I was looking around and noticed this LP for Saga Frontier. Is this LP complete? I'm not sure.

Unless you're really sure you can handle it, I wouldn't recommend doing an update every day. I know there are some people who can push out videos regularly like clockwork, but not a lot of people can handle that kind of output.

When Chip and Ironicus LPed The Wonderful 101, didn't he put the gamepad view into the corner when he wanted to show something?

Yeah, it came back online in the last few days because I checked the Ace Combat 2/Assault Horizon Legacy thread last week and it was still open (because I have one final update that I keep putting off and putting off for it that I'm gonna have to throw into the Ace Combat 04 thread now) and the thread was Archive Locked, and the last post in that one was late August.

Basically, if your thread hasn't seen a reply since like Mid October-ish, it's been Archive Locked.

Unless I'm mistaken, LP threads get Archive Locked after 2 months of inactivity while every other thread gets 3 months. Which means that, at this time, starting tomorrow LP threads that have been inactive since November are at risk while it's October for every other thread.

I've been thinking about trying out Elder Scrolls Online, and I figure doing a Let's Play would be the best excuse to justify dropping however much it costs. What I want, though, is a couple of other players to LP along with me in the other two factions, posting in a round robin configuration. I asked Lizard Wizard (of course I did), but he's got his own LPs to deal with.

Gotcha covered there: http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3758154

What I don't understand is why the LP threads get 2 months while every other thread gets 4 months (haven't seen one with 3 months).

I've been thinking about this idea for a while now and I'd like to know if I can do this. I was thinking about making a thread that warns people when threads in the LP forums are going to be archived. There could be any number of reasons to prevent a thread from getting archived, such as someone needing a little reminder that they were working on something (especially when the OP locks the thread and because they don't have platinum they can't receive PMs to remind them).

Here is an example of how the thread would work:

--------------------------------------------------
Friday, June 30


--------------------------------------------------

What this means is that the next day, July 1st, is the day these threads are archived, so the last day for someone to post in any of those threads is June 30. And the warning thread will be updated with each post a different day up to at least a week, 2 weeks tops. I think that's enough time to warn people in advance. Also, I wasn't sure if I should include the name of the OP with each thread as there could be multiple contributors. What do you think?

After watching(/reading?) a subtitled LP I had a random thought: are subtitles better at the bottom of the screen, or at the top?

You can set the flag &perpage=10000 or whatever onto the end of the thread url which should give you 10000 posts per page. I doubt 10,000 will work but whatever the forum limit is will be given.

Then archive 3 pages of 1000 posts rather than 200 pages of 40 posts.

That sounds like a surefire way of crashing your browser.

No no, I didn't mean that. I meant that the threads themselves were not falling into the archived state.

Well, besides that, of course. I'm mostly concerned with the number of images bogging slower connections down.

If you're worried about that, you could always put updates into the LP tester.

Actually wasn't there a megathread once for spooky games? IIRC it had playthroughs of Ib and Ao Oni, maybe this game is also there?

I think I remember that thread. I can recall 2 or 3 titles other than the ones you mentioned; there was Paranormal and Haunt. I think Mad Father too?

I got Vegas Pro 14 from Humble Bundle for €20 or thereabouts. Its GPU acceleration code is so ancient and bad that a driver update broke its ability to realize my GTX 1070 exists, easily quadrupling processing time when rendering a relatively simple video with some "effects" that claim to be GPU accelerated.
Apparently the solution to this is to either update to fork out for 15+ (lol no) or to install an additional ancient video card (apparently the gtx780 is the best one to get).

Extreme Humble Bundle sales are the only way you should buy Vegas.
And even then, it's probably not worth it. Because you will need to immediately go into your control panel and uninstall the Magix Communicator program that automatically gets installed alongside it, which is literal adware that pops up GIANT banners on your computer. And no, there's no checkbox to untick and prevent it from installing.
Also, every time you boot Vegas it'll display an ad for the latest version and the checkbox for disabling them is non-functional. The actual setting for it is somewhere hidden in the preferences window.

E: I'm a dumdum and got my versions mixed up. I got 14 instead of 15. Point still stands though.

I think I bought the same Humble Bundle last year. A shame to hear that it sucks.
