01:44:19 ER: it says Devastator is on, but it's probably lying
01:44:25 Devastator: Hmm?
01:44:30 ER: oh well, I started a thing http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=174909.0
01:44:36 ER: if you want to watch
01:44:54 Devastator: I did see.
01:44:58 Devastator: think I"ll play if that's ok.
01:45:14 ER: heh, I don't mind.
01:45:24 Devastator: Got a character in mind.
01:46:23 ER: go for it
01:46:43 Devastator: Marco!
01:47:25 ER: hopefully if I don't take it too seriously, I can brutally murder player characters and bring the end ever closer?
01:47:38 Devastator: Marco isn't a serious character.
01:47:49 Devastator: but could I start with 1 in the defence stat and three lives?
01:48:08 ER: if someone posts a serious character here, I'll try my level best to not take them seriously
01:48:53 ER: You could start with 0 in the defense stat!
01:49:09 ER: assuming that's menace
01:49:12 Devastator: hmm.
01:49:17 Devastator: nah, prolly 1.
01:50:35 ER: Health is condition, but you can roll menace to not go down a condition state
01:50:36 Devastator: I can't remember if Metal Slug was the name of the mercenary group Metal Slug characters belong to, or just the name of their tanks.
01:51:01 ER: well then google it ;p
01:51:24 Devastator: Yeah, but anyone can do that! Only ridiculous nerds like me can remember obscure plot points in high-paced quarter-eaters.
01:51:37 ER: apparently not
01:52:11 Devastator: Yeah.
01:52:19 Devastator: I'd better not fail next time, they might take away my membership.
01:55:57 Devastator: Are items important?
01:56:20 Devastator: or should I just take stuff instead of caring much about what I take.
01:57:10 ER: If you take too much shiny stuff I'll prod people to swipe it from you~
01:57:23 ER: I dunno, it's as important as anything
01:57:26 Devastator: mmm.
01:57:32 Devastator: I'll add a HEAVY MACHINE GUN.
01:57:35 Devastator: because obligatory.
01:57:45 ER: whatever you do will be subject to the raw horror of the unmodified 1d6
01:57:58 Devastator: Yes.
01:58:53 ER: due to a freak manufacturing error, the barrel of the heavy machine gun points out the stock!
02:02:04 ER: okay, gotta go to work in the morning, night!

02:57:25 Devastator: jej
03:09:16 Devastator: I still maintain 'you are a D-list batman villain' was the best concept for a RTD.
03:12:09 Devastator: ugh.
03:12:14 Devastator: will finish the rules post tomorrow.
03:17:16 er: Be nice if I could have a list with the prices of all the things I can make, as well. :P
03:17:36 Devastator: That would be.. everything.
03:17:47 Devastator: and it doesn't quite work that way. ;-p
03:17:53 Devastator: Ok.
03:18:13 Devastator: I'll give you a price for something if you can correctly answer this question.
03:18:37 Devastator: Was "Thou" the alternative for the "Tu" or "Vous" usage of "You"
03:26:09 Devastator: eh.
03:26:14 Devastator: don't worry about it.
03:26:20 Devastator: whaddya want a price for?
03:37:50 er: I can currently remember the price of all the things I've invented thus far.
03:38:43 er: But as that list will likely grow, it'll be nice to have a catalog in my spoiler.
03:39:01 Devastator: Ahh, fair point.
03:39:16 Devastator: I do keep records of those. I'll rearrange something.
03:39:26 Devastator: it's 75 for a laser technical and +25 for armouring one.
03:40:45 er: Yeah.

