00:32:12 Devastator: heya.
00:32:14 Devastator: heya whisperling.
01:03:20 Devastator pokes Whisperling.
01:03:27 Whisperling: Hi there.
01:04:52 Whisperling: This going through?
01:05:19 Devastator: Yeah.
01:05:21 Devastator: just fine.
01:05:48 Devastator: Good to see you.
01:06:46 Whisperling: Cool
01:06:52 Whisperling: & Likewise.
01:06:54 Devastator: Did you see the other box?
01:07:02 Devastator: Uhh.. you're on mibbet, right?
01:07:12 Devastator: there should be another box next to the one for the channel with Devastator on it.
01:07:13 Whisperling: I think so
01:07:21 Whisperling: Ah, yep
01:07:22 Whisperling: I see.
01:07:23 Devastator: Those are private messages.
01:07:37 Whisperling: Gotcha.
01:08:11 Devastator: well, Europa's having fun.
01:10:33 Whisperling: Yeah
01:10:38 Whisperling: Should probably update for you actually.
01:10:48 Devastator: yeah, be good to know what exactly she can do.
01:10:55 Devastator: oh, one thing came to mind.
01:10:59 Devastator: is she venomous?
01:13:45 Whisperling: If you bite someone? Sure.
01:14:11 Whisperling: Her fingernails aren't going to turn into snake fangs though.
02:13:59 ER has joined #einsteinianroulette
02:15:57 ER: hey Whisperling
02:16:13 ER: you here to consult the goblin?
02:16:22 Devastator: the goblin concurs.
02:32:20 Whisperling: Yup. :P
02:33:07 ER: secrets
02:34:10 Piecewise_: Gobble bobble
02:35:54 Devastator: sikrits.
02:36:02 ER: tell me.
02:36:06 Devastator: do want to chat with Zavi, though, to negotiate her lying.
02:36:18 Devastator: well, I'm making a fighter-type character, and we're doing things.
02:36:59 ER: I'm not playing as actual police in this one, so maybe I won't have to beat you up
02:38:29 Devastator: ok.
02:38:36 Devastator: I'll go post some RP.
02:44:03 Devastator: posted.
02:48:35 Whisperling has quit [Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client]
02:48:49 Whisperling has joined #einsteinianroulette
03:09:15 Piecewise_: Maybe I won't have to abuse my authority
03:09:17 Piecewise_: maybe
03:09:20 Piecewise_: if you're lucky
03:09:38 ER: you don't have authority
03:10:32 Piecewise_: I'm talking from your perspective
03:10:49 Devastator: mmm.
03:10:51 Piecewise_: Cabal updates tomorrow
03:10:56 Devastator: ..uh..
03:11:02 Devastator: welp.
03:11:04 Piecewise_: FASTER
03:11:06 Piecewise_: FASTER
03:11:09 Piecewise_: I WILL POST FASTER
03:11:21 Devastator: hah.
03:11:28 ER: eh. well, my character in whisperling's game only has a small amount of authority specifically witch crows
03:12:08 Piecewise_: Take all their crow money
03:12:38 Devastator: dang it.
03:12:42 ER: maybe I can get them to pay me for having a magic job, who knows
03:12:43 Piecewise_: I can always be lazy and not post tomorrow
03:12:47 Devastator: and post RP, ER, I'd like to have that bit settled.
03:12:56 Devastator: yeah, skipping a day would be good.
03:13:03 Piecewise_: yay!
03:13:04 ER: you can't tell me what to do!
03:13:06 Piecewise_: LAZY
03:13:09 Piecewise_: ZZZZZZZZZZZZ
03:15:13 Devastator: welp.
03:15:21 Devastator: well, I can do orders like infinitely, but dammit.
03:16:20 Piecewise_: Hey ER, you have that special sword yet? Did we give it to you et?
03:16:29 ER: nope
03:16:35 ER: I want it tho
03:16:40 Piecewise_: Ah, indeed
03:26:16 Devastator: what special sword?
03:26:19 Devastator: the one that's special?
03:26:59 Piecewise_: The sword he gets as a mage breaker
03:27:08 Devastator: Ahh.
03:27:18 Devastator: well, he's gotta get named a magebreaker first.
03:27:30 Devastator: lemme know if you want one of the swords we found.
03:28:05 ER: I don't want your stinkin swords
03:33:12 Devastator: ok.
03:33:31 Devastator: "stare at the pile of swords, looking for a sword word."
