02:40:45 ER: well, how are you doing today,
Devastator
02:41:25 ER: my lamp is borked so I'm sitting in a dark room staring at my bright screen
02:50:48 Devastator: kinda regretting that Freddie never got to eat anyone in OL. I should have given him orders to do that on camera at least once.
02:53:33 Devastator: and the oots geekery thread is trying to figure out what spell Xykon cast in the latest strip.
03:03:39 Devastator: yes, in his black magic aura spell stuff. ;-p
03:03:53 Devastator: Xykon's Memorial Defiling Hand.
03:32:56 syv has joined #einsteinianroulette
03:44:30 Devastator: Where does she keep her arrows?
03:51:55 Devastator: doesn't she get four attacks a round?
03:53:11 Devastator: that's a rough time. Particularly when sneak attacking.
03:54:32 Devastator: "I wish I could cough up an infinite supply of arrorws."
03:59:57 syv: "I wish I had a dragon's firebreath, but instead of fire I breath [arrows]"
04:01:34 Devastator: I doubt dragonbreath would be a good ability. Might be amusing, but probably not that powerful.
04:03:12 ER: wish for all the dragonshouts
04:03:33 Devastator: force-breath would be cool.
04:09:51 syv: I haven't crawled out of bed yet...
04:10:17 ER throws a flask of coffee at syv
04:30:34 ER: and unsounded just keeps getting better~
04:32:25 Devastator: ..I wonder what the holdup is on awful hospital?
04:32:46 ER: he said in the comments at some point
04:42:52 ER: one of them was a redux of the kidney stone thing, I think
04:44:36 Devastator: Son of kidney stone.
04:57:16 syv: Isn't the writer of AH a woman?
04:57:40 ER: not entirely sure what the leech is
05:00:46 syv: Jonathan "Bogleech" Wojcik
05:10:49 ER: so, we gonna watch a thing?
05:14:55 Devastator: mmm, I thought we watched 10, and didn't get to 11.
05:15:20 syv: ...I really just don't feel interested in it right now.
05:22:55 MidJag has joined #einsteinianroulette
05:23:26 ER: will you replace
syv for us
05:23:43 ER: this one doesn't want to watch anime with me right now
05:24:15 MidJag: I'm not a good enough shot to replace
syv.
05:25:19 MidJag: would be better with both arms.
05:25:47 ER: I mean, the style I used you only really need one :p
05:26:26 ER: unless you wanna go "I'm not really left handed"
05:27:51 MidJag: Unfortunatelly I am left handed? and did you fence or something?
05:29:00 ER: there were people doing sabers too, which was kinda wild to watch
05:29:33 MidJag: cool....that question is pretty much the extent of my fencing knwoledge.
05:30:48 ER: cly I should challenge
syv to an airsoft duel and only bring my foil
05:32:36 MidJag: My hobby skill set is sadly largelly non violent. so I guess I would just fix the problems arising from bringing a sword to a gunfight
05:33:35 Devastator: got another image without context.
05:33:59 ER: you can be the healbot, I'll be the rogue, and
syv is the gun wizard
05:35:08 ER: he prepares his spells in the morning by deciding which guns to bring, see
05:39:28 MidJag:
dev is that like some sherlock holmes game made of talking animals?
05:40:46 Devastator: I have no idea what it is, and I've been reading about it for about ten minutes now.
05:40:54 Devastator: That's as good as anything.
05:41:57 Devastator: Phoenix wright, but literally a phoenix.
05:43:00 MidJag: I'm not sure falcon is the best choice of animal for a laywer :P
05:50:29 MidJag: so are the animals photoshopped? The lion makes it hard to tell.
05:51:21 Devastator: I think they were drawn like this.
05:52:37 MidJag: That would make sense. Like I said the lion is weird.
05:53:10 Devastator: I think it's because there's another image of the lion smoking.
05:55:46 syv: (
ER) cly I should challenge
syv to an airsoft duel and only bring my foil
05:55:46 syv: This seems horribly unfair in your favor.
05:57:53 Devastator:
syv, I found the best use for Alida.
05:59:23 MidJag: So how many horsepower does your car have? "1"
06:01:42 ER: best use of alida is to use her as a bed though
06:05:15 Devastator: I've never heard of a horse locomotive before.
06:07:09 MidJag: Man just imagine modern trains being pulled by massive lines of horses on those carts
06:08:33 syv: Alida bed is good thought.
06:08:42 ER: there are worlds lacking in fossil fuels but which have spacial magic where trains are powered by giant complexes in pocket universes of hundreds of horses running on tradmills in a horribly elaborate machine
06:09:24 syv: Big soft, good for hugs, good for sleep.
06:09:45 ER: this is why I must claim the doggo
06:11:25 MidJag: hmm, I should go to bed.
06:11:43 MidJag has left #einsteinianroulette
06:14:28 Devastator: should be a cat sleeping on her.
06:14:37 Devastator: or her sleeping on her. ;-p
06:17:25 Devastator: hey, wait until effigy 3 for that.
06:17:46 Devastator: "Make 11 spare bodies, and have them do A through L.
06:20:46 Devastator: dammit, my internet is basically completely non-functional atm so I can't even read this. But I at least wanted to see what a bird-trial is like.
06:30:15 syv: I wonder if Alida counts as adorably fluffy enough to pay the cost of effigy while she hugs herself.
06:35:24 ER: depends on how much enjoyment is gotted out of that
06:38:33 syv: I wonder if the girl who decided she really wanted to turn into a big fluffy dog would like to hug a giant crazy-fluffy dog.
