00:06:02 Devastator: might be GRRM's fame.. I've heard he's not healthy.
00:24:00 Piecewise_: He's an old obese man, which is generally not healthy
00:28:16 Devastator: could do some more doomrl if you'd like.
00:32:16 Piecewise_: wanna give aliensrl a try for some variety?
00:34:07 Devastator: ..Nah, I want to get that rank before switching games. I won't be in the mood for doomrl for much longer, so want to play mostly it.
00:37:45 Devastator: needs more cheat codes.
01:05:49 MidJag_: Wait, I thought DOOM RL had some Cease and desit order so it was way harder to find now.
01:09:03 Piecewise_: anything can be found
01:09:14 Devastator: I don't have the current vesion anyway.
01:09:18 Piecewise_: also the guy making it is now making a new game called Jupiter Hell
01:09:18 Devastator: got it a long time ago.
01:09:31 Piecewise_: which is basically the same but with graphics
01:09:46 Devastator: If you do play it I recommend using the graphical version, anyway.
01:09:55 Devastator: there's some cheaty stuff where sometimes it shows you what's out of bounds.
01:10:45 Piecewise_: Its still available but now its "D**M RL"
01:10:59 Devastator: Yes, I have that version.
01:11:28 Piecewise_: "Stop calling it doom"
01:11:37 Piecewise_: "Ok, I'll call it D**M"
01:12:03 Devastator: ok, lets see if Noon Kitten the technician can luck out with the nuclear plasma rifles.
01:16:37 Devastator: unlucky phobos entry.
01:19:31 Devastator: Ugh, 13 shotgun shells upon entering the arena, but got an early chaingun.
01:19:38 Devastator: level 2 generated zero shotgunners.
01:22:00 Devastator: Yeah.. just not workable.
01:27:48 Devastator: Next try gets hit with virtually every single bullet and goes down the stairs to find shotgunners flanking him and a teleporter that moves more enemies into the stairs entrance.
01:33:17 Devastator: I'm not good enough for it, though.
01:33:54 Devastator: avoid most combat, abuse berzerk packs, pimp your armour, use melee skills.
01:34:09 Devastator: which apply to fists too.
01:37:08 Devastator: I think the fist-only runs are up in platinum level, though, which are beyond the vast majority of players.
01:40:58 Devastator: okay, forgot that Scavenger blocks Berzerker.
01:41:28 Devastator: so dropping the Unholy Cathedral from this run, which means I don't need melee skills. Should make things a lot easier.
01:43:00 Devastator: Melee-only special level.
01:43:20 Devastator: If you want to clear it you want Berzerker, which is two Brute melee damage perks first.
01:43:34 Devastator: You can get by without berzerker if you get like the double chainsaw, which you can't always count on.
01:44:25 Devastator: You can get by without both if you get that and shove two accuracy packs in it as well.
01:44:54 Piecewise_: What happens if you put all the mods in your shoes?
01:44:56 Devastator: or have the scout bonus melee stat that lets you dual-wield weapons.
01:45:09 Devastator: the extra durability shoes aren't much use, though.
01:45:21 Piecewise_: what about very accurate shoes
01:45:31 Devastator: Those make you move fast.
01:46:26 Devastator: There are other complicated ways through the cathedrel, based on odd items or really good skills or both.
01:46:40 Devastator: or an invulerability globe near the entrance and a nuke.
01:46:53 Devastator: ..but that doesn't get you the spear. ;-p
01:48:53 Devastator: This one's going better. Ranged combat levels are much better than melee ones for ranged fighting.
01:48:55 Devastator: and fighting much better.
01:51:53 Devastator: I forgot how much better the chaingun is with +4 to hit.
02:31:40 ER has joined #einsteinianroulette
02:32:16 MidJag_:
ER what day works best for the one sht?
02:33:12 MidJag_: Wensday or Thursday work?
02:45:59 Piecewise_: hey
er, you ever consider ripping off STALKER for that game you pitched? Stalker's ultimate villain was effectively a bunch of dreamers messing up reality. Noosphere disaster is pretty untrodden ground.
02:46:30 Devastator: Except that series I got Leo from.
02:47:09 ER: It involves dreams, but more as a symptom than the cause.
03:14:06 Devastator: strengthen ability to drain mana until able to do it at range.
03:14:10 Devastator: then just keep going. ;-p
03:15:11 ER: Use that strengthen ability to go even farther beyond
03:15:21 ER: by consuming all the world's mana
03:21:57 Devastator: I don't think that'd work.
03:22:37 Piecewise_: You'd have to reach him first
03:41:15 Devastator: What would a ring that buffs speed sell for?
04:04:20 Devastator has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
04:11:12 Devastator has joined #einsteinianroulette
04:44:51 syv has joined #einsteinianroulette
04:46:43 Devastator: Also, looks like the forums stopped sucking.
04:46:55 ER: people have said that many times
04:47:17 syv: I am angry and irritated and tired and sad.
04:55:01 syv: Anyone want to watch a shitty anime or something?
04:55:46 MidJag_: ...oh no, this keyboards started acting up again.
04:56:21 MidJag_: Soon it will be time for it to break and for every other component to be replaced under warrenty once more.
04:56:35 MidJag_: but I have a backup that I like now :D
04:56:45 MidJag_: and I'm down to watch shitty anime
syv
04:57:17 Piecewise_: I always watch shitty anime
04:57:24 Devastator: my keyboard never breaks.
04:58:15 Piecewise_: I assume you want something streaming right?
04:59:20 Devastator: well, there's Mellowlink.
04:59:21 syv: I have Apocalypse Now, Gunslinger Girl, Evil Dead II, Memento, Black Hawk Down, Goblin Slayer, Short Piece (2013), Armor Hunter Mellowlink, Attack on Titan S2, and a few things none of you have.
05:00:06 Piecewise_: You'd be surprised what I have
05:00:07 syv: Also have Jormungand, I think, but only
ER grabbed that, and it wasn't exactly stellar. Good shitty anime, I guess.
05:00:36 syv: "Stella Women's Academy High School Division Class C3"?
05:00:38 Piecewise_: Did you try mellowlink at all?
05:00:57 Devastator: I wouldn't say it's taht good.
05:01:03 Devastator: Was that the thing
MJ was watching?
05:01:08 Devastator: He said it was utterly horrid.
05:01:16 Devastator: and nighmare-inducing.
05:01:28 Devastator: What was that horrid thing,
MJ?
05:02:04 Devastator: ooh, tachell update.
05:02:34 ER: kinda maybe tempted to watch more jormungand, if only because it could give me inspiration for an RTD themed around war profiteering~
05:02:46 Devastator: That seems like it might be trying too hard.
05:03:15 syv: If it has any chance at all of making you run anything even vaugely like it, then I agree, Jormungand all the fucking way
05:03:40 ER: everything has any chance at all of making me run anything like it.
05:04:25 syv: But yeah, out of that list, who here has what?
05:04:43 Devastator: I have mellowling and GS.
05:04:51 MidJag_: I might have Jor? and if I don't I can DL it real quick
05:04:53 Piecewise_: I have mellow link, Evil dead, goblin slayer, short piece
05:05:15 Piecewise_: I don't have the apocalypse now anime
05:05:43 Devastator: I think I have Black Hawk Down too.
05:06:00 ER: I have blackhawkdown, apocalpyse now, aot, jor. and I THINK evil dead
05:06:09 syv: I'd prefer BHD, to the surprise of nobody.
05:06:24 syv: But Dubs has GS, and he's apparently interested.
05:07:05 Devastator: I'm in no hurry tomorrow morning.
05:07:10 Devastator: can watch BHD later.
05:07:49 syv: I'm here for the next seven hours regardless of what y'all do, so...
05:07:59 syv: And I won't be here tomorrow night.
05:08:28 Devastator: so lets do some GS to know if we should bother, and then watch BHD after like 2 episodes.
05:08:30 MidJag_: Someone have alink or torrent or whatever for GS if that's what we are watching
05:09:11 Piecewise_: I think you can stream it here
05:09:55 syv: Kissanime is annoying as fuck to use, a torrent will be faster anyway.
05:10:17 syv:
MJ, make sure to set it to DL the first files first.
05:10:47 syv: Fuck it! Do all of you have Black Hawk Down?
05:12:07 ER: really not sure if I even want to watch something, might just go to sleep so that I'll be somewhat rested tomorrow
05:12:11 Devastator: although if we have BHD, just do that first.
05:12:27 ER: you can watch GS, I still don't want to
05:13:06 MidJag_: I do not have BHD, but if you've got a torrent I can almost guarantee it won't take long.
05:14:21 Piecewise_: I dunno if I'd call black hawk down a shitty anime
05:14:32 Piecewise_: Now Bee Movie, that was a shitty anime
05:14:47 Piecewise_: Osmosis jones was pretty good
05:15:02 MidJag_: I have a soft spot for OSmosis jones I'll admit.
