00:19 <Cepheid> Yeah, that's nothing special.

00:22 *** Joins: jimm (horse@Pony-fr7.dqo.55.45.IP)

00:37 *** Joins: ADragonDreaming (IceChat9@Pony-tpdjag.livnmi.sbcglobal.net)

00:43 <Schism|Adagio> Okay.  Let's see if Nocturne can remain up for more than a few minutes this time.  I've dusted her out thoroughly.

00:47 *** Joins: Schism (Schism@royalkitchen.canterlot.equ)

00:52 * Schism knocks on wood. "I know that Nocturne is generally much more well-behaved after the PSU is no longer overheating."

00:52 <Schism> Typically, anyway.

01:09 *** Joins: ChaosMageX-HTPC (CMXHTPC@Pony-nc32n2.tx.comcast.net)

01:20 * Cepheid knocks on his face. Immediately passes out.

01:35 *** Quits: PurePurple (Bat@Squeaky.Cuddly.Batpony) (Connection closed)

01:35 * Cepheid noms on the spiciest soup he's made thus far. He puts several tablespoons of sriracha in, alongside the soup's usual spicy mix.

01:36 <Schism> Noice.  o3o

01:37 *** Joins: PurePurple (Bat@Squeaky.Cuddly.Batpony)

01:37 <Schism> Cepheid: Did you know that old hotels etc. would have dispensing slots for razor blades?  You'd have a cute little notch in the wall, with 'dispose of razor blades here'.

01:38 <Schism> These blades then just... collected in the wall.  They never went anywhere.

01:38 <Cepheid> One might ask, what about montezuma's revenge?  Honestly, montezuma can't hurt me any more than I already *HURT*

01:38 <Cepheid> Never knew about that, Schism.  But why bring it up?

01:39 <Schism> Just random human annoyances.

01:39 <Schism> You throw something away, it always ends up somewhere.  But these hotel architects never figured that it'd cause any problems.

01:40 <Cepheid> Until time comes to disassemble them.

01:41 <Schism> Yup.  "This is not a place of honour..."

01:42 <Schism> No great deeds are to be known here.  Nothing here is valued.  What is here is repulsive and dangerous to us.

01:57 <Cepheid> Wonder if event quests have been restored yet.

01:58 <Cepheid> They're at least acknowledging the problems, and planning for compensation.

01:58 <Schism> I'm leery to check right now, but might later.  Also, I should probably get to sleep.  Work in a few hours.

01:58 <Cepheid> Looks like it's back.

01:58 <Schism> Nocturne seems to be back to norm after that day offline and dusting.  Hard to say for sure.

02:01 <Cepheid> Truth told, I'm not sure I want to hunt at the moment in World.  There's a dilemma I'm facing.

02:01 <Cepheid> Basically, you, ADragonDreaming and ConfusionRift are all pre-Master Rank, still.  And I don't want to trivialize Master Rank for you guys, but I'm running out of ideas on stuff to do. :P

02:02 <Schism> Fair enough.  :P  Well, we'll see tomorrow if Nocturne is still up to snuff.  I'm gradually approaching the higher-level HR stuff.

02:03 <Cepheid> Yeah, you guys are catching up fortunately.

02:03 <Cepheid> In the interim, I decided on an alternative solution.

02:03 <Schism> I'll admit, I'm kinda leery about Vaal Hazak.

02:03 <Cepheid> I can help with him.

02:03 <Cepheid> I have gear that resists his stuff, and Wide-range, so I can definitely assist.

02:03 <Cepheid> In fact, I wonder if there's any HH melodies that'd help.

02:04 <Schism> Thanks.  :S  I'm tempted to grab an Elderseal weapon just because ELDERSEAL.  That'd involve grinding, tho.

02:05 <Cepheid> Yeah, Elderseal becomes really important and the devs seem to encourage it.

02:06 <Cepheid> There does appear to be an effect that might work.

02:06 <Cepheid> Cyan, Purple, Orange, Orange.  All Ailments Negated.

02:07 <Cepheid> I have legitimately no idea if it'd work on the effluvia, though.

02:07 <Schism> Hum.  I think tonight I shall steam the rest of this broccoli and make it up with spicy cheese sauce.

02:07 <Cepheid> That said, I don't have a horn with the melody.  What does *THAT* require..?

02:08 <Cepheid> Looks like...

02:09 <Cepheid> Blacksteel Tree, and... Nightshade Paolumu trees.

