The below can be used to set a colour for each user's name, overriding the automatically generated colours. Saved colours are displayed in order of priority.

04:28:45 Devastator: Range 63,071 km, chance to hit 121%. Shots 12, damage per hit 19. 12 hits. Target is destroyed with 12 hits.
04:31:35 Devastator: It doesn't seem fun to fight my battleships. ;-p
06:38:00 syv has joined #einsteinianroulette
06:42:28 syv: Dev, "three heads are better than two" is hilarious
07:06:18 Devastator: yeah.
07:06:24 Devastator: but I don't know if I can bring myself to post that.
07:06:45 Devastator: syv
07:07:01 syv: dev
07:07:06 Devastator: heya.
07:07:09 syv: heya.
07:07:11 Devastator: played a bit of Aurora.
07:07:14 Devastator: ran into the NPE.
07:07:31 syv: Non Player Empire?
07:07:42 syv: I thought you had been fighting them for awhile
07:07:43 Devastator: Yeah, the one generated at game start that explands and explores.
07:07:50 Devastator: nah, been fighting the generated enemies.
07:08:59 Devastator: Explored into a chain of jumpgates.
07:09:02 syv: How are they doing
07:09:10 Devastator: they seem to be having issues with the raiders.
07:09:26 Devastator: the first couple of systems from first contact were infested with raider felets.
07:09:48 Devastator: then I went one further and there's a few dead raiders and three 18k ships belowing to the NPE that looks like they blew each other up.
07:10:03 Devastator: also included a raider fleet with one damaged ship in it, slowing it down.
07:10:26 Devastator: anyway, my battleships are designed to blow them up without losses, so that's whjat they've been doing.
07:12:36 Devastator: ahh, fuck it.
07:13:12 syv: ...Weren't the raiders supposed to be endgame strength?
07:13:31 syv: Like, stronger than precursors?
07:13:41 Devastator: I've seen them trade ships with precursors.
07:14:02 Devastator shrugs.
07:14:23 Devastator: It took some effort to be able to stomp them, but I know how to design ships.
07:15:30 syv: I thought it was more a thing about proper tech levels.
07:16:01 Devastator: They're beam only, with good PD railgun capacity.
07:16:22 syv: If you can kill precursors and raiders, with the NPE not being able to do so, what can even challenge you?
07:16:23 Devastator: the way to beat them is to outrange them with big lasers on ships fast enough to close.
07:16:31 syv: Swarm?
07:16:32 Devastator: I don't know what the NPE has.
07:16:43 Devastator: I know they traded ships with raiders, but not how they did it.
07:17:07 Devastator: They're also almost certainly much much bigger than I am.
07:18:24 Devastator: and there are Invaders.
07:19:42 Devastator: also
07:20:11 Devastator: my ships stomp raiders flat, but precursors can kill them.
07:21:05 Devastator: I cleaned a precursor planet for 11 dead ships, including 2 basttleships
07:22:32 ER: um
07:22:36 ER: hello dev
07:22:45 ER: I have nothing to add to aurora discussion
07:22:54 Devastator: kk
07:25:32 syv: Oh, man
07:25:35 syv: Invaders
07:25:49 syv: I had forgotten the proper name, and thought Raiders were Invaders
07:26:12 syv: Invaders are the truly threatening NPC, then? The one that canonically killed the precursors?
07:26:50 Devastator: I've only seen them once in the games I've played.
07:26:55 Devastator: where they were pretty dangerous, yeah.
07:27:21 ER: oh no the Unbidden :p
07:29:21 Devastator: Nah, Raiders are Aether Raiders and are much less dangerous.
07:30:11 Devastator: Invaders are 'Hi, here's our TL 8 75,000 ton battleships with special-to-us tech.'
07:33:40 ER: do they have any sort of interesting theming to them at all
07:33:51 ER: or are they just "ha we haz big ship"
07:34:24 Devastator: well they open giant rifts in space for indeterminate amounts of time before they arrive.
07:45:24 Devastator: bought some candy lego.
07:45:31 Devastator: it's hard.
07:49:43 syv: Candy *lego*?
07:49:51 syv: Lego you can eat?
07:50:00 syv: Like, the block toys?
07:50:31 Devastator: Yes.
07:50:43 Devastator: lego is a trademark, but that's what it is.
07:50:58 Devastator: it's dextrose and a hardening agent.
07:51:21 Devastator: I wish I knew it'd blow 0your mind, I'd have bought you some. ;-p
07:59:32 syv: What is the actual brand name?
07:59:45 Devastator: I don't know, I buy candy in bulk.
07:59:48 syv: I don't think I'd want it myself, that doesn't sound appealling. Just weird.
08:00:20 Devastator: I think it was just called 'Candy Blocks'
