00:07:08 NJW has joined #einsteinianroulette
00:08:32 NJW: heyhey
00:10:30 Devastator: Hey
00:10:35 Devastator: how are you, NJW?
00:10:42 Devastator: should poke ER too.
00:24:34 NJW: not bad, not bad. You?
00:25:34 Devastator: Pretty good.
00:27:06 NJW: looks like people are commited to the splash damage route in extinction.
00:29:06 NJW: we'll see if that goes well...
00:30:09 Devastator: Oh?
00:30:33 Devastator: big fan of counter, I see?
00:30:59 Devastator: It works, but only half of all fighters attack Trence in any given round.
00:31:41 Devastator: also, in general, Trence doesn't hit as hard as his breath weapon does.
00:31:56 NJW: makes sense, as it costs mana
00:33:08 Devastator: Also needs a new weapon.
00:33:20 Devastator: that spear's a bit long in the tooth.
00:33:35 Devastator: and this was a trap, after all, so it shouldn't be too easy.
00:40:04 ER has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
00:40:54 NJW: hm... new weapons can be quite pricey. I guess there's a reward for beating Dorren, though.
00:42:07 Devastator: Sadly, he's just going to portal away.
00:42:28 Devastator: because the effing Concordat does not play games with its soldier's lives.
00:44:01 Devastator: but there should be some money around in this guy's house.
00:44:14 Devastator: I mean, nobody's going to make the kids give it back this time.
00:44:23 NJW: Loot and pillage!
00:44:46 Devastator: Yeah. Sadly this guy is greedy and has bad taste, so it's mostly in the treasury, but there's far from nothing here.
00:45:40 Devastator: I'll be rolling dice for the looting.
00:45:46 Devastator: you could also try to pursue if you want.
00:46:01 Devastator: assuming Verity didn't kill the guy already.
00:46:34 NJW: Hm... could he be ransomed?
00:47:22 Devastator: To who?
00:47:40 Devastator: the guy who wants him dead the most already sent you after him.
00:47:58 NJW: Right
00:48:31 Devastator: I mean, maybe he'd have paid you guys, but Sessha was content with "Will no longer have gangs of pirates sent after you."
00:48:44 Devastator: Sadly, that seems to have been swapped with "Really elite adventurers."
00:49:35 Devastator: Lootin's the way to get paid here.
00:49:40 Devastator: and there might even be actual gear, too.
00:49:50 Devastator: +3 and +4 weapons aren't so rare that you couldn't find any.
00:50:33 NJW: that would be nice. Hopefully ones Trence can actually use... was his weapon class ever specified?
00:51:19 Devastator: I haven't fully plotted it out, but basically he can use spears, most polearms, and most swords.
00:51:46 Devastator: And knives
00:52:06 NJW: not to mention fist weapons
00:52:06 Devastator: Willis is - the polearms and strong spears, but + bows.
00:52:14 Devastator: Yeah.
00:52:24 Devastator: anyone can use fist weapons too.
00:52:28 Devastator: some people just use them better.
00:52:32 Devastator: they're pretty weak.
00:53:07 NJW: ooh... were the chaos knuckles a mistake then?
00:53:47 Devastator: Yeah. I never really formaized it.
00:53:56 Devastator: The gift was going to be something weak but useable.
00:54:14 Devastator: god gift, so usable.
00:54:25 Devastator: and the nature of what god that was limited what the weapon choices were.
00:54:38 Devastator: the obvious thing would be a whip, but I didn't think Trence using one of those would be reasonable.
00:56:49 NJW: yeah, whips are for people with more unpleasant natures
00:56:55 NJW: or S/M vibes
00:57:04 NJW: not very Trence
00:57:41 Devastator: Guess what that god was?
00:57:50 Devastator: in the secret dungeon below a bar?
00:58:03 NJW: oh wow
00:58:08 NJW: god of drunkenness?
00:58:18 NJW: I thought it was a chaos deity at the time
00:58:21 Devastator: 'sensation' basically.
00:58:25 Devastator: hence the chicken.
