    The Astronomy Thread

    This is kind of hard to watch, annoying voice, but good info: I knew some of this. PBS Space Time had covered some of it. But damn seeing it all together is kind of convincing. I'd also never seen the bit about filament organization. Crazy how close that looks to spiral galaxies.

    Pan'Theon: Rise' of th'e Fal'Len - #1 Thread in MMO

    Yea mid could have 1 class that did the work of 2 or 3 in the other realms. Add to that the only area stun and the advantage was significant. Was fairly obvious which side the devs played. Left axe style growth and savages were more moments of "oh no I accidentally fat fingered and there's an...

    Rings of Power: Tolkien's Shambling Skinsuit

    I'm scared to even watch. BTW the shire wasn't settled until well into the third age. Most of northern eriador was filled with humans. The shire itself was farmland of arnor (later arthedain). Wars between arthedain / cardolan / rhudaur / angmar + a plague or two wiped out most and led to...

    It pissed me off but then I never really had to do it. I don't use their store shit, though I think it runs in the background when you are using steamVR helpfully stealing resources. They sent me another email a week back or so that said I have to make a meta account or lose all my stuff. I...

    The Astronomy Thread

    They have a date at which they predict the first galaxies formed and all based on models, but I'm not super convinced the whole picture is well understood. There's still some strange stuff they don't have good answers for, like galaxy rotation and the strange quantized redshift we observe...

    Really nice summary of the year so far in 1440p They must have fixed the replay viewer

    More resolution should mean they can look for jets on the super redshifted ones or other strange stuff. I'll check it out tomorrow after the good stuff drops

    One thing I frogot to mention is the way dying works. If you go down your groupmates can revive you with smelling salts within a couple minutes. If not you re-appear at a ember circle. These are little magical fires that repair wounds and regen health slowly. Wounds work like SWG, except no...

    EQ TLP - Vaniki (Level-Locked Progression)

    I'd say 90% of the really great stuff that comes out of games was done without any knowledge or approval of the bosses (until it was too late). Late at night or at home or just being sneaky at work. It becomes harder to do this when people don't have offices and are just thrown into a pit...

    I'm back in the beta. There's still no dedicated arcade queue, but mystery heroes is fun anyway. Just expect winning to be random. Haven't seen the new hero or new map yet.

    One thing I kind of dislike is that there's no cadence to the combat abilities, at least at low levels. Cooldowns are varying, and I'm terrible about watching abilities refresh instead of the action. I've always favoured classes that had a set of abilities one could use without looking at a UI...

    I spent my last big of time trying to puzzle out the stats and math. There's a positional bonus from weapons. Most are side or back, but sometimes there are weapons with front bonuses. These are handy for soloing of course, but it is hard to figure out what the values do. There's a HIT value...

    Fair, yea. I shared my druid with a friend way back in mid 2000's and when I wanted to play years later it had some kind of closed-for-naughtyness thing. I had kind of forgotten about that. I think I had to send an email or something to get it re-opened. I did share my main account with Biny...

    I do remember one of the pay crystals being bugged and doing a lot of extra damage. I didin't find out exactly what it was until they fixed it.

    Ordinarily I'd condemn cheating in all forms. However, if one or more of you were to pool ill-gotten krono to use as a bribe for @Bubbles in exchange for never posting Alinity again, I'd consider that honourable.

    Servers come back up in about 5 hours hence. There was a little mini test wed night and they had done some skybox fixes so I could see the celestial stuff, not that it matters but I love that kind of stuff. Looks like we are on a moon tidally locked to a gas giant. The star looks like...

    Return to Moria

    Yea with Aragorn as king, the longbeards moved back into Moria. Second age is the time of the upcoming tv series (which is probably going to be awful). I think there may be a new book coming on bits of the second. Morgoth's time was the first age, though he still affects the world.

    The best female players I've watched on twitch are Aspen and Dolphin. Aspen is flex support and trying to go pro, but it is really tough because there are so many godlike players in that role. She was too young for the first few seasons of the league. Dolphin was top 500 for alot of seasons...
