@OrigamiRobot I've still never actually built an EDH deck, but the format sounds fun to me.

StrixVaria

I looked through my cards, and the only legend I have even approaching interesting enough for an EDH deck is Crosis, the Purger.

OrigamiRobot

Also, @StrixVaria, I will be glad to take any GTC shocklands off your hands.

StrixVaria

@OrigamiRobot I got another Hallowed Fountain on Friday.

OrigamiRobot

@StrixVaria I want to build a deck out of Lazav.

StrixVaria

6:01 PM

Someone wanted to trade me for it but I didn't know enough about what I want to build to come up with an offer.

OrigamiRobot

I already have 6 hallowed fountains.

FAE

@StrixVaria I am always wary about trading with people I don't know because I have a terrible sense of economy and worth.

OrigamiRobot

@FAE There is an app for prices.

StrixVaria

@FAE @OrigamiRobot told me about an app for my phone that tells you card values on the spot.

I traded Slaughter Games for Corpsejack Menace because hate cards are boring and BG is fun.

I lost like $.30 on the trade, apparently, but whatever.

OrigamiRobot

@StrixVaria I'm trying to get rid of a Thundermaw Hellkite. It's at $40 I think. I might just sell it on ebay.

GnomeSlice

@FAE My cards are mine

OrigamiRobot

@GnomeSlice Trading is one of the most fun parts.

No

I hate trading.

Then my cards aren't all in the same condition and I miss my old ones.

Q: How can I skip skinning/looting animations in Far Cry 3?

Aside from dancing around dead bodies in an attempt to find the proper pointing spot for "Press E to skin", my most frustrating issue with Far Cry 3 is the amount of time it takes for the looting or skinning animation to play whenever I take these actions. It seems like the game skips these anim...

Q: How to deal with money and deaths in Borderlands 2

I just recently started playing Borderlands 2 this weekend and I am running into some problems. I am kinda new to gaming, so forgive me.

@GnomeSlice So don't trade for damaged cards.

@FAE I have a small binder that I keep 4 copies of the currently standard dual lands in. It is worth ~$550 for 60 cards.

@GnomeSlice Once you have 8x of something you don't want and zero of something you do want, trading becomes a no brainer.

@Fluttershy too localised

@kalina You people need to make up your mind.

About what constitutes 'too localized' particularly 'in time'.

@GnomeSlice How so?

GnomeSlice

@OrigamiRobot My Wurm question was closed for that reason. Then after a bunch of people told me it wasn't too localized in time, it was opened again. Now people are saying this is too localized in time.

It's a little different, but not really.

@GnomeSlice Are the same people saying different things? Or are different people saying different things?

kalina

@GnomeSlice I think a question that will not longer be valid from mid Feb is 'too localised' - just not yet

GnomeSlice

@OrigamiRobot I forget.

Same people different things in some instances.

Different and different in others.

kalina

7:30 PM

it will cease being useful around the time the beta ends

GnomeSlice

@kalina Right, I agree, but there was a thing about 'questions about games that can no longer be played' that you said was acceptable.

kalina

but it's also not relevant for a few more days

OrigamiRobot

@GnomeSlice You know, not everyone may agree on the subject.

kalina

@GnomeSlice that's completely different

GnomeSlice

My question about how large the Wurm client was was closed because 'it is constantly changing' but then someone said who cares, we can update it, and it was reopened.

@OrigamiRobot Clearly.

kalina

7:32 PM

@GnomeSlice that was about deleting large quantities of content because the official game servers went down, my justification was there is precedent for games that no longer have official support coming back to life in the future

GnomeSlice

@kalina That makes sense, but how is this completely different? The beta version of the game will no longer have official support in the future.

kalina

whereas this Crysis question is more like preorder bonuses

GnomeSlice

For the record, I don't think we should close it.

kalina

@GnomeSlice now that's a silly thing to say, sure the beta won't be available in the future but it will be superceeded by the actual game...

it's not the same as an MMO being taken offline by its developer

GnomeSlice

I'm not quite sure what my original point was any more.

I don't think we should close it.

kalina

7:34 PM

I don't think it should be closed yet

But maybe we should.

Is it a public beta?

apparently

@kalina I don't think that's how it works.

kalina

@GnomeSlice sure is

OrigamiRobot

7:35 PM

Then leave it open until the beta ends. Then close and delete it.

kalina

@GnomeSlice example: gaming.stackexchange.com/q/84576/27134

GnomeSlice

@OrigamiRobot I thought that wasn't how it worked, but okay, cool.

So why don't we close the questions about games that can't be played then?

kalina

@GnomeSlice question was closed as the game was released

GnomeSlice

Which I don't think we should.

OrigamiRobot

@GnomeSlice Because the might come back.

kalina

7:36 PM

@GnomeSlice just because official support has been dropped doesn't mean that unofficial support doesn't exist

Is a beta going to come back?

Or someone might have an old version, right.
