Gonna assume it's due to the plugin upgrade since it did work.

FAE

@ThomasMcDonald spawn him some xp potions?

GnomeSlice

Anyone seen @RavenDreamer?

@James He was on earlier today

GnomeSlice

@YoureHandsome That's getting really annoying.

@OrigamiRobot Too slow.

It took me some time to find that.

I kept looking for ti when said by "Wipqozn", which wasn't turning up (obviously).

James

@GnomeSlice Blame @OrigamiRobot.. @YoureHandsome is just mimicing the mimic :P

You're Handsome

He hasn't been on in awhile @GnomeSlice. I think he had interviews today.

Victory is mine.

It's the quality that makes me sad.

FAE

@GnomeSlice he's pretty busy with schoolstuff today

Sterno

@GnomeSlice You see what happens? Complain about ponies and something even more annoying shows up. :)

GnomeSlice

9:13 PM

Oh leave me alone.

You're Handsome

image not found, y u no like me?

I don't care enough to fix it.

I assure you it was hilarious though.

John

@YoureHandsome Unfortunately, clicking through provides the picture.

You're Handsome

@John Thank zeus.

@TylerShads you are such a meanie face

Where do you find the meta discussion on SE1.0 sites? e.g. biostars.org

Q: Should Elder Sign: Omens (iPad app) be tagged differently Elder Sign (board game)?

Elder Sign is a board game. Elder Sign: Omens is an iOS app based on the board game, but with some distinct differences. I would argue that the differences are significant enough that the two games should not be grouped under the same tag. Seeing this question which has the tag elder-sign on i...

Been up 17 hours... 9 whole views

BoardGames.SE just ain't the place that Gaming is

Nick T

thanks for the warning, won't click it to increase the count

Sterno

I don't care about the actual view count. I just wish it were addressed even if it was "no, shut up"

@BenBrocka It's really, really not.

James

@Sterno May just be me but with a name like Gaming, BoardGames and RPG etc look like subsets to me.. but we do like to only count Video games in Gaming sooo [shrug] :)

Sterno

@James I'm glad it is. Gaming has a very different feel than RPG or BoardGames

James

9:21 PM

@Sterno Yeah but I think that feel could just be in a chat room as opposed to an entire site

You're Handsome

@James Nobody uses their chat room.

Except us.

Sterno

Gaming is a lot more strict about what we consider a good question

You're Handsome

@Sterno Thank zeus.

OrigamiRobot

yesterday, by OrigamiRobot

@FAE and anyone else who plays MtG: @IanPugsley and I are trying to get BCG chat to be any amount of active.

You're Handsome

I find we are a lot stricter than a lot of the sites on the network.

43 secs ago, by You're Handsome

Except us.

Nick T

9:23 PM

That's because we'd be a shithole otherwise

James

@YoureHandsome Yeah I just try to ignore that :)

@OrigamiRobot Just sayin'.

Ronan Forman

@Ian @James @Fredy Here ya go! db.tt/cVdYqwmt

Nick T

the community of people that play videogames is wholly different from virtually every other.

badp

We're not so strict. We allow subjective questions. SO tries not to.

James

9:24 PM

@NickT As is made visible by that starred message to the right :D

badp

(They mostly fail due to volume though.)

Nick T

@James viz:

that's pretty typical of our audience I'd think

You're Handsome

@James Why? It's a good thing.

James

@NickT Should I be insulted? :)

@YoureHandsome The SE sites constantly grow and strive to be more than what they are

Except for Gaming where we are nailing down the tent as fast as we can cause we want it the way it is, not the way it could be

Nick T

@James {audience} != {chat users}

Ronan Forman

9:28 PM

@James @Ian @Fredy Don't include the intro bit, that'll be a separate video.

James

If something comes along that doesnt quite fit we do not try and see if it should fit, we just toss it out

You're Handsome

Growing and being more than what we are doesn't mean allowing any question. PArt of growing is refining your scope, which is what we do a lot.

James

@RonanForman I think our intro could be reshot or just left off completely.. It was 30s of us watching @GnomeSlice dig holes in ice everyone complaining about lag

Nick T

Yeah, and because we're growing so fast it means that we have to ban all these questions

Ronan Forman

@James I'll do something tomorrow.

