08:08.22 | Shirik | and we had this discussion like a month ago, didn't we >< |
08:08.43 | Shirik | maybe it was someone else |
08:09.00 | leethal | if you don't like it, it's your problem |
08:09.17 | leethal | if you use web app frameworks, that is |
08:09.22 | leethal | if you don't, then why care =) |
08:10.00 | Shirik | because someone else was trying to convince me to switch to it last time |
08:10.27 | leethal | no point convincing people, really |
08:10.41 | leethal | when a person discovers Ruby on Rails and don't switch to it, he fails anyway |
08:10.45 | Shirik | php works perfectly fine for me, and I understand it well, and I can do about anything I want. Why switch? |
08:10.46 | Shirik | ....... |
08:11.01 | leethal | because it's nicer |
08:11.11 | leethal | you'll be a more happy programmer, doing stuff way more efficient |
08:11.12 | Industrial | I like django. The problem is that my 'client' is the school itself and they would onlt accept php because the sites will actually be ran and used both internally and externally by the school and someone will need to change them in tue future. if they do they thought it'd be better if it was in php because most programmers know php (especially at a mediacollege :E) |
08:11.18 | Shirik | I completely disagree. I've seen the code, and it looks just.... so counter-intuitive |
08:11.27 | leethal | you fail, then |
08:11.30 | Shirik | or at least, it looks so different from everythign else I know |
08:11.36 | leethal | well, it is |
08:11.41 | Industrial | leethal: not so harsh. hes entitled to his opinion. |
08:11.53 | Shirik | in php, in java, in C, they all do a for loop with for (var, test, step) { code } |
08:11.59 | leethal | Industrial: and me to mine, ya? |
08:12.00 | Shirik | iirc, ruby is completely different |
08:12.24 | Shirik | even lua is similar, with for start, end, step |
08:13.09 | Industrial | ruby has different ways of doing the same thing. |
08:13.17 | leethal | of course, it's a different language |
08:13.33 | leethal | a language made for programmers, not computers *rant rant* |
08:13.47 | Shirik | right, all I'm saying is I don't see a reason for me to use it, given I know php perfectly fine, and ruby doesn't give me anything new |
08:14.24 | Industrial | btw, "for element in collection dostuffhere end" is correct |
08:14.56 | leethal | or collection.each do |element1, element2| dostuffhere end |
08:14.57 | Industrial | Shirik: its more about what the webframework has to offer. you can cut alot of time with it. |
08:15.05 | krka | Industrial: is that ruby? |
08:15.14 | krka | kinda similar to lua :) |
08:15.17 | Industrial | krka: so said http://www.rubyist.net/~slagell/ruby/control.html |
08:15.19 | Industrial | krka: correct |
08:15.32 | krka | exactly like lua 5.0 even |
08:15.37 | Shirik | well |
08:15.39 | Shirik | deprecated lua 5.0 |
08:15.43 | krka | yeah |
08:16.23 | krka | i suppose you could define "collection" as a table with its metatable __call set to pairs |
08:16.30 | krka | then it would be the same |

08:18.45 | Shirik | ow |
08:18.47 | Shirik | ok that wasn't right |
08:19.07 | Shirik | had: a = {1,2,3}; setmetatable(a, {__call = function() return pairs(a) end}); for v in a do print(v); end |

08:22.06 | ckknight | lemme think... |
08:22.18 | krka | ah right, this won't work at all |
08:22.21 | krka | need a () around it |
08:22.28 | krka | for v in a(a) |
08:22.31 | krka | but that's kinda pointless |
08:22.31 | ckknight | a = {1,2,3}; setmetatable(a, {__call = function(self) return ipairs(self) end}); for i,v in a do print(v); end |
08:22.38 | Shirik | well that's why I made the closure |
08:22.52 | ckknight | hrm... |
08:22.55 | Shirik | and why I didn't do __call = pairs |
08:22.55 | ckknight | weird. |
08:22.55 | krka | hmm |
08:23.28 | ckknight | oh |
08:23.30 | ckknight | pretty simple |
08:23.34 | krka | __call = next then? |
08:23.40 | ckknight | a = {1,2,3}; setmetatable(a, {__call = function(self) return ipairs(self) end}); for i,v in a() do print(v); end |
08:24.13 | ckknight | I'd just have an a:Iterate() method anyway |
08:24.17 | ckknight | that's my preferred way |
08:24.23 | krka | i'm not seeing how that's different from __call = ipairs |
08:24.39 | ckknight | it's not, krka :-P |
08:24.44 | krka | except it throws away the extra args |
08:27.26 | krka | setmetatable(a, {__call = function(a,b,c) return next(a,c) end}) |
08:27.27 | krka | that works |

