we are aggressive people ...
 
mana really loves game-rec in particular though
more than any of us
 
more than tzenes?
 
tzenes doesn't mow the lawn to say "GAME REC"
 
I'm glad that this chat recognizes my greatest passion in life.
 
true, true
 
10:05 PM
Occasionally I go on walks to get away from it all...but everywhere I go...it's always...always there...game-rec...on the signs, the mailboxes, the trees, the houses the signs the roofs the houses!!
pants furiously, wipes sweat off brow
Excuse me.
Yes, I am...passionate.
 
I hate game-rec but I don't think I've had the same experience trying to explain that to people that @mana has
 
Obviously, my next RPG party should be Gregory, Amadeus, Matthew, Edgar, Rita, Eleanor, and Charlie.
 
Obviously.
 
and Sam
Sam is a good name
 
I know too many Sams
 
10:06 PM
mm, I prefer Jonas
 
@Mana Aiming for a bobince

A: RegEx match open tags except XHTML self-contained tags

bobinceYou can't parse [X]HTML with regex. Because HTML can't be parsed by regex. Regex is not a tool that can be used to correctly parse HTML. As I have answered in HTML-and-regex questions here so many times before, the use of regex will not allow you to consume HTML. Regular expressions are a tool th...

 
Not only are they sources of good recommendations, but it's also a bit confounding to talk about how one Sam recommended me something while talking to the other Sam
 
Oh yeah, it's that guy!!
I want his icon. :<
 
10:08 PM
I actually don't find that confusing
but thats because no one I know talks to me in the third person
 
But yeah, find-replace HTML with game-rec and it fits pretty well.
 
But what if someone was talking to you about things you usually do, but referring in the third person?
They both know me to roughly the same degree and have similar knowledge bases. Recommendations from one literally could come from the other
 
@Mana You can't parse game-rec with regex. Because game-rec can't be parsed by regex. :)
 
Well, it can't!
But yeah, when/if I become Big Brother game-rec is the first in room 101, mark my words.

10:12 PM
Along with anyone who has supported game-rec eye twitches madly
 
...I guess that displays in Chat, too
 
Wow, it's beautiful.
 
@Mana There is no game-rec. War is peace. Freedom is slavery. Ignorance is strength. Lists are unanswers.
 
@GraceNote Which is awesome

"DO IT TO GAME-REC!" he cried
 
It actually bleeds out of your designated chatspace, too
 
@Mana Care for some gin with a few sprinkles of saccharine?
 
Thanks.
 
@alexanderpas I tried to copy that into FF and got a "URI too large"

@CRoss that's your mistake, you tried to copy it.
 
10:25 PM
a grievous error ...
 
Oh, hey, I forgot about that...
 
?
 
we need some starred messages stats...
 
hm.. is this not subjective?

Q: In Team Fortress 2, what is a good strategy to deal with lots of engineers turtling on the other team?

JeffreyNow that the Engineer update has come, there will be lots of Engineers building up everywhere. How should this best be handled?

 
[tactics]
 
10:38 PM
seeing as every answer is quite a different strategy
 
No more or less subjective than any of those "How do I handle this enemy strategy when I'm P/T/Z"
 
why do we have a tag [final-fantasy-tactics]?
 
What question has it?
 
There's a game called "Final Fantasy: Tactics"
 
There's a game called final fantasy tactics, isn't there?
 
10:39 PM
There is. 3 in total
 
@ArdaXi because it is a game?
 
I have it on several platforms.
 
I could ask a question or two about the game
 
Tactics, Tactics Advance, and Tactics A2
 
that answers that question
 
10:40 PM
But there's also
 
I just noticed it while entering tactics
 
Tactics: War of the Lions
 
| engine = | released = PlayStationPlayStation Network | genre = Tactical RPG | modes = Single-player | ratings = | platforms = PlayStation, PlayStation Network | media = 1 CD-ROM | input = PlayStation controller | series = Final Fantasy series }} is a tactical role-playing game developed and published by Square (now Square Enix) for the Sony PlayStation video game console.

The game combines thematic elements of the Final Fantasy video game series with a game engine and battle system unlike those previously s...
 
which is essentially the same game, but for the PSP
 
Psh, that's just Tactics with Balthier
I went to school with Balthier
But I was a Black Mage Flan at the time. We were still cool, though
 
10:41 PM
This image makes me want to go caving
er
wait yeah caving
 
@GraceNote :S
 
It also makes me want to photoshop that image to replace the people with dwarves.
 
@Mana spelunking?
 
I guess that's the term.
 
@Mana spelunking you mean?
 
10:42 PM
yes okay spelunking gosh
tosses self off a cliff
 
I ain't lying, C.Ross!
 
@Mana The forum people would love that
 
@Mana or potholing if you live in the U.K.
 
I believe you, I'm just confused
 
@CRoss ._. They...they want me to toss myself off a cliff?
 