02:11 <Schism> Blacksteel was one of those choices I was considering, yeah.

02:11 <Schism> It didn't seem to really have much to offer against Effluvia, tho.

02:11 <Cepheid> Nightshade would give me unparalelled power, 'cause Rarity 9.  Easier to acquire, too.  'cause Blacksteel requires I kill Teostra a couple of times.  Not that he's a difficult fight for me at this point.

02:11 <Cepheid> For me, Blacksteel basically provides All Ailments Negated, which I think also covers the effluvia effect.

02:12 <Cepheid> Yeah, according to the wiki it prevents effluvia buildup.

02:12 <Cepheid> Guess I'll go make one.

02:13 <Schism> Wish I had access to that.  o3o  Alas, that is the central conceit of the game.

02:14 <Cepheid> The entire series is known for that, really.

02:14 <Cepheid> What you need to survive X, comes from X.

02:16 * Schism nodnods. "Which is sensible, as a game mechanic."

02:16 <Cepheid> Honestly, if I have any real complaints about World, in comparison to previous games...

02:16 <Cepheid> Lack of variety in armor appearance.

02:17 <Cepheid> Okay, so I just confirmed that with a hunting horn, kelbi horns are easy for me to acquire.

02:18 <Cepheid> Two strikes to the head knock's em down, and they leave behind a horn as a shiney.

02:18 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Calpain: Nightly Discussion #2069 [ http://tinyurl.com/seuprzx ]

02:18 * Schism leaves the broccoli in the water for... oh, 3 minutes or thereabouts.

02:19 <Lumindia> !link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XojJMNCY8d4

02:19 <DerpyBot> I need to ask Twilight about that one.

02:19 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about 19 Video Games on Dual Stylophone

02:25 <Cepheid> Could really do without the cold sweats and vertigo, sinuses.

02:25 <Schism> Lumindia: What, no Commander Keen?

02:28 <Cepheid> Mmmm... Kelbi Horns.

02:29 <Schism> Okay, what, are you capture netting them, or are they just strong enough to survive several whacks to the skull in MR, so that you can knock off their horns?

02:29 <Schism> Not that it's ever at all hard to slaughter Kelbi, but it's annoying.

02:29 * Cepheid captures a cactaur.

02:29 <Schism> Nice.  o3o

02:30 <Cepheid> Nah, this is low-rank.  I'm just hitting them in the head with my horn.  Impact damage.  Knocks them out, and they drop the horn as a shiny.

02:30 <Schism> Huh, not a bad thought then.  Bleh.

02:32 <Cepheid> Currently I have 15.  Wondering how many I should get.

02:33 <Schism> 150, probably.

02:33 <Schism> Plus, if you kill them, you'll get a decent number of livers.

02:37 <Cepheid> Arguably you don't need them a *LOT*.  Ancient Potions should be reserved for quick recovery after carting.

02:37 <Schism> Or, preferably, quick recovery -before- carting.

02:40 <PinkieShy> oh shoot.. o_o

02:41 <PinkieShy> I just looked at Minecraft support twitter page and saw them answering somebody about "Netherite" I didn't know that existed..

02:41 <PinkieShy> It looks like from a wiki i could make a black axe or other objects :3

02:41 <Schism> It's the preferred block of Herobrine.

02:42 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, my earlier-mentioned solution for avoiding getting bored of not hunting new stuff, etc..

02:42 * Cepheid pulls out charged 3DS. MH4U. o3o

02:42 <Cepheid> Or Switch + MHGU.

02:42 <PinkieShy> The wiki states it coming in 1.16

02:43 <Cepheid> Have they removed Herobrine yet?

02:45 <Schism> They keep trying.

02:48 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Sethisto: The Top 25 Pony Videos of 2019 [ http://tinyurl.com/ralpmqb ]

02:48 <Cepheid> Now then, I just need...

02:48 <Cyan_Spark> aaaa who pinged me

02:49 <Cepheid> 4 Teostra Powder, and 4 Teostra Horn+ses.

02:49 <Cyan_Spark> ...oh

02:57 * Cepheid tries consuming a nulberry to cure his affliction. *Schwing!* ... ... ... *FLEX!*

02:57 <Schism> hi sniff

02:57 <Schism> I mean, uh.  Anyway.  Heh.

02:59 <Cepheid> Old MH mechanics, yo.

02:59 <Cepheid> Anytime you eat major things, you have to stop and flex.

03:00 <Schism> Oh, right, heh.

03:04 * Cepheid checks status in MHGU.

