title: Log4j Doesn't Log Messages
body: <p>So I am programming a game and I decided I should switch from <code>System.out.println</code> to an actual logging api and decided to use Log4j. I followed a tutorial to use the basic configuration but when I call <code>logger.info(&quot;string stuff&quot;);</code> it doesn't actually log anything.
  I have:</p>
  <pre class="lang-java prettyprint-override"><code>public static final Logger logger = Logger.getLogger(&quot;Main.class&quot;);
  </code></pre>
  <p>And</p>
  <pre class="lang-java prettyprint-override"><code>public static void main(String[] args) {
       BasicConfigurator.configure();
       logger.info(&quot;Starting Game...&quot;);
  }
  </code></pre>
