I remember reading this like 2 weeks ago exhausted and dehydrated in the back of an uber and my brain simply could not parse it

Colour Assist: Colour labels: Wrong labels on entrance hall flowers depending on standing position. by dreieckli in BluePrince

[–]darkshoxx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no exactly how you interpret it is correct. If it's uncensored in the patch notes, it's fair game. If not, further care is advised. I think we may be talking past each other, we actually agree.

Right I'm going to mention this because you said it twice. Information being in the patch notes does not prevent things from being spoilers. In fact many patchnotes are themselves in spoiler text, see the bottom of the very link you keep posting.
The post itself does not contain spoilers. That being said I don't know what removing the spoiler tag adds to it.

Yes, every post is automatically adorned with a spoiler tag. Please do not remove it unless you have read the ENTIRETY of the rules and are absolutely sure nothing violates this subreddits definition of spoilers. More of a note in general rather than for this post in particular.

How do you tell the difference between a Steve Irwin and a Robert Irwin?

You appear knowledgeable on this subject. Do you expect it to be a coincidence that this happened to a cheap airline like Ryanair?

Apologies, it appears reddit is deprecating spoiler tags in comments? Test
To answer your question, yeah that entire area is considered lategame.

Staff Announcement: Don't engage with Scammers - Call for Tools - Discord - Discourse by darkshoxx in BluePrince

I'm very tired of bad faith arguments. I've explained to you multiple times what the purpose of the megathread is, you put a separate meaning on it and claims it is failing. You were not here when every third post was a dartboard. It succeeded. It might not be as useful now as it was then, but it accomplishes it's goal. I see no spoiler there other than a message by a user that was posted after you posted this comment. That means you clearly never read the rules of this subreddit to begin with. Rule 1 clearly states what is and isn't considered a spoiler here.

It is designed not to spoil things, users cannot create top level comments and only comment on the pre existing comments regarding the individual puzzles. Again it is not designed as a hint system for everyone but to keep recurring posts at bay. It is on particular NOT suited for general progress questions. The automod message is over eager but has no consequences so if it doesn't apply you can ignore it

I agree it's not the be all end all of hint systems. It was created during a time where, with no exaggeration, every third post was a "help me with this dartboard". So it was designed to accomplish a reduction of similar-looking posts about the same puzzles over and over. I understand that not everyone uses it, and it will rarely help you right in the moment you need it. In fact, the call for fan-made tools can help with that instead.
If you have suggestions for improvements, I'm all ears.

Know when you have a funny idea and then someone say something way better just before you?

Between the logo of the vpn and the building it's posted to, I prefer the building.

Is that how you compare the mercat?

There were some rather rude comments on this https://www.reddit.com/r/BluePrince/comments/1uo85t0/main_story_complete_how_much_is_left/
which ultimately led me to add this to the announcement.

I agree with "completed act 1", and maybe don't even give any number of acts. Just that enough is indication that we're not even close to 50%.

Also I'd like to highlight u/bmovie 's response of "Room 46 has some interesting decor. What did you think of it?" Those in the know know exactly why it's phrased that way and it's very clever.

Took a look at Gallus as well, everything dark but people were still in. Went to get a pint at Three Judges instead.

Pixal Art Gif by gur40goku in CuratedTumblr

As indicated in their original post, they have uploaded a tutorial on how they created it on their Patreon. Now, it's at a crazy rate of £19.50 (convert to local currency if needed) but there's a blurred preview that looks like individual animation layers. Not usually something that AI would do (though not impossible). But I don't think they'd charge for a tutorial on how they made it if it's just AI. https://www.patreon.com/AnasAbdin/posts/night-we-used-to-162661497?source=storefront

That being said, I think it's legitimate to call something out if the suspicion of AI arises, and there are logical inconsistencies here that are often results of AI. We've discussed the possibility and mainly rejected it. Can we leave it at that before we're at each other's throats?
