02:36:32 Devastator: "No. The mere act of having a spare in stock prevents it from breaking."
02:43:07 piecewise: The guy who wrote kung pow enter the fist also wrote bruce almighty
02:43:19 piecewise: and the Jimmy Neutron movie?
02:43:35 piecewise: The jimmy neutron movie was nominated for an academy award?
02:44:51 Devastator: Life.. finds a way.
02:52:57 piecewise: THat year Monster's inc was also nominated
02:53:13 Devastator: I remember that being better than shrek.
02:53:43 piecewise: Some of them are pretty freaking weird
02:54:10 piecewise: wallace and Gromit beat howl's moving castle
02:54:47 Devastator: was it good or just good for you?
02:55:18 piecewise: Wallace and Gromit are always good, but I don't think they're up to the same level as a Ghibli movie
02:55:26 Devastator: The Boss Baby was nominated.
02:55:30 Devastator: Someone should be shot for that.
02:55:42 piecewise: I don't even have a stomach
02:55:47 Devastator: That's a contender for the worst thing ever put to film.
02:56:04 piecewise: I wonder if they just had NOTHING else
02:56:36 Devastator: it looks like most years everything gets nomiated.
02:56:55 Devastator: No, there's some missing.
02:57:00 Devastator: I have no idea then.
02:57:15 piecewise: Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse was nominated too
02:57:42 piecewise: that animated movie where spider man is a black kid and also a pig?
02:58:06 Devastator: I believe that is actually a long running alternate universe thing.
02:58:24 piecewise: I know nothing about it
02:58:36 piecewise: I just saw an image and there were like...5 spider things
02:58:58 Devastator: would make sense, yes.
02:59:00 piecewise: pig, black kid, white lady, oddly old and huge white guy....
02:59:19 Devastator: I know at least the first three of those are long runners.
02:59:22 Devastator: not sure about the last two.
02:59:39 Devastator: for some reason alternate spidermans were a thing.
03:03:28 piecewise: Yeah, check this one out
03:03:53 Devastator: I suspect that's someone with no shame.
03:04:42 Devastator: I think I like the background stuff more than the subject.

04:01:59 piecewise: my little cat always comes to me to be let out
04:02:05 piecewise: but she does not meow
04:02:14 Devastator: so just sits there and stares at you.
04:02:21 piecewise: she opens her mouth and then closes it again
04:02:30 piecewise: I think she intends to meow very quietly
04:02:34 Elasticly_Rigid has joined #einsteinianroulette
04:02:34 Devastator: Hmm, that's something.
04:02:42 Devastator: does your little cat ever meow?
04:02:52 piecewise: occasionally. very rarely.
04:03:07 piecewise: we got her as a feral cat, basically, born to a stray
04:03:38 piecewise: so she's quiet and doesn't really hang out with people except under certain circumstances
04:03:50 piecewise: she's very quick to get out of our way and very skittish in general
04:03:58 piecewise: total opposite of the bigger cat
04:04:29 Devastator: I had a feral cat that was more meowy than the non-feral one I had before it.
04:04:46 piecewise: she might be sort of cowed by the big one
04:04:58 piecewise: in the submissive roll
04:05:44 piecewise: he's pretty fearless and aggressive, and will just walk right up and sit on your chest and yell in your face
04:06:06 piecewise: he only has 3 canines
04:06:15 piecewise: because he snapped one off in my shoe
04:06:34 piecewise: which I found out only while walking around and something was stabbing me
04:07:31 Devastator: I had a big fat one that meowed twice in its life.
04:08:09 Devastator: once when I forgot to feed it for a bit and it ran out of food. And didn't get the idea after getting stared at for like an hour.
04:08:37 Devastator: The other when I once stepped on it when it was sleeping one step down from the top on the outside stairwell.
04:08:45 Devastator: sixteen years and it meowed twice.
04:09:34 Devastator: Other one was quite quiet. Not very friendly, except for with me.
04:09:45 Devastator: but he meowed more often than that.
04:10:50 Devastator: Also knew a barn cat that meowed every other step.
04:10:58 Devastator: which was difficult to comprehend.
04:11:18 Elasticly_Rigid has quit [Ping timeout: 256 seconds]
04:11:45 piecewise: Sounds like a shoddy muffler
04:13:35 Devastator: every two seconds unless it was ambushing something or asleep.
04:13:55 Devastator: Maybe it meowed so that all the mice would feel safe when it stopped?