05:15:06 Piecewise_: no bill murry fan service though
05:15:09 Devastator: could add magical girls in BHD.
05:15:21 Devastator: Be literal that way.
05:15:50 Devastator: Yes, that'd be sweet.
05:16:01 Devastator: Not Full Metal Skirts?
05:16:04 syv:
Dev, you do realize "Black Hawk Down" is literally the driving plot of the movie?
05:16:21 ER: the main problem is that I don't have any rules for it at all and don't know what I want to do with it~
05:16:36 ER: so if you just make the entire game for me I'd do it :P
05:16:37 syv:
ER: you sticking around if we watch BHD?
05:16:47 syv:
Dev: can you send
MJ BHD, if you haven't already?
05:16:50 Devastator: Yes, I've seen it before.
05:16:53 Devastator: and yes, I've done that.
05:16:58 Devastator: but I meant literal.
05:17:08 syv: Once I'm done with the CQB system (that will never happen) I'll adapt it for Magical Girls.
05:17:11 Devastator: the MGs are riding a bird. ;-p
05:18:34 MidJag_: It's kinda weird how movies are like determined in size, I've never fully understood how it works.
05:18:56 Devastator: compression x quality x length.
05:18:57 syv: I could explain it to you, but right now I want things to get moving.
ER?
05:19:31 Devastator:
MJ just finished BHD,
syv.
05:19:42 MidJag_: I have both I can do whatever
05:20:12 syv:
ER has no interest in GS, but I have interest in him watching BHD; ergo, GS.
05:20:16 Piecewise_: the episode that made the interent angry.
05:20:28 syv: It's almost like people dislike rape.
05:20:42 syv: I just didn't realize those people enjoyed anime.
05:20:48 Devastator: Only the right bad things can happen.
05:21:01 Piecewise_: I mean sure but you'd think you'd realize what you were getting into with GS
05:21:08 Piecewise_: its kind of known for that
05:21:20 Piecewise_: albeit the anime is FAR cleaner
05:21:41 syv: You think people don't complain because they knew things they dislike would happen?
05:22:02 syv: There's far too many people whining about Trump for that to be the case.
05:22:03 Devastator: I could see some people thinking that.
05:22:14 Devastator: I don't know, Trump's breaking new ground.
05:22:29 syv: Are we waiting on
PW, or does he just not know to say ready?
05:22:39 Devastator: ima gonna countdown.
05:23:09 syv: Waterdrops and shitty effects.
05:23:46 MidJag_: ....Why do his eyes glow actually.
05:24:02 Devastator: illiterate clerics?
05:24:17 MidJag_: I guess they have to ask everybody
05:24:18 Piecewise_: This show has an add aversion to naming anyone
05:24:21 Devastator: gotta play that character sometimes.
05:24:28 Devastator: Same in the Manga, actually.
05:24:31 syv: Let's name all them, then.
05:24:42 Piecewise_: also you see some paperwork and its literally a dnd character sheet
05:24:45 syv: Cleric girl is... "Lucina".
05:24:46 Devastator: That's Robo-Priest.
05:25:01 MidJag_: Isn't porcalin quite valuable back in the day?
05:25:21 Devastator: It's one of the protags from FE VI.
05:25:24 Devastator: And yes, extremely so.
05:25:30 MidJag_: He shall be named cut him self shaving
05:25:47 syv: Their eyes are too much. His voice definitely doesn't fit.
05:26:10 Devastator: Monk and Witch seem painfully generic.
05:26:45 Devastator: also liking razor's armour. How does it stay up anyway?
05:26:51 syv: They all die except for Lucina.
05:27:03 Devastator: Yes, you can tell from the level of detail.
05:27:17 MidJag_: You'd think they would have them express some training and such before they let them get a licenese
05:27:29 Devastator: Nope! That's what the bottom rank is for.
05:27:37 syv: "bare hands" girl is Putin.
05:27:54 MidJag_: Well yeah, but surely it would let a decent amount of the bottom ranks become more toped
05:27:55 Devastator: didn't need potions.
05:28:51 Devastator: Wow, really scraping the bottom of the competence scale here.
05:29:42 Piecewise_: Because she's ineffective and has a short lifespan~
05:29:51 syv: And now Mussolini gets gang raped.
05:30:06 Piecewise_: Well, penetration is involved
05:30:10 syv: Or, nopel stabbed the normal way.
05:30:33 Piecewise_: The pull out version that involves pulling the knife out
05:31:00 Devastator: Alec's doing reasonably well. I think he's killed five or six CR 1/4 enemies.
05:31:13 Devastator: About what you'd expect, really.
05:31:17 syv: And now he gets penetrated.
05:31:25 MidJag_: I wonder where the goblins get metal
05:31:50 syv: Ohp, Putin found someone stronger than her.
05:31:59 Devastator: Next time, activate CC. ;-p
05:32:15 Devastator: I think they call the big ones hobgoblins.
05:32:47 Devastator: ..I was expecting more from something everyone complained about.
05:33:15 Devastator: I mean, that wasn't clean, but it could have been a lot nastier.
05:33:27 syv: Yeah, it's ridiculously softer than the manga. zsomething about censorship laws, I imagine.
05:33:33 MidJag_: You know it is kinda weird that the spell didn't do anything.
05:33:34 Piecewise_: Honestly compared to the manga this thing is absurdly tame
05:33:43 MidJag_: I think it's explained in the manga but I can't rember why
05:33:43 Devastator: Heal, not Heal Posion.
05:34:02 MidJag_: That guy took defelct missile
05:34:12 Devastator: And armour that covers more than 10% of the body.
05:34:26 MidJag_: I don't love his voice
05:34:36 Piecewise_: Good thing he barely talks
05:34:41 MidJag_: It's like shadow the hedghog
05:34:42 syv: It sounds like he's trying way too hard to be a manly badass.
05:34:50 Piecewise_: wait are you watching dub or sub?
05:34:56 Devastator: He should have a really terrible voice.
05:35:06 Piecewise_: there's your problem
05:35:07 Devastator: dub with subs. I'll see what the jap VA sounds like.
05:35:26 MidJag_: Dude you push it through then break it off and tear it out.
05:35:29 Piecewise_: I honestly don't remember but it didn't stand out as bad in the sub
05:35:29 Devastator: Sounds less strained but low.
05:35:34 syv: I like typing and complaining about the show more than I like watching it. Jap requires reading subs, which makes typing harder.
05:35:51 Piecewise_: Gotta get that chameleon eye going
05:35:53 Devastator: but being half-deaf subs are as natural as breathing, really.
05:36:10 MidJag_: I like reading subs but I can't type.
05:36:25 MidJag_: So it's dubs for me all the way
05:36:42 syv: I can read subs fine, no issue, but my typing quality goes way down. Touchtyping is kinda difficult on a touchscreen.
05:36:42 Devastator: Maybe I shouldn't have started calling you dubs, dubs.
05:37:05 MidJag_: I do like that the made his voice muffled
05:37:58 MidJag_: Doesn't he only have a torch as well?
05:38:13 Devastator: He took Intuition 2. ;-p
05:38:26 syv: Sheik's got a sword, plus that knife he was stabbed with.
05:38:28 Devastator: and probably more than one torch.
05:39:06 Devastator: yeah, you can get the hang of where the enemies will be after a while.
05:39:07 MidJag_: ...Why does he not like blood on swords?
05:39:16 Devastator: I think he'll say in a minute.
05:39:55 MidJag_: oh Isn't it like mildly corrosive or something?
05:40:11 syv: Wow, Lucina struggles to jump a foot into the air.
05:40:20 Devastator: robes not good for jumping.
05:40:39 MidJag_: Also I don't think she's used to running in a a cave by torchlight
05:40:44 syv: Aww, those were some disappointing screams.
05:40:59 Piecewise_: Where is willhelm when you need him
05:41:01 Devastator: I'm sure he'll murder more goblins.
05:41:37 syv: Huh, Putin's in good shape. Wasn't she stabbed? With knives?
05:42:48 MidJag_: Plot twist sheik is a really tall goblin.
05:42:58 Devastator: two goblins standing on top of each other.
05:42:59 MidJag_: Also this a lot tmaer than what I expected
05:43:03 syv: Heh, now *that* would be a surprise.
05:43:22 Devastator: they were abandoned and raised by humans.
05:43:22 syv: Yeah, people whine over very minor stuff.
05:43:40 Piecewise_: Goblin slayer has the power of low budget cgi
05:43:42 MidJag_: I was expecting like a full on shot of him killing goblin kids.
05:44:02 syv: They're still kids, that's too explicit for rape anime!
05:44:33 Piecewise_: Honestly that rape scene is like...the only one in this entire show
05:44:38 Devastator: well, porcelain was brutally expensive a long way away from where it was made.
