00:21:00 er: Got a pair of offbrand controllers in the mail.
00:29:23 Devastator: Another happy customer.
00:30:22 Devastator: Also read
RC's turn in Cabal.
00:30:26 Devastator: Yeah, good to confirm that.
00:41:59 Devastator: well, can probably alter that plan to do a more complete extraction.
00:42:04 Devastator: and handle it a bit better.
00:42:49 Devastator: Magebreakers don't want to confront the old mage directly. Might have to do that on my own, then.
00:43:03 Devastator: Get the people out, and then go for a proper assassination.
00:51:23 Devastator: Probably going to propose a few modifications.
00:51:44 Devastator: I like getting the people out first.
00:52:17 Devastator: I'm.. okay with preparing to flood the cavern, although concerned it won't actually kill the mage. Saeko would survive that easily enough.
02:07:00 ER has joined #einsteinianroulette
02:35:28 Devastator: Posted some big-ass orders.
02:35:39 Devastator: Saeko might have elf ears again. ;-p
02:38:23 Devastator: Don't think they were that huge previously.
02:38:36 Devastator: of course, that was a non-crit on a d6 spell, and this time trying a d8.
02:39:13 Devastator: so likely a failure, or a crit-success where they just look normal, or, yes, big-ass elf-ears.
02:40:16 Devastator: You had a perfectly good opportunity to ask for that, you know.
02:40:29 ER is not using its brain currently
02:40:47 Devastator: You had a perfectly good opportunity to ask for that, you know.
02:42:22 Devastator: "What do you want for pay? I can make things or people bigger, faster, or stronger, and heal serious wounds. Can also create some steel." Saeko nods at Zavi's rather limited protection.
02:43:18 ER: "you can pay me by making your ass bigger"
02:44:00 Devastator: That'd be weird, but it'd be worth bringing another mage along.
02:44:11 Devastator: can't really retcon that, though, I ran out of mana in the ensuing combat.
02:44:16 ER: probably not something I'd ever actually ask of you :P
02:44:43 Devastator: Also, you do know she's underage, right?
02:45:08 ER: I'm not paying much attention in that one
02:45:21 ER: also, not using my brain currently
02:45:37 Devastator: Just the hindbrain.
02:45:45 ER: you said big ass and I decided that would be what the conversation would be about.
02:46:19 Devastator: That'd be easy enough to retcon, too. I could just count real-time since the game started and add two years.
02:46:51 Devastator: Also amused that you did in fact have an opportunity to acquire large butt.
02:47:38 ER: sure that zavi has that already, really
02:47:49 Devastator: As the porn guys say, it can always be bigger.
02:48:44 ER: but going by the rules for flesh-scrolls, thiccness is canonically based on strength
02:48:56 Devastator: Isn't it Endurance?
02:49:01 ER: which I've got d10+1 of now
02:49:17 ER: nah, scroll space is based on strength
02:49:34 Devastator: You're right, strength.
02:49:41 Devastator: Just put it that way.
02:50:37 ER: might make more sense if it were end, but whatever
02:51:08 ER:
Piecewise_, how long has it been in-universe since the start of Cabal?
02:51:40 Piecewise_: Hmmmmm probably 5 months or so
02:52:29 Devastator: Well, I was thinking she'd be in the 15-16 range, standard JRPG protagonist sorta thing.
03:27:06 Devastator: Although with grow, she's probably as old or young as she wishes, basically.
03:27:11 Devastator: I think you can change ages with it.
03:27:20 Devastator: ..just really don't want to get known for being able to do that.
03:27:30 Devastator: never get a moment alone again.
03:28:02 ER: just get known for transforming people who ask about it into zygotes
03:31:15 Devastator: Might take too much mana, that. ;-p
03:31:50 Devastator:
Piecewise, what's the challenge die to kill someone that way?
03:33:01 ER: that would be a fun death for
PW to describe
03:35:28 ER: challenge die to kill someone by deaging them into a zygote
03:35:41 Piecewise_: increases depending on how old they are
03:36:02 ER: hmm, that's probably bad for your uses, then
03:36:52 Devastator: Well, the obvious solution would be to age them into dust.
03:37:17 ER: yeah but less ironic, and thus intimidating
03:37:27 Devastator: Strengthen also makes a lot of stuff easier.
03:38:59 Devastator: I suppose it could also be made easier, because it would only have to be a temporary spell.
