League of Legends
So out of curiosity, why aren't we getting any guides for this game?
- Back To:
- Board List
- Topic List
- Topic Archived
I've always found myself wondering why, with the huge popularity of this game both on this site and elsewhere, why it seems like no one's interested in contributing guides to GameFAQs for it.
We have three general FAQs and three Champion-specific guides for it. 4 of these guides haven't been updated since 2010 and 2 haven't been updated since 2011.
Is it simply that the game doesn't need guides, or is there just a lack of incentive from us or something? If it's just a game that's hard to cover with plain text, we do offer formatting for guides to add images and other formatting to the guide, so I'm assuming that isn't the problem.
Is there anything that we can do to help encourage submissions, or is it just a lost cause?

Hey SBAllen.
It's because there are other websites that do it better, simply put.
Other websites have the images from the game that are programmed into the site, so people use that instead. They have a more specific and precise way than just text.
I really think it's a lost cause because the first result when you google League of Legends guides are a bunch of other websites.
It's all about the format.
Other sites have better formats.

I was wondering this too, that ConductorSix guy would do a pretty good job of making guides (since he pretty much does it on the forum already)
I think the problem is that with the way riot nerfs/buffs champions, the guides would need to be updated so often that people are just not really up to it.

Yes, i i do try hard http://www.lowbird.com/data/images/2012/08/imgur-dofor.jpg
All the other League of Legends guide sites have better formats, such as solomid.net.
"I'm no hero, never was, never will be. I'm just an old killer hired to do some wet work." - Solid Snake.
A lot of updates and constant changes, requiring more attention. Also, more resources and reliable guides around.

I didn't know GameFAQs guides could have images until just now.
"hello i'm laqifunterest and you're watching dosney channel" - DarkestPanda
"Gift means poison. He's going to poison you." - g-cube_masta
Mostly because there are sites like Solomid, Mobafire and LolKing that contain numerous, updated guides (Most patches have drastic changes for all champions) and it would be a pain for everyone to keep updating guides.

Solomid.net is already an incredibly popular website for guides. Plus, they have plugins to make pictures of items, build order, runes, and masteries which are easier to read than text

Ahhh….who doesn't like a good deal? Some of you REALLY like a good deal and in some cases aren't interested in dishing out $15 or more on makeup. It's ok, some of us just aren't up for splurging on cosmetics particularly in this economy. I'm sadly of the mentality that you get what you pay for but let's be honest here, sometimes cheap isn't THAT bad right?
If you're wanting cheap check out the slide show below for a few steals and deals to get your Cheap Beauty Love On!
If you're reading via RSS please visit my blog to enjoy the slideshow embedded in this post!
Feel free to tell us about your cheap beauty loves!
Dear Philosophy,
Me and you, we have chemistry, we have a connection babe. We've been friends for a long time now and we've gone through alot of highs and lows right?
So it should be ok that I address the issue of your QVC Today's Special Value.
I hate to be the one to break it to you.
But no one wants 64 ounces of Vanilla Birthday Cake in their shower. WTH? Don't build our hopes up for Today's Special Value and proceed to offer us enough shower gel to bath a small city with. Don't you know anything about me (us) at all? You know we love variety, you know we can't be true to a single shower gel for THAT long! How do you expect us to get through that big a shower gel? We may like it today but tomorrow we'll be on to the next best thing….we can't commit to 64 ounces, it's simply too MUCH!
I'm sorry but DO NOT WANT a 64 oz Shower Gel.
Next anniversary can we get something a bit more special?
k, thanks.
Love you!
P.S. I got a sample of Vanilla Birthday Cake and it doesn't even smell that great. Dude, talk about rubbing salt in an open wound…ouch!
P.S.S. If for some strange reason you DO need a big ass shower gel you can get yours from www.qvc.com
Ahh we all need a little beauty budgetin' in our life at the moment considering it's Summer and many of us want to get away on some sort of holiday or vacay.
Of course, this is the time we wanna save our nickles and dimes up to take away with us. I know I need some sort of down time. I'm plotting three upcoming weeks off and I can barely wait for it.
How about you?
Any Summer holiday on the rise?
Speakin' of saving money you can snag yourself a buck ninety nine lip gloss and bank the rest of your cash for a vacation.

