The bountier apparently forgot to award the bounty.
 
Ah, crap
Did they tell you they would?
Award it to you I lean
Mean
 
It was initiated for the express purpose of awarding my answer.
But it worked out in the end.
 
Oh
That sucks
 
The bountier just started a new bounty.
So I ended up with double what I would have gotten.
 
12:02 AM
Oh nice. Higher than the precedent then
 
Gotta love bounties.
Without them I'd be down a privilege level.
 
Here?
 
No.
I've never received a bounty here.
 
Alright
Oh?
 
So sad.
 
12:07 AM
I thought you'd have
 
Oh, actually I have.
I hust got one recently.
 
Ah! I knew it!

A: What favor did Moody owe Dumbledore?

AlexI don't think there is necessarily an indication that Moody owed Dumbledore a favor. Here is the relevant quote from Chapter Fourteen: "You'll be Arthur Weasley's son, eh?" Moody said. "Your father got me out of a very tight corner a few days ago.... Yeah, I'm staying just the one year. Speci...

Pretty lame that that's one of my highest voted answers.
Wow, it's actually my third-to-top.
And it has nothing in it that's particularly related to Harry Potter.
 
True but still a sound answer nonetheless
 
But not one that displays any level of Harry Potter expertise.
 
12:12 AM
One of my highest voted answers suggest I'm a Dragon Ball expert.
Which I'm completely not.
 
Was that the one that was mixed up with Pokemon?
 
Yes.
I'm way more of a Pokémon expert than a DB one.
 
Ah, those were the days when I used to read your answers.
 
Heck, I'm even Pokémon Master of a couple regions :P
 
Hm, your highest answer is not accepted.
 
12:15 AM
@Alex ooooh, retaliation? ;)
@Alex eh, not a big deal.
 
@Jenayah Oh, I didn't mean it like that.
 
May 9 at 15:32, by Jenayah
Can I brag for a bit? I'll brag. I got a Populist badge over Valorum :-)
 
I don't specifically not read them. Just that I used to specifically check your profile and see all your answers.
 
Wow
Someone in Splatoon 2 has almost 3,000 hours who was playing in the same game as me
 
@Alex eh, I guess there are less HP/ID ones these days and a couple more Marvel. Which makes sense that you couldn't/wouldn't appreciate those
 
12:17 AM
That’s like 4 hours a day since it came out two years ago
 
@Stormblessed ?
@Stormblessed uh, people are devoted
Doesn't it become boring after a while?
 
@Jenayah I stopped playing it for a while
 
@Jenayah But I used to specifically read them. I don't even remember stopping, but it clearly happened at some point.
 
That's the mobile game with paintball stuff right?
 
Lately I started up again and it’s still like the best game ever
@Jenayah ...
No
 
12:18 AM
@Alex what can I do to make you read them again, then?
 
It’s the Switch game with squids who shoot ink
And are most of the time humanoid
 
@Jenayah I don't know, because I don't know why I stopped. Maybe I just got busy doing other stuff. Though if you want me to read them you can always inform me that you posted an answer and I'd probably read it.
 
Meh, they have guns that shoot paint, it's paintball :-)
 
A bad trailer
With a horrible song
The music (the actual music in the game) is quite good
 
@Alex no worries. But sure, if I ever want you specifically to look at one I'll tell you :)

Q: Was Missandei ever seen again?

JakeGouldNow that we are past the vague-ish title the question, my question is more clearly and succinctly: I mean, Cersei Lannister would not have kept her around, correct? A slave of the enemy? Do her friends ever get to finally say goodbye to her in some way? FWIW, I am actually not a big Game o...

 
Okay, let's compromise. Squid paintball.
 
A cool song
 
Or no, better yet. Paint squidball.
 
@Jenayah with inksplosions (a pun it uses a concerning number of times)

I'm finishing up my 1,000th answer.

12:57 AM
@Alex how’d you count?
Just adding?
 