03:39:12 ER: alternative: get super rich by taking payment for making people young and beutiful.
03:39:35 Devastator: No idea how much money I could get from that, but probably a ton.
03:39:53 Devastator: I'd rather save that for when I really, really need money.
03:39:53 ER: only costs everything that you own, minimum 75 gold.
03:40:48 ER: write me into your will, I'll help you fake your death, you start over as a 16 year old :P
03:41:58 Devastator: It's a joke, but like big butts, one that could actually be done.
03:42:35 Devastator: save the buttification for when I up saeko's will to d12, anyway. ;-p
03:44:12 Devastator: Strengthen is a hell of a word.
03:44:32 ER: isn't upping shit to d12 like a d100 challenge die
03:44:45 Devastator: I think
PW priced that at 3 d8 spells, which seems a good bit low.
03:44:49 Devastator: but it should be possible.
03:45:03 Devastator: Just cut it into chunks and use Grow Strengthen to make it happen over time.
03:45:16 ER: heh, if it's that easy I should get you to up my str to max
03:45:57 Devastator: You had a perfectly good opportunity to ask for that, you know.
03:46:22 ER: I thought going that high was practically impossible
03:46:30 ER: and I didn't end up working for you anyways
03:46:44 Devastator: I thought it was going to be about 3 d 20.
03:47:13 Devastator: using grow, could probably cut it into 3d12 chunks and a month.
03:47:38 Devastator: Temporary, so it lasts like a week, is probably about 1d12.
03:48:50 Devastator: strength is as a physical stat, a bit easier.
03:48:56 Devastator: so maybe bump those down to d10s.
03:51:11 Devastator: Speed is much easier because I have that actual word.
03:51:27 ER: you able to put physical stats past d12?
03:51:46 ER: d20 strength as scroll would be silly :P
03:55:16 Devastator: Benedict only has d12 strength.
03:55:20 Devastator: but I don't see it as being impossible.
03:55:47 Devastator: Should ask for me to cast a permanent "Grow Strengthen" if you want that, then. ;-p
03:56:03 Devastator: That might end up increasing your strength indefinately, and it'll hit d20 eventually.
03:56:11 ER: wonder if I'm better off using my mana to go for a +3 or something or using you to hit d20
03:57:04 Devastator: or, as
PW would say, why not both?
03:57:23 ER: mostly wondering what's more mana efficient.
03:57:58 ER: d12 to d20 is equivalent to 4 levelups
03:58:00 Devastator: well, it'd probably take less than 50 mana to give you a d12.
03:58:18 Devastator: and it might fail a few times, and end up a lot more.
03:58:39 ER: so the d20 project would have to take a LOT of mana to not be worth it
03:58:57 Devastator: unless
PW rules it a d100 for stats I don't have the specific words for.
03:59:10 Devastator: In truth, the best way would pobably be a bunch of strength buff spells and then a size increase.
03:59:53 Devastator: diminishing returns and all that.
04:02:06 ER: so bringing my d12+1 up to d12+5 would cost a total of 240 mana
04:02:17 Devastator: Probably quite a bit less than that.
04:02:34 ER: d20+1 is equivalent to that, but with lower lows and higher highs
04:03:13 ER: probably a bit worse overall, but of course once I have a d20 I can go for more levels
04:03:30 Devastator: You had a perfectly good opportunity to ask for that, you know.
04:04:41 ER: not like I had that much mana
04:04:54 Devastator: still, could have made part work.
04:05:02 Devastator: or buffed your weapon.
04:05:19 Devastator: "d20 strength for your right arm."
04:07:59 Devastator: hell, could have given you claws.
04:09:40 ER: stick eyes on my arm too, why don't ya
04:10:00 Devastator: Sure, can probably do that with grow.
04:10:05 Devastator: likely hard, but why not?
04:10:35 Devastator: Besides what sort of half-naked stabby warrior doesn't have claws? ;-p
04:11:05 ER: eh, I'm a breaker, I'm going to be armored
04:14:10 Devastator: Not sure how far I can push my armour.
04:15:10 Devastator: d10 is certainly reachable, but d12 will likely take some work.
04:46:56 ER: "Just saying, you shouldn't not never trust nothing *completely*."
05:08:25 Piecewise_: I'm going to bed. See yous later
05:10:26 Devastator: thanks for stopping by.

05:49:13 syv: Had a deathless run on BOTR, right up until the penultimate section, which I'm worst at. Had a time ~300s, which is better than the one other time I've gotten there deathless. Then I flubbed it and ended up dying five times before finishing, because that one spot is just so difficult.
