TravisIn season 8, Who is this Doctor, The Doctor who broke the promise? Is it one of the actors from the 60's series? The Doctor who fought in the time war? Someone else?

@Passerby So...did you actually like Rise of the Lycans?
@AnkitSharma Do you wanna see the new M. Night what's his face movie?

I'm going to go see it tomorrow.
They're also having a Friday the 13th fest at the theater by my work on Friday! Since I will be sleeping at work for the next few days, I am totally going!

@Walt no biggie

@steelersquirrel What?
@steelersquirrel Wut? :'(
@NapoleonWilson OMG! You're still here! Nothing. I was just all excited to tell you that I am now also going to a Friday the 13th fest on Friday!!!
@steelersquirrel Would you please remember that it takes a few minutes before people who are not in the chatroom get an actual notification.
@MannlyMann Weather :(
@steelersquirrel Oh, I see. Cool!
I might prefer the Underworld movie, though.
@NapoleonWilson God. I'm sorry, okay? It showed that you left and I wasn't even serious when I said that :(
01:52
@steelersquirrel Okay, don't worry. ;-)
@NapoleonWilson Well...yeah, but the Friday the 13th movies are just silly fun ;)
@steelersquirrel very mucj
@Passerby You didn't find it a little redundant? I mean, we already knew everything that happened, they just reiterated it. I would have preferred more of a back story on Viktor or William or Marcus
@NapoleonWilson 1-3 are actually pretty good
I've only seen the first one and I found it a little boring.
And Jason X, which was watchable.
02:00
@steelersquirrel evolution was Marcus and Williams backstory. Rise was Viktors
Wuuuuut? They're classics!
And only as redundant as star wars movies. Force was basically a scene by scene re shoot of new hope
@steelersquirrel I know, I know. I'm sorry.
@Passerby I'm talking more about before Viktor was immortal.
Anyway, good night.
02:04
@NapoleonWilson It's all good. They just get silly after #3, but it's still traditional to watch on the 13th. Then, you have the ever awesome Saturday the 14th after that...
Saturday the 14th is a 1981 American horror comedy film starring real-life husband and wife Paula Prentiss and Richard Benjamin, co-written and directed by Howard R. Cohen and produced by Julie Corman. A spoof of classic horror movies, it was followed by Saturday the 14th Strikes Back in 1988. == Plot == An all-American family inherits a deceased uncle's house. John (Richard Benjamin) and Mary (Paula Prentiss), together with daughter Debbie (Kari Michaelsen) and son Billy (Kevin Brando), move in, but Waldemar (Jeffrey Tambor), a vampire, and Yolanda (Nancy Lee Andrews), his wife, want desperately...
@NapoleonWilson Goodnight :'(
02:16
@Passerby Don't get me wrong... I still liked it, I just wanted them to go back more than they did.
Also...why did Viktor wait so long to kill Selene's family in #2? Selene was just a child when Williams cage was being built, but they killed her family when she was the age she is now. The cage was already built. What was Viktor waiting for?
02:36
If that's the case, then Selene would have already been turned by the beginning of #2...because Viktor already would have had the cage ready for William right after his capture...
Wait. No. Selene wasn't born yet. Well...where in the heck was William for like 200 years?

@Randal'Thor I have read that word and you too. I trust null but I don't know how you perform those deletions but now there is no profit in dragging it anymore
@Catija is it me O.o
@Passerby not really. I mean my issue with rise of the loyal and is we already know what will happen, how it will happen etc. And that film gave us nothing which matters for the franchise
@steelersquirrel no idea about it
@Passerby that's why I dislike Star Wars too
@steelersquirrel didn't heard about it either
@AnkitSharma No... But you can fix it.
@NapoleonWilson Not if you change the settings :D I get notifications within a minute or so unless I clear the notice.
03:33
@Catija can't do it from mobile and busy too , will do it later
@steelersquirrel I doubt a castle or secret prison like that was built in a year. But the thing that really convinced Viktor to kill her family was her adult resemblance to his daughter I guess. Also, once again. The sequel decay
@AnkitSharma that's true of any prequel, no?

I don't know.

