00:35:48 er: Contemplating starting a topic in fg&rp along the lines of those worldbuilding threads
00:36:24 er: An Archaeologist in a Dead Land
00:37:03 er: Got the first half of an op written, with the explanation of what it is
00:37:49 er: The other half would be basically submitting the first entry, as an opening and example
00:38:21 er: Didn't feel like doing that right now, hopefully i'll get a chance later
00:39:41 Devastator: mmm
00:41:03 Devastator: sounds ok.
00:56:18 er: Just okay?~
01:09:44 Devastator: sounds good.

02:49:53 Devastator: you know, talking about Venus like that is always a good reminder.
03:03:22 er: Yeah?
03:04:22 er: I don't see a problem. We just need to establish warring city-states floating up above the clouds.
03:04:27 Devastator: Venus is a terrible place.
03:04:49 er: But sky pirates
03:04:51 Devastator: we gonna watch something tonight?
03:04:52 Devastator: Irony?
03:05:22 er: Well, I was gonna see about sleeping
03:05:57 er: But so far no luck there, so may as well
03:06:02 er: ~
03:06:38 Devastator: I have mouths of madness. Can finish Leon the Professional fairly quick if you want that.
03:06:50 Devastator: I'll send syv a message.

03:16:22 Piecewise: Venus is a wonderful place. To look at from a distance
03:16:29 Devastator: oh yes.
03:16:35 Piecewise: I recommend not vacationing there because it rains sulfuric acid
03:16:47 Piecewise: among many other terrible things
03:17:48 Devastator: ..does it rain anything other than sulfuric acid?

03:28:39 Devastator: lovely.
03:29:06 Devastator: what's the lander survival duration record?
03:30:13 Devastator: looks like 110 minutes, which is actually damned impressive.

04:12:18 Devastator: mmm
04:12:21 Devastator: does seem interesting.
04:12:44 ER: I wonder if people will latch onto it, or find it too hard
04:13:45 Devastator: Some will.
04:13:53 Devastator: might end up being a bit different than you expect.
04:14:45 ER: ah, well, I intentionally left myself out of shaping what it becomes, outside of maybe making submissions of my own
04:14:54 ER: I just hope they don't make it lame ;p
04:21:03 Devastator: don't worry.
04:21:09 Devastator: the eternal rule of suggestion games.
04:21:12 Devastator: it'll always get lame.
04:39:16 ER: out of my hands~
04:49:10 Devastator: mmm.
04:49:25 Devastator: man, that was annoying in Orcs and Humans. RTS where all your buildings had to be connected to each other.
04:51:27 Devastator: surprised they ended up being the flag-carriers of the RTS. Not with that title.
04:52:32 Devastator: trying to play it in the modern age is like weeding a garden. Tedious hard work for the satisfaction of a job done.
04:55:58 Devastator: you'd defend by simply placing military units where the AI would path around them, taking whacks as they go along.
04:56:46 Devastator: and it took forever to kill anything.
04:57:39 Devastator: looking up the stats, it took thirty hits for a grunt soldier to kill another grunt.
04:57:41 Devastator: sheesh.
04:58:02 Devastator: twenty for an archer to kill another archer.. yeah.
05:16:45 ER: well, that's wordier than what i did. fine.
05:17:06 Devastator: heh.
06:00:03 Devastator: Oh, this kaiju is a giant blue sphere.
06:01:30 ER: angel time
06:02:17 Devastator: may as well.
06:02:28 Devastator: time to get crackin'
06:02:30 Devastator: you want a play-by play?
06:02:38 ER: nah
06:02:44 Devastator: ok
06:02:48 ER: not like I can do anything about it~
06:03:05 Devastator: I might make a math error.
06:03:30 Devastator: which you won't know about.
06:03:35 ER: ya think I'm gonna catch that?
06:08:29 Devastator: mmm.
06:08:37 Devastator: gonna get a chance of shooting at the transports.
06:08:45 Devastator: and I'll stop.
06:23:15 ER: remember this? http://www.bay12forums.com/smf/index.php?topic=140602.msg6191787#msg6191787
06:23:55 ER: that little thing was the first game I played on the forums
06:24:42 Devastator: yeah, I remember Limbo.
06:24:55 ER: less than a month before I turned 18, if my calulations are correct, which would make Corbin and Xael, my ER character, my teenage OCs! :D
06:30:17 Devastator: hmm.
06:30:20 Devastator: I do have a question, actually.
06:30:44 Devastator: did syv send you one with his dual-warhead missiles, or did he build one for you?
06:30:48 Devastator: I have you down as having a new one.
06:33:06 ER: how would I know something like that!
06:33:26 Devastator: If syv told you he sent you his good one you have it.
06:33:30 Devastator: but I have it down as a plain one.
06:33:44 Devastator: and no syv here to say otherwise.
06:35:05 ER: I didn't know he was sending me missiles
06:35:10 ER: give me the good ones
06:36:10 Devastator: nah, sorry, if you didn't know about it he'll keep it.
06:36:16 Devastator: it's okay, it tinked anyway.
06:54:17 Devastator: oh, merc gets to shoot.
06:58:43 Devastator: ok, I'll leave it there for tonight.
06:58:50 Devastator: should have started sooner. I'll finish it after work tomorrow.
06:59:06 ER: werk!
06:59:19 Devastator: yeah.
06:59:30 Devastator: some fun results so far.
06:59:52 ER has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
07:00:35 Devastator: aww.
07:00:39 Devastator: but understandable.
07:00:41 Devastator: good luck.
07:12:44 Devastator: :D
07:12:50 Devastator: good to get it rolling properly, though.
07:13:01 Devastator: and I think I finally have a good solution for player armour that I can stick with.

