(but I think @WorldEngineer would be kinda confused then.)

Garan

@AshleyNunn Yes, and I'm the bloody Messiah because I'm totally descended from David.

Yuki

@AshleyNunn When isn't he?

user15026

@Yuki He is dating me, and I am kinda chaotic, so you have a point :P

user15026

@Garan Well then. See? People can surprise you ;)

Yuki

TIL @Garan is the third coming of Jesus.

Garan

03:01

@AshleyNunn The point I forgot to mention was that it's impossible as I'm a Levite. It's impossible for me to be the Messiah.

I have GREAT EXPECTATIONS!

See, I have to believe he's going to arrive eventually. I don't actually have to act each day as if he's about to arrive, unlike SOME people.

(I'm looking at you, all the Hareidim that aren't here)

Sorry. I'm ranting again.

Yuki

@Garan Happens to all of us.

user15026

It happens.

user15026

I am singing to random Disney. :D

Yuki

You rant about Judaism, I rant about Frozen, @AshleyNunn rants about... well, everything.

We have our niches.

user15026

@Yuki This is truth.

Garan

03:05

It's just that, well, I'm right.

That's the biggest problem.

Yuki

@Garan And that's why we rant about things.

Garan

@Yuki Basically. But when one person is right, and the other person thinks they're right, you don't get far.

And when they have an anchoring bias against you, well, you could see the resulting issues.

user20683

I am right. That's an independent fact of anything else. So you can easily be right too.

FEichinger

And @Uni is always wrong.

So that makes arguing with him easy.

Yuki

@FEichinger But what if he starts arguing for the position that he is always wrong?

Garan

03:07

"This statement is false"

Yuki

@Garan "This statement is ~~false~~ @Unionhawk".

Garan

It's ok, we accept your incorrectness.

Unionhawk

@badp is worst pony </3

FEichinger

03:09

@Unionhawk You are wrong.

Unionhawk

Actually, yeah...

FEichinger

You are objectively wrong.

Not just @uni wrong.

Unionhawk

Well, see, now it's just a non-sequitur

Garan

We are heralds of the objective truth

user20683

I use three valued truth.

OrigamiRobot

@Unionhawk A bunch of my houses caught on fire.

Unionhawk

@OrigamiRobot GOOD

OrigamiRobot

The whole incident cost me like 20k in food

Unionhawk

Let me revise: @OrigamiRobot is worst pony

Garan

Ooh! Anyone have any cosplay ideas?

OrigamiRobot

According to meta, I am best pony.

@Garan What about Jarvan?

Anyway, the holiday of drunkenness is coming up!

GnomeSlice

OrigamiRobot

I mean do you want it to be a character or just a theme in general or what?

GnomeSlice

@Garan Angry Birds.

OrigamiRobot

@Garan Groundhog's Day?

Garan

@OrigamiRobot Purim!

OrigamiRobot

03:14

@Unionhawk You didn't accept my invite to Banished chat :(

Garan

It's literally a commandment to get so wasted that you don't know the difference between "Praise Mordechai" and "Curse Haman"

(Those being a prominent good guy and bad guy respectively)

But yeah, commandment to get wasted!

SimonL

So what would they do with a person like myself who has never gotten drunk before?

Garan

@SimonL Is that from preference or just lack of experience?

SimonL

Preference

spugsley

I have also never been drunk :D

OrigamiRobot

03:16

@SimonL Which presumably means lack of experience.

Garan

@SimonL Then you can just drink a little and then fall asleep. It counts.

OrigamiRobot

@spugsley You get drunk off cupcakes.

spugsley

@OrigamiRobot no, that's high. I often get food high

user15026

@spugsley says the lady who got high off of graham crackers

SimonL

I've been to parties and had a beer and what not - I've just never gotten drunk.

spugsley

03:17

@AshleyNunn omg they were so good. I should go get more

OrigamiRobot

Graham crackers? Seriously? Graham Crakers?

They're not even sweet!

Garan

It's really funny though to hear all the "Oh, the rabbis of the 2nd century were on a higher level" and at the same time there are stories of one of them getting so drunk that he chopped off his friend's head.

OrigamiRobot

@AshleyNunn DO YOU WANNA WATCH THE THING?

Unionhawk

yesterday, by spugsley

apparently, eating too many graham crackers = being high

Q: What are the unmentionable enemies in Dwarf Fortress?

My understanding is that if you dig down deep enough in Dwarf Fortress, you can run into an extraordinarily nasty type of monster. It also seems to be a tradition among players of the game not to mention these monsters' names on forums — they're too evil, like Voldemort. I don't have the game, b...

@OrigamiRobot Do you wanna watch the thi-ing? Come on, lets go and see!

SimonL

@spugsley Are you sure you weren't in a stupor?

spugsley

@SimonL it's definitely possible. Cupcakes and graham crackers have a very interesting effect on me

Unionhawk

I'm not sure I want to know what getting high on graham crackers feels like >_>

spugsley

03:21

@Unionhawk it's a beautiful experience.