05:49:57 syv: Still ended up beating my prior record (~600s/11d, this time I got 487s/5d), but I'm still disappointed, and that was very stressful
05:52:17 syv: That particular segment is just really really bad, because it's three very tight turns, all continuing the same trajectory, so even minor errors compound and need to be corrected for, with little frame of reference. It's absurd.
05:52:55 syv: AND they *must* be done at a high velocity. There's no llama strat, like with the pipes, which are the other ridiculously difficult obstacle.
05:53:52 syv: Have you tried a controller yet?
05:54:29 ER: yeah I got these mysterious PS3 controllers in the mail from an anonamous internet person~
05:55:23 syv: Maybe one of them has a ghost in it, it'll play vs matches against ypu if you plug both controllers in.
05:57:07 syv: ...Wait no, Win + arrow key.
05:58:39 ER: "If the product has some problems when you get,hope you could contact us before you leave a bad review, then we will give a good solution asap." printed on a nice laminated card in the box with a pretty design.
06:01:17 syv: It does make sense. It's quite impressive just how many 1-star reviews can come from people saying "it didn't instantly work, must be broken, very angry" or similar.
06:04:15 ER: the driver installer calls this a "fake ps3 controller"
06:05:45 Devastator: Is it a cruddy fake or a good fake?
06:06:45 ER: looks like it does not have pressure sensative triggers
06:07:14 ER: they're both just on/off buttons
06:08:21 syv: That is rather disappointing.
06:10:46 ER: huh, the stick is held a bit to the top-left, but only when it's using bluetooth
06:11:01 ER: that's the same problem as my normal controller has!
06:13:02 syv: Huh. Well, you have two, so wireless isn't really a problem I guess?
06:13:36 syv: Though I suppose that's a choice between binary triggers and offcenter left stick.
06:13:58 syv: ...I'm curious if both controls screw up in the same ways.
06:14:28 ER: why would having two make me not care about wireless?
06:15:14 syv: One charges while the other's in use. Battery runs low, swap the controller.
06:16:58 ER: my genuine PS3 controller shows up when plugged in, but doesn't register any inputs
06:18:30 ER: okay, now it works! still up-left stick, when plugged in!
06:19:34 syv: Did buying you new controllers fix your old one???
06:20:17 ER: buying new controllers may have fucked the new controllers, though!~
06:20:55 ER: do I have two SEPERATE up-left problems?
06:21:11 ER: the new controller was fine at first, now it's also up-left
06:21:42 ER: maybe this was a software problem the whole time?
06:22:05 ER: there's no updates or anything for my drivers...
06:26:29 ER: so my old controller seems noisy
06:26:45 ER: like the crosshair jumps around when held still
06:29:02 syv: Sounds like all three controllers are good enough to kill Isshin with!
06:29:38 ER: hold on, I haven't even touched number 3 yet~
06:29:47 syv: That name should really be pronounce "is shin", not "Ish shin".
06:30:03 syv: It sounds like if you touch #3, it'll be infected.
06:30:55 syv: He's not a sun either, tho
06:36:16 syv: Hmm. Yeah, fair cop, I concede. Issun it is.
06:39:00 ER: #3 seems to have come with its own curse, free of charge
06:39:34 ER: plug it in, windows doesn't realize anything's plugged in
06:39:51 ER: press the big button, no lights or anything come on
06:40:01 syv: Aaand that's why I bought two.
06:44:57 ER: damn, so I got one controller and one paperweight
06:48:58 syv: Correction: I bought you one 60% off controller, and one paperweight.
06:50:45 ER: also thanks to Fortress of Lies for helping me not lose my mind there :V
06:51:32 ER: when I click the wrong thing to install PS3 drivers into, my mouse stops working and I have to use the trackpad to click uninstall :P
06:52:48 syv: It occurs to me, I have your address now. I could sign you up for bobcatinabox.
06:53:15 syv: Do you need more useless shit?
06:56:49 ER: I'm up for some GAME PLAYING
07:04:46 Devastator: dee doo dee doo dun..
07:05:23 syv: I'm also good with playing a co-op game, if you want. Or a PvP game. Or watching a show.
07:07:07 ER: okay, NOW everything's working at once!
07:07:20 syv: A fragile state of affairs, to be sure.