05:44:41 syv: Actually, Dubs, do you know of any *actual* rape anime that also contains fully visible murder of young children?
05:44:45 Piecewise_: unlike the manga where its every time
05:44:48 Devastator: Pfft, just magic up your robe.
05:44:52 MidJag_: Yeah the managa has a lot.
05:44:56 Devastator: steel cloth is way better than chain mail.
05:45:08 Piecewise_: rape and child murder?
05:45:09 Devastator: I think it happened three or four times in the manga, IIRC.
05:45:23 Piecewise_: Does Elfen Lied have that?
05:45:28 Piecewise_: Its pretty fucking edgy
05:45:31 syv: She seems excited for having just seen a woman being raped earlier that day, while the rest of her companions were being murdered.
05:45:49 Devastator: I think that's supposed to be like a week later.
05:45:52 MidJag_: I think Elfien lied has a child murder but I don't know if it has rape
05:46:11 Devastator: ..plus maybe she saw some shit at the temple.
05:46:18 syv: Uh, maybe? I know it depicted like a whole classroom of eight-year olds after they were murdered, but I don't think it showed the murdering?
05:46:45 Piecewise_: Plastic memories has child murder, not sure about rape
05:50:49 Devastator: supposed to have one house per farm.
05:50:53 syv: I want to strangle that girl.
05:50:56 Devastator: and like ten in the middle.
05:51:28 Devastator: ..pretty realistic, I'd say.
05:51:33 Devastator: ..That's not Phillip.
05:51:42 Devastator: and pinky is Marjorie.
05:52:09 MidJag_: Don't you typically have stuff in the cart when you go to the village?
05:52:15 syv: Fine, "Marjorie" is a sufficiently annoying word
05:52:17 Devastator: from the village? Yeah.
05:52:46 syv: Bet the blanket only covered her hips in the manga.
05:53:02 MidJag_: so GS is the offscreen philip?
05:53:16 MidJag_: Not bad song honestlly.
05:53:22 MidJag_: I have heard way worse
05:53:37 MidJag_: I like songs that graudally build into madness
05:53:50 MidJag_: Just always been a style I like.
05:54:07 Devastator: There are english phrases in most of the other anime songs we've heard so far.
05:54:09 syv: Then Jap at the end! The hell?!
05:54:13 MidJag_: GS's sister has a nice ass.
05:54:46 syv: It was ALL English, though! And it wasn't Engrish, that was practically native! It might've been native! I know Americans who have thicker accents!
05:55:13 MidJag_: The producers thought it was cool?
05:55:32 MidJag_: That overall needs a metal.
05:55:34 Devastator: Yes. Didn't get any nude shots, but lots of those in the manga.
05:55:50 MidJag_: Man I can not spell today.
05:55:56 syv: Her name is Marjorie, right? Or was that the boy?
05:56:09 Devastator: I think I called Pinky Marjorie.
05:56:34 MidJag_: She looks like the person from Overlord who commands goblins
05:57:10 syv: Yeah? The one with leader levels.
05:57:21 syv: Enri. Okay, busty sister is Enri.
05:57:31 Devastator: Only remember because they call her "General Enri" like 1000 times.
05:57:38 Devastator: name for robo-receptionist?
05:57:48 syv: Also, you read the books for some inscrutable reason.
05:57:57 Devastator: and I read very quickly.
05:58:07 syv: Do you, like, want better things?
05:58:14 MidJag_: I have things to recomend
05:58:17 Devastator: I'm waiting on book 3.
05:58:41 MidJag_: ...That's a weirdly modern looking fany pack
05:58:55 MidJag_: Holy shit she is literally a robot.
05:59:05 syv: I can actually name a couple litRPGs which have the same "horrible evil villain protagonist", and are better than THAT drivel.
05:59:44 Devastator: I don't have any regrets.
05:59:59 MidJag_: I kinda want to watch GS fight people now, it soudns like it would be fun. I know it doesn't happen but still.
06:00:19 Piecewise_: I mean, hobgoblins are like people
06:00:22 syv: Most of these jackwagons do deserve a good stabbing.
06:00:25 Piecewise_: human sized at least
06:00:35 syv: American human sized, maybe.
06:00:37 Devastator: Do they put them out like once a day?
06:01:10 MidJag_: He's got a such a strange helmet neck thing.
06:01:36 Devastator: 'suka' has been translated as like 20 different things.
06:01:40 Devastator: or whatever that i.s
06:02:22 MidJag_: Man if Goblins were such a threat you'd think that they'd put up a trainig tip thing.
06:02:37 MidJag_: I think it was PTSD flashback thing.
06:02:38 syv: And she's in clothes literally a second later.
06:02:39 Devastator: If he was more agressive at getting the quests, fewer people would die.
06:02:49 syv: PTSD nudity, yes. That sounds like this show.
06:03:20 MidJag_: All it needed was fortunate son playing and it could have been this things version of a nam flashback.
06:03:43 syv: Huh, Lucina's staff rings jingle. I like this!
06:03:54 MidJag_: That is actually a nice touch
06:04:01 Devastator: Because they totally should.
06:04:24 syv: Why was his sister waiting for him nude?
06:04:32 MidJag_: Though if he's so obssesed with like pracitcality you'd think he'd get rid of the bone things on the side
06:04:39 syv: Nude, then clothed, then nude again. This show.
06:04:48 Devastator: Maybe she only has one outfit.
06:05:34 Devastator: Here's the nam flashback.
06:05:35 MidJag_: See. it's a nam flashback, that film grain is the thing for it.
06:06:47 Devastator: "I WAS A YOUNG ONE, TOO!"
06:06:54 MidJag_: I do kinda like his speech though, it's stupid edgy but it's fun.
06:07:18 syv: And now his VA got bored with the speech and lost all emotion.
06:07:39 Piecewise_: In the sub he's pretty deadpan
06:07:41 syv: He's a pretty good archer though.
06:07:50 Devastator: Yeah, I'm thinking sis only actually has one outfit.
06:08:13 Devastator: Also, someone pallet-swapped their moon.
06:09:05 Devastator: Well.. that's a line I can agree with.
06:09:09 Devastator: "Imagination is a weapon."
06:09:32 syv: Oddly enough, Goblin Slayer has more in common with you than the goblins do,
Dev.
06:09:39 Devastator: "Like tears.. in the rain."
06:09:58 Devastator: Also totally a robot.
06:10:10 Devastator: like the overlord robot.
06:10:45 Devastator: I wonder if they knew about the submachine gun.
06:10:53 Devastator: also, even better CGI still looks bad, dammit.
06:11:11 MidJag_: Oh my god he sounds like Raiden.
06:11:11 MidJag_: huh, I guess GS's busty sister is just his friend.
06:11:12 MidJag_: Who was away from the villiage when it got attacked.
06:11:12 MidJag_: Right yeah, now I remember this.
06:11:15 MidJag_: ....huh, I think I just massively lagged
06:11:16 MidJag_: So I don't think GS's sister is actually his sister
06:11:27 MidJag_: I think that's just an old childhood friend.
06:11:27 Devastator: ANd yeah, you lagged there.
06:11:45 syv: Was that a toothbrush in the field of swords?
06:11:49 MidJag_: No I mean I think my chat lagged. I'm watching the torrent thing.
06:11:54 Devastator: there was a bow and a lance there.
06:12:04 syv: Ah, yeah, just an arrow shaft.
06:12:08 Devastator: all your messages arrived as spam.
06:12:17 Devastator: it's like he's falling.
06:12:29 MidJag_: He's actually just falling sideways.
06:12:50 MidJag_: That bard's singing is hilariousyl bad
06:13:03 Devastator: ..it's very like a lot of traditional themes.
06:13:06 MidJag_: It doens't line up with with his mouth at all.
06:13:25 Devastator: I think they couldn't get the dubbed lines to match.
06:13:39 Devastator: but it's terribad in japanese too.
06:13:51 Devastator: if very similar to a lot of real pieces.
06:14:28 syv:
MJ, you name the elf girl.
06:15:05 Devastator: cly that's an elf boy. ;-p
06:15:41 syv: Is Dubs still here, or did we bore him?
06:16:07 MidJag_: Just shake a can of anime, that'll attract him.
06:16:10 Piecewise_: I was around but now I go to bed
06:16:17 Devastator: That's about what happened in birbgame, last time someone tried to summon the gods.
06:16:27 Devastator: everything blew up.
06:16:44 Devastator: wtf was that opening?
06:16:47 syv: Gods just played D&D, this is the backstory.
06:17:46 syv: Yeah, just a Jap that's unusually good at Eng.
06:17:59 MidJag_: It's not bad to be sure.
06:18:11 syv: Yeah, I hold to what I said before.
06:18:39 Devastator: ..I think she's got a pretty good voice, actually.
06:19:02 MidJag_: Ursists voice isn't bad either.
