I know this is an SO question... but... I really had to share.

Mana ಠдಠ

I was trying to figure out if he was talking about politics or pfffffffffffffft

badp

We were. The point about the number of choices during the election phrase being three bring weird as we have two positions.

@GraceNote that guy should be given a badge or something

Mana ಠдಠ

I see.

Wipqozn

That said, it's rather obvious it's just a troll.

Grace Note

Aww, deleted already.

user30

user30

Anyway, I think maths had 3 votes for 2 places

Copying it to a pastebin since I have the tab still open

Mana ಠдಠ

and pastebins are clearly more permanent than SE stuff

user30

hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

user30

if you could upvote or favourite my question, it really helps me out

Mana ಠдಠ

So I guess he simply grabbed some random question and lulz'd it?

badp

11:07 PM

Should've been tagged plz-to-send-teh-codez

Grace Note

@Manaಠдಠ This question, to be precise (thanks to research from Mark Trapp for finding it!)

Wipqozn

Hm. I might start playing FFXI. Never played before, but seems really interesting and a friend of mine is thinking of playing again.

Has anyone here ever played it before?

GnomeSlice ツ

@Wipqozn Is that the one with the ladies?

Mana ಠдಠ

No, that's FFX-2 @Gnome.

GnomeSlice ツ

@Manaಠдಠ Oh, right.

Wipqozn

11:21 PM

FFXI is the first FF MMO.

Mana ಠдಠ

It is also the last FF MMO.

Grace Note

@Manaಠдಠ I see you're in the "FF 14 never happened" boat

Mana ಠдಠ

@Grace There's an FF14 coming out?!

Grace Note

@Manaಠдಠ It... already... came... out...?

Mana ಠдಠ

o_o

Man, only 10 Recettear questions? I thought the game was more popular than that.

Grace Note

11:26 PM

A lot of it falls naturally.

I asked my question out of extreme hasty desire moreso than actual trouble, for example.

Mana ಠдಠ

@Grace Ah. No 100 friggin' secret treasures to go grab then?

Grace Note

No. Just... random drops. Lots and lots of random drops and random treasure contents.

I'll reiterate my enormous and gratuitous amounts of seething rage at the lack of spears being found in chests

Mana ಠдಠ

Huh. Sounds addictive.

Wipqozn

@GraceNote I disagree. You can't release something you never finished.

(lol et cetera)

Mana ಠдಠ

Oh man, it's almost 66.6% done downloading!! ALMOST TWO-THIRDS THERE

stares at the download bar for the rest of the evening

Grace Note

11:29 PM

I need at least one kind of spear so I can make a newer kind of spear which will let me fight the guys I need to fight so I can get yet another cool new spear. It's a great process but I haven't gotten that first step argh

Tom Wijsman

@Mana: What are you downloading?

Mana ಠдಠ

Recettear.

Wipqozn

@Manaಠдಠ excellent game.

FallenAngelEyes

I still need to finish that game

Grace Note

Oh, and if you ever hated bees from Chantelise, @Mana...

Mana ಠдಠ

11:34 PM

@Grace :(

FallenAngelEyes

heh heh heh

I mean

heeeeh heh heh

Wipqozn

I need to finish it actually :/ I was on the second to last week, and I didn't keep track of what day it was so I needed to restart...to say the least I have not gone back since

Grace Note

I managed to 1 loop it, yayifications ♪

Tom Wijsman

@Mana: Dungeon hack&slash, a lot of items, fast UIs; kind of like it.

Grace Note

All while also getting a Nagi Card, even more yayness ♪

The view angle reminds me of Pokemon Rumble...

Skip first 30 seconds or so, or just see the screenshot.

Raven Dreamer

I am afraid my middle mouse button may be dying. That makes me sad.

Grace Note

That is troublesome

Raven Dreamer

I finally have my PC working properly now!

Before I had each separate component in a different quadrant of the room so it was a spider web of random wires and took me 10 minutes to find the mouse.

Moving is a hassle, but I think I'm good now!

In non-narcissistic news, what's up?

Grace Note

I'm getting further infuriated by a lack of spears.

Raven Dreamer

In Reccettear?

Wipqozn

11:44 PM

I assume you like spears?

Raven Dreamer

That sounds like a loaded question.

Grace Note

@Wipqozn Well, yes, I do fancy polearms. But more to the point, I like spear girls.

Mana ಠдಠ

@Grace I...see?

Raven Dreamer

Is that a thing?

I can't think of many spear girls.

Wipqozn

@GraceNote I assume the Fire Emblem character in your avatar is a spear user?

Grace Note

11:45 PM

@RavenDreamer Nagi?

@Wipqozn Nope.

Mana ಠдಠ

@Grace Dragon girl?

Grace Note

In fact, none of my gravatars are spear users.

Raven Dreamer

@GraceNote - Her, and Nephenee... and then the next spear girl I can think of is Leia Sivla, from Ogrebattle 64 who was basically a Valkyrie, the female spear using class.

Wipqozn

@GraceNote dang. Well I'm just happy I figured out it was fire emblem based on the art, even though I never have played the game she is from (since it's japan only).

Raven Dreamer

And I don't think she quite fits the bill.

Grace Note

11:46 PM

@RavenDreamer Amelia, just to name another FE.

I would count Valkyries and Leia.

Wipqozn

@RavenDreamer Nephenee <3 Such an awesome character. She messes shit up like nobody's business.

Gameplay wise that is ^

Raven Dreamer

Ah, yes. I suppose that includes every pegknight ever, actually.

I made a FE7 style Nephenee sprite.

Wipqozn

Yeah, it would.

Grace Note

@RavenDreamer That strides more to the Green Hair part, though.

Raven Dreamer

@Wipqozn I was so sad to learn that Nephenee was a country bumpkin!

Wipqozn

11:47 PM

I rather like peg knights. Although they can be really tough to use, since if they get hit, they die.

Raven Dreamer

I think the Florina / Hector pairing in FE7 is hillarious.

(Given the respective personalities of the characters)

Here's my sprite:

Grace Note

Cute

Raven Dreamer

You shoulda seen the first iteration. It was... pretty horrible, in retrospect.

Grace Note

...I hate taking the wrong turn at the start and picking the direction from the start point that is 95% of the entire map.

Raven Dreamer

Silva.

Not Sivla. Blah.

@FallenAngelEyes lives in Germany? Toll! Ich spreche ein bißchen Deutsch.

Tom Wijsman

11:56 PM

Und ich bin einen auslander und spreche nicht gut Deutsch. :(

Raven Dreamer

@TomWijsman I bet you've never walked into a Swiss restaurant and asked the nice waitress, "Wo kann ich Wien kaufen?"

Grace Note

@RavenDreamer No, she lives in the Netherlands.

Like everyone else did, before people started to reveal just how many of you were hiding in Eastern US

Raven Dreamer

@GraceNote Aha. Still closer to Germany than me. Us.

Tom Wijsman

@RavenDreamer Wien = Wine? I understand the rest from my very basic Deutsch.

Raven Dreamer

Wien = Vienna. Wein = Wine.

That's right... I want to buy the city of Vienna. All of it.
