that is one thing I really like when someone doing massive changes of one type, I fly through them and grab the tags, flag some questions, and touch up the odd thing or two else
but I miss a lot, since I'm focusing mostly on tags
but then all these posts are on the front page, so then other people see them and fix up other issues
I want to replay Fifa Manager 11 after a long absence and I'd like to update all the databases with fan-maintained ones.
I'm looking for Fansites, where I can primarly download UEFA/EU databases like Germany, France, England, Italy, Spain, Scottland.

Yeah, I've been accused of necro-ing old questions before, when what really happens is someone else bumps the question back to the top, and then I just buzz through and take advantage of it to make some housekeeping edits.
@Wipqozn I am able to cast a single close vote, same as everyone else*
*moderators not included
How do you think that's a shopping recommendation?
I think a better reason to close it is that none of the information they're asking for is related to a video game. It's related to a real life game that then relates to a video game.
I'm pretty new to this game and maybe I'm missing something obvious, but is there any way to pick up a glowstick after I throw it (usually accidentally...)?
I'm considering buying a copy of the RTS classic Total Annihilation, and I was wondering: What do I need to buy to get "the full experience"? Just The Core Contingency, or do I need the game and its two expansions to play?
So, rather than putting my room back in order, my roommates and I went out to dinner, then I went to look at new computer desks. Unfortunately, we didn't have a car big enough to hold the box for the one I want.
Also, my cell phone died. I only got it 2-3 weeks ago. :/
So, today the demolitionist appeared, and night has now fallen, but instead of going to the cosy NPC friendly house I had ready for him, he seems to constantly wander between my house and the guide's house (which actually has an empty floor that he could move into anyways).

I have GTA 4 on Steam and I use commandline.txt but it doesn't work. When I launch it, Rockstar Social Club just pops up asking me to log in and after I click Play or Play Offline, the game starts and commandline.txt doesn't work just as if it's ignored

When an election gets more than 10 nominations, primaries are held to select the top candidates. Currently, primaries select the top 10 nominations so that no election will have you choosing among more than 10 candidates, but that can be awkward when you are asked to pick the top 10 candidates......
Should every question about a game include a tag that fits it into one or more genres? Should we only use genre tags for game-rec and family questions? Should we not have any genre tags at all?
I removed the roguelike tag from http://gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/5174/how-can-i-survive-ge...
My stance is more recently like how I go on about platforms. In there, I explain that the tags best helped when there were platform-specific issues, as the tag limit interferes with more prevalent usage. We also have tag wikis and tag sets on stackexchange.com.
Now, there's no such thing as a ge...
This is mostly an extension of badp's answer, in so much that it highlights our lack of real tagging capability. However, it's a bit too long for comments. I'd also like to point some attention to previous posts on tagging practices, discussing some parts of this issue.
In other subject matter, ...
(mostly I want a single question to link to when editing these tag wikis)
I don't think anthony.trupe is around anymore to change the accepted answer, so we should probably just edit the currently accepted one, neh?
Or should we make a new one? I'm not sure what the accepted form is when a user's not around anymore.
I've been meaning to try out Terraria, but it requires Windows and I only have a Mac. I can use things like Boot Camp or a virtual machine, but is there a way to run it without resorting to running a copy of Windows?
I'm buying an HDTV for the living room, to watch movies and play on the PS3. Earlier, console gaming on Plasma TVs was a bad idea because of burn-in, refresh rates, and/or display quality for console/computer output.
Is this still a problem? Does anyone here play on a Plasma TV, and is the exper...
Can you guys cool it with the re-tagging? Gaming doesn't have nearly enough activity absorb retagging 25 questions at once, and you guys are starting new rounds before the old ones are cleared off the front page
@MarkTrapp Clearing out the issues with genre tags and games
Where a question game is tagged with the game name and genre

@Wipqozn The front page is now completely useless, you've bumped questions off the front page that normally get the chance to live for several hours because Gaming doesn't have a high question volume
user2334
Gaming's been doing fine for a year with the tagging situation; it can survive a little more time to afford only retagging a few questions here and there
not so much a make sure you did it right situation, but make sure no ones screwing around with the system for laughs
user2334
@Wipqozn Raise a meta question about it. You must see that you've just bumped over 50 questions to the front page in your tagging: can you do it in smaller batches so it doesn't kill the site for everyone else?
@MarkTrapp I have, and no one in chat seemed to have a problem with it. I started doing this yesterday.
user2334
@RonanForman No idea what that is. I just found MacTerraria a few hours ago, and figured it could use a question and answer pair, because I've been itching to play it but haven't because I don't want to use a VM
I still think we should implement a method to do ghost retagging, although obviously not everyone would be permitted to do so. Otherwise fixing all those tags is going to take a fairly length amount of time.
My apologies for that then. It was mentioned a few times about how the front page was all me, I guess @GraceNote and @badp just didn't see that. I assumed you did, so when you didn't have any complaints I assumed it was okay
I don't seem to be able to get the sex card for woman from the village.
What are the prerequisites? I tried to talk with the peasant women both right after entering the chapter and after completing most of the quests, but in both cases it just didn't happen.
I do have an idea for a meta suggestion though then. Granting certain members temporary ghost re-tagging powers for massive tagging projects, like the genre and games issue I was trying to fix.
Or has something like that been discussed between the SE team and shut down?
@badp While I was in town today I picked up a few flyers from some of the stores here that offer prepaid sim cards (many of the small grocery stores offer them because of the immigrants population) to check stuff out for you but they were all offers from June 1st to Aug 31st :/

This is kind of odd. I can't make a post because I can't get past the Human Verification page. There's no captcha appearing but it's expecting one.