The cave is situated at an altitude of 3,888 m (12,756 ft), about 141 km (88 mi) from Srinagar, the capital of Jammu and Kashmir and reached through Pahalgam town. The shrine forms an important part of Hinduism, and is considered to be one of the holiest shrines in Hinduism. The cave is surrounded by snowy mountains. The cave itself is covered with snow most of the year except for a short period of time in summer when it is open for pilgrims.

cde is going for the Underworld tag :P
Don't you have to answer like 100 questions to get a badge for an individual tag?
A J
A J
Yep
Well, there is a way to go for an Underworld tag, then...since there are only 10 questions ;)
@steelersquirrel yes and underworld don't even have franchise tag so it's practically not possible now
A J
A J
Not 100 but this number is required to make a tag eligible for awarding
What's a franchise tag?
07:10
@steelersquirrel If a film series have franchise tag then our rule is to add it to all the films in that franchise
But in underworld we have individual tags for each film
So getting 100 question for single film is tough
I thought that the Underworld tag was for all of the films...that's what it says.
A film series where vampires and werewolves called Lycans wage war against each other. The first film was released in 2003.
That's what the tag says ^^
That's why I have been tagging all of my questions with that one.
Even if the question doesn't pertain to the first film...
So...someone can get a badge for "Marvel cinematic universe"?
Okay. Let me see if I understand this...if someone asks a question about Guardians of the Galaxy, they need to tag it with Guardians of the galaxy and MCU?
@steelersquirrel I just meant it's one of those things that can't really be answered... The people involved never really bothered to explain what happened, so it'll all be conjecture.
07:27
@Walt Ahhhh...I see! Well, I have become quite skilled at stalking people on twitter. I can send out a tweet to the people involved :P
@steelersquirrel few people already have, I am sure
I have it too
@steelersquirrel yes
@AnkitSharma Okay...I think I understand. So, isn't the Underworld tag considered a franchise tag the way that it's worded?
@steelersquirrel really O.o, then I missed it, as few question from individual film don't have that tag
@steelersquirrel I though it's first film tag
@AnkitSharma Should I go and add that tag to the other questions?
07:50
So now Underworld is film tag as well as franchise tag O.o
I never stuff like this
If someone go by underworld tag and assuming it to be about first film only , he might encounter a blood wars spoilery question
@steelersquirrel wow, you already did
Anyway what you think about having different franchise tag then first film>
@AnkitSharma Hmmmm...I don't know. It's probably a good idea. I just wouldn't want people to get confused. It makes sense, though since there's a tag for the other films...

Q: Netflix - what has happened to Designated Survivor

JordanI have been watching Designated Survivor since it premiered. I have watched every episode since up until December 14 however this was the last episode uploaded to Netflix. I understand this may have stopped as it's the end of the season but Netflix has listed this series as a weekly series (see...

@AnkitSharma I was just wondering if I should roll back an edit on an ID question that removed a genre tag.
The information provided in the question certainly fits into science fiction, so shouldn't the science fiction tag be used and should have stayed on the question?
18:42
I don't get bothered by gener tag much
Okay. So, it's not worth rolling back an edit for?
No need to flood front page for this small concern

Q: Indian Movie/ Movie about India

Latoya JohnsonMany years ago as a child I saw a movie aired on a local channel that appeared to be Indian in nature. I've have been trying to identify this film as it stood out in my mind. This is what I remember. Two women were married to a wealthy man (maybe a raja). One was in love with him while the other ...

@MovieReel why is this being vtc'd as a recommendation?
@AnkitSharma Okay :)
Argh! I swear to God...this thing is possessed!
@DForck42 I have no idea. I was just going to ask the same thing...
@steelersquirrel lol
@steelersquirrel lol
People need to have higher rep to vtc stuff, imo.

Q: Titanic: The New Evidence

cmpChannel 4 in the U.K. recently released a very good documentary: Titanic: The New Evidence. It revealed (I couldn't believe it), how there was a fire onboard the Titanic for three weeks, up until it sank. A photo album was found at an auction house which revealed real life photos taken from an ...

@steelersquirrel they need 3k
@steelersquirrel we only have 92 users that can vtc
of those, only 88 have logged in within the last year
68 since the beginning of the year
Gheez. You only need 3k?
And you need 20k to create a wiki tag without being peer reviewed? OMG. That just does not make sense.

A: How did Selene get pregnant?

amaranthAccording to Selene's narration in Underworld: Blood Wars, Selene was unknowingly pregnant with Eve when Selene was captured. She must have only recently become pregnant, because she did not yet know about her daughter. The time gap between Underworld: Evolution and Underworld: Awakening is too ...

