Q: Best MMORPG that has similar gameplay as Cabal Online?

WarterminatorI played Cabal Online for a long time. Now the Service is temporaily shut down. I search for a similar MMORPG. Criteria: no "comic" graphics no looting with mouse (better with Space or other key) something like "Battlemodes in Cabal" no skill casttime with a loading bar ...

Q: Why does Yuri not mind control the president during the Soviet invasion

Marriott81During the Soviet invasion at the start of Red Alert 2, The president of the USA phones the Premier of Russia and asks what he is doing with the invasion. After some banter between the two, Yuri is shown to pick up a phone, contact a nuclear silo and tell them to not open the doors so the missile...

Jokes

Proposed Q&A site for share, create and translate jokes around the world for the joy of SO users

Currently in definition.

 
@NewlyOpenedProposalsforEntertainment ....
 
@NewlyOpenedProposalsforEntertainment Hey, I think I see the first joke! This proposal!
 
@TrentHawkins You must be joking, right?
 
@Arperum Possibly, but I fear if we go to far into joke-ception, it will collapse.
 
@Frank Prices dipped overnight (as one might expect) and then returned this morning.

Q: Help with auto Punkin farm/melon

FalseFlashI want to build this (Punkin/melon farm) on my world but I want to build a huge tower of it but I don't know how I can transport the items down to a chest without using more than a 100 (example) hoppers. ( I don't have enough iron to build the hoppers all the way down) Thanks.

 
@OrigamiRobot Prices dropped on fanciness?
 
@Wipqozn Sleeping is less fancy, yes.
 
@Frank any chance for me getting that fancy spreadsheet of yours? So I can see if europe is as profitable as the US servers?

Q: What exactly counts as "connected" research nodes?

UnionhawkI'm working on Thaumcraft research, and I can't seem to pin down what exactly it will accept as a "connected" research node. I know there has to be a straight line path between research nodes, but how far away can they be? Ideally, the more I can save on research points by maximizing the efficien...

Cc @arp
Also, the winner of the 'least helpful comment award' goes to... -.-
 
@Unionhawk I'll make you an answer this evening.
Or do you need it now?
 
> How can I tell a Joke?
 
Later is fine!
 
> If it makes laff is joke?
 
I'm never able to login except for late evening here anyway...
 
12:51 PM
Is it late evening now?
 
@LessPop_MoreFizz I was happy to be the first down and close on that.
 
@Unionhawk One tip: you can try again to create a research if the nodes are located terribly far away from each other. SO if you have a research started with water (and you have a ton of water aspect, but not much of the more advanced stuff) and it looks like the nodes are terribly placed, just throw it out and try making a new copy of the research (again, starting with water).
 
And to those who ask why others find lore questions distasteful... "This is clearly foreshadowing, BUT I AM IMPATIENT" is a prime example of why. — LessPop_MoreFizz 1 min ago
And on that note, I am off to work.

Q: Is it possible to pass on Event exclusive moves through breeding?

RobotnikSomeone on a trading group offered me an 'Event Pikachu', which was a Pikachu that knows Surf (normally impossible to teach to Pikachu). Unfortunately it was a previous Generation's Event, and as such doesn't count as a 'Kalos-Born' Pokemon for tournaments/rating battles and the like. So assumi...

 
1:07 PM
Diablo 2 OST? Yes please!
 
@badp Yeah, but those sentences don't even parse correctly.
"just remember then past and then it" wat?
It's a double-bad lifehack
I'm going to remember the past where there were no lifehacks
 
@Sterno Rather you should imagine a future where there are no lifehacks and then remember how you got there!
Easy peasy!
 
@Sterno I made you something
oh wait, WAIT WAIT
 
1:23 PM
I better just owner you now so I can de-owner you when you post a lifehack
 
abort abort abort abort
@Sterno See? You are now remembering the future!!
 
YOU HAD IT COMING
 
1:24 PM
so did you ♫
 
I always have it coming.
 
@StackExchange MOD ABUUUUUUUUUUSE
 
I guess your recollection of the future was insufficiently accurate
 
Hrm. It occurs to me that that guy probably is dying, making that tasteless.
 
1:27 PM
@Sterno I still laughed.
 
@Wipqozn Well it was incomplete
Lifehacks are "If you need X do Y"; that was just "do Y"
It's a solution without a problem. An answer without a question. An hack without a life.
 
@badp Imagine a future where you're dying in a fire, and then remember how you got there.
 
