I'm still at 1-3
btw @RavenDreamer what Runner did have that Runner doesn't is Perfect mode
 
@badp I was so close!
 
How I Met Your Mother is finally on Netflix. My evening is now over.
 
Anybody know which superhero this is
I keep thinking it's Judge Dredd
It's definitely not Deadpool
 
@Retrosaur Dante.
 
Robocop?
You have a link @fbueckert?
 
12:10 AM
@Retrosaur I'm totally joking.
 
Oh. I thought you were serious lol.
 
HAH! "Slide under 50 obstacles"
 
@Retrosaur Of course it's not Dante. Not even a red coat!
 
I haven't even unlocked sliding yet
 
12:11 AM
Oh, Dante from DMC? I thought you were talking about another Dante that somehow wasn't the Dante from DMC and a Dante somewhere else.
 
@Retrosaur What other Dante do you know?
 
@Retrosaur That, apparently. ^^
 
The one from the Divina Commedia
 
My neighbor's name is Dante.
Dante from the Divine Comedy as well.
 
What was that game called?
 
12:12 AM
@badp Dante's Inferno
 
oh duh Da--- yeah that
 
Derpte
 
Wii Mini has been confirmed for the UK.
America's still left out.
Hard to tell if they're being favored or insulted.
 
Land of the midgets.
 
@MBraedley It's been on Netflix for me for years, unless you mean a new season?
 
12:14 AM
@Coronus Only now available in Canada?
 
@MBraedley Oh, I figured, stupidly, that the agreements about streaming rights made sense. Regardless... I love that series. I can't wait for more.
 
user15026
@mbraedley been on Canada Netflix for a bit. I love it.

LMS: Killerbook of a Bounty Killer is your first glimpse into the LMS series. It is a character bible and prologue book that introduces you to Gabriel, the hero of our story, as he personally unravels to his audience the intricacies of his world, set in a time-transcending and parallel universe that is inhabited by a roster of colorful and deadly characters. Join Gabriel in his quest for revenge and the journey he will embark on by traveling through more than 200 pages of history, character art, bios and other forms of pleasure and pain.
 
I stand by what I said.
 
12:18 AM
@AshleyNunn I haven't searched for it in a while. Just noticed it in the new releases. UPDATE FASTER, XBOX!
 
AAAAARGH MISSING THE LAST GOLD
(thanks @RavenDreamer)
 
FAE
The tag for Bit Trip Runner 2 is just ?
 
Anyone know if this level is still available
 
@Retrosaur it is.
 
You know if I can find the soundtrack somewhere? It's not in the official soundtrack for Bit.Trip.Beat

@Retrosaur Huh, I see

Q: Where can I find all the Retro Challenges?

RetrosaurThere is apparently a challenge which involves finding 25 Retro Challenges (and beating them all too!) Which levels have them, and where can I find them (do I need keys to get there?) I've found three so far, one on Windy Interlude, one in Cloud 8 1/2, and one in Cloud Nein, but I can't seem to...

Q: How do these "Key Vaults" work?

RetrosaurI've already reached the level that connects to the Key Vault level, but when I try to go up, it won't let me go through. In other levels, there are these keys, but they are transparent and thus you cannot get it. How do these keys and key vaults work?

0
Q: Can you save up skill points to spend on a later tier?

SternoIn Etrian Odyssey 4, there seem to be three tiers of skills: Novice, Veteran, and Master. I'm not allowed to buy skills in the Veteran tier until level 20, and Master even later than that. I'm trying to plan out my party's builds and would like to know if I can save up skill points during level...

Q: When should I enchant with Muffle instead of Sneak?

TacroyI have a pair of unenchanted boots, assorted gems filled with souls of questionable origin, and a burning desire to go unnoticed (because I get a 30x bonus to sneak attacks I'm shy) I can either put Muffle on my boots, or a bonus to Sneak. Muffle's magnitude is always 100% when the player uses i...

 
I won't deny there are trace amount of pedantry in my answer
I even edited the Wikipedia article to reflect "Runner2"
 
I have a 100% monopoly on Runner2 questions! MUAHHAHAHA! Even your pitiful Boardwalk and Park Place stand no chance against me!
 
@badp And then did you reference your meta answer? That would be awesome.
 
@Retrosaur You mean the song from the video?
 
12:27 AM
@Powerlord Yeah, if you have it, that'd be great!
 
@Retrosaur No worries, I'll see it to it that I answer them.
 
Hey, y'all. Got a question about a question...
 
You know its part of the Portal (or Portal 2) sound track?
 
@badp And then you'll have 100% monopoly on Runner2 answers! Together, we shall defeat Handsome @OrigamiRobot! I will lead you into battle! I will destroy him with my bare hands!
 
