That is super cool! Since I don't play (have much time for) WoW anymore, something like this would sure serve an awesome "waiting for the transit" time-waster. I wonder though, I know the relationship with Blizzard is on quite good terms, but I remember looking-up Blizz-apps last night and coming across various articles citing this. It would be such a shame if an idea like this ended-up getting squelched. :/
They were charging money. We're trying to be a bit smarter about it. We also chose a name that we believe they will not use for theirs (could be wrong).
Well, we're just trying to make something good for people to use. If blizz has an issue some day we'll take it down but there's several other d3 apps out there right now that are charging money and not having any issues for months.
There have been a few good entries, but most of them seem like lame brain farts to be honest. Next week I hope there's a limit of one entry per person. Maybe then people would put some more thought into what they're making, and we'd get some higher quality entries.
I also think a caption contest should be about adding a caption to the picture, and not about pasting in tons of stuff from other pictures. If doing that is encouraged, it should probably be called something other than a caption contest. That's my opinion anyway.
One entry per person will only lead to mass account creation. And I really hope some mod will clarify the photoshop or not question at some point.
One did, and he said it was okay to photoshop. It doesn't say in their original post but there is a mod post saying you can, somewhere.
*thinking with portals* pretty much falls in the meme category thou.
As long as they've managed to make something funny, memes are fine imo. Just pasting in a trollface doesnt cut it, but if they've added some funky lines that made me smile then why not.
Also, let the mods speak on their own behalf, they havent said "no meme's" so far...They did say "add captions" thou, but tbh most of the "caption only" ones are pretty dull(....so far)
Yeah that's what I meant. I was trying to be less-harsh but basically I feel the meme's are just getting tiring and they haven't been as funny overall. Is the portal gun a meme? I guess I haven't seen it around much... but it fit brilliantly into this pic.
Also, I said I was GUESSING what the mod's were feeling. If I was judging I'd be pretty pissed off by meme's and troll-faces by now lol.
It is a sizable amount of data, so there is no way around it. A total of 113 skills, thus 565 skill/rune combinations.
You could maybe type the information out in Excel. That might be the easiest way to compress it.
But why would you want to print it off anyways?
my job requires me to drive out to BFE, then i have to wait for State approval to pull my samples, this can take 4-8 hours. no cell service out in the boonies.
You can change the URL for demon-hunter, monk, witch-doctor, and wizard. It's blizz's JSON language from their site... I just put the URL into that online JSONViewer which should let you copy paste it out. It's not the nicest looking thing but it's plain text.
Edit: Crap I forgot it doesn't have descrips in it... one sec.
this will work nicely, gonna take some cleaning up but way less work than typing all of it. Thanks man
Prime
Did you catch my 2nd edit? Use that cause it has descrips.

Edit 2: Okay here is a Plist file I am using for one of my projects. It's extracted info from that JSON stuff and blizz tooltips (took some work). http://www.mediafire.com/?ihulsl5kd3iphj0
If you have a mac with Xcode you can read it nicely... otherwise...
->Since Plists are just XML you can view it in an XML editor or something.. Here is an online XML viewer you can paste in the stuff from the Plist. Note: You should probably view the Plist in an editor like Notepad++ though. Regular notepad fails. http://www.nicertutor.com/xml.cgi
If that's too complex, I did it for you and put it in this link: http://pastebin.com/PhVQavUH
Format is meh but it's plain text so yeah..
I like the HL2 Portal gun one... it's smart; not really laugh-out-loud funny but it's safe & win-a-contest funny. The only one that made me laugh out loud though was the cockmeat-sandwich one just because it was so silly.
I'm being pretty brutal here though. I haven't seen em all yet but it's hilarious reading through them.
Ones with trollface and meme references should be disregarded.
IMHO.
<_<
I agree with this. It turns me off right away because it feels like they're just using someone else's creation. Moderators will probably feel the same way I'm guessing.
Yo can you guys who are new to Diablofans please figure out how to embed it properly (or at all). It's fun reading through them all I just wish I didn't have to click through on half of them.

The arguments in this thread remind me of the ones we had on sc2mapster about the map marketplace.
There's a large group of people really not happy about money getting involved in Blizz games (after the initial purchase or subscription). But to me, it's Blizz staying in the 'game' and pleasing investors while still being very good to its fan base (WE can make money on the RMAH and WE can make money on the map marketplace).
"if Blizzard doesn’t provide it someone else will."
I was talking with Sixen how these could have been leaked... here's one theory I had:
Blizz probably was uploading them privately, but then because of maintenance on youtube, couldn't set them to private until maintenance was done and somebody ripped them during this time.
... I had this happen to me with a mapping tutorial.

Be careful how you say that you 'played it at a friends house' (or don't say it at all for legal reasons lol).

Also, the world (as deemed by gaming) is not centered on 'EST'. However most of them are smart enough to write PST or EST lol.
