I think there was another dungeon somewhere else. 22-10-2018 07:21:39 < Devastator!chatzilla@aaia-5v9on9tw1zth1dhtk5cmu9ebr.ipv1.telus.net: So what plane are you getting Alice? 22-10-2018 07:23:36 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: It's up to Egan. 22-10-2018 07:24:14 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: Don't even know whether one can be bought yet, anyway. PW would have to let us pool glory, which would be a horrible idea. 22-10-2018 07:24:43 < Devastator!chatzilla@aaia-5v9on9tw1zth1dhtk5cmu9ebr.ipv1.telus.net: I could see that only for the purposes of vehicles. 22-10-2018 07:28:42 < Devastator!chatzilla@aaia-5v9on9tw1zth1dhtk5cmu9ebr.ipv1.telus.net: Other than that, yeah, bad idea. 22-10-2018 07:28:50 < Devastator!chatzilla@aaia-5v9on9tw1zth1dhtk5cmu9ebr.ipv1.telus.net: but vehicles that carry several people are team items already. 22-10-2018 07:50:17 < Devastator!chatzilla@aaia-5v9on9tw1zth1dhtk5cmu9ebr.ipv1.telus.net: Hmm, that's an idea. 22-10-2018 07:50:22 < Devastator!chatzilla@aaia-5v9on9tw1zth1dhtk5cmu9ebr.ipv1.telus.net: Maybe Saeko should try to make someone into a mage. 22-10-2018 08:07:37 < syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr: How would she go about that? 22-10-2018 08:08:02 < Devastator!chatzilla@aaia-5v9on9tw1zth1dhtk5cmu9ebr.ipv1.telus.net: strengthen the magic inside someone, and then a lot of fast thinking. 22-10-2018 08:09:19 < Devastator!chatzilla@aaia-5v9on9tw1zth1dhtk5cmu9ebr.ipv1.telus.net: go go 1d4+1 kno. 22-10-2018 08:18:51 < Devastator!chatzilla@aaia-5v9on9tw1zth1dhtk5cmu9ebr.ipv1.telus.net: "Top 12 worst Ruby characters." 22-10-2018 08:49:20 -!- parisbre56[Away]!parisbre56@ltj124929624549.access.hol.gr has joined #einsteinianroulette 22-10-2018 08:49:20 -!- Topic for #einsteinianroulette: Intergalactic Day of Mourning for 2016 (2016-2016) 22-10-2018 08:49:20 -!- Topic set by Remalle!Variety@i2246816zi629tu21.vc.shawcable.net [Tuesday 03 January 2017, 06:26:56] 22-10-2018 08:50:45 -!- parisbre`!parisbre56@ltj124929624549.access.hol.gr has quit [Ping timeout: 258 seconds] 22-10-2018 10:54:56 -!- syv!syvarris@104.136.rzg.vsr has quit [Quit: Definitely a psyv.] 22-10-2018 15:20:58 -!- er!androirc@426-56-103-637.mobile.uscc.net has joined #einsteinianroulette 22-10-2018 15:22:00 < er!androirc@426-56-103-637.mobile.uscc.net: Dark Souls without the Iframes would just get you to use any of the great shields in the game, though. 22-10-2018 15:22:02 < Devastator!chatzilla@aaia-5v9on9tw1zth1dhtk5cmu9ebr.ipv1.telus.net: "Man Accused of Nude Swim With Sharks Also Wanted for Assault at Medieval Times." 22-10-2018 15:22:40 < er!androirc@426-56-103-637.mobile.uscc.net: Who needs Iframes when you can just press L1 and take zero damage. 22-10-2018 15:23:20 < er!androirc@426-56-103-637.mobile.uscc.net: Put great magic shield on there and you'll even have infinite stability. 22-10-2018 15:24:20 -!- er!androirc@426-56-103-637.mobile.uscc.net has quit [Client Quit]
