04:27:36 Devastator: hey syv.
04:28:01 syv: hey dev.
04:29:28 Devastator: I'll finish mad scientists when youtube runs out of videos.
04:29:38 Devastator: so sometime between eventually and never.
04:29:58 syv: ...Kay.
04:30:08 Devastator: (I'll get it done tonight, just procrastinating.
04:30:10 Devastator: )
04:30:30 Devastator: have to start with deciding if NG gets a tiny animal or a small one, and small is more entertaining but forces me to make ruling.
04:30:32 Devastator: rulings.
04:36:37 Devastator: also, sorry about the results. Not ideal, those.
04:38:43 syv: Oh.
04:38:52 syv: I have two planes, the last escaped.
04:38:58 syv: You only marked me as having one.
04:39:11 Devastator: yes, one escaped, one crash-landed.
04:39:17 syv: Dunno if that affects my funding, since money-wise I actually lost less than most people.
04:39:18 Devastator: should be one damaged.
04:39:33 Devastator: no, I got it right when checking funding, double and triple checked my totals.
04:40:05 syv: Yeah. I have one damaged jet, zero undamaged jets.
04:40:20 Devastator: Yeah, should be one undamaged one.
04:40:31 Devastator: whoops. Got funding right, but missed that.
04:40:55 syv: Does the council count damaged but repairable units as losses?
04:41:48 Devastator: You're not sure.
04:41:50 Devastator: ask Irony.
04:41:53 Devastator: (sorry.)
04:43:01 syv: Then "yes".
04:43:58 Devastator: I am going to make one ruling change, though.
04:44:38 Devastator: since you don't pay upkeep on something damaged, fixing it shouldn't cost the same as you spend in upkeep. I'm going to change that to double upkeep. In return I'll give you guys all a funding bump.
04:44:41 Devastator: it'll start next month.
04:45:32 syv: ...Hasn't repairing always cost double upkeep?
04:47:56 Devastator: I think it's been single. I can't find where I wrote that in the OP, though.
04:48:04 Devastator: I'll write it when I change the rule.
04:48:34 Devastator: yeah, whoops, was double.
04:48:38 Devastator: I screwed up at a few points.
04:49:01 Devastator: yeah, double.
04:49:03 Devastator: doah.
04:49:13 Devastator: always should have been that, wonder if I undercharged anyone.
04:49:21 Devastator: I mentioned that as recently as last turn.
04:49:58 syv: I'm pretty sure I've always budgeting for it being double upkeep.
04:50:06 Devastator: Yeah, I"ve told you, and a few others.
04:50:08 syv: And I don't recall ending up with extra cash.
04:50:09 Devastator: as recently as last turn.
04:50:16 Devastator: my brain must have screwed up during the last month or so.
04:50:19 Devastator: I'll go write it down.
04:50:35 Devastator: I can't see anyone I only charged single, either..
04:52:19 syv: Hrm.
04:52:29 syv: I think you gave me an extra scientist turn at some point.
04:53:14 Devastator: possible. I say three months, but you really get them for effectively four.
04:53:22 Devastator: or I missed deducting one.
04:53:24 Devastator: not going to worry about that too much.
04:53:44 syv: ...And I think you didn't downtick my research projects.
04:53:55 Devastator: you don't do research during action phases.
04:54:01 Devastator: it's by month, not by turn.
04:54:09 Devastator: need a MS if you want to do extra.
04:55:27 syv: But yeah, checking. Mar. 20 update, 3 moths left for explosives, two turns left on scientist.
04:55:46 syv: Apr. 11, 2 months left for explosives, two turns left on scientist.
04:56:07 Devastator: can you link the updates?
04:56:09 Devastator: I can knock off a turn.
04:56:20 syv: They're on my desktop, so no.
04:56:40 syv: Feb 30th, 2 months for explosives, one month for scientist.
04:56:51 syv: So do they just tradeoff when they get ticked down?
04:57:07 Devastator: Yeah, they end after the action phase, that's when they go back into the hiring pool.
04:57:12 Devastator: ie, that's the end of the 'month.'
04:57:22 syv: Confusing.
04:57:24 Devastator: but the 'month' of research is done during the purchase phase, when you do research.
04:59:22 Devastator: Yeah, it's correct that way.
04:59:41 Devastator: I gotta do it that way so they come up for hire at the same time as you can hire them.
05:00:03 syv: Oh, I have infantry too.
05:00:18 syv: But they died.
05:00:26 syv: ER's infantry were the only survivors.
05:02:02 Devastator: Yeah.
05:02:11 Devastator: and yeah, I did mark those off as casulties for the scoring.
05:02:17 Devastator: did I only double-check that part of it?