03:05 *** Quits: Dranae (kacyr@I.Will.Fly.Higher) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

03:07 <Cepheid> Right, I was mostly a gunner.  Should switch over to SnS.

03:08 <Cepheid> Looks like I never reached G-rank.

03:08 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, in 4U, I'm up to G-rank.

03:16 <Cepheid> Right, time to go murder flamekitty

03:24 <Cepheid> That's one less Teostra in the world.

03:26 <Cepheid> Bah, only one horn.

03:37 <PinkieShy> I find it very cool what i learned a month about about my family history.. How some of my Ancestors came from France, England and such..

03:37 <PinkieShy> Nobody in my family knew we had French in us until.. We looked it up and such :D

03:41 <Cepheid> Hum, that Teostra did it's best to try and escape.

03:41 <Cepheid> But it didn't expect me.

03:41 <Cepheid> Kept flash-bombing it as it was flying away.

03:42 <Cepheid> Mmm, small gold crowned.

03:48 * Ali rolls around

03:52 * PinkieShy licks Ali

03:52 * Ali squeaks at PinkieShy

03:52 * PinkieShy offers her a homemade burger 1/4lbs

03:52 * Ali just ate awhile ago, passes but thanks PinkieShy for offer.

06:22 * PrincessRainbows boops Ali very belatedly

06:23 * Ali brushies PrincessRainbows

06:24 * PrincessRainbows wags her tail

06:29 <PinkieShy> I started to watch MLP again on Netflix :3

06:43 <Golden> It was the only way to stop that constant low storage issue my C: drive was having.

06:44 <ConfusionRift> Which is why I have all my games on a secondary drive. :P

06:44 * PinkieShy teleports Ali into the background of MLP

06:44 * Ali clones herself 6 times cause season one

06:44 <ConfusionRift> I got very few things on C:, so I can keep Windows clean and speedy.

06:45 <Golden> Note this is an omen laptop

06:46 <Golden> I am planning on getting an external hard drive after pre-ordering ACNH, and Doom Eternal

06:50 <Golden> The only two games I have on my laptop's C: drive is Minecraft, and FusionFall Retro

06:56 <Finwe> Good morning, my perissodactyls of minute stature.

06:57 <Finwe> Mlles Ali, DashedRainbows and Filly_Nightmares; Messrs Cepheid, Golden, PinkieShy amd Schism|Adagio.

07:57 <Golden> I finally beat Spacehulk Deathwing!!!

07:58 * Ali noms Golden's ankles

07:58 * Golden pats Ali.

07:58 * Ali rawrs, she's an ankle biting Genestealer

07:59 * Golden moves his ankles away.

08:10 <Golden> Also someone I chat on discord with is wanting to play Nids Ali.

08:10 <Ali> Nids can be interesting, but they require a lot more planning

08:10 <Ali> They aren't the strongest army either

08:12 <Golden> Yeah I let them know that.

08:12 <Golden> Especially the strongest army point.

08:12 <Ali> Nids just overall have the weakest auras, and just can't deal with the super buffing powers of captain blueberry and the blueberries of Tau

08:12 <Ali> Nids aren't what they used to be

08:12 <Ali> And they're stuck in this wierd limbo of what do they want to do

08:12 <Ali> They can do everything, but are masters of none of it

08:13 <Ali> Big Gribblies?  Just don't have the survivability to make it across the field

08:13 <Ali> Little Gribblies?  Weak saves and terrible attacks and damage

08:13 <Ali> Melee?  They're good at it, but roast to overwatch

08:14 <Ali> Gunline?  They're very short ranged and will pay heavily for it if you don't know how to use them.

08:14 <Golden> I mean it's better that the blue berry marines.

08:15 <Ali> Not really

08:15 <Ali> Sadly the blueberries have better auras and save stats

08:16 <Ali> The thing is to me, and probably me only

08:16 <Ali> Is that Hive Guard and Exocrines make for one nasty gunline

08:16 <Ali> With the later getting a juicy new ability thanks to Psychic Awakening

08:16 <Golden> True.... Honestly I am just tired of the favoritism to them over some of the other marine factions. That's good, and I need to pick that up for Dark Angels

08:17 <Ali> I'm not fond of GW's favortism to marines in general

08:17 <Ali> Since being a Nid player since 3rd

08:17 <Ali> They've sucked big time 95% of that time since

08:18 <Ali> 5th Edition was a promice of lots of units that didn't get models and the fex points bloat