07:07:27 ER: except OBS, which I haven't opened yet, which also likes to break
07:11:44 ER: OBS has an entirely new interface now, lovely
07:13:18 ER: undefeated: owl, isshin, sculptor
07:13:48 syv: Sculptor < Owl < Isshin is the order of difficulty.
07:14:48 syv: Hmm. This is way too high quality for me to stream.
07:15:40 syv: Cellular, actually. Recently got onto an unlimited plan, and it has a way higher datarate most of the time.
07:15:52 syv: Though both are still shit by modern standards.
07:16:49 ER: okay, back up at lower reolution
07:22:27 ER: hmm, chrome being super slow
07:22:37 syv: Hmm, Cultist Sim is part of Twitch Prime. Guess I have that, now.

07:37:30 ER: welp, guess I have to go poke sculptor, huh
07:40:57 syv: Sprint at his right side, dodge under the close swipe, otherwise he'll mostly just miss.
07:41:01 ER: first time I've played this game in months, first time I fight this in particular
07:41:17 syv: His only perilous requires a jump, just don't queue attacks and it's easy to avoid.
07:41:35 syv: Huh, you did pretty good for your first time.
07:42:38 syv: Mortal draw is the only particularly useful CA here, and you can generally only get a swipe in after a poisebreak. Otherwise, it just gets you hit.
07:43:44 syv: That was a badass midair parry.
07:45:40 syv: Yeah, the stompy kick in his 3-hit combo is easiest to just deflect. It does no fire damage, so no chip damage. After deflecting, *immediately* dodge left, because he swipes from your right.
07:45:48 syv: Also, unlock. Lockon is death here.
07:47:20 syv: Ministry dousing powder is *great* here.
07:49:41 syv: His fireball shotgun is kinda bullshit.
07:52:54 syv: Niiice mortal draw, rhere.
07:58:21 ER: more like demon of fuck you
07:58:30 syv: Two quick swipes means kick, then another swipe. You've got everything except for that one pretty well down.
07:59:05 syv: The kick has mediocre tracking, but the swipes don't really.
08:05:00 syv: Pellets heal 50% precisely, less tha gourds, and are delayed, making them much worse than gourds for midcombat healing. But if you use them after the tanto, and deaths, they effectively give you +3 gourd uses. Also the things are super cheap and common.
08:08:14 syv: Jeez, you use mortal draw way better than me.
08:11:31 ER: he's just fucking invincible during that
08:12:18 syv: Yeah. At least he doesn't get random iframes after his second deathblow.
08:13:10 ER: I just said "god damnit" three times in a row
08:13:29 syv: Meanwhule, I was just laughing/
08:22:21 syv: Hahaha, that was a badass way to open the third round!
08:22:53 syv: Niiice, avoided that first try.
08:23:02 syv: And then you still get hit by the combo.
08:23:26 syv: That was a really good run.
08:23:49 syv: Remember to use rice, snow, and blossoms if you get close enough to a win.
08:24:02 ER: just had to dodge that jump attack at the end and then play perfectly and I would have had him :P
08:24:06 syv: Honestly think you might've won it there if you used all consumables.
08:26:01 syv: Fancy rice extruded from the flesh of a magical girl.
08:26:17 syv: Yeah, and they're cheap to buy more if you somehow run out.
08:26:20 ER: still don't feel like using these for anything but an at least moderately good run
08:27:06 syv: I think they become infinite after Yao?
08:27:34 syv: Divine confetti do, and those can help out with Demon too.
08:28:03 ER: nope, they're not infinite with the fish
08:28:51 syv: Huh. Oh well. There's still just a ton of the things spread around.
08:31:56 syv: Demon has a ton of poise, it just regens slowly, if at all. So staggers are never reliable.
08:32:10 syv: Though you've been doing great with EMD.
08:32:13 ER: guess the second hit needs to be a counter hit to poise break him
08:32:44 ER: nah, if I play it right I can get a stagger reliably at the start of the fight with EMD
08:33:33 syv: Ahh. Forgot IRC isn't delayed, thought you'd been talking about the midfight draw last round.
08:40:53 ER: okay, how the fuck do I handle the jump in the air
08:42:21 syv: Unlock, sprint backwards, jump, grapple.
08:43:03 syv: Alternatively, fire umbrella.
08:43:10 syv: Which also works for fireball shotgun.
08:48:37 syv: Genichiro's Jap voice is so weak.
08:53:08 syv: Isshin's Jap voice also sounds weak.
