This may be ambitious but would anyone be else be interested in adding descriptions to the places on this awesome list? gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/66418/…

like for example, what kind of elite/champion is in that dungeon, if their a merchant, if there's an achievement for visiting it, etc etc

@spugsley Not find of the GameFAQs style list questions like that. :/

@FAE okay, just a thought :)

A: List questions for The Old Republic / MMOs -- CW, closure, other?

They tend to eke into the "too broad" category, often. See the following, which I think is a good metric:

Stack Exchange isn't GameFAQs. What do I mean by that? I mean that what we do well isn't Big Lists of Stuff. As a general rule of thumb, if I know the scope of the answer set, my 'I know it when I see it' guideline for a question that's too broad is, "Would I be willing to take the time to compo...

Q: Is there a difference between IAS from armor and weapon IAS?

12:30 AM

Dupe votes plx:

1

In Diablo 2, there was a difference between Increase Attack Speed (IAS) on weapons and IAS from other sources (such as Armor/Jewelry). I started to wonder about the same in Diablo 3, when I looked at weapons that have an IAS property, such as this axe: http://eu.battle.net/d3/en/artisan/blacksmi...

Q: Do Bunkers give increased range to units inside in SCII?

When units are inside a bunker, does this bunker give them additional range? I believe in SC and/or SC:BW they gave units an increased range. Is this true in either? Basically: Do bunkers give range benefits to units inside?

I'm sure I forgot someone.

@Wipqozn I hate you.

@Mana aww, I think you're a great guy too! hugs

well that's new. I can the history button on deleted messages.

1:05 AM

Yeah, you should have been able to before (as room owner), but there was a minor issue that prevented the link from appearing.

@TimStone huh, cool. I knew I could see deleted messages before, but I would need to manually enter the url.

Okay I really do have a problem

I just found a shield

and I was pretty sure it was the "Ragged Scrotum of Assault"

it's not

it's definitely "Scutum" but you can see my confusion

Holy crap @IanPugsley. Satisfy your wife, jesus.

If it makes you feel better, I also had to do a double-take the first time one of those dropped.

@Mana Have you heard The Tallest Man on Earth?

1:11 AM

But yeah, geeze @spugsley, contain yourself!

@LessPop_MoreFizz Sounds familiar

@Mana Swedish dude. Sounds like Bob Dylan. Has a new album coming out on Tuesday that is Very Very Good

@LessPop_MoreFizz that's a horrible name for an album.

@Mana no, the name of the album is "There's no Leaving Now".

Being Very Very Good was a qualitative assessment.

By me, a PROFESSIONAL MUSIC ENTHUSIAST.

@LessPop_MoreFizz I know, I was kidding! Geez.

1:15 AM

@Mana I know! I was using your clever punchline as a clever segue to provide additional information about the record!

@LessPop_MoreFizz oh geez. I got tricked.

@Mana You gullible fool.

It is okay though. We Professional Music Enthusiasts are known for being a wily and tricksome lot. There is no shame in it.

@LessPop_MoreFizz I guess I'm a Lesser Music Enthusiast.

@Mana Not Lesser. Just an Amateur.

@Wipqozn Why'd you ping @Fluttershy twice?

@FAE Because he's just that awesome.

Christ, you guys have gotten instant at that.

Which reminds me. I really need to come up with a name for my Archer.

@Mana Also, have you heard the hilarious joke that is the new Iggy Pop album?

ooo, I could go with Felix.

Hey Charlotte crew, your Basketball team is even more embarrassing than you thought.

@YiJiang Moire pattern

user2334

Moiré pattern

In physics, a moiré pattern (; French: ) is an interference pattern created, for example, when two grids are overlaid at an angle, or when they have slightly different mesh sizes. Etymology The term originates from moire (or moiré in its French form), a type of textile, traditionally of silk but now also of cotton or synthetic fiber, with a rippled or 'watered' appearance. The history of the word moiré is complicated. The earliest agreed origin is the Arabic mukhayyar (مُخَيَّر in Arabic, which means chosen), a cloth made from the wool of the Angora goat, from khayyara (خيّر in Ar...

@MarkTrapp Amazing! Thank you

I shall promptly forget it again and come back to ask you guys three months later

user2334

Dear Mark from the future, that visual glitch or artifact or weird thing that happens on wooden floors in Minecraft when you look at them at a distance is called a moire pattern.

ahahahahahahahaha

this is so awful

so very awful

this is seriously the worst thing I have heard in a very long time.

The Offspring were already a parody of themselves, but now they are a parody of the parody

this is really really bad guys

like, people are going to hurt themselves to not have to hear this ever again.

Really really bad.

My soul hurts.

Aaah! Badge bomb!

No, drugs improved their music (see every other album)... this is just... no

@Ktash This is the logical conclusion of the road they started walking down with Americana.

user2334

2:03 AM

I not sure the Offspring were ever good. They have a very good nostalgia field about them

@LessPop_MoreFizz I've decided that to end 2012, someone must make a mix of this song and that god-awful Macy Gray cover of Maps, then we will all drink until we forget that those things ever happened.

Q: Is there nudity in WWE '12?

Can somebody explain the vote ratio on this question?

user2334

He's been rapidly asking crap questions all day, and people are mere mortals who may or may not vote by the user when that happens

@YiJiang Asker be trolling. Some people like to up vote anything with a negative score.

user2334

Also, "are there boobies in X game?" is a weak question

2:05 AM

@YiJiang It appears to be +7/-9 for a total of -2.

Ah yes, I see the crap questions in his history

youtube.com/watch?v=5_LxyhCJpsM vs youtube.com/watch?v=FAlZyajmcIM ??

@TimStone Oooh ooh, can we throw in Iggy Pop's Serge Gainesbourg cover album while we're at it?

