@HyperNeutrino Nahhhhh
 
repin defense message?
 
7' dies: PANGA. (There's a semi-well-known Mario Maker streamer who calls himself PangaeaPanga.)
 
I didn't know PANGA. whee TIL
 
Is 6 also Pacman?
 
@Pavel ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ if you weren't there for it (and didn't see the starboard the following two days) it might be undair :P
 
11:00 PM
oh I would have had that if I remembered what Gondwana was
 
Two whole days.
 
Panga is pretty great
 
1. Elephant, e.g.
 
contact 1
 
contact 1
 
11:00 PM
6 is PACMAN
 
"semi-well-known Mario Maker streamer" makes me chuckle because I don't even know what Mario Maker is
 
I know Panga but I'd never make that connection
 
2: Hoarder
 
contact 1
 
@Rubio yeah, he's known for making ridiculously hard levels that take over 30 hours of attempts to beat
 
11:01 PM
contact 2
 
@MorganG Mario level editor, basically.
 
31: walk
 
2: Pack-rat?
 
e.g. P-break, U-break
 
31: Pace
 
11:01 PM
he also beat super mario world blindfolded, if I remember correctly
 
yep, it was pace
 
2: ✔
 
ok you are all nerds
(says the girl whose avatar is a photo of her at comiccon) [thanks for grammar correction] [sorry for off-topic] (I CAN'T SPELL THOUGH)
 
that is a true statement
 
11:02 PM
(It's worth pointing out that you have to solve your own level before you can publish it on Mario Maker)
 
@MorganG "grammar" not "grammer" :P ok I'll stop :P
 
two 31's!
 
@micsthepick one was resolved IIRC
 
Both were
 
3: Makes good ammo in Alaska?
 
11:03 PM
@HyperNeutrino no, it's perfectly fine to use "them" as a gender-neutral singular pronoun
 
32: Don't turn this off or someone dies
 
@Deusovi Technically it's wrong.
 
although antiquated guides may disagree
 
@Deusovi Then it should be "the person" IMO, because the gender should be consistent.
 
contact 32
 
11:03 PM
contact 32
 
but anyway off topic :P
 
Contact 32

contact 32
 
Perdue specifies that if a gender-neutral singular pronoun is absolutely required, 'ey' should be used, which is stupid.

anyone else want to get on this bandwagon?
 
I want to but I don't get it.
 
contact 32
 
Uhhhhhh
 
contact 32
 
11:04 PM
@Pavel "Technically" according only to uptight guides. It's been used since the 1700s.
 
32: Pacifism?
 
wowie that's 8 contacts on 32
32: not Pacifism
 
50. A technique in gerrymandering
 
@HyperNeutrino English has no gendered words (like, say, Spanish). "girl" implies a female gender semantically, but has no grammatical gender, so it's perfectly fine to use it with "they".
contact 50
 
contact 50
 
11:05 PM
Pass 32
 
@Deusovi Huh okay. :P
 
I am about to feel like a moron.
 
pacemaker
 
Yes, you are.
PACEMAKER
 
Pacemaker!
 
11:05 PM
hehe
 
32: Pacemaker
 
Dammit
 
I think it's pacemaker, what do you all think?
 
I think it's pacemaker
 
I agreed

11:06 PM

41': Package Manager
 
contact 41'?
 
was 41 package?
 
41' is not PACKAGE MANAGER
 
@HyperNeutrino ^^
 
11:07 PM
what about 41
 
41: package
 
uncontact 41'
 
Pavel defending PACKAGE
 
beaten to it!
 
11:08 PM
gg
 
Well, I'm off to try to make NuGet work again.
 
50 was packing
 
41'?
 
@Rubio what was 3?
 
3 was PACKING SNOW
 
11:09 PM
I don't get the ammo part
 
o_o
 
snowballs?
 
oh ammo, snowballs
 
ohh
 
and I'll let someone else provide 41' hehe
 
11:09 PM
working with NuGet is a lot easier if you mispronounce it as "nugget" instead
 
41' - was that also PACKAGE?
 
then you can laugh and think about food
 
if it was
 
(referring to physical importing rather than import)
 
41' was not PACKAGE
 
11:09 PM
I assuming 41' was packaging
 
it was in fact PACKING PEANUTS
 
ಠ_ಠ :P
 
ah. I was going to clue that but I wouldn't really say you do it "in packing peanuts", more "surrounded by them"
 
@ffao Could not find namespace 'System'. Would you like to look up 'System' on NuGet?
 
Hyper, you're up if you want to
 
11:10 PM
o cool
 
I make my "?"s do heavy lifting. ;)
 
I actually had that error today.
 
