@LessPop_MoreFizz I couldn't saying he's going to be a bad mod, because he's not going to be a mod at all.

Arda Xi

@John You did.

LessPop_MoreFizz

@John It's not about being a mod at all anyway. It's about making a mod.

Somebody let David Lynch record an album.

I am listening to the first single.

I think I am scarred for life now.

John

Fine. "YOU'RE GOING TO MAKE A TERRIBLE MOD"

Happy now?

No.

6:08 PM

Lol at the vocals.

@RavenDreamer I had a really good remix of one of his songs saved in my favourites on soundcloud, but it looks like it's not there any more...

Ah, I found it on Beatportal.

I wonder why Joman took that track down from his Soundcloud? It's excellent.

I haven't actually heard the original track.

But if it's anything like the one you linked, it probably sounds nothing like that.

@Mana Well, it's David Lynch, what did you expect.

@LessPop_MoreFizz Coincidentally, exactly what his profile description says!! I wonder what it could possibly mean?!?!?

Raven Dreamer

6:23 PM

@John Oh, good.

Turns out I just had duplicate variables.

LessPop_MoreFizz

@Mana Perhaps it means that he is the New Blue Blood. The Great White Hope even.

Raven Dreamer

Note to self: Don't create new variables if inheriting from a parent class which already has those variables.

@LessPop_MoreFizz This reminds me of how I used to be carried in the arms of cheerleaders. (ARGH)

Q: How to kill Dr. Magnusson?

Is there some tweak or exploit in Half-Life ep2? I need to see him die. He is so annoying and there is no way to kill a "friendly" npc in this game. Any ideas?

John

6:25 PM

@RavenDreamer That's always fun.

Mana

@LessPop_MoreFizz That was actually the first song I heard by The National, come to think of it.\

LessPop_MoreFizz

@Mana Mine was Secret Meeting

Mana

They quickly became my favorite band ever after that. And then I introduced them to Mr. November and now he's obsessed with them too.

Raven Dreamer

@GraceNote Blah. The Tedious parts of game development are tedious.

Grace Note

That sounds tautological

Anybody up for some Tankball 2? @Mana? @Raven? @GraceNote?

Let's do this bro.

What room?

Mr. November

what the hell is tankball

GnomeSlice

@MrNovember Play it.

Mana

6:33 PM

HEY! :D

GnomeSlice

@Mana you want a room with just us, or a full-ish one?

Mana

full-ish

GnomeSlice

Lets go with room 1 then, probably.

@GnomeSlice It's being Fireball'd ATM.

@MrNovember I know, right? I feel like I'm back in 2000.

GnomeSlice

Anyone who's gonna play, /join 1 and go green team!

@GnomeSlice I will join after my episode of Warehouse 13 is over.

Raven Dreamer

ಠ_ರೃ

League of Legends, or catch up on Warehouse 13. Decisions...

GnomeSlice

Haven't actually watched that show, but I saw the crossover with Eureka.

I don't like Eureka as much any more. =[

I'm in room 53, by the way (SE, get it?).

I wish this game had better controls.

It's got that silly mistake I see lots of places, where if you are rolling backwards, but not holding down reverse, you will turn as if you were moving forwards.

Mana

@RavenDreamer He edited.

> I checked again and those questions were "identify this game", sorry

LessPop_MoreFizz

Uggggh Why did I not start Michael Vick in my BQBL this week. :/

Mana

6:43 PM

I don't think there's anything wrong with him being passive aggressive over this stuff. The game-rec situation is frustrating for them as well as for us.

GnomeSlice

@Mana get in on this room 53 action with @MrNovember and I.

LessPop_MoreFizz

@RavenDreamer That's not passive aggressive, that's just proof that ITG sucks and should be killed with fire, IMO.

A sufficiently vague ITG is indistinguishable from Game-Rec.

Q: How to loot non grounded bodies in World of Warcraft?

