04:11, Cryoburner whispers: I totally made cupcakes today.
04:24, Jam> GlaDOS would be happy.
04:27, Jam> It's just like a real cake except smaller. Yum yum.
05:03, Albeyamakiir> Wheatley is awesome. He's so well animated for a robot eyeball.
05:10, Speeder> In what playthrough you noticed that you could remove cameras from walls?
05:10, Speeder> I noticed on my third, then I made an attempt to remove every single camera from the walls :P (I wonder if there are a achievement for that...)
05:11, Speeder> It was like an OCD for removing the cameras.
05:12, Cryoburner> There is an achievement for removing cameras, though I haven't acquired it yet.
05:13, Cryoburner> I did the 'advanced maps' recently, and in the last one, it can be useful as a projectile to knock down at least one turret. :)
05:15, Cryoburner whispers: That last map was fairly challenging, by the way, just figuring out what you were supposed to do at a couple points. :)
12:50, Neuzd> If someone is worried about the cameras *before* you get the portal device, those do not count for the achievement.
14:31, E_net4> And cameras stuck on metal walls can simply be ignored.
19:42, Explorer> Hey everyone. Nice to see you all again.
19:45, Johnny_johnson> Whatcha talkin' about?
19:46, Neuzd> Hey Explorer. I think I know you from your entries in the GUIDE.
19:47, Explorer> That would be me, a looong time ago :) Nice to meet you.
19:47, Johnny_johnson> Hmm. What maps, cameras portal are you talking about? Please tell me something about it.
19:48, Neuzd> If you have some outbox now it's the time to submit them. I'm planning an update for the next week.
19:48, Johnny_johnson> Not I!
19:49, Neuzd> I was talking to Explorer, since at least back in the days, used to send his submissions.
19:50, Neuzd> And probably he doesn't expect that the updates are up again.
19:50, Explorer> I've been only a passive explorer lately, though I will probably write stuff for the next time around. Thanks.
19:50, Explorer> You're right, I didn't expect it :)
19:51, Johnny_johnson> Om, what was all that about maps and portals?
19:51, Neuzd> Let's see if I can blow your mind then Explorer: http://www.neuzd.org/noctis/GOESXNET/
19:51, Neuzd> Johhny, there are cameras in most of the original Portal maps.
19:52, Explorer> Oh wow! This is nice!
19:53, Neuzd> :) Thanks
19:54, Explorer> This is going to be a lot of fun to play with :)
19:54, Johnny_johnson> And what are the "Portal maps?"
19:54, Explorer> If I am to go back to Noctis and submit updates, which version should I use?
19:55, Explorer> NICE or PLUS?
19:56, Neuzd> Vanilla NIV or NIV+. NIV+ has just gamplay addition: mouselook, moviemaker, some extra key. But everything is identical.
19:56, Explorer> Okay, I will go with that then.
19:57, Neuzd> Johhny your questions sound strange...If you play the game Portal, you will see cameras stuck at the walls, in almost every level. We're talking of that.
19:59, Neuzd whispers: I realized I wrote 2 times in a row Johhny, instead of Johnny. Sorry for that