04:14:48 piecewise: It was just letting you know where it was
04:15:08 piecewise: I have to lead my big cat upstairs by clicking my tongue in a sort of marco pollo fashion till he finds me

04:23:53 syv has joined #einsteinianroulette
04:25:11 MidJag: Also I appear to be the only person on this channel who's not a cat person.
04:25:38 syv: Also yeah, that is weird. Especially considering you're the only Jaguar.
04:25:47 Devastator: eh, I like cats. But I dunno if I'm a cat person.
04:25:51 syv: Like, you're the most literal catperson here.
04:26:22 syv: They're like giant loyal cats that don't understand cuddling.
04:26:38 MidJag: By catperson I meant more owning a cat as a pet.
04:26:45 Devastator: I don't have a cat currently.
04:27:04 MidJag: Okay, has owned a cat at any point in time.
04:27:08 syv: Which is also weird, considering a cat would work well for your living situation. Far better than a dog.
04:27:38 MidJag:
Syv, I can barely rember to feed myself, much less something else.
04:27:46 Elasticly_Rigid has quit [Ping timeout: 245 seconds]
04:27:54 syv: Cats are very good at reminding people to feed them.
04:28:14 syv: Aww, I didn't even notice
ER before he left. :(
04:29:02 Devastator: I think he's been gone for a bit.
04:29:21 Devastator: Cats aren't big on letting you forget to feed them.
04:29:23 syv: Oh yeah,
Piecewise, you cat probably *is* meowing quietly at you. Cats meow outside the range of human hearing, but within cat range. Especially if you have any hearing damage; my father can't hear some of the cats meow when it's very clear to me.
04:30:06 syv: So rather than just trying to meow quietly but chickening out, your cat's meowing softly and then thinking you're just an idiot when you don't respond.
04:30:18 piecewise: I actually have pretty good hearing. I can her her tongue click against her teeth or bottom of her mouth, which is how I know she's calling for me
04:30:26 piecewise: she somestimes gets a meow out
04:30:44 syv: Wow. That *is* excellent hearing.
04:30:55 piecewise: though its usually more like ".......eh"
04:34:39 piecewise: She only comes up if you're laying on the couch so you don't look as big and she gets so excited when pet that she drools
04:35:10 Devastator: my semi-feral drooled too.
04:35:11 syv: Petting == food, so the mouth must be prepared.
04:35:30 Devastator: also had my brother with a big long-haired white cat, basically a Dr. Evil cat that also drooled.
04:36:36 syv: My big white Maine Coon, Kevin, will drool. He's also very shy and doesn't like to be approached, but there's one specific spot on the couch that he seems to consider his petting station. If someone sits there, within a half hour he will find them and insist on being pet.
04:38:49 syv: Fetish wear for the dearly departed?
04:39:25 syv: Dig update. From... four days ago, huh.
04:39:39 MidJag: Are we talking about Dubs saturday nights?~

04:40:43 syv: Was gonna correct you on the day, but no, it's still Thursday for you isn't it?
04:40:58 Devastator: I suspect dubs just spends his saturday nights in a bowling league.
04:41:10 Devastator: The other members are still debating on if to breech the whole 'skeleton' issue.
04:53:17 piecewise: Dubs doesn't go outside
04:54:27 MidJag: I suppose the schorching desert sun bleaches his bones too much.
04:57:51 syv: It's a nice night out, over here. Humidity is only 91%.
04:58:28 syv: Sky's mostly clear too, it's been almost constantly overcast for about a weak.
04:59:49 syv:
Elasticly_Rigid, why is your thing set to autojoin when you aren't talking?
05:00:01 Devastator: so he can more easily read.
05:12:06 syv: I guess you aren't feeling better? :(

05:21:49 syv:
MidJag, how are you feeling?
05:24:17 MidJag: Better, though, they're thinking I might have gone with the wrong treatment might be like mycoplasma, which is a protist, rather than something strep like, either way I'm feeling better than I have.
05:31:50 syv: I don't lightning would be a better treatment...
05:32:21 MidJag: I'm watching
dev play brouge in the PM's talked in the wrong channel
05:54:18 Devastator: died due to bog monsters because I got sloppy.
05:55:07 Devastator: anyway, like the memories.
06:01:48 Devastator: Would you like orders?
06:02:55 syv: I think KM's the only one who really matters. From everyone else's perspective, there's been like ten seconds of watching Tooru sleeping.