06:19:05 Devastator: Jap is also the same.
06:19:18 MidJag_: yay, native american lizardman
06:19:19 Devastator: Lizardman's voice is almost identical.
06:19:29 Devastator: the jap and the english VAs are nearly identical.
06:19:51 Devastator: (dwarf, presumably.)
06:20:03 syv: Dwarf, as all dwarves, is Urist.
06:20:23 MidJag_: Ever dwarf is named ursit until proven otherwise, and even then
06:21:01 syv: If they claim otherwise, they're probablt under an assumed identity. Check if they're wearing a fake beard over their real one.
06:21:15 MidJag_: You'd think Cleric would buy some more pracitical clothing.
06:21:59 syv: Arnold, as an actual name"
06:22:38 MidJag_: oh this bit is cool later
06:22:47 Devastator: Eh, she's not important.
06:22:47 MidJag_: I like her name being jiggles.
06:22:52 Devastator: I'll just call her big hat or jiggles.
06:22:56 syv: Jiggles fits, and she'll be gone forever in three minutes.
06:23:37 MidJag_: I want to see an Ice mag who smokes and fire mage who always has a drink in their hand.
06:23:49 syv: Headpats! The way to subdue any anime girl.
06:24:41 MidJag_: Urist is probably quite good at killing goblins if Df is any indicator
06:25:01 Devastator: need some tree fighters.
06:25:42 MidJag_: I think I msised something
06:25:59 Devastator: They're going after goblins.
06:26:04 Devastator: so they ask goblin slayer.
06:26:12 MidJag_: Man my head is just not where it should be today.
06:27:25 Piecewise_ has quit [Ping timeout: 258 seconds]
06:27:41 Devastator: A bit slow on the uptake there.
06:28:26 MidJag_: can we call her jangles? Because her rings jangle?
06:29:09 Devastator: I kinda am liking his two-word conversation style a bit.
06:29:19 syv: She's a protagonist, she gets a proper name. -.-
06:29:29 Devastator: words are things that happen when I'm not slaying goblins.
06:29:36 Devastator: therefore I use as few as possible.
06:29:40 MidJag_: You know I can't rember proper names
06:29:51 MidJag_: thus it shall be a nickname
06:30:15 MidJag_: he's definetly a ursit
06:30:28 Devastator: Needs some more booze.
06:30:44 Devastator: does he have really cool socks?
06:30:52 syv: The elf doesn't want to eat meat she didn't kill herself, I assume?
06:30:58 MidJag_: We won't know until some dies.
06:31:03 Devastator: No meat that isn't from another intelligent creature.
06:31:32 Devastator: well, yes, he's got to travel.
06:31:36 Devastator: so can only bring a small barrel.
06:31:46 syv: Just drink right through the faceplate.
06:31:55 Devastator: I think he took the chin off.
06:32:15 Devastator: oh god, please explain cheese.
06:32:36 MidJag_: He's only a true dwarf if he engraves the chees
06:32:43 Devastator: with images of cheese.
06:33:08 MidJag_: Nope, least not as far as I rember
06:33:10 Devastator: I don't think she does.
06:33:18 syv: Also her VA is actually pretty good. What did we call her? Legolass?
06:33:29 er has joined #einsteinianroulette
06:33:40 Devastator: someone had a knife.
06:33:48 syv: We were just talking about you.
06:34:23 syv: We just got introduced to a char who you would like, but she's pretty minor and most of the episode is meaningless banter.
06:34:37 Devastator: got a pretty good VA, actually.
06:34:53 MidJag_: And she's actually around a lot for the next bits.
06:34:59 Devastator: You know, Urist has a pretty short beard.
06:35:03 syv: Maybe a 7, but I don't think I know you well enough for that high a rating.
06:35:07 er: Yeah the manga seemed to be nothing interesting as far forwards as I read.
06:35:20 syv: Did you read through the first chapter rape?
06:36:18 er: Yeah, that's excepting the first chapter, which was a mixture of interesting and annoying.
06:36:46 syv: Yeah, grope Sheik's metal tit.
06:37:26 MidJag_: It sucks to pass out sitting up. Just the worst stiffness.
06:37:52 Devastator: 'Stop showing off.'
06:38:02 Devastator: 'That only counts as one.'
06:38:19 syv: Heheheh. Yes, Legolass is the right name.
06:38:38 er: But yeah, not watching it because I didn't see indication that it would go anywhere fun.
06:39:02 Devastator: eh, very few things go anywhere fun.
06:39:18 syv: Hey, I saw "Magica Lab" in the credits! PM3 Season 2 confirmed?!
06:39:28 MidJag_: GS runs like the girls in the PM3's end credits/
06:39:34 er: And a version of the first chapter that's just tamer doesn't seem particularly worth the effort of watching.
06:39:43 syv: Yes, but there's so many things overall that "very few" ends up being "more than many people have free time"
06:40:02 MidJag_: Hey isn't there some new PM3 related thing out?
06:40:10 syv: But yeah, are we switching to something with
ER?
ER, are you sticking around?
06:40:18 syv: Magia record comes out later this month;
06:40:31 syv: It'll be terrible, but I'll watch it anyway.
06:40:49 MidJag_: I've read books like that
06:40:53 er: I'm going to try closing my eyes again and I'll either come back or be asleep.
06:42:18 Devastator: who uses pips on a d12?
06:42:37 MidJag_: Really really bored gods
06:42:55 MidJag_: That is a stubby knife
06:43:10 Devastator: No bloodying up the elf!
06:43:19 MidJag_: And that was a really weird expresssion
06:43:37 syv: Dead-eyes, followed by "Oh god no". Both good expressions!
06:44:21 MidJag_: Not saying it was a werid expression, just seemed out of place.
06:44:25 syv: I wonder if the guy who wrote this likes FATAL.
06:44:56 MidJag_: Not enough racism for it though.
06:45:01 Devastator: nobody likes fatal.
06:45:27 syv: Why is Urist of all people clean?
06:45:37 Devastator: Dwarves always smell bad.
06:45:47 Devastator: It's indistinguishable from his normal vomit-covered clothing.
06:46:26 Devastator: Is level 2 cave adaptation still permanent?
06:46:29 MidJag_: Wait was there a trap?
06:46:35 MidJag_: I think I missed something
06:46:51 Devastator: They're at a crossroads.
06:46:51 syv: Probably, no reason for it to change.
06:47:15 MidJag_: So is the lizard dude a casteR?
06:48:55 Devastator: GS stabbed a gobbo.
06:48:59 MidJag_: Nothing much, saw a tortured elf
06:49:05 Devastator: druid cast a summon.
06:49:23 MidJag_: I could have sworn Elf shot her or something in the manga.
06:50:46 MidJag_: Wait, she learned a new spell but didn't gain any spell slots?
06:51:00 Devastator: We're old school here.
06:51:20 Devastator: don't get a slot until you level.
06:51:25 Devastator: and gobbos don't give much XP.
06:51:37 Devastator: Plus GS steals most of that, being higher level.
06:51:51 Devastator: but she could possibly find another spell to learn, first.
06:51:57 MidJag_: but like don't clerics not gain new spells until they level?
06:52:10 Devastator: We're old school here, where those two things were decoupled.
06:52:20 Devastator: although I don't remember that ever applying to clerics.
06:52:45 syv: Clerics get all spells at all times, unless this edition has them work like other casters, in which case they could learn new spells whenever for whatever reason.
06:53:21 Devastator: Sleep is a crazily good spell.
06:53:40 Devastator: and lots of stabby.
06:53:56 syv: I like Bahar's weapon, whatever it is.
06:53:56 MidJag_: First time I used it in DnD I deleted an enounter with it.
06:54:10 Devastator: What's he using again?
06:54:11 MidJag_: THat elf needs to put her weight in that stab.
06:54:25 Devastator: The eternal downside of the elf.
06:54:42 syv: Legolass is a ranger, she doesn't know how to use her strength bonus on attacks.
06:54:52 Devastator: assuming she has one..
06:55:25 MidJag_: I still want that to happen :P
06:55:50 Devastator: "Incoming Fireball."
06:56:00 MidJag_: Not like we could move or anything
06:56:06 syv: Under his feet, obviously.
06:56:09 Devastator: ..that be big fireball.
06:56:24 syv: Lucina's actually pretty badass, wow.
06:56:57 MidJag_: Protection is a strong spell for first level.
06:57:09 syv: He uses a giant spell that they barely escape, and knocks out their healee. "We can handle him!"
06:57:18 Devastator: It's their turn now.
06:57:31 Devastator: I mean, he won initiative, so you gotta take that first round.
06:57:33 MidJag_: What the hell is the dwarves class
06:57:46 Devastator: like how the elf is an Elf.
06:57:54 syv: He's got like four obscure classes from splatbooks.
