02:43:04 midnightjaguar: I liked that game we played last night
02:44:20 midnightjaguar: I’ll have to finish MP 1961 so we can run one of those in here.
02:46:17 ER: I might think more about making a dramatic wizard dueling game that's easy to run on IRC or discord.
02:47:12 ER: Because that thing we played did not very much resemble Refine, and took longer for me to write due to attempting to follow the mechanics of that game. >_<
02:47:22 midnightjaguar: Heh, finish your Refine game first
02:49:47 midnightjaguar: So that then I can run a game after the apocalypse where everyone’s adapted to their magical girl apocalypse.
02:53:34 midnightjaguar: Nah my game would be set a bunch of years after the apolcalpyse where people just stop caring about the apocalypse and go about their business :P
02:55:53 ER: Ah. In my metaphysics, that's pretty much not an option.
02:57:07 ER: It's been several generations since civilization fell properly, though things were fucked in their own ways even before that.
02:57:52 ER: Everyone's used to the way the world works now, but they can't simply ignore it any longer, their survival relies on hunters.
03:00:28 midnightjaguar: New phone and it’s autocorrect is screwy
03:01:52 Devastator: Got through a couple more dungeons in Arena.
03:01:59 Devastator: Stuck on the current one, looking for a key.
03:03:28 Devastator: There's still spots to look through, though, so I'm not really stuck.
03:04:43 Devastator: I like the giant text in Dig.
03:05:28 midnightjaguar: I haven’t been following it honestly. I’ll probably do a bit archive read through sometime.

03:06:50 Devastator: I don't mean that, just the result from
syv and
RC holding up the game.
03:06:57 Devastator: "Don't do that, you idiots" in big giant text.
03:07:43 midnightjaguar: They do like to say that
03:08:21 Devastator:
Syv and
RC are holding up the game.
03:08:37 midnightjaguar: This also makes sense
03:13:43 Devastator: There's no sense here.
03:14:08 midnightjaguar: I suppose now I need to ask. What are they doing that’s holding up the game?
03:14:30 Devastator: I'm not sure, really.
03:14:38 ER: Also, hey
syv I found a cooler version of Adaptation/Semblance by merging it with Wound Elemental. You take a wound on your body and transform it into an adaptation. Make a gaping chest wound into a gaping jaw! Turn a broken arm into a mantis blade!
03:14:57 Devastator: something esoteric involving trying to blow something up with an incense stick.
03:15:48 midnightjaguar: Right so something like Tinker. Makes sense :P
03:17:26 midnightjaguar:
ER is this your game or his game? I admit I only glanced through the power list.
03:25:19 midnightjaguar: Anyway. I should probably get back to packing. See ya dudes.

05:48:33 Oz: I'm tempted to make a gmae action bet with you regarding whether chalice survives our current mission
05:48:46 Devastator: What are the terms?
05:48:54 Devastator: I might take them, or might not, depending on what happens.
05:51:05 Oz: I don't know. Off the top of my head, and it sounds mean, but: If Chalice closes, you attempt to murder Random in another rtd. If it doesn't, I'd do an equivalent action in one of the RTDs I am in.
05:56:00 Oz: randomgenericusername. You know, the guy who traded three powerful Chalice words for a set of silver armor
05:57:57 Devastator: Aight, what games is RGU in that I am as well?
06:00:34 Devastator: He's the undead guy in Coven, that's a possibility.
06:01:43 Devastator: He's in Cabal, but Saeko isn't going to kill anyone wtihout a much better reason than that.
06:01:53 Devastator: What do you give up if I win the bet?
06:03:20 Devastator: Because you killing one of RGU's character doesn't seem like something of benefit to myself..
06:08:05 Oz: AN equivalent action, from your perspective
06:08:18 Oz: something worth the same amount of risk and effort
06:09:31 Oz: He's Bruford in Omega. But I'd have to try really ahrd to be impartial there.
06:09:54 Oz: he's already ditched like three characters? Or just hte two I guess
06:10:03 Oz: but Bruford is looking like another glass cannon
06:13:16 Devastator: Nah, I got one. You have to watch me stream something ancient that nobody plays. ;-p
06:15:03 Oz: maybe glass cannon isn't hte right word for random's characters in Omega
06:15:21 Oz: maybe more "functionally far less useful than they might have been"
06:16:45 Devastator: That applies to basically everyone, though.
06:17:02 Devastator: I mean, look at Nan's statsheet in Coven, for instance. It isn't 'super op character.'
06:17:18 Oz: "havign the appearance of power, but cmpletely useless
06:25:21 Devastator: Nah, people actually play 'toads sometime. It would be something more obscure.
06:41:59 Devastator: I don't know if I'd call an enormous iron golem any kind of glass cannon character.
06:42:29 Oz: he's got a cursed movement stat
06:45:01 Devastator: Should be fun. Is Freddie goign to get squashed?
06:46:14 Oz: Depends on random. You seem to think he's a reliable teammate for some reason, so you should be optimistic about your chances
06:46:57 Oz: I am not above killing multiple characters due to one's stupidity. I'd think the players would have learned this by now ... thogh it HAS been a while since I did so
06:47:20 Oz: I suppose mostly just pan, lenglon and spaz would remember
06:51:57 Devastator: I don't think he's statistically any different than anyone else as per reliable teammates.
06:53:18 Devastator: Some are better, some are worse, but he isn't a particular outlier.
06:54:07 Devastator: Heh, though, Bruford, the character that gets more mobile if someone cut his leg off.
