Kiev is in Ukraine. I thought it was in Russia, so I was confused.

I know what's going on in the Ukraine.

@JasonSperske ask questions about problems you encounter while playing games. — Colin D 30 secs ago

This is really not the way it actually works.

Ben Brocka

@Wipqozn they want some of that account selling money

RedRiderX

@Frank Ah okay

@RedRiderX It's pretty messy.

Frank

Anyways, I have to go help move stuff for a friend! Back in a while!

@AshleyNunn It seems like the politics that give rise to these conflicts always are.

Blem

@Wipqozn sounds fair, it is way lower than people selling the service and still high enough that most people won't be doing it all the time

Best Humble Bundle ever?

RedRiderX

@StrixVaria I know I'm stuck on it

Ben Brocka

@StrixVaria It had several games I was thinking about getting but didn't

Fluttershy

@StrixVaria I think it's one of the best ones I've seen.

Just bought it despite already owning Guacamelee and Antichamber.

Ben Brocka

Though Guacamelee has major stutter issues for me. I can't really play it with vsync on or off

badp

I have all games above average but beat it anyway

Hopefully the bonus games will make it even awesomer.

Fluttershy

The Swapper is a really good game.

RedRiderX

It's so cheap but I feel bad about spending money on games I know I don't have time to play

Ben Brocka

Hopefully AMD's freesync materializes soon and doesn't suck, otherwise I may have to get a gsync card/monitors and I'll be pretty annoyed if I have to

@GnomeSlice Mamota?

Ben Brocka

Actually gsync will still be useless when I want to play on TV so even that's not really a good option

fredley

@GnomeSlice Oh. Yes it is playable

Such physics

FAE

@BenBrocka Ack, really? I can't stand stuttering/tearing.

Ben Brocka

@FAE yeah it's really awful in guac for me, not sure why. Once a second it drops like 5 frames at once on vsync, and of course has major tearing without it

Even happens in window mode actually

FAE

@BenBrocka Nooooooooooo, I despise tearing. T_T

Ben Brocka

7:09 PM

Yeah, I don't think I can play it. Not sure if it's the game or my hardware or some interaction of the two though

Q: Found city in desert hex or improveable tile beside desert hex?

In Civilization 5, given a situation where you have several desert hexes around a prospective founding location and a few non-desert hexes (e.g. grassland), is it better to found the city itself in one of the desert hexes and be able to immediately improve the grassland, or is it better to found ...

Q: Found religion in capital or border city?

In my current Civ5 game, I have four cities relatively close to each other and I just got the first great prophet. Should I found the religion in my capital (most population atm.) or should I found it in a (well connected) "border city" several hexes to the north, which would be closer to my nea...

I haven't fired it up yet, I'll have to check whenever I do.

Ben Brocka

PC really needs an end-all solution for tearing without v sync stuttering, and I'm not sure g sync is going to be it, being Nvidia only and only for some monitors. I really dont' want to rebuy 3 monitors and still be unable to use it for my TV anyway

FAE

Is there a way to change the SE chat notification ping through anything?

Ben Brocka

Was impressed with Giana Sisters so far. The world switching animations are great, gameplay very smooth

I just mute it because I hate it

@FAE The sound bit?
