@Fluttershy No comment at this time

GnomeSlice

@BenBrocka Did you see my command about Twitter.

You have to do it.

Ben Brocka

@GnomeSlice One parody account is enough for now

GnomeSlice

@BenBrocka You're wrong.

Wipqozn

The best part of Sonic CD was the opening

►

Ben Brocka

@Wipqozn I had forgotten about that. I was terrible at that game

And I wasn't the best at Sonic 2 to begin with (surviving to the Hilltop zone was cause for celebration)

Mostly because of the music

GnomeSlice

7:09 PM

This is the best Sonic game ever

FAE

@BenBrocka I never beat Sonic 3 because of the Carnival Night Zone

Wipqozn

I've never beat any Sonic game.

I should do the one day.

Powerlord

Well, that meeting was unexpectedly short.

Q: Simcity 2013, does "Demand" ever go away

Like for instance you have a decent city going and all your basics up and you've filled the map. Does the Residential/Commercial/Industrial demands ever "even out" and stop going up? or will they always eventually max out assuming your city is "self sustaining". Thanks.

Q: How to split an army in Rome 2 Total war

I got Rome 2 today and am playing the prologue. So far I am quite satisfied by the game, but something seems to be bothering me or simply doesn't work. In older TW games you could simply build units which you could manoeuvre around without a general (a "general" would be appointed to one of the u...

@GnomeSlice Sonic Rain Boom?

Powerlord

7:12 PM

Then again, I was going to ask the other developer about our workflow and permissions, but the other dev wasn't here.

GnomeSlice

@fredley What? No.

FAE

@fredley ...ahaha

fredley

@GnomeSlice Don't pretend you don't know what that is

GnomeSlice

@FAE That's the best place!

Q: I never made it past Carnival Night Zone

Ever since Sonic 3 came out, I never made it past Carnival Night Zone. I'm not sure which act, but I always got trapped at some point and would have to reset the game. I don't think it was a glitch, I just got stuck at some point. It happened back in the day on the Genesis console and even now wh...

GnomeSlice

7:13 PM

@fredley I have no idea what it is, to be honest.

Powerlord

@FAE Pressing up and down to move the barrel.

Sonic 3 was good up until that point, because most people (me included) assumed you had to jump up and down on it.

GnomeSlice

@FAE Oh, I remember that.

FAE

@Powerlord I know, I'm the one who answered that question, just saying, I didn't figure that out til much later.

Powerlord

btw, the longest Sonic game is if you played a Sonic 3 & Knuckles linked game.

GnomeSlice

@Powerlord That's the way I always played it.

I don't think I ever finished a Sonic game either, actually.

Powerlord

7:15 PM

Mainly because every stage in Sonic 3 and Sonic & Knuckles is large. And you have 24 Acts between the two games, each with a boss

GnomeSlice

I mean out of the Genesis games.

fredley

►

Powerlord

er... 25 acts

I forgot about Doomsday Zone

GnomeSlice

@fredley I think you might have replied to the wrong person with whatever that is.

fredley

@GnomeSlice Watch it, and be enlightened

Powerlord

7:16 PM

Not only that, but you have to collect 14 emeralds to get to Doomsday Zone. :O

GnomeSlice

@fredley Uh, yeah, this isn't really my thing.

fredley

@GnomeSlice I said watch it

GnomeSlice

@fredley I watched it for maybe 20 seconds.

fredley

@GnomeSlice NOT ENOUGH

FAE

@Powerlord I assumed the same and the few times I did get through, it was close enough to the 10 minute timer that I ran out of time before finishing the level. :(

GnomeSlice

7:17 PM

Gotta love the bad cloud tiling.

Powerlord

~Mr. Bad's got it good, but this ain't his neighborhood, he's taking over... no, no.~

Why is that lyric only in the end credits version of Sonic Boom? :(

GnomeSlice

This game is the best.

beautiful

Ben Brocka

@FAE I got stuck there a couple times but I got past it.

FAE

@BenBrocka I don't think I ever finished a Sonic game anyway. I don't finish most games, actually.

Ben Brocka

I finished 3 without emeralds and 3D Blast with cheats (level skip)

Wipqozn

7:21 PM

Whoa, guys. whoa. My mother was watching TV, and the character was all liek "YOU WANT TO KNOW WHO THE FATHER IS" and I was all like "BRAD" and then it was totally Brad.

I think this means I'm psychic.

fredley

Wipqozn

@GnomeSlice think of a number between 1 and 10, but don't tell me what it is.

GnomeSlice

@Wipqozn Okay

Wipqozn

@GnomeSlice Your number is 4.

GnomeSlice

@Wipqozn No, sorry.

fredley

7:21 PM

@Wipqozn No, obviously it was 7

GnomeSlice

@fredley o.o

Wipqozn

@GnomeSlice No, you're wrong. It's 4.

GnomeSlice

how did you

I guess everyone picks 7

fredley

It's always 7. Everyone always picks 7

Shotgun Ninja

I picked 3, nerds

GnomeSlice

7:22 PM

@fredley Yeah...

Wipqozn

@fredley That just proves it's 4.

fredley

@Wipqozn You're 4

Wipqozn

@ShotgunNinja The first odd prime number.

Ben Brocka

Your FACE is an odd prime number

fredley

@Wipqozn Like 91: the first non-obvious prime number

Ben Brocka

7:22 PM

In bed

GnomeSlice

@BenBrocka Aren't they all odd except for 2

Wipqozn

@GnomeSlice Yes.

