00:09:17 Devastator: ok.
00:09:28 Devastator: was also thinking about the middle of the artificer ruins.
00:15:41 Devastator: ..Also, Piecewise, I didn't say to buff the magebreaker's weapon.
00:15:56 Devastator: I mean the one who works for me, and my own armour.
00:20:34 Devastator: I should be more clear with my spell wordings.
00:38:38 Devastator: "Buff myself and my guard"
00:38:40 Devastator: dammit.
00:57:36 Devastator: (oh well.)
02:19:40 Devastator: I suppose it doesn't matter much, except that it would be less scary and might damage some of our armour.
02:22:21 Devastator: did it? That would suck but hopefully be fixable.

03:30:07 syv has joined #einsteinianroulette
03:33:21 Devastator: Hey syv.
03:33:55 Devastator: good to see you.
03:34:09 syv: Hey dev.
03:34:14 syv has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
03:34:34 syv has joined #einsteinianroulette
03:34:51 Devastator: boing.
03:35:27 syv: So if I accidentally hit the fullscreen button that this phone adds, the app D/Cs me from all servers.
03:35:47 Devastator: Yay!
03:36:24 syv: Also, I can no longer really use my five-row keyboard in landscape mode. Takes up too more of the screen, despite this phone having a *larger* screen. -.-
03:36:50 syv: If only I could've fixed my previous phone's mic by applying more tape.
03:37:12 Devastator: Heh.
03:37:21 Devastator: Screen bigger = fill it with more crap.
03:37:23 Devastator: always the way.
05:21:27 Piecewise has quit [Read error: Operation timed out]
05:21:47 syv: Bye.
05:21:58 Devastator: sleep time for the skelebone.
05:35:03 MidJag has joined #einsteinianroulette
05:35:07 MidJag: lo
05:35:17 syv: Oh hey, you.
05:35:20 Devastator: Hey.
05:35:22 Devastator: it's the MJ.
05:35:32 MidJag: it is indeed me
05:35:46 Devastator: How have you been lately?
05:36:00 syv: I was just about to fall unconscious, after I finish chatting up Dev. You here to take over for me?
05:36:06 MidJag: Sure
05:37:38 Devastator: apparently.
05:37:40 MidJag: And I've been good dev, syv and my twin came up and down for the weekend repsectivelly, learned a bit about shooting pistols from syv.
05:37:44 Devastator: have fun on your trip.
05:37:48 Devastator: ahh.
05:38:01 Devastator: Did syv experience any of the harem elements you've been talking about?
05:38:13 MidJag: Nah my rooommate is home for the summer.
05:38:28 Devastator: ok.
05:38:32 syv: Just left his shoes and TV behind.
05:38:38 MidJag: So no harem was around sadly.
05:38:47 syv: Notably, not the girls, so presumably this is the beach episode.
05:38:53 Devastator: Yes.
05:39:27 MidJag: his house is actually right next does to a beach back home.
05:39:44 Devastator: Well, so long as you know harem anime safety, you'll be fine.
05:39:58 Devastator: run away if you see any transformation sequences.
05:40:08 Devastator: You guys have fun?
05:40:32 syv: Stand in the background and try to look undetailed. Wear blank clothes, all of the same color.
05:40:56 Devastator: also safe.
05:41:00 Devastator: duck and cover is good.
05:41:17 syv: I think I'll go work on that unconsciousness thing, now. Bye~
05:41:21 Devastator: ok.
05:41:23 Devastator: see ya, syv.
05:41:28 syv has quit [Quit: ???]
05:41:34 Devastator: sent you a turn, too, MJ.
05:41:39 MidJag: Cool
05:41:44 MidJag: and yeah it was fun.
05:42:51 Devastator: That's good.
05:51:33 MidJag: How've you been dev?
05:51:38 Devastator: Getting by.
05:51:49 Devastator: doing ok at my job, but being worried on alternate days about being useless.
05:51:52 Devastator: Just usual.
05:52:23 MidJag: heh, did I tell you my labs in chaos?
05:53:01 Devastator: Nope!
05:55:33 MidJag: So my proffesor, the one who's lab it is, has been called away for a family emergency, and will have no communication with us until monday, and even then there is a good chance that she will be in California for the rest of the summer. It doens't effect me too much, since I'm kinda off doing my own thing anyway, but like essentially it's thrown all the Grad students stuff into a mess and everyone who's under them
05:55:33 MidJag: into a bigger mess.
05:57:36 Devastator: whee.
05:57:43 MidJag: yes.
05:57:46 Devastator: welcome to zero leadership theatre.
05:59:06 MidJag: yeah it'll be intresting to be sure
05:59:41 Devastator: Maybe someone will step up.
06:01:20 MidJag: Yeah, the GTA's will almost definetly not, and our lab manager is brand new to the job. Disturbingly, I'm one of the most experinced peopel in the lab after those three. Sooooo
06:02:02 Devastator: yey?
06:03:22 MidJag: Yeah, I might honestlly end up stepping up. but then I have to organize shit and it'll just be agony~
06:03:49 Devastator: pain, pain.
06:07:17 Devastator: Also getting some ones in Cabal.
06:07:48 MidJag: oh?
06:08:50 Devastator: Yeah, blew two spells.
06:08:55 MidJag: ouch
06:08:57 Devastator: and apparently hurt something inside an item.
06:09:07 MidJag: Always dfun
06:09:24 Devastator: Maybe not.