04:01:16 Devastator: heya syv.
04:01:26 syv: heya dev.
04:01:29 syv: No woof.
04:01:34 Devastator: Tis ok.
04:01:38 Devastator: expected no woof.
04:01:53 Devastator: i'll finish rules post tomorrah.
04:01:57 syv: Sorry.
04:02:07 syv: Work's been flipping me around a lot.
04:02:10 Devastator: no worries.
04:02:17 Devastator: Stuff was breaking all day today.
04:08:00 Devastator: Also, ER.
04:08:02 Devastator: http://loweringthebar.net/2019/10/fourth-level-subcontractor-ruins-murder-plot.html
04:12:26 syv: Somewhat amusing that their clothing gets more generic as they go down the chain, but it caps genericity only three people in.
04:13:28 Devastator: "In no particular order."
04:13:49 syv: I choose to believe they're in order. They should be.
04:13:53 Devastator: Yes.
04:13:57 Devastator: Murder conga-line.
04:14:08 syv: Either that, or they should go from tall to short as they go down the line.
04:14:26 Devastator: Although I'm waiting for the day there's a principal and one hitman. Hitman killed the target, and had another hitman to kill the first hitman.
04:14:28 Devastator: and so on.
04:18:39 er: Hi syv
04:19:42 er: People were talking about that in one of the B12 GD threads.
04:20:02 er: Couldn't say which, they all blend together.
04:22:21 Devastator: Yeah.
04:23:20 er: It's notable that out of all of those "hitmen", none of them appeared to actually be willing to kill the guy.
04:24:33 Devastator: Yes.
04:25:14 syv: Yeah. I mean, most prospective hitmen would end up unwilling I'd imagine, but to go five steps down the chain and not have even *one* guy capable of finding an actual killer? That's fairly impressive.
04:25:45 Devastator: Heh.
04:25:50 Devastator: Probably not that unusual.
04:25:57 Devastator: I don't know where I'd find someone actually willing to kill a dude.
04:27:43 syv: Nor do I. Closest people I could contact to that are all too comfortably well-paid to take such a risk, pretty sure.
04:28:50 syv: ...Hell, out of the vast majority of people I know, I'm pretty sure assassinating someone myself would be both safer and cheaper.
04:34:20 er: ...Yeah, assuming I were willing to kill random people, I'd also have to be very good at doing so before that looks like a good idea. So you'd end up with either a very rare kind of person or an idiot, which are in no short supply.
04:35:35 er: This society seems pretty good at punishing murderers, I think.
04:36:08 Devastator: and people who resist eminent domain.
04:37:03 syv: Well, I don't think those people are *so* rare. Most police and military are natural choices, they have the capability, which only leaves the ability to avoid being caught, and the willingness to do it. Second is hard but not *too* hard, last is super super rare.
04:37:50 syv: If you have easy access to firearms, that makes it a whole lot easier too.
04:38:11 er: Still more rare than dumb young men who will insist they're super badass ninjas.
04:38:17 syv: Yes.
04:38:18 Devastator: plus you get the wrong guy you go to jail.
04:38:25 syv: Yes.
04:50:56 Devastator: everyone goes to jail.
04:52:00 Devastator: eeeeveryone.
04:53:06 er: Everyone in the audience is GOING TO THE BIG HOUSE
04:53:41 Devastator: BIIIG HAWSE.
04:55:14 er: The spooky mansion on the hill.
04:56:49 er: This time I've learned my lesson. If I have more than five players, I'll *immediately* split them up. That's what I'm supposed to do, right? Split the party?
04:57:15 Devastator: yes.
05:04:19 Devastator: 11 seperate groups is better.
05:05:36 syv: No, 30 groups of 1 each.
05:05:55 syv: Everybody gets monthly updates.
05:06:02 Devastator: yay!
05:06:16 syv: Except for 29 and 30, who are skipped in February.
05:07:17 er: This page of K6BD is... pretty.
05:07:44 Devastator: not enough sparkles.
05:08:17 er: Unless I'm blinded by the presence of cute girls, this is graphically pleasing.
05:08:59 er: I guess it would be in that case as well, but I'd consider it to be cheating.
05:09:36 er: But I'm pretty sure that I enjoy the bayish special effects .
05:10:58 syv: I checked the page.
05:11:07 syv: I was promised cute girls. Where are they?
05:11:39 er: I promised nothing~
05:11:47 Devastator: yeah, we have a demon and an overstuffed chair.
05:13:13 syv: Admittedly this demon is usually cute. Just... not on this page.
05:13:41 syv: Ali, though? Nooooo.
05:13:50 Devastator: Yeah, that's a really bad outfit for Ally.
05:13:58 Devastator: I think Ali is from paris's game.
05:14:06 Devastator: although Ally is Alison.
05:14:23 syv: Yeah.
05:14:25 Devastator: although she's probably young enough so it's Alyisson or something like that.
05:14:52 syv: Ayyizzen.
05:16:45 er: I named my demon kid that because I'm a talentless hack who can only copy things he's seen in the past week.
05:17:38 syv: Are there any outfits that make Ally cute?
05:17:47 syv: Also, named your demon kid what? Coca Cola?
05:18:26 Devastator: Not really, not as she is now.
05:18:26 er: Ali
05:18:48 Devastator: I think the author just prefers to dress up demons.
05:19:55 er: Fabulous demons.
05:28:21 syv: ER, which stat in your game is for dodging?
05:32:35 Devastator: all of them.
05:38:16 Devastator: yay.
05:38:21 Devastator: glad to see Marco! approved.
05:39:36 Devastator: although maybe I should have made one of the other chars.
05:42:01 Devastator: Tarma!
05:42:23 syv: Tarma?
05:42:33 er: Lessee
05:43:12 Devastator: Another metal slug character.
05:43:38 er: Most likely Fright for deflecting or Spook for outright avoidance.
06:03:15 Devastator: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Copley_Medal
06:03:29 er: Rather than fail to sleep, I will now eat this bowl of soup.
06:04:29 Devastator: was reading about Hevesy.
06:05:14 er: ...and boot up my laptop, sure.