08:27.27 | Shirik|Ghost | stupid isp |
08:27.27 | Shirik | so... |
08:27.27 | Shirik | 04:25:15 ‹Shirik› but why is a() required :/ |
08:27.27 | Shirik | 04:25:42 * Disconnected |
08:27.31 | Shirik | instead of just a |
08:27.39 | ckknight | because of the way iterators work |
08:27.54 | ckknight | what pairs(t) does is return next, t, nil |
08:28.01 | krka | sorry i was wrong Shirik |
08:28.03 | krka | it's not required |
08:28.14 | krka | setmetatable(a, {__call = function(a,b,c) return next(a,c) end}) |
08:28.14 | ckknight | so for k,v in next, t, nil do ... end is really what it's doing |
08:28.26 | krka | for k, v in a do ... end |
08:28.53 | ckknight | hrm... |
08:28.57 | Shirik | ah I see |
08:29.13 | Shirik | and if we do a instead of a(), we're going to call pairs() every time and get a new iterator |
08:29.25 | Shirik | which we don't want to do |
08:29.27 | krka | i am not even using pairs |
08:29.31 | krka | see my working example :) |
08:29.35 | Shirik | ref: ckknight's example |
08:30.09 | krka | no, you'll only call a() once, at the beginning of the loop |
08:30.29 | krka | i think |
08:30.37 | ckknight | nope |
08:30.42 | ckknight | it's called every time the loop goes |
08:31.09 | Shirik | but, krka's solution works :) |
08:31.09 | ckknight | hang on, for which example? |
08:31.11 | krka | er, sorry, i meant if you explicitly write "for k, v in a() do" |
08:31.12 | ckknight | yes, it does |
08:31.17 | ckknight | oh, right |
08:31.22 | ckknight | then a() will be called once and only once |
08:31.26 | Shirik | right, I mean if you do "for v in a do" |
08:31.29 | Shirik | it wll be called every time |
08:31.52 | krka | yeah |
08:31.59 | krka | you're using a as the iterator function |
08:32.47 | Shirik | btw leethal, wrt: 04:20:11 ‹leethal› what's that? |
08:32.59 | Shirik | they're lua metatables, one of the most fun concepts lua has to offer ^^ |
08:33.29 | ckknight | metatable madness |
08:33.32 | leethal | metatables? hmm |
08:33.33 | ckknight | I use em all the time. |
08:33.38 | Shirik | me too ^^ |
08:33.50 | Shirik | metatables merely tell a table how to act under special situations |
08:33.53 | leethal | what's the differences between a table and a metatable? |
08:33.57 | leethal | hmm |
08:34.11 | ckknight | a metatable is a table, it just provides extra information about a different table |
08:34.16 | ckknight | like data and metadata |
08:34.18 | Shirik | for example, if you try to "call" a table, as if it were a function, it will search the metatable for a __call function |
08:34.24 | Shirik | which is what we were doing |
08:34.31 | Shirik | or, if an index doesn't exist, it will search __index |
08:35.13 | ckknight | __index is very helpful |
08:35.18 | ckknight | example time |
08:35.37 | Shirik | for example: foo = {a = 1}; bar = {}; setmetatable(bar, {__index = foo}); print (bar.a); |
08:35.41 | Shirik | you will find that it prints 1 |
08:36.08 | leethal | hmm |
08:36.12 | ckknight | local fib = setmetatable({1,1}, {__index = function(self, key) local value = self[key-2] + self[key-1]; self[key] = value; return value; end}) |
08:36.15 | ckknight | fibonacci sequence |
08:36.52 | Shirik | I actually explain a little bit about them in my OOP overview of Lua: http://www.wowwiki.com/index.php/Object_Oriented_Programming#Metatables |
08:37.32 | leethal | hmm |
08:37.43 | ckknight | and AceOO-2.0 actually uses them so that if you describe a method :CompareTo(bravo), for instance, it'll automatically provide the __lt, __lte, __eq metamethods |
08:37.45 | ckknight | and such. |
08:38.21 | ckknight | but yea, due to the __index metamethod, you can use a prototyping-style OOP |
08:38.42 | ckknight | more similar to javascript's OO than C++'s |
08:38.57 | Shirik | unfortunately I don't know much about javascript >< |
08:39.04 | ckknight | learn! |
08:39.11 | ckknight | you must keep learning |
08:39.16 | ckknight | otherwise your skillset stagnates |
08:39.26 | Shirik | aye, but I'm still picking up on Java |
08:39.37 | Shirik | this updater I've been working on is the first time I tried to do any multithreading in Java |
08:39.42 | Shirik | so, there's been a lot of learning >< |
08:40.04 | krka | cool Shirik, soon enough you'll start "picking on java" instead |
08:40.12 | Shirik | no, I already hate java |
08:40.22 | Shirik | so there's no "start," it already happened |
08:40.39 | Shirik | unfortunately there are tools for every job, and as much as I hate java, I felt it was the best tool for this problem |
08:41.15 | Shirik | If I had my way, everything would be done in C++, but sometimes it's just not practical |
08:41.59 | ckknight | note: Java and Javascript are not similar at all. Javascript is only called that due to marketing purposes |
08:42.02 | ckknight | should've stayed ECMAScript as far as I'm concerned |
08:42.14 | Shirik | yeah, that's why I know Java well and Javascript not at all >< |
08:42.36 | ckknight | C++ is horrid in its own ways. |
08:42.46 | Shirik | !! |
08:42.48 | Shirik | why? |
08:43.14 | ckknight | it's a mish-mash of C with some added capabilities, but not added in a nice fashion |
08:43.27 | Shirik | hm, I could agree with that much |
08:43.33 | Shirik | they tried to make it as backwards compatible as possible |
08:44.02 | ckknight | for an object-oriented C, I frankly think ObjC had a much nicer approach |
08:44.31 | Shirik | welp |
08:44.40 | Shirik | there's many that argued beta was better than vhs |
08:44.47 | Shirik | some things just don't happen unfortunately :( |
08:47.20 | ckknight | yea |
08:47.20 | ckknight | the whole betamax thing is due to Sony clinging onto the proprietary-ness without having cheap licensing |
08:47.27 | ckknight | also, the whole C-style syntax I have issues with |
08:48.05 | ckknight | it was originally contrived when keyboards were much simpler and new features were added on as more keys were added, specifically with regard to grouping characters, e.g. <>, [], {}, () |
08:48.22 | ckknight | as well as being written in a time where only very simple LL(1) parsers were available |