For many times I have found myself in the following situation: How can I loot the body when this situation happens? In this case I can't touch it from the ground or from the top of the rock. I can't loot while flying as well. I have tried to jump, but can't loot while jumping... So how to loo...

@LessPop_MoreFizz It was a different comment before. Like I said, he edited it.

Before it was something like

LessPop_MoreFizz

@Mana Either way, the problem is clear.

DOWN WITH ITG.

GnomeSlice

6:47 PM

TankBall 2 has been suggested as an alternate Game On! for those who don't own Killing floor. Once you're in-game, type /join 4 to join our room.

Mana

@LessPop_MoreFizz shhhhhhhh, not yet

LessPop_MoreFizz

because I am too lazy to, but it's the only solution to his problem, and it deserves some salesmanship.

Mr. November

@Mana get in the game!!

GnomeSlice

6:49 PM

No, not that.

ಠ_ಠ

Mana

Why do I have to click on the message in the star list to get access to unpin? Why can't I just do it from the other menu?!?

GnomeSlice

@Mana GET IN THE GAME!

Mana

I am, I am.

GnomeSlice

Room 53

LessPop_MoreFizz

@Mana Umm... I can do it from the other menu.

@Mana (the text doesn't change from 'pin this message', but it means 'unpin this message' if it's already pinned.

Mana

6:52 PM

Oh man, Guardian Angel by Best Pessimist followed by Yeti by Like Bells? Playlist is being generous.

LessPop_MoreFizz

Also can be used to backdoor star your own messages!

Mana

@LessPop_MoreFizz So, this is a lousy equivalent since I can't unpin if I didn't pin it in the first place.

GnomeSlice

@LessPop_MoreFizz Kind of like the favourites text on the site

Can someone add the link to that tankball 2 pinned message, and then also pin it in the Game on Room?

@Mana, so can you add the link, and change the room in that message?

@Mana I said room 4........

So are those of us awesome enough to own Killing Floor going to play TankBall too?

@Mana yes, i was aware.

@LessPopMoreFizz - you don't have to convince me...

GnomeSlice

Right on!

@Mana, I think you're right, that damage is tracked by the server, but it looks like hits are tracked by the client.

And hits = score

@Mana that's not fair to your team.

Mana

My team deserved it, alright?

@RavenDreamer Oh man, maybe it's the lack of capital letters but you sound really angry there.

Powerlord

7:34 PM

I guess I should read the link in the email first.

GnomeSlice

Tankball makes me sad, because it could be SUCH AN AMAZING GAME, but it's just a good game the way they did it.

Powerlord

I see that KF kinda didn't happen today.

Then again, I was away because today was my cousin's 50th birthday.

GnomeSlice

@Powerlord Doesn't sound like many people own it. =[

I could totally see Tankball HD on Steam, with ranks, lobbies, multiple maps, and customizable tank parts/weapons that affect your abilities.

Makes me sad. =[

Powerlord

@GraceNote: When they say electronic receipt, does that mean forwarding the email I received from my selected retailer?

GnomeSlice

Well, Paypal said I need to check my bank account for their deposits to verify it.

That was 3 days ago.

:/

AH! Why was that question about killing Dr. Magnusson removed? I had a reply on it...

Mana

7:39 PM

@GnomeSlice Probably because you told him to go get mental help and he took it seriously.

> You should probably go out to the plains and pour ash onto your head. This is a game and as long as one can separate life from it there are no problems. Thanks for being a smart-a-hole by the way it was fun reading that dumb comment.

GnomeSlice

@Mana =[

@Mana ...plains? Ash?

Wow. That's his fault, not mine.

Mana

It's an interesting expression.

GnomeSlice

I also upvoted it.

John

@GnomeSlice How do I gracefully exit Tankball 2? I tried escape and nothing happened, and chrome crashed when I tried to close the window.

GnomeSlice

@John Yeah, it messes up. It works better if you switch to an empty room first.

@John (Ask on the site).