08:18 <Ali> 6th was meh

08:18 <Ali> 7th was really bad, the codex was horrible

08:18 <Ali> Also the cause of Flyrant Spam

08:19 <PinkieShy> I gotta go to bed.. Night every pony! <3

08:19 <Ali> the 8th edition or the current book isn't bad, but its not great and they really didn't improve any of the weaker units

08:19 <Golden> I mean I joined in the current iteration of it. I'd like Nids as a display army with Blood Angels (painted to be Blood Ravens) while my Dark Angels are my main play army

08:19 <Ali> Really the things they got right

08:19 *** Quits: PinkieShy (coolm@Pony-ck81je.67-212-45-net.sccoast.net) (Quit: Leaving)

08:19 <Ali> Hive Tyrant got an invul save

08:19 <Ali> Genestealers got an invul save

08:19 <Ali> Genestealers can advance and charge

08:19 <Ali> The cons

08:19 *** Quits: matttheshadowman (matthewhowa@the.shadowy.corners) (Client exited)

08:20 <Ali> Still really weak saves

08:20 <Ali> The continued loss of the 2+ save on the big monsters

08:20 <Golden> Hmm I see.

08:20 <Ali> See Golden what made the Fex and Tyrant so feared back in the day

08:20 <Ali> Was they had 2+ saves

08:20 <Ali> Now GW refuses to give any Nid monster a 2+ save

08:21 <Golden> Oh dear....

08:21 <Ali> So even with 10-16 wounds, they just drop like flies

08:21 <Ali> Las Cannons are AP-3, maybe even 4, with D6 damage

08:21 *** Joins: Lumindia (quassel@Pony-45lvcs.pbg.ptd.net)

08:21 * PrincessRainbows yawns then curls up under ConfusionRift shivering

08:21 <Ali> If you're incredibly lucky, you can drop a Tyrant on turn one

08:21 <Golden> Oh lord.... Don't remind me what I did to someone with my Twin Las Canon predator

08:22 <Ali> If it wasn't for that 4+ save

08:22 * ConfusionRift huggles to warm up PrincessRainbows. :P

08:22 <Ali> Golden, you'll never beat my funniest kill

08:22 <Ali> Took out a Land Raider and a Rhino with an Acid Spray Spore Mine

08:22 <Golden> They charged I over watched. Both 6's for each Las Canon shot.

08:22 <Golden> This was against their Warlord

08:22 <Ali> RIP

08:22 <Ali> Anyway

08:23 <Ali> This was in 3rd edition

08:23 <Ali> Acid Spray spore mines exploded a random direction using the flamer template

08:23 <Ali> It sprayed onto the tanks

08:23 <Ali> Now back then, tanks had armor values

08:23 <Ali> The Land Raider was 14

08:23 <Ali> The Mine's strength? 3

08:24 <Ali> But it got 2d6 AP

08:24 * PrincessRainbows grabs her pacifier and blankie. nini

08:24 <Ali> Which boxcarred

08:24 <Golden> Another was when I got a kill on an ork flyer unit. Took it down with a krak missle. This was over half of the ork army, and well....Flyers make for big explosions

08:24 <Ali> Causing a penetrating hit on the Raider

08:24 <Ali> Which then blew it up

08:24 <Ali> Golden, a 16 point spore mine took out 300+ points of units

08:25 <Golden> Holy...yeah you have me beat

08:25 <Ali> But that was back in the hayday of Nids

08:25 <Ali> You've heard of Warp Blast right?

08:25 <Golden> Yeah why?

08:25 <Ali> Cause it used to blow a hole the size of a Preditor tank into a Preditor tank

08:26 <Ali> Zoes used to be anti tank psychers

08:26 <Ali> They nerfed the effect so hard that its now just supersmite

08:26 <Ali> So now they've been downgraded to anti elite infantry

08:27 <Ali> Its just not the same anymore

08:27 <Ali> Zoes aren't good at anything, and are heavily outclassed by Hive Guard

08:28 <Ali> Heck almost everything Nids is outclassed by Hive Guard

08:28 <Ali> They're just so good if you can abuse them

08:28 <Golden> I can see that. Also thinking about uping my Dark Angels to about 2000 points.

08:28 <Ali> I probably have that much in gaunts alone >.>

08:29 <Ali> Also Nids are expensive moneywise

08:30 <Ali> Really I wanted to try gunhappy nids but well... nobody to play the game with anymore.

