Ben Brocka

Been so long it took me a while to find the chat button

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:28

wouldn't let in my Darkrai. Screw that, Tweaking is 10x the effort any "legit" owners put in

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:28

I think only very specific or extremely poorly made pokemon get caught

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:27

?

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:27

@Chippies I dunno, aren't people already cheating in gen 7

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:26

and even less saw a celebi

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:26

I bet less than 1% of people in gen 1 ever saw a legit mew

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:26

but yeah event pokemon are awful

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:26

not very many though

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:25

I have a living dex now that's all legit, though I think a couple legendaries I was given were probably duped

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:23

then again once the pokemon bank is allowed

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:22

Ben Brocka

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:21

double secret triple backstabbing and crap

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:21

barely even makes sense what's going on in gen 5

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:21

the World's In Danger plot was fun for gen 3 but they went too hard on it

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:21

even team rocket was a bit too much of a parody

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:20

first villain team I wish we could join

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:20

team skull seems like a real legit villain team

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:19

fun

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:19

fight 10 boring battles, fight 10 good ones, oops 3x sheer colds hit in a row, start over

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:19

and even worse, have a slow build up

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:19

IMO battle maison would do pretty well if it didn't cheat insanely

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:19

instead of just the exact same move for 90% of situations

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:19

and it makes people think even just a little bit about who to attack with what

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:18

at it's worst it's a nice mix up

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:18

the targeting and AOE stuff is more than enough

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:18

unless all your pokemon know whole-field moves and are super effective against each other

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:17

unless you're doing super duper giga competitive stuff against real people, two pokemon that are fine for singles are fine on the same field for doubles

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:17

I don't really see how

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:14

part of the reason people complain about sameness is they just grind their one starter to high heaven and plow through everything

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:14

that's GOOD though

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:13

I don't get the hate for double/triple battles, they're awesome

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:13

I'm guessing the 4 totem whatever trial deals make up most of it and the villain plot is extended to make up for the rest

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:13

I just wish we had more interesting things like, gyms with all double battles or something

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:12

I don't think the game will be significantly better for lack of gym structure, but it'll reduce whining so maybe it's worth it at some level

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:12

Not a huge surprise, they have equivalents (the totem things, I think), this gen is all about changing things up, and gyms have been a frequent (imo, stupid) complaint

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:09

the chemtrails make 'em forget

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:09

of course you haven't heard anyone worried about jade helm

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 20:05

Ben Brocka

mostly only the VB apps break that rule

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 19:56

I also try not to have anything over 2000 lines lol

Ben Brocka

Nov 17, 2016 19:55

my rule is usually to touch similar files as little as possible unless they're being completely rewritten

Ben Brocka

Whitespace (programming language)

Whitespace is an esoteric programming language developed by Edwin Brady and Chris Morris at the University of Durham (also developers of the Kaya and Idris programming languages). It was released on 1 April 2003 (April Fool's Day). Its name is a reference to whitespace characters. Unlike most programming languages, which ignore or assign little meaning to most whitespace characters, the Whitespace interpreter ignores any non-whitespace characters. Only spaces, tabs and linefeeds have meaning. An interesting consequence of this property is that a Whitespace program can easily be contained within...

It's time to drop whatever filthy language you're using and get with the best language