Mana

7:41 PM

@John The only way I've managed to leave Tankball 2 successfully is by hitting the back button.

In an empty room, though, so maybe that was it.

John

@GnomeSlice "How do I exit Tankball?"?

GnomeSlice

@John 'gracefully'.

@John Or maybe go to a new url

Yeah, it's buggy

=[

Like, I said, it makes me sad.

That would be so much fun, if done correctly.

John

Oooh. I was just invited to a game of AoE3. See y'all in a bit.

@GnomeSlice I guess I might consider that.

Powerlord

I haven't played AOE3 in a while.

John

@Powerlord Me neither before yesterday.

Powerlord

7:43 PM

Then again, I pirated it in the past and haven't played it at all since I actually bought it.

GnomeSlice

We should petition maidmarian to bring their game to another company.

> Tank Ball 2 is a free-to-play 3D RPG RPG Browser Based MMO game.

RPG? Really?

Ronan Forman

You level up. As in you get better at it.

Every game is an RPG!

Arda Xi

So leveling up makes a game an RPG?

Ronan Forman

Most RPG's make you level up.

GnomeSlice

The only difference between Tankballs 1 and 2 seems to be that tankball 2 displays scoring at the top.

Ronan Forman

7:47 PM

Also you play the role of a tank. And it's a game.

GnomeSlice

@Mana, lol, I can't clear the notification in Stacknotify for that reply, because the question is gone.

Let me know if anyone feels like getting back into a Tankball game.

It's fun but you can't really do anything else while playing it.

Q: Do Redeads ever stay dead?

In Ocarina of Time, in the Castle Town Market after you are an adult, the Redeads will jump on you and kill you if you don't either run or kill them. When they die, they collapse on the ground, but unlike other Zelda enemies, they don't disappear. Does this mean they could potentially get back ...

Jesus, first read that question title like 10 minutes ago, and only just realized that it's not "Redheads'.

Arda Xi

> A role-playing game (RPG) is a game in which players assume the roles of characters in a fictional setting. Players take responsibility for acting out these roles within a narrative, either through literal acting, or through a process of structured decision-making or character development.

Ronan Forman

I would but my dad's doing nothing on the PC and would complain if I turned on the other one.

GnomeSlice

Tankball is not an rpg.

@Mana Half-answered your question.

Ronan Forman

You develop from alive to dead?

When it comes up and asks you if you agree to the terms of use, you can say no, and it still sends you into the game.

Q: How do I read TankBall 2's interface?

Whenever I play TankBall 2, I can't help but notice the mysterious numbers at the top left of the screen... I figured out pretty quickly that the red bar with the time in it represents the amount of time remaining in the game, but I can't make heads or tails of the numbers above it. How should...

@GnomeSlice commented

Also added a tag wiki entry for Tankball 2 because why not.

GnomeSlice

I don't even see the interface now

Lol why does it have the one from tankball 1

I'm in Tankball 2

SO BUGGY

@Mana, yeah, I think that's what it is.

Also, the interface doesn't show up until you get shot, or shoot someone.

So the two games are basically identical.

Powerlord

7:55 PM

OK, I just noticed Target's site has an https address, but Chrome is crossing out the https protocol.

I don't think that's a good thing

Arda Xi

@Powerlord You attempted to reach www.target.com, but instead you actually reached a server identifying itself as a248.e.akamai.net. This may be caused by a misconfiguration on the server or by something more serious. An attacker on your network could be trying to get you to visit a fake (and potentially harmful) version of www.target.com. You should not proceed.

GnomeSlice

@Mana Edited

Mana

Oh wow, the red bar represents your health?

For some reason I thought it was the amount of time remaining represented with a visual.

I never paid attention to it. Really obvious now.

GnomeSlice

Lol...

Powerlord

@ArdaXi: Nah, I clicked on the icon next to the https now, and it says there are other elements on the page that are not secure. Images, I assume.