@Sterno I remember I allowed Sterno to get into matchstick flinging range.
 
Supposedly it can roll up to 100% of enemy life. Seems handy.
 
1:31 PM
@Wipqozn Did you find that?
 
@Wipqozn Go kill some elites with that. boom
 
@OrigamiRobot No, someone on reddit.
 
@Wipqozn What's the difference between stats with a colored bullet point and stats without?
 
Boring
 
@badp I've been asking that myself too.
 
1:32 PM
@badp I think one indicates random properties and other set properties.
Legendaries and (I think) rares always have a few fixed bonuses +X number of random magic properties.
 
No
There's actually an Arqade question about it!
The ones with the colored bullet point are not factored into the Damage/Toughness/healing numbers
 
oh, nifty. NIFTY NIFTY NIFTY.
 
I find those stat increases really arbitrary
 
@Sterno Where is that question?
 
what does it even mean to have a Wisdom score that goes from 12 to 1,684 or whatever
 
1:36 PM
@Sterno Feel free to find it, because my arqade fu is sucking
 
@Wipqozn Imagine yourself having found it and remember how you did it!
 
@badp Good idea!
 
I'm pretty sure I'd left a comment on it but don't see any comment about it in my history. Maybe it was deleted for some reason.
Nope, that must have been something else. Here it is:

Q: Why are some stats on items marked with orange diamond and primary/secondary titles?

ArremerSo after patch 2.0.1. all items have stats split in to the primary and secondary groups and some of them are marked with orange diamond. What is the logic behind this? It seems too random.

Or the comments just got deleted
 
@Sterno This
> comment flag: obsolete
 
@badp MOD ab use
It was just someone bitching about downvotes, right?
 
1:42 PM
Clearly you imagined yourself needing this question but wanting to learn about backwards induction lifehacks, so you flagged your own comments to doom yourself into your future!
You're quickly and retroactively getting good at this.
Have you been taking lessons from @spugsley?
 
I just imagined a future where I was good at it and then remembered how I got there.
 
What a stupid flag.
Words alone can not describe how stupid that flag was.
 
@Wipqozn Now I want to flag that.
 
Metaception! I love it.
 
@Sterno Not if I flag you first!
 
1:48 PM
We're remembering a future of future remembering and flagging posts about flagged posts
I am overjoyed
 
I remember a past where I removed @badp as room owner. Those were good times.
 
For a given flag f, calculate the probability s(f) that the flag is in the set STUPIDFLAGS. If f is in S, calculate the probability m(f) that a mod from another site will suspend your account anyway.

@Wipqozn Brevity is the soul of wit?
 
1:51 PM
@OrigamiRobot Brevity is the soul of wat?
 
This is Q&A, not... um... something that needs wit.
Damn, I wish that was wittier. :(
 
Exercise: circle the soul in the above representation of wat.
 
is @John ok?

I support @Wipqozn in his effort to star all of @John's :(

 
ok, so what did happen to @OrigamiRobot's Arqade account?
 
@Blem Use the force
 
@Blem @Wipqozn ate it.
Greedy turtle.
 
@OrigamiRobot I'm such a jerkface.
 
you are silly @OrigamiRobot, you could remove your self from the burden of the site with out deleting your account...
 
2:00 PM
I could not have.
 
@Arperum Right, I did find something that says that sometimes, you'll get an impossible research. So, there's that.
 
I want to go home and play Diablo 3.
 
@Wipqozn My weekend started yesterday! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAAHAHA
also I don't have Diablo 3.

@Frank :(
 
I just want to go home, don't necessarily need to play Diablo 3
 
2:09 PM
My weekend starts later today \o/
 
37 days till vacation :/
 
@OrigamiRobot You could have at least given me a dozen 500 point bounties
 
You know this winter has been bad when temperatures increase to just 5C below the normal average temperature. On the bright side, this morning was still 15C warmer than it was Monday morning.

Q: Where can I find how many Skip Challenge Stars I have?

AProughI noticed that I have some items that allow me to skip Challenges for characters, but I cannot find how many I actually own, outside of an actual match. I would like to know where I can find how many I currently own so that I can plan out their use. I did not find it in the Stickerbook.

 
INB4 @FEI
 
2:18 PM
@Unionhawk Hm?
 
@FEichinger You just got "INB4 SPUGSLEY"ed... except you aren't spugsley, so that wouldn't have really worked.
 
@Unionhawk And I also don't do the "HI BRIDGE PEOPLES!" thing.
So inb4'ing me is ... pointless.
 
