@Strix > Ha no worries. :P That was the idea though.

This is precisely why I wasn't in favor of having one giant all games weakness question!
tzenes
tzenes
because we close it as duplicate?
Grace Note
Grace Note
Actually, it's not quite appropriate there. Since the weaknesses in 2 are... wonky.
tzenes
tzenes
Yeah, but that's the real answer he wants
and the dup talks about the wonky-ness
and even if there were more to add, we'd want it in the other question
Grace Note
Grace Note
Doesn't actually explain the wonkyness, though
tzenes
tzenes
ok, but if you did have an explanation, wouldn't you want it in both answers?
if I want to know the boss ordering that information is kind of crucial
Grace Note

All the weaknesses aren't necessary for boss order.
For example, Magnet Man and Spark Man have two weaknesses each, but we only list the important one in the ordering.

Here is the problem I have with comic books: I am not going to pay $2.50 for Superman #700. Its never going to happen. I might pay $10 a month for unlimited comics, or maybe $10 for a complete storyline, but at $2.50 a comic its just not going to happen
Be reasonable DC. Offer me the entire Brightest Day Story line for $20. I am willing to pay that.
Or hey, what about monthly subscriptions? that's how netflix got me. They give me unlimited movie for $10 a month. MOVIES. Like with moving images and sounds. Heck they even have some Justice League on here
Your profit model is as broken as Newpapers (and that's saying something), so you need to adapt. Come, join us here in the 21st century
allow me to subscript to a series and automatically download them to my ipad
and don't charge me an arm and a leg for what is essentially a 15 minute experience

:11301 That right there is why I just wait until the narrative is done and buy a trade for anything that looks interesting.
(It helps that I'm primarily interested in the sort of shorter runs that have a kind of self contained narrative and thus, an eventual 'ending' to be fair.)

Q: Do the weapons have different melee effectiveness in Left-4-Dead?

CasebashDo different weapons used for melee in Left for Dead 1 either do more damage or more knockback or are they different in any other way?

weapons left-4-dead
Should probably close as duplicate of

Q: What's best for hitting stuff with?

GnomeSliceSomething's been bothering me for a while now, even though I don't actually own the game (yet). It seems to me that different melee weapons in Left 4 Dead 2 operate differently. For example, I've noticed that the Machete seems to have a shorter 'reload time' than say, the Fireman's Axe, or the ...

A: Please change the default text for title textbox of the question

Jeff AtwoodCorrect, that is not from us, that's from your browser's autocomplete -- I don't see that in Chrome or Firefox though so it must be a Safari quirk.

Of course the bug isn't something they can fix. But trying to claim it's a quirk of a browser where the asker wasn't experiencing the bug is also silly and kind of pointless.
badp
badp
:11410 I guess he once submitted the form when that text was still in :/
Anyway, I wrote out a suggestion
LessPop_MoreFizz
LessPop_MoreFizz
Yeah, that's irrelevant to my point. Calling it a 'Safari Issue', is just flat out inaccurate, regardless of whether it's fixable or not, and whether it's a browser side problem or a SO side problem.