Aztecs get bounce back test vs. Falcons
"I think this group of kids, if you've watched us practice, they've been good," Fisher said. "They've been receptive, responsive and responsible in terms of how they've practiced."
When they returned from Wyoming, they watched film of the six-point loss in which the Cowboys scored far too many lay-ups and slam dunks. The Aztecs were listless at times.
"We just didn't match their intensity," said point guard Xavier Thames, who had a rare off night, shooting 3 of 16 from the field while going 0-for-8 from 3-point range.
Said forward J.J. O'Brien of the team atmosphere since the lost, "It was still pretty positive. … When you keep winning they don't want you to get big-headed or complacent, so they get real hard on you. And I guess since we lost they don't want to be too harsh on us to get us down."
The Aztecs (21-2, 10-1 in Mountain West) got a nice break when New Mexico lost to Boise State on Wednesday to stay one game behind in the regular-season conference race. There are seven league games remaining, four at home, starting with the Falcons (4-8, 10-13).
People think of Air Force as having programs as tidy as a cadet's bed, but that hasn't been the case this year for the basketball team. It has been a season of distractions, from assistant coach Drew Long's cancer diagnosis to the benching of leading scorer Tre Coggins, who missed three straight games – all losses – for disciplinary reasons.
Coggins has been back for two games, though he had only three points in a win on Wednesday over San Jose State. He was all the Aztecs could handle in their mid-January, 79-72 victory at Colorado Springs, scoring 29 points.
"With Air Force's movement and the way they play, he gets opportunities a lot of different ways," Fisher said. "But we have to do a better job defending him."
SDSU overcame Coggins with O'Brien's double-double (18 points,11 rebounds) and 13 points from Matt Shrigley, who scored 13 coming off the bench for 17 minutes.
"I think we did a good job of using our size and athleticism," O'Brien said of the first meeting. "We have to do a better job of guarding the ball. They beat us a lot on just dribble-drives. So we need to get better in that area, but overall, I think we did a pretty good job of rebounding and using our size and athleticism in our press to get easy buckets."

Algorithm Predicts US Supreme Court Decisions 70% of Time 177
from the telling-the-future dept.
We've improved Slashdot's video section; now you can view our video interviews, product close-ups and site visits with all the usual Slashdot options to comment, share, etc. No more walled garden! It's a work in progress -- we hope you'll check it out (Learn more about the recent updates).
Nonsense, an editorial screed by the New Yorker is meaningless. And if you want to bring context into it, you'll lose even harder.
Firstly, judicial review wasn't even a principle until Marbury v Madison in 1803. So we're talking about the 19th century only.
In cases in the 19th Century, the Supreme Court ruled pretty much only that the Second Amendment does not bar state regulation of firearms. (For example, in United States v. Cruikshank, 92 U.S. 542, 553 (1875), the Court stated that the Second Amendment âoehas no other effect than to restrict the powers of the national government,â and in Presser v. Illinois, 116 U.S. 252, 265 (1886), the Court reiterated that the Second Amendment âoeis a limitation only upon the power of Congress and the National government, and not upon that of the States.â )
Although most of the rights in the Bill of Rights have been selectively incorporated into the rights guaranteed by the Fourteenth Amendment and thus cannot be impaired by state governments, the Second Amendment has never been so incorporated.
It's only since 1939 United States v Miller, that federal court decisions considering the Second Amendment have largely interpreted it as preserving the authority of the states to maintain militias - not the '150 year history' stated in the deliberately-misleading text of the quoted article.
(much of the above is clipped verbatim from http://www.loc.gov/law/help/se... [loc.gov])
In fact, it's ONLY in the latter 20th Century that we've even HAD this debate, as all constitutional commentary and understanding previous to that was universal in its understanding of the 2nd Amendment as an individual right, *not* dependent on being in a militia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S... [wikipedia.org]
Of course, you further disregard that according to the US code, all males from 17-44 *are* by default in the militia. (http://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/10/311)