12:28 AM
Track 1 from Portal 2 specifically... Science is Fun
 
Beat sounds matter
 
@Powerlord Grazie~
 
The edit on that question, well after any other activity on the thread, asks for detail going beyond the original scope of the question. The detail requested in the edit still has yet to be addressed in that thread. Would anyone have objections to me rolling back the edit and asking a separate question - which is probably what should have been done the first time around?
 
@Iszi No, I think the new edit is fine.
 
12:31 AM
Wait...the asker was the one who changed it
Nevermind, disregard my last sentence that doesn't exist anymore.
 
@Retrosaur Yes, but it asks for a level of detail not originally in-scope of the question. And it came well after the question was already answered and (I presume) the answer was accepted.
 
@Iszi There's nothing wrong with asking for more detail.
 
@OrigamiRobot I think it should have been done as a separate question, though.
 
Why? That would be fragmenting relevant information.
We don't need information on enemy levels in two places.
 
What in the world is going on on the front page?
 
12:38 AM
1-3 hard perfect get! \o/
@YiJiang'sEvilClone I see nothing wrong... now
 
@badp It'll all be in vain once you unlock the abillity to dance. Then you'll try to cram as many dance moves as you can with every spare moment you get.
 
@OrigamiRobot They're two different questions: "Do enemies keep up with your level?" as opposed to "What are the levels of the enemies in each area?"
 
A couple of hours ago. Apparently every Minecraft PE question got re tagged and rolled back
 
@Iszi No, it's "What determines enemy levels?" Since they are set, a good answer will provide what those levels are.
 
12:40 AM
@Retrosaur Is it unlocked retroactively?
 
@badp Once you get to the right level, yes.
 
Does dancing score points?
 
@badp 2k each time.
 
fuck
 
12:41 AM
(Note the former was originally closed as dupe, then later reopened.)
 
@badp not sure if it scales with difficulty, you might want to check that out.
 
Watching Game of Thrones, I say: "Is that Theon or Jon? I can't tell." Fiancee: "That's Robb Stark."
Because this show isn't confusing enough.
 
it just means I'm going to use all the checkpoints now
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Sockpuppet upvoted user. User got just enough rep to get retagging privileges. User proceeds to abuse privilege.
We revert edits.
 
@StrixVaria I can't tell anyone apart either. I just made up names for everyone.
 
12:43 AM
Uh, wow
How did that happen
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Kids, most likely.
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone SOCKPUPPETS SOCK PUPPETS SOCK PUPPETS SOCK PUPPETS FBUECKERT SOCK PUPPETS
 
@Iszi Asking what levels enemies are is within the scope of "what determines enemy levels?" The questions you linked are not the same circumstance.
 
1-4 get
 
Dancing get! Secret level get! Retro challenge get! Beat badp get!
 
12:45 AM
Shaddap
 
He's still got re tagged privs though
 
for now
I GOT THEM EXCLAMATION MARKS. WHAT YOU GOT ON THAT?
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone The serial upvote script will catch him next time it runs.
And then he'll lose it.

@FAE Ditto

If I could build satellites like that in KSP, I'd never stop playing.

12:50 AM
@OrigamiRobot The original Borderlands 2 question is "What factors determine enemy levels?". The correct answer is "For non-DLC missions during Playthrough 1 & 2, enemy levels are set within a certain range per area. For DLCs and Playthrough 2.5 enemies scale roughly to the player's level." You're suggesting a good answer would have done that, plus: "Here's the list of enemy levels per area".
By the same logic, the answer to the general "Can you romance multiple people?" shouldn't have been just "No" - it should have been "No, and here are your points of no return" instead of being split into separate questions.
 
Ooh, re-entry seems to be one of the next things implemented in KSP.
Cue more explosions as people have to figure out how to orient the heat shields.
 
@FAE I"m exactly the same way.
 
@OrigamiRobot See this comment thread.
I think this is possibly missing something. The explanation here says the answers to the original question must solve the user's problem. However, there are still many edge cases where the duplicate question is in-scope of the original but the existing answers to the original do not address the duplicate. This can occur because the original question is asking for a high-level overview of a subject, where the duplicate question is seeking more details within a narrower scope of the same subject. Should these still be considered dupes? — Iszi Feb 13 at 7:36
 
FAE
@Wipqozn I don't know, are you?
 
12:54 AM
"What's that? I just used 3 bullets? BEtter backtrack 20-minutes to restock!"
 
@Wipqozn The OCD packrat mentality means you're also not going to be shooting as much as most people.
 
FAE
@Wipqozn Yeah, I'm really obsessive about searching dead ends and stuff.
 