2 is the only even prime number. It's special.

fredley

Using 91 to prove wrong things about prime numbers to naive mathematicians is fun

GnomeSlice

Hooray I got a math question right

Did you know I used to think I wanted to be a mathematician in highschool.

fredley

@Wipqozn 2 is the only prime number divisible by 2, 3 is the only prime number divisible by 3, etc.

GnomeSlice

7:23 PM

Because my math grades were like perfect

Then I got dumb I guess

Wipqozn

@GnomeSlice Math was my focus of study until I switched over to Computer Science.

Math is fun.

OrigamiRobot

I am a fan of math.

GnomeSlice

Math sucks a lot.

fredley

I enjoyed maths until I failed a degree in it

Wipqozn

@GnomeSlice You're just jealous because Math nerds get all the ladies.

2

fredley

7:26 PM

Protip: Don't do a maths degree

GnomeSlice

@fredley Basically this. I enjoyed math until it got hard.

Which was about Grade 12.

fredley

@GnomeSlice I enjoyed math until I stopped caring.

GnomeSlice

@Wipqozn That must be why I don't have any ladies.

Thank you.

Thank you for this helpful contribution to my life.

fredley

Yes, @GnomeSlice. Solve maths problems to solve your lady problem.

Shotgun Ninja

I have but one lady, whom I love very much. I'm also pursuing a math minor.

Wipqozn

7:27 PM

@GnomeSlice At least you have @Mana!

fredley

@ShotgunNinja Sick pervert.

GnomeSlice

fredley

@kalina

@fredley I saw that, cars are apparently melting.

fredley

@GnomeSlice Yes

They're actually erecting shades

GnomeSlice

7:31 PM

22 hours ago, by GnomeSlice

Reflections from London skyscraper are melting parked cars

@fredley Wow, that sounds like a good way to ruin the look of the building.

Maybe they should have thought of that before they built it.

fredley

@GnomeSlice Yeah

If I owned a business around there I'd be putting up solar panels

GnomeSlice

@fredley Oh that's a good idea!

Yeah. Although the screens and stuff.

hey, does that youtube video shorten itself to 1 second for anyone else?

It starts at 4:10 and then changes to a length of 0:01

and ends

user15026

@Wipqozn I know I picked my SOs on their ability to do math and fix my computer ;)

Ben Brocka

Wrench usually works

Powerlord

Hmm... what are the teams in Half-Life 2: Deathmatch's team mode called? Combine and Rebel?

Ben Brocka

7:40 PM

@Powerlord sounds about right....been ages since I played that though

GnomeSlice

@Powerlord Red and Blue?

fredley

Something fun I found on my travels:

user15026

7:43 PM

@Fluttershy :( :( :( :( :( :( :(

GnomeSlice

@Fluttershy Must be all that anal probing

sorry

also shit

I seem to have lost my timesheet...

They emailed it to me like two days ago

Fluttershy

@GnomeSlice >:(

GnomeSlice

@Fluttershy =[

fuck where is it

Godammit

I cant' waste a lot of time looking for this

Fluttershy

Guess you shouldn't have been so focused on getting a probing joke in.

Mana

@GnomeSlice omg isn't this the thing you were showing off in Grade 11 Comp Sci?

GnomeSlice

7:46 PM

@Mana I don't think I would want to show that off to anyone

Mana

at the beginning of the year, I remember you were showing me a bunch of games that you made in GM

Sterno

There's always time for probing jokes.

2

GnomeSlice

@Mana Oh God did I show you them

That's hilarious

You probably thought I was retarded

They're so bad

@Mana sandbox.yoyogames.com/users/GnomeSlice

Ben Brocka

Perhaps you should have probed the matter deeper

GnomeSlice

Also @Mana did you see the link I sent you on facebook and twitter and gchat and email

okay just facebook and gchat

Powerlord

7:50 PM

The problem with the names red and blue for HL2DM is that Valve keeps switching which team is red and which is blue between games.

Yuki

So I learned that 50 Shades of Grey is getting a movie. Am I the only one who thinks that that is not a good idea?

Powerlord

Blue is team 2 in HL2:DM, DoD:S, L4D, and L4D2. Blue is team 3 in CS:S, TF2, and CS:GO.

At all?

Holy shit

@Yuki It's a Brillant idea!

GnomeSlice

7:52 PM

@Yuki There's lots of porn out there already.

What's the point of a porn film without actual ...stuff. Because I bet they aren't going to show anything.

also where did that star come from

OrigamiRobot

@Yuki I had to read Shades of Gray in like 5th grade.

GnomeSlice

@OrigamiRobot wow

Yuki

@GnomeSlice Well, I was assuming that they meant "Major Motion Picture" when they said "film".

GnomeSlice

@Yuki Yeah, which is why it seems strange.

I haven't read it and I know nothing of it, so I could be wrong.

OrigamiRobot

Maybe 4th

Point is, it was boring.

GnomeSlice

7:55 PM

fuck

I give up

fredley

@Fluttershy Why are you sore?

GnomeSlice

@fredley Probing

ThiefMaster

@OrigamiRobot Sounds almost as bad as having to read twilight in school

OrigamiRobot

I don't even remember what it was about. Just that it was boring.

Q: Connection to capitol without port

I have a capitol that doesn't have an exit to the sea but it is connected to another city with a harbor. Other cities are blocked by a non-friendly city state (connected via road that passes through that city) but there is one with a harbor. Should I have a connection to other group of cities be...
