Wheeeee my party jollof rice is making my house smell so good
user15026
Which is good because it kiiiinda makes a metric shitton, apparently
user15026
(I should have noticed the "4 Cups of Rice" part earlier...)
@Ash yassssssss
user15026
I will make many frozen lunches out of this
@Ash brownies are yum, btw
user15026
00:05
@ToxicFrog Oh good :)
user15026
If I was near you tomorrow I'd offer you some jollof rice
user15026
Because I have....a lot.
00:38
Yum
user15026

I can mailbox some if you like, if picking it up would be within the realm of possible
I think so, yeah
user15026
Cool beans, morning pickup?

@John or @KevinvanderVelden have you guys done raids yet?

Q: "I had it in the same pocket as my fishing bait"

WolfBob lost some item and when I ask for a hint, he says, "I had it in the same pocket as my fishing bait." I've checked each of the maps—where is the item?

@Dragonrage We made an attempt Saturday. It didn't go well.
and I suspect those attempts sufficiently killed all desire to do those raids in everyone there that wasn't me
03:27
A note of apology to the people who complained about our #BlackPanther posts, saying "Wakanda isn't real":
@John it requires either one very knowledgeable person leading the raid, or several people who know how to do it decently well. Also a specific warframe composition is very helpful.
I had a guy who has done a couple hundred raids show me and 6 other people who have never done a raid how to do the LoR raid
It was pretty fun, and the guy made it quite entertaining with his commentary and directions.
"odd groups got left, even groups got right... 7 and 8 are whelp groups..."

@GodEmperorDune Every time I read this I get to teh gender equality bit and dissolve into giggles
@Ash I fucking lost it at that. It's so beautiful.

@Wipqozn It fills me with delight
They just tossed it in there so fantastically
Whoever wrote that is my favourite

Q: Should I replace my mac with a gaming PC?

Adrian EnriquezI would like to ask if I should replace my macbook pro (i5, Intel IRIS 1.5GB, 8GB RAM, 256SSD) with a gaming pc. I use my mac primarily to code (I'm a web developer) and sometimes edit videos using final cut (Mac exclusive). I used to be a PC user and I want to play PUBG and planning to buy...

03:55
so I've never played kingdom of loathing before. what it and west of loathing's combat systen like?
@quartata The key thing is that @GodEmperorDune thinks it's all super lame
Wait I just realized I forgot to give @Ash some love on @Ashentine Wednesday
user15026
@Wipqozn I KNOW AND I CRIED MYSELF TO SLEEP OVER IT I HOPE YOU'RE HAPPY
user15026
@Wipqozn If I reverse image search that and find out that's someone's human ashes I'm going to be sad
03:58
@Ash I just googled "Heart of Ash"
user15026
@Wipqozn awww yes okay this is making up for it
Soooo I really hope not
IT'S KITTY ASHES?! You monster
user15026
@Wipqozn It's the internet I wouldn't know
@Ash Also Heart of ash is book no. 2 in this series: goodreads.com/book/show/23845997-blood-and-salt
Which sounds like something you might enjoy?
Sounds like some weird supernatural romance
Which strikes me as something you'd like
That also popped up when I googled "heart of ash"
@TimStone I can neither confirm nor deny this
In anycase, it's midnight, and like, what am I doing I work in the morning
I blame @MBraedley
04:03
@Wipqozn you are @Wipqozn, so you only have yourself to blame.
user15026
Go to sleep, turtle!
@quartata both are turn based combat and are loosely based on 3 stats but that's where the similarities end
user15026
Dear self, you, no the other hand, do not work tomorrow. SO do not go to work after the gym.
@quartata In one you use pasta, in the other you use beans.
04:04
@quartata kol is the best
In KoL, you only face one enemy at a time.
muscle is for melee, moxie is for ranged, mysticality is for spells
So there’s no Final Fantasy-esque back row, front row stuff.
and there's no melee/ranged/spell
There is.
I mean all of that is relevant I guess, but I'm pretty sure the difference between using pasta or beans is the biggest difference
@Unionhawk bruh i can't wait 8 minutes for PUPPERS
*ranged/spell doesn't mean you're further back and it's harder to hit you
it also has an ascension system, not sure if west of loathing has that
hold up whch one uses pasta
@GodEmperorDune it's a vod my man just skip ahead
04:08
Kol
@quartata that's a class in kingdom of loathing
hm
why should I spend money on an obviously inferior version
badp can back me up on the pasta thing
kol also uses sauce
user15026
Or turtles!
@quartata Well, the classes are Seal Clubber, Turtle Tamer, Pastamancer, Sauceror, Disco Bandit, and Accordion Thief so you figure it out.
04:10
kol limits the amount of turns you can play, west of loathing you can play as much as you want, whenever you want
and the seasonal ascension classes
west of loathing also has tighter lulz
I was kidding
@GodEmperorDune well if you're rich it's a lot less of a limit :P
kingdom of loathing the lulz are spread out across 15 years' worth of added content
04:11
@GodEmperorDune also the limited adventures are there for a reason