06:58:14 Devastator: I like how ogre is smart.
06:58:23 Devastator: at least relatively.
06:58:31 Devastator: eh, regen is common.
06:58:36 Devastator: ogres with brains are rare.
06:58:41 syv: Damn, Bahar's pulling Sekiro-level parries.
06:59:20 MidJag_: So can druids summon bone things in 3.5?
06:59:38 syv: Unless they're using some obscure splatbook.
06:59:40 Devastator: Just have to find the right things.
07:00:16 MidJag_: Did he just say crush the cunt?
07:00:25 syv: Something like that, yeah.
07:00:45 Devastator: GS gives no fucks, does he?
07:01:03 MidJag_: That was a cool scene in the manga.
07:01:46 Devastator: "Then you idiots aren't creative enough."
07:02:02 MidJag_: Which reminds that I need to have Slan kill someone like that.
07:02:28 MidJag_: I mean he'll learn gate evnetually
07:02:49 syv: If your GM actually lets you do that, he's an idiot.
07:03:07 Devastator: I'd let someone do that.
07:04:36 Devastator: I think I've had enough of that.
07:04:42 MidJag_: alright, I think I'm done.
07:04:54 MidJag_: I could watch more of it, but I'm tired.
07:05:20 MidJag_ has left #einsteinianroulette
07:05:31 Devastator: Probably just left it open.
07:05:57 syv: Well, you wanna do anything? Or sleep time for you too?
07:06:05 Devastator: eh, I could go a bit longer.
07:06:55 syv: I'm fine with watching more of this, I don't think it's good enough to justify waiting for a group.
07:07:10 syv: I'm *also* fine with straight up ignoring it forever., though.
07:07:12 Devastator: yeah, but we could watch BHD instead.
07:07:26 Devastator: but you might want a group for that.
07:08:03 Devastator: eh, ok, could do one more then.
07:08:11 syv: I kinda want
ER, 'cause I'd *love* a game based off of it. Also, Full Metal Dress inspiration;
07:09:31 Devastator: No orders for his tachell game.
07:09:38 Devastator: might just be forums being crap for a few days, though.
07:09:53 Devastator: There's more than one receptionist?
07:10:16 Devastator: I thought the point of having a robot meant you only needed one.
07:10:46 Devastator: it's been less bad than some other shows, but it's more interleaved, and it STILL stands out.
07:12:39 Devastator: "Christian my motive" is a usage I haven't seen this century.
07:13:06 syv: Jeez, that was a disappoint ROUS.
07:13:31 Devastator: "I only have one superpower."
07:15:33 Devastator: elf-chick likes competent murderhobo.
07:16:43 Devastator: Well, this is gratuitous.
07:16:48 Devastator: also not in the manga.
07:17:03 syv: Works better when animated, I imagine.
07:17:17 Devastator: I think jiggles only shows up a couple times.
07:18:02 syv: That sword on his mantle looked like a crayon.
07:18:56 Devastator: I think the witch 'survived.'
07:20:31 syv: ...She sounds like Mami. Slightly higher pitched.
07:20:51 Devastator: "What do I know about rats?"
07:21:52 Devastator: "It's the cheapest weapon."
07:22:10 Devastator: Okay, this is good.
07:22:18 syv: I do like his absolute single-mindedness.
07:22:24 Devastator: I like the real distress in her voice.
07:22:28 syv: Apparently we have similar tastes.
07:23:00 Devastator: "PLEASE, LISTEN FIVE SECONDS WHILE I TALK ABOUT SOMETHING THAT ISN'T GOBLINS."
07:23:34 Devastator: Hey, you can be known as clubber.
07:23:39 syv: Rub the blood all over your ass, yeah.
07:23:52 syv: Goddamn hismeyes are huge.
07:23:55 Devastator: ..bronze is above ruby?
07:24:00 syv: That's like stage 5 animes.
07:24:27 Devastator: Those are very anime.
07:25:58 Devastator: ..that didn't actually happen?
07:26:56 Devastator: and man, they can't do running.
07:27:24 Devastator: oh, she's a palading.
07:27:30 Devastator: I thought the heavy armour was obligatory.
07:27:58 syv: Some people have no idea how to make an effective build.
07:28:11 Devastator: maybe just couldn't afford it.
07:28:39 syv: ...Yeah, that was what they actually said earlier.
07:28:42 Devastator: Yeah, this is a bad episode.
07:28:53 syv: Which was the good episode?
07:29:25 Devastator: need more people desperately trying to talk to GS about things that aren't goblins.
07:29:35 syv: "Lawful Good to Chaotic Evil"
07:29:44 Elastic_Ridicule has joined #einsteinianroulette
07:29:48 Elastic_Ridicule is now known as ER
07:29:54 Devastator: I was wondering if they'd promote the thief for effective stealing.
07:30:14 syv: They're the adventurer's guild, not the thieve's guild.
07:30:17 Devastator: Wow, this is boring stuff.
07:30:56 Devastator: I think they ran out of material.
07:31:37 syv: Yeah, snipping out all the rape probably cut down on the runtime.
07:31:56 Devastator: I think the manga's just short.
07:32:09 Devastator: There's the intro and all of two story arcs.
07:32:17 Devastator: so.. enough for eight or so episodes.
07:33:08 ER: the first bit works as a short story, then it goes and meanders to nowhere
07:33:13 Devastator: I think this is the filler arc between the two arcs.
07:33:22 Devastator: Just not much to write about, really.
07:33:38 ER: the short story has a moral of "don't underestimate small monsters with hands"
07:33:39 Devastator: I think I'm done then,
syv.
07:33:41 Devastator: thanks for watching.
07:33:52 Devastator: There's other stuff than just that, but.. yeah.
07:33:56 ER: which exists in far better game form~
07:38:02 Devastator: you still interested in tachell,
syv?
07:39:00 syv: I've just been bad about watching the forum, lately.
07:40:39 Devastator: it's been not worky.
07:41:02 ER: I'm addicted enough to it to just wait through it~
07:42:49 Devastator: I hope we can wrap up the mook mission soon.
07:50:35 Devastator: shouldn't take much more.
07:51:00 ER: I'm hoping to get the lasthit in by pushing the button :p
08:03:56 ER: if you can't work it out, I won't tell you because you'll try to steal my kill. :P
08:06:16 Devastator: I can't use occult stuff.
08:06:22 Devastator: too many stats to be able to do everything.
08:11:17 Devastator: I don't think I'd trust spuds to push a button.
09:02:06 ER: I think I'm waiting for breakfast, which will still take a while.
09:10:54 ER: want to watch something,
syv?
09:11:08 syv: Sure. What do you wanna watch?
09:12:00 syv: Jorm is somehing that only we've watched, so I suppose that would make the most sense if you don't feel like making decisions right now.
09:15:11 syv: Lessee... I've got episodes 5-12 of Season 1.
09:16:05 ER: no idea where we left off, but I have all of both seasons
09:17:16 syv: I recognize E08 (Country A vs Country B), but not E09 (opens with nudity)
09:18:23 syv: Also, would like it if you could send me the torrent for S2. I have it on the other laptop, but I don't have the other laptop right now...
09:24:24 ER: should I go with english voices or switch to japanese voices, seeing as I have those now?
09:24:38 ER: ehh, english ones were fine and I'm used to them now
09:24:42 syv: IIRC the eng was pretty good.
09:25:20 ER: let's make fun of some terrible anime!
09:25:49 syv: I guess this is the obligatory beach episode.
09:25:58 ER: her skin is a strange color huh
09:26:44 syv: And of course her tits wobble for no reason.
09:27:07 ER: oh, this version has subtitles for the song
09:27:09 syv: I don't know whether or not I hate this song.
09:27:31 syv: I like the backing, definitely.
09:28:22 syv: So when do you figure she'll actually start launching nukes?
09:28:26 ER: why do these songs swap between languages so quickly?
09:28:44 syv: Because English is stylish, even though the singer doesn't actually speak it.
09:30:17 syv: I think Koko is the only character who isn't ripped.
09:31:59 syv: Crazy brit girl doesn't seem the sort to marry.
09:34:51 ER: well it's an episode so something has *better* happen
09:36:30 syv: He's pretty torn up for a doctor.
09:36:47 ER: and they just remarked on that
09:36:49 syv: ...And they comment on that.
09:37:24 ER: makes sense for mercenaries and medics to work together, they create work for each other!
09:37:43 ER: hm, CGI's not terrible here
09:37:48 syv: Gaaah it was all decent until that absurd bank
09:38:00 syv: Still better than GS, but nyeh.
09:38:29 syv: Jonah is basically her pet, isn't he?
09:43:24 ER: time to murder everyone and take thier money that way
09:47:30 syv: There were like twenty people there...
09:47:57 ER: yeah and all of coco's men are unreasonably badass anime characters
09:50:11 ER: nice of them to tell us all the things that will become relevant
09:53:44 syv: It's odd how little consistency they have in weapons.
