Q: How high can Minecraft spiders jump?

How high can spiders jump, and can they leap up on to a wall and climb from there? For instance, can a spider jump up to the lip in any of these (O is ground, X is wall): X X XX X XX X XX X X X X X OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO Everyone says you ne...

Also, I finally figured out why SourceMod requires you to pass the number of players to certain functions that take an array.

Since array sizes have to be hardcoded, you have to initialize it to MAXPLAYERS (a constant) and then fill it with values manually.

So... since you'll have a 64 element array, you have to tell it how many elements to actually check.

Q: Can Minecraft spiders turn corners while climbing?

If I have a tall square tower, and a spider is climbing up one side of it, can it continue around to another side while still climbing? Or would it have to start climbing from the bottom again? Similarly, if it were inside the tower and climbing on the inner wall, can it turn an inside corner an...

I need to go home to make my time add up to what my (due early because Monday is a US Holiday) hours show as this week.

Q: What are the lyrics to the song at the beginning of Flipnic: Ultimate Pinball?

Flipnic starts with a brilliant little song sung by two computers, with a digital monkey on screen fishing. Depending on what the monkey catches, the song's ending changes. For example, when the monkey catches three fish holding onto each other, the second voice cuts itself off and says 'OH MY ...

Q: Consequences of accepting unknown substances from strange men?

In Chapter 1 of The Witcher 2, I encountered two people dressed in merchant clothing who asked me to test a potion for them, with promises of great rewards to come in a year or two at Vizima. They were whispering cautiously between themselves and one of them shouted that the gods have no love for...

There's a golden wrench online on the ATF server.

I hate that.

What does that golden wrench mean?

"OH LOOKIE I'M SO SPECIAL I CLICKED ON A BUTTON ON THE RIGHT TIME"

@Powerlord Surely you would have destroyed it for charity.

badp

@Powerlord What is it exactly you had to do to get one anyway?

Powerlord

@ArdaXi No I wouldn't. :D

@badp Craft stuff at the right time

I had two items in the craft window (to turn into a scrap) and was clicking on the craft button when the announcement for one of the golden wrenches went by.

Arda Xi

@Powerlord Tsk.

That must've sucked.

Then again, technically my Unusual Le Party Phantom with green Confetti is rarer, since there are only 8 or so of those in existence.

Also, The Baconing is an actual game coming out.

The third in the Deathspank series.

joystiq.com/2011/05/27/… <-- They explain the lack of DeathSpank in the title.

Also, Hideo Kojima says there'll be something special for the Metal Gear 25th Anniversary next year.

Q: How can I re-spec my abilities in The Witcher 2?

I've begrudged some of the choices I've made in regards to ability choices while progressing through the Witcher 2, and now that I've reached Act 3, I've heard rumors that some sort of "secret quest" will allow me to reassign all my abilities from scratch. Are there any truths to these rumors? I...

Q: Keep Baldarov alive in Warsong for Sega Genesis

This is something that has always bothered me since I was a kid. On the back cover of the game Warsong for the Sega Genesis there is a screen that shows the player having all items and it shows that Baldarov is alive. My question is how is it possible to have him alive at the end of the game, i...