James

9:29 PM

@YoureHandsome I think you will find the definition of Refine to be akin to Narrow which I think is the opposite of Growth?

@NickT I can not tell if this is sarcasm or not :)

Ian Pugsley

@RonanForman obkb

James

@RonanForman End of Day 1 video?

You're Handsome

@James You seem to be misunderstand what I mean by growth. I don't mean we are increasing the questions we allow, I mean we are growing as a community and a site.

StrixVaria

I don't know what he's saying but I'm so glad I can't see it.

Ronan Forman

@James Stick it at the end of day 1, and the intro at the start.

James

9:31 PM

@StrixVaria Nothing brings me more joy than knowing I can say whatever I want and never have to deal with you again :)

Ahh, Nice ending clip!

OrigamiRobot

Mar 14 at 23:09, by Ktash

@RavenDreamer Can't we all just get along?

James

Wish I had a better editing tool

Ronan Forman

@James what do you use?

James

Are the play buttons going to link to each other's videos or to the next video in the sequence for that person?

Windows Live Movie Maker :)

John

Gah!

I've explored the entire map, but I'm still one trinket short!

James

9:34 PM

@RonanForman and why does it look like I have something not age appropriate in my hand???

@OrigamiRobot We co-exist, its all good ;)

John

@YoureHandsome! Where's that last trinket!

James

@RonanForman @GnomeSlice's character is still the best IMHO :)

You're Handsome

@John I have no idea what you're asking me. I assume you just wanted to compliment me.

Nick T

so does anyone program in python/do you use an IDE?

John

@YoureHandsome I've explored the entire map, but I'm still one trinket short. Where is it?!

@NickT Geany.

You're Handsome

9:36 PM

@NickT Python <3

Ronan Forman

@James it's a redstone torch, closest thing to a sonic screwdriver.

You're Handsome

Also, IDE? ew. All the cools kids use VIM. tortoise shades

Or Notepad++ if you're on windows.

Nick T

I use n++

You're Handsome

@John I have no idea what you're talking about.

John

@YoureHandsome I like Nano, but it can be a pain sometimes. Like deleting large chunks.

@YoureHandsome VVVVVV!

You're Handsome

9:37 PM

@John Oh, that.

I don't know. It's been awhile since I played it.

James

...

John

@YoureHandsome :(

James

@RonanForman Did you notice the highlight on the heart in the intro video is wrong?

spugsley

@YoureHandsome you can't fool me. I know who you are

Nick T

So in any case, is an IDE+Python rare, somewhat rare, uncommon, or common

like what color WoW item would it be

Ronan Forman

9:38 PM

@James It's on purpose.

You're Handsome

@spugsley Flattery will get you no where.

James

@spugsley I do not think he is fooling anyone cept himself ;)

@YoureHandsome (except in the work-place)

You're Handsome

Besides, you're a married woman @spugsley!

John

@NickT Well, @MarcoCeppi uses Geany also, but I'm not sure about the rest of the world.

You're Handsome

Can't go around putting the moves on every tortoise that moves.

Tortoise joke made. I think I'm done here. tortoise shades

@NickT I'm fairly certain Python+IDE is very, very rare.

I think the majority of PYthon devs just use Notepad++. If they are developing in windows anyways.

John

9:40 PM

@YoureHandsome Boo Windows.

You're Handsome

@John Yeah. I'd use Linux more if it wasn't for the fact I like me my video games.

Also, VIM <3

Said it a minute ago, but saying it again!

spugsley

@YoureHandsome I like to play this game where I think of really mean things to say to you and you make it so easy that it isn't fun anymore :/

also, I don't think @YoureHandsome at all :/

Ronan Forman

Oh ho! The joke backfired!

James

Hmm, so Germany seems to have 100 holidays a year... maybe I should look to moving that o way :)

Ben Brocka

@YouKindaSmellFunny

FAE

9:49 PM

@James The Dutch population is nearly 50% atheist but they get a ton of religious holidays off, like even Pentecost and Ascension.

Ronan Forman

@FAE Officially athiest? Cool!

