@GnomeSlice All you need is one upvote. As long as you post something coherent, and you're not talking out of your ass, chances are good you'll get one.
 
@fbueckert Maybe, maybe not. I guess if you're 1 rep you're under more scrutiny, because people don't even look at some of my questions, ever.
Actually, I'm not going to spam all of my 0 score answers.

A: What is a good zombie clearing strategy in Die2nite?

GnomeSliceIf you want to keep your map as clear as possible, the Plumbing construction is essential. This allows you to refill water-based weaponry for free! As long as you have a few waterguns, your townsfolk will become extremely effective zombie-melting machines. Of note is also that in my longest ru...

 
I have 11 questions asked. One has zero score, because it was a dupe.
 
@fbueckert I don't see how this refutes all of my lack of votes/rep.

@GnomeSlice All you need is one upvote. As long as you post something coherent, and you're not talking out of your ass, chances are good you'll get one.
 
@fbueckert Just a sec.
 
5:07 AM
@GnomeSlice Is that from your questions?
 
@fbueckert Answers.
 
@GnomeSlice Are you a 1 rep user?
 
@fbueckert Is that relevant?
 
20 mins ago, by fbueckert
Anyone who posts a good answer doesn't stay a 1 rep user for long.
 
My point is that writing decent posts doesn't guarantee you any rep most of the time.
@fbueckert I could have answered only those twelve posts and still be a 1 rep user.
 
5:09 AM
@GnomeSlice If you want to prove a point, go find a 1 rep user who wrote something decent, and point that out to me.
 
@GnomeSlice 16
 
@Fluttershy ...I count 12 in that image.
 
@GnomeSlice 16 rep
One answer is accepted
 
@Fluttershy Oh. Right.

A: Do I need a online code for my skylanders in order to use them on my 3ds?

Picnic ButtonIt looks like you do need an activation code in order to play online in Skylanders Universe see here. I'm not sure if codes can be re-used, so you're probably be better off buying codes for online play firsthand. However, there are a bunch of other Skylanders games, none of which support online...

Fuck, that was my go-to new user for complaining, but he has no 0 score posts any more.

Why am I bothering?
 
5:11 AM
@fbueckert With?
 
@Gnome, it's offical. You and arguments don't get along.
 
My point is that writing good content does not guarantee you any votes or rep of any kind.
Writing okay content about popular games does, though.
Which is STUPIDOSHGLVEIVRHJE;JORVNE;OIBTE
 
I'm done. You're not refuting my point, and you still haven't followed the one example I gave that might do so.
 
user15026
@gnomeslice supply, demand, popularity.
 
@AshleyNunn Correct.
@fbueckert Which?
 
user15026
5:13 AM
@gnomeslice doesn't mean you can't do well with obscure stuff though.
 
@AshleyNunn It has to be funny or something.

Q: How Many Different Ways Can I Kill Raptors?

GnomeSliceSo I'm playing the web version of Raptor Safari, and it dawns on me that I've been slaughtering raptors in a large variety of different ways, all of which have been generating different amounts of score. Which brings me to the question: Does anyone have a complete list of all of the different w...

 
user15026
@gnomeslice I disagree. I have asked a lot of obscure stuff and earned a lot of rep that way. Same with answers.
 
I really need to finish this assignment tonight, but I'm so wiped...
@AshleyNunn Like what?
 
user15026
Like for most of what I play. I can't get examples (on mobile, sick, and it is late) but trust me, I made it to 14k and I play very few AAA titles.
 
@AshleyNunn You ask a lot about popular mobile games and things though. Also, I don't know.

Q: What do the little Egyptian men mean?

Ashley NunnI noticed that when I have visitors in my pyramid, they sometimes have little Egyptian men that appear over their heads. This happens mostly when they are looking at my murals. What do those little men mean?

 
Maybe people just actively avoid my posts now.
 
Kairosoft games aren't that popular.
 
@fbueckert Earthbound is hardly obscure
 
Except for Game Dev Story.
Oh, right. That's Earthbound. My bad.
 
@fbueckert Any mobile developer with one very popular game will get a decent amount of exposure for all of their games.
 
user15026
5:19 AM
Yeah, my Kairo stuff, most Android stuff, a lot of the older games I play
 
user15026
@gnomeslice exposure doesn't always equal votes.
 
@AshleyNunn 'Popularity', then.
 