Garan

@Unionhawk Now I'm curious.

Also, @Unionhawk, you're wrong, you actually do want to.

spugsley

1) go buy some graham crackers
2) eat an unseemly number of them
3) flail happily

Unionhawk

@Garan No, I do not.

Garan

@spugsley Mmmm... that would be a great idea were I not broke.

I sold a Steam card trading card for $7 today

And then I wasted most of it on foil cards.

03:25

I should maybe sell those. I don't see any value in keeping the,

GnomeSlice

You can make badges.

Garan

@GnomeSlice Which have what value?

GnomeSlice

@Garan It's mostly just cosmetic stuff, although levelling up on Steam increases your friends list size, and nets you some other bonuses at higher levels.

Garan

@GnomeSlice Don't you already do that from playing and getting achievements?

user15026

@yuki I do not trust that guy. One bit. (Read that comic you linked)

GnomeSlice

03:26

@Garan Playing doesn't level you up. Dunno about achievments.

If we hit 1000 tonight I am buying @BanishedGame, I have been dying to play it. https://indiegamestand.com/deal/

FEichinger

@Garan Playtime and achievements do not directly influence Steam level.

Garan

@FEichinger Then what does?

FEichinger

Badges.

Most of which are gained by crafting from cards.

Garan

Anyway, I'm still looking for a costume idea.

I already have long hair, by the time of the holiday I'll have enough of a beard, all I'd need is a white robe...

I could be JESUS!

GnomeSlice

03:44

@Garan Gandalf

Garan

@GnomeSlice not that long of a beard.

Ktash

@Garan The dude, man

Frank

I now need an HDMI splitter.

Garan

@Ktash Maybe. But the dude is already my brother.

Also i don't have the hair color.

But, I could do Walter!

FEichinger

@Garan Why, but that can be changed.

Garan

03:46

After all, I am Shomer fucking shabbos!

Though that would require a hair cut that I'm not getting for at least another 6 months.

Frank

So. We have an anime convention coming up this weekend.

And most of the english Sailor Moon voices will be there.

Garan

It would be dangerous for me to get to where the one coming up will be here in Israel.

Mostly because the bus drivers will be drunk.

Frank

They won't allow photos of any of guests unless you buy an autograph. Which are minimum $10, and a single day pass is $20.

Fluttershy

@Frank If you get me Sailor Jupiter's autograph, I will totes send you the $10.

Frank

03:53

@Fluttershy Don't you still owe me like $10 or something? :P

Fluttershy

@Frank Do I? :o

Frank

@Fluttershy Well, there was that shovelware, Legends of Pegasus, or whatever it was called.

SimonL

Fluttershy do you play Natural Selection?

Frank

Such high potential, wasted.

spugsley

omg I just ate so much vanilla ice cream

Fluttershy

03:55

@Frank Oh yeah! Man... that game was so bad. :\ But I do owe you for that!

spugsley

how much ice cream is too much ice cream?

Fluttershy

@SimonL I don't, but I own NS2!

Frank

@spugsley Are you still standing?

user15026

@spugsley Never

Fluttershy

Such high potential, wasted.

SimonL

@Fluttershy I meant NS2 - I'm asking because I saw someone named Fluttershy on the CrackMania server a few moments ago.

StrixVaria

I remember a friend claimed he could easily finish the 12-scoop sundae from Friendly's. We bet him that if he finished it, we would pay him back for the cost of it. He definitely didn't finish it, and it was the best bet ever.

Fluttershy

@SimonL Ah, nope. Wasn't me. I own it, but I've never installed it.

StrixVaria

@SimonL There's a bajillion people named Fluttershy on the Internet.

Fluttershy

@Frank Indeed.

@StrixVaria Accurate. But I'm the ~~best~~ ~~cutest~~ best.

Garan

03:58

Hmm... Polling the chat! Should I change my avatar?

user15026

@Fluttershy Both of those!

SimonL

@StrixVaria But I had to know if it was the real Fluttershy or an imposter.

Frank

In other news, apparently Chroma Squad's beta has been pushed out to October, but they haven't said anything about it on their Kickstarter.

StrixVaria

@Frank Deja vu

Fluttershy

@StrixVaria Yeah. It's somewhat irking, since they started out so well.

Q: What should we do in the next 30 days before the expansion?

I have been inactive for a very long time and have not been following news. Logged on the game today and checked my stash, I have: 600 Demonic Essence 39 Key of Destruction 27 Key of Hate 6 Key of Terror 3 Inferno Machines some Organs ready to be crafted My main questions are, should I use up ...

spugsley

@Frank ugh no. We're well past standing

FEichinger

@spugsley Don't let him tell you anything else. There's no such thing as "too much".

Frank

@Lazers This might be something we can answer, provided there's enough information about the expansion.

spugsley

04:03

@Frank thank god. I'm starting to think I might have an ice cream related brain aneurysm

Frank

@spugsley Well, I was gonna say, if you're still standing, you haven't had enough. Since you're down, though, I'm not sure where to go from there.

spugsley

@Frank I can still see. So I think we're good.