Because that came out this year too.

@Brant I know what the ratio is. I'm curious about the explanation

@LessPop_MoreFizz The more the merrier. For very disturbing definitions of merry.

2:06 AM

:( :( it makes me sad that Miley Cyrus is a related video for offspring

@LessPop_MoreFizz Whaaaaaaaat

Your favorite band sucks.

@TimStone There is not enough alcohol for the resulting abomination

@Brant Me? My favorite band is not Offspring. I like them, but they are not my favorite

@FAE I was hoping between the alcohol and resulting mental trauma, that the entire year would just be erased.

2:11 AM

Also, are we holding elections?

@Ktash Nay

Didn't think so, but I got a Caucus badge on Gaming lol

For the previous election(s)

What Tim said

Ah, new badge?

@Ktash Two

Got it, that makes sense

user15026

Huh. Pretty sure I never actually participated in the Cooking elections that I got badges for

@AshleyNunn Even if you didn't vote, you still get the bronze one for visiting the election page

user15026

@FAE I got both badges, which was a little weird. But maybe I just forgot about that

@AshleyNunn Ah, hm. I dunno then!

@Lazers The zombies were zapped by the PRNG gods

13 days til Quantum Conundrum!

Mmhmm, yes, interesting game

user15026

3:05 AM

@Fluttershy What's that?

It's from one of the lead developers for Portal

Steam has it at 10% off for pre-order I believe

@YiJiang That they do.

user15026

@Fluttershy That looks ridiculously fun.

Ullallulloo

That reminds me that I finally have the money for that. :)

3:09 AM

@AshleyNunn I am pretty excited. My only concern: It comes out one day before Mario Marathon goes live...

user15026

@Fluttershy That is conflicting for sure

@Fluttershy wait. this has John de Lancie in it? okay. I must own this now.

@agent86 If that's Discord from MLP and Q from Star Trek, yes.

@Fluttershy indeed

user15026

@Fluttershy Whoa. That just made it even more awesome.

3:11 AM

@agent86 He plays professor fitz quadrangle or something like that. >.>

@Fluttershy he can play a couch and I'd still be there.

@agent86 Does that mean you want to sit on him? >.>

@Fluttershy The mad scientist uncle of the protagonist

@YiJiang Yeah, that one.

@Fluttershy I would sit on a couch version of John de Lancie, yes.

there are many versions of John de Lancie that I would interact with.

3:13 AM

Kim Swift, that's her name, the developer that worked on Portal and now works on this game

So I just realized this. With my Humble bundle, I got the limbo soundtrack... but there is no music in limbo

user15026

@Ktash odd.

@Ktash it's a very short soundtrack then, yeah?

Well, it's 25mb of something zipped up for me I guess....

@Ktash Almost no music in Limbo.

Also, the Steam version of Superbrothers come with the soundtrack

So no need to download it separately

3:18 AM

Thanks for the tip :)

6 songs on the soundtrack

Oh, right, the soundtracks for DEFCON and Darwinia finally came through. That Steam support ticket wasn't filed in vain, hmmm

Every fighting game.

The soundtracks are very nice, by the way. Sort of on the short side though. Won't recommend spending $5 for them separately

Also, I need to push that seizure inducing gif off my screen

Does this still work?

Yay! Kittehs!

yeah, no s :)

I'm liking the Bastion soundtrack

Oh yes, it's brilliant.

@YiJiang It wasn't bad. Just disappointing. But I'll avoid spoilerizing

Of course. That said, I don't watch movies nowadays

Weird. Firefox's dictionary doesn't appear to have the word 'movies'

user15026

@YiJiang That is bizarre.

@AshleyNunn I've only hit the coolest of the day? We'll need to fix that

3:39 AM

@AshleyNunn Must be because it's the GB dictionary. It's probably expecting 'films' or 'motion picture' or 'grand cinemographic experience'

user15026

@YiJiang The last one, most likely ;)

user15026

@Ktash Oooh please do :D

Brave is coming out in around two weeks time

Also excited for that one, though I have no idea what it is actually about

Q: What happened to all the zombies

Today I played Minecraft Pocket Edition. I went through 20 nights and no sign of any zombies whatsoever. What happened to them all?

This question doesn't look too bad

...except for it being a repost of

Q: Minecraft pocket edition

So far there the only mobs I've seen in minecraft were zombies and it kind of disappoints me because I like challenge and zombies are way too easy to kill even with a bowl I took on 50 of those things without moving or getting hurt. Why is there only zombies in minecraft pocket edition

minecraft

...which is a repost of

Q: Will there be more mobs in Minecraft Pocket Edition?

I played Minecraft Pocket Edition survival mode for the first time and noticed the only mobs that were there was animals and zombies will Mojang put the other mobs in Minecraft Pocket Edition? It's just not Minecraft without creepers.

minecraft-pocket-edition

not sure why the reposts are closed NC though.

@badp That first one is not a duplicate of the second

The second is a dupe of the third though

The first is asking "why no zombies" whereas the second and third is "why only zombies"

@badp You could correct that grave injustice

@YiJiang yeah, I'm considering doing just that

either that or just destroying the user and all his questions with him

I'd prefer the second option. Let me see if he has made any other useful contribution

Well third question is "when will there be mobs", second question is "why is there no other mobs", first question is "what happened to the mobs that should be there in the first place"

third question's closed OT correctly, second question should be OT too, but the first? I dunno

10:19 AM

There isn't enough information for the first question. What if he just spent 20 nights in a well lit area?

The questions all suck. Some suck slightly less than others, as it happens

Q: Are there any UI for MAME in Ubuntu 12.04?

@YiJiang That doesn't mean it should be closed. I'll go ahead and reopen it in good faith although the guy's probably given up on us
