04:25:26 Devastator: hmm.
04:25:32 ER: mm
04:25:48 Devastator: oh, Piecewise, you have your bugs in k-com.
04:26:13 Devastator: As is you can deploy bugs somewhere, but you need more flesh to build a hive permanently somewhere.
05:16:27 Devastator: Also, I don't see any orders to design catgirls from you, ER.
05:21:38 ER: that's hard.
05:21:57 ER: specially because I have to do everything else that's important.
05:22:08 ER: including intel stuff
05:22:18 Devastator: Fair enough, although intel stuff doesn't take time so much.
05:22:42 ER: action phase is just "deploy units", this phase I have to think about every single decision I have for the enitre month, pretty much
05:23:51 Devastator: yeah.
05:24:00 Devastator: plus any coordination with mad scientists.
05:49:27 Devastator: Do you think I should change how I split up the turns?
05:49:42 ER: I don't know.
05:59:29 Devastator: mmm.
05:59:51 Devastator: also, likely going to work on locking down the magic room soo.
05:59:53 Devastator: soon.
05:59:59 Devastator: so please don't blow yourself up.
06:24:37 syv has joined #einsteinianroulette
06:25:46 Devastator: Oh, hey.
06:26:19 ER: hiii
06:27:37 ER: whisperling did say he would go back to Ebony at some point, but he happens to be currently running a different game on discord.
06:27:45 ER: which I am having fun with :V
06:28:02 Devastator: mmm.
06:28:14 Devastator: Well, that's good to hear.
06:28:23 Devastator: also kinda bad because I wanted my arena fighter..
06:28:25 ER: we got an airship and magitech
06:28:38 Devastator: mmm.
06:28:55 syv: What is Ebony?
06:29:19 syv: The only one I can recall was Twinwolf's char in Omega Legion.
06:29:26 ER: an uh, open world wizard game!
06:29:27 syv: And she was more Evony.
06:29:32 syv: Oh!
06:30:06 syv: ...I have too many games I'm in right now. Hrm.
06:30:18 syv: Ah, is this the PM game where Dev got ignored?
06:30:23 ER: yup.
06:30:27 Devastator: Yeah, but eventually Whisperling did me some turns.
06:30:36 Devastator: unfortunately it was just picking up when it got dropped.
06:31:05 Devastator: Doubt it would have been a truly long-term thing, but I wanted some arena fights.
06:31:31 syv: Oh well.
06:32:08 Devastator: yeah.
06:35:37 Devastator: glad the new one is fun, but eh.
06:37:41 Devastator: also got airships and magitech in cabal..
06:37:53 ER: We got service pistols powered by our souls which fire "concussive" blasts. Then someone made a bigger version which can store more energy for bigger shots. And asked me to help him test "something" and shot me with the lowest setting, which is equivalent to our normal pistols.
06:38:07 ER: under the reasoning that it's "just concussive force" :P
06:39:59 syv: In Ebony?
06:40:09 ER: nah, in the new game
06:40:15 ER: Scrap III
06:40:18 syv: Discord?
06:40:20 Devastator: so did you get your soul sucked out?
06:40:20 ER: ye
06:40:22 Devastator: Probably.
06:40:28 Devastator: so.. can't play if I'd wanted to.
06:40:31 syv: Mm.
06:40:49 Devastator: well, you could make soulguns in Sh.
06:41:05 ER: soul powered, not soul-damaging...
06:41:28 Devastator: the main trouble being that you'd need to track down an imprison spirit(s) to shoot it.
06:41:40 ER: and no, I got out of that because the player said he missed, and then I told him off.
06:41:42 syv: Gasoline powered engines are generally considered to be "damaging" to the gasoline used, I think.
06:41:51 Devastator: Yes, usually.
06:42:21 ER: all of our things are spirit powered, and human souls are just spirits latched on to our bodies
06:42:30 ER: they produce energy constantly
06:42:46 ER: you could probably kill yourself by draining, but it's usable
06:42:58 syv: Not all settings involve souls that break thermodynamics. *shrug*
06:43:18 Devastator: mmm.
06:43:30 Devastator: well, magic game anyway.
06:43:31 ER: your setting's souls definately do though
06:43:40 Devastator: Sh's?
06:43:44 ER: PS
06:44:03 Devastator: In Sh that's trueish.
06:44:08 Devastator: but not in that way.
06:45:11 ER: our ship is pretty much a big metal bullet propelled by an imprisioned spirit of force
06:46:10 syv: I'm not entirely sure that's been confirmed.