@AnkitSharma Amaranth answered a question!!! ^^
So.. I feel a little compelled to interject here, being that I am "implicated" by being in the wet-behind-the-ears-just-over-3k category. So what is someone like me to do? Wait? The architects saw fit to allow me to become active at 500 rep and more so at 3k. Isn't that how one learns? Am I in a vacuum, or can more experienced rep guys "intervene" and vote the other way to keep it right?
@John No, no, no. You're not being implicated at all. I have been complaining for a few months now that certain users have itchy trigger fingers on voting to close questions. Practically all ID even if there is sufficient information, calling questions recommendations or calling a question opinion based when it's really not. Just like the one that @DForck42 and I were talking about earlier. What's worse is that one close vote goes on it and then others seem to just follow suit.
@steelersquirrel Thank you for clarifying. You are one of my many favorite people here.
@John it's all your fault john, everything that's wrong with movies.se ;-)
@DForck42 Thanks for the smile. I needed that.
20:41
but anyway, yeah the real issue is that some people will vtc a question just cause someone else vtc'd the question
2
OK
And...I am still wet behind the ears. I skip most of the close votes unless it's in black and white on why it needs to be closed. If you are ever unsure, just come in to chat and ask or just skip it in the review que. You are an extremely valued member of the community @John and you have shown to be fair minded and you are willing to ask questions and learn...which is awesome :)
this is why the review queues have audits
but we're not big enough to trigger those audits, I think
@steelersquirrel Thanks again.
@John Awwwww. Thank you so much! That is greatly appreciated :)
20:43
@John :-D
but, because we know people tend to bandwagon, that's why it requires 5 vtc's to close
but it can also be voted to reopen
But the question that triggered this debate is on the borderline. It does smack of current events, and trivia.
There seem to be the same 2-3 people that are bandwaggoning...
And I agree about all the other mechanisms for fairness.
I also edited the question some to make it a little clearer and steer it away from the current affairs part
That is exactly what @NapoleonWilson did to save that Forrest Gump question that ended up on the HNQ list.
I was going to edit the question and vote to reopen it if it did get closed.
20:46
Which question are you guys talking about?
@steelersquirrel designated survivor hiatus
The Q about whether Forrest is the biological dad of Little Forrest.
or that one
Or both
Yes, the hiatus Q is on the borderline of current events and trivia.
Ahhhhh...
20:48
So I should have stayed clear of it. I am learning. Thanks for that.
@John yeah, it's not a great question, bu ti also think it deserves to be closed
@John Hey...I am still learning ;) Everyone around here is extremely helpful. If you ever are second guessing something, please don't hesitate to ask :)
I am for helping people get information. So I am glad you answered it. But the off-topic page is what we are "duty bound" to go by it.
@steelersquirrel You are right of course.
That is why I interjected.
@John yeah, off-topic's a bit fuzzy
if the question had been worded differently, such as "when is blah coming back" it'd be vtc cause trivia
but it seemed the person honestly didn't understand that the show was on hiatus, hence my answer
@DForck42 You are right. Again, I am glad you answered it.
Now if it is closed the asker got the answer.
20:51
@DForck42 Do you think that a meta post reminding the community of the guidelines for voting to close would maybe get these few users back on track with their itchy trigger fingers on voting to close and bandwaggoning?

@steelersquirrel to be completely honest, no
Hmmmm...okay :)

Isn't there a way to reiterate the guidelines for voting to close?

@AnkitSharma Are you going to apologise for calling me a liar to my face when my claim has now been independently verified and you accept it was true? I don't appreciate you making it sound as though I'm involved in some kind of cover-up, when all I'm trying to do is find out exactly what your issue is so that we can resolve it.
I spent some time hunting through old Mos transcripts for the word "troll". Could it be that this was the message which offended you so much?
in Mos Eisley, Aug 27 '16 at 20:19, by Adamant
@AnkitSharma Go ahead. But keep in mind that ID trolling has been received poorly in the past.

@DForck42 Review audits are strange. They're not 'triggered' by a site being of a certain size; they have to be manually added, presumably after a request from mods/community to SE. Currently the sites with audits are 6-7 of the biggest SE sites ... and Puzzling. Although they should soon be gone on Puzzling, thanks to me.
