00:13:39 syv has joined #einsteinianroulette
00:18:59 ER: we watching anime now? Should I go get snacks and water?
00:24:34 Devastator: cashews sound good.
00:25:29 Devastator: any bets on how many times Automobile will die?
00:27:27 ER: 24 minutes, so probably one more time
00:27:44 ER: I'd be willing to bet more volentary loops though
00:28:44 ER: these blueberries are disturbingly large
00:28:54 Devastator: I'm guessing for the whole series.
00:29:25 ER: what was it that kuro said? "A number which cannot even be counted?"
00:30:10 ER: first time he didn't die though
00:30:42 Devastator: I assumed he died once to get here.
00:31:12 Devastator: "That's an entirely reasonable, yet inaccurate, conclusion!"
00:31:22 ER: nah, he would have felt getting hit by a bus
00:31:25 syv: Naaah, I think they specifically decided agaunst tgat.
00:31:40 Devastator: so.. how many then?
00:31:44 Devastator: assuming he didn't die to get here?
00:31:50 syv: So this is where those maids come from.
00:32:25 Devastator: Save the pot ramen.
00:32:27 ER: first time he took a mortal wound from knife lady but then used his power intentionally, second time he bled to death
00:33:27 Devastator: well, that might be a quick life.
00:34:04 syv: He is the slowest protagonist I've seen.
00:34:27 Devastator: Some of them are deliberately there to be dumber than the characters.
00:35:29 Devastator: Subtitles call it 'fourth life'
00:35:48 Devastator: "Sir, this is a Wendy's."
00:36:53 syv: And only now he realizes that people die if he doesn't do something.
00:37:24 Devastator: Do we have a name for fruitseller guy?
00:38:06 Devastator: I'm not sure what he's chewing.
00:38:33 syv: I guess this is just demonstrating the fact that no matter how incompetent you are, continually trying will eventually succeed.
00:38:53 Devastator: Homura had a harder goal..
00:39:07 syv: Homura was much more competent.
00:39:08 Devastator: Okay, that's not bad.
00:39:29 Devastator: Homura took a bit too.
00:39:39 Devastator: mind you, she was more competent from day one.
00:39:59 Devastator: Autokid is at like loop -10. ;-p
00:41:19 Devastator: Gotta have some beefcake.
00:41:58 Devastator: so there's a war on.
00:42:23 Devastator: Probably not that intense, though, or else someone called the Sword Saint would probably be busier.
00:42:28 Devastator: unless he's here training people.
00:42:29 syv: He found a guy searching for sidequests.
00:43:07 Devastator: "Save Weird Kid" -> Completed!
00:43:38 syv: I like how casually decent people are.
00:44:02 ER: that's not unsettling at all
00:44:05 Devastator: And then there's this person.
00:44:22 syv: She's casually decent too!
00:44:33 syv: She's just also casually horrible.
00:44:35 Devastator: "I'll murder you. But not today."
00:45:33 Devastator: mmm, don't think she's trying.
00:45:38 Devastator: cleaning up the body would be hard.
00:45:52 syv: Yeah, she was way more impressive when she fought booblady.
00:46:05 Devastator: oop, put some oomph into that swing.
00:46:43 ER: using that hyperspeed might have a cost
00:46:59 Devastator: 3x daily limit. ;-p
00:48:55 Devastator: think that's weather time.
00:49:14 ER: Kuro: How many times have you died and come back for my sake...? Two? Three times...? Or perhaps a number so large that it cannot be counted?
00:50:17 Devastator: well, we can count them.
00:51:09 Devastator: Should be plenty of them.
00:51:27 syv: I'm not sure I've seen a humanfaced one before.
00:51:46 ER: stab him and take the hpone
00:52:02 Devastator: I suspect she likes her reputation.
00:52:29 Devastator: also, flipphone has a longer battery..
00:54:00 Devastator: Mmm, I wonder what the best argument would be.
00:54:54 Devastator: Odd she'd find that unbelievable. Selling stuff back to the owner isn't that unusual. He could even say he's working for her.
00:55:14 syv: How would he know about the price?
00:55:16 Devastator: or Touhou protagonist.
00:55:19 ER: she got here first without subaru. Because he's useless and slows her down
00:55:38 Devastator: Got the name of the other buyer.
