So as the Skill Calculator is in beta, I'll be working on a few fixes and add some functionalities.
The TODO list is now in the sticky post, here.

Magistrate posted a message on New Forum Feature: Experience the ExperiencePosted in: News & AnnouncementsQuote from "SFJake" »
I also don't see what all this award and posting and "hey, be as active as possible in a ...forum" is about, but I don't particularly care. I don't see how that could push any average guy that comes by to post more, and I don't care because its meaningless no matter how you put it.
I think some people -really- have an addiction problem to Levels and XP.
This mod is a reaction to all of the positive and negative rep spamming and the resultant whining the staff has been receiving for a while now. It is not a cheap shot at trying to increase activity. The statistics, however, are accurate. -

Sixen posted a message on New Forum Feature: Experience the ExperienceAs many of you may have noticed, we've been doing some tests with a new vBulletin Mod that is now complete. What this brings us is an award/trophy type system. The user with the highest amount of points per section, holds that award. If the user should be beaten out by someone else, the award is immediately transferred to the new user. There are various ways to earn points, things like making posts/threads, voting in polls, making calendar events, every little thing you do around here can earn you some points: the more active you are, the more points you can earn.Posted in: News & Announcements
When clicking on a username in their postbit, it contains some general information about their level and experience points. To see a breakdown of that user's points you can visit their profile and click on the "Experience" tab. Furthermore, you can go to the "Community" or "Quicklinks" navbar items to find the Member List sorted by highest level.
As of right now, Seth holds the Most Popular, Community, Blog, and Calendar awards. Elfen Lied holds the Posting award, ScyberDragon holds the Activity award, and Nektu holds the Frequent Poster award. I think we can all agree, Seth is the man to beat. More awards, based on other categories, will be coming in the future, so be on the lookout. -

Kalypso posted a message on The RTOA Game! (Trivia)Welcome!Posted in: Off-Topic
This is, essentially, the rebirth of my pride and joy.. the Video Game Quiz.
I'm sure a few of you remember participating the last time I was active. You all had fun, right?!
Anyway, RTOA stands for Random Trivia Of Awesome(ness). It will apply the same sort of rules and... applications of the last one. Except there can now be questions about anything! Exciting! Right? No? .... =/
_________________________________________________________
**UPDATED** Feb. 14th, 2010
Reason: Revised Bomb rules
Question Guidelines
Okay, so. I shall name three categories and supply three questions in each. Each question is letter coded (A, B and C).
"A" questions involve using common sense or having simple general knowledge on the subject. They will most likely take the form of a True or False question, or a "Name the x amount of whatever" question. These are worth 1 point.
"B" questions will require you to have experienced the subject in some form to be able to answer them correctly. They normally take the form of a standard question or a "Name the x amount of whatever," although slightly more difficult. These are worth 2 points.
"C" questions need you to have learned about the subject in some way. Or at least read about it a lot. They vary in form and, usually, will require a substantial amount of extra knowledge. These are worth 3 points.
The Codeword
I will name a "codeword", as I call it, that which, whenever I place it anywhere in one of my next posts, you can point it out to gain a 3 point bonus.
It will be displayed directly above the questions, that location doesn't count. It's there every time, you can't say it's right there to get free points. If it's somewhere else in my post (not including quotes), you may point it out to get a bonus.
Edits do not count, either. You must point it out in your original post.
Bombs
There will also be "bombs" returning. Where if you answer a series of questions (usually 5-10) correctly: you get the option to "bomb" someones points. Normally, that would mean setting their points to zero, but instead will reduce them by half. Mind you, if you get even one of the questions wrong, you've lost your one and only chance to bomb someone.
To gain points:
1. Answer questions, one at a time, from one of the three categories
2. PM me a set of questions, you will gain two points for this. But you are not allowed to answer questions in your own category, you may still answer in one of the two remaining.
A couple rules:
1. Try not to Google answers.
2. You may answer ONE question at a time. (Not one in each category, just one per poster)
AND IT BEGINS!
____________________________________________________
Category 1: The Computer
A.) What does GPU stand for?
B.) Name 2 companies that produce computers. (e.g. IBM)
C.) Name the first commercially successful computer to feature a GUI.
Category 2: Foods that end in amburger
A.) Name a food that ends in amburger.
B.) Name a food that doesn't end in amburger
Bonus.) What am I referring to in this category?
Category 3: The PS3
A.) M_ta_ Gea_ S_lid 4: G_u_s _ _ th_ Patr_ _ts
B.) State the Month/Day/Year on which the PS3 was released. -

Zhar posted a message on Abbadon's Legions - Story Thread"The drinks are in town, which is where we should be headed off to." said Dagon, honestly wishing they had all the time in the world to just sit here on the beach.Posted in: Roleplaying
Fucking paradise around here...
"I figure if we walk far enough through this forest, there should be a road on the other side." he said to the others, pointing to the woods past the shoreline.
He lowered the anchor, making sure it was secure in the sand before walking off into the woods, hoping his companions were close behind. He drew his dagger and began hacking away vines and tree limbs as he walked through the forest, keeping an eye out for any beasts that may attack them, or beasts that they could eat. Food was beginning to run short, and they needed to resupply.
As if the gods themselves were reading his mind, he saw a dead deer several feet ahead of the path he was currently following. You've got to be shitting me.. he thought to himself, he couldn't believe his luck. The deer even looked fresh, something must have been interrupted after the kill. He bent down, and hefted the deer over his shoulders.
In seconds, he was thrown up into the air, a rope around his ankle. He was left dangling from a tree. "AAAAAAHHHH, WHAT THE HELL IS THIS?!!?" he yelled, looking around for any companions. The only person he could see was a shady figure looming behind several trees.
Guess this is it he thought to himself, silently cursing himself for not foreseeing this trap. -

This is Louis, Dolly.
It's so nice to have you back where you belong.
Am I doing it right?