09:54:21 ER: guess they have so much access that everyone uses whatever they prefer?
09:55:05 ER: they're letting the guy get away?
09:55:30 syv: Better to leave a survivor to tell others.
09:56:41 ER: give jonah credit, he can kill slowly
09:57:13 syv: Yeah. Just held the gun on him the whole way out, looking calm as hell the whole time.
09:59:45 ER: rank is a function of firepower
10:00:14 syv: Which means he lost his when he gave his underlingings AA missiles. :P
10:00:39 ER: that's a kind of rank that applies only to aircraft
10:03:07 syv: Dear god that's a horrifying weapon.
10:03:43 syv: Basically an indirect shotgun scaled up to absolutely insane sizes.
10:03:50 ER: so that's where the profit is
10:10:18 syv: Yes, I like this show much more than GS.
10:15:53 syv: Only two left in the season.
10:19:03 syv: "huge missile transaction"
10:19:11 syv: So that's when the nukes come in.
10:20:33 ER: finns are all badasses, I assume
10:21:49 ER: I never really wanted to know, what it really was... really, I didn't! *screaming*
10:25:56 ER: definately an Egan character
10:26:03 syv: Hopefully her panties aren't a plot point.
10:26:44 syv: Oh, she's hunting Koko, she won't survive the episode. So not much backstory! Woot!
10:31:47 syv: So the people Valmet's gonna kill. Can't wait!
10:32:36 ER: oh, and she's the one who valmet fought before
10:33:29 syv: Yeah, the one in the opening cutscene.
10:33:35 syv: Gaaahhh too much infodumping.
10:34:24 syv: Does Scarecrow have any high points?
10:35:59 ER: what are they selling? rifles?
10:42:18 ER: this show actually has a pretty good time / things happening ratio IMO
10:44:38 ER: learn his pathos literally after we saw him get killt, seems legit
10:45:03 ER: okay, maybe it's a deus ex machina for his life
10:45:24 syv: I think someone's gonna swat plierman off of him.
10:45:37 syv: Idiot should've jusr used a shotgun, like the little girl;
10:51:18 syv: Guns just mean your enemy knows where you are.
10:52:36 syv: He missed because that scope is a POS.
10:52:50 ER: he missed because he got shot~
10:52:52 syv: Hilariously bad by modern standards.
10:55:31 syv: Okay, wasn't expecting tits.
10:57:45 ER: isn't violence wholesome and fun?
10:59:09 syv: Oh, yeah, great plan. Put an attempted murderer and her victim in the same room.
10:59:57 ER: wait so neither of them actually died?
11:00:17 ER: the wonders of modern medicene
11:00:27 syv: Pistols actuallt kinda suck at killing people if you don't hit anything important, and the victims get prompt treament.
11:01:04 ER: are all assassains in the universe weirdoes?
11:01:56 ER: anime: still stranger than reality
11:02:32 syv: I think all of them except the girl will be murdered, and she'll become the next
ER character.
11:02:54 ER: I think he's the one who hired the assassains
11:04:08 ER: looks like something after the credits
11:04:09 syv: I hope things get more serious in the next season.
11:04:59 ER: so is velmet minmaxxed or just overleveled?
11:06:00 syv: Probably overleveled, does she have -2 in anything?
11:06:16 syv: She doesn't look like cha is her dump stat, and she's no idiot.
11:06:27 syv: Maybe. Still only one stat.
11:06:58 ER: her actual people skills seem to leave something to be desired.
11:07:28 syv: Yes, but she's not a -1, just a +0.
11:08:16 syv: Jonah's the munchkin char; took big penalties to stature, age, experience, knowledge, he's illiterate, has very low cha, probably a couple extra trauma flaws over the others...
11:08:52 ER: Velmets the only one who seems actually affected by trauma.
11:09:15 syv: Valmet's just awesome 'cause she's been in the campaign since the start, Jonah's comparable only because his build is broken.
11:16:17 ER: Yeah, I kinda forgot how much I liked Jor
11:17:47 syv: Makes me want to work on the CQB game. As always. That kinda plotline would work soooo well for it.
11:18:00 syv: Really need to finish the mems before the trip, though.
11:19:25 ER: well tell me when you have a working system so that I can join your war profiteering RTD~
11:28:32 ER: hopefully the second season of jor is as good
11:29:02 syv: Well, nothing about it really spoke to me as being special or super well planned, which means it would be hard to do worse.
11:42:24 syv: Heading home now. Been fun.
11:42:28 syv has quit [Quit: Definitely a psyv.]

15:59:54 er: Figured you would update mook next.
16:00:07 Devastator: Of course I roll a 1 on that spell, dammit.
16:00:12 Devastator: I can't afford another try.
16:04:01 Devastator: yeah. Hit the 1/60 odds of a 1 and a 6, too.
16:04:49 er: Heh, you could have failed less dramatically than that to the same result.
16:06:16 Devastator: glad I brought the carabiniers.
16:06:36 Devastator: and very glad Saeko's been taking the spell failures.
16:06:47 Devastator: if I'd temporarily shrunk catbird it might have went badly.
16:14:33 er: Anything that you rolled would have been 1/60 odds because there were 60 possible rolls. ;P
16:16:02 er: There were only two or three possible outcomes though, and the one you got was more likely than 1/60 because there were multiple distinct rolls that could have led to the same outcome.
16:17:09 Devastator: a big 5/60, that outcome.
16:29:08 Devastator: What would have happened if it succeeded,
Piecewise_?
16:30:05 Piecewise_: Birb get big, go attack balloon
16:31:08 Devastator: decent chance of a one-shot?
16:38:32 Piecewise_: Could be, depends on the roll obviously, but decent shot of a lot of damage at least
16:39:29 Devastator: well, can't afford another try, so I'll go with their plan.
18:06:24 Devastator: Damn,
RC really tries to screw others out of every last buck, doesn't he?
18:06:49 Devastator: "I don't like that you're retiring your character, and will instead seize her pay for the
RC Fund."
18:24:58 Devastator: ...Also,
RC seems to have missed that you dismissed the mercs due to lack of magic resistance at the base of the tower.

19:37:13 Radio_Controlled: Good evening you crazed football fans.
19:41:50 Radio_Controlled: Dang, I always seem to come on at the wrong times these days.
19:42:32 Devastator: sorry for being so meant.
19:43:58 Devastator: ..although these orders are kinda facepalming. "try to find a smooth river rock, a block of Ice, a half liter of mercury, or silver wire"
19:45:11 Radio_Controlled: No real biggie, things got cleared out easy enough.
19:46:02 Devastator:
ER doesn't care, but it really does seem like seizing anything due people leaving the firm.
19:46:20 Radio_Controlled: Heh, yeah, I guess she's still rather new to the whole forum game thing.
19:46:43 Devastator: Might get the hang of it.
19:47:05 Devastator: "Any of those available locally?"
19:47:11 Radio_Controlled: I really don't mind if he wants the pay to go to Wiellste. But if he really doesn't care, why not keep those fathoms in the game where they can produce some sort of value for the players, right?
19:48:08 Radio_Controlled: The idea of keeping in an old character active in the group though is where I'm apprehensive, it's not something that's usually allowed, I think?
19:48:09 Devastator: Because they're his fathoms. Why should he let his old boss keep his pay instead of taking it?
19:48:52 Devastator: I mean, I could see that argument for some kinda special item or something fancy or unique.
19:48:55 Devastator: But it's just money.
19:48:59 Devastator: You can always get more money.
19:49:15 Radio_Controlled: Well, he said he "don't really give one single fuck."
19:49:44 Radio_Controlled: True, it's not a big issue, but I'd like to make sure the bookkeeping checks out.
19:49:52 Devastator: "Oh, well, if you the player don't care, I'm going to turn your retiring character into sausage meat, because that'll be worth at least a couple more fathoms."
19:50:01 Radio_Controlled: Underground accounting, in the proud tradition of space accounting.
19:50:48 Devastator: Eh, no worries about the bookkeeping. Just mark off the money he gets paid, and let him give his new character some money from it.
19:51:00 Devastator: ..Also, can't really say the money is being taken out of the game, when he's giving it to his new character.
19:51:34 Radio_Controlled: That's another option, giving some of his pay to his new character.
19:52:04 Radio_Controlled: Letting new characters have items or money from old characters is something that's generally not allowed though?
19:52:22 Devastator: Yeah, but in this case he loses all the level ups and equipment.
19:52:29 Devastator: So.. not really a big deal.
19:52:45 Radio_Controlled: Again, if
pw is ok with it, it's all good for me, but it does sound potentially abusable.
19:53:10 Devastator: Well.. so is taking money in the name of the team fund.
19:53:26 Devastator: Particularly when it's all spent on bore stuff, which your character is the decision-maker for.