06:46:12 Devastator: Hmm, spirit of force.
06:46:19 syv: Souls are still zero sum.
06:46:22 syv: In PS
06:46:33 Devastator: I could summon a force spirit in Cabal.
06:46:49 syv: If sufficient energy went into them initially, they don't create new energy...
06:47:03 ER: well, in that case it's possible spirits draw their energy from somewhere unseen!
06:47:29 syv: Also, powering stuff with soul in PS is 100% definitely soul damaging.
06:48:07 ER: well, like the body, the soul can repair itself
06:48:45 ER: so it being damaging isn't mutually explusive with it being replinishable
06:48:52 Devastator: Yeah.
06:48:56 Devastator: though better hope the pool doesn't run dry.
06:49:09 Devastator: and I still wouldn't volunteer to test-fire a cannon.
06:51:32 ER: oh yeah, and I'm dropping a bomb someone just invented on some flying creatures
06:51:46 ER: so hopefully it doesn't blow up in my hands when I activate it
06:54:14 Devastator: hmm, a soul-powered bomb.
06:54:18 Devastator: Wouldn't count on that, no..
06:54:40 ER: nah, it's just full of force energy harvested from our "engine"
06:55:55 syv: I had a dream right before I woke up. An old man and I were having a strange duel. It kept having false starts because I was reluctant to shoot him, and he knew it and was toying with me. He ended up shooting me after I shot him, and he shot me many more times because I rapidly lost strength and couldn't pull my gun's trigger.
06:56:07 syv: I don't think my bullets did anything to him either.
06:57:01 ER: congrats, you just fought a PC
06:57:24 syv: Mm.
06:57:52 syv: It wasn't Ben, at least. Ben would have agreed to start on three then immediately headshot me without waiting.
06:58:36 Devastator: That sounds like Sekiro.l
06:58:42 Devastator: and maybe too man dark souls runs?
06:59:14 syv: I don't think I've played Dark Souls this month.
06:59:22 syv: Also, Dark Souls does not have guns.
06:59:23 Devastator: oh, so the opposite problem then.
07:00:06 syv: Not game influenced anyway. I was using my actual PS90, which is why the trigger was even an issue. It has a crap trigger.
07:00:12 syv: Think I was in my house too?
07:00:43 Devastator: ok.
07:02:17 Devastator: I hope Piecewise understands that we're trying to summon the key via reverse-banish through the scry spell.
07:02:39 syv: Should I edit my action?
07:04:19 Devastator: Dunno. I suspect he'll ask us either way.
07:04:55 Devastator: No, it's good.
07:29:03 Devastator: So you're making a clockwork drill?
07:29:11 Devastator: or did one already get made?
07:31:50 syv: No.
07:32:44 syv: It's a... giant powered rotary saw that cuts through metal with ease.
07:32:53 syv: Should be in Ekrov's sheet.
07:33:36 syv: "A strange blunt clockwork circular saw that is extremely effective at cutting through metal."
07:35:34 Devastator: ahh, right.
07:35:43 Devastator: should be good, hopefully.
07:36:02 Devastator: although if it fails, I'm going to turn the cutting bit into steel so it can be better strengthened.
07:36:04 Devastator: Hmm.
07:36:09 Devastator: what do you think we'll find in the palace?
07:36:30 syv: Who's to say it isn't akready steel?
07:36:44 syv: Dunno about the palace.
07:36:52 syv: Thaumic junk, prolly.
07:37:31 Devastator: mmm.
07:37:46 Devastator: well, should be some fine artwork at least.
07:43:28 Devastator: I'll go edit my post to explicitly buff that clockwork saw.
07:45:22 Devastator: good job on making it, handy tool.
07:46:06 Devastator: Also, from what pw said, I think we could view or banish someone inside the room if we can only get a tiny gold wire through the wall, so don't ened a big hole.
07:49:52 syv: Ekrov didn't make it, it was loot from the clockwork wreck.
07:52:31 Devastator: oh, nifty.
07:52:33 Devastator: wait..
07:52:52 Devastator: Was it a tool, or an airship-mounted melee weapon?
07:54:09 Devastator: must be a tool if it's portable.
08:01:17 syv: It's a tool. Made to be used by the robot engineers.
08:02:34 Devastator: ahh, good.
08:02:47 Devastator: If they'd gotten into the habit of putting melee weapons on their airships I'd have to change plans.