00:59:48 NJW: ah. weird but interesting
01:00:08 Devastator: yeah. I think Irony's idea of getting a pet would have been amusing.
01:00:21 Devastator: it wouldn't have shown up right away, but something would have shown up in a week or so.
01:01:07 NJW: still not sure how the chicken plays into "sensation"... now a roast chicken, that I'd understand
01:01:41 Devastator: Best not to go down that rabbit hole.
01:02:26 Devastator: Anyway, going to be a fun act II.
01:02:31 Devastator: anything you'd like to see changed?
01:03:38 Devastator: also wouldn't mind title suggestions for Act I.
01:05:06 NJW: Hm... title is pretty hard, especially without context.
01:06:22 NJW: Not sure about any changes. Wouldn't mind seeing a bit more of Uncle and Willis' interactions - I feel like someone with a lifelong interest in thaumaturgy might have an interesting take on a mage as destructive as Willis
01:07:13 Devastator: nnn,
01:07:17 Devastator: mmm.
01:07:26 Devastator: There's a couple opportunities for that coming up, actually.
01:07:38 Devastator: might not pass that way, but that's a good idea.
01:09:54 NJW: well, looking forward to it if it does happen
01:10:56 Devastator: depends on which way you go next, really.
01:10:59 Devastator: but there's a few places.
01:11:16 NJW: right
01:11:28 NJW: I'm afraid I'd better be getting to bed
01:11:31 Devastator: Gotta deal with the new problem, armies.
01:11:34 Devastator: See you. ;-p
01:11:40 Devastator: Thanks.
01:12:11 NJW: see ya! And I am liking how extinction is going. Add a god to this, if you feel like it.
01:12:13 NJW: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfnY6vD6RxqYH4v59kogAVPRORJat_9TAQs5PE7IZjnFXL3sw/viewform?usp=pp_url
01:12:17 NJW has quit [Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client]
01:14:54 Devastator: I still have my Roll to Save the World notes about gods..
05:40:15 ER has joined #einsteinianroulette
05:45:44 Devastator: 'lo
05:46:15 ER: hi there
05:47:04 Devastator: :-)
05:52:32 Devastator: Wyrd showed up.
06:28:21 MidJag has joined #einsteinianroulette
06:28:23 MidJag: lo
06:28:31 Devastator: heya
06:28:32 ER: hey mj
06:28:39 MidJag: how're you guys?
06:29:39 Devastator: doing ok.
06:30:28 Devastator: doing good, really.
06:30:39 Devastator: needed that week of shortish shifts.
06:31:02 Devastator: ate some better food.
06:31:10 Elastic_Ridicule has joined #einsteinianroulette
06:31:19 MidJag: Nice
06:34:04 Devastator: how are you?
06:34:35 MidJag: Heh, about as well as any extrovert does in a pandemic~
06:35:09 Devastator: mmm.
06:35:11 ER has quit [Ping timeout: 245 seconds]
06:35:11 Elastic_Ridicule is now known as ER
06:35:11 Devastator: holding it together?
06:35:20 ER: introverts are the next stage in human evolution, cly
06:35:49 MidJag: Yeah, just fighting boredom really. I kinda miss the absolute chaos my life becomes sometimes.
06:36:31 Devastator: the problem is, whenever they come around they fail to reproduce. ;-p
06:36:40 Devastator: Hmm.
06:37:51 Devastator: well, could start that next PM game.
06:37:58 Devastator: gimme a day or two.
06:38:05 MidJag: Which PM game?
06:38:53 Devastator: The one I think I sent you a draft OP about.
06:39:03 MidJag: Oh right.
06:39:21 Devastator: yeah, have to work out the locations and the starting questions and such.
06:39:28 Devastator: got most of it settled in my head now.
06:40:51 Devastator: Wait a second.
06:41:16 Devastator: I just realized that Harvey Birdman employs crow from Revenant. A literate bird that can only say caw.
06:41:34 MidJag: Heh
06:42:37 Devastator: ..yeah.
06:42:45 Devastator: I don't know anything about Harvey Birdman, but..