00:55:41 Devastator: say they're rivals.
00:55:48 Devastator: and that something worth twenty coins is valuable.
00:55:54 Devastator: something worth hundreds of coins is dangerous.
00:56:10 syv: And that sounds like an incompetent thief trying to get her to not follow.
00:56:13 ER: so yeah, that was one death this episode
00:56:29 Devastator: I'm not sure what the best argument is.
00:56:47 Devastator: well, we might find out.
00:58:29 syv: Doesn't realize she's fighting a mage.
00:58:50 Devastator: Mage is like written all over her.
00:59:01 Devastator: lots of demihumans.
01:00:42 ER: Puck's just naturally good natured, I think
01:00:58 Devastator: ooh, pushing those buttons.
01:03:05 ER: this is an acceptable fight
01:03:08 Devastator: don't talk, shooooot
01:03:48 Devastator: This time without the supercat.
01:05:29 syv: Tower called, had to check something.
01:07:07 ER: this is pretty good fighting
01:09:50 ER: he said "I turn 18 this month" so he's technically a minor :P
01:10:26 Devastator: Well, you successfully cheesed off the torturess.
01:10:34 syv: Always warn before you shoot someone in the back.
01:10:58 Devastator: she's too chivalric.
01:11:17 ER: so he wins by making sure she's the only one in here
01:12:04 syv: Okay, I love this show's fight choreography
01:12:10 Devastator: Here comes a new challenger!
01:12:42 ER: this episode has gone pretty quickly, thanks to all the fighting
01:13:16 Devastator: Yeah, I think this guy might win.
01:13:41 ER: I think we might have to have one more loop
01:13:56 Devastator: think he needs to properly warn Reinhardt?
01:14:14 ER: this is definately false hope
01:14:23 syv: We have waaay more than one more loop.
01:14:26 Devastator: if the old man is still alive..
01:14:39 ER: one more for this situation
01:15:15 syv: Yeah, I could see them succeeding here.
01:15:43 syv: But there will be more loops.
01:16:44 syv: Where have I heard that before?
01:17:03 ER: holy shit the visuals are well made
01:17:22 Devastator: That wasn't even his sword.
01:17:27 Devastator: do people willingly fight that guy?
01:17:38 ER: any sufficently powerful skill is indestinguishable from and explosion.
01:17:52 syv: I mean that was so telegraphed.
01:18:04 syv: Also, she's way too important a character.
01:18:15 Devastator: dunno about that part.
01:18:22 Devastator: It's not hard to introduce more monsters.
01:18:24 syv: Can't waste that much sex on a waifu who dies in E3.
01:19:03 Devastator: well.. no, you said escaped.
01:19:20 syv: Meh, she got away from the strike.
01:20:16 syv: While asking for a reward.
01:20:53 Devastator: Kinda telegraphed that one.
01:21:34 Devastator: is it going to be 4?
01:21:58 Devastator: "I've never seen him before in my life?"
01:22:07 syv: Now we get to see how he sets the return point?
01:22:22 syv: I wanna go back to E1 and see what he did in front of the vendor.
01:22:59 syv: Oh hey, Honda Eric worked on this.
01:24:41 Devastator: well, there's some shit going on.
01:24:49 Devastator: mysterious line of mysteriousness!
01:25:03 syv: Okay, I'mma check the sky now.
01:25:12 ER: make sure the moon's still there
01:25:41 ER: yeah, I expected on more loop there
01:25:59 ER: it seems that everything worked out fine just by putting everybody in the same room
01:26:12 ER: I was expecting him to have to work for it a little more :P
01:26:36 Devastator: might be the warmup event.
01:26:50 syv: Oh, also. This show dislikes permadeath.
01:27:08 syv: Rom survived when he's a very unnecessary character, as did miss sexy guts.
01:27:21 Devastator: yeah, could have had a new monster.
01:27:26 syv: And they went to extra lengths for Rom's survival.
01:27:28 Devastator: but makes sense to avoid permadeath for the protags.
01:27:36 ER: the whole point of having a gimmick like this is so that you can brutally kill people without expending them from the narrative :P
01:27:40 Devastator: Don't want to tempt the MC into resetting partial wins.
01:27:46 Devastator: that can get really silly.
01:28:01 syv: You can just... not have him do that.