Q: Identify old top down space game from late 90s/00s

SystemX17I need help to identify an old top down space shooter. It wasn't a scroller game though, it was kinda open space. The ship you controlled would "bounce" off enemies - this is one of the key features I remember that doesn't seem to be present in other games. I am pretty sure I would have gotten it...

user15026
@ASCII-only well, yes but it is still a limit
anyways was just curious to see if it was a kind of paper mario/mario and luigi affair or more traditional turn based
@Ash which most battle(?)-based online games have
@ASCII-only yes, it was originally a performance limit and then it kinda just stuck as a design choice
04:12
@GodEmperorDune performance limit?
user15026
@Lazers2.0 I don't appreciate what I assume is hyperbole in that last paragraph.
@ASCII-only less server hits
@GodEmperorDune do you have source?
I thought every game has it so people with no life don't have a significant advantage
@ASCII-only one of the kol dev podcasts
user15026
It is too late I don't wanna have to pull out the "OCD is not funny" soapbox on an ITG
user15026
04:13
I should be in my bed or something
I mean, could be both.
user15026
oh good its deleted
but i couldn't tell if that was a retcon
@StrixVaria Also ITRTG
they did say they were influenced by some other game that had a similar limit
like a MUD or BBS game or something
user15026
@ASCII-only Context for this link please?
idk why i posted that link actually (found a bunch of other games like KoL)
user15026
....okay

Q: What are minigame ratings used for?

@KevinvanderVelden AH, but random other times of the weekend work? Like friday evening (EU evening) or saturday night? :p

Oussama KhalafIf the owner of the game is offline and has shared their library with multiple people, how many people can play at once?

@Wipqozn What am I getting blamed for?
The passage of time
Oh that reminds me
Nickelback is coming to the netherlands according to ads. I'm blaming @Wipqozn for this travesty. You should have done a better job containing them
Hi everyone! Good morning!

Quick question... is there a stackexchange wiki page where I can create walk-throughs?
Stackexchange is not good for walkthroughs.
Ok! Thanks!
well.. is there a good place to write walk-throughs?
I'm using https://strategywiki.org/wiki/
@KevinvanderVelden Just ask for your nickel back
@MBraedley My irresponsible ways
@Wipqozn We already have the nickel back, we don't want the damn nickel keep the nickel in your pocket >:(

Naming Link “my dude” turns everyone you meet into a very chill bro
this is super accurate
When you’re feeling self-conscious but your friends at the gym encourage you
CC @Ash
Right twitter images onebox now
@Ave See also: Naming your Pokemon character "Oh no, I"
Ave

nice
Specifically for OoT you need to go with "Fuck me", just because when you go into the ice cavern Navi says "<Name> it's cold in here"
"Oh no, I captured a Pikachu!"
13:22
@PrivatePansy Don't you mean "Gotcha! Pikachu was caught!"?
@DanmakuGrazer I actually cannot remember.
@Ave the I think first set of replies there is spectacular
@vianna77 GameFAQs in txt format
@Frank because no one reads the tags even when they use them. so many problems could be resolved if people did
@PrivatePansy someone named themselves "Oh no,I" didn't they
what happened to the old days when everyone used to name themselves "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"
@Memor-X Yup, it won the bid war at AGDQ 2018
@Memor-X Rival: "butts" (until Nintendo stopped letting you name your rival)
@KevinvanderVelden I've got Gaebora's theme stuck in my head now and I blame you
@KevinvanderVelden I called it!
It was rather obvious

@KevinvanderVelden I don't even have to click to know what this is and now it is going to be in my head all day
You're welcome
So apparently the downtown library has a maker space and now I wish I lived in that county
@Dragonrage I've led several full squads of people who've never touched raids before to victory. This was a simple case of not being properly prepared
user15026
@KevinvanderVelden this is awesome.
user15026
@Unionhawk my local one does too and they just got more funding for maker stuff and VR stuff
14:11
You have to balance the good CCs with the bad CCs =p
user15026
@KevinvanderVelden indeed, life is all about balance
user15026
Our local library system also has a Library of Things so you can like check out tools or household things or whatever
Yeah, they have like, a button machine and a couple other things too here
We reserved the vinyl printer so stickers may be in our future

Q: How do I select and modify an NPC I can't see, via the console?