19:54:18 Radio_Controlled: Not really, I'm just trying to move things along. In fact I explicitly asked egan if he still wanted to decide what weapons we'd be getting, and asked if any other player wants in on it.
19:55:22 Devastator: Not that big a deal.
19:55:25 Radio_Controlled: If the people decide they wanna spend all of the team fund on blackjack and hookers, then blackjack and hookers it is.
19:55:47 Devastator: Well.. that's what leaving money with a retiring character is, basically.
19:56:00 Devastator: and you're saying that it should be spent on other stuff.
19:56:10 Piecewise_: I feel like nature girl may be in the mindset of minimalistic games
19:56:14 Radio_Controlled: And if egan wants that, that is what we'll do.
19:57:02 Radio_Controlled: Yeah, I guess so. To be fair, if she doesn't know the game world it might be hard for her to know where to start searching.
19:57:27 Devastator: Takes time to settle into things.
19:57:48 Radio_Controlled: That is a good point, I should check with
pw to see what he thinks about it.
19:57:51 Devastator: Anyway, just let
ER spend his money, ok? No need to seize it to the team fund in the name of bookkeeping.
19:58:12 Radio_Controlled: And if he explicitly does not want to spend it?
19:58:50 Devastator: Then it goes to him and nobody else.
19:58:55 Devastator: There's always more money.
19:59:08 Radio_Controlled: @
Piecewise_ what do you think about egan's plan to hire out his old character to the team?
20:00:45 Piecewise_: He said he wanted to have the old character along for RP purposes. And that character barely did anything anyways so It doesn't seem OP. I'll of course object if he starts abusing it but as long as it basically just exists as a background character for RP purposes, I'm ok with it
20:01:26 Devastator: There's other reasons to park characters, anyway.
20:01:30 Radio_Controlled: All else being equal, I prefer things staying in the game if they can generate value, and thus fun, for the players, personally.
20:01:30 Devastator: so you can come back, say.
20:01:48 Radio_Controlled: Duly noted
pw, I'll go post that in the thread so we can wrap that up.
20:02:02 Devastator: "I neeed those 80 fathoms to have fun! Me and nobody else!"
20:02:10 Piecewise_: If he tries to go back to the first character, then I'll say no
20:02:35 Radio_Controlled: Again, those fathoms are in no way mine? Like, are you sure you understand how this team fund works?
20:02:44 Devastator: You have a team fund.
20:03:00 Devastator: You spend it on things related to the vehicle and give it to new players.
20:03:18 Radio_Controlled: That better be the royal you :p
20:03:24 Devastator: It's basically your private stash of money, though.
20:04:11 Devastator: It's like Shadowrun, where you have to keep up on the decker's state of the art costs.
20:04:50 Radio_Controlled: I heard of shadowrun but never played it.
20:05:09 Radio_Controlled: You mean you have to spend money to improve what the shop can sell the players or something?
20:05:20 Devastator: Decker stuff gets worse over time.
20:05:28 Devastator: as "State of the Art' advances.
20:05:36 Devastator: so the decker needs to pay bucks just to keep up.
20:06:19 Radio_Controlled: Is the decker a player class or something?
20:06:20 Devastator: You could also have a character with an excessive Lifestyle, and needs lots of extra bucks just to keep it up.
20:06:36 Devastator: In either case, you have an expensive character that does provide benefits to the party, but it's mostly secondary.
20:08:43 Radio_Controlled: Yeah, that'd require some team effort to get most of the benefit.
20:09:14 Devastator: Well.. generally no. They could contract it out, or do things differently. If that character wasn't there, or had a different build, everyone else would be just fine.
20:09:41 Devastator: It's basically asking the other players for a tax so you can play a specific character, which can make the game more fun, or not.
20:10:46 Radio_Controlled: Ah, I thought they'd generally really need him around.
20:10:57 Devastator: If the character is there, the GM will make that character useful.
20:12:50 Radio_Controlled: A good GM, anyway.
20:58:39 Radio_Controlled: I wonder how badly the hammerhead will hammer us poor mooks.
20:58:52 Devastator: depends on how rough it is.
20:59:37 Devastator: I hope Spuds can continue blocking.
21:02:18 Devastator: and that it can blow up.
21:02:30 Devastator: also sad at the lack of kaiju gryphon.
21:03:11 Radio_Controlled: Yeah, too bad about that 1.
21:03:36 Radio_Controlled: Always annoying, but at least no bad backlash happened.
21:03:53 Radio_Controlled: And seeing an automated warship should be really cool at least.
21:04:19 Devastator: I don't want to see an automated warship, I want to save 150 people.
21:04:24 Devastator: or however many there are.
21:05:12 Devastator: This is another annoying delay.
21:05:47 Radio_Controlled: Well, that warship was bound to threaten some people at some point, so still doing the good work.
21:05:50 Devastator: I also suspect the only reason there wasn't a bad backfire was because of the belt straps.
21:06:08 Devastator: Although
PW said the breaker grabbed me.
21:06:58 Radio_Controlled: I'd rather have an interesting delay like that than "sorry, bad roll, try again" being a whole turn.
21:07:11 Radio_Controlled: But well, sometimes the dice don't smile on you eh.
21:08:15 Devastator: But it's not going to be one turn.
21:08:33 Devastator: no big attack means small attacks, which will mean this all goes slowly.
21:08:53 Devastator: Although, I did think of something I can do.
21:09:01 Radio_Controlled: I'm sure the magebreakers have some good firepower on them.
21:09:43 Devastator: since I'm riding an intelligent creature and not piloting a machine, I can hug the normal guard. It's been a month and a half since I've hugged either of them, and I only hugged one during the attack.
21:09:55 Devastator: Might have done both.
21:10:29 Radio_Controlled: You mean hug the magebreaker? Or did you take your bodyguards?
21:10:36 Devastator: I've got one of them with me.
21:10:43 Devastator: Left one in the town.
21:11:01 Devastator: wanted an extra seat for a magebreaker, but I also wanted someone to babysit it while I wasn't present.
21:11:07 Radio_Controlled: Could just ask some mana from the magebreaker.
21:11:58 Devastator: I will, but I have no idea if the magebreaker will be willing to do that, or even if the breaker is a mage.
21:12:09 Devastator: but maybe not willing.
21:12:17 Devastator: and even if willing, might not be the best idea tactically.
21:12:29 Devastator: Saeko can't shoot back, for instance.
21:12:52 Radio_Controlled: I'm rather surprised that the copper is ok with riding with you and letting you take the lead on this.
21:13:42 Devastator: Well, this way they have a magebreaker like right there should I try anything, or this is some kinda trap on my part.
21:14:19 Devastator: Plus Saeko doesn't carry weapons and only has magical armour.
21:14:21 Radio_Controlled: Still, could have asked you to ride in the airship with them and lock the birb up somewhere.
21:14:36 Devastator: I'm not agreeing to that, actually.
21:15:13 Radio_Controlled: Perhaps, just surprised they didn't really insist on it.
21:15:26 Devastator:
Piecewise_, thoughts?
21:15:28 Radio_Controlled: Guess they are pretty cool with vigilantism.
21:15:40 Devastator: I think coming to them is the opposite of vigilantism.
21:15:44 Devastator: You guys are vigilantes.
21:16:15 Radio_Controlled: I mean, if you went to the cops here with a story like that I don't think they'd be very happy to have you along for the operation.
21:16:39 Radio_Controlled: True, we are do-gooders out of the goodness of our hearts! :p
21:16:51 Devastator: I don't intend on giving them a choice about that.
21:17:01 Devastator: Saeko wouldn't sit back and let them push her out.
21:17:53 Devastator: If they wanted to prevent her from coming along, they really should have grabbed her in the HQ.
21:17:59 Radio_Controlled: Again, sure, and much more fun like this. Just surprised they didn't even really try to keep the civvie out of it.
21:18:36 Devastator: I got some good arguments. I discovered them in the first place, and I have the catbird as proof that I can handle the situation.
21:19:27 Radio_Controlled: I guess in a world where random people can be wizards and where the law isn't universally applied, they don't mind the state not having exclusive right to dispense violence.
21:19:51 Radio_Controlled: True, they'd be worse off not taking her.
21:20:08 Devastator: Also, that's a sign of a very weak state.
21:20:47 Radio_Controlled: But try convincing the cops in real life that you have all the necessary skills to assist them with their SWAT operation. Even if you were ex-navy seal 6 times over, they'd still be all "haha nope".
21:20:54 Radio_Controlled: Yeah, I think
pw even said as much.
21:21:08 Radio_Controlled: The further you go from the capitol, the weaker the law.
21:21:36 Devastator: god no, you didn't train with their team, you aren't equipped for that.
21:21:39 Radio_Controlled: At least they still care enough to immediately come help out.