@Stormblessed Network Profile.
it has a column listing answers for each site.
 
Why is there a white shadow on headers?
@Alex oh, nice
You can see the shadow right after an answer loads from a link
How did @Jenayah only get 1 upvote (2 now due to me) from this detailed answer but the much shorter answer has five?
Oh

@Alex a question can be useful while having shitty answers
 
@Jenayah Right, but you'd think that in such a case you should upvote only the question.
Yet site guidance says otherwise.
 
Ah ok I read your post
Good point, upvoted
 
Now that's how you subtly ask for upvotes.
 
Tssss
 
In any case, that wasn't what I was thinking of originally, so I'll admit that you have a good point about linking the question instead of the answer.

But on the other hand, some people will get bored by the question and never make it down to your answer.

A: Why doesn't Hogwarts carry spare wands for the students that need them?

Jenayah(so, I edited this to include the other theories I started to develop in comments. PMar's answer states the "obvious" but is actually quite plausible. So, theories to follow are assuming Hogwarts could have spares, but just won't.) (after-writing note: so it's quite long, and sometimes biased, b...

I quite enjoyed the style there independent of the content.
 
That kind of style is harder to put in story-id answers

What I was about to say

@Alex Wait three years.
 
5:15 PM
@Jenayah How did you not get any downvotes on that?
@Mithrandir Is that when the next Fantastic Beasts is coming out?
 
Yep.
 
@Jenayah Already upvoted that one long ago.
@Mithrandir Isn't that quite a bit longer than the previous two took to make?
 
Yeah, there were delays or somesuch
 
@Alex dunno. Probably because nobody cared enough. There were some close votes, though.

Not get brain knots from reading your meta posts
Not get into ultimately pointless arguments until way too late in the night
Not spend hours figuring out WTF your question is asking
 
Those all sound like good things...
 
But on the other hand I guess I'd practice argumentative English less often
And would have less laughs
And would have less knowledge about Judaism
 
Dec 27 '18 at 1:49, by Alex
I'm wondering, have you noticed an improvement (not that it was bad to begin with), possibly due to all the writing you have done here?
 
So y'know there's a balance :P
 
@Stormblessed I have access now, if you're still interested.
@Jenayah Feel free to argue in French...
 
7:59 PM
Of course, nobody will understand you, so...
 
Mais tout à fait.
 
I guess that means you win by default.
 
@Alex weird to get pinged 6 months later
 
@Mithrandir Wait, if no one understands what you're saying then you win? Considering the above comments about my posts not being understandable, I think that makes me a winner!
@Stormblessed Well your message had the luck of being near the message I cited above about Jenayah's English writing, so I was reminded of it.
 
Nah, there's a crucial difference: You're just being unintelligible. Jenayah would be speaking reasonably, probably, just that nobody else is smart enough to understand. You're just not smart enough to communicate properly :P

@Mithrandir Mithrandir = pony?
 
"I am tired"?
 
8:07 PM
No wonder you got chased by the dog...
 
@Alex No, and don't let Derpy even hear you say that....
 
"Je me marre" = "I'm laughing", in a familiar way
 
@Jenayah Interesting, if I remove the rest of the sentence it knows that it means "i'm laughing".
 
Weird
DeepL got it right. deepl.com/translator#fr/en

@Jenayah Curse you Google Translate.
 
8:13 PM
And the translation is of higher quality

Much better than Google's.
 
Yep
I'd advise to go for that instead of Google ;)
 
This is the first I've heard of it.
 
I'm sure I've mentioned it before
Ah... Not here.

It's in the story-id answering guide scifi.meta.stackexchange.com/a/12294/98028
And in a couple answers over at Movies.
 
@Jenayah "In addition, ponies ride bicycles while eating pancakes." That was the part I was most certain I was reading correctly too; that's just mean. :-)
 
@Mithrandir ומקללך אאר
@Jenayah It doesn't have Hebrew.
 