James

@FAE Atheist or Agnostic?

Ronan Forman

@James @Ian @Fredy Don't forget to upload the videos as unlisted.

James

@RonanForman Are we putting them under our own or G.SE's?

FAE

@James "niet gelovig"

Ronan Forman

9:51 PM

G.SE's makes more sense, but it's your footage...

FAE

Nick T

@James TVTropes tells me "While Germans do, indeed, have a sense of humour, they also strictly divide work time and leisure time (see Oktoberfest)."

Raven Dreamer

@FAE Okay, I'm free! (for now)

Did you still need me?

Nick T

James

@FAE Ah, kk.. Was going to say. True atheists tend to preach no god as much as non-atheists preach a god or gods.

FAE

9:53 PM

@RavenDreamer @Gnome was looking for you. Agent86 was able to take care of what I needed.

James

Raven Dreamer

@James That's... sorta a stereotype, don'cha think?

Ronan Forman

@James That doesn't make it (like) a religion.

James

@RavenDreamer Not really I think thats more actual definition of a word vs what people use it? Which is why I asked atheist vs agnostic (agnostics are generally those who do not care and live their lives :))

OrigamiRobot

@James I think this is a horrible thing to say.

Ian Pugsley

9:55 PM

@James true atheists don't preach, and recognize that there's no such thing as true atheists

You're Handsome

@spugsley Well that's just rude.

Raven Dreamer

@James Then you need a new dictionary.

"True Atheist" is an oxymoron.

badp

You're Handsome

What have I ever done to you @spugsley to deserve such hurtful words?

FAE

@badp Haha, I saw that vid

StrixVaria

9:55 PM

Wow I went in the transcript and that might be the stupidest thing James has ever said, which is incredibly impressive with his track record.

badp

(reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/q8h0h/…)

spugsley

well I'm sorry that saying @YoureHandsome is a lie :/

OrigamiRobot

@James Agnostics can be simply undecided.

You're Handsome

@spugsley lololol

spugsley

@YoureHandsome the fact that you don't know makes it worse

Ronan Forman

9:56 PM

Technically you can't be either athiest or agnostic.

Raven Dreamer

Would anyone mind overmuch if I ab used my mod powers to cleanse the gifs?

FAE

@StrixVaria You're not helping :P

Raven Dreamer

@RonanForman Yeah. "Agnostic [INSERT RELIGION HERE]". There's no such belief as plain "Agnosticism".

user2334

Meh is the God of Agnosticism: he/she/it/whatever is a truly apathetic and indifferent god.

FAE

I'm sorry I brought it up, argh. -_-

James

9:58 PM

@FAE as am I

Ronan Forman

And the atheist thing is that you know there isn't a god, which makes no sense, you can't prove something doesn't exist.

badp

@RavenDreamer wat. That's not how I thought agnosticism worked at all. Wasn't agnosticism all about "you can't prove god exists, you can't prove god doesn't exist; we can't know so there's really no point in this whole religion thing"?

James

I mean I am sitting here reading the wikipedia page thinkg I may have misunderstood it

But nope, there it is, Atheism is a part of many religions that simply tout No God(s)

You're Handsome

Oh, are we arguing about religion?

StrixVaria

@badp You can believe one way or the other despite lack of evidence.

James

9:58 PM

Sooo Yeah, No idea why I am getting all this hate

badp

@YoureHandsome I'm just doublechecking I got that right

Raven Dreamer

@badp The way I understand it is simpler: "I've been taught X, but I have doubts about it".

badp

(whereas atheism is the active belief that no god exists)

StrixVaria

Although lack of evidence one way is itself evidence the other way...

There is such a thing as an agnostic theist.

Which is weird to me.

You're Handsome

> Agnosticism is the view that the truth values of certain claims—especially claims about the existence or non-existence of any deity, but also other religious and metaphysical claims—are unknown or unknowable

OrigamiRobot

9:59 PM

There is no such thing as proof of anything

You're Handsome

I think wikipedia says it just fine.

Raven Dreamer

@James "Part of". It's not a religion on its own.

You're Handsome

@OrigamiRobot I'm very disappointed in you. You were doing so well.