15:15.02 | Shirik | negative |
15:15.21 | cogwheel|work | They do that by technically illegal means |
15:15.25 | Shirik | You have to use a little bit more work, but it's not directly available to the UI |
15:15.26 | cogwheel|work | though blizzard turns a blind eye |
15:15.45 | JoshBorke | see? what did i tell you |
15:15.51 | Bembel | :) |
15:15.56 | cogwheel|work | Did you hear something? |
15:16.03 | Shirik | Bembel said :) |
15:16.08 | Bembel | Thanks guys |
15:16.09 | JoshBorke | i'm like the gnome they keep in a box until wanted |
15:16.13 | Shirik | no problem :) |
15:16.47 | Bembel | Does this mean using undocumented/protected stuff or parsing some files? |
15:16.56 | Shirik | it means data mining cache files, etc. |
15:17.11 | Shirik | technically illegal means |
15:18.47 | Bembel | That sucks, a tiny addon to sync quests for a guild site seemed so useful and simple to code up until now |
15:19.04 | Shirik | in an extremely high majority of cases |
15:19.07 | Shirik | the names are unique |
15:19.13 | Shirik | you could use that as an identifier |
15:19.29 | cogwheel|work | 'cept for chains |
15:19.41 | cogwheel|work | but yeah... "extremely high majority" is about right |
15:19.44 | Shirik | mm some chains have different names, but some are identical you're right |
15:21.33 | Shirik | bleh |
15:21.47 | Shirik | pastey.net needs to have 68hc12 hilighting |
15:22.22 | Bembel | damn, I wanted to include useful links to some quest sites, no way to do that now |
15:22.32 | Shirik | sure there is |
15:22.37 | Shirik | it's just not as easy as it was |
15:22.48 | Shirik | There's a way to do everything :D |
15:23.02 | Bembel | was? did they change stuff? |
15:23.17 | Shirik | "was" when you thought you could get the quest id |
15:23.25 | Bembel | :( |
15:23.33 | Shirik | what you need to do |
15:23.45 | Shirik | is have your web server submit a request to thottbot or whatever, and then parse the response |
15:23.50 | Shirik | make it think like a human |
15:23.57 | Shirik | have it submit a request for the quest name, and then figure out the ID |
15:24.25 | Shirik | the same thing works on my site, when someone applies, their character name is submitted to warcraftrealms.com and their character guild history is retrieved and appended to their application :) |
15:24.31 | Shirik | it's not like I knew their character ID or something |
15:25.25 | Bembel | bleh, screen-scraping time again |
15:25.25 | Shirik | of course, that isn't the easiest thing to do |
15:25.27 | Shirik | but it's possible |
15:29.06 | Bembel | alright, I'll give it a shot. Thanks! |

