 
Already done one, but yeah, the more the merrier.
 
The announcer did specify profiles at least once
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz gaming.stackexchange.com/review/close might be non-10k.
 
Also, he's been a member for a year and has 400 rep.
@Arda This page requires more privileges.
I demand a rock!
 
The Beach Boys they aren't.

Q: Are Health Pots a Waste of Gold?

user22177I've been playing for about a year and a half now and some of my friends would rather not buy pots saying "it's a waste of money and time".

Q: Under what conditions will bots leave their lane before level 6?

Dave McClellandIn every bot game I've played, the bots will wait until level 6 to leave their lane for ganks. Today, however, I was surprised by a gank at level 4! Was this caused by a change in the bot AI, or something else? We destroyed the tower in our lane extremely early on, is this the reason for the c...

3 hours ago, by LessPop_MoreFizz
@Mana I think it has a lot to do with the communities being promoted to, tbqh. There are many things to recommend about the MOBA player base, but their extensive command of the english language has never been one of them.
 
A huge problem is always expectation management, many user might arrive here expecting something closer to a traditional forum.
 
user2334
Most of them seem to be "play the game for me" questions
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Touche about Sponsor.
 
9:33 PM
@RavenDreamer hahah I was wondering if you'd catch that.
 
Yeah, I'm not sure what to do with some of these questions. I disagree with the basic premise on a few of them.
This answer is overly localized, is that flag worthy? gaming.stackexchange.com/a/58063/3015
 
I don't feel capable of moderating the LoL questions, they seem to be written in a completely foreign language
 
What do we do with answers that are just repeated the same answer over and over? Flag the question for protection somehow?
 
I don't know what @GraceNote's excuse is.
 
@RavenDreamer Excuse for what?
 
9:36 PM
@Rapida That's a site-wide problem, though. Just look at our most-viewed question.
@Tristan For not being here.
 
@RavenDreamer Oh.
 
Speak of the devil... hello, @Fae!
 
Would it be possible to get one of us on the stream with the commentator, at least to stop him from promoting the site wrong.
 
And now I've learned a valuable lesson to boot!
 
@RavenDreamer How do I search for the most viewed question? >.>
 
Oh. Thanks. =D
 
@RonanForman Do we know that that's the case though? You can go watch the stream yourself to verify it if not. Could also just be that People R Dums.
 
And people are dums.
 
I'm not watching the stream, maybe he's not advertising wrong but maybe just not well enough.
 
9:40 PM
@LessPop_MoreFizz I just think people took the time to read the contest rules, but didn't take the time to read the site rules... Which is a big problem.
 
The FAQ button needs to be quicker.
 
Can someone with enough rep to do so synonymize to ? And strip it from those 8 SC2 Questions before or after doing so?
 
It's actually pretty much what I expect when this site is promoted to a gaming audience, I'm more suprised that we haven't had more quality problems earlier

@RavenDreamer I don't know what sorcery you're using, but I see the comment you left me in my inbox but I don't see it on the question.
@RavenDreamer ARE YOU A WITCH?!
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Not sure it should be synonymized, probably should just be nuked
 
9:42 PM
@DaveMcClelland My love for you is invisible, that's all.
 
@RavenDreamer No one's ever visibly loved me, so that's no surprise
 
Okay, you lot are going to have to man the trenches. I need to quell a rebellion in my stomach.
 
@Fabian Well, whatever, someone should do it before we get more new questions tagged . I've taken it off of 3 today already.
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz Mods can't nuke tags unfortunately, and I don't think I have any rep in those tags so I can't vote for synonyms anyway
 
Shame on you @RavenDreamer. You should know better than to use posts for messaging.
:P
 
9:47 PM
@RavenDreamer You beat me to that League re-tag by like five seconds....
 
@Tristan @RavenDreamer is in panic battle mode.
 
I think this generated a lot more activity than round one because it is on the featured area of own3d.tv
 
user2334
How long is the thing going on? Might be wise to cut people some slack until we're not the focus of some major promotional thing. Can picture it now, "Come visit Gaming.SE: oh look, they're closing all the league of legends questions. Nevermind, screw Gaming.SE! Now back to LoL coverage"
 
Maybe we should have a question queue that higher rep users can see before they go to the site to avoid this spam.
 
Oh geez. @RavenDreamer, wanna tag out for a bit? I can watch the site for the next hour.
 
9:51 PM
Not on all the time, but when this happens.
 
@Mana I think he already went to get food
 
You know, if you gave me mod powers I could help out...
 
@Wipqozn Hahaha. This from the guy who just admitted not being comfortable doing 1/5th of the job closing LoL questions.
 
So we delete questions before they get to the site to avoid the problem @MarkTrapp said.
 
@John sshh, don't tell them that!
Also, I'd be happy to cast close votes on LoL questions, just not the first one. I don't know enough about the game to make judgement calls on which questions work. Some obviously don't work, but others I can't tell since I don't understand enough about the game to understand the question.
 
9:54 PM
@MarkTrapp Man, I'm always so conflicted about this stuff. Like, that's what I'm worried about too, right? But I still want to be a good moderator and keep the site clean of content that we don't want. And they're gathering answers so fast that you need to jump the gun.
 
@Wipqozn "I'd be happy to cast close votes on LoL questions, just not the first one." We don't want hivemind voting.
 
@John That is to say, if someone casts a close vote, ad provides an explanation which I can understand and agree with, I'd be happy to cast another.
 
@Wipqozn That's a bit better. Explanation is good.

Q: What exactly is QSS?

DarkAverilI was reading a response to one of my questions and I came across a term I have no idea what it means. QSS as well as like CS... really I could use someone to tell me what all the terms in league of legends mean. XD Total noob status with not knowing the terms. XD

 
oh my god.
 
9:58 PM
community is certainly flagging at a crazy rate
 
user2334
@Mana Yeah, it's tricky: I mean, if it's just for an hour, waiting can work. But if they're constantly promoting it all weekend… ugh.
 
Maybe deleting would be a better choice then.