OK Go return with a fantastic video filled with camera tricks for the song "The Writing's On The Wall". I don't really know anyone who is a fan of their music (I almost feel like this song was written just so they could do a video with a bunch of text illusions on walls) but it's impossible to deny their ability to create truly incredible videos time and time again.
Watch "The Writing's On The Wall" below!
A whole lot of markers must have been used in this hand-drawn animation for Metronomy's "Reservoir", directed by Daniel Brereton (previously posted here and here). Watch the video below.
Love the production on this song by Edinburgh, Scotland-based hip hop trio, Young Fathers. Watch the video for "Get Up" from their debut album Dead, below.
Not really sure why you would get Mike Giant to draw with markers for a song called "Aerosol Can" but it is an excuse to watch Mike Giant draw with markers. Watch the video for Major Lazer's "Aerosol Can" featuring Pharrell Williams below.
"Run" is a short film by directors Matt Larson and Zack Spiger, featuring several songs by Talisco, from his debut album of the same name. I like when these multi-track videos are done well. The story kinda gets a little lost by the end, but this film certainly has a spectacular opening, and gorgeous cinematography throughout. FYI: There's a little violence and nudity here.
Watch "Run" below.
Best track title award goes to "Pope's Sinister Laugh" by En2ak. The producer and dj duo are from Wroclaw, Poland. A beauty of a video, directed by Karolina Poryzała and Monika Kotecka. Watch it below!
I saw Vikesh Kapoor perform the other night, armed with a guitar and a harmonica (there were some Bob Dylan vibes for sure). I wanted to share one of his songs with you called "Bottom of the Ladder".
The video below was made by Randy Sterling Hunter and Zia Anger, the same ones who did that video for Angel Olsen. Once again they've exposed and re-wound a single roll of 16mm film to create the visuals.