08:58:30 ER: also I may have forgotten my muscle memory for perilouses
08:59:42 syv: The perilouses in this fight are difficult, and are more based on prediction than reaction.
09:00:24 syv: Genichiro is a particular jackass, since he has that one attack which leads into either type, and his tell is difficult to see with the tall grass. Isshin, at least, is largely predictable.
09:01:24 syv: Also, protip: Use double ichimonji to stagger Isshin out of the Iaito attacks. They're bullshit.
09:14:22 ER: twice how I've hit him in the face with an ichi while he's sheathing his blade and neither time has he been staggered by it :P
09:15:12 Devastator: need to stab him in the foot.
09:19:03 syv: Yeah, his head really doesn't seem to be very useful to him.
09:19:40 syv: My internet's just too dead to watch at this point, it's mostly just paused with snippets of N:A music playing, interspersed with sparking sounds.
09:40:16 ER: hmm, so ichi to counter his dragon flash?
09:43:21 ER: got very, very close to getting his first life
09:43:27 syv: He does multiple versions, first stage vertical you can also dodge behind him, but the wide area and later stage verticals... just ichi. Or mortal draw if you can spare the emblems--I prefer to use them on prosthetics.
09:44:32 syv: Ashina cross is better to counter by dodging forward and to his left (your right); he'll try and hit you with a short quickdraw, miss, then go into a perilous sweep reliably. You can headbop or air ichi as you please, both do a lot of posture damage and ichi does a good bit of vit too.
10:10:27 ER: oh, he gets a naginata and an automatic rifle
10:50:46 ER: took his first life, no deaths or heals
11:38:54 ER: it's fun to beat up genichiro

14:52:09 er: Do you know how I'm supposed to beat any of these bosses in Sekiro?
14:53:46 er: I've been bashing at isshin for a bit.
14:54:27 er: Got him to his spear phase a few times.
14:55:09 Piecewise_: Ok first you know that there's a sound and visual cue for when enemies are about to break out of their guard string and hit back, right?
14:55:50 er: How could I have gotten this far without knowing that man. ;P
14:56:18 Piecewise_: I didn't realize it till like...over halfway through the game, I just did things on instinct.
14:56:34 Piecewise_: Anyways, what parts give you trouble?
14:57:35 er: Mostly just... spear phase. Haven't gotten used to it yet.
14:57:47 Piecewise_: Hmm, let me think...
14:58:03 er: Genichiro is a fun appetizer at this point. :D
14:58:20 Piecewise_: Well, like with all bosses you wanna keep pressure on, so the shuriken rush is good to close distance, since he keeps backing up.
14:58:52 Piecewise_: He has a three shot combo followed almost always by a big stab that can one hit you, so keep an eye out for that. Good posture damage if you counter it
14:59:20 er:
Syv told me to use ichi to knock him out of the big horizontal slash, but I haven't been fast enough yet to pull that off.
14:59:38 er: So it just hits me uh, every time.
14:59:42 Piecewise_: He has that quick sword draw that hits everything around him, but you can jump on him from that
15:01:18 Piecewise_: Really the big thing to do is always keep on him. The more you can keep on him, the better. His first phase should become pretty easy, and his third phase isn't hard if you know how to do lightning reversals. His second phase is the difficult one
15:02:20 Piecewise_: He does big hits but he uses his range and speed to make retaliation hard
15:02:24 er: Keep on the guy constantly swinging around a bigass spear, yup.
15:03:23 er: I think I'll get it, just need someone to complain to. ;p
15:03:35 Piecewise_: It is quite a hard boss
15:03:57 er: Also got real close to beating Demon of Hatred.
15:04:19 Piecewise_: Sword saint and Demon of hatred are both hard, but for entirely different reasons
15:04:19 er: Dad owl still confuzzles me though.
15:04:48 Piecewise_: Hatred has very few attacks but he does so much damage and if you ever get out of sync with him, you're screwed
15:05:44 Piecewise_: Owl Father...has a lot of attacks that can be exploited but are dangerous
15:05:55 er: Do you know that you can run up to Demon at the start and reliably stagger him with mortal draw?
15:06:18 Piecewise_: I did not. I actually rarely used mortal draw
15:06:55 Piecewise_: You can use it without emblems, I know that. The range is just lower
15:06:59 er: Slow and does ALOTTA DAMAGE
15:07:31 er: So I like to find spots where I can pull it out
15:08:48 er: Good against big bois with big hitboxes like ape
15:10:23 er: Was vital to get ape 2.0 because the minion giant fucking ape has less HP. The big chunks that MD does gets it out of the way with relatively little pain.