06:03:05 syv: Very boring update in that way.
06:04:12 Devastator: It's great, really.
06:04:29 Devastator: Maybe I'll do some RP.
06:04:37 Devastator: "What happened? Who was she?"
06:05:53 syv: I do like Lucy's story, but I do wish I hadn't just stopped everything for a month and a half. It'd be better as the capstone to her labyrinth, rather than coming after it's out of everyone's recent memory.
06:07:20 Devastator: an excuse to reread it.
06:07:26 Devastator: and sometimes games do that.
06:09:33 syv: Mm. Rereading it won't be *that* great, since I wrote the labyrinth first. It's got more to do with her song than her story, though at least it does have something to do with her story.
06:09:59 syv: Wish y'all would've gone down into the black part of her labyrinth though.
06:10:16 Devastator: Ooh, that sounds like it would have been fun.
06:10:23 Devastator: although we were in there long enough, really.
06:10:29 Devastator: just went too directly, I guess.
06:10:34 Devastator: we did get the bomb room.
06:10:44 Devastator: and the other room.
06:10:55 syv: Yup. I hadn't thought the exploring would go so slow, and I made the caves/bunker section too large.
06:10:58 Devastator: What was that about?
06:12:01 syv: Essentially, the interiors connected the sky and underground. If you went up, you would've have exited on one of the stars, which were made of solid diamond, and were where the humans were being taken. If you'd have done that, you'd have come face to face with Lucy while she was still placated by music.
06:13:11 syv: If you'd've gone down, all the lights would disappear (several doors were opened which led into pitch black rooms), and the water would get deeper. In the lowest room would be a bunch of mementos (the normal kind) of Izzy and Lucy's life. This would piss her off if you found it, but she'd refuse to hit *those* with AoE attacks.
06:13:40 Devastator: we kinda went horizontally.
06:13:46 syv: If you did, well, what you chose to do, you'd be fighting an extremely tough flight-capable opponent throwing bombs at you from the sky.
06:13:48 Devastator: I think we went down a bit before the ballroom.
06:14:04 Devastator: so we should have went up or more down.
06:14:06 syv: Yup, I put too many rooms into the interior.
06:14:26 Devastator: would have been good as like 'go through three rooms, get to the boss area'
06:14:31 Devastator: we just went through five.
06:15:21 syv: Well, think about this. There were... eleven doors, I believe, off of the "hub" room that was inside the mansion's front door. Seven led to the same place, essentially, but the others led to different rooms. That's a bit much.
06:15:22 Devastator: Pfft, no sense second guessing. Docks area was fun.
06:15:42 syv: This isn't second guessing, this is recognizing flaws. ;P
06:15:56 syv: PS does better with an arena format rather than a dungeon format, I think.
06:17:01 syv: The game is most fun when you meet challenges that you have to overcome, but is also about minimizing encounters/expenditures. A full dungeon with many encounters would be lethal because every encounter has a cost, but a full dungeon with few encounters is uninteresting--empty rooms are boring, even if they have stuff in them, because the players don't really DO much.
06:17:26 Devastator: can't waste too many powers.
06:18:42 Devastator: Makes sense, though.
06:20:27 Devastator: so would have a huge labrynth, and it sounded like she was pretty powerful.
06:20:45 Devastator: or had sixth sense 1 from some dead witch?
06:21:17 syv: Maria only had pure love powers because she never killed a witch.
06:21:48 Devastator: so she didn't make it?
06:22:11 Devastator: no that makes sense.
06:22:17 Devastator: thought you said Izzy had pure love powers.
06:22:24 Devastator: Maria was spiderwitch who blew it.
06:23:32 Devastator: spending your powers in ordinary life is geneally a poor use of them.
06:23:43 Devastator: particularly when doing it to get one over your enemy.
06:28:00 MidJag has left #einsteinianroulette
06:28:28 Devastator: Well I'll be around for a bit.
07:24:30 er has joined #einsteinianroulette
07:25:49 er: Lure me to bed with nice relaxing PS facts.
07:26:34 syv: Did you know? Levi is more powerful than magical girls, because he can use TWO primary powers simultaneously!
07:28:15 er: Whether he could beat one in glorious area combat is a different question.
07:28:39 er: Which probably comes down to SOUL NOVAAAAAAAAAAA
07:28:40 syv: Did you know? Hannah uses a Cheytac M200 Intervention, which she stole from a collector, because she thought it would be the best possible tool for the role she wanted--killing things from as far away as possible. This was a bad decision!
