Skyrim Thieves Guild
The Thieves Guild quest in Skyrim is a vortex of disjointed plot-holes, contrivances, and nonsense.
Overused Words in Game Titles
I scoured the Steam database to figure out what words were the most commonly used in game titles.
Philosophy of Moderation
The comments on most sites are a sewer of hate, because we're moderating with the wrong goals in mind.
Silent Hill 2 Plot Analysis
A long-form analysis on one of the greatest horror games ever made.
Best. Plot Twist. Ever.
Few people remember BioWare's Jade Empire, but it had a unique setting and a really well-executed plot twist.
This is post 34542. I am leaving a comment on it. Will this make everything explode? Let’s find out!
Love it!
How did you guys even FIND this page? Just trying numbers at random?
I found this odd duck during the dB move and I honestly couldn’t figure out what it was, what it was for, or who added it.
EDIT: OH, I get it. I forgot about the number being part of the Database Abuse post. I STILL don’t know what line triggers that query, or why.
My theme doesn’t even know what this is, which is why the layout is broken. Like, the comments appear ABOVE the search bar?!? How is that even POSSIBLE?
It never even occurred to me you could leave comments on this thing until you did so.
This is probably the foundation post for your entire website. If you delete this post then every request to your website will start returning 501 errors.
You have been warned… :-)
With the glut of self-referential games over the recent years, this is making me think that this has to be intentional somehow. It’s refreshing to actually come across a crack in the system. Props, Paul.
Also: as a web dev, my favorite touch is that the Twitter feed expanding forces the page as a whole to expand down, creating more scroll space.
Appears broken in Firefox 58.0.1.
It’s kind of a shame that no one found this page before now. It would have been kinda hilarious if someone just left a secret message in the bowels in the site that no one would find until now.
Now I’m wondering what other pages are broken like this.
The comment would still appear in the rss feed,so some people wouldve noticed them.Also Shamus would see them as well.
Oh yeah, I forgot RSS was a thing for a second there. Oh well.