06:20:25 Devastator: With the inevitable result.
06:20:38 Devastator: and the surprise of Slovakia actually building a unit before the end of the game.
06:20:40 ER: defeat?

06:28:08 MidJag: Will try to get to it a bit later in the year
06:28:16 MidJag: hiya ER
06:28:20 MidJag: and oh hey a syv
06:28:26 Devastator: hmm.
06:28:36 ER: are you interested in an exciting new RTD which will almost certainly update much faster than you have time for!?
06:28:36 Devastator: I should find a link to terminator, but pirate bay isn't working for me atm.
06:28:59 Devastator: ahh, there it goes.
06:29:01 MidJag: sure ER

06:33:16 Devastator: you got an escaped lunatic!
06:33:20 Devastator: congratulations.
06:34:16 ER: did I?
06:34:46 ER: hmm, nice
06:35:01 Devastator: Yeah, now those are rarities.
06:35:26 ER: help, what's 180 cm like
06:35:52 Devastator: about six feet nothing, IIRC.
06:36:08 ER: help what's six feet like
06:36:16 MidJag: Like most of me.
06:36:29 syv: "Almost tall but not quite tall enough to be tall"
06:36:41 Devastator: "assuming male"
06:36:47 Devastator: "and adult"
06:36:59 syv: It's 5'11".
06:37:05 syv: And yes.
06:37:08 ER: huh, gonna wreck a fool with a bone-ashed cannon?
06:37:15 Devastator: foo
06:37:28 syv: `1
06:38:24 MidJag: Hmm, I kinda want to join ER. But I'm not sure I can promise I would actually give actions promptly
06:38:44 ER: that's what I thought.
06:38:56 syv: So what if you don't?
06:39:05 Devastator: survive by being absent.
06:39:10 ER: will probably have to try and break my habit of waiting for everyone to post, huh
06:39:15 syv: Hey ER can I have an ability to eat corpses to regain stats?
06:39:42 Devastator: ..doesn't using abilities cost a stat point?
06:39:48 Devastator: ..making that a net zero?
06:39:56 ER: your ability can be whatever silly thing, but it will always cost stats
06:40:35 syv: -1 to eat corpse, +2 upon corpse being eaten.
06:41:21 Devastator: -1 to eat corpse, +1 from eating corpse.
06:42:05 syv: -1 to eat corpse, +9001 from eating corpse.
06:42:14 syv: "WHATEVER SILLY THING YOU DESIRE"
06:43:16 MidJag: Hmm, what sorta thing should I do, I'm tempted to do like the doctor from Darkest dungeons, but I'm open to suggestions
06:43:27 Devastator: someone survivable.
06:44:03 MidJag: Ash from Evil dead~
06:44:10 syv: It's RTD, nobody's survivable. And there's no limits on characters, so just saying "Yeah I'm a planet" is both allowed and stupid.
06:44:14 syv: Ash is a good choice.
06:44:41 Devastator: hmm.
06:45:01 Devastator: next char should be the ghost of the Road Wizard.
06:45:59 ER: I like plague doc
06:46:34 MidJag: Hmm, What would the special ability be though
06:46:45 ER: Rather not allow abilities to give you permanant gains in stats.
06:47:57 ER: especially because you could just, like, dig up corpses.
06:48:05 Devastator: for Ash?
06:48:17 Devastator: "Groovy" grants temporary invincibility.
06:48:18 MidJag: Either one
06:48:22 ER: "this is my boom stick!"
06:48:52 Devastator: Ugh, gotta watch that one too.
06:48:54 syv: i already have that one tho
06:49:00 Devastator: This is my BOOM stick.
06:50:38 MidJag: We should watch that one
06:50:46 MidJag: ...wrong chat
06:50:51 Devastator: Yeah.
06:50:54 Devastator: but T1 first.
06:50:58 Devastator: I just gave out a link.
06:51:38 Devastator: Hmm.
06:51:57 Devastator: maybe BOOMSTICK simply renders everyone else incapable of doing anything for a turn, with any number of targets allowed.
06:55:14 Devastator: Looking at that boomstick scene I'm always struck by the though of how damn difficult it will be to put that watch on after it inevitably comes off.
06:56:44 MidJag: It's just like surgeon simulator then dev.
06:58:19 ER: hmm
06:58:51 ER: did you know that under the effect of berserkium, bombs have a way larger explosion radius?
06:59:24 Devastator: Yes.
06:59:27 Devastator: same with glass cannon.
06:59:39 Devastator: Fucking hueg boom that.
07:00:18 ER: yeah, but with bersekium you can just spray a bit on yourself, then spit a bomb which eats a huge circle of terrain
07:00:33 Devastator: aye.
07:00:41 Devastator: with glass cannon it will kill you.
07:01:09 ER: with glass cannon you will die
07:01:55 Devastator: YOU WILL DIE.
07:01:58 Devastator: and so will everyone else.
07:02:24 MidJag: I'm curious what nuke+glass cannon looks like
07:04:09 Devastator: everything is gone.
07:04:51 Devastator: I suppose you could survive by having it on like grand cross/timer, grand cross/timer, grand cross/timer, and running like mad.
07:12:50 syv: Explosion immunity.
07:12:58 Devastator: yeah, that would do it.
07:13:07 syv: Watch the ceiling though.
07:13:14 Devastator: also yeah.
07:13:32 syv: Might want a source of water? I don't know what nuke does to water, but it might help.
07:13:32 Devastator: although the boom might be big enough to off-load the chunks.
07:13:53 Devastator: Also, a nuke isn't all explosion damage.
07:13:56 syv: Also, yes, Berserkium is like #2 flask behind water flask.
07:14:08 Devastator: when I faceplanted with a nuke I had explosion immunity.
07:14:10 Devastator: and still died.
07:18:57 Devastator: Also, ryu pulled out of the tournament.