CDoveMy dragonborn is in a bind. I'm doing the Thieves Guild quest line and am using Frostfall and iNeed. This means I need to travel to Winterhold to prepare for a long, cold walk. The problem is, be it fast travel or carriage, there are always Bandits with ranged weapons that spawn up the hill beh...

user15026
Very cool!
14:15
Also apparently there's a book machine too?
Man I need to just move south
Not too far south though
Unless like, south of the equator
Nah just like, into the jurisdiction of the library. Or I guess I could go and help when we're doing makerspace stuff
it's still a public space you just need a library card to reserve things
@John tbf, the second one we were getting better, a second try would have gotten us through that part.
@Arperum Maybe, but I still think we were underprepared.
Like the part where @SaintWacko was sitting up in the room coordinating helped a ton.
@John Absolutely.
user15026
14:20
@Unionhawk libraries are so great. :D
Except that here they have soooo few english books :(
Either way, I don't care if we get another chance (that would be awesome) or not, thank you @John for giving us the chance to at least give it a try.
The one closest to me built a new building a few years ago (it might be like ten years ago actually...) but I don't think we have anything on that level
Libraries \o/
@Arperum I still want you guys to beat it, but my last chance to help with that will be Saturday, so people need to grind a little bit if we want that to actually happen
Also we haven't even got you guys the injector research
The sooner we can do that, the better, because build times and stuff
14:24
@John Ok, what do I specifically need to grind/farm this evening?
@Arperum What frame did you bring to LoR, again?
I don't remember
I have a frost that I'm leveling. I think I brought Oberon?
ah, okay
Nova, transference, and archwing levels/mods
are the 3 things that would help the most for you to have
so probably nova tonight, because build times
I could go for a barebones nova that is far from perfectly equipped if I farm up the pieces.
All we really need from a nova is some range and duration
you're just there to be a second stomp, basically
14:26
@John Archwing is lvl 15 or 17 or something, so loads better than it was, plus the weapons I have are significantly better modded now.
there is more you could do but that's all we need nova to do
@Arperum Make sure the archwing itself is getting more mods on it. Seek out a couple survivability mods for it
You gotta be able to live
They are not potatoed yet.
I won't be around on saturday
obviously potatoing helps but i'm not gonna force you
@KevinvanderVelden saturday is the last day but friday is possible
@John Yea, I have four or five mods for it. The archwing is potatoed.
I have the hp boosting mod, but not the shields booster. I got armor and shield recharge.
14:28
@John I'm in CET, what's your timezone?
@KevinvanderVelden EST
@Arperum I'd prioritize nova tonight, then
Wiki says she drops from the Raptors
I'll get to murdering them.
If I get some help with Lua mission challenge rooms or such, and a taxi service I could unlock TWW quest too, but first Nova farming.

Q: I have lost my Th 8 account and forgot password and didn't. connect can I get it back

user205751Th 8 Builder hall 6 semi max Th 8 semi max I have tried from coc to get it but couldn't.

Since 2 challenge rooms is all I'm missing for unlocking the junction with TWW quest reward. (plus getting to it, but that won't take long/that's why I need a taxi))
if i'm around before you sleep maybe i can help with that

Q: What are the possible results for the wheel of misfortune?

Steven VascellaroIn 8-Bit Waterslide, collecting a rainbow token lets you spin the Wheel of Misfortune for a bonus. What are the possible results for the Wheel of Misfortune?

