@badp - What's Bit Trip about?

(Moved the convo here, as it's more appropriate.)

Mana

@Moshe That is a very, very good question.

Bit Trip's plot is a complete mind screw.

badp

@Moshe It's a series of six retro-looking-and-feeling games with a mind fuck plot.

Moshe

Oh, ok.

Mana

But the games themselves are rhythm 8-bit stuff.

badp

Well, that's because the plot is only explained by cryptic cutscenes.

Mana

21:10

HI BADP.

badp

HI MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANA.

Moshe

Is @IvoFlipse still looking for a designer?

Mana

Badp, are you a bad person? Is that why there's hints of Bad in your name?

@Moshe Pretty sure he is, maaaaaaan. Drop a word in the Gaming Blog Editors Room.

badp

@Mana I am a bad person when I write legal disclaimers, which may or may not be legal and may or may not actually disclaim stuff.

Moshe

@Mana Link?

badp

21:12

They are, however, meaningless, except when they're not.

Mana

@Moshe Edited.

@badp I...see?

Ivo Flipse

@Moshe always :)

badp

Then again I'm not a lawyer, unless I am and nobody told me, in which case I'll use my newfound lawyer powers to sue a number of people, included and not limited to you, your manager (if any), your house (which if I cannot sue I may or may not burn down, optionally but not necessarily with patent pending combustible lemons) and/or ArdaXi, no less than three (3) times.

@Mana I see you see, except you don't, but I can still see your not seeing so it's cool, except it's not.

Somebody, including but not limited to you, your lemons, your favourite undead warrior mermaid or your cat, help me out of this. Or not.

Moshe

@badp I will, except I wont.. ... .. .. . . ?

badp

@Moshe Let me thank you or not.

Moshe

21:17

@badp You ((levelOfWelcomeness > THRESHOLD) ? are : are not ) welcome.

Mana

I'm going to go punch my face in and also consider whether or not I should close my own question as a duplicate. Again.

Moshe

Bam!

Mana

brb

badp

I see your ternary operators, which may or may not be the cancer that is killing /b/

Mana

Thank goodness. /b/ could use a little death.

badp

21:19

@Mana You mean a little of this?

►

Moshe

Did y'all know that in Germany, they use 8 to mean "acht" in textspeak, like English speakers use it to mean "ate"?

Mana

Why did I know that joke was coming?

badp

@Mana My jokes are limited, and not including.

At any rate it's time to run the Portal 2 OST through Audiosurf.

Moshe

@badp OST?

badp

original sound track

It's free! Link in the star list

Mana

21:22

Not anymore, since you jerks didn't vote it up.

badp

...somewhere

Mana

Now you have to click on the full star list to see it. AND I DON'T HAVE STARS.

badp

@Mana I did star it, bud.

Mana

oh cool

badp

Got it moshe?

Moshe

21:23

Yep, thanks

Mana

thanks bro

badp

You're welcome.

Mana

I enjoyed my 30 seconds of fame there.

badp

I removed a crap star and a star for your message popped up!

Moshe

Ok, work to do.

Tschüss

Arda Xi

21:24

@Mana I have a permanent spot.

Powerlord

@badp ....crap star?

Are you saying that you're intentionally going against the will of the Gaming community members? Or at least those that visit The Bridge?

badp

When non-espresso coffee is involved, fuck yes.

Brant

Awk-waaaard!

Mana

@Powerlord Are you implying this is something @badp doesn't do all the time?

Powerlord

@Mana No, but I was implying it's something moderators shouldn't be doing.

Mana

21:28

@Powerlord I was kidding, lighten up :( But I agree, mods shouldn't be doing it.

Arda Xi

@Powerlord Are you implying that is something @badp doesn't do all the time?

Mana

glares @badp

I HATE YOU GO AWAY

@badp come back I miss you

Brant

who's doing what now?

badp

@Mana <3

Arda Xi

@Brant Nothing new.

Mana

21:29

<3333333333

Powerlord

@Brant Mods (and room owners) can cancel stars.

Mana

Did badp just kick himself? So confused :(

badp

No worries, I just dead ringed a bit.

Mana

ah

Powerlord

@badp You need a lot more practice to make it believable. ;)

badp

21:32

Dead ringer is the only cloak I can use.

Powerlord

That reminds me, I was kinda mad yesterday when someone spoiled my killing streak on a Spy that people are on my server were like "OMG, he's like the best Spy EVAR!!!!11111" I was one kill away from a domination on him. As Sniper.

(<3 Jarate)

badp

And I don't think I use it too badly. Certainly some times I fumble with it, but thanks to all-talk I can hear people going "dead ringer" on chat pretty easily. And I kinda love it, after I get my toys sapped for the umpteenth time.

Especially satisfying when the enemy sentry jumps, so the engie needs a teleporter to get back to his nest. And he can't really D that tp.

And I can die as much* as I want...

Powerlord

One of the keys to dead ringering is to disguise as your own team out the gate. A lot of people STILL don't realize that the corpse changes if you disguise as your own team.

badp

@Powerlord I know, I do that all the time.

Thanks for mentioning

However I should let the enemy deal a bit more damage before I flip the cloak on

They can buy getting a lucky shot once...

Powerlord

@badp I try to get stickybombed at the gate.

Or headshot.

Since neither actually kills you, but is very convincing.

badp

21:35

Nah, I just go with the thing always open around

then remove it to sap, and walk away, change disguise and sap again.

Powerlord

This is on like Payload or attack/defend cp maps, btw.

badp

Useless? Perhaps, but more effective than I can get if I try and battle the engies :P

Um, how's 5cp different?

Powerlord

I've found that disguising as an Engineer with the wrench out confuses people when you're sapping stuff.. :D

@badp Well, 5cp doesn't have gates for one.

So, my usual tactic of "get stickied or headshot" fails.

I like to disguise as a friendly Engineer or Sniper at the start of 5cp... particularly if I look like I'm an Engineer trying to sneak behind them to build.

Sniper is more believable if your teammates are using The Huntsman.

badp

Yeah, I usually do that or soldier.

Powerlord

Medic is a useless disguise at round start, but may be useful if you're behind the enemies.

If I hear someone call medic while disguised as an enemy medic, I'll make a beeline straight for them.

badp

21:40

Meh, it only has to last till the next ammo box.

Powerlord

The L'Etranger may sound useless at first, but it helps if you're a DR Spy, since it recharges your cloak 15% each shot that connects. :D

Really great if you're on fire.

Provided the Pyro isn't right next to you to relight you that is.

Makes me <3 Flaregun Pyros

(unless they manage to hit me with a second shot)

Anyway, closing time... one last call for... wait, no alcohol here.

badp

@Powerlord That's annoying, true.

Try Overgrowth in Audiosurf. For some reason, it's super intense.

97k points in ninja pro intense

In other news, Rattman == Eminem, based on the version of the Rattman's den bg music in the OST

Moshe

22:00

Where's the gaming blog editor's room? I can't find a link.

Ah, well @IvoFlipse - Please ping me in a coupla days to remind me.

badp

22:14

Wow, you need tough ears for Your Friendly Faith Plate

badp

22:29

So yeah, that is probably CD 1 of 3

The last "song" in that CD is about the thermal discouragement beam, also known as lazers.

so it doesn't even reach half game.

Q: Can NPCs really die?

I'm in the middle of a Blood Moon night and fighting horde of monsters. In a Blood Moon wiki's page, it is written that: This can put the player's home and NPCs in peril. In fact I see that zombies and eyes attack NPCs and do some damage. But do NPCs can really die if I do not defend them...