07:29:13 er: I do not know what that is.
07:34:23 Devastator: Levi could win easy.
07:34:24 syv: There's a bunch of pictures of anime girls with the thing, but sizes are all wrong. One of them had a girl who must've been seven feet tall holding a frigging Barret.
07:35:05 Devastator: well, give her floor-length black hair and she could have been Nan in a few months. ;-p
07:36:34 Devastator: I don't see how she can manage to shoot anything.
07:36:53 Devastator: that just looks implausable.
07:37:57 syv: It's implausible because it's a four-foot thirty-pound gun she's cradling like an M4.
07:38:04 syv: Also, yeah, her eye isn't aligned.
07:38:32 syv: And the stock is held beside her shoulder, because the artist is lazy and used a 3d model, I'm guessing.
07:38:51 Devastator: CC takes care of bad cradling, and a badly lined up eye is okay when you aren't using the scope anyway.
07:39:15 Devastator: or someone who is about to be injured.
07:41:35 er: With SS, we don't need eyes.
07:41:53 syv: Well, you do if you want to shoot further than twelve feet.
07:42:17 syv: Prediction's where it's at if you want blindsense sniping.
07:42:27 er: Can you see an image in a mirror with SS?
07:43:21 Devastator: ...Probably not, actually.
07:43:55 Devastator: You could use a film camera.
07:44:06 Devastator: snap a shot, and know what it saw perfectly.
07:44:58 syv: I mean, if I let you do that, I might as well just say that you can see infinitely far, because with sixth sense you could totally look at all the photons as they're flying by and read into that to see distance. But I'm pretty sure that violates physics, *and* is broken.
07:46:37 Devastator: well, you'd have to take a new shot every few seconds, and point the camera the right way, and have your hands full.
07:46:59 Devastator: it would only show you everything that's in that direction at that one moment.
07:47:10 Devastator: which is useful, but not much more useful than your eyes.
07:47:22 Devastator: it'd be handy in complete darkness.
07:47:50 Devastator: plus you wouldn't be able to do the atomic-level shenanigans of SS3, because there is a minimum grain size in film.
07:48:16 er: Yes I'd like to know the position and velocity of every photon within twelve feet.
07:50:38 syv: The film camers trick would work, though yeah, it'd be worse than just using your eyes.
07:50:42 Devastator: Photons don't work that way.
07:50:55 Devastator: There'd be a few advantages, just not super ones.
07:51:20 Devastator: ..I also find it hard to believe a Cre MG wouldn't have slightly superhuman normal eyesight anyway.
07:51:25 syv: I'm pretty sure both of us are aware that photons don't work that way, and we were both joking about it.
07:51:42 syv: They essentially do, since talented cre means you're great at spot checks.
07:51:45 Devastator: I think
ER was making a different photon-related joke that indicated that photons worked in a different way.
07:51:57 syv: Functionally SS doesn't really enhance your eyes, though it might help a bit.
07:52:07 Devastator: Semblance should be able to.
07:52:43 Devastator: Alida tries for wolf-senses, gets distracted enlessly by random smells.
07:53:50 Devastator: They'd be way down on the list of things to try to think herself into having.
07:56:06 syv: In Lucy's labyrinth, at least one door that was opened led into an unlit shaft that just went down too far to see the bottom. If Mina had grown wings and gone down one of those shafts, then she probably wouldn't have died.
07:56:09 er: Man, I'm the only one on the current team with good Creativity.
07:56:55 syv: Did you know? You're all blind and Sophia must show you the way.
07:57:01 Devastator: and yeah, everyone's blind.
07:57:27 er: You are all blind and I will show you the way.
07:58:13 er: I counted Alida, Tooru, and Ada.
07:58:57 syv: Aleksandra has cursed Creativity, so she's no good either.
07:59:16 er: Aleksandra has a Cursed as well.
07:59:49 syv: Did you know? When Aleksandra first met Pumsy, he called her "Sasha"--she immediately insisted that he not call her that, because only friends call her that, however Pumsy didn't comply. Narration did, though!
08:00:14 Devastator: it's why Alida wants to get bigger. So she can just concentrate on smashing and let others do the looking.
08:00:24 Devastator: smashing can solve all problems.
08:00:31 er: The Narrator Is Not Your Friend
08:00:41 syv: Including whiny little siblings.