I live for pointless things.

@Unionhawk I dunno, you kinda look like you have multiple sets of three points to me.
 
He merely remembered a future of having a point, and set his avatar appropriately
 
2:23 PM
@badp If this is a leadup to a "@UNI IS WRONG LOL" joke, I'm going to stop you right there.
 
@Unionhawk Turns out it wasn't until you said that.
I guess it's a self fulfilling prophecy...
 
You're done
 
I wish I was done playing Earthbound
 
@Unionhawk It wasn't, it was a predict-the-future-by-remembering-the-past-lifehack joke.
 
but I forgot to remember a future where I backed up my save files properly

2:39 PM
@Sterno No, I'm greedy.
 
@Arperum Those who cannot dismember the past are condemned to repeat it.
 
@Powerlord I cut of parts of the past every day. Does that count for dismembering?
 
@GraceNote Right, he has all the points he wants. He'd moved on to pointless now.
 
@Arperum more like, predict the past by remembering the future
 
How did I know you idiots would star that?
 
2:43 PM
@Unionhawk ♥
 
@Unionhawk I'm going to resist starring this.

How about you remember the future where I get tired of you calling people idiots
 
@badp Oh snap!

@OrigamiRobot Oh, I ran out of welcome packages. Sorry.
 
@FEichinger I hope you will say everything you say.
 
I can't see robot's messages until someone stars them or I refresh the page..
 
@OrigamiRobot everything you say
 
squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
 
@3ventic Why?
 
2:46 PM
I don't know
 
The solution is to star all my messages.
 
Welcome packages to the "Deleted Arqade Accounts" club that is
 
@3ventic How do you know refreshing works then?
 
I will be so popular.
 
@Arperum Because I refreshed the page and messages appeared
 
2:47 PM
@Powerlord Did you even ever own an account on a website that was called "Arqade"?
 
@3ventic You pressed "hide posts" in the user context menu? that's a temp ignore until refresh.
 
@badp "Did you even ever had" ...
 
@badp No, but the club changed names after I joined.
 
@Arperum nope

Q: Color changing fountains in wazhack

JustJeffSometimes fountains turn blue or pink when you drink from them. Is there any significance to this?

I don't use hide/ignore at all
It's not all messages either, just some of them
 
It's happening to me now, too.
 
@3ventic That's rather random.
 
Ok. South Park has one of the most... unique... boss battles ever.
 
@3ventic is it consistent?
 
Oh, wait, no, I just had @Lazers ignored. Why would I ignore @Lazers?
 
2:48 PM
@badp Not at all
 
I can try something if it is
 
@TrentHawkins I'm waiting for it to come down in price before getting it. :/
 
@FEichinger Because you are working on being the ignore most users ever person?
 
@Powerlord understandable. It's fun, but I'm not entirely convinced it's $60 fun.
 
@Arperum Naah.

Q: Should I recharge entire portals or individual resonators?

RedSiriusI've noticed that when recharging a portal, whether I choose to recharge just 1 resonator or all 8 resonators I still receive the full 10 AP reward.

PeterCoHow many levels do we have for clothing? So far, I've found two: - Ragged ('zerlumpt'/'zerfetzt' in German) but there is no visual difference to - Excellent If citizens wear excellent clothes do they need less firewood in their homes or do you know any other advantages?

Q: How can I signal a typo in a tag?

Antomight-quest-epic-loot should be mighty, I think. How can I report the typo?

 
Sold 1700+ Perfect Squares this morning. Made ~140 million. Now crafting roughly 2000 to do it again.
 
4:23 PM
@Frank What were they selling for when you sold?
 
@OrigamiRobot Roughly 97K or so.
Checking prices this morning, Flawless Stars are where it's at.
 
GODDAMMIT. My star on the good morning was cleared again!
STAR ABUSE
@Frank Any chance for giving me some info for the EU market? I'd love to see what I can do over there.
 
@Arperum I can happily send you my spreadsheet if you want it.
 
@Frank I will happily accept it!
 
@Arperum You'll have to tell me how to get it to you.
 
4:29 PM
@Frank hmmm, steamchat has no option of sending attachments. email would be easiest then I guess.
mynickname @gmail.com
where mynickname gets the logical replacement, and no space.
 
Email sent.
 
Email arrived.
 
Bridge, entertain me while I'm at work
 
@MBraedley [insert joke about butts]
 
@Arperum Should be pretty straightforward, but feel free to ask if it confuses you.
 
