00:04:00 IronyOwl: Yeah so far you guys haven't had any trouble with Idols refusing to do stuff, largely because half of them are desperate just to be here
00:04:14 IronyOwl: But you know, that might become relevant later on :D
00:41:06 Devastator: 'lo
00:41:13 ER: hi
00:41:36 Devastator: got a turn from whisperling.
00:41:45 ER: yeah?
00:41:57 Devastator: gang is better off than I thought.
00:42:02 Devastator: now.. gotta pick a fight with someone else.
00:43:42 ER: huh
00:43:52 ER: the walking dead VR game looks really good
00:44:09 ER: not that I'll ever be able to play VR games, but looks nice :P
00:48:38 Devastator: mmm
00:49:51 Devastator: IronyOwl?
00:50:12 Devastator: do those orders extend to the point where you're willing to allow one of them to take an extra turn to engage to seperate from the other?
00:59:34 Devastator: Also kinda want another turn, as I'm currently doing another ritual.. ;-p
01:00:20 Devastator: oh well, it'll come.
01:01:08 Devastator: "creating and then murdering clones to harvest their despair while also cycling souls through repeated resurrection and murder. Any thinking being could see that this is horribly wrong."
01:01:16 Devastator: So.. PMMM, except on a time loop?
01:01:24 IronyOwl: Yep
01:01:25 ER: so pmmm
01:01:45 ER: did you forget the time loop aspect of pmmm
01:01:50 IronyOwl: Oh, about the orders, hrmmmmm
01:01:50 Devastator: `2
01:01:59 IronyOwl: Yeesh, I guess so
01:02:15 IronyOwl: syv will probably keep his clumped, so it'll either cost me a turn or gain me a turn
01:02:22 Devastator: it's also subject to exactly how AoE something is.
01:02:27 IronyOwl: that too
01:02:33 Devastator: if it's a nuke out to a certain range, it's hitting everything.
01:03:26 Devastator: Sadly, you guys don't have any specific information as to how well-armed this kaiju is, and with what.
01:03:38 Devastator: And I haven't even built it yet, so I can't leak that info.
01:03:55 ER: I should ask syv if it's worth armoring that tank
01:03:58 ER: probably, right?
01:04:30 Devastator: it's your call.
01:04:36 Devastator: but yeah, you can armour that tank.
01:05:58 IronyOwl: I wonder if more intel would be worthwhile, but I'm likewise uncertain how much we'd be able to do with the information unless it was really detailed way in advance
01:07:13 Devastator: it'll probably be more helpful when you have more designs and can choose what you're building each month.
01:11:00 Devastator: or like have giant mechs and choose what weapons to put on them.
01:11:28 ER: G I A N T M E C H S
01:11:46 ER: hopefully with actually competant people driving them
01:14:06 Devastator: This is k-com.
01:14:10 Devastator: they're all incompetent.
01:14:14 Devastator: but equally so.
01:16:45 IronyOwl: would it be possible to research not-shit pilots?
01:19:56 IronyOwl: would it be possible to *build* not-shit pilots?
01:20:20 ER: just stick catgirls up in there
01:20:23 ER: its fine
01:20:25 Devastator: I'm not sure what you want from the pilots.
01:25:36 IronyOwl: Me neither, since I don't know how the system works :p
01:26:29 IronyOwl: I just assume there's some way a pilot could do a better job, and they're probably not really doing it because everyone aspires to be the lowest bidder
01:27:38 Devastator: well, if you want something specific, go for it.
01:27:43 Devastator: but I need more direction than 'better'
01:27:47 Devastator: unless you're a mad scientist.
01:28:11 IronyOwl: ...is that how Happerry got a vampire tank?
01:28:49 Devastator: No, that was a consequence of excessive mad science.
01:28:58 Devastator: or not enough mad science.
01:29:49 IronyOwl: Keep mad sciencing until you are satisfied with your product or your rocky sphere of habitation has lost one of those qualities?
01:29:57 ER: mad science horseshoe theory
01:30:26 IronyOwl: oh wait wait I gotta know
01:30:34 IronyOwl: Did Happerry know about the feasting before he sold it? XD
01:31:40 Devastator: Every single mad scientist turn includes some variant on 'you are not yet satisfied with what you have produced.'
01:31:46 Devastator: and sort-of.
01:41:50 Piecewise: Dang it dev, Either give me my good shit or stop posting on a tectonic timeline.
01:45:15 Piecewise: If I wanted to wait 25 days to be disappointed, I'd just wait 25 days and then look in the mirror
01:53:01 ER has quit [Quit: HydraIRC -> http://www.hydrairc.com <-]
01:58:17 IronyOwl: Your gatling wasps taking forever?
01:58:25 IronyOwl: Or just bad
02:00:43 IronyOwl: "not to just ragdoll around the room on their own recoil."
02:00:49 IronyOwl: that sounds pretty hilarious honestly
02:03:04 er has joined #einsteinianroulette
02:03:22 IronyOwl: Does having a starting product make mad scientist creations better? I know you said they can't "create from nothing" but they seem to do more or less that okay
02:08:45 Piecewise: I apparently have wasps with needle guns
02:08:54 Piecewise: you know whats good against giant monsters?