08:06:13 Devastator: Well, I suppose I wouldn't.
08:06:18 Devastator: it'd just make it more awesome.
08:06:19 Devastator: hmm.
08:25:32 syv: https://mobile.twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1236778368533700609
08:25:40 syv: This is amusing.
08:25:53 Devastator: Yeah, that was around for a few weeks.
08:25:55 Devastator: what an idiot.
08:27:37 ER: huh
08:27:47 ER: how... unobservant
08:28:24 syv: It's admittedly one of the least observant.
08:29:23 ER: does he have a brain in there or is his body animated solely by a spirit of ego
08:29:43 Devastator: I'm not certain he has asked a question with the intention of learning something new in his entire lifetime.
08:32:20 syv: Oh, I'm sure he has.
08:32:28 syv: His father just beat it out of him.
08:33:10 Devastator: mmm.
08:33:15 Devastator: or spoiled it out of him.
08:33:48 Devastator: "you don't need to know anything because all your problems can be solved with money."
08:36:19 Devastator: "You don't need to show loyalty, because you can always buy new friends."
08:37:31 ER: I know that I've trained the youtube algorithm well when one recommended video is "god is dead OwO"
08:37:40 Devastator: Hah.
08:37:51 syv: Why do you want to see OwO?
08:38:27 ER: also this https://youtu.be/aoBWUs8poYU
08:38:35 ER: very well trained algo
09:06:53 ER has quit [Quit: HydraIRC -> http://www.hydrairc.com <- It'll be on slashdot one day...]
09:52:03 er has joined #einsteinianroulette
09:52:16 er: PS when
09:53:43 syv: Yesterday. Didn't you see the update?
09:55:31 Devastator: Dammit syv.
09:55:34 Devastator: I hadn't checked tonight.
09:55:45 syv: Sorry. That was mean.
09:55:53 Devastator: It's ok, but dammit.
09:58:38 er: The last update I saw was probably yesterday, that seems plausible.
09:58:53 er: But when's the NEXT update?
10:00:26 syv: I earnestly cannot say.
10:00:39 er: You lazy skeleton
10:00:46 syv: I should update tonight. I have no reason not to. However, I should have updated yesterday.
10:00:54 syv: Or the day before.
10:03:55 er: I would offer you 2hu music in this trying time, but I already put my computer away and I'm just on my phone to bug you.
10:04:11 syv: I have 2hu music you've linked saved up on my phone.
10:04:17 syv: And some of the better ones on my comp.
10:04:52 syv: Alex4Win released a preview of his AoTTG map editing program, and it looks ridiculously amazing.
10:04:52 er: Mmm
10:06:17 er: Alas, my power is limited to telling you to just do it
10:06:23 syv: Yeah. Super exciting to me, but meaningless to others.
10:06:26 er: So just do it
10:06:52 syv sighs
10:07:00 er: My brain only supports two axies
10:07:19 Devastator: No wonder you had triple-fork ability, then.
10:07:24 er: So anime good, spidermangame bad
10:08:19 syv: I can make more people happy by helping mod the spiderman game, with less effort, with far less self hatred, and more sense of personal achievement.
10:08:32 syv: By all logic it makes much more sense to spend my time on it.
10:10:03 er: And text is like, one axis
10:10:14 er: So super relaxed cpu
10:10:29 er: Can read that stuff all day
10:11:09 syv: Yeah. And there's far more text than you are reasonably *capable* of reading, already out there.
10:11:38 er: And none of it is PS
10:12:06 syv: Much of it's very similar, though. Much of it is better. I could create things which don't exist and don't have analog.
10:13:31 er: Maybe better objectively, but for me personally? Not really.
10:13:41 syv: You're one person.
10:13:55 syv: Even if there's ten people who adore PS, that's ten people.
10:14:26 er: I am the person whose happiness I care about :)
10:15:15 syv: Yeah. And mine too.
10:15:28 syv: Doesn't mean it makes sense. ._.
10:17:00 er: Many things don't make sense, such as how we begin screaming when we contemplate writing something that 10 other people will see.
10:17:47 er: And yet these things that make no sense are part of our reality, and wer cannot ignore them.
10:18:02 syv: Yes we can.
10:18:06 syv: I do that a lot.
10:20:03 er: You can ignore it like you can ignore a steel wall. It causes pain when you walk into it.
10:20:25 syv: Mm.
10:20:49 syv has left #einsteinianroulette [You]