08:30 <Ali> I really do think the Exocrine is a decent MC

08:30 <Ali> and with a new command point ability it got even better

08:30 <Golden> Whoa....

08:30 <Ali> 6 broods of Terms, 6 Broods of Horms

08:31 <Ali> Maybe even more, I've lost count of how many gaunts I own

08:31 <Ali> I have about 50 something Nid Warriors

08:31 <Ali> So you know plasma weapons right Golden?

08:32 <Golden> Yeah I know of them. I even use them in my army.

08:32 <Ali> Well the Exocrine is a walking plasma cannon in a way

08:32 <Ali> Cept it can't overheat cause biological

08:32 <Ali> Anyway

08:32 <Ali> The thing has a few special rules

08:32 <Golden> ...... Scusa me....what?

08:33 <Ali> Its a form of Bio Plasma

08:33 <Golden> Well then.

08:33 <Ali> S7 AP-3 6 shots heavy

08:33 <Ali> Now the special rules

08:34 <Ali> When an Exocrine doesn't move, it gets to double tap and gets +1 to its BS

08:34 <Ali> So now you have to deal with it shooting 12 shots at you and hitting on 3s

08:34 <Ali> And it has a 36" range, so it doesn't always have to move

08:35 <Ali> But if it does, it suffers the -1 to hit from it being a heavy weapon

08:35 <Ali> So they gave it a new rule that for some CP, you can treat it as not moved this turn

08:35 <Ali> Also if you're Hive Fleet Kronos, you can reroll 1's to hit if you didn't move

08:36 *** Joins: matttheshadowman (matthewhowa@Pony-p7k.0ec.238.89.IP)

08:36 <Golden> I'd need to replace my assault squad so it is just the base with nothing added, and a Repulser tank. Holy emperor that is something to hear.

08:36 <Ali> This makes them dangerous to exposed units

08:36 <Golden> Yeah

08:36 <Ali> Now for cover humpers

08:36 <Ali> That's what Hive Guard are for

08:36 <Ali> 36" S8 AP -2 2 shot guns

08:36 <Ali> That gives the finger to line of sight and ignores cover

08:38 <Ali> They are also infantry, so there's a CP ability that allows a infantry unit to fire twice in the shooting phase

08:38 <Ali> So double tapping those guys are a common occurance

08:40 <Ali> Also you can give Hive Guard Dynamic Camoflage

08:41 <Ali> This counts as your only adaptive biology for the army, so it has to count.

08:42 * Ali sorries, she can babble about Nids

08:44 <Golden> It's okay

08:47 <Ali> But again, Nids just don't have easy ways to get CP

08:47 <Ali> And their 'allies' aren't that great either

09:10 <Lumindia> Windows updated, woke me up, then broke CUE

09:10 <Lumindia> and spent the last hour getting that fixed

09:11 <Lumindia> now I can't get back to sleep because a n g e r y and my brain decided to reflect on some dumb stuff from eight years ago

09:11 <Lumindia> "Hey, human, remember that thing you did a long time ago that made people hate you? Now you do, have fun"

11:50 <Schism> Great Serpent in a hat and scarf.

11:51 <Cepheid> Why are there TWO of them?

11:52 <Schism> Because it turns out that the tsuchinoko is a species instead of just one creature?

11:54 <Cepheid> So less "The Great Serpent" and more "The Great Serpents"

12:05 <ConfusionRift> Yeah... finally got carted.

12:05 <ConfusionRift> Already got the gems. It's all good. :P

12:06 <Cepheid> Heh.

12:12 <Cepheid> Right.  My hands have stopped itching like mad.  Time to try and get some more sleep.

12:14 <ConfusionRift> "Alright, hunters! Listen up! We need you all to... go out there and find tracks for... a new... monster..." (looks at the hunters with the wiggler hats) "Can you guys take this seriously?!" | "But we ARE. We are VERY serious about this! Please, do resume."

22:36 * Ali wavies to Cepheid

22:37 <Cepheid> Hey Ali.

22:37 * PrincessRainbows bounces around Ali and licks a lot

22:37 <Ali> I might hop into Factorio after eating.  Not sure yet as my brain is just trying to calm itself down today

22:37 * Ali giggles and pets PrincessRainbows and gives her a treat.

22:39 * PrincessRainbows flops on the nice pone

22:42 <Cepheid> Meanwhile, I'm busy today.  I *HAVE* to do something productive.  It's not a question.

22:51 <Cepheid> ... Gods, why did you do this, Logitech?