01:28:14 Devastator: Yeah, but when death comes around it'd be tempting.
01:28:27 ER: it seems that death is required, and I don't think he's capable of stabbing himself, at least not yet
01:28:45 Devastator: Wouldn't surprise me if it does eventually.
01:29:39 syv: Nothing in particular happens at reset point.
01:29:48 syv: He pokes his face oddly, at most.
01:30:03 syv: E4? I'll have to stop for coulds in ~15
01:30:18 ER: from what I know reset points are random and he doesn't get a notification
01:30:25 Devastator: lets do E4, then I want to get some food ready.
01:30:50 syv: You reading up on spoilers, eggo?
01:31:19 ER: nah, just people in
PW's discord discussing it
01:32:20 ER:
dev's dead! abandon timeline!
01:32:37 syv: Learn to have a higher equip speed.
01:32:58 Devastator: The downsides of the Katia Managan package overwhelm the advantages.
01:33:34 syv: It works out pretty well for her.
01:33:56 ER: calling people NPCs is rude
01:34:11 Devastator: I suspect it helps him that nobody understands what the hell he's saying.
01:34:35 Devastator: another quick life?
01:34:55 syv: Huh, he pronounced it "lowly"
01:36:09 syv: I want him to suicide after he gets laid.
01:36:26 ER: as if that's ever going to happen
01:36:42 Devastator: suicide or getting laid or both?
01:37:02 syv: Well, suicide is inevitable.
01:37:19 syv: Aaaand here's the maid twins.
01:37:51 Devastator: generic anime pose 118?
01:38:09 Devastator: "I'm not even going to pretend to know what you're tlaking about."
01:38:38 Devastator: oh god, the subtitles are knee-deep in honorifics.
01:39:05 syv: Gonna leave in a couole mins to check clouds
01:39:44 Devastator: I like some happiness.
01:40:22 Devastator: subtitles show the translation tripping over honorifics.
01:40:41 Devastator: also, 'First rate fur-master.'
01:42:31 syv: "I can kinda read your mind"
01:44:14 Devastator: is that gem literally in her chest?
01:44:28 syv: I think it's just an animation shortcut.
01:44:45 syv: But it might be this dress.
01:44:54 syv: Didn't look at it since the outfit change.
01:45:02 syv: Do you think we--oh there he is.
01:45:03 Devastator: I'm also having trouble figuring out that neck thing.
01:45:28 ER: if you give me a break, I'll alt-tab
01:45:38 syv: Okay, Puck teads emotions.
01:45:54 Devastator: Those chairs seem pretty plain.
01:46:32 Devastator: I have no idea how to pronounce it, having never said it out loud.
01:46:39 syv: How does the Japanese version pronounce it?
01:46:56 syv: I've always read it as Lolli. Like lollipop.
01:47:08 Devastator: "And I'm totally fabulous."
01:48:47 Devastator: Huh, subs said dead, dubs said 'into hiding.'
01:48:52 Devastator: ..that's not a small difference.
01:50:01 syv: So Felt qualifies as a princess.
01:50:18 Devastator: although they very specifically avoided using that word.
01:50:39 Devastator: I suspect he can more easily stop breathing.
01:51:22 syv: ...God, imagine how much it'd suck to live for fifteen years after this, then get reset back to the vendor.
01:51:45 Devastator: "I DON'T EVEN REMEMBER HOW THIS WENT!"
01:53:10 syv: gonna pause and check at 20:00.
01:54:19 Devastator: Tracksuit and jacket.
01:54:37 Devastator: Also he can do something right?
01:54:55 syv: ...Are they peeling oranges?
01:55:17 syv: Those don't look very potato-y.
01:55:24 Devastator: hence how bad he is.
01:55:26 syv: And why do they all cut *towards* fingers?
01:55:26 ER: I hit some buttons and am now on episode 3
01:55:29 Devastator: but nah, they're just yellowish potatoes.
01:55:42 Devastator: they don't move the knife. Subaru is an idiot.
01:56:04 ER: just keep watching till 20:00
01:58:11 syv: And I checked. Will do so now. :P
01:58:28 Devastator: Emmy doing glowing practice.
01:59:11 ER: trying to type while VLC is focused always leads to disaster
02:00:08 syv: Okay
Dev, I think you're right, gem is just embedded into her skin.