@DavidW muahahah :)
@Alex ah crap
 
So you can't figure out what I wrote to Mithrandir above.
 
@DavidW well, the rest is intentionally more "elevated" (read: fancy) French
@Alex do I want to?
 
8:23 PM
@Jenayah Given that I've edited that post multiple times, I have no excuse.
@Jenayah I don't know.
 
Alex saying "I have no excuse". That's one for the ages. This one you can be sure will be quoted any time I can :)
 
Maybe something like: Je maudirai ceux qui te maudissent
 
Vicious circle!
 
Though that's Deepl's French translation of my loose translation to English.
 
France...that's what they call northern Spain, right?

Sí.
 
@Adamant No, it's what they call the disorderly part of Germany that the Germans have mostly finally agreed they don't want anyway.
 
Win by dissuasion. We rock.

Q: Who commanded or executed this action in Game of Thrones S8E5

TGarIt seems that Cersei just stands in her fortress without giving any orders. Despite that, It also seems that she doesn't have any will to surrender. So who commanded that? Or (if no one), who actually did it (maybe they decided by themselves to do it)?

@Marvin Is Game of Thrones officially over?
 
I think another 2 episodes, based on what I've gleaned from the internet talking about it.
 
I think like two or three more weeks then we’ll finally have some non-GOT and non-Avengers questions occasionally

Q: Is Logros an actual thing in DC comics?

Wesley ObenshainSpectre #37 ('92 series) mentions Logros as the "real" or "mythic" Britain. It is mentioned again in the next issue although I think the spelling gets changed to Loghros. However, I can't find any reference to this via Google in DC comics or in mythology in general. Is Logros something they made ...

Q: Why was Driftmark castle built in an unopportune location?

einpoklumHouse Velaryon's ancestral Castle Driftmark is built on a spot on the island of Driftmark which is damp and tends to get "flooded" (I would guess slightly flooded on one side). Now, we know the island has nicer areas which don't get flooded by seawater (otherwise it would not be arable). So, wha...

Q: Who has the authority to call for a Great Council?

AsteraCan Tyrion call for a great council after the death of Dany at Jon Snow's hand? He is the ruling Monarch's hand so he should have the authority.

 
@Alex for what?
 
@Stormblessed Endgame.
 
@Alex Edit proposed...
 
10:37 PM
@DavidW Approved.
Though if I had done it myself we wouldn’t need a second approval.

Q: Why did Dany do this in S08E05?

userIn S08E05 Dany decides to torch Kings Landing and all the innocent people in it. She is angry and can't seem to hold back her rage, and apparently taken with the madness that afflicts Targarians. But why does she attack the city and the people first? Why not go after the cause of all her woes, C...

Q: Why is Qyburn so loyal to Cersei?

alec_aI've never understood why Qyburn is so loyal to Cersei, even up until the bitter end. What does he stand to gain from comforting her after her walk of shame or as her castle is falling around her?

Q: Harry Potter fanfic where Snape throws Harry into a wall and Voldemort tries to become a Dementor Lord

AmandaI’m looking for a story where Harry goes to apologise to Snape so he can start the Occlumency lessons again, but Snape gets angry and throws Harry into a wall which nearly kills him. I know later on in the story Voldemort is trying to use the Dementors and a soul stealing potion to become a “Deme...

Q: How integral is legend to the Tolkien Legendarium itself?

NickMIs an essential aspect of Tolkien's creation about legends having their own legends? I ask because for me one of the things that makes Arda so compelling and believable as fantasy is that it is a land with its own stories of varying levels of historical truth much as for us on the real C21st Eart...

Q: Why did Gregor Clegane do that in Game of Thrones S8E5?

TGarWhy did Gregor The Mountain Clegane Ok, he wants to fight his brother, but that is not a reason for such action. He is easily stronger than both of his allies, so he could just ignore them. Also, I am not quite sure, why he wants that much to fight his brother really.