Advice, please -- new orchid growing roots in air!
I am new to orchids and was given a hybrid from a friend. I do not know the type -- sorry, there were no tags on the plant -- but it had beautiful, delicate spidery-like orange blooms. The flowers are now spent and the plant is growing what looks like white roots halfway UP the plant in the air! Does this mean that I should separate the plant where the roots are and pot the new one? If so, how would that be done safely? Or is the plant telling me something else?
Thank you in advance for any advice you can give!
Lindsey :)
Hello and thanks for your quick reply, richardol!
No, the orchid flowers I had were much smaller with shorter petals, alhtough the colors are identical. Sorry I don't have any photos of it. The plant is *not* growing out of the pot; it literally has white roots shooting out of the leaves about halfway up the plant, as if it is splitting off and forming a new plant! What a mystery! Do I cut it off below the roots and start a new plant?
Lindsey :)
Growth habit sounds like an epidendrum to me. See link below
Here is a link that might be useful: epidendrum
Thanks, all, for offering to help! I took a picture of the orchid plant and the "air roots". The URL is:
Any advice is welcome! Thank you! :):
That is most likely a dendrobium. There are hundreds of hybrids so it will be almost impossible to ID without a tag.
And it is normal for these plants to produce baby plants (keiki) from anywhere along their cane segments.
Its hard to tell from the photo angle, but it looks like that keiki behind the mother cane is big enough to detach and start its own pot.
I see at least 5 leaves on it?
To "wetfeet101b"... is that the rule of thumb, then, that the baby plant can be detached when there are five or more leaves present?
Also, what is the proper and safe way to detach the baby plant? Does he need any special care when being planted? (I have orchid mix and orchid food but don't want to overwhelm or burn him; any tips would be greatly appreciated!)
Thank you again!
Lindsey :)
just pop the plant off at the place where it attaches to the mother cane. Dab a bit of ground cinnamon on the broken area, let it dry for a bit, then just pot up.
The better rule of thumb, actually, is that a keiki needs at least three to five roots of an inch or so long, before being separated from the mother plant.
Also, since you are essentially dealing with a seedling, pot in a pot just large enough to accomodate the roots in a fine/moisture retentive media. It won't need as much of a dry-out as the adult plant, as it doesn't have the water/food stores of an adult.
Hi Lindsey,
there are no rules when separating keikis from the parent plant, just guidelines. The keiki right now is getting nutrients from the main plant and will continue to do so until you separate it. I would personally wait until there are at least two moderately sized pseudobulbs on the keiki and a new growth emerging before removing it from the mother plant. Orchids store energy reserves in their pseudobulbs and a small plant with just one pseudobulb doesn't have much of a chance of surviving unless you have ideal conditions.
If you have a greenhouse or a terrarium where the keiki can be in intensive care until it establishes itself, go ahead and detach it. If not, I would advise otherwise. Ultimately its up to you though, it depends on how much you are willing to pamper it. Keep in mind that if it doesn't make it, the mother plant can still produce more keikis in the future for you to practice on :)
Good luck!
By the way, the cinnamon acts as an antifungal. Don't sprinkle too much especially on the roots as it also prevents root growth if too much is applied.
I am new to the forum and can see that this is an old thread, but I cannot see a more recent thread on this and I also have a keiki that has grown on an orchid about half a year after we bought it (I think it is a Phalaenopsis orchid, and it seemed to do well, it flowered twice during the first six months).
I have only now understood that this is a keiki - we didn't realise we should separate it when the roots started growing - and now it's about to flower AND the stem with the flowers and new leaves on it is growing in the same direction as the 'air roots' are, and not in the direction of the leaves around which the new root system has developed, so it seems impossible to separate it. How can to make sure the plant will continue to grow?
I would very much appreciate advice from someone more experienced with keikis - I hope the image is clear enough.
Thank you!
You can separate that keikei for sure! Just gently pull it away from the stem and it should come right off. Notice the leaves are pointing away from the light. The spike is growing towards the light, that is why the spike did not grow in the direction of the leaves. Potting that up may be difficult, once you orient the plant into its new pot the spike will be down inside the pot. So you will have to remove it. I know that stinks but you can wait until the flowers bloom so you could enjoy them at least. Then if you want to pot it up you will remove the spike and proceede with the potting up.
I hope this helps!
Yes, that is very helpful, thank you! I will wait for the flowers to bloom, there are seven of them and it would be a shame to remove the spike now, but I'll follow your advice once the flowers have passed.
I do hope the new orchid will continue to bloom this abundantly :)
Many thanks!
My orchids are growing healthy green leaves and roots but flowers are few. I had the orchids outside in a shaded area in the summer and was fertilizing with dilute manure tea and rain water every 2 weeks or so. Indoors they are near a southeast window. I have been using a commercial orchid fertilizer every 2 weeks and watering every week. They get sprayed with water whenever I think of it.
What do I need to do to get more flowers?

Evaluation of Femtosecond Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy for Analysis of Animal Tissues
Applied Spectroscopy, Vol. 62, Issue 10, pp. 1137-1143 (2008)
Acrobat PDF (377 KB)
The aim of this work was to evaluate the performance of femtosecond laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (fs-LIBS) for the determination of elements in animal tissues. Sample pellets were prepared from certified reference materials, such as liver, kidney, muscle, hepatopancreas, and oyster, after cryogenic grinding assisted homogenization. Individual samples were placed in a two-axis computer-controlled translation stage that moved in the plane orthogonal to a beam originating from a Ti:Sapphire chirped-pulse amplification (CPA) laser system operating at 800 nm and producing a train of 840 μJ and 40 fs pulses at 90 Hz. The plasma emission was coupled into the optical fiber of a high-resolution intensified charge-coupled device (ICCD)–echelle spectrometer. Time-resolved characteristics of the laser-produced plasmas showed that the best results were obtained with delay times between 80 and 120 ns. Data obtained indicate both that it is a matrix-independent sampling process and that fs-LIBS can be used for the determination of Ca, Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Na, and P, but efforts must be made to obtain more appropriate detection limits for Al, Sr, and Zn.