@GnomeSlice Really? Most Kairosoft questions/answers here get 1 or 2 upvotes.
Me, and @AshleyNunn.
 
user15026
Yep. That's about it.
 
@fbueckert That's more than a bunch of mine. But I thought the Kairo games were doing better than that here.
Huh
 
user15026
5:20 AM
@gnomeslice nope.
 
How many views are they getting?
 
user15026
Most stuff I post gets 1 or two votes.
 
user15026
Not enough for badges for the most part. With a couple exceptions.
 
Oh my goodness, the new Google Doodle is awesome.
Maybe I'm just different, I don't know.
I don't seem to get along very well with stackexchange. =[

A: Are these two questions "similar"/"duplicates"?

GnomeSliceNope. We don't dupe posts based on the answers. The mod you linked to can probably be used to solve both questions, but that doesn't change the fact that what is being asked in one of them is in no way related to what is being asked in the other.

wat
While I agree that the questions are not dupes, your reasoning makes no sense.
> what is being asked in one of them is in no way related to what is being asked in the other.
They are absolutely related.
 
5:30 AM
@OrigamiRobot I'm not good at explaining myself
Edit it for me.
 
@GnomeSlice So you want me to change everything except "Nope"
 
I'm getting worse too, I used to post on meta more and stuff and now I can't even do that.
@OrigamiRobot Yeah, I guess.
@OrigamiRobot Just post a new answer, I'll delete mine.
Deleted.
 
@GnomeSlice I rest my case
 
@fbueckert Seems okay to me...
 
5:33 AM
Not really knowing about CS, I'd say the reason they are not dupes is that one is asking how to do X and the other is asking how to further limit the application of X
Could they comfortably be one question? Probably.
But they are different.
 
@fbueckert This is not off topic, and it's a real question.
@OrigamiRobot They're asking how to use X to do two different things (but similar I guess)
 
@GnomeSlice Seriously. I'm done. Arguing with you is like poking the Pillsbury Doughboy.
 
anyway, make an answer.
 
user15026
@gnomeslice how does it relate to games?
 
@fbueckert What?
 
user15026
5:35 AM
@fbueckert with less cute giggles.
 
@AshleyNunn He wants to know how to retrieve his Draw Something account... how does that not relate to games? =[
 
@AshleyNunn That would make up for some of the frustration, actually.
 
@GnomeSlice No, one is how to do X and the other is how to use X in Y context.
 
@OrigamiRobot Whatever, my answer was dumb.
Why does the post still say '1 answer' even though I deleted mine
 
user15026
@fbueckert this is true.
 
5:37 AM
FOCUSSSSS
@OrigamiRobot Are you going to answer it or what
 
@GnomeSlice I just clicked submit, jeez.
 
Now let's see if yours gets the same downvote as mine
Who wants to take bets.
@OrigamiRobot And he accepted it.
Good work team.
 
@AshleyNunn Random FYI, looks like only 5.6% of users go more than a week without getting an up vote, and only 4% go more than 30 days without one (sleep deprivation-induced mistakes with my query not withstanding).
 
Fuck that

@TimStone Ooh, ooh, search for me.
 
user15026
@timstone that doesn't surprise me. :) good to have facts though!

Query says (and your reputation history confirms) that your first up vote was received less than a day from posting (on your first post, incidentally).

@OrigamiRobot lguitkvhebheilrsvilsebivrekbjlrvlesiurjesrivbje.ktfd
 
Bless you.
 
@OrigamiRobot Fun fact: Hiccuping and sneezing at the same time hurts.
 
user15026
@timstone I like that you can make stuff to find this out. It fascinates me
 
user15026
@fbueckert oh lord it does.
 
5:46 AM
@fbueckert I have experienced such horrors.
 
@AshleyNunn Yeah, I'm not terrible surprised either, but now we can say that we used maths...or something!
 
Coughing and hiccuping also hurts.
 
@AshleyNunn But he can't make soundcloud onebox @TimStone.
 
@OrigamiRobot Happily, that I haven't experienced.
 
5:47 AM
@AshleyNunn I like it less that I let myself get distracted from doing work to write the query, but minor details ;)
 
The human body does not respond well to simultaneous intake and outtake.

Q: How can I recover my password?

ZoyaI forgot my password because last year my iPad got locked, and my brother had to reset it. That erased the game, and I have since forgotten my password. Is there any way for me to retrieve it?

