at how many votes is it considered consensus?

@Noctrine, it's smaller that I'd hope

@Juan don't know, really. 10? 15? 20? How many users are active in meta, anyway?

Noctrine

Most of our users haven't even been to the meta site...

@Juan I'd say these two questions have a consensus:

meta.gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/75/looking-for-game

meta.gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/489/…

(these are just the ones I can remember from the top of my head)

Noctrine

If the cheat is an actual cheat thats apart of game logic I don't see why its a problem.

"I think Looking-For-Game is great. However it can be closed as 'not a real question' if not enough information is provided."

AOE2 had cheats that could be used in multiplayer. They were hellanoying but they were there

Simplistic, but highest voted :)

Q: Links no longer formatted prettifully

When you post a link in chat that is suppose to be formatted nicely (StackOverflow Question, Amazon Link, etc), it no longer converts it to something prettiful. Sometimes it times out and asks me to retry. Other times it just never reformats it.

Q: Which Pokemon are easy to turn into "medalists"?

I'm trying to have one of my Pokemon win all of the Pokethlon events, but this is naturally not such a simple matter since most Pokemon are only strong in certain areas. Therefore, I was wondering if anyone could point me to Pokemon which are good "Medalist" candidates, with or without the use o...

@Noctrine WTF was that?

Oak

I think it only works with special pages, like Amazon, Wikipedia, Youtube etc

also, he says nothing about his son

Oak

i.e. special because they're popular

Noctrine

Yeah, but the meta thread said that those weren't working.

Oak

Surprisingly small amount of hardware questions so far, in my opinion

Maybe because consoles are so popular, actually

not much hardware discussions there

Juan Manuel

well... I'm going home, see you later!

Q: Burnout Paradise: constant crashing on Vista & Windows 7

I know this has little to do with gaming, but more to do with lack of gaming. On both my Vista PC as my Windows 7 laptop, Burnout Paradise crashes 9 times out of 10 just a few frames after going in-game. The odd thing is that it happens on both machines (PC has a nVidia 8600 GTS, laptop has an A...

Q: What masteries synergize with Warfare in Titan Quest?

I just hit level 8 in Titan Quest and found that I can choose a secondary mastery. Warfare is my primary. I looked through the various options for a while and was a bit overwhelmed. What secondary masteries (and skills) work in tandem with the Warfare abilities, and which don't work? For example...