18:22.23 | DT_ | Anyone available to help me really quick? |
18:23.39 | DT_ | Basically my problem is this: if I put a small little snippet of code into the OnClick handler of my button then my addon completely stops working, but if I call a function from the handler, and the function has that same snippet, then everything works fine |
18:23.40 | cogwheel|work | "Just ask (tm)" |
18:23.43 | DT_ | And I can't figure out why |
18:24.10 | DT_ | Here's the button: http://wowi.pastey.net/11681 and the snippet: http://wowi.pastey.net/11682 |
18:24.53 | cogwheel|work | What do you mean by "completely stops working"? |
18:25.01 | cogwheel|work | an error message? doesn't load at all? |
18:25.05 | DT_ | Doesn't load at all |
18:25.17 | Shirik | then you had an XML parse error |
18:25.20 | Shirik | most likely |
18:25.27 | cogwheel|work | Check FrameXML.log |
18:27.49 | *** join/#wowi-lounge Kept (n=htr@179-151.35-65.tampabay.res.rr.com) |
18:28.43 | Maldivia | a good way to check for xml parse errors is to try and load the xml file in Firefox or Internet Explorer (or what ever webbrowser you use) |
18:29.05 | Shirik | and if you use Internet Explorer I will be forced to kill you |
18:29.10 | DT_ | Hehe |
18:29.48 | DT_ | "A name was started with an invalid character." |
18:29.56 | DT_ | if ( rc >= -32 and rc <= 32 ) then |
18:29.56 | DT_ | ------------------------^ |
18:29.56 | DT_ | class="e"> |
18:30.04 | Shirik | ok, post your xml code? |
18:30.10 | Shirik | oh... |
18:30.16 | Shirik | did you write Lua directly into your XML? |
18:30.16 | DT_ | Well, that arrow is supposed to be pointing at the second 32 |
18:30.24 | Shirik | I would strongly advise against that |
18:30.27 | Maldivia | if you use < > in the XML file, you have to write < and > instead |
18:30.31 | DT_ | I know, but it's just a tiny snippet |
18:30.37 | Shirik | Yeah, but what Maldivia is the problem |
18:30.43 | Shirik | <= and >= is illegal in XML |
18:30.50 | Shirik | it'll confuse with the element |
18:30.58 | DT_ | Ah, got it |
18:31.10 | DT_ | Thanks Cogwheel, Shirik, and Maldivia ;) |
18:31.51 | Shirik | no problem :) |
18:32.36 | Maldivia | If you have longer code segments in an XML file, and you don't want to use the < etc, you can embed then im CDATA blocks |
18:32.57 | Shirik | yeah that was going to be my recommendation :P |
18:33.05 | Shirik | I didn't think < and > would come out right |
18:33.08 | Shirik | or maybe it just didn't occur to me |
18:33.40 | DT_ | Not sure how to do the CDATA blocks, but I'll probably just follow Shirik's recommendation and move the code out of the xml anyway |
18:33.45 | DT_ | I just wanted to know why it wasn't working |
18:34.10 | Shirik | <![CDATA[ code block ]]> |
18:34.11 | Maldivia | example (\n = newline): <OnClick> \n --<![CDATA[ \n blabla(); lots of code(); \n -- ]]> \n </OnClick> |
18:34.12 | cogwheel|work | <![CDATA[ blah --]]> |
18:34.29 | Shirik | I win !! |
18:34.37 | cogwheel|work | you didn't comment the closing tag :P |
18:34.45 | Shirik | :( |
18:34.54 | Shirik | I still was first |
18:34.55 | cogwheel|work | or is that necessary? |
18:35.02 | Shirik | dunno, I've never used CDATA in XML |
18:35.05 | Shirik | I rarely use XML in the first place |
18:35.15 | cogwheel|work | I use it in XHTML |
18:35.19 | cogwheel|work | for scripts |
18:35.29 | Maldivia | better be on the safe side, and lua-comment both :) |
18:35.32 | Shirik | In strict XML it's not required |
18:35.42 | Shirik | I know that much |
18:35.53 | Maldivia | well, it's not the xml it breaks, but the lua parsing :) |
18:35.58 | Shirik | aye |
18:36.01 | cogwheel|work | yep, but it's better than wrapping it in a pseudo-comment block to prevent it from rendering in older browsers |
18:36.03 | Shirik | that's why I'm wondering :P |
18:36.41 | Maldivia | but the cdata block shouldn't be needed to be commented out, since the xml parser should "remove" it |

