The signatories on that petition are... encouraging.
I like the names that are clearly Skyrim players like 'Alduin T'
you mean people like "VagMuncher V"?
or "Stop Right There, Criminal Scum." Or "Wabbajac K"
Oh.

Q: A dead racing game

LeandroIm looking for a game like Destruction Derby II, where you crash, injure and kill your opponent and you win points or something for that, or you can race as a normal race. Please only for PC Thanks in advance

That could be any number of games...
Oh wait. It's not ITG.
It's game rec.
@Lazers Something tells me that a user with 10 questions and 18 answers at SO and only 63 rep probably isn't very good at reading FAQ's or rules.
03:08
it just me or are there lots of image dupes in that skyrim question
@NickT That's kind of the joke.
Hey, wait a minute, isn't this one of those things from Megaman?
@GnomeSlice That seems like flawed advice. You have to sleep sometime, right? Better to get someone to go in halvsies with you on the tank, so that they are equally invested, and willing to run shifts to protect the tank from Repo Men.
@GnomeSlice Yes, that is definitely one of the construction hat bots from mega man
@GnomeSlice is that scorpion from MK?
@NickT ...What?
It's Bionic Commando: Rearmed.
Which is on sale. You should get it.
8 hours ago, by GnomeSlice
Bionic Commando: Rearmed is 70% off ($2.99). This is a reinvention of the classic game, not that terrible new 3D one.
@LessPop_MoreFizz I recognized it immediately too.
The background on that website hurts my eyes.
03:25
@GnomeSlice Oh right, the one Nitrome game I really liked was Mega Mash.
I think that's one of the few I haven't played. :P
Is there no character limit on tags now?
It should still be 25
Never seen it do that before.
Probably because you've never entered a crazy amount of letters in there
Just looks... weird.
It's supposed to do that?
03:30
I don't know the extent but my assumption is that it's one of those "DON'T DO THAT" kind of things

When I hit a key in this question editor, my image flickers.
@GraceNote Ffft.
Not just my image flickers, my whole window does.
I don't think the game likes being alt-tabbed.

Q: What Does the Switch in 'The Construction Site' Do?

GnomeSlice I almost missed it, but this box is one of the switches like you see in the first tutorial level. I hit it with my bionic arm, and there was a satisfying clunk, but I have no idea what it did. Did it change something waaaay back down at the bottom of the level?

@GraceNote You should try Really Big Sky.
It's great.
Hey, someone bought something through one of my links, and I got some Gamersgate rewards.

Q: What is templar control?

Anna LearSome of the assassin missions in Assassin's Creed:Revelations offer "-X% Templar Control". What does this mean? What is templar control and why do I want to keep it low?

@GnomeSlice Yes.
That was likely intentional.
Or accidental, but then they decided it was too funny to fix.
I was about to sell it to this merchant, but now I can't bear to.

@GnomeSlice Is there a way to just look at the background on Nitrome.com?
> I [i]assume[/i] there will be a 2012 Tourney, since I [i]perceive[/i] there's a consensus that skipping the 2011 tourney was a mistake
and then people tell me I'm good at English.
FOOLS.
04:29
@GnomeSlice What basis do you have for this conclusion?
@badp Eh? What does being good at English have to do with some Tourney?
@John The second half of the sentence is messed up
I know a real brit would be able to phrase that in tear-inducing clarity and no [insert here the correct term for subphrases, was it dependent clauses?] in probably half the words
@badp Oh you meant British English. Didn't anyone ever tell you? That's not English at all! ;P
Seriously though, I find that sentence perfectly clear.
I said Brit for lack of a single word for "native English speaker"
:P
@badp Did you just generalize half the world as British? :P
I'm sure the Brits will be glad.
04:33
@badp Well you know what they say: "The sun never set on The British Empire. Because God didn't trust the British in the dark."

@John I've been playing Nitrome games for a while. Now just happens to be when I actually had a question.
@Wipqozn For large-enough three.
Final presentation for my class in a little over 2 hours. I'm rather concerned since one person in my group is very unreliable.
Also, he sent us an encrypted file with our presentation, but not the key to decrypt it.
Oh, it looks like he did was just send something which can only be opened on macs, even though most of the users in our group don't use Macs.
This is why I hate groups.
Oh good, it also seems he didn't make the requested changes to our prototype for today. That is to say he didn't finish it. Good thing a large portion of our grade doesn't depend on this. Oh, wait, it does.
I hate group work.
Oh, and the video someone made for our group is terrible. you can barely see what is going on.
A required video, that shows off our prototype.
11:54
"Blair Witch Project" kind of terrible?
@MartinSojka I've never seen that, but sure.
Well, the presentation seems good so far. So thats one thing.
Oh good, the presentation itself is good.

