Isn't Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them already a book?

fredley

@PrivatePansy Prolly

Private Pansy

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is a 2001 book written by British author J. K. Rowling about the magical creatures in the Harry Potter universe. It purports to be Harry Potter's copy of the textbook of the same name mentioned in Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, the first novel of the Harry Potter series. In a 2001 interview with publisher Scholastic, Rowling stated that she chose the subject of magical creatures because it was a fun topic for which she had already developed a lot of information in earlier books. Rowling's name does not appear on the cover of the book, t...

It is indeed

Michael Dunfield

@PrivatePansy I have that book.

It's actually pretty entertaining.

Grace Note

2:24 PM

@OrigamiRobot Because changing the order was an intentional choice behind the redesign.

OrigamiRobot

Why?

Ben Brocka

@PrivatePansy Did not read that title right at first glance

OrigamiRobot

@GnomeSlice you complain about people complaining a lot.

Ben Brocka

I'm so tired of you people complaining about people complaining about people complaining a lot

Blem

@fredley She clearly needs more money

badp

2:26 PM

@GraceNote there was a redesign?

SaintWacko

@fredley Actually, that sounds like it could be really cool

Private Pansy

@BenBrocka Did you, perchance, add an extra r to one of the words in the title?

fredley

@SaintWacko Shut up, praise is not an appropriate response to anything.

Grace Note

@badp Duplicate was added as a separate flag type from the rest of the closures, and we rearranged the order of the options.

Michael Dunfield

@PrivatePansy I'd read that.

Grace Note

2:27 PM

The latter point is to better set a higher arkee (wherein arkee is basically another word for "bar") of paying attention for layman flaggers so that the ones that it's obvious to tell when it isn't are listed first.

kalina

@fredley so much for not wanting to return to doing more Harry Potter

Ben Brocka

Microsoft owns "xbone.com"

kalina

I guess her attempt to move into adult literature failed and she wanted to go back to randomly arranging words to form millions of dollars

fbueckert

@BenBrocka inb4 they try to take your parody account.

Grace Note

Basically, spam/offensive are very obvious flags as to when they do or do not apply - putting them first means they get applied when directly appropriate and thus people don't go for a less accurate but still applicable flag reason first.

Arperum

Private Pansy

@GraceNote ... slime excrement?

Do slimes even have digestive systems?

I thought they just... dissolve everything

kalina

what are you doing playing with slime excrement?

OrigamiRobot

2:45 PM

Slime excrement is just more slime. That's how slimes grow. They just fill up with their own poop.

Grace Note

In a Ranch, creatures you put there will produce any of the following over the course of time, regardless of what they are:
- More of their kind
- Poo
- Eggs
- Milk
- Bones
- Creatures of an entirely different kind

Blem

@GraceNote Doesn't that depend on how old the watermelon is?

fbueckert

Ski curling. A rainbow ski train. Skis with rocket boosters. Because why not?

Grace Note

Rotting actually doesn't affect weight, only nutritional value.

Blem

@MichaelDunfield I don't hate either of them, just like making fun of them :)

Ben Brocka

2:47 PM

@OrigamiRobot Just like dogs

Grace Note

In a 3 year time span after which I revisited my Ranch, I managed to find 12 bottles of slime milk, 21 slime eggs (of which three I made into cheese), 4.5 stone worth of poo, 9 remains of skeletal slimes, about thirty new slimes, a dog, a hermit crab, and two clowns.

By comparison a normal watermelon weighs 5 stone.

Kevin van der Velden

This game sounds about as insane as dwarf fortress, in other words, I need to play this xp

Grace Note

2:53 PM

@KevinvanderVelden There's a fair amount of liberty and emphasis on doing things that are not beating the snot out of other monsters. You can run a farm, play instruments, deliver cargo, craft goods, and all sorts of other things, all of which are equally capable of contributing to your experience and character level.

@KevinvanderVelden He's asking about a different game.

Michael Dunfield

@KevinvanderVelden I don't think you noticed what I was replying to, but thanks. :P
