01:36:20 Devastator: ugh, should do Quest tomorrow.
01:36:45 Devastator: been almost two weeks.
02:03:20 Devastator: So what happened when your PS character "died?"
02:18:43 Devastator: oh, was chattinga bout it with
syv and there were some cosmological differences.
02:18:52 Devastator: If a MG dies, she still turns into a witch.

02:25:20 Devastator_ is now known as Devastator
02:40:04 Devastator: so wondering what happened with your char.
03:03:35 Devastator: ahh, just a near-death thing.
03:03:50 Devastator: it was your totem that got weirded, right?
03:16:08 MJ has joined #einsteinianroulette
03:23:32 Devastator: One of the mafia players started a new game.
03:48:31 Devastator: so you want to play something?
03:54:40 MJ: I would but I need to go to bed.
03:55:25 MJ: But I will be free on Monday.
04:02:17 syv has joined #einsteinianroulette
04:05:17 Devastator: missed Jaggers there.
04:06:39 syv: He's been talking about the monday test
04:06:55 syv: I hope I can get
ER and
MJ to both play Hunt with me at the same time, after.
04:07:07 Devastator: although I do want some Vagante.
04:07:15 syv: 4p Vagante would be nice too, but I've NEVER gotten to play 3p Hunt :<
04:08:06 ER: I was gonna do a monstrous iteration of sophia with the title 'IM'
04:08:27 ER: but purple domain was crowded enough already and I decided to go book mode instead
04:09:07 syv: It *would* be nice to see another Sophia, but I think book is more suitable to Perplexicon MGs anyway
04:12:29 syv: I'm happy the GM took my advice :3
04:12:42 syv: Not sure if I should switch to a crest build now
04:13:54 Devastator: I'm kinda in a duel to the death with Irony.
04:14:01 Devastator: Can't show weakness.
04:14:15 ER: other option would be all inning dex
04:15:02 Devastator: don't see why it wouldn't work.
04:15:35 ER: sadly you wouldn't be able to freeze time with such bad magic stats probably
04:16:32 syv: Ohhh, 6 points total, yeah
04:16:45 syv: It's an RTD so you can overshoot
04:17:06 syv: I'd comment, mobility mentions it can allow you to "strike swiftly"
04:17:19 syv: So it probably is dex, and is rolled for certain attack types.
04:17:58 syv: I'm guessing magic attacks roll on control though. That's prolly what the GM meant by HF being weaker than it seems--physical stats are dumpable for mages.
04:18:16 ER: think that's better than +2/+2 pure physical build?
04:18:43 Devastator: Might be the bit about attacks being scaled to whatever you'rea attacking with.
04:18:46 Devastator: no rolls for damage.
04:19:01 Devastator: so you hit it with a bat, but you don't have Close Combat.
04:21:44 Devastator: doesn't mean you can't use magic to make that count.
04:21:51 syv: Perplexicon magic can potentially entirely negate physicals, but they're still defensive stats. Unless the game is run with miniturns, allowing counterspells, you either need pre-emptive defenses, or need dodge/tanking rolls.
04:22:35 syv: Tanking also worked very very well in *classic* Perplexicon, since turning yourself to steel was a very accessible spell... but who knows how it will work here
04:22:43 Devastator: I don't know, Road Wizard did some damage.
04:22:50 Devastator: only rejecting instakills got him killed. ;-p
04:23:12 syv: Road Wizard had the full wordlist, there is nothing a full wordlist wizard can't kill
04:23:35 ER: ...noting that this isn't pvp
04:23:46 ER: so it's not exactly magic fighting magic
04:23:52 syv: Also we seem to get much more limited words?
04:23:53 Devastator: we also don't have the full wordlist.
04:24:04 Devastator: like one book of the old wordlist, and different ones.
04:24:13 syv: Also Fallacy might totally mess with the system. There might not be any tattoo words.
04:24:20 Devastator: Might be closer to Coven, too.
04:24:44 ER: I advised Fallacy to mix things up more than just coping perplexicon
04:24:54 Devastator: Man, I remember when someone random showed up and asked if we knew about perplexicon.
04:25:12 ER: the mini wave of perplexicon copies which just used the same rules played out less interestingly
04:25:19 Devastator: Someone random showed up on the forum and asked if anyone had ever heard of this game (describes perplexicon)
04:25:32 Devastator: So I linked it and said it was invented here.
04:25:48 Devastator: I forget what happened after that.
04:25:53 syv: And Egan, yes. Perplexicon is best if you don't know what it is, or there are new mechanics to make it confusing
04:26:03 syv: Splitting the wordlist by domain should help
04:26:11 syv: If there's new "pages" that should too
04:26:27 syv: Though new pages are honestly hard to make, I've only ever come up with one
04:26:29 Devastator: we might also get only five, six words each in our library, say.
04:26:45 syv: ...Depending on quality that might be awful.
04:27:01 syv: It's the main reason I'm not doing a +1/+1 build
04:27:04 ER: I'm guessing fewer "irrelevant" words
04:27:20 syv: Having decent physical stats means I don't *need* magic
04:27:35 syv: Yeah, +0 all around with a crest is also tempting
04:27:50 ER: Depending on what we fight, you probably WILL need magic :v
04:27:52 syv: Trade my +1 mob for no will penalty and a magic reroll
04:28:07 syv: Assuming the game is designed well,
ER
04:28:20 ER: especially because we're defending a PLACE, meaning that just tanking doesn't help with the strategic objective
04:28:34 syv: No offense to FOU, I don't know him and don't know how well he runs games
04:28:47 syv: Or if this will survive more than a week. ._.