Garan

@spugsley Wow. I've been reading persian names so much recently that I read the word "aneurysm" wrong.

Ktash

@Frank I'd say it doesn't help after the expansion comes out, is very opinion based, and is very localized to this person. I vtc'd, but I don't have the game, so feel free to disagree

spugsley

@Ktash I also VTC'd

Frank

04:06

@Ktash Personally, I agree with that, but there might be answers that can be provided. Although it's applicability drops precipitously after the expansion launches.

Q: How do you get into the Thieves' Hideout?

I appear to have lucked into answering the questions for getting into the Thieves' Hideout right on my first try, just by picking things that sound thief-y. There must be some in-game way to actually figure out what the correct answers are, though. Or is it just trial and error? (There are only 9...

zelda-link-between-worlds

spugsley

@Frank everyone's going to have a different opinion about what should be done. Not everyone has the same priorities

Frank

@spugsley It could be a good subjective question. If we know what the expansion is going to do, what to do with things can be extrapolated.

StrixVaria

@Frank Expansion is unreleased content. Isn't this speculation?

Ktash

@Frank Except we won't know what the best decisions were until the expansion is out. So, as a subjective question, a good answer can't be known until it is too late

Frank

04:12

@StrixVaria ...right. It's unreleased, and everything is subject to change until we have the game in our grubby little hands.

Forgot about that one.

@StrixVaria I would think so.

Q: Counter Strike CS:GO Operation Phoenix Gold Coin

How do you acquire a Silver or Gold coin in Counter Strike CS:GO Operation Phoenix?

StrixVaria

Assuming we had some kind of set-in-stone set of exact changes that will be made in the expansion, I think this would be good-subjective.

But we don't, so it's off topic.

Ktash

Also, I'm not sure there is enough detail in the question for that kind of good subjective

OrigamiRobot

@StrixVaria Your face is good subjective.

Ktash

04:16

@spugsley I love how the hand one turned out! :) So much detail and so much power!

David M

spugsley

@Ktash it looks great as a print :) Even better than online. The other one almost looked like a painting, which was also cool!

Ktash

@spugsley Yes, I love them both, but I especially love the hand one

spugsley

@Ktash I'm so glad you like them <3

StrixVaria

@OrigamiRobot After doing the fire and ice temple thingies, I was disappointed by the Thieves' Hideout.

Ktash

04:18

How could I not? :D

StrixVaria

Then I realized that one probably is supposed to be first.

OrigamiRobot

@StrixVaria After beating the game, I was disappointed by the whole thing.

StrixVaria

@OrigamiRobot :(

I have bought every item but 1, and I still have 4 temples left to do.

Although this ass in the forest wants 888 rupees for some item he won't tell me what it is.

Frank

Well. That flag will get validated quickly.

OrigamiRobot

@StrixVaria I hated the new item system so much. It made the game so boring for me.

user15026

04:20

@StrixVaria You could likely look it up

Ktash

@Frank Already done

user15026

@OrigamiRobot Yeah, I found it really took the fun out.

StrixVaria

@AshleyNunn I don't want to, though.

user15026

@StrixVaria Fair enough

StrixVaria

I'm going to just save up 888 rupees and see what it is.

It shouldn't take long.

Ktash

04:21

@StrixVaria There's a good lad

StrixVaria

@OrigamiRobot I like the idea of it. I don't really like the execution.

Slowpoke

Foolishness, @Ktash, foolishness.

Frank

@StrixVaria In the forest? I think it's a golden bee.

Slowpoke

Might controls everything

even Pokemon.

OrigamiRobot

@StrixVaria It would be fun if you could only have X number of items at a time and dungeons required a specific set and you had to figure that out on your own.

StrixVaria

04:22

@OrigamiRobot I was just thinking this, actually.

OrigamiRobot

But no. Here you go, have all the items. You'll lose them when you die which will be never.

StrixVaria

I've died once :(

I now own all but 1 item, though, so it's still moot.

Plus farming is free at that challenge tower thing.

OrigamiRobot

Also, later you don't even have to worry about that because you can buy them since there's nothing else to spend money on.

Unionhawk

I farmed the 2 red guards in Hyrule castle outside 2f so much, it wasn't even funny.

OrigamiRobot

Part of the fun in Zelda dungeons is seeing all the areas you can't get to yet because you don't have the dungeon item. Then you feel so good when you get it and can access those areas.

This just takes that away completely.

Unionhawk

04:25

Yeah, I tend to agree

OrigamiRobot

And seeing all the area in the overworld like that. It gives you a good sense of progress.

I like the game overall, and I think it's going to be a fun one to watch from a speedgaming standpoint

I couldn't imagine watching a 100% run though... stupid baseball

I haven't liked a Zelda game since Twilight Princess.

Meh, I'm not a huge fan of skyward sword and the DS zeldas either.

It's not the greatest, but it was still an enjoyable experience.

David M

@OrigamiRobot When I started driving, it was about $1/gal

$1.09 was the price at the corner gas station.