06:55:09 Oz: I think he's in my bottom three in terms of active players
06:55:21 Oz: can you guess who the other two active unreliables are?
06:55:39 Devastator: Not a bad person, but very heavy on the RP.
06:57:37 Oz: I don't enconter Nakeen enough t oconsider him reliable or unreliable
06:57:59 Devastator: Stuck together with everyone else in Pumsy's by sitting behind.
06:58:34 Oz: Pumsy's is supposed to be heavy RP, so you only have yourself to blame for that
06:58:44 Oz: well, yourself and
sy, ofcourse
06:58:54 Oz: but mostly yourself, since you created that monster
06:59:59 Devastator:
Syv created the monster.
07:00:11 Devastator: I made him create it by threatening to turn Ben into a purple catgirl.
07:00:30 Devastator: He shouldn't have asked me for motivation.
07:04:45 Devastator: Of course now he wants me to turn Nan into a catgirl..
07:07:47 Devastator: I think I might make a minion do the catgirl thing.
07:10:28 Oz: no idea what the situation is. I don't follow which ever game that is
07:17:53 Devastator: It's the one where
NJW is running a witch coven. Most anything goes, but the bad guys are often built like PCs and have broken abilities of their own, so it can be tricky.
07:27:02 Devastator: My character is a fame vampire, but in return for some extra benefits, gets eaten or enslaved by a mammoth demon if I screw up.
07:29:50 Oz: I remember thatbit, I think
07:29:57 Oz: HTat game has been going on quite a while now
07:30:14 Devastator: Yeah,
NJW idled it for some time. There will probably be an update next week.
07:30:20 Devastator: There was one last week.
07:32:46 Devastator: She gets an extra stat point, a slight buff to using magical weaponry, and superhuman attractiveness and charisma.
07:36:48 Devastator: In return I need to do extra missions, and be always at risk of getting murdered by my friends as well as my enemies. ;-p
07:40:12 Oz: sounds like you haven't put enough restrictions on yourself
07:40:25 Oz: maybe next time start requiring some kind of headwear?
07:41:13 Devastator: I also had to spend time to get the stat point and the magical weaponry buff.
07:41:27 Devastator: time other people did for more productive bonuses, such as going undead or buying nice guns or such.
07:42:32 Devastator: Where the fun comes in is that I can get anything I want given time and sufficient effort, instead of having to pick and choose stuff, so if I plan it out, I can get really nice stuff.
07:42:41 Devastator: And useless stuff like making
syv's character into a catgirl. ;-p
07:43:54 Oz: I suppose so. no one levels stats over time the usual way then?
07:44:21 Devastator: Nah, everyone levels up normally.
07:44:24 Devastator: but so does my character.
07:44:31 Devastator: ..if I do double-duty with missions.
07:46:34 Devastator: in general, though, there's extra stuff available if others put the time into it.
07:54:02 Oz: so you're working twice as hard for that single stat point than the others. well played
08:01:24 Devastator: Yeah, but that handicap is pretty refreshing.
08:01:32 Devastator: And it means I can threaten to turn people into catgirls. ;-p
08:03:13 Devastator: (Actually, I'm looking at getting a suprising amount of power during the combat portion of the upcoming mission, which might cause odd problems, but it should be refreshing.)
08:05:58 Devastator: (I also didn't list the most OP power I have.. the ability to put convincing magical illusions on stuff.
08:07:15 Devastator: It isn't infinitely powerful.. I have to charge it with my mana pool, I can only do things that I'm near, and it only lasts while I'm around, but it's very useful.
08:21:51 Devastator: Hmm, that looks interesting.
08:22:55 Devastator: only big drawback is that it seems to actively limit your size by time, but that could be workable.
08:28:06 Oz: I saw that somewhere. Where did I see that?
08:28:33 Oz: I passed because industry and factories are things I play gaimes to avoid, not to dwell upon
08:28:59 Devastator: I like them, personally, probably the most complicated things ever built by human beings.
08:29:12 Devastator: There's more to life than that, but I find them fun.
08:29:23 Devastator: Can understand that pov, though.
08:29:51 Oz: factories aren't as complicated as all that. Road systems are probably more so
08:30:13 Oz: perhaps I should say transportation systems at large
08:31:09 Oz: but try working in them for two decades and tell me how much you love them then
08:31:12 Devastator: Maybe, but roads are more modular, and factories transport stuff too. Energy, for instance.
08:31:17 Devastator: Yeah, can see that.
08:31:37 Devastator: (and I've worked in factories and not-factories and outside)
08:31:40 Oz: literally everythign 'transports stuff' if you are gonna be pedantic
08:32:25 Devastator: As bad as it is, I'm just not cut out for the services. I much prefer having a product of some kind that I'm in some way related to.
08:35:39 Devastator: It can be fun as a hobby sometimes.
11:22:25 Devastator: Freddie may be submissive, but one of the people in front of him is both bigger than himself and made of solid metal.
11:36:40 Oz: yeah? I thoughtFreddie was essentially a tank buster with no real concern for personal safety against bigger opponents
11:37:02 Oz: play him as you like, fo course.
11:38:16 Devastator: Well, for the most part, but he does have one leg and can't fly or walk now.
11:38:22 Devastator: And he's supposed to be smarter.
11:38:34 Devastator: It might be different if he was functioning, or if Buford was made out of something he could eat.
11:39:03 Oz: Fair enough. I figured he'd want to mark his territory though. This is his place, these guys are outsiders, except possibly Kongor.
11:40:36 Devastator: Yeah, but this isn't his cave.
11:40:45 Devastator: If they were in his cave, yeah.