15:11:08 Piecewise_: Need to get the flex seal prosthetic
15:11:42 Piecewise_: To stop the ALOTTA DAMAGE
15:11:56 Piecewise_: Do you have the whistle to stun DoH?
15:17:21 Piecewise_: last day of shadowing
15:17:34 Piecewise_: good luck with Isshin.
15:20:48 ER has joined #einsteinianroulette
15:21:19 Piecewise_: The finger whistle made with the ring, the malcontent, stuns demon of hatred
15:21:31 Piecewise_: only works 3 times per battle but helpful
15:21:57 ER: literally just the music box again~
15:30:42 ER has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
15:32:41 ER has joined #einsteinianroulette
16:46:52 ER: steam literally tabbed out of my game to a tiny window to inform me that it can't reach the friends network
17:15:04 ER has quit [Read error: Connection reset by peer]
18:11:31 Piecewise_: The "
ER has Quit" after that phrase is very apt
18:16:27 Devastator: ..and some people wonder why steam annoys me.. it's not a good service, it's just the one we happened to get.
18:37:06 Piecewise_: I would argue its not a BAD service. its better than a lot of the other ones like origin, but thats all perspective.
18:37:19 Piecewise_: but definitely has big problems
18:37:44 Piecewise_: GOG is probably the overall best but...well...they also don't have anywhere near the market share
19:51:59 MidJag has joined #einsteinianroulette
19:52:55 MidJag: They apathy woman seems nice.
19:57:27 Devastator: "you shouldn't not never trust nothing completely."
19:58:45 Devastator: Something also very wrong with the dog.
19:58:50 Devastator: dog prolly important.
19:59:09 MidJag: Yeah, it seems to have the opposite problem of the kids
19:59:31 MidJag: Which I guess makes sense since it's the thing Felgood is supposed to treat.
20:03:39 Devastator: Probably the only thing that can be used to seperate the two.
20:03:45 Devastator: because we have baby.
20:03:47 Devastator: but we don't have dog.
20:03:52 Devastator: and you need one of each to show difference.
20:04:25 MidJag: You mean we have a !@$dog@!@# ~
20:04:46 Devastator: We should mention that to apathy girl.
20:04:57 Devastator: she might be ok with new normal for being a flesh pillar.
20:05:06 Devastator: but maybe not with extra red thing.
20:06:34 MidJag: Hmm, all of the comments seem to think she's going to betray us.
20:08:01 Devastator: Doesn't seem likely.
20:08:12 Devastator: I think she's just mostly victimized.
20:08:24 MidJag: She would fail to aid us, but I don't think she would activally betray us.
20:08:46 Devastator: It's really up to us..
20:08:54 Devastator: means we're not going to meet a huge number of effective people.
20:09:19 Devastator: Also, might have to shrink catbird a bit.
20:09:21 MidJag: Finding a micrbiota lab sounds awesoem though
20:09:50 Devastator: Sounds interesting, but ugh.
20:10:33 MidJag: I wonder how Willis will interact with it.
20:10:38 Devastator: We already had a microbiota interlude.
20:10:49 Devastator: I mean, it'd be good stuff to learn, but..
20:11:10 Devastator: Also, reading the Mook turn.
20:11:18 Devastator: I think I might need to shoot someone.
20:11:19 MidJag: I dunno, I really like microbiota just in general so I'm cool with a breif intermission while we upgrade and such.
20:11:37 Devastator: I also don't like upgrading when we don't know what's going on.
20:11:57 Devastator: "GREETINGS EVERYONE THIS IS YOUR CAPTAIN SPEAKING. LET ME JUST GET A QUICK DRINK OF BOURBON...ALRIGHT SO WE ARE CURRENTLY CRUISING IN A SORT OF CIRCULAR MANNER THROUGH WHAT I THINK IS SOME SORT OF BLACK AND WHITE NIGHTMARE DIMENSION. HOLD ON."
20:13:30 MidJag: Are you in the cockpit?
20:14:15 Devastator: in the middle of the vehicle.
20:14:30 Devastator:
Piecewise_ do I need to win a strength check or just a melee check to shiv Oz?
20:15:00 MidJag: Shiving may be in order.
20:15:31 MidJag: So are you guys in like hyperspace or something?