22:53 * Schism boops Ali with a single arrow. Lucky!

22:54 <Cepheid> Essentially, the problem I have is that my mouse is actually *SEVEN* buttons, not five.

22:54 * Ali boops Schism with a green rupee, it's worth ONE RUPEE!!!!

22:54 <Schism> Cepheid: ...scroll wheel up and down?

22:54 <Cepheid> No.

22:54 <Cepheid> Left mouse button, right mouse button, wheel acting as middle button, two side buttons(As per 5-button mice), and then there's the wheel again.

22:55 <Cepheid> I can push the wheel left or right to activate two more buttons.

22:55 <Cepheid> Which almost always trigger when I use the middle button.

22:55 <Schism> That seems... counterintuitive.

22:55 <Cepheid> Yeah, it's pointless.

22:56 <Cepheid> Because if you press the middle button, you will invariably press one of the two directional buttons as well.

22:56 * PinkieShy licks Ali

22:56 <Cepheid> This is most apparent when you use the middle mouse button in a scroll window with horizontal scrolling.

22:56 * Ali squeaks at PinkieShy

22:56 <Cepheid> If you press the middle button, one of the wheel side buttons will get hit.  Windows 10's default action is to treat these as "scroll left" and "scroll right"\

22:57 * PrincessRainbows boops Ali's horn repeatedly

22:57 <Cepheid> And hey, guess how annoying this is when I'm using middle mouse to scroll a panel?

22:58 <Cepheid> *Press middle mouse to start scrolling view around.*  *Pane jolts several pixels to the left or right.*

22:58 <Schism> Imagine if that mapped as Back and Forward in a browser.

22:59 <Schism> Oh, Cepheid.  I forget, have you used Windows-V?

22:59 <Cepheid> I have not.

22:59 <Schism> Take a look at it.

22:59 <Cepheid> Huh.

22:59 <Schism> Yeah, new feature in 1809.

23:05 <Schism> A Washington state driver was fined heavily after using a stuffed dinosaur passenger to make it look like he was allowed to use the carpool lane.

23:05 <Schism> Thankfully, he was not fined more for preventing to strap the stuffed dinosaur in.  It wore a seatbelt.

23:23 <Schism> Could be worse. Remember that the Creepers were originally meant to be pigs.

23:24 <Cepheid> Heh.

23:24 <Cepheid> I just needed a placeholder.  Something to show a player.

23:26 <Cepheid> Though, before I do any more dev, I should set up remote repositories.

23:31 * Cepheid also updates server software and reboots.

23:31 <Schism> Pff.  How to deal with an indescribably smug gestalt entity.  http://skin-horse.com/

23:39 <Cepheid> Man, Monogame's documentation is *AWESOME*.  *Checks on Game.Tick()*  *Completely blank documentation.*

23:41 * Schism looks thereat. "Outside resources state that it cannot go below 16ms. Well, not like you were planning to do 120FPS anyway, but hmm."

23:42 <Schism> Oh wait, that's different.

23:42 <Cepheid> Arguably, you can tick the game world faster than that.

23:42 <Cepheid> Just requires your own implementation of tick handling.

23:42 <Schism> Yeah, but having it do different numbers of cycles per engine tick.

23:43 <Schism> Still, hrm.

23:44 <Cepheid> In any case, MonoGame's documentation is heavily incomplete, because it relies on the Microsoft XNA documentation.

23:45 <Schism> "Truly great open source projects require high quality documentation. This is call for volunteers to help us make the MonoGame documentation truly great."

23:46 <Ali> What do you mean the entire document is in wingdings?

23:47 <Ali> Well it was going to be in comic sans but everyone went ape*yay* over that.

23:50 <Schism> Cepheid: ... why the hell am I not able to find any documentation online for Microsoft.XNA.Framework.Game.Tick()?

23:51 <Cepheid> https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/previous-versions/windows/xna/bb199381%28v%3dxnagamestudio.10%29 Because you're probably not looking in the right place.

23:51 <Schism> Probably.  I just found that one.

23:52 <Schism> It amuses me slightly that attempting to find data on Update() results in a server error.

23:58 * Schism provides Adra with a cupcake. Written atop it is, "No, we cannot fix someone else's issue for you. They have to come in themselves." It's rather small text.

23:59 <Schism> It's amazing how the right wording actually helps out with our jobs.  When you tell people, "We don't accept international orders," they get argumentative.  When you tell them, "Due to finance regulations..." they immediately stop asking questions.