18:57.33 | cogwheel|work | no |
18:57.42 | Shirik | or comments? |
18:57.48 | cogwheel|work | like x = [[ hello this is a long string [[ blah blah ]] sthaoenuth ]] |
18:58.05 | Shirik | that's.... lua? |
18:58.27 | cogwheel|work | the [[ ... ]] syntax isn't specific to comments |

18:59.42 | cogwheel|work | and it's not about comments |
18:59.47 | cogwheel|work | it's a generic long string syntax |

19:31.13 | Maldivia | hmm, think I'll go to bed |
19:31.21 | Shirik | night! |
19:32.08 | Cairenn | night Maldivia |
19:32.10 | Maldivia | it just feels so "wrong" to go to bed this early, used to going to bed 3-4 hours later :) |
19:32.20 | Shirik | You should follow me |
19:32.30 | Shirik | I go to sleep when I get tired, no earlier, no later |
19:32.37 | Shirik | which results in my bedtime changing daily :P |
19:32.52 | Maldivia | well, I know I have to get up at 5.55am |
19:32.53 | Shirik | it usually gets pushed about 1 hour every day, so... by the end of the month I'm back on a normal schedule |
19:33.36 | Cairenn | Bleeter: wake UP! |
19:33.38 | Shirik | I'm basically the male version of Cairenn |
19:33.43 | Shirik | I say I'm going to sleep |
19:33.46 | Shirik | but I stay around for another hour |
19:33.49 | Cairenn | hehehe |
19:33.52 | Maldivia | hehe |
19:34.06 | Cairenn | (or two, or three) |
19:34.11 | Shirik | sleep is a waste of time |
19:34.26 | cogwheel|work | agreed |
19:34.38 | Mike-N-Go | Yet we require it to function proper.. |
19:34.39 | Cairenn | wait until you are exhausted and have insomnia - you won't be saying that then |
19:34.50 | Maldivia | all the fun things happens during the night, so why sleep ther.... |
19:34.55 | cogwheel|work | The need for sleep is what I don't like |
19:35.06 | cogwheel|work | I realize that it is currently necessary :P |
19:35.15 | Shirik | really, if I didn't /have/ to sleep to stay alive, I wouldn't |
19:35.27 | Shirik | I'm quite a bit more productive when I'm actually awake |
19:35.33 | Shirik | I've coded very few lines in my sleep |
19:35.36 | Maldivia | well, sleeping is nice, whne you have nothing to do anyway :) |
19:35.52 | Maldivia | you've never dreamt about coding ? |
19:36.01 | Shirik | only once have I ever solved a problem while coding |
19:36.08 | Maldivia | lol |
19:36.14 | Shirik | that night I jumped out of bed, turned the monitor on and it burned my eyes for two minuts |
19:36.15 | Cairenn | sorry, but I really do enjoy my sleep - probably because I get too little of it |
19:36.18 | Shirik | and then I forgot half of the solution |
19:36.35 | Shirik | er... |
19:36.38 | Maldivia | Shirik: if you don't solve the problems whne coding, when do you solve them |
19:36.39 | Shirik | 15:36:30 ‹Shirik› only once have I ever solved a problem while coding |