08:01:02 Devastator: eh, she likes them too much.
08:01:05 Devastator: even when annoying.
08:01:32 syv: How about teammates being incompetent?
08:01:41 Devastator: Don't see that happening too much with only 3 of them.
08:01:47 Devastator: although was temped with Asha.
08:01:54 Devastator: We went over that one IC.
08:02:20 syv: I just have to remember to not take your OOC complaints as reflective of Alida's IC thoughts.
08:02:47 Devastator: Yeah, you know I grumble too much.
08:02:57 Devastator: and we did go over that with Asha once.
08:03:05 Devastator: but Mina tried, and she got killed following her orders, so..
08:03:07 syv: Yeah. Alida is a wolf inside, while you're a goblin inside.
08:03:08 Devastator: pulling back on that some.
08:03:09 er: Sophia is going to be annoyed when we try to do anything stealthily and you all mess it up.
08:03:22 Devastator: I'm still waiting for a familiar that goes down in one hit.
08:03:48 syv: Actually, due to the assist system, it's hard for people to mess up stealth for others.
08:04:30 Devastator: I'm sure you could secretly hang people out to die, though.
08:05:35 Devastator: do stealth but don't make the assist bonus.
08:06:02 syv: It'd become clear as soon as the turn was posted, though.
08:06:37 syv: It also isn't a selfish idea, a cursed cre still has a *slight* chance of improving things for a talented cre.
08:06:39 Devastator: Unless the other person rolls a miracle.
08:07:22 syv: I likely wouldn't mark it as an assist, which would be a clear hint... though if both rolls succeeded, then nobody would notice, I imagine.
08:08:49 syv: Did you know? Pumsy loves you!
08:09:15 Devastator: Does Pumsy love us?
08:09:41 Devastator: one of these times I'm going to pull him into a labrynth.
08:09:54 syv: Also, no, that would be mean!
08:10:29 Devastator: well, wanted to first time, didn't work.
08:10:33 Devastator: second time, didn't get the chance.
08:10:46 Devastator: third time, I think I'll try it, but this time with mobility 3 and maybe a CC usage.
08:11:01 Devastator: should be harder for him to schooch away.
08:11:07 syv: Jeez, do you think he's going to explode into teeth and muscle?
08:11:23 er: I'm blaming you if that makes everything go horrible.
08:11:36 syv: He's just a cub made of [meat], Alida shouldn't need CC to wrangle him.
08:12:09 Devastator: I'm wondering at this point if something will happen.
08:12:25 Devastator: plus it'd be nice to have him around to ask questions to.
08:12:41 Devastator: well, [meat] [fluff] [fluff] and [eyeballs]
08:14:16 Devastator: and maybe [kitten] mixed in.
08:15:46 syv: Did you know? Bringing an actual literal kitten into the next labyrinth isn't the worst idea!
08:16:42 Devastator: although I don't know what it would do.
08:17:19 Devastator: eh, alida's going to be too busy to think of that. Probably not going to bring her older sister there, though, not after Mina died. Hopefully she won't insist too forcefully.
08:17:56 Devastator: bringing a ktiten, though, hmm.
08:18:30 Devastator: what would be so not worst about that idea?
08:18:59 Devastator: Right, kitten makes everything better.
08:19:16 er: Well if I see one I'll steal it and take it along.
08:20:27 syv:
ER, did you see the things I mentioned earlier about Lucy's labyrinth?
08:20:34 syv: Those are the obvious facts to mention if not.
08:21:24 syv: Did you know? There's a music link in the first paragraph of Lucy's memory.
08:26:02 Devastator: Obvious name in retrospective.
08:29:11 er: I did not listen to the song.
08:29:44 syv: It's not at all suitable to the memory, really.
08:30:35 Devastator: If Lucy had +1 magic, would she have been able to go to space with her wings?
08:31:29 syv: Unless you define space *very* generously.
08:34:03 Devastator: because they seem pretty awesome.
08:36:13 syv: In-universe, how powerful an MG is varies, and it's more of an inherent thing than experience. The gameplay mechanics of starting at L10 and gaining three levels per witch are just that--gameplay mechanics.
08:36:42 syv: Lucy started at a higher level, and notably began with Mobility L3 and TM L3+1.
08:36:59 Devastator: so doesn't work that way for her.
08:37:10 Devastator: Could she take them off?
08:38:45 er: That's the music used reading the memories.