 
Of course, being a robot, I wouldn't know personally...
 
@Ullallulloo I want to playyyy thisssssss
 
5:47 AM
@OrigamiRobot Especially when they're simultaneous.
 
user15026
@origamirobot do you have controls in place to avoid such incidents?
 
@OrigamiRobot is your answer really much better than mine was
 
Are you asking me?
 
user15026
Hiccuping then swallowing a cough drops whole then sneezing which forces it back up is also terrible. That happened to me today.
 
@GnomeSlice Well, even if I do there's no guarantee that it'd be implemented. :P But yes, I've been unintentionally putting that off because of todo-list overload. Cross some fingers and maybe I'll get lucky and suddenly feel super productive.
 
5:49 AM
A burp/hiccup is the worst methinks.
 
@TimStone I'm just joking around man, I know you only offered to do it as a side thing
 
Anyways, I overslept this morning, so I'm thinking going to bed on time/slightly early is a good thing.
 
user15026
@origamirobot yes those are also terrible.
 
@fbueckert Ugh, that makes me sleep in later.
 
@AshleyNunn That sounds worse than sneezing/hiccuping.
 
5:50 AM
@GnomeSlice I could probably mail you a DVD of it if your internet and computer could handle it.
 
@GnomeSlice Oh, I know. But I'm annoyed with myself for having so many pending things, so trying to provoke myself into action.
 
user15026
@fbueckert I thought I was going to die. It was awful.
 
@Ullallulloo My PC definitely could. Internet... possibly. I won't be able to play for a while anyway; school.
 
Any plan I have to get more sleep invariably makes me more tired in the morning.
 
Unlike most of you schlubs, I'm a morning person. snob
 
5:51 AM
@OrigamiRobot The longer I sleep, the harder it is for me to get up. To a point anyway
 
user15026
@fbueckert I would be if I wasn't sick!
 
@GnomeSlice ah, yeah.
 
I keep fooling myself into thinking that if I go to sleep when I start to get tired, I'll be willing to wake up earlier to finish what I was working on. This is a blatant lie, and I am not to be trusted.
 
@AshleyNunn Keyword: most.
 
@fbueckert In the morning, I am the grumpiest grumpus ever to grump.
 
5:53 AM
@OrigamiRobot There's a relevant BONE reference, but I can't find it online anywhere.
 
user15026
Okay. Sick Me is attempting sleep, take a million here goes.
 
Annnnnd....ACTION! Good luck, and g'night.
Hmm, what was I working on...
 
Oh wow, today's episode of Witness is about Roe v. Wade
 
@TimStone Soundcloud oneboxing.
 
I used to watch TV or listen to music when I went to sleep. I can't do that anymore because I will wake up a couple hours later and be furious that there is noise.
 
5:55 AM
Definitely.
 
Ah, of course. :P
 
@OrigamiRobot Get a clock radio with a sleep timer.
 
@GnomeSlice Too much work.
 
@OrigamiRobot Get a phone app with a sleep timer.
 
@GnomeSlice I keep my phone at my desk at night so it can charge.
 
5:56 AM
@OrigamiRobot Get a thing you can plug it into.
 
Also, music sounds awful through the phone speaker.
 
@OrigamiRobot Get something you can plug it into. Like a set of speakers
 
1 min ago, by OrigamiRobot
@GnomeSlice Too much work.
 
I often listen to Nodebeat at night.
 
@TimStone Not too hard, I think. Just grab developers.soundcloud.com/docs/api/reference#tracks and format it like Vimeo videos
 
5:58 AM
Godammit paypal, YOU'RE an error.
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Yeah, I just have time management issues. >:/
 
I don't understand why this is getting close votes. — GnomeSlice 23 mins ago
 
The problem is, Soundcloud URLs appear as https://soundcloud.com/killparis/anita-baker-ring-my-bell-kill
 
I cast the NARQ vote before the edit, but I have no idea why it's getting off-topic votes.
 
But the API only seem to take a ID, which doesn't appear to be available in the URL
@OrigamiRobot Might be the people who want the OP to go to Draw Something support instead of asking here
The question was barely intelligible before the edit though, yes
 
6:01 AM
What it should be closed as is a dupe of this:
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone They have a /resolve route that you can use

Q: How can I log into Draw Something if I have forgotten my username and email?