Computer programs and physical objects are seperate things, blah, blah
 
See, then you think about looking for System in a nugget and it gets even sillier
 
but 41 can be non computer anyway
 
11:11 PM
protip
 
I guess
 
HyperNeutrino defending C
 
notjagan was first to clue PACKAGE btw.
oh wait nvm. they weren't.
 
wait what
 
@micsthepick what, they are? so that's why eating USB drives isn't letting me sort things faster. good to know
 
11:11 PM
notjagan was first to guess
 
notjagan clued PACKING. my error. :)
 
$ dotnet new console
$ dotnet run
There were compiler errors.
Error: The namespace `System` could not be found. Are you missing an assembly reference?

11:14 PM
oh lol

not correct either
 
aw :( :P
[pass 1]
 
I'm going to retract the clue though because it didn't work as intended...
 
1 complain
oh come on
 
11:15 PM
It was supposed to be "chastise", since I didn't bold the clue
 
ah. well. VTC: Too Broad. :)
 
20: notably slow
 
I accept that fate for the clue. it was fun to try; it didn't work out fairly
 
already have an 8

sorry
 
[pass 12]
 
it's hard to keep track of the numbers sometimes

12: CASCADING (neural network), I think
 
11:17 PM

I figured it was a neural network but I didn't know what the word needed was :P
 
notijagan got it
 
was it cascading or convolutional?
 
ah, alright
 
oh ok

contact 1
 
@ppperry oh c'mon :(
 
what
 
contact 5
i'm slow today
 
contact 5, I'm dumb
 
first off, there aren't very many programming languages in which all even-length programs do the same thing
 
11:21 PM
I
again!
I'm not sure how there can be a word for 5
 
not slower than the people who didn't get 5 at all
 
yeah well I have not even heard of a programming language that has anything to do with program length ;_;
@ffao like me! :D :(
 
@HyperNeutrino You what
@ppperry squints I should know this one
 
@ASCII-only unless it's unary :( but it isn't
 
11:23 PM
@ppperry contact
 
60. Could be (and successfully was) being open with secrets
61. ...
 
@HyperNeutrino Not lenguage either :P
 
Contact 60, 61
 
61 == 2'?
 
Contact 22 that is
 
11:23 PM
(Gonna be busy in a bit though)
 
I don't think even PHP would say 61 == 2'
 
they have different contexts Hyper
 
@HyperNeutrino :| of course not
 
@ffao lol
 
11:24 PM
It might. You never know with PHP.
 
well, I technically made an error in clue 22
it should be "what all even-length terminating programs that don't error do ..."
 
after all strtotime of "00-00-00 00:00:00" in PHP returns "1999-11-30"
 
but that "makes sense". (for some reason.) (to the devs.) (and nobody else.)
 
7. Furniture for political leaders
 
11:25 PM
@ppperry I'm sure I've got it

11:26 PM
@DJMcMayhem?
 
@ppperry Cat
 
rubio
we just passed.
 
yep
 
And the language is stackcats
 
@DJMcMayhem that would have been my wild guess :D
 
welp.
 
HyperNeutrino defending C A T
ironic huh
 
I hate when good clues die because of obscure references :/
 
indeed.
 
11:28 PM
5 dies, right?
 
3 dies, (Irish) CAR BOMB
 
4,6 die: card captor
 
1 dies, what was it folks?
 
CAT CALL
 
CATCALL?
 
11:28 PM
60, 61, 5, 2' all die
guesses?
 
1 was not CAT CALL
 
I didn't think of Sakura at all on 4 and 6
 
or it wouldn't be dead
 
@ffao you'll have to explain that one. I thought the 4 was "cute"
 
this is true
 
11:29 PM
my guess would have been cargo, for no particular reason
 
@MorganG that wouldn't fit CA
 
2' was CALCIUM
 
@ffao yeah, I wouldn't've gotten that one, even though I know of the anime
 
Wow, I am slow on the letters today
 
11:29 PM
5 was CASTE
 
@Rubio of course it was
@Rubio and that's also correct!
 
rip I would have never gotten 5 :( :P
 
60/61 I dunno, but @Sp3000 did?
 
oh I just thought 5 was CAR
 
(I actually mispronounced CHASTE in my head to rhyme with CASTE until yesterday.)
 
11:30 PM
wow PPCG has been inactive for half an hour
 
@notjagan CAR, CHAR rhyme.
 
oh wait, I'm incredibly dumb
 
7 dies, CABINET (I think I plagiarized that one from Deus' Cryptic Clue guide)
 
I didn't read 5 correctly
 
wait no, CHAR has a soft CH
 
11:30 PM
60, 61 would be CANDID CAMERA
 
yes. they still rhyme
 
oh never mind, it's vowels
 
@Sp3000 that's correct!
 
I'm still dumb
 
oh. that makes sense.
1 btw was CALLIPYGIAN, a wonderful word
and it means, well, nice butt
 
11:31 PM
... I know that word, but recalling it is a different matter
 
I know the word but that would not have been my first guess
 
That's a phenomenal word

35 umm
 
no, 35 is not umm if that's what your guessing
 
lol. obviously not. I think that falls under the heading of something the defender is hopelessly unable to guess. (Of course, I doubt anyone else can get it either, so it's somewhat moot.)