I have a huge problem with dark under eye circles, not helped by the fact that I work nights and I am extremely pale, but this definitely has helped them look much better. It also has the immediate benefit of making your eyes look brighter and more awake
really love this! It does not irritate my skin like a lot of eye creams do!
I've tried many eye creams over the years ... and when I received a sample packet of this, I knew I was hooked! Great price, and I've definitely seen results over the past couple of months of using this.
LOVE this eye cream! I have extremely sensitive skin and also tend to break out so I need to be very careful with the products I use. This eye cream is super hydrating but gentle on my sensitive skin too. I highly recommend this product!
I received a sample of this product in one of my orders from Tarte. It is one of the best eye creams that I have tried. I will definitely be picking this product up! :)
I received this as a sample with my order. It is by far the most hydrating eye cream I've ever tried. It also smells very fresh, not too heavy. I will be purchasing the full size when my current eye cream is finished.
I love Tarte products, and I am slowly making my way to trying them all, and this was in one of my most recent hauls. It did not disappoint! Love it!
i just use a sample but it is awesome!
so i put it in my account and decide to buy it next time with other stuff
LOVE this eye cream! It's the first one that I've gotten that didn't make my eyes all red and give me a rash. I have seriously sensitive skin so, I am always afraid to try a new product! I will definitely purchase this again. The price is a little scary but, once you apply and realize that a little goes a long way, you can really justify purchasing it!
I got a sample of this in my last Tarte order and I love this stuff. a little bit goes a long way and it is the perfect under-eye cream. It has a nice texture, goes on smooth and sinks in quickly. I will definitely by buying this product when my sample runs out
I received the sample jar in the 12 days collection and I absolutely love it!! I still have some left but am getting very close to needing a full size jar and I will definitely be picking it up!!
I got a sample of this product and I really love, it definitely makes a visible change. I like to put this on every night and in the morning I don't look as tired.
I haven't had this product for very long, but it seems amazing! It has a very cooling effect and I will definitely repurchase this eye treatment.
This eye cream is very hydrating and a little goes a long way! I can definitely tell a difference in the hydration levels of the skin around my eyes and it helps keep dark bags from appearing after sleepless nights. The only thing I wish is that it was a bit cheaper. It's a bit high in price for the amount you get but that being said, it will still last you awhile. I use mine 2x a day and it's lasted me over a month.
5 out of 5! Very hydrating eye cream. Most eye creams I have tried cause some sort of allergic reaction. This is the first that my eyes love! No irritation and hydration lasts all day. Plus a little goes a long way. My husband even started using it and gave it a thumbs up. Great product!

MINNEAPOLIS -- Minnesota Lynx star Maya Moore poured in a franchise record 48 points to lead her team past Atlanta 112-108 in double overtime last night at the Target Center. Moore continued her torrid scoring pace this season, connecting on 16 of 31 shots. The 48 points were the second most ever scored in any WNBA game.

Distorted tomatoe leaves

I'm having problems with my tomato plants. I have them in pots and about 9 of 15 started to present fern like leaves and the new branches are thinner than normal. Some of the leaves are completely distorted as you can see in the pictures I uploaded. Does anyone knows what's going on with them?

Volunteers Sought For 1813 Flag Project
By editor
Good morning. I'm David Greene.
The Fourth of July weekend is over, but celebrations continue, and I'm not talking about left-over fireworks. The Maryland Historical Society is recreating the flag that flew over Fort McHenry during the Battle of Baltimore 200 years ago. Mary Pickersgill and four others sewed the original Star Spangled Banner in 1813. Now volunteers will recreate it using the same type of fabric, stitching and time frame. They have six weeks to complete the 30-by-40 foot flag.
It's MORNING EDITION. Transcript provided by NPR, Copyright NPR.