Incorrect Mana cost
Should be - Mana_Cost = 13
Barbarian:
Bash:
Now - not displayed
Should be - Mana_Cost = 2
Double Swing:
Now - Mana_cost_Array = 2|1.7|1.5|1.2|1|0.7|0.5|0.2|0
Should be - Mana_Cost_Array = 1|0.8|0.7|0.6|0.5|0.3|0.2|0.1|0
I'm not sure about this data, but this is what it says on the Arreat Summit. I guess that their data is for each hit, but your data (and thus the displayed data) is for the complete move.
Stun:
Now - Mana_Cost = 4
Should be - Mana_Cost = 2
Druid
Arctic Freeze:
Now - Mana_Cost = 4
Should be - Mana_Cost_Array = A bit more complicated
Paladin
Prayer:
Now - Mana_Cost is in integers
Should be - Here is a proper path until lvl 20
' />
Should be - Range = 20 yards
Barbarian:
Battle Cry:
Now - Duration is shown in integers
Should be - Duration is given with one decimal as seen here
Druid:
Rabies:
Now - No space at poison_duration
Should be - Yah...
Necromancer
Corpse Explosion:
Now - Range_Array = 3|3|3|4|4|4
Should be - Range_Array = 2.6|3|3.3|3.6|4|4.3 (once again integers -> decimals)
The duration of some curses at certain skill levels is, well, ugly. They've got infinite decimals. A small list:
Weaken 3/8/9
Iron Maiden 2/3/8/9
Life Tap 3/9
Decripify 3/9
I only went to Skill_Lvl 20, but there are probably more.
Paladin:
Sacrifice:
Now - Damage to Self isn't shown
Should be - Damage_Self = 8%
Vengeance:
Now - Cold_Damage%
Should be - +Cold_Damage%
Sorceress
Frozen/Shiver Armor:
Now - +Defence_Bonus%
Should be - Defence_Bonus% (A bonus implies that it's added. Ingame there also is no plus-sign)
Shiver Armor:
Now - +Armor_Duration
Should be - Armor_Duration
Energy Shield:
Now - +Duration
Should be - Duration
Inferno:
Now - +Range
Should be - Range
Blaze:
Now - +Fire_Duration
Should be - Fire_Duration
' />
Should be - Bash also adds Damage = Skill_Lvl (this is not effected by the synergies)
Druid:
Fire Claws:
Now - Attack_Bonus_Array = 60|75|90
Should be - Attack_Bonus_Array = 50|65|80 (just -10%)
Paladin:
Vigor:
Now - Radius_Array = 10|12|14
Should be - Radius_Array = 10.6|12.6|14.6 (Just add 0.6 yards)
Meditation:
Now - Radius_Array = 6.6|8|9.3
Should be - I'm not sure here. Ingame it says Radius_Array = 10.6|12|13.3 (the same as pretty much every other aura) but here it says something completely different.
Holy Fire:
Now - Fire_Damage_Array = 1-3|1-3|2-4|2-4
Should be - Lookies
The following offensive auras have incorrect radii:
Holy Fire
Holy Freeze
Holy Shock
Sanctuary
Fanaticism
Those on the Arreat Summit correspond with at least the first 3 levels ingame. I guess the other levels are pretty easy to deduct.
Sorceress
Frost Nova:
Now - Cold_Damage_Array = 4-4|6-6|8-9
Should be - Cold_Damage_Array = 2-4|4-6|6-9 (min_Cold_Damage should be reduced by 2)
Glacial Spike:
Now - When all cold spells are at lvl 1, then Cold_Damage = 20-29
Should be - Cold_Damage = 18-27
The odd thing is that this difference seems to change at different skill levels. Sometimes it's 2-2, then it's 1-2 and so forth. If you tried setting the Base_Cold_Damage = 16-24, then the problem should be gone. Now the base damage is 17-26, which is the same as on the Arreat Summit. The problem with the Arreat Summit is that 17-26 includes the synergies from the prerequisites (so +5% from ice bolt and +5% from ice blast.)
Static Field:
Now - Radius_Array = 3|3.6|4.3|5 (i.e. 3|3 2/3|4 1/3|5)
Should be - Radius_Array = 3.3|4|4.6|5 (simply + 1/3 yard)
Chain Lightning:
Simply the same problem as Glacial Spike - your base damage is actually base damage plus some synergies. Setting the base damage 1-37 will solve this (37*1.08=40 lightning and charged bolt synergy)' />
I should note that these things have been detected in Chrome 4.0.
I checked pretty much everything ingame with help of the -act5 shortcut modifier.

Here it is:
(Daemaro) Ravanos - Monk - Agile, strong, blazing right arm - Cyan
Right arm is swirl of black shifting material. At times this greatly hurts.

And I ask you this, did the Greek think there was a difference between wind and air?
And Rogue <--> Rouge is just plain silly.