06:47:12 Devastator: let see.
06:47:20 Devastator: I think next watch we have is RE:Zero 2.
06:47:29 ER: sounds good
06:50:43 Devastator: also avenger is an eagle.
06:50:48 Devastator: so not quite.
06:50:54 Devastator: not sure why an eagle goes caw, bue eh.
06:52:44 Devastator: and is purple.
07:04:30 Devastator: caw conquers all, though.
07:04:33 Devastator: you can't hide from the caw.
07:05:25 Devastator: if it caws it is bird.
07:07:39 Devastator: maybe I'm getting bored too.
07:07:46 Devastator: mmm.
07:07:59 MidJag: heh
07:08:00 Devastator: man, birdgame was weird.
07:08:07 Devastator: I'll have to explain that to NJW if he asks about gods.
07:08:08 MidJag: It was a fun game.
07:08:17 Devastator: that was way too mysterious.
07:09:31 Devastator: dubs was duking it out with death angels or whatever.
07:09:33 Devastator: ER was in a city.
07:09:46 Devastator: you kinda fell in a crack and someone was booting you out.
07:09:58 Devastator: And the other player was already done.
07:10:30 MidJag: Yeah, I was confused with what I was doing, but it was fun
07:12:09 Devastator: I forget what rewards you were getting.
07:14:53 Devastator: looking back, ER was doing magic stuff.
07:16:39 Devastator: yeah, in your case it was because you showed up inside basically a test wargame.
07:17:01 Devastator: when you showed up, you made friends with one of the sides, unlocking 'birds' to be possible purchaseable reinforcements for that side.
07:17:22 Devastator: so you ran into birds that acted just like the weird creatures in there.
07:17:31 Devastator: because they weren't really people.
07:18:03 Devastator: god, that must have been confusing.
07:18:20 Devastator: Also why you got those titles and the second HP count.
07:20:53 MidJag: Ahhhh
07:21:00 MidJag: Yes that was extremlly confusing.
07:21:23 MidJag: I think maybe eventually I could maybe have figured that out but probably not.
07:22:24 Devastator: have to name someone Lucina in another game at some point.
07:22:28 Devastator: after the bird-knight.
07:23:10 Devastator: also, reading through the turns I remember that ER had a bad roll for a teacher.
07:25:19 Devastator: had enough to keep stuff when went home with it, even with no actual spells at this point.
07:25:28 Devastator: so would have been able to learn magic from experimentation.
07:30:52 Devastator: mmm.
07:31:02 Devastator: looks like I started doing prep work for k-com just after stopping that.
07:31:06 Devastator: likje a couple months later.
07:38:28 MidJag: Neat
07:43:53 Devastator: yeah.
08:21:20 Devastator: http://youtu.be/RfO_NhHSLsw
08:21:46 MidJag: Huh, I didn't konw portal 2 had speedrunners
08:22:02 MidJag: I really enjoyed portal 2
08:22:05 Devastator: Heh.
08:22:08 Devastator: That's just awful.
08:22:14 ER: how could there not be?
08:24:06 Devastator: Yeah.. I mean, there are speedrunners of much worse, less popular games.
08:24:11 Devastator: Also portal 2 is good.
08:24:16 Devastator: but I was expecting clickbait, but..
08:24:23 Devastator: that's actually not clickbait.
08:28:26 Devastator: skipping a full minute barrier like that would have been something.
08:30:42 MidJag: Wow. that is stunninglly bad luck
08:32:51 Devastator: yes.
08:33:02 Devastator: sadly, no sandbox experiment to find out how bad the luck can be.
08:33:17 MidJag: Yeah
08:37:55 Devastator: but that looks like ten thousand to one, or more.
08:43:25 MidJag: yeah
08:44:18 Devastator: man.
08:47:53 Devastator: I wonder if s3 of OPM is coming.
08:49:32 MidJag: I hope it is.
08:52:31 Devastator: I'm sure it will be, just wondering what.
08:54:51 MidJag: Welp, I should probably go to bed.
08:55:05 MidJag: And yeah, I'm kinda curious myself
