@FEichinger We need two more people to nominate if there have to be primaries. If you assume that I am number 10, we still need one more. Do you plan on entering your self later on too?

FEichinger

@Arperum I said "looks like".

user15026

I suspect, since we still have 7 days, we will get more people

user15026

THIS IS ONLY THE BEGINNING

Tim Stone

People already had to wait five days, I can't believe anyone could wait a second longer.

GnomeSlice

Effing Dead is scary. =[

Wipqozn

11:01 PM

I'm planning to enter, I'm just working on my nomination.

Thus far my nomination speech consists of:

FEichinger

@Arperum Also, we now have 10.

Wipqozn

Arperum

@Wipqozn I'm mentally working on mine.

Wipqozn

I'm not drawing a blank at all!

Rune Factory 4 got their European release date cancelled. :(

spugsley

11:02 PM

@Wipqozn I can finish it for you. "I'm also the worst. And because most of these other people running are the best you should vote for me so that we can have balance. Balance is good."

Wipqozn

@spugsley That's probably the nicest thing you have ever said to me.

user15026

@spugsley And it is even nicely under the character limit!

Wipqozn

Being concise in writing is very important!

spugsley

@Wipqozn I'm on many many meds so don't get used to it

spugsley

@Wipqozn Nope. Bullshit in writing is important. That's how I got my English degree

@GnomeSlice could you tell me if you encountered the same probs?

Arperum

@GnomeSlice We placed multiple hours of energy of black holes, creating some kind of super black/pink hole in the process.

And after all that we placed a couple turrets and suddenly everything went to hell.

Haidro

GnomeSlice

@Wandang Irrelevant, but yes. There's lots of good internet in Canada. I'm just rural.

Wandang

@Haidro just a reminder that we talked to you

GnomeSlice

@Haidro "Ping"

Haidro

11:15 PM

Yea, but the sound, what is it?

GnomeSlice

It's just a sound.

Wandang

you can ping by writing @ and a username

Haidro

Ah lol

Yes I know how to ping (:

Wandang

its like rubber that is letting lose of

@Wandang The old sound was better

Arperum

11:15 PM

@gnome the bulletphysics are murderous on your CPU if there are hundreds of black holes around.

Haidro

We have a different one at SO so it was a bit frightening to hear

Wandang

@GnomeSlice do you like rob ford? :D

Krazer

GnomeSlice

@Arperum Huh, I've never had an issue.

Wandang

@FAE never heard it :(

GnomeSlice

11:16 PM

@Wandang I don't know much about that to be honest, I don't follow the news. He looks like a giant sweaty baby, though.

@Haidro SO is the only one with a unique sound.

The rest all sound like this.

Wandang

@GnomeSlice wow. that was big news. thought you must have catched that as a canadian

Arperum

@GnomeSlice Never had two players place 200-300 black holes each.

Arperum

11:18 PM

@GnomeSlice We just wanted to test it. The test ended in "It's a single-core game, and one of my CPU-cores looks like he wants to stab me in the face for being overloaded".

Wandang

GnomeSlice

@Wandang bahahahaha

Wipqozn

@spugsley That reminds me, I need to actually visit more of my own province.

Arperum

@GnomeSlice The super black hole was a nice easter egg though. You even got a special message for it. And it threw bullets WAY off course. Like half a zoomed out screen away.

Can somebody star that so people see it?

spugsley

11:21 PM

I will get permission with my cuteness

Arperum

@GnomeSlice Yea. we basically left the game running for a couple hours, and then went in and clicked black holes like mad. One of these clicking sessions we decided to not move at all. That resulted in a large spread of black holes around us, and one super black hole.

spugsley

@Wipqozn :o

OrigamiRobot

@spugsley Which old guy are you going to put the moves on?

GnomeSlice

@Arperum Huh, weird.

Wipqozn

Poffertjes

Poffertjes () are a traditional Dutch batter treat. Resembling small, fluffy pancakes, they are made with yeast and buckwheat flour. Unlike American pancakes, they have a light, spongy texture. Typically, poffertjes are served with powdered sugar and butter, and sometimes syrup. Mainly in the colder seasons, temporary stands selling poffertjes are quite popular, and sell portions containing one or two dozen of them. Usually the cook prepares them freshly for the customer. They are sold on a small cardboard (sometimes plastic) plate and come with a small disposable fork the size of a pas...

StrixVaria

I really want to try authentic poutine.

Arperum

StrixVaria

I've had a homemade attempt that used mozzarella cheese instead of cheese curds.

Fluttershy

@StrixVaria Me too. I don't even think I like cheese curds, but I still want to try.

@StrixVaria Same deal as everybody else: if you can make it here, I can put you up for a few days.

rolfl

@Arperum agree with the base test ... and, in an unfortunate event in high-school, I did end up taking a face-full of cow (I was not running fast enough).