@John Ooo, I would like to farm Nova as well!
Buuuuut I'm on probably too late to help @Arperum.
@Yuuki I'll be leaving work in 1.5 hours.
user15026
@Yuuki it is so cute! I love elephants
Nova is just on Europe, so it *should not be too hard.
@Arperum I can hop on in about 25 or so minutes. Just got home from work
14:55
@Dragonrage Yea, that's too early for me :p
@Arperum I just got to work.
I have lunch break in about 2.5-3 hours though.
:D
Top 10 anime crossover events
@Arperum oh I thought you said you were leaving for work in an hour and 30. I'll be on for awhile though.
Probably will try and farm loki p for a bit at least. I think I have enough relics, I just need the void traces to enhance them
That time (90 minutes) seems about right, I think the 25 minutes is too early =p

@Yuuki Mesa trivializes the Raptor fight just fyi

@John Hmm...
La la la, removing lots and lots of code
Sooo many compiler errors to fix because of it
@KevinvanderVelden is it held up by chaos emeralds?
15:07
@Dragonrage Looks like we might be attempting the raids again later, did you want to come or was that completion you already got all you wanted to do?
Though it looks like you didn't do JV
@Yuuki Just peacemaker them down and make sure you dodge the missiles
I didn't get a chance to do JV so I'd definitely like to do that. Also I'd like to do some more of LoR if possible. It just so happens to be a good place to farm Ash
@Dragonrage It's a good place to farm a lot of things
Ash, G3 drops, rare crate drops, ayatans...
This is true.
Alright so looks like we might be making another go at it fridayish
I got 3 1/2 hour credit boosters in one raid
15:09
pop into here so i can ping you there when we go pls
We'll need to agree on a time before hand
And actually have people be there unlike sunday =p
@Dragonrage This happens basically every run, and is the reason most raiders say raids are the best credit source in the game by far
@John Maybe if the Index had a 1 hour credit booster as a final wave reward...
@Unionhawk That certainly explains all the rain. @KevinvanderVelden STOP DUMPING YOUR UNWANTED SEA ON US.
@Yuuki "final wave"?
15:10
@John Correction, third wave.
I like that idea. Too bad I don't work for DE
I just haven't gone past the third wave because I think it's too much effort for the same amount of reward.
I doubt they'd buff it again after having just recently buffed it though
they'd want to wait and make sure they don't kill the economy
raids worked because so few people did them
Are credits really a part of the economy though?
I need to go farm eidolons more though. Need some focus and quill rep
@Yuuki costs 1 mil to get a primed mod traded to you
And credit costs for maxing mods are pretty steep especially the rare ones
15:12
@Dragonrage Sure, but that's a transaction fee levied by the game and given to no one.
@Dragonrage That's not really part of the player economy though.
@Yuuki Not having credits certainly hampers you in everything though.
I don't think credits really have a value in the player economy though, it's almost entirely plat-based.
@Arperum That's a barrier to entry but not really a medium of trade.
As far as I can tell, a spike in the credit supply wouldn't really kill the player economy.
Not having credits prevents you from doing any sorts of trades. So it is part of the cost of trading.
How to break the economy; allow ducats to be purchased by credits
That would kill all the things
15:15
@Arperum That's like saying investing money into third-world countries would will kill trade. No, it would just enable more countries to be capable of trade.
Unless maybe at a mil per ducat
15:41
@John Friday Evening raid will be without me, or it'll have to be whenever I get back home from DnD
Or alternatively: https://ツ.ws/

@Arperum gah why cant you Euros all be available at the same times as everyone else?! Or even each other??
@John Hey, I'm up for trying saturday too.
15:53
@John I'm going out of town for a week this Wednesday night
Which is noon for EST people
So we could meet up at 6 hours later? Midnight for me, 6PM for you @John
maybe even @Arp will be back by then
@KevinvanderVelden Maybe, I'll see if I can push people to play DnD at my place.
@SaintWacko ookkaaaay so does before Wednesday night work for any/everyone?
Fine by me
Wait no, timezones
@KevinvanderVelden Yea, you don't want US evenings.
16:01
Unless it's tuesday evening, that'll be okay for me
But otherwise nope
Just stay up until 5 it's fine
I am not @Arperum
Though if everyone wants to say yes too running it at 6pm EST I can do the thing
@KevinvanderVelden Nope, My hair looks significantly better.
Good morning bridge. I celebrated the annual ritual of entropy over the weekend known as a birthday.
@John I might be available for a little bit tonight, but it's not especially likely
I'll be packing, and DameWacko will be there...
Sadly, you guys may just need to plan to do it without me :(

@ToxicFrog this isn't exclusive to ow mind you
although I usually hear it as "team stack" or just "stacking"
@ToxicFrog There are 6 people per team, in case that needed clarification. So a 6-stack means that you have no random matchmaking interfering with your teamwork.
@John So I did some research and if I was taking Volt in the raid for max energy purposes, then Ivara would've been a better choice.
Ivara has more base max energy than Volt but Volt Prime has more max energy than Ivara.