03:33:33 Devastator: "Fail."
03:58:35 Piecewise_: I still don't think you understand why words are places
03:58:44 Piecewise_: there's a reason they're places
03:58:52 Piecewise_: like the reason they're on the crystal in the rifle
03:58:59 Devastator: I don't understand why words are places.
03:59:07 Devastator: because you just said one's on an item.
04:00:49 Piecewise_: ?
04:01:05 Devastator: 'they're on the crystal in the rifle'
04:01:08 Devastator: ..that's a word on an item.
04:02:36 Piecewise_: yes
04:02:42 Piecewise_: they're engraved in the crystal
04:03:19 Devastator: so why can't I find them in a pile of items?
04:04:08 Piecewise_: You might. But I'm just saying that looking at a bunch of guns isn't going to net you a "Gun" word
04:04:16 ER: wonder if I could get something from one of the thaumic flying machines?
04:04:34 Devastator: I think PW is saying no to that, because that'd be an item not a location.
04:04:37 Devastator: maybe the hangar?
04:05:38 Devastator: I'm also not sure why, because either words are just random, or words are related to the room, but having a bunch of it doesn't count for the room.
04:05:43 Devastator: maybe I need to have them around for a while?
04:05:45 Devastator: I don't know.
04:06:50 Piecewise_: Nah you might find words in the flying machine
04:07:00 Piecewise_: Specific ones, but ones
04:07:06 Piecewise_: depends at the part you look at too
04:07:16 ER: they're animal based, might get an animal out of it
04:07:27 Piecewise_: I feel I might be confusing Dev
04:07:29 Devastator: I don't know.
04:07:36 Devastator: I was told I can't find a cat word on my cat.
04:07:39 ER: confusing dev is very easy
04:07:45 Piecewise_: maybe you should ask Ekrov to turn his big weird eye on the problem
04:07:47 Devastator: maybe because they're old?
04:07:52 Devastator: I would, but he isn't here.
04:07:57 ER: because he is an eldritch horror who does not think like us mortals
04:08:42 Devastator: maybe because they haven't moved?
04:11:43 Devastator: All I know is no cats, because they move around and don't live so long.
04:11:46 Devastator: or something.
04:11:50 Devastator: and aren't locations.
04:12:53 Devastator: or why not?
04:13:06 Devastator: eh, maybe I'll look where he's been sleeping for a week and see if it's a cat temple and I can get cat from there.
04:15:18 Devastator: but no, can you give me a hint, PW?
04:19:43 Whisperling has quit [Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client]
04:20:08 Whisperling has joined #einsteinianroulette
04:32:01 Piecewise_: A hint?
04:32:09 Devastator: Yeah, I'm just not getting it.
04:32:22 Piecewise_: The words being there and how thaumic machines work are connected.
04:32:25 Devastator: you can find words in locations, but not in items, unless someone put them there presumably.
04:36:34 Devastator: did I have not-terrible odds of finding those specific words I was looking for in those rooms?
04:37:07 Piecewise_: Specific words? You had ok odds of finding one of them
04:37:15 Piecewise_: searching in general for words is easier
04:37:30 Piecewise_: If you want contain, I suggest looking inside the core room
04:37:51 Devastator: I'd love any of those words.
04:37:55 Devastator: but yeah.
04:38:03 Devastator: Ice isn't bad, but yeah, contain would be amazing.
04:51:30 Whisperling has quit [Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client]
05:15:37 Devastator: "looking sharp, ferp."
05:15:48 ER: yesh
05:33:54 Devastator: indeeed.
05:33:57 Devastator: and they're red.
05:34:01 Devastator: another infiltrator?
05:36:40 Devastator: hrm.
05:36:42 Devastator: syv?
05:37:07 ER: syyyv
05:37:19 Devastator: yeah.
05:37:26 Devastator: quick updates.
06:29:29 Devastator: https://xkcd.com/1489/
07:05:38 ER: right, what am I doing
07:09:28 Devastator: dunno.
07:09:30 Devastator: RP?
07:11:14 syv has joined #einsteinianroulette
07:13:48 Devastator: hey syv.
07:14:06 syv: hey dev.
07:14:45 Devastator: good to see you.
07:15:46 ER: ahrr pee
07:15:51 Devastator: yeah.
07:15:56 syv: Our pee?
07:15:58 syv: Eww.
07:16:05 ER: not feelin it
07:16:42 syv: Warm, wet, gross. Be happy that you aren't.
