Okay… check MacAddict’s original post again. The videos should be working.

A little while ago, Imgur apparently decided that they didn’t want people embedding GIFV’s with <iframe>, so they changed their embedding policy to prevent that behavior. Note that there is zero documentation on their site about this change. Asshats.

They have a different method that uses JavaScript to replace a <blockquote> element. I’ve updated the site to use this method, but note that this will *only* affect new/edited posts going forward. Any older posts have already been parsed by the server into the <iframe> format, so those won’t work. And I’m pissed at Imgur, so I’m not going to spend my time today writing a script to parse old posts for gifv tags and convert them into the new format. I have real work to do.

Good man. You sir are better than Imgur.

I was having a bad day as well. I am stuck doing some dumb stuff in early modern English that kind of forced me to go into a Latin dictionary to find antedates for Latin roots of English words.

But, something cool happened that lightened my mood! I opened it up, and saw a seal on the front page. It was donated to the university library posthumously by Keith Denning from his personal library, the VERY GUY whose work I was checking! I like to think he would enjoy that a student of his work is fact checking his research with his own personal dictionary, if he wasn't dead.

Still not sure if he's right or I'm right, it might be a semantic thing, but I think it was neat. Make sure to enjoy the little stuff in life as it comes!

They have actually changed their entire embedding method so they can advertise themselves more prominently.

I'm impressed.

Thanks for this. I hadn't even thought to look for new embedding code.

I’ve updated the site to use this method, but note that this will *only* affect new/edited posts going forward. Any older posts have already been parsed by the server into the <iframe> format, so those won’t work.

Because of the pretty slick way that this forum handles processed code (imo - I didn't write it, I just like it), making Beorn's changes work for all older posts was pretty trivial (I needed to delete 75 entries from the cache table).

All old posts that (properly) use the forum's gifv code should show gifvs using the new embed code.

I have real work to do.

If you could work on the Cody to Kermit auto translator that would help me so much!

In that last clip, I'm actually coming up behind your opponent trying to save you. Shortly after you fall off, I run him down and shoulder charge him.

I was wondering if he actually died after the shoulder charg. How did he live after the shoulder charge?

Hmm, now I don't remember if that was the guy that I failed to kill because lag + defender bubble kept him alive.

I just figured he shoulder charged off the edge over my head when I fell down. But as you can see in the video, I never saw him when I turned around.