10:43 PM
'twas a dream, actually
 
lol
 
Caving—also known as spelunking by some in the United States and occasionally potholing in the United Kingdom—is the recreational pastime of exploring wild (generally non-commercial) cave systems. In contrast, speleology is the scientific study of caves and the cave environment. Overview The challenges of the activity depend on the cave being visited, but often include the negotiation of pitches, squeezes, and water (though actual cave diving is a separate sub-specialty undertaken only by very few cavers). Climbing or crawling is often necessary, and ropes are used extensively for saf...

Q: How do I sell back a completed building in starcraft 2?

winthroweHow do I sell back a completed building I don't need in the starcraft 2 campaign?

 
@Mana The forum people?
 
Yeah.
 
10:43 PM
... dare I ask why?
 
I could go on for days about my dreams
 
base jumping?
 
...I dunno, I jokingly mentioned tossing myself off a cliff as a response to people correcting me and suddenly you're like Yeah, all the forum people would love that
hurts a man's feelings man
>:<
 
@Mana Timing, maaaaan, timing.
 
Lol, I replied, look at what it highlights
 
10:46 PM
Maybe I'll leave it at the time Momohime and Youmu, the half-Ghost half-Bangaa samurai tag-teamed in a fast-paced sidescrolling action game taking place at a haunted high school whose headmaster was Vayne Lightgod.
 
sit's in S&R helicopter with @mana on the stretcher.
 
oh okay
 
yay, Dwarf Fortress finished downloading! I hate Dropbox
 
Anyways, time to play Mafia II and think of related questions to ask. Peace.
 
@ArdaXi I love to upload it to anyhub, but it wouldn't let me do it, don't know why, but I put it in my dropbox after even uploading it to my own website failed.
 
10:50 PM
Knew it! I knew the demo would only stop at level 2!
 
@alexanderpas I was actually referring to the DF installation I put in my Dropbox :)
however, to get that on my laptop I had to download the full 2 GB :/
I can't imagine what people with a pro account must be thinking..
(it would be easy to fix that problem, just emulate the filesystem and download files as they are accessed, much easier)
 
you have too much in your dropbox, and why didn't you had dropbox already set-up on your laptop?
 
@alexanderpas I use it for collaboration too, and because I hardly ever use it
 
@ArdaXi actually no.. could you download this 500MB file please?
 
err?
 
10:54 PM
I mean to say, dropbox works also offline.
 
my idea would kinda employ a cache
Wuala did it pretty well
 
but still, if you download a 500MB file at run-time... you can lock-up the game pretty long.
 
well yeah, but the same thing goes for dropbox
only with wuala it's done selectively
I used Wuala with Audiosurf, worked pretty well
 
try using it with an already installed Guild Wars ;)
 
anyway, I'm gonna go, good night :)
 
10:58 PM
G'nite, @Arda
 
@alexanderpas preloading it works
 
@ArdaXi like dropbox does for all files.
 
@GraceNote which demo?
 
@tzenes MMT
 
damnit
time to get out my wallet

Q: Remap Camera Control in Guild Wars

Jason BerkanI've just installed Guild Wars on my brand new MacBook, but I've run into an issue with the camera control. The default controls are set so that you hold down the right mouse button and move the mouse to move the camera. However, I am unable to get that to work with the fancy trackpad on the Ma...

 
Stage 3 is where everything really gets awesome, too
 
Grace, link (please); I'm having a fey mood and am going to play the demo!
 
Gwa, I fell asleep at the wheel. I totally meant to close that much earlier
 
this is a cool site: stackinsight.com
 
11:19 PM
((doki doki panic))
 
Don't forget: you can charge your throw by holding down the button
Blue Twintails send you flying up, Red Twintails send you flying forwards. The rest is an exercise for you to find and discover.
@tzenes According to the graph I have more authority on Stack Overflow than on Gaming
 
On meta you probably do
but you've been on there longer
 
No, Meta Gaming is higher than SO
The only thing lower than my Gaming is my rock-bottom SU at 1 question.

Q: What trophies unlock the bonus themes in Final Fantasy XIII?

Jason BerkanIn the PS3 version of Final Fantasy XIII, there are a number of unlockable bonus themes. After completing the main storyline, I only have two of the themes unlocked. What trophies do I need to complete in order to unlock all the themes? (Your answer may also explain how to unlock the themes on...

 
highest chain until cliff... 23
sneaky hidden blue twintails!
 
11:32 PM
By the way, did either of you pick up the ground at the earlier point with the sign of an arrow pointing down?
 
not me.
 
Intriguing insight
 
11:47 PM
*bummed now*
 
first boss battle done.
 
Did you do it the awesome way?
 
what would you call awesome way?
 
It begins with picking up the meteor and ends with an explosion of Life Max Ups (Or was it 1-UPs? I can't remember if the chain goes up to 1-UPs right now...)
 
i did pick up the meteor, but only managed to get a 2 chain from it...
 
11:56 PM
If you didn't bring a healthy chain with you into the battle, it can take some time to bring it back up
 
bbl
 
i get damaged too many times to keep a healty chain...
 
Mmm
 
but i learned one thing... translucent missile are a great way to decieve enemies.