07:17:01 Devastator: mmm.
07:17:11 Devastator has cleaned far, far too many bathrooms.
07:17:38 ER: that's not my job anymore! :D
07:19:45 Devastator: nor is it mine.
07:24:49 syv: HEY, EGADS! "Would you consider keeping some of this magicoal.. secret from the mage breakers?"
07:25:55 ER: I might be able to recreationally RP, but that is srs bsnnsns
07:26:09 ER: and I don't feel like focusing enough
07:26:16 syv: It's a pretty simple question.
07:26:18 ER: also, eating my leftovers
07:26:31 syv: Is Zavi willing to consider lying to mage breakers?
07:27:06 syv: Saeko's not even asking if she *will*, she's specifically just asking if Zavi's *willing*.
08:33:10 ER: such... a good... panel... must... share... https://www.schlockmercenary.com/2011-09-18
08:34:17 Devastator: mmm
08:34:27 Devastator: such a boring panel.
08:34:28 Devastator: ;-p
08:34:31 Devastator: nah, but it's ok.
08:34:54 ER: Para is a minmaxed support build, and it's great
08:36:08 Devastator: Boring, really.
08:36:13 Devastator: ;-p
08:36:27 Devastator: "Nice work."
08:36:30 Devastator: "I had a cheat."
08:36:32 syv: Man. Schlock doesn't seem like a bad comic, whatever Dev says, but ugh do I hate the artstyle.
08:36:47 ER: you both need to git gud
08:37:19 Devastator: IMO it got bad. Nothing interesting happened after a while, and the plot continued to ensure that every single situation would be solved by ancient tech forever.
08:37:37 Devastator: Originally it was supposed to be about hurting people and breaking things.
08:37:40 Devastator: both of those stopped.
08:38:05 ER: eena afa is a lot like the anceint city you stumbled on in cabal ;P
08:38:47 Devastator: Yeah, although this one is causing problems.
08:38:52 syv: Seems to have transitioned more into philisophical discussion of too-far-out SF. Fairly biased discussion, but not boring,
08:39:12 Devastator: Yes, where everyone does nothing forever.
08:39:14 ER: megastructures fun~
08:39:15 Devastator: the best stories.
08:39:47 syv: Didn't you say that situations get solved by ancient tech?
08:40:49 Devastator: in general. The solution that involves people not doing anything but stumbling on the answer.
08:41:00 syv: You can have stories where nothing much happens beyond social interactions, which don't even change in any permanent fashion with any regularity. These are in fact some of the most popular stories~
08:41:21 Devastator: I don't like those stories.
08:41:28 Devastator: If I want those stories, I do them in RL.
08:41:38 syv: And you can have stories where people stumble across answers by dumb luck, or by having them handed to them, and they aren't necessarily even bad.
08:41:39 Devastator: you know, with people.
08:41:44 syv: Well sure. *You* don't like those stories.
08:41:54 Devastator: Yeah.
08:42:03 ER: most of the books are social interaction for the first 2/3 followed by everything going to shit for the last third and some resolution, which is honestly usually something sudden.
08:42:08 Devastator: I was never secretive about why I don't like Schlock Mercenary.
08:42:36 syv: I didn't like One Punch Man, I found it terribly boring, but I've never called it a boring story where nothing happens.
08:42:54 ER: he doesn't like it because it's changed
08:43:01 syv: Yeah.
08:43:10 syv: It's a genre you dislike, now.
08:43:35 ER: now things a bit more eldritch entities trying to destory all life
08:43:46 Devastator: That's what it supposedly was earlier on.
08:43:47 ER: and tremendous forces fighting them
08:43:49 Devastator: now you know they'll do nothing.
08:44:55 Devastator: but yeah, I don't like it because it changed. I liked it, it changed, and now I don't like it.
08:45:05 Devastator: I mean, they got rid of the stuff I liked and brought in lots of stuff I don't like.
08:45:10 Devastator: ..it's not rocket science.
08:45:20 syv: Totally fair.
08:46:25 syv: You do tend to express your dislike for it in a fashion that comes across less as "I don't like this" and more "this is remarkly complete shit on a level surpassing most shit."
08:49:13 Devastator: That's true, yeah.
09:28:23 ER has quit [Quit: HydraIRC -> http://www.hydrairc.com <- \o/]
11:03:45 syv has quit [Quit: You hear a distant scream of "FUCK AT&T!"]