02:00:10 Devastator: might just be not hiding it.
02:00:21 Devastator: yeah, I mean.. wouldn't be that weird, really.
02:01:25 Devastator: Ahh, hello doctor moron. ;-p
02:02:07 ER: he comes from such a hell world that his first wish is for employment
02:02:54 Devastator: although I wouldn't mind that in a real Isekai. A job where you get like a year before shitty performance could have consequences.
02:05:16 syv: Think I'm done for tonight...
02:07:21 ER: that is kinda funny, he gets killed without noticing it for once.
02:08:14 syv: And yet this is the first time it's happened.
02:08:29 syv: He actually noticed that he reset.
02:08:54 ER: this is his first life he starts knowing the rules
02:08:56 Devastator: Plus didnt' go back to the fruit seller.
02:09:03 Devastator: and I think that makes it four deaths.
02:09:04 ER: and is thus able to OPTIMIZE
02:11:11 syv: Thinking about how she told him her true name, *without* warning him not to use it around other people.
02:11:28 syv: There's really no way that could play out well.
02:12:47 Devastator: mabye that is her true name.
02:13:24 syv: Extremely powerful, extremely high ranking, innocent and wants a friend, obvious main girl.
02:13:36 syv: Gave out the name after realizing he wouldn't know what it means.
02:14:13 syv: Definitely didn't need to lie if her actual name was Amelia, and using the witch's name would be exclusively harmful if it weren't true.
02:14:20 syv: Puck also was unhappy with her trusting him.
02:15:09 Devastator: didn't puck say something specific when Emilia gave her name as the witches?
02:15:24 Devastator: it wans't unhappy, something like "That's risky" or "That's strange" or something.
02:15:38 syv: Yeah "she always chooses dumb ones" or something.
02:17:34 syv: Puck goes O.O and then thinks "you have got terrible taste"
02:18:33 syv: Subs are "You have terrible taste"
02:25:03 syv: The high population one which has legal records open to the public?
02:25:58 Devastator: although to be fair, I'd expect a somewhat higher frequency of 'pet the leopard' businesses down in FL.
02:27:31 Devastator: and I can remember the premier of BC getting arrested while on vacation in Hawaii..
02:27:40 syv: "the dog accidentally ran into the plaintiff hard enough to break her leg"
02:27:50 syv: Okay, I want an article on *that*
02:28:16 syv: "had actually seen a dog break someone’s leg at the park a year before"
02:28:30 syv: Dogs regularly break people's legs?
02:29:01 Devastator: ..Yeah, I'd expect so.
02:29:33 Devastator: Lots of dogs, lots of people, lots of dogs that get close to lots of people.
02:29:41 Devastator: and some of them run pretty fast.
02:30:16 syv: I'm guessing some fragile people, as well.
02:30:29 Devastator: Yeah, some fragile people too.
02:30:47 ER: silly people, being fragile
02:38:05 Devastator: Technically, I don't think Campbell finished his 'term in office' either, because he resigned instead of losing an election.
02:38:10 Devastator: although he did win an election.
02:38:33 Devastator: and after he resigned the next premier from his party won the following election.
02:39:27 ER: hmm, so what are our bets as to what killed subaru in his sleep?
02:40:38 Devastator: always a good bet that.
02:41:09 ER: depends on if whatever knifelady uses counts as magic
02:41:41 Devastator: knifelady would count as stabs.
02:42:40 ER: also, weird idea: reverse isekai where some dude shows up who's from a world with more advanced technology than ours, but where there's no such thing as electricity.
02:43:12 Devastator: Now what would be particularly useless..
02:43:14 ER: to mirror someone from our world going to a world with less advanced technology, but with an extra law of physics for mana
02:43:32 Devastator: That's a good one, though.
02:46:29 syv: Either an assassin from clown, or a hostile force.
02:46:41 Devastator: isn't clown mansion owner?
02:46:53 ER: I think if it's killing him, any force can be said to be hostile
02:46:55 syv: Solving clown would be boring, so hostile force.
02:47:19 syv: He'll save the mansion from the enemy, and earn his keep.
02:47:21 Devastator: it might not be that boring. Solving the mansion owner might be pretty hard.
02:47:25 Devastator: but yes, that'd be good.
02:47:45 ER: "become trusted before you're murdered fro being a spy"
02:48:18 Devastator: "Convince the clown that you are being serious."