02:08:56 Piecewise: Not needles
02:09:23 Piecewise: My action is to rub kaiju bits on the problem until it fixes itself
02:22:56 IronyOwl: Are the needle guns good for delivering poison or acid maybe?
02:43:00 Piecewise: I mean
02:43:01 Piecewise: Maybe
02:43:15 Piecewise: but fuck it, if I can do acid needles I can do acid gaus
02:47:12 IronyOwl: fair enough
03:18:53 IronyOwl has quit [Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client]
04:24:21 Devastator: yes having something to build off helps.
04:24:36 Devastator: I'm sorry PW, I'll try to speed things up.
04:24:58 Devastator: also, the guns are 'needle guns' because you have a swarm of ordinary-sized bugs.
04:25:17 Devastator: well, big, but medium swarms of bug-sized bugs.
04:27:00 Devastator: Also, they do follow orders, they just.. don't have much to fire at, at the moment.
04:27:02 Devastator: Piecewise.
04:27:32 Piecewise: MAKE EM BIG
04:28:47 Piecewise: LARGEESE
04:28:50 Devastator: Yeah, that's fine. You're good up to a medium-sized swarm, and yeah, they can get deadlier.
04:29:10 Devastator: basically you either get a medium swarm of tiny bugs, or individual bugs the size of cars.
04:29:15 Devastator: well, tanks.
04:29:20 Devastator: or anywhere in between.
04:29:27 Devastator: more deadly can happen.
04:30:55 Devastator: Do let me know how much flesh to shove into them.
04:31:01 Devastator: at the moment I'm gonna assume 'all of it.'
04:39:49 Piecewise: I want big ass bugs with big ass guns and as many of them as possible
04:40:11 Piecewise: big ass guns can be interpreted as Big Ass and Big-ass
04:41:43 Devastator: ok.
04:41:49 Devastator: so rougher, tougher, and more.
04:41:55 Devastator: and use how much flesh?
04:41:57 Devastator: of 5.
04:55:32 Piecewise: I mean
04:55:46 Piecewise: Is there any indication of what flesh does mechanically?
04:56:03 Piecewise: am I adding +1's to a dice or is it more loosey goosey
04:59:05 MidJag has joined #einsteinianroulette
05:00:15 Devastator: It makes stuff tougher.
05:00:24 Devastator: it also makes it harder to mass manufacture or duplicate.
05:00:36 Devastator: it depends a little on what kind of flesh, but it will always make your end product 'better'
05:00:52 Devastator: which is good so long as it doesn't escape you and go on a rampage.
05:00:58 Devastator: unless taht's your intent.
05:01:34 Devastator: heya MJ.
05:02:15 MidJag: hiya dev
05:02:33 MidJag: how're you?
05:03:04 Devastator: pretty good.
05:03:18 Devastator: whisperling gave me an update earlier, so now I want a ruling on injecting more magic into my character.
05:03:25 Devastator: mostly doing prep work for doing something actually big.
05:04:01 MidJag: Neat
05:04:11 MidJag: I've been doing fraternity shit all weekend.
05:04:21 Devastator: mmm.
05:04:47 Devastator: fun.
05:06:03 Devastator: Also, it is better if you ahve something to build off of, but it isn't required.
05:06:13 MidJag: I see
05:06:40 Devastator: just for k-com.
05:06:50 MidJag: Neat
05:15:29 MidJag: The fraternity shit went well I think.
05:16:36 Devastator: you think?
05:17:00 MidJag: I was in charge of organizing it, so it's mostly wether everyone thought it was fun or not.
05:18:59 Devastator: mmm.
05:19:04 MidJag: And I'll probably hear through the grapevine the general thoughts on it in a few days.
05:21:30 Devastator: good luck.
05:21:35 Devastator: unless everyone was too drunk to remember.
05:22:54 MidJag: heh, if that's the case people will probablyl just assume they had a good time ~
05:32:38 Devastator: good stuff.
05:32:43 Devastator: what kind of things did you do?
07:33:08 Piecewise has quit [Ping timeout: 246 seconds]
07:35:13 MidJag: sekrets~
07:35:17 MidJag has left #einsteinianroulette
07:39:14 Devastator: sekrets.
08:14:01 Devastator: syv?
08:16:04 er: Noh
08:18:52 Devastator: kk.
08:19:00 Devastator: thinking about posting in Cabal.
08:19:27 Devastator: you want to see if you can absorb magicoal for mana?
08:19:35 Devastator: or Zavi, at least.
08:21:59 Devastator: Also, my character is now a "Peak Human."
08:22:02 Devastator: yay.
09:23:23 er: You may not like it but this is what peak performance looks like
09:38:13 Devastator: hmm?
11:25:58 er: Mmh.
11:46:03 er: Glub
11:46:32 er: Now that the weekend is passed, should play more Terranigma
11:47:07 er: Just... so easy to be intimidated by a game becoming more open.
11:47:22 er: Especially like 75% through. :p
11:48:17 er: All that time seeing if I can fight its railroading, suddenly it's going to *let* me