21:21:48 Devastator: Yeah. I was expecting it to be a day or so.
21:22:03 Devastator: which I'd spend bar-hopping or such trying to scrape up a bit of mana.
21:22:13 Devastator: all going right back out for group buffs.
21:22:24 Radio_Controlled: Strange though they didn't at least know about it, what with all those people who were missing and bugs being sighted.
21:22:38 Devastator: Maybe people normally don't escape them.
21:22:40 Radio_Controlled: Guess they are just critically undermanned.
21:23:25 Radio_Controlled: Even without the bugs, surely the people disappearing and the strange stuff with the lake must have been known by the locals.
21:26:43 Radio_Controlled: Here's hoping the forum won't eat my post...
21:26:49 Radio_Controlled: Ah, it went through!
21:31:03 Devastator: Yeah, been up and down.
22:42:51 Devastator: Should get fixed eventually, one way or another.
22:44:44 Devastator: "Attempts to, through sheer force of will, create a new creature from hell particulate fail."
22:45:42 Devastator: That sounds like a bad 1.
23:18:53 Radio_Controlled: Oh hey another monster in the room beyond.
23:21:28 Radio_Controlled: Good nade it seems.
23:21:36 Radio_Controlled: Might want to just nade the next room as well.
23:21:47 Devastator: I think I only had one.
23:22:11 Radio_Controlled: I think the door is holding back the monster?
23:22:28 Radio_Controlled: Maybe we can just go shopping for some 'splosives or whatever and come flush it out.
23:22:44 Devastator: If the next door is locked I'm fine with leaving it locked.
23:22:56 Radio_Controlled: I think it was jammed?
23:23:14 Radio_Controlled: "The far wall has another blast door, though this one is apparently stuck because it keeps closing part of the way, grinding in a spray of sparks, and then opening again. "
23:23:34 Radio_Controlled: So as long as the beast doesn't charge us, we have some prep opportunity.
23:23:43 Radio_Controlled: Though maybe the shooting just now attracted it.
23:23:57 Devastator: We did kill two of them.
23:24:14 Devastator: I think that was all.
23:24:22 Radio_Controlled: "Clem can't speak it, but if it could it would tell everyone that something big is in the room beyond. One last thing. "
23:24:40 Radio_Controlled: Last part of the turn, Egan's action.
23:25:02 Radio_Controlled: You got any more nades?
23:26:11 Devastator: five stimpacks, though.
23:26:17 Devastator: Next one might not be a diamondhead.
23:26:25 Radio_Controlled: Probably not.
23:26:37 Radio_Controlled: And no scanner to see where or what it is.
23:26:57 Radio_Controlled: Should probably go goo the other creature again, though that risks missing and expending the tank for nothing.
23:27:18 Radio_Controlled: If we can bring it in alive that'd probably earn us some bonus pay though.
23:27:35 Devastator: I think it's stuck.
23:27:47 Devastator: partly metagaming that
PW's ready for the next job, but I think it's done.
23:27:58 Radio_Controlled: Yeah, but I fear for hidden escape rolls :o
23:28:18 Radio_Controlled: I'll just check it out at least, can't hurt to be sure.
23:28:19 Devastator: I know about hidden escape rolls.
23:29:15 Radio_Controlled: For npc's though?
23:29:34 Devastator: Especially for npcs.
23:29:45 Devastator: ..dunno. I think I'd be okay with fixing the door.
23:30:00 Devastator: if we can't do that, more guns are better.
23:30:27 Devastator: That goop gun has been useful.
23:31:20 Radio_Controlled: Sticky goop 4 life.
23:31:39 Radio_Controlled: I could maybe close the door with my sealing tool.
23:31:53 Radio_Controlled: I wonder if I could dual wield goop guns.
23:32:29 Radio_Controlled: Get some 2d4 action going.
23:32:37 Devastator: Is it that kind of sealing tool?
23:33:07 Devastator: the capture is probably worth money, yeah.
23:33:09 Radio_Controlled: Maybe I should introduce naturegirl to the goop squad.
23:33:11 Radio_Controlled: "OMNITECH Sealing Tool (D4 use die) A modified welding torch with a built in gas tank. Has an attached nozzle that focuses the flame to either side and directs the metal down into a center trough of sorts. Designed specifically for sealing metal bulkhead doors"
23:33:26 Devastator: gotta have the door shut first.
23:33:33 Devastator: Yeah, I'm fine if you just want to seal the last thing in.
23:33:33 Radio_Controlled: It's an option at least.
23:33:37 Devastator: but if that fails, we gotta kill it.
23:34:00 Radio_Controlled: Not sure if I could close it while it keeps moving.
23:34:13 Devastator: but I think you have the best mechanical.
23:34:25 Devastator: or we could shoot out the power or something to see if it stops moving, and then haul it shut.
23:34:26 Radio_Controlled: A whole d6! Wowzers.
23:34:39 Radio_Controlled: Yeah, that'd help.
23:35:13 Devastator: I think the other mechanical guy finished the mission already.
23:35:46 Radio_Controlled: Ah, is he part of the titty bar patrons?
23:35:57 Devastator: ..Yeah, everyone still fighting is d4 mechanical.
23:36:06 Radio_Controlled: Aka Squad U(seful).
23:36:25 Devastator: Hey, we'll get extra bucks.
23:36:31 Radio_Controlled: I'm willing to try it, though I do fear that getting close to the door is a one way ticket to getting grabbed.
23:36:44 Devastator: well, then Spuds will have to take the lead.
23:36:51 Devastator: (only good melee char.)
23:36:51 Radio_Controlled: While the door is open, by whatever is in there.
23:37:08 Radio_Controlled: Though I guess we can't see the monster yet so it cant be close to the door.
23:37:32 Devastator: unless it's invisible.
23:37:34 Devastator: maybe it is the door.
23:37:38 Radio_Controlled: I'll mention my sealing tool IC, see what the others think.
23:37:45 Radio_Controlled: Door monster.
23:38:03 Radio_Controlled: Ever heard of Eye: divine cybermancy?
23:39:09 Radio_Controlled: Ah, so you know about glorious door hacking?
23:39:42 Radio_Controlled: That'd be a great final boss.
23:39:45 Devastator: Hmm.. wondering if I should put intelligent in quotes about Cabal.
23:40:17 Devastator: I'm also slightly worried that there may be more chestbursters in these few corpses, but now that I think about it something's probably been eating them.
23:40:26 Devastator: from there being not as many as expected and them being moved.
23:41:07 Radio_Controlled: In general, from
pw's descriptions I think door monster really is the last obstacle.
23:41:41 Radio_Controlled: Yeah, familiars can be fairly intelligent, right?
23:41:56 Radio_Controlled: Not sure if conscious though.
23:42:14 Devastator: They're not stupid, but not super-bright.
23:42:21 Devastator: and I can't see a d4 kno one being particularly smart.
23:42:27 Devastator: that said, I'm asking it to.. fly.
23:42:31 Radio_Controlled: I think some of them can talk.
23:42:32 Devastator: so it should be ok at that.
23:42:39 Devastator: I don't know if mine can.
23:42:42 Radio_Controlled: Ah, yeah, d4 know ain't the best :p
23:42:48 Devastator:
Piecewise_, can birb speak?
23:43:32 Radio_Controlled: Do stimulants do anything to help with general rolls?
23:44:05 Devastator: It bumps up your life die by one.
23:44:12 Devastator: and makes you jerk about for a bit when it goes in.
23:44:19 Devastator: so do it before doing the fine welding.
23:44:33 Radio_Controlled: Hmm, so good if I were to be attacked, but won't really help with welding.
23:44:58 Radio_Controlled: Glad I could grab a bit of armor though.
23:45:15 Piecewise_: also birb....not sure...can normal ones you buy on start talk?
23:45:34 Devastator: It says they can warn you if the magebreakers are coming.
23:45:36 Devastator: Not sure what that means.
23:46:28 Radio_Controlled: Hey
pw, do I need to take off my suit to wear the riot gear?
23:46:34 Devastator: "It is intelligent enough to follow orders and speak a bit. Not a great conversationalist but good enough to yell if the Mage Breakers are coming."
23:46:48 Devastator: I don't know if that applies to ones without lips, though.
23:47:03 Radio_Controlled: "What is it Timmy?"
23:47:13 Radio_Controlled: "Squawk squawk!"
23:47:25 Devastator: Red-tailed hawks make the sound they assign to eagles in movies.
23:47:26 Radio_Controlled: "Oh no, Lassie fell down a well!"
23:47:45 Devastator: eagle sounds are very distinctive but not the ones you expect to hear from them.
23:51:12 Radio_Controlled: Not sure how to onomatopoeia it.
23:52:56 Radio_Controlled: Ah, but time for bed now.
23:53:13 Radio_Controlled: Was fun talking again.
23:53:27 Radio_Controlled: See you around!