04:28:58 Devastator: been around a long time.
04:29:04 Devastator: don't know if the game will last, but there's a fair chance.
04:29:09 syv: Also, heh. Tanking rarely helps with any objective in a team.
04:29:23 Devastator: depends on how you tank.
04:29:41 syv: Yeah, being a deliberate meat shield would be a lot more helpful
04:29:58 syv: I don't think anyone has made a serious good barrier jacket char.
04:30:01 ER: heavy with the fire ring gun sits on the payload. bam, objective-oriented tanking ;p
04:30:08 syv: So I wouldn't want to gamble on having a meatshield.
04:30:16 Devastator: Might be of the best value to let you tank the defensive stats.
04:30:41 Devastator: "This game ain't gonna hit me more than three times."
04:30:57 Devastator: risky, but that pays off pretty often.
04:31:11 syv: -1/-1 physicals with +3 on the first three hits versus +0/+0. That does sound like a solid gamble.
04:31:25 syv: ...Though it does become +3-1
04:32:16 syv: I'd do -1 mob/mind, +0 might. Then you do get +3 and have a solid physical option for melee.
04:32:18 ER: I'd still kinda prefer a control or power crest to jacket+dumped physicas
04:32:37 syv: Yeah. Getting a guaranteed good roll is very nice.
04:32:38 Devastator: Jacket might be there more as a second choice.
04:32:41 Devastator: I'm pretty sure we're levelling up.
04:33:08 ER: sounds like new crests are granted from leveling your Domain
04:34:25 syv: ...Yeah, tempted to do +1/+1
04:34:44 syv: Going with +1 heart and control crest would also be an option
04:35:13 syv: With the former I don't want to just do the same thing as the other mage, though they did copy my suggested build
04:35:13 ER: sneaky hobbetses stealing my build D:
04:35:22 syv: And yes, the second is yours kinda
04:35:54 ER: I wonder what fal's criteria for sheet quality are, since the options are kinda limited
04:36:12 Devastator: yeah, don't wanna get bumped.
04:36:12 ER: it's name appearance mechanics
04:36:30 ER: guess we just gotta bribe him somehow to make sure we all get in
04:37:38 syv: I talked to Saki about my char, and naturally she sketched ideas
04:37:55 syv: I wasn't going to post any before getting accepted because it feels like cheating
04:38:02 syv: "Let me join, I know an artist"
04:38:03 Devastator: ..yeah, can see that.
04:39:00 syv: I hope he accepts my char's "uniform" being an actual character design
04:39:30 syv: You know, there's a possibility. We aren't playing specific people.
04:39:48 ER: I'd kinda assume that we're in Anon form and the uniforms are what's actually distinct about us
04:39:53 syv: We're playing magical girl incarnations, but the person *using* the incarnation varies
04:40:57 Devastator: yeah we could be playing the costumes.
04:41:00 syv: So defenders of the place choose to incarnate "Skylord", and are magically clad in skylord's garments, while being possessed by her.
04:41:28 syv: That would be a neat idea. I hope it wouldn't invalidate my char. :<
04:41:46 Devastator: it's aight, you just pick the first body.
04:42:02 ER: hair color is part of the outfit
04:42:21 Devastator: don't see why it wouldn't be.
04:42:26 Devastator: it is about magical girls, after all.
04:42:31 syv: Scarred body from undertaking a past action
04:42:35 ER: there's also something about "legacy" if you die
04:43:01 syv: It could be adapted easily, buuuut could also be bumped because "You didn't really follow the rules, other people did"
04:46:03 syv: ...Is it wrong for me to wish the game were more like PS? I think I want to play my own game...
04:46:57 Devastator: although I'm totally interested in more PS. ;-p
04:47:03 Devastator: but yeah, we all want to play our own games, really.
04:47:43 ER: please make a Crisis video game and let me play it :c
04:48:50 syv: Nyafor video game is far far more likely
04:49:56 syv: Wouldn't even be entirely unreasonable to do, considering this BR game is half program already...
04:50:14 Devastator: Extinction the RPGmaker game.
04:50:39 syv: It is much better in its current form
04:51:27 ER: I feel like it would be a bit easier to make crisis in rpgmaker than nyafor in it :p
04:51:37 ER: crisis is closer to what's expected there
04:51:41 syv: No, nyafor would be a text game
04:52:33 syv: You shoot at the wolfgirl! ... You miss! ... The wolfgirl shoots at you! ... You are shot in the eye and die instantly!
04:53:09 Devastator: Should use DF terms.
04:53:16 Devastator: "It spins away in a bloody arc!"
04:53:31 syv: Sure, if I do it and remember
04:57:41 syv: Windows set Spotify as a startup app on my computer, for some reason. I've never used spotify and have zero interest.
04:58:25 Devastator: lemme know if it mysteriously returns.
04:58:41 syv: If it does I'll be extremely upsey
04:58:47 syv: Don't fuck with my startup
04:59:36 Devastator: Yeah, but I can fix crap like that.