02:48:27 Devastator: "And if you know stuff you shouldn't know, well, you're a spy."
02:49:30 ER: I mean, there's always the option of just explaining that you're stuck in a timeloop. that's always fun
02:50:29 syv: I expect him to tell that to Honda.
02:50:47 syv: Would make for a nice dramatic "Now I must murder my beloved" moment.
02:50:49 ER: that name makes no sense and I don't accept it
02:51:01 Devastator: that's his actual name..
02:51:16 Devastator: well, there's his first name.
02:51:20 Devastator: I'm happy to go with that.
02:51:48 syv: Witch is so generic thoooough
02:52:37 syv: Calling people by their actual names is annoying if they're longer than one syllable or four letters.
02:53:31 syv: Is are thin and that's annoying, but still.
02:53:41 ER: functionally the same length
02:53:48 syv: It's an entire extra syllable *and* character.
02:53:58 syv: It's also a weird spelling for Amelia.
02:54:24 syv: "Emil" makes me think of a foppish rich idiot, besides.
03:00:27 syv: Also... 4/4 of those are taken in my mind.
03:02:09 Devastator: that's not my fault. ;-p
04:08:11 Piecewise has joined #einsteinianroulette
04:08:26 Piecewise:
sy, at 8pm in human time?
04:09:24 ER: real people don't even live on the west coast
04:10:21 Piecewise: Just google and amazon flesh puppets
04:15:00 Piecewise: Anyways, figured I'd get this IRC thing back up after the most recent computer crash
04:15:04 Piecewise: since I always forget
04:16:31 Piecewise: get past the first two episodes?
04:17:16 Piecewise: whats the consensus?
04:17:38 Piecewise: yeah, thats reasonable
04:18:36 Piecewise: It, like a lot of popular shows, is pretty consistently alright with some good parts and some bad ones.
04:19:11 Piecewise: There is plenty of gory violence
04:21:42 syv: I'm awake right now because I got assigned to work during my normal sleeping hours.
04:22:39 syv: And then I work dayshift next, so it's not even as bad as it could be.
04:30:33 Devastator: and I see skelebones is back.
04:30:37 Devastator: so what's up,
Piecewise?
04:31:44 syv: "Your entry must not include any content that distorts historical facts or demonizes and defiles human nature."
04:32:12 syv: ...A rule given when said "entry" is a screenshot of a video game's in game time.
04:32:35 Piecewise: I broke my ankle, got two root canals, worked on homework and went down a particular limited release rabbit hole
04:32:42 Devastator: sounds like a fun week.
04:32:46 Piecewise: also, might have corona
04:32:57 Piecewise: but thats just normal these days
04:33:05 ER: I'm not allowed to demonize human nature?
04:33:16 Piecewise: Well no, my wife works in a hospital
04:33:33 Piecewise: so its not from random exposure
04:34:30 syv: Even if he gets sick, I'm sure he'll keep updating his games for5
04:34:53 Piecewise: honestly I might update them more because I'll have nothing else to do
04:35:09 Devastator: expect nothing, recieve nothing.
04:35:47 Piecewise: Well, someone DOES have to work with sick people. And generally its someone in a hospital
04:36:04 Devastator: I thought you were resigned to getting it, which is awful.
04:36:16 Devastator: but yes, understandable when working with patients.
04:36:51 Piecewise: Nah, I'm not resigned to anything. Its just more of a possibility for my family than randos out there.
04:37:13 Piecewise: and last night a patient was being very handsy, according to my wife
04:37:38 Piecewise: not like *honk honk* handsy but like, old lady with no sense of personal space
04:37:54 Piecewise: who definitely had covid
04:43:38 Piecewise: My sleep schedule is pretty messed up. I keep getting up super early and going to bed early.
04:45:17 Devastator: in another month we'll have sunset at 3:30 up here.
04:46:52 Devastator: sunrise at 8:30, sunset at 3:30.
04:47:02 Devastator: glorious 7 hour days.
04:50:12 Devastator: I am, however, not far enough north where the sun no longer sets.
04:50:41 Piecewise: Never sets or never rises?
04:50:59 ER: sun just does loops around under the horizon for a few weeks
04:53:41 Devastator: I do know a guy who moved up to Coppermine.