@FAE Bacon
 
@fbueckert I don't.
 
Hey
At least fake walls are now a thing of the past
 
12:55 AM
@Wipqozn Exactly.
 
If there is a melee option in a game, you can rest assure I'll use that as much as possible to avoid wasting bullets.
 
So more supplies will pile up.
 
@Wipqozn +90 hp? Gotta find some medkits or pills.
 
Remember when we had to hug ALL the walls?
 
If I ever take damage doing that though, I will of course reload.
 
12:56 AM
@Retrosaur It's a portal 2 song. One of the "Songs to Test by" that Valve released for free, I believe.
 
@Wipqozn Ditto.
 
@Wipqozn I remember playing Fallout 3 and saving all the special guns
And then I had to reformat my computer, and I lost all my save files.
@RavenDreamer @Powerlord answered it a while back.
 
@Iszi I don't know what you want me to say. You asked for opinions, I'm the only one that gave you one. Regardless of whether or not it should be a new question, I don't think you should roll back another user's post just to ask it yourself.
 
Silly RavenDreamer
I even told him which track it was!
 
12:57 AM
The only time I don't save ammo is when it's effectively unlimited, or you can't transport the weapon.
 
Which wasn't hard since it was track #1
 
@Powerlord I even used the reply button !!!!11!!one!!eleven1!
 
FAE
@badp So how are you liking Runner2, anyway? I seem to recall Runner 1 was your least favorite, as it was mine.

Q: How does "dancing" work?

RetrosaurHow many points does one get when you "dance"? How many seconds does this last? I'd like to know so I can cram as many of these into open parts so I can get more points. Do points received from dancing also play into difficulty level? Does playing on Just Right give less points than playing on ...

 
@FAE The fact it's not a Bit Trip game is helping
 
12:58 AM
@FAE DONT BOTHER HIM HE'S TOO BUSY BEING A SCORE WHORE
 
Whee! Downloading Runner 2.
 
FAE
@badp In what regard exactly?
Like, is there no rhythm/music aspect to the gameplay?
 
@FAE Different aesthetic, probably.
I don't know if Runner was my favorite, but it was definitely the one I was closest to perfect-ing all the levels on.
 
Basically to get a Runner 1 like experience in Runner2 you have to play at Rather Hard while skipping the checkpoint - do that twice - then ragequit whenever you hit an obstacle on the second try
 
FAE
@RavenDreamer I wasn't so fond of the no checkpoints aspect of that one
 
1:00 AM
@FAE Compared to the other bit.trips where you simply lost?
 
@RavenDreamer You just went down a mode eventually
 
It is on its own in terms of pacing, I'll grant that.
 
@RavenDreamer bit.trip beat still gave you warnings (danger) before you lost.
 
@Retrosaur The levels were also 10x as long!
 
...so basically Runner2 has 1. no retro mode you need to perfect in one try (at least at the start; dunno if that comes back later in the game; I sure as hell hope not) 2. checkpoints 3. easier difficulty modes
 
1:01 AM
They were different games. You'll not get an argument about that from me!
 
@RavenDreamer 1-11 Odysseus. Oh, how I still have nightmares.
 
@OrigamiRobot See, that's why I was asking in the first place - if you'd focused on that argument to start, we'd have been on the same page the whole time. Actually, I was originally hoping to find the OP in here to ask their permission first. Unfortunately, I got no such luck.
 
@Retrosaur Just, Odyssey, I think.
 
@badp And runner2 has dancing, global Leaderboards, skins, and other characters
I still wish they had hats like TF2
 
Guess it's time to post a bounty - haven't done that in awhile anyway, I think.
 
1:01 AM
@Retrosaur None of that really matters :P
 
@badp IT'S ALL ABOUT THE HATS I KNEW IT
 
Okay, finished downloading. Let's start it up.
 
@Iszi GalacticNinja doesn't spend much time here.
 
@fbueckert For some reason I always associated GalacticNinja with Pixel/Kalina
 
also, Runner 2 has this.
 
FAE
1:02 AM
@badp o_O
 
@Iszi Why bother with that argument when I disagree with it's premise?
 
@FAE CommanderVideoGirl makes me happy Bit.Trip is a 2D only game now
 
FAE
@badp That's... weird.
 
@badp So did Bit Trip Runner, but she was unplayable
 
@FAE Stylized!
 
1:05 AM
@RavenDreamer Perky!
 
@Retrosaur She had a cameo in the credits.
 
@RavenDreamer I know that. :3
 
Okay. Game on. Hold my calls.
 
@RavenDreamer What if it's free pizza?
 