06:09:31 Devastator: but if I did, I did something nobody else did yet.
06:10:37 MidJag: Always fun.
06:11:17 Devastator: Yes.
06:13:30 Devastator: Nah, ER hurt a creature that was an item several times.
06:13:39 MidJag: oh?
06:14:48 Devastator: made a painting and some dick made it into an animated painting.
06:15:01 Devastator: ER drained it of mana until it was almost dead, and then shoved it into a box.
06:15:05 MidJag: Ah
06:16:27 MidJag: shoveing it into boxes does tend to fix things
06:17:49 Devastator: then I bought it off him for 10 gold.
06:18:06 MidJag: heh
06:23:10 Devastator: Yeah.
06:23:16 Devastator: I'll play with it if this long mission succeeds.
06:23:21 MidJag: alright
06:28:38 Devastator: would also like a good mana payout.
06:28:44 Devastator: so far my payout has been Benedict.
06:29:21 MidJag: Benedict?
06:30:54 Devastator: Named my large catbird.
06:32:28 MidJag: heh, my insane wizard in DnD's owl familiar is also named benedict
06:32:51 Devastator: heh.
06:32:53 Devastator: doing ok?
06:33:02 MidJag: He's doing quite well.
06:34:08 MidJag: We got through a giant ass fight recently so now we are selling loot and such.
06:35:24 Devastator: against what?
06:35:49 MidJag: a bunch of orcs goblins and goliaths.
06:36:41 MidJag: Several of them had class levels.
06:37:27 MidJag: We had a big plan but it eneded up turning into shoot them once and the charge in.
06:37:43 Devastator: welp.
06:37:50 Devastator: ...
06:38:03 Devastator: doomrl just generated an Anti-Freak Jackal.
06:38:06 Devastator: the pistol from Hellsing.
06:38:11 Devastator: the explosive pistol.
06:38:19 Devastator: and last round I completed a pistol run.
06:38:21 Devastator: goddamn it.
06:38:37 MidJag: Ah.
06:38:40 MidJag: That sucks
06:38:56 Devastator: It also didn't record the completion right, and took back my rank.
06:39:08 MidJag: Ouch
06:40:11 Devastator: Yeah. It also gave me a combat shotgun on the first level.
06:40:23 MidJag: Is that not good?
06:40:25 Devastator: If I had the difficulty up, I'd be able to score a whole bunch of challenges.
06:40:27 Devastator: it's amazing.
06:41:13 MidJag: Nice
06:42:10 MidJag: Well I should go to bed.
06:42:27 MidJag: Night.
06:42:46 MidJag has left #einsteinianroulette
12:35:13 Piecewise has joined #einsteinianroulette
17:24:25 ER has joined #einsteinianroulette
17:25:24 ER: hallowe
18:54:35 ER has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
19:43:06 ER has joined #einsteinianroulette
20:12:46 Piecewise: Halloweeeeeine
20:12:59 ER: hallp
20:18:54 Piecewise: whats wrong
20:19:08 Piecewise: other than that you got your head smashed
20:19:19 ER: oh yeah fuck you btw~
20:28:38 Piecewise: *shrug* blame the dice. You were basically one good roll from winning too
20:29:08 ER: there was a set of rolls where I won turn 1
20:29:19 ER: and it wasn't an unlikely roll!
20:29:27 ER: instead I rolled two ones!
20:29:38 ER: on a d10 and a d8!
20:32:50 Piecewise: Indeed
20:33:17 Piecewise: its was actually four 1's in a row, what with dex roll to see who goes first
20:33:22 Piecewise: quite unlikely
20:55:18 ER: hmm
20:56:52 ER: in a pvp game based on magic, would it be a good idea to have a limiting factor on how much magic can be cast within a certain area before reality starts exploding under the strain?
20:57:44 ER: I'd think this would give you incentive to cast things as big as possible as soon as possible, because you're essentially sharing a limited resource with the enemy.
20:58:08 ER: if you immediately cast the biggest possible spells, you get a larger share.
20:59:26 Piecewise: Its a good idea
21:00:09 Piecewise: How about instead of a limiter, a bonus! Where each turn you don't use the power you can add +1 to the next power or control roll?
21:00:21 ER: mhm. well, it's an idea that I stole from the webcomic Unsounded
21:00:30 Piecewise: So people can "Save up" and be more likely to succeed
21:00:40 ER: it's got a real interesting magic system, though it's not really the focus of the plot
21:01:39 Piecewise: hmmm
21:01:50 Piecewise: now how would you gamify reality stability slipping...
21:02:06 Piecewise: at least in a way that is easy to understand and gauge
21:02:14 Piecewise: for the players
21:02:15 Piecewise: hmm
21:02:31 Piecewise: maybe a sort of inverse use dice?
21:02:55 ER: the idea of the underlying "fabric" that supports magic getting overstrained when lots of people cast spells, and lashing out at anyone who casts when it gets too bad is something that came up in the past few pages.
21:02:56 Piecewise: that gets larger as it rolls the right numbers and forces chaos
21:03:35 ER: with the idea that if you want to keep the enemy from casting, you do a bunch of little junk spells until agitation reaches 99%
21:03:47 ER: and if they try to fight back reality kills them
21:06:54 ER: not sure I see the point of a use die here as opposed to, say, a gauge from 0-100
21:07:31 ER: once you reach 100 or certain break points, any attempt to cast will cause bad things