11:36:34 syv: Why specifically is "Daune" funny?
11:37:47 Elasticly_Rigid: I find Dig hard to pay attention to, and honored dead zombie brain would be a perfect in character excuse to not know what's going on.
11:38:19 Elasticly_Rigid: And a reference to Unsounded is the best idea I have for an HD character.
11:39:45 syv: Daune is an Unsounded char?
11:39:52 syv: Guess I need to read more.
11:40:00 Elasticly_Rigid: And by best I mean most amusing.

22:38:38 Devastator: So is it any good?
22:39:31 ER: I only read one of the epilogues. I'll have to finish disco elysium before I get sucked into something like that :P
22:39:53 Devastator: is it more thousands of words about nothing?
22:40:23 ER: no?
23:04:40 Devastator: ok.
23:05:40 Devastator: updated the rules.
23:06:41 Devastator: gah.
23:10:57 Devastator: welp, time to ask more questions!
23:11:48 ER: what is
23:13:16 Devastator: updated the k-com rules.
23:13:28 Devastator: so it's time to ask more questions of me.
23:14:10 ER: how do I build catgirls
23:16:16 Devastator: go research how to make catgirls, preferably with some indication of how you want them to be better.
23:16:32 Devastator: then go manufacture them.
23:20:33 Devastator: you need a medium lab or bigger, unless you want girlcats.
23:24:46 Devastator: it would also help if you say what kinda equipment you want them to have, otherwise it'll be catgirls with conventional infantry gear.
23:25:34 ER: catgirls with insect glaives, clearly.
23:26:04 ER: but well, they're basically humans so they should be able to equip whatever humans can
23:27:36 Devastator: Yeah.
23:27:49 Devastator: More details are good, though.
23:27:49 ER: wonder how viable it would have been to just go pacific rim and rush exotic superheavy lab and workshop so that I can build one single awesome mech
23:27:53 Devastator: the more stuff, the longer it'd take.
23:28:02 Devastator: The issue there is no results will mean no money.
23:28:14 Devastator: but I don't know the best route.