20:15:43 Devastator: THE STATIC DIMENSION
20:16:53 MidJag: You appear to be anything but that right now~
20:18:33 MidJag: Also, in AH how long do you think it will take before either the moldy bread becomes some antibiotic themed staff or some weird weapon?
20:21:04 Devastator: I think it's not bread with mold on it.
20:21:08 Devastator: I think it's moldy bread.
20:21:43 Devastator: Could be a staff member, but don't we usually send those off for reintigration?
20:22:39 MidJag: I fail to see how moldy bread is different fomr bread with mold on it.
20:23:48 Devastator: One is an adjective.
20:24:01 Devastator: moldy bread is bread that is described as being moldy.
20:24:16 Devastator: bread with mold on it is a colony of mold that is inhabiting a piece of bread.
20:24:32 MidJag: But if it's being described as moldy then it has mold on it.
20:25:14 Devastator: The bread may be moldy like an orange is orange-coloured.
20:26:00 MidJag: You mean the mold is an intrinsic part of it's breadiness?
20:26:31 Devastator: Remember, this is a place about perceptions.
20:26:41 Devastator: it isn't actually bread and mold.
20:26:48 Devastator: Ferp is seeing it as bread with mold.
20:27:55 MidJag: so in that case it's an antiboitic factory which we are perciving as moldy bread?
20:28:04 Devastator: That might be the case.
20:29:17 MidJag: I dunno, I honestlly think it is, just because not only is moldy objects the original way of making penicilin, it's also the modern way as well.
20:38:51 Devastator: Also, might have to shrink catbird a little.
20:39:59 Devastator: Yeah, mineshafts be tight.
20:40:04 Devastator: or maybe not, if lucky.
20:58:01 Piecewise_:
Devastator , you can just melee
21:16:42 MidJag has quit [Remote host closed the connection]
23:07:54 ER has joined #einsteinianroulette
23:16:34 ER: I support any plan that involves shanking oz
23:28:19 ER:
Piecewise_ you said that the symbiote gives me an extra action with d4 stats, right?
23:28:51 ER: Does that mean that I just have to give it control of my body for a certain action?
23:29:05 Piecewise_: depends, it can manifest tentacles
23:29:15 Piecewise_: so you can basically do one thing while it does another
23:29:42 ER: I'm betting that it likes murder?
23:32:52 Devastator: well, go support me in shanking oz then.
23:32:58 Devastator: I think this situation deserves some shankitude.
23:33:03 Piecewise_: Its d4 at murder so its not great
23:35:16 Devastator: does that mean
ER is going to have to handle two level-ups a mission? ;-p
23:36:22 ER: may as well let the demon help with murder, as we both suck at stabbing currently.
23:36:40 ER: Hopefully if I let it kill things, it'll grow.
23:38:02 Devastator notes down ER to be next on the shiv-list.
23:38:03 Piecewise_: nah, the thing levels up on its own, though he can feed it his level up to make it level faster
23:38:06 Devastator: it might 1 and I kill it.
23:38:21 Devastator: I mean, you 1, hit me, and I've got good odds to counterstrike and kill it.
23:39:40 ER: just about anything useful I could do has a signifigant chance of 1. :P
23:40:06 ER: hoping that I can get away with scanning for a breach using Implant...
23:40:20 Devastator: Do you have an implant that does that?
23:40:29 ER: now, what I could do is toss the skull into the cockpit
23:40:38 ER: that would have a small chance of 1.
23:40:50 Devastator: That sounds like a bad idea.
23:41:16 Devastator: Even if the skull succeeds, it fails.
23:42:06 ER: I guess there's a chance that the screaming skull rolls a pacifing or mind control effect or something and thus is the only thing that can lead to a bloodless result.
23:42:31 Devastator: I could just use my truncheon instead of the ceramic knife.
23:42:45 Devastator: that would be less lethal.
23:43:22 Devastator: But the huge amount of crazed screaming, otoh..
23:44:04 ER: hmm, should I dibs the corpse now, or next turn...
23:44:56 Devastator: Just for the duration of the flight.
23:45:06 Devastator: I'll let people loot it after the flight.
23:45:23 Devastator: I don't want an uncontrolled scrum leading to more chaos.
23:46:51 Devastator: lets at least get off this ride before descending into horror over the still-warm body of our colleague.
23:48:44 Devastator: I mean, he hasn't even hit the floor yet.