SonnyI logged out of the game and now I lost my account but I do remember my email and username. I don't remember putting in a password when I originally started off. How can I recover my account?

 
@TimStone Yeah, I just saw that
Should be simple then
Although two request is slightly more complex than one to make
 
Well, this is dumb.
 
Does Ajax requests follow through 302 redirects automatically?
 
6:02 AM
Believe so
 
I was supposed to get a calendar of pretty girls for $0.01. But they didn't mention the shipping fees, so I just paid $15 for a physical calendar that I'm now going to have to explain to my parents.
Fucking internet.
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone It should
 
One request, then. Sounds simple enough :P
Now we just need a Soundcloud account
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone I have one
I want my fucking money baaaccckkkk
WHY DO WOMEN ALWAYS TAKE YOUR MONEY
 
@GnomeSlice I can look at pretty girls for free. I don't even have to bother looking at months or anything.
<3 Souffle Girl
 
6:05 AM
@OrigamiRobot <3 Oswin Oswald
@GnomeSlice Go here: soundcloud.com/you/apps, sign up for a API key
 
@OrigamiRobot I thought it was like a digital calendar.
@YiJiang'sEvilClone You want me to register a new app?
 
Yup
Unless @TimStone already have one
 
Name?
 
(I don't)
 
@GnomeSlice Even worse. All you have to do is google "Jenna-Louise Coleman" or "Emma Stone" or "Bruce Willis" or any number of other names.
 
6:09 AM
@OrigamiRobot Oh, I have lots of names, trust me.
But hey, it was one cent.
 
StackExchangeScripts would do
 
This is going to be hard to explain to my parents when it arrives...
 
@GnomeSlice A penny saved is a penny earned.
 
@OrigamiRobot It's always a Good Day to Die Hard.
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Ugh, I have to fill in a bunch of stuff. Why don't you just make an SC account.
I dunno any of this stuff.
 
6:10 AM
@GnomeSlice You're 20 aren't you? Why do they care if you have a lady calendar?
 
@OrigamiRobot I don't have any income lol
And it just cost me $15 I didn't want to spend.
Also, because they think I'm retarded.
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Technically I was supposed to prototype a native implementation for his feature request, but we can prototype the prototype with a userscript oneboxer. :P
 
Again, why do they care?
Also, you can probably cancel it.
 
@OrigamiRobot It completed immediately.
I emailed them.
I am so dumb.
WRONG STAR BITCH
 
Starring that was too easy, so I figured I'd go with the next best thing.
 
6:13 AM
@TimStone Do you have a SoundCloud account? I don't really want to tie this to mine, there's liability of some kind or something, and a bunch of scary text boxes.
 
5 mins ago, by Tim Stone
(I don't)
 
Argh, okay just a sec
 
But that's fine, I can look at it later.
 
what do I do, what do I do
 
(Well, I wasn't going to look at it now either, I don't know what @YiJiang'sEvilClone is up to :P)
 
6:14 AM
I guess their real plan is to get people to buy calendars accidentally. tempe12.com
Whatever
They're college girls, they must be broke.
 
@TimStone You want me to write the script? Sure
 
'Chicks With Picks' is a really, really bad post name.
Terrible.
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Only if you want, of course. Otherwise I'll certainly do it when I can find time.
 
Shouldn't be too hard
Just copy and paste the Vimeo code and modify it
 
I'm not going to finish this stupid fucking type assignment, I've been here for hours with no progress.
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Does vimeo onebox now?
 
6:17 AM
@GnomeSlice If you use the script, yes
 
If you use the script, type /ob + the Vimeo URL
 
That video was deleted anyway.
Hang on
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Okay, what?
rvhelbiuebejrdf
 
Oh yeah, the README... >_>;
adds another item to the todo list
 
6:21 AM
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Aaaaahahrhrhghghghgh
This is hard.
What's the point if it only oneboxes for me, then
I don't get it
 
It oneboxes for everyone, like you see up there
 
Whoa, what the hell, I can see message numbers now
 
It's not a real onebox, but it does give you the art and the title, formatted nicely
 
[▶ Watch Modigs-Turquoise [Official Music Video HD] by renderhell on Vimeo](vimeo.com/45381615)
Except it trips the spam alert lol
Also, mine didn't work
 
Yeah, they changed the timeout
 
6:23 AM
I suck at this
My link is busted
 
The extra square brackets might need escaping
 
What
 
[▶ Watch Modigs-Turquoise [Official Music Video HD] by renderhell on Vimeo](vimeo.com/45381615)
 
Yeah, and I'll write up C# code for a native onebox later to add to your feature request.
 
