Yeah...
I'm totally stressing out about it. :P

You have to make the rules, enforce them, take care of the website/mumble/vent/whatever, manage membership, manage officers, deal with drama, etc.

I was once a Gunbound guild leader.
For the very same reason - shortly after joining, the head guy up and left.
 
FallenAngelEyes
FallenAngelEyes
Even for a small casual friends guild, it can be a lot of work. I've been a guild leader for like 6 odd years now because our original one left.
She got addicted to WoW, and thusly stopped paying for the website/forums/vent, never contacted us, we never heard from her.

Make sure you make it clear that you're not an "official" Stack Exchange Google+ page.
That's all I have to say on the matter - I might as well warn you before someone else on the Team discovers this down the road and comes at your father with a hatchet.

Could we ask someone on the team to make an official one then?
Come to think about it, I'm not sure if our FB page says it's unofficial.
 
Grace Note
Grace Note
@RonanForman If you don't make it clear, then, yes, it is actually likely. Though we may employ badgers instead of hatchets - I've been seeing far more badgers in our internal pipelines than I ever expected.
@RonanForman You should amend this, probably. I think a community-run FB/G+ page will suit better than one run by us.

@RonanForman Oooh, point made
I don't think there would be an issue but I can see you taking precautions being wiser anyway.
 
badp
badp
@OrigamiRobot Well, the intersection points are simply very close to that corner, so the algorithm picks that one up
My corner picking logic is "find the corner that is closest to the two intersections"
 
FallenAngelEyes

@GraceNote The thing is G+ wants to be an "identity service" and we can't guarantee that they won't flag the account for takedown if we don't have an actual person's name on it.

Ronan Forman

5:39 PM
I'm going to leave it for now.

the thing is that it does a sum of euclidean distances to both intersections from both corners and sees which corner has the lower distance
 
John
John
I'm inclined to say that technically SE's licensing gives us the authority to spread around any of the content we would be posting.
 
OrigamiRobot
OrigamiRobot
@badp does the problem com when the PoI is exactly on a corner?
 
badp
badp
in picture 3, the up-right corner has basically 0 for the closer intersection and a straight line to the other intersection, so you can't get any better than this.
I need to find a better corner scoring system, or just penalize corners that are really close by.
Let's try the penalty first.
heh, obviously. If I penalize the corner what happens is that the next best corner will be the one closest to the farther intersection
and basically you zip through it.
I might need to work with headings. Again...

Stack Exchange Gaming Blog: 50 Items You Want to Stick With in TF2
badp on July 27, 2011

So you just installed TF2, and you started playing, and you like it! However, your one page of loadout goodness is barely enough to keep up with your first few weeks of drops. You have to prioritize. You’ll have to discard some items to make room for others.

Certainly you’ll want to try each item before deleting, but some items are objectively better than others.

Here’s, in my humble opinion, the items you want to stick with, plus other alternatives that didn’t make the cut. …

Point is that I don't have to feel bad for the game
I showed the MM&B one to my brother a couple weeks ago. He loved it.

Oh yeah, @GraceNote there's a paragraph on the page creation screen which I'm worried about.

What part are you concerned about?

@Pyrodante is your profile e-mail set to the same e-mail as your gravatar?

@RonanForman The subject matter in this case would be the Gaming Stack Exchange community.

my profile got all messed up, they fixed most of it but the gravatar is still messed up

@Pyrodante Did you change the email or did you change the image on gravatar itself?
 
Pyrodante
Pyrodante
neither, my chat account got totally disassociated with the rest of my accounts...
 
Grace Note
Grace Note
Have you tried changing the association, then changing it back to Stack Overflow?
Oh, that's why
Your chat.stackoverflow account is pointing to a non-existence Stack Overflow account
Your account here is pointing at stackoverflow.com/users/706836/pyrodante

I know, something happend to destroy my old chat account... its weird

A: Why did my keyboard stop working?

JohnSomehow, I had managed to turn on SlowKeys (Login Screen -> Universal Access Preferences). The result was that I had to hold keys for very long periods of time for them to work. Turning it off fixed it.

Grace Note
@Pyrodante Have you considered just changing the avatar on the actual Stack Overflow account, then?

@IanPugsley I was clicking around on the login screen and noticed that was the only "Universal Access Preference" that was selected.
@Tristan Same here...

This doesn't look good.
This has happened before.
And our accounts are somehow marked now.
Because this doesn't happen for everyone.
Looks like the only thing we can do is wait. :/

Q: What good is Mastering a crafting level?

RawlingI just Mastered the Apprentice Forester crafting and the popup said I could now get critical successes and use items to boost my crit rate. I've been able to do this since I gained Proficiency, so what does Mastery actually get me?

So, a friend of mine just watched Firefly/Serenity for the first time... She managed to be completely spoiler free when she started. Now she's screaming at me. <.<

@Ullallulloo Have you seen the show/movie?
 
Ullallulloo
Ullallulloo
Did you spoil it? :P
@Tristan Nope
 
Tristan
Tristan
@Ullallulloo I didn't spoil it. She's just upset at something that happened during the course of the storyline.
 
Ullallulloo
Ullallulloo
@Tristan Ah, okay.

Also, you should watch it. there are only ~13 episodes and the movie.

@Tristan I don't even like scifi, and I hate whoever canceled that show with a burning passion.
 
Tristan
Tristan
@Ullallulloo I make a habit of watching the complete series in one sitting every 6 months.
@StrixVaria I love sci-fi, and I enjoy westerns, so I think that's why I loved the show so much.
 
Ullallulloo
Ullallulloo
gah, most episodes require hulu+
 
StrixVaria
StrixVaria
@Tristan I like the show because of River (the character; being played by Summer Glau is irrelevant)

Also, Alan Tudyk and Nathan Fillion are two of my favorite actors.

Alan Tudyk was pretty amazing in that show too.
I don't think I've ever seen him in anything else...

@Tristan I don't know anyone who has watched it fresh and has actually been spoiled. People tend to be pretty good about this one.

Alan Tudyk is also really good in 3:10 to Yuma.
@OrigamiRobot Wasn't it amazing!? It took everything you'd expect from an 80s slasher flick and threw it out the window. lol

@OrigamiRobot I think my favorite part was when the girl started freaking out, "What is that!?" and Dale just said, "Aaahh! Issum pancakes! You don't like pancakes? I-I-I'll make you something else..."