FAE
@RavenDreamer "Let's throw boobs and a bow on it and color it pink, that makes it a girl!" just feels kind of weird to me.
 
1:06 AM
@FAE Honestly pink and bow was what made CommanderVideoGirl CommanderVideoGirl
 
@FAE Tell that to Bandage Girl
 
@FAE Did you see the original Commander Video sketch for runner 2?
 
Dr. BandageBoy incoming!
 
@FAE She's also a bit more feminine in the movements but a screenshot won't tell you that obviously
 
1:08 AM
@RavenDreamer Basically, an enderman
 
@badp Geordi LaFenderman
Jordi?
Black blind guy from TNG
 
OH MY GOD THE THIRD GOLD IN 1-5
 
FAE
There's a whole bunch of stuff here about gendered coding (not coding as in coding a game but codes of behavior/presentation) and Western society's interpretation of femininity etc. but I don't feel like getting into it right now.
 
@badp I KNOW RIGHT
Hey guise
Because of this
 
FAE
@RavenDreamer Geordi
 
1:11 AM
@Retrosaur btw how'd you get Runner 2 without Runner?
 
You gave me it....
I still have an extra gift copy.
 
ah.
 
user15026
@FAE I don't know....how else are you going to gender characters?
 
*sigh* The other day I spent a hour debugging HTML Purify configuration only to realize that the configuration I was looking for is suppose to be HTML.Allowed not HTML.allowed
 
Honestly @FAE I thought you'd find more offense with the mono-boob-block than the pink and the bow
 
user15026
1:13 AM
I mean I get norms and genderization and stereotyping, but I fail to see how every depiction of females in this format is inherently bad
 
FAE
@AshleyNunn I'd possibly be willing to have this discussion at another time, but not now, as stated.
 
It is 2am here
 
user15026
Fair enough. It was more of a general observation than anything.
 
Man, how long until Badp's not on the top of my friendslist leaderboard for every single level? I'm guessing... never.
 
@badp Take your turn before you turn in.
 
1:14 AM
Is the high score tracked per difficulty level?
 
@RavenDreamer 1-5
 
FAE
@badp Indeed, and I'm in the middle of attempting to finish an assignment for something.
 
@RavenDreamer no, but the bulk of a high score is given to you by getting a perfect+
 
@badp Pretty much.
 
1:15 AM
A "simple" perfect without getting a bullseye aat Hard is worth less than a perfect+ with bullseye at Easy
 
Surprising number of people have been prosecuted for stuff they say on social networking sites
 
@RavenDreamer Do I show up on your leaderboards?
 
@Retrosaur You're not my friend
2
So... no.
 
@RavenDreamer That makes me incredibly sad to hear. :C
 
On steam.
Oh, whoa. Unlock levels with gold?
 
1:17 AM
@fbueckert I can't affect the cult leader
 
@badp Hammer the fearmonger if you can.
 
@fbueckert There.
Also, you're slightly dead.
 
user15026
@badp Only slightly?
 
@badp That's not the fearmonger.
 
> Mistake uses Flame Blast. Mistake solidly hits the second fearmonger, dealing 7 fire damage. The second fearmonger is now gravely wounded. Mistake critically hits the harrowing eye, dealing 7 fire damage. The harrowing eye is now wounded and burning.
 
1:19 AM
@RavenDreamer It's as bad as micropayment models! Just kidding.
 
> Mistake uses Bolt of Flame. Mistake's Bolt of Flame fails to affect the cult leader.
 
At any rate, @RavenDreamer, apparently at some point you unlock dancing. Dancing gives you 2k per move.
@fbueckert That was the previous turn. I said "I can't affect the cult leader" after I failed to affect the cult leader.
 
Oh. Nevermind.
 
@badp That makes me pound my head against a wall and scream "WHY SWEET SPODE WHY"
 
@RavenDreamer So yeah, my scores are totally defeatable and honestly my bar for now is "hard perfect"
 
1:21 AM
I HAVE GOOD NEWS
 
I might have to relax it

Q: What are Retro levels?

Raven DreamerI was running along in 1-3 when I missed a jump, and suddenly things went all funky. Well, funkier: How did I trigger this new, retro-themed level? How are they different from regular levels? And why did I get a counter saying 1/25 Congratulations when I beat it?

Mostly bacon.
 
@AshleyNunn I think you just inadvertently called @fbueckert attractive. =P

I've never seen it work well
Also
WHY MUST THE TREES HAVE THESE FACES
WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOUR FACE, TREE?
 
@badp To trip you up a bit.
 
@badp Because anthropomorphism is fun and creepy!

@YiJiang'sEvilClone The faces on the bombs are perfectly okay.
 
@badp I don't think they would be if they adopted the same expression as the trees