@agent86 Yeah, that just about sums it up, doesn't it?
18:33

I was just about to post that

@agent86 Dare I ask what Terraria is?
@badp psh, if you live in some country that doesn't use 'AMERICAN DOLLARS' (USA!USA!USA!) I guess you'll pay something else.
@AshleyNunn it's like minecraft, if minecraft was 2D
and $2.50
@agent86 Says the guy who doesn't use Correct Earth Time.

@agent86 Oh, @GnomeSlice's going to be pissed off now
@badp I can't hear you over the chants of USA!USA!!
whacks Network Solutions with a stick
@agent86 That's about $2.11 more than I can afford.
18:36
@badp A lot of people don't use Condescending Elitist Time.
WOOOOOO I'm going to go and EAT A BALD EAGLE BECAUSE USA!USA!USAAAA!!!
@Powerlord Let me tell you, it's way better than Pedantic Sulphureus Time
@badp I'm not sure whether I agree with that or not.
@agent86 hey, at least we've still got AAA-status!
Rather than Terraria, today I'm subtly piqued by Sequence
18:40
Maybe I'd care if I wasn't in Extremely Silly Time.
Eternal September Time is not a very good timezone, yeah
It's still better than the annah Montana Sings Time
Then again, you think Corrupt Earth Time is better than Unrequired Time Conversion...
I would like to point out for the record that I have no particular affinity for the governing bodies of the parcel of land that I occupy currently and/or occupied at my time of birth. I find the whole thing rather silly.
that said, USA #1!!! WHOOOOOOO
@Powerlord The Letters Unrelated to Acronym Timezone is pretty damn silly.
Also, remind to go back in time and convince whomever invented Dirty, Stupid Time that it's a bad idea.
18:44
Condescending Elitist Silly Time is the Dirty, Stupid Time of Correct Earth Time.
Nah, I love DST. First off it proves that CET is indeed the correct earth time, given that even the Brits who are supposed to be the guys to made this stuff from ground up use it six months per year
they cover it up behind a convenience acronym of BST to hide their shame
they're like "what were we thinking! We totally should've claimed that timezone for ourselves instead!"
and then they take it anyway.
Also a sunset at 8pm makes me happier than a sunrise at silly-o-clock in the morning, but that's just me.
@badp but sunrise at 09:00 in the morning is silly too.
lol, the sunrise would be at three in the morning without DST?
@alexanderpas Nope, as you can see the sunrise line never crosses the 7am line
@alexanderpas oh wait you're looking at the other end
@badp Wouldn't it be like 8 PM?
@Ullallulloo sorry, brainfart

Q: Keep .ini files after patching

ArkiveSteam recently patched Skyrim while I wasn't paying attention. Now my .ini settings have been blown away and my vertical mouse sensitivity is almost 0. I know I can copy my .ini files to a separate backup folder and copy them back, but I'd like to avoid having to do this for each patch. How can...

Q: Liberated Minor Races not available in the diplomatic screen?

BobbyAs the Romulans asked it, I took the opportunity to declare war onto the Cardassians. For the most part the get a hold of Bandi which were right at my borders. As it's the nature of the Cardassians, they had taken the Bandi by force, so I needed to liberate the system. So far so good, the Bandi ...

@badp it actually does in october, november december and january
@alexanderpas well, Nov Dec and Jan are DST-less.
so having that happen in Oct as well while DST is in effect... I dunno, I imagine they could've cut it shorter.
@badp DST in those month would make the sun rise 1 hour later. ergo, sunrise at 09:00
@alexanderpas Nobody obviously is proposing to use DST year-long
That'd just be changing timezones
Also that diagram must look all sorts of fucked up in places such as west china, where they use the Beijing timezone still
Great for organization, I dunno about the locals.
I'm in the western part of my time zone. Mid-summer, the sun doesn't set until 9:20pm due to DST.
(with sunrise at 6:00am)
18:56
Honestly I love that way better than sunsets at 4pm
those are all manners of depressing
As it it, during Winter, the sun sets before I even leave work.
although I'll concede that starting a commute while the sky is pitch black still is all manners of depressing
@Powerlord be glad, you could've been at the eastern part of a timezone, with no DST and have sunrise at 04:00 in the summer
The other problem with DST is that statistics show that the number of automobile accidents is much higher immediately after DST starts.
Turns out the human body doesn't like changing sleep schedules.
