Scruffpuff posted:That said, I agree that the ELE "announcement" was flat as gently caress. I suspect the original version had more juicy bits. Since it's all we have, in the meantime, we have to continue to work together to decide the direction of CIG, which seems to be our appointed role. if the version i saw yesterday was the jucier, pre-legal version, not really. i pulled it out of my cache and diffed, most of the changes were "my anonymous sources" to "unconfirmed rumours" types of changes e: ignoring all of the ![]()

G0RF posted:I posted my effort post 20 pages behind-- started catching up-- realized there was actually all kinds of drama in the thread-- regretted not checking first-- then furiously sped read Til I got to this picture and breathed a sign of relief... A furniture-related segue is reason enough. i picked the exact right time to say "gently caress this" and skip to the end, because apparently I dodged the drama and landed on your effortpost well done.

DOMDOM posted:while I appreciate the dsmart narrative, whatever happened to turning the thread over to gork? he's been chronicling events superbly for some time, if ELE is remotely true and end times, or at least considerable drama, are incoming shouldn't he be the guy managing the op? gorf keeps refusing

I got interested in a minor project where I attempted to get the more interesting effortposts about the technical fuckery of SC together into one location. I had some moderate success, but a side effect was that I can present to you all the 10 most popular posts of the last 3,500 pages, as defined by "people who quoted them the most". So without further ado: Number 10, and also Number 5, god dammit EightAce Number 11 because 10 sucked Bootcha posted:Consider this my public statement. Number 9 Sushi in Yiddish posted:I think he eventually came to his senses, though he hasn't posted since like early last year Number 8 Galarox posted:Well now I could hardly make sandi into dorothy could I? Number 7 Bootcha posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PeVuMMf-jyQ Number 6 Galarox posted:Sgt Parpers Lonely Smarts Club Band Number 4 BastionPete posted:Well, I lost access to my old account from 2007, so I thought I'd make myself a brand spanking new one to contribute to this discussion. I even bought premium so I could be privy to all the SuperSecretTM stuff going on. Number 3 Hillary Clintons Thong posted:I had fun making it thats all that matters Number 2 Reharakhti posted:

Jason Sextro posted:The guy who was asked a simple question about persistence, in the Persistent Universe, and was unable to answer it with any kind of coherence or succinctly is directing Squadron 42. It's no wonder the script is the size of the phone book, that must be cut down from the first draft. the best part at some point after the laughing subsides, you remember that all these were prerecorded and he had ample opportunity to not only select the most favorable fawning questions, but to also write out a script so he could answer them coherently and the laughing starts again

Step back. like he took the advice any of the other 4 times he melted down he'll probably be back in a month like nothing happened e: to be fair, i think the first time he actually apologized for being so defensive about poo poo, even though it was...weirdly apologetic? like quoting six different people and apologizing to them individually or something?

I am on p3619. When I get to the current last page (3629) that I am on now, for every loving B_of_InfoRedux post that I see, I won't post for 1 day. e.g. if I see 10 posts after p3629, that's 10 days that I won't post. And when I do come back, I will start reading from page count + number of days. Which means that every thing that came before, I will neither read, nor respond to. So yeah, you loving idiots need to stop with this B_of_InfoRedux poo poo and go create another thread for it. That is all.

Tortolia posted:I wonder if Glassdoor would pull that review down if it was reported like the disgruntled employee review that obviously made her feel the need to defend CIG's honor like that. if it's sandi it's a legitimate review from a current employee so up it stays doing more damage

WhiskeyWhiskers posted:Are management allowed to post reviews? Wouldn't that kind of defeat the purpose of the site? not really? the point of glassdoor is to have reviews from people at the company it usually looks better if a high-level says "yes I am a high level" but it's not bad per se especially in this case, where if you say "wow this is what management actually thinks" you can stay miles away ![]()

Mirificus posted:Has the thread been deleted? The first two replies were "Isn't this supposed to be under NDA?" and I know a couple people reported it. Deciding whether it got deleted because Sandi didn't remember that her god-like powers don't extend to her anonymous forum account, or more people were saying "what are you doing that's NDA" than "oh wow cool" is left as an exercise to the reader.

Also worth noting is that ABH's patch notes explicitly excluded the "known issues" and "bugs fixed" sections, opting to only show sweet new features.

Gerblyn posted:The whole concept of hand crafting planets is insane, regardless of what kind of short cuts you take. The area you'd need to generate is so vast, that even one planet would be an impossible amount of work. but no you see they have a hand crafted landing area from their eye-to-orbit video that probably fits entirely in a 4km^2 area, therefore the vertical slice alpha exists and they just need to fill it with content, no problem