@TimStone ...So you can just copy and paste it like youtube?
 
6:24 AM
Extra square brackets in the link
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone I've got a thing for this in the comment script.
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Oh. Ah...
 
@GnomeSlice Right, assuming they could be convinced to use it.
 
No, won't work. I guess it's a MarkdownMini limitation?
 
Oh right
Yes.
 
6:25 AM
@TimStone SE puts their podcasts on SoundCloud, so I don't see why not.
 
Good point
 
This stupid fucking calendar is getting me all worked up
Or maybe it's my schoolwork
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Oh, no, I lied. You can't escape slashes, but you should be able to \[
Your message up there's missing the scheme in the link, which is a no-go for the regex
 
Hmmm, that didn't work for me, weird
Oh, right
Missing protocol
 
I was going to spend that money on a gaaaaaaaaaaame
fucking shit fuck
This is hilarious
I need to try this
 
6:44 AM
Oh, I'm an idiot
The Soundcloud API doesn't support JSONP
@TimStone I don't think there's a way around it
Unless you want to use GM_* functions
 
It supports CORS
But they might do that annoying thing where you have to register the domain as part of the app.
 
Does it? I don't see anything in the documentation
 
@TimStone Looks like they do
 
Yeah, I see...
Wait, they do support JSONP
 
...Oh, heh. Didn't read past the first box apparently. :P
 
6:59 AM
Okay, done. Only individual tracks are supported for now. If you want playlist support, just tell me (though looking at chat history I don't see any links to playlists)
The waveform image sucks, but it's only shown if the track doesn't have artwork
@TimStone Ugh, the same thing as yesterday - 404 errors when trying to submit the edit.
What is wrong with GitHub
 
What a shitty night.
@YiJiang'sEvilClone It says the domain soundcloud.com doesn't have onebox support
 
@GnomeSlice No, not yet. The script isn't updated yet.
 
Oh.
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone That's obnoxious. shakes fist at GitHub
I've only used the editor once or twice, but based on the errors I saw earlier there was something fairly wrong going on there.
 
There is no way in hell I'm finishing this tonight.
And I want my money back
ლ(ಥ益ಥლ)
 
7:13 AM
I sent a support case to GitHub support. Let's hope this would resolve the issue
 
Just put it on dropbox or something.
 
It should replace the previously installed one
I think?
 
If it's placed in the same location
 
@TimStone Does it do that on Chrome?
 
7:17 AM
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Well, Chrome makes you download it first now because it's stupid |:
 
Oh, right
Hmm, Firefox doesn't replace the previous one
 
Chrome did
 
You might need to uninstall the previous one
I thought it should, since there's namespacing and all that, but apparently not
 
They must come from the same URL then
 
7:19 AM
Appears to be working for me.
I guess it just overwrote it
 
As long as you don't have two copies installed, that might cause Bad Things to happen.
Anyway, nicely done @YiJiang, thanks!
 
Don't think so
Yeah, @YiJiang'sEvilClone this is cool.
 
I'll look into the whole native prototype business when I'm able.
 
If you don't see two sets of time and ID on the right when you refresh the page, you're good
 
(then respond to the feature request accordingly)
 
7:20 AM
Does it work on sets?
 
No, only tracks
 
Nope.
 
An actual server side onebox would be much more complex because you'd want to embed a player too
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Why? Youtube onebox doesn't embed a player.
Hey, why did that not show the image.
 
@GnomeSlice Well, I think a player might be preferable. I don't know.
 
7:22 AM
Yeah, a player would be status-declined, but a more structured onebox with static image and link would be alright.
 
@YiJiang'sEvilClone Why not just like that? ^

Q: Chat oneboxing support for Soundcloud?

GnomeSliceThis is a bit of a silly request, but since SE has recently been posting their Podcasts on soundcloud, I feel like I now have a legitimate reason to bring this up. Would implementing oneboxing support (a la facebook) for SoundCloud tracks be quite difficult? Basically, similar to the way Wikiped...

I took the time to photoshop a decent (in my opinion) image