County to request bonding for Gateway, Red Rock
A few months ahead of the 2014 legislative session, local officials are lining up state bond requests for two large transit projects.
A $5 million request to fund the Gateway Corridor and another $1 million for the Red Rock Corridor are part of Washington County's legislative agenda this year.
County officials tried to get $1 million in both 2012 and 2013 legislative sessions, but didn't receive any state funds for the Gateway Corridor.

3D In the 1950s, 3D cinema was supposed to save moviegoing from the ravages of newfangled television techology. But it turned out to be a classic gimmick: a technological response to what was really a market problem. Consumers weren't choosing TV over the movies because movies lacked spectacle; they chose it because it filled the need for casual entertainment in the convenience of their living room. If moviegoing was to compete with television it would have to be with more compelling product, not more spectacle. Read More »

When you're GeoHot, you're hot; when you're Howard Stringer, you're not
Hackers What a striking contrast in the fortunes of Sony chairman and CEO Sir Howard Stringer, and those of George Hotz, the hacker formerly known as GeoHot, who was sued by Sony earlier this year for cracking the PS3 security system.
Facing frustrated, and at times hostile, shareholders at Sony's annual meeting Tuesday, Stringer acknowledged that the lawsuit against Hotz triggered a backlash from hacker groups that led to the devastating cyber-attack on Sony's PlayStation Network and Qriocity network in May and June.

Netflix looks for new friends on Facebook
Deals Netflix obviously wasn't kidding when it announced earlier this year that a "major" integration with Facebook was in the works. Last Thursday, the two companies announced the Netflix CEO Reed Hastings will join the Facebook board of directors, about as close an integration as you can get without a formal merger.
Oddly, the announcement didn't actually tell us much about how Netflix actually plans to use Facebook or what the integration will consist of. Much of the speculation triggered by the announcement focused on potential operational aspects of the integration, most of which could be achieved without tying the companies together at the board level. Presumably, then, there are other, more strategic reasons why Facebook's CEO Mark Zuckerberg would want Hastings on his board, and why Hastings would want the seat. Read More »
The limits of unlimited movies
Box Office Lots of buzz this morning about MoviePass, a start-up hoping to bring Netflix-style all-you-can-eat subscriptions to the big screen. For $50 a month, MoviePass subscribers will be able to see unlimited movies in theaters using their smartphones as a ticket.
Using the MoviePass web app (native iOS and Android apps are in the works), subscribers can search for movies and showtimes at participating theaters, reserve their seat and then flash their phone screens at the box office when they get to the theater as proof of purchase. The service will initially be available only in the San Francisco Bay Area but plans call for rolling it out to other cities later this year. Users will be charged a $3 premium if they choose a 3D screening. The app will also let users pre-order the movie they just saw on DVD or VOD on their way out of the theater. Read More »
Site-blocking battle going global
Copyright From virtually a standing start in the U.S. last year the debate over blocking access to so-called rogue web sites that host copyright infringing content has escalated rapidly into a worldwide battle.
Last week, a group of leading technology investors and venture capitalists sent a letter to members of the U.S. Congress warning that the Protect IP Act (PIPA), which was approved by the Senate Judiciary Committee in May, could stifle innovation and harm U.S. competitiveness around the world.
"The bill is ripe for abuse, as it allows rights-holders to require third-parties to block access to and take away revenues sources for online services, with limited oversight and due process," the group said. "While we understand PIPA was originally intended to deal with "rogue" foreign sites, we think PIPA will ultimately put American innovators and investors at a clear disadvantage in the global economy."

Wild rice season opened Friday
Minnesota's wild rice harvesting season is open from Friday, Aug. 15, to Tuesday, Sept. 30. Despite the season dates, harvesters must first ensure the rice is ripe before launching their canoes, according to the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources.
Minnesota's green rice law does not allow the harvesting of unripe rice, and the late spring means some rice stands may be slow to mature.