4:33 PM
 
@Frank Checking the sell prices for each tier is a pain.
 
@badp Colour still looks a little off, if this is for @SepiaLazers
 
@OrigamiRobot Indeed.
 
@MBraedley It is.
 
@Frank It wouldn't be so bad if I had two monitors.
 
4:35 PM
@OrigamiRobot I have two, and it's still a pain.

Yes, and add some colour to the background

The last part is added by me.

I dunno, this picture from Wikipedia seems way oranger to me
but fine
 
Oh, the update for Twitch streaming/media remote/headset adapter on Xbone is ready.
 
nah
 
@badp :(
 
4:38 PM
Also apparently "support for 50Hz TVs and set top boxes"
 
monocolor icon is monocolor
 
@badp Sepia is a colour palette, therefore we have a problem.
Sepia lazers should really be monochrome lazers anyway
 
@fredley sepia(yellow, black) = first color, second color
There's no room for a third color!
 
@badp I'll use all the damn colours I want to!
 
Lazers's profile image should be blinding
 
4:41 PM
then we should go back to the lazers disco
@3ventic We used to have a lazers disco gif
 
@3ventic Lazers' profile image should be an actual lazer, shooting out of your screen
 
it was pretty blinding
 
@badp Can we gif?
 
@fredley Not anymore
 
Meta has no lazers, so it should just be a black square of darkness and gloom.
 
4:42 PM
If animated gifs were still allowed, we'd go with
 
@badp This makes me happy
 
@fredley I crafted every single frame lovingly
 
@badp I can see
Your dedication to Jin is admirable
 
He gave us LAZERS
 
Also your dedication to the furtherment of doge and doge byproducts.

@Arperum Yeeeeep.
 
@badp Oh, I was referring to the @SepiaLazers avatar
 
@OrigamiRobot I can barely purchase a single set though, because pisspoor.
 
At current prices for US, Perfect Squares give stupid amounts of money.
 
@Arperum Here it's only like 20% profit after AH fees
 
4:47 PM
@OrigamiRobot The higher grades are less though.
 
@Arperum Yep
@ME PING
 
@OrigamiRobot most prices are significantly higher on eu then on US, based on the values in the spreadsheet. radiant star ruby costs double on EU.
 
@Arperum In fact, I'm not even going to bother putting higher tiers in my spreadsheet.

@Sterno I HAVE NO IDEA!
 
@Sterno buy two pieces of armour at the same time
 
ugh. I just noticed that I'm checking the hardcore AH.
 
@Frank I guess you can buy a lot of shopkeeper level 70 loot when the expansion hits
 
4:51 PM
That explains the stupid pricey rubies
 
@Sterno Which I can't salvage.
Or use.
 
Oh, right. You're not getting the expansion.
Yeah, that makes this even more pointless.
Sell it on the RMAH
 
I'm wondering if I can sell some gems on the RMAH. If I get enough cash to buy the expansion, I might do it that way.
 
@Frank I actually thought about trying it, but gold is only like $4/50m before fees
 
bah, the softcore option is way less profitable. for amythist: 3/6 upgrades cost you money...
 
4:55 PM
@OrigamiRobot I was thinking of just selling the gems themselves; they were going for a quarter per, which means I'd need to sell 160 of them.

Q: What are all the post-Pokebank movepool changes and move stat changes?

John doeI mean,which pokemon had movepool/movestat changes after pokebank was released.

 
@Frank Yea but you can only do that when you're cashing out completely unless you wanna buy on the RMAH too.
 
@OrigamiRobot can't you buy blizzard games with blizzard credit thing?
 
@OrigamiRobot Nah, I can dump it into my bnet balance, and use that to buy the expansion.
 
I guess it's not really differen't either way.
 
4:57 PM
also: emeralds: loss all the way. Europe is smarter then US.
europe softcore anyway.
 
@Frank Yea but I mean you can't dump it onto the RMAH until you'd get the full amount for the expansion
 
@OrigamiRobot Why not?
 
@Frank Unless you wanna buy on the RMAH too
 
@OrigamiRobot ...Why? Doesn't bnet balance carry over?
 
@Frank If you convert all your capital to $, you don't have anything to keep going.
 
4:59 PM
@OrigamiRobot Oh, that's what you're getting at.
 
You'd have to do it in increments.
 
I was planning on dumping a few on the RMAH, and see if I get any bites.
 
I dumped all my gems yesterday. They sold in seconds