06:38:57 ER: she WANTED to become a VERTICAL WOLF
06:40:07 ER: hopefully though, if I tell you enough times that I want to hug the dog then by the time I get a chance to it will be established that doing so will heal me
06:49:20 ER has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
06:51:03 Devastator: yeah, she wanted to be a vertical wolf, yes.
06:51:09 Devastator: also, I think effigy is a minor not a cheap.
06:51:18 Devastator: this is a very acceptable second place.
06:52:57 Devastator: If effigy-sleeping on herself is free though, that's certainly worth trying.
06:53:08 Devastator: otherwise I suspect that'd be a witch before she'd wake.
06:53:47 Devastator: also, here's first prosecutor.
06:58:04 Devastator: Yes. Also traditional for
PW games.
06:58:12 Devastator: first prosecutor is always supposed to be someone timid like that.
06:58:31 Devastator: it looks like gameplay wise it might actually be better for the trials, there's more interactivity and choices you can make.
06:58:54 Devastator:
PW isn't dead simple, but it could use a bit more variation other than 'press everything'
07:07:28 syv: "
PW" for "Pheonix Wright" took me a minute.
07:07:58 syv: I've never played any of them.
07:08:57 Devastator: basically you go about dicking with crime scenes and interrogating people for evidence, and then go to trial scenes where you introduce evidence and press witnesses. It's all point-and-click, gameplay wise.
07:10:43 er has joined #einsteinianroulette
07:16:31 Devastator: Hah, next accused is a fox.
07:19:20 Devastator: the first accused committed the murder you end up clearing her of.
07:19:38 Devastator: because you established some doubt in the case.
07:20:31 Devastator: so the lawyer ends up getting horribly drunk all weekend, and in the end goes on because Chocolate Croissants are a thing.
07:21:22 Devastator: and the fox is the prince of spain.
07:21:50 syv: Having the protag lawyer actually be on the wrong side of the case and win, feelinh guilty about it.
07:22:37 Devastator: Yeah. Had the right attitude about it, you don't prove the case, you examine the evidence.
07:22:47 Devastator: it's up to the jury.
07:23:01 Devastator: it's why justice is divided like that.
07:23:42 Devastator: I do hope it isn't a theme in the game, though. Any real defence lawyer has certainly defended guilty clients all the time, but it remains absolutely necessary.
07:23:50 Devastator: still, it'd be nice to defend some innocent people.
07:25:47 syv: Yeah, I like that they let the protag be on the wrong side.
07:26:00 syv: I'm used to the good guy being automatically on the right side.
07:30:23 Devastator: He's still on the right side, really.
07:34:39 syv: The emotionally right side. Not the morally right one.
07:38:44 Devastator: Hmm? It's morally right too. Justice isn't justice if the state doesn't have to prove their cases before conviction.
07:39:48 Devastator: Without that there is no security from the murderers or the state.
07:40:09 Devastator: more the other way around. Morally right, but not emotionally right.
07:40:54 syv: ...Yeah, that's what I meant.
07:41:46 syv: I like that they had him be defending someone not actually innocent, which is emotionally wrong, but morally right.
07:42:19 syv: Normally they automatically put the protag on the emotionally right side, which happens to also be the morally right one.
07:46:26 Devastator: Also, there's a lot of puns in this game.
07:46:33 Devastator: These columns have been designed to look Roman. I think the style is ionic.
07:46:34 Devastator: It's not ionic, Falcon. Iony is when a character says something, but the reader knows it means something completely different.
07:47:01 Devastator: to my immense disappointment, it once used 'rein it in', despite that being the actual correct usage.
07:52:05 Devastator: ooh, here's next prosecutor.
07:54:48 Devastator: The king is also the best possible bird.
08:12:51 Devastator: Mmm, plot twist. The accused is actually a private investigator, taking the fall for someone else.
08:14:27 Devastator: Also, it looks like they gonna pull a show trial.
08:23:51 Devastator: except they botched the show trial by half-assing the perjured witness.
08:25:01 Devastator: also, the person doing the bribing is the defendant.
08:25:42 Devastator: wow, the MC is an idiot.

20:09:34 ER: Death Plane: needs some explaination written, probably some more concrete rules and roll table generators for primordials and stuff
20:10:53 ER: [unnamed roguelike inspired game]: same as above, probably needs more work overall as so far I've written *nothing* and I still don't know how the actual system in play should work
20:11:24 ER: Denature: easy shit that I erroniously feel like I'm about to fuck up if I try
20:12:36 ER: Vijiriwek: kind of a nightmare of unknowns for me, it would be nice to not let it just die, if it weren't for the fact that I've pretty much already done so
20:13:30 ER: Fork: still possible to revive, never wanted it to go but it's been a while since I've seriously thought about it
20:15:05 ER: Ocean (live table edition): don't know where to take it at this point. may warrent inventing more mechanics in order to drive gameplay, missed last session because I didn't do anything to prepare
20:15:34 ER: me: have done nothing about any of these for weeks, want to hide in the dark and never return
20:53:24 ER: here's an esoteric dark souls build. use offhand rapier and hold catalyst in right hand, cast great magic shield so that the rapier's partial parries are better
20:54:09 ER: I think that works? because partial parries take health and stamina away from you according to the weapon's block and stability, which great magic shield improves
20:55:21 ER: and this way, you get to cast spells, do poke, and have a defensive option without any weapon swapping. I guess. Dark Souls really kinda wants you to use a shield
20:55:53 ER: guess if you land a parry you can hit them with a crystal soul spear