19:37.11 | Mike-N-Go | What, you used to snore? =P |
19:37.25 | Shirik | my lack of sleep makes it very difficult to snore |
19:37.49 | Maldivia | other people snoring is often a cause for my lack of sleep... |
19:37.55 | Shirik | brb; if I get dced you all can laugh at me for pulling the wrong plug |
19:38.10 | Maldivia | can't we just laught anyway ? |
19:38.32 | Maldivia | anyway, I was saying goodnight... so goodnight (afk) |

20:05.43 | zenzelezz | isn't it just that format "everyone" uses when they describe programming languages? |
20:05.45 | DT_ | Tem, do ya know if it's possible to have a virtual template inherting from another virtual template? I tried to make a template button that inherited from OptionsButtonTemplate and all my buttons that inherited my template disappeared |
20:05.57 | Tem | it is possible |
20:06.20 | DT_ | Hmm |
20:06.48 | Tem | zenzelezz, honestly, I've never seen ::=. I've seen := used for assignment so that = can be test for equality. |
20:07.03 | zenzelezz | isn't := pascal or something? |
20:07.11 | Tem | sounds right |
20:07.13 | Tem | but I don't know |
20:07.14 | zenzelezz | but I do believe I've seen ::=, not in actual languages, just in describing them |
20:07.35 | Tem | well, if I've seen it before, I don't remember seeing it >< |
20:07.50 | Tem | perhaps it was a traumatic experience and I've blocked it out |

20:54.34 | |FF|Im2good4u | 2.10 i think |
20:54.51 | |FF|Im2good4u | but toc doesnt get updated every patch |

20:55.38 | Thunder_Child | i thought it was 2.0.10 |
20:55.58 | Tem | iirc, the last time they changed the toc version was 2.0.3 |
20:55.59 | Shadowed | TOC version should still be 20003 |
20:56.04 | Tem | so, 2 00 03 |
20:56.20 | Shadowed | yeah, 2.0.12 is still using 20003 |
20:56.24 | Shirik|Ecole | correct' |
20:56.54 | |FF|Im2good4u | oke thanks |
20:56.57 | Shirik|Ecole | it is _wrong_ to use the latest WoW version number to devise the TOC number, despite what wowwiki said forever until I changed it |
20:57.14 | Shirik|Ecole | even though that's where it comes from, most patches don't increment the toc number |
20:57.31 | Shadowed | mmmm |
20:57.57 | Shadowed | Could swear they were changing it even during minor versions but they stopped for 2.0 |
20:58.25 | Shirik|Ecole | the only time they change it is when there's a significant enough difference in the UI, iirc |
20:58.30 | Bleeter | clad|work, Cairenn|afk: pong |
20:58.55 | Shirik|Ecole | which is logical |
20:58.59 | Shirik|Ecole | why break all the addons out there for nothing? |
20:59.13 | Shirik|Ecole | (break meaning force people to check the "load out of date" box) |
21:00.11 | zenzelezz | you still have to click that after every patch though |
21:00.28 | cogwheel|work | not anymore |
21:00.41 | cogwheel|work | they stopped making you back in 2.0.10 or so |
21:00.44 | Shadowed | people got a bit annoyed about that after every patch |
21:01.25 | Shirik|Ecole | that's not what I mean |
21:01.32 | Shirik|Ecole | I didn't mean having to recheck that box |
21:01.41 | Shirik|Ecole | I meant making addons that were previously OK now "out of date" |
21:01.49 | Shirik|Ecole | there's no sense in doing that if you don't change the UI API |
21:02.03 | Shadowed | Thats what they were doing |
21:02.22 | Shadowed | by making you recheck load out of date it was making users think that everything needed to be updated after patches, even if it was minor and no UI change |
21:02.24 | Shirik|Ecole | I'm trying to check wdn for the FrameXML.tocs for those versions but wdn hates me :( |
21:02.42 | Shadowed | It was changed every major patch, except for 2.0.0 -> 2.0.3 |
21:03.51 | Shirik|Ecole | there we go |
21:04.04 | Shirik|Ecole | 1.11.1 and 1.11.2 used the same version number |