15:01:33 Devastator: worked on k-com a bunch last night.
15:01:36 Devastator: not finished yet.
15:02:07 NJW: heyhey
15:02:16 NJW: looking forward to the update
15:02:43 NJW: Battle of Tampa
15:03:21 Devastator: yeah.
15:08:22 NJW: hmm... Battle of Tampa is already a thing. A non-event approach of a Union gunship to a confederate port. Zero casualties.
15:09:44 NJW: Weird to think that the combined total of US war deaths since the Civil War barely exceeds the military deaths due to the Civil War itself.
15:10:51 Devastator: Civil war was really bloody.
15:11:17 Devastator: anyway, gotta head to work.
15:11:21 Devastator: thanks for stopping by.
15:19:46 NJW: see ya!
15:19:51 syv has joined #einsteinianroulette
15:20:12 syv: Hey, woah, NJW's here and I'm awake
15:20:17 syv: How ya doing, NJW?
15:20:55 NJW: Yeah, I guess that's pretty unusual
15:20:59 NJW: Not bad, yourself?
15:21:07 syv: Terrible!
15:21:16 NJW: oh dear. How come?
15:21:29 syv: So Dev's been occasionally hinting that there might be a Cabal 2...?
15:21:31 syv: Eventually?
15:21:49 syv: Just general depression and self hatred, comes and goes.
15:22:26 NJW: oof... sorry to hear it.
15:22:50 syv: Don't be, nothing new or unusual, nor something that isn't improving with time.
15:22:58 syv: Cabaaaaal?
15:23:15 NJW: Coven 2 might happen, but I want to make sure I have stuff in place that works - rolling systems, plot, etc.
15:23:24 NJW: The first game was kinda thrown together
15:23:26 syv: ...
15:23:37 syv: In my defence those two names are really similar.
15:24:42 syv: I suggest not stressing about it too much. Least for me, if I work on something until it's good enough, the something never happens. And it's very possible to keep something in the oven too long, besides.
15:24:54 syv: Sometimes seat of your pants is the best choice available.
15:25:18 NJW: That does sound like good advice. More time one spends thinking about something, less chance that it'll happen or last
15:25:30 syv: First game was really fun, anyway. If that's what you do just throwing stuff together, you definitely don't need to worry about making everything nice and pretty.
15:26:17 NJW: Still, there's a couple of RTDs I'd like to do first... barely posted in FG&RP for two years, so a bit of warm-up might be something.
15:26:38 syv: Yeah, not unreasonable, long as you got plans.
15:26:42 NJW: Btw, I think there's definitely a reason for that kind of mix-up: Coven and Cabal.
15:26:55 syv: I wanted in on that mechsuit game bad, but didn't see it before it had filled up...
15:27:05 NJW: Ideas passing between people on our bit of the forums... generally led by Piecewise
15:27:55 syv: Yeah, similar name, similar meaning, similar subjects. And both of them had Dev constantly talking about all the plots he was planning for his evil magical girl.
15:29:15 Piecewise: Oh someone pinged me
15:29:24 Piecewise: but it was just in reference to me
15:29:25 NJW: oh, yeah, sry
15:29:29 Piecewise: no prob
15:29:35 syv: Begone with you, skellington
15:29:41 syv: Wait wait no
15:29:41 Piecewise: *HISSSS*
15:29:46 NJW brandishes cross
15:29:47 syv: When's the next Cabal update
15:29:52 Piecewise: tomorrow
15:29:57 syv: Agh...
15:30:03 Piecewise: Mook and Dig today
15:30:19 syv: Yeah, at least those are easy to post in.
15:30:27 syv: Though maybe I'll skip Mook...
15:30:44 Piecewise: Mook already got posted~
15:31:10 Piecewise: By the way

15:31:16 Piecewise: can you see that image sy?
15:31:23 Piecewise: Paris said you'd probably hate it
15:31:40 syv: Yeah, I can see it.
15:31:57 syv: I think I've seen a similar grip elsewhere, though not so terrible with the fingers.
15:32:34 Piecewise: seems like a good way to break or strain a wrist
15:32:40 syv: Could actually make sense, maybe? More contact? Bugs me a little but I can almost see it.
15:32:44 NJW: So, Bob passes out of this world as mysteriously as he came into it?
15:32:59 Piecewise: Nah, he deactivated the cell
15:33:08 Piecewise: he also ate it and wandered away
15:33:26 syv: I don't have a proper AK, I can't test the grip...
15:33:27 Piecewise: If he blew up I would have added a "And then he blew up" on there
15:33:42 syv: But yeah, seems uncomfortable at best.
15:34:35 NJW: ...so you have something that approximates to an AK? >:
15:35:42 syv: I have a PSL, which is functionally a DMR RPK, which is kiiinda an LMG AK.
15:36:04 syv: Mechanically it's an AK but big. Ergonomically it's an SVD.
15:36:20 syv: MURICA
15:38:11 syv: I don't actually have any traditional AR format rifles, so can't really test a grip requiring a long mag. I can almost see it at an expedient way to mimic using a sling for extra rigidity, even though it does make me cringe. And would be horrible for anything that's automatic. And would be inferior to a traditional grip while taking a knee.
15:38:20 syv: ...Yeah it's just dumb.