21:04.46 | Shadowed | [00:45] <Shadowed> It was changed every major patch, except for 2.0.0 -> 2.0.3 |
21:05.01 | Tem | usually they don't change the toc number for a point release |
21:05.12 | Shirik|Ecole | ok now we're talking about two different things here |
21:05.21 | Shirik|Ecole | maybe I'm arguing about nothing |
21:05.35 | Shadowed | You're talking the TOC number right? |
21:05.37 | Shirik|Ecole | ok, I interpreted what you said backwards |
21:05.57 | Shirik|Ecole | so we both agree then -_- |
21:06.01 | Shadowed | hehe |
21:06.20 | Shadowed | I was trying to figure out why you didn't believe me |
21:06.47 | Shirik|Ecole | I thought you were trying to say the current TOC should be 20010 |
21:07.44 | Shirik|Ecole | and now I'm going to be late for my lab >< |

22:45.31 | Shirik | suprise? |
22:46.18 | Shirik | ah it's in office |
22:46.52 | sysrage | spellsurge and battlemaster enchants are so friggin worthless.. i hate blizz |
22:47.06 | subbawt | have you actually used spellsurge? |
22:47.08 | leethal | I hate them for giving them fancy names |
22:47.12 | leethal | I wish they just put the stat there |
22:47.18 | Shirik | aye |
22:47.18 | leethal | or the proc or wootevah |
22:47.29 | Shirik | crusader! |
22:47.32 | Shirik | I still don't know what that does |
22:47.33 | leethal | hey.. that should be easy to mod, right? |
22:47.37 | Shirik | very |
22:47.40 | sysrage | no i haven't used it. why would i waste mats on that crap? |
22:47.56 | subbawt | because it's actually pretty good? |
22:48.09 | sysrage | 3% chance to get 10 mana per second for 10 seconds? that doesn't give me enough mana to pick my nose |
22:48.25 | Shirik | that's... a lot |
22:48.26 | sysrage | how is it good? |
22:48.34 | subbawt | The proc rate is actually 15% with a 30 second hidden cooldown. |
22:48.48 | subbawt | it procs almost every time it's up |
22:49.05 | Shirik | 10 mana per second is kinda nice.. |
22:49.07 | sysrage | it's still not enough mana to justify not getting +40 dam |
22:49.17 | subbawt | as what class? |
22:49.18 | Shirik | I'm assuming that's while casting |
22:49.20 | subbawt | it's more of a healer thing.. |
22:49.21 | sysrage | if it really procs that much maybe for a healer. but it's worthless for a mage |
22:49.21 | Shirik | as any class... |
22:49.28 | Shirik | maybe for a mage |
22:49.32 | Shirik | but definitely for healers that's nice |
22:49.42 | Shirik | sorry, I do a lot with my priest so I guess I have a little bias there |
22:49.50 | subbawt | i have it on my priest |
22:50.07 | Shirik | I'd take it |
22:50.09 | sysrage | however, +40 is going to affect healing with teh patch, right? would it still be worth it? |
22:50.18 | subbawt | well there's +81 healing |
22:50.22 | sysrage | oh ya. that too |
22:50.29 | Shirik | in my experience |
22:50.39 | Shirik | mana is more vital than uber heals |
22:50.51 | Bleeter | Shirik: it's not just office, it's also .HLP files (although that's just proof of concept atm) |
22:50.53 | Shirik | besides in bigger groups, you have those fricking paladins sniping in tiny heals making you overheal anyway |
22:50.55 | sysrage | ok.. so justify battlemaster |
22:51.09 | subbawt | I haven't used battlemaster |
22:51.37 | Shirik | Bleeter: Oh :( |
22:51.47 | subbawt | but you shouldn't just say "i hate blizzard for making these terrible enchants that i don't really know much about but i can only assume are terrible" |
22:51.49 | Shirik | iirc .hlp files load automatically in IE |
22:51.54 | Shirik | if browsed to on the internet |
22:52.07 | sysrage | ok fine.. i hate blizz for having such horrible descriptions for the enchants. if it's 15% why say 3%? |
22:52.12 | Shirik | anyone else having troubble connecting to login server? |
22:52.29 | subbawt | Im not sure exactly, the description on the recipe tends to be off quite often. |
22:52.29 | Shirik | nm.. |
22:53.25 | subbawt | I mean the effect probably has about a 3% uptime. |
22:53.25 | sysrage | should be called manasurge too. spellsurge sounds like damage heh |
22:55.39 | sysrage | enchanting still got the shaft imo.. they didn't really add any real good stuff.. mongoose seems pretty decent. everything else is just minor upgrades.. alchemists got huge upgrades |
22:56.17 | sysrage | ring enchants are nice though |