05:02:40 syv shrugs
05:03:06 Devastator: corrected.
05:03:08 Devastator: looks that way.
05:03:26 Devastator: let me go over everyone else's forces for a sec..
05:04:05 Devastator: They're all fine.
05:04:10 Devastator: dammit.
05:10:51 Devastator: "While waiting for repairs, her crew was involved in a large brawl with the locals, caused by their unfamiliarity with the mould found on edible blue cheese."
05:12:55 Devastator: reading about the Georgios Averof.

05:31:25 er: *tired noises*
05:34:18 Devastator: heya.
05:34:27 syv: Hello.
05:37:40 Devastator: I'll just roll for it.
05:37:43 Devastator: 1 NG gets a tiny animal.
05:37:47 Devastator: 2 it's a small animal.
05:37:56 Devastator: and small.
05:40:30 er: You doing alright?
05:42:04 Devastator: ok.
05:42:21 Devastator: screwed up a bit at work but made up for that a bit lately.
05:53:33 Devastator: now that's basically a dog, but it doesn't have to be a dog.
05:53:45 Devastator: any animal that's roughly human-sized counts.
05:54:57 syv: Jaguar.
06:20:12 Devastator: sure.
06:35:36 Devastator: mmm, welp, not a good result there.
06:35:44 Devastator: now just a big, angry jaguar. ;-p
06:37:54 Devastator: mmm.
06:38:21 Devastator: also need an example of a fictional land vehicle that counts as huge, hmm..
06:44:59 er has quit [Quit: AndroIRC - Android IRC Client ( http://www.androirc.com )]
06:45:14 ER has joined #einsteinianroulette
06:45:34 ER: basically a wheeled building at that point, right?
06:48:49 Devastator: yeah.
06:48:53 Devastator: maybe from a show?
06:49:23 ER: there's probably something like that in star wars
06:49:25 ER: somewhere
06:49:53 Devastator: I'm sure.
06:50:13 Devastator: yeah, actually, an AT-ST might count.
06:50:31 Devastator: unless it's too small.
06:51:06 Devastator: yeah, looks like a large.
06:51:26 ER: is it not bigger than the shagohod?
06:51:54 syv: An AT-ST? The robot camels from Hoth?
06:51:55 Devastator: an AT-AT is too big.
06:52:03 syv: How is that only lar--oh, okay.
06:52:05 Devastator: the ST are the two-legged ones.
06:52:16 syv: Yeah, I'd think those are medium.
06:52:19 ER: ^
06:52:22 Devastator: the AT looks more like a giant.
06:52:28 syv: They're basically small tanks on legs.
06:52:28 Devastator: mmm, could be medium, yeah.
06:52:29 ER: thought you meant the camals
06:52:35 Devastator: the camels are too big for that.
06:53:08 ER: at-st is basically a tank sized mech
06:53:25 Devastator: maybe not, though.
06:53:26 Devastator: let me check.
06:53:41 syv: Hrm. Smaller mech from mechwarrior? Mad Cat maybe?
06:54:00 Devastator: some of them should count.
06:54:19 Devastator: mm, yeah, an AT-AT could be a huge.
06:54:52 Devastator: but it could go either way.
06:54:56 Devastator: need something a bit smaller than that.
06:55:02 syv: ...An Eva?
06:55:52 Devastator: Yeah, looks like a heavier mech is a huge.
06:55:58 Devastator: I'll use one of those, they're well-known.
06:56:07 Devastator: smaller ones are larges.
06:56:32 ER: I thought BT mechs would be bigger
06:56:59 syv: I think an assault mech would be too big, from what I recall playing MW3.
06:57:34 syv: But a Mad Cat is fairly squat, and from what I recall has relatively small dimensions among the heavier mechs.
06:58:06 Devastator: assaults are closer to what I'm envisioning. I'd call most medium mechs larges.
06:58:12 Devastator: remember, larges are bigger than tanks.
06:58:46 syv: Yeah. Large is like C-130.
07:01:11 Devastator: yeah.
07:01:27 Devastator: mmm, looks like it'd be assaults being huges at best, not even most heavies.
07:01:41 Devastator: eh, it could change some.
07:15:35 ER: oh hey, it's may 01
07:15:50 ER: ...that means it'll be my birthday in a few. hmm.
07:16:09 ER: next wednesday. not bad
07:18:23 Devastator: uh oh.
07:18:28 Devastator: is zultan going to get an escape?
07:21:48 Devastator: Yeah.
07:28:49 Devastator: It is now the purchase phase of July 1999.
07:29:21 Devastator: well, we're on bonus time now.
07:29:36 Devastator: I figured I'd be able to keep it up through six months game time.
07:33:58 ER: hey syv, you want to watch eva or are you busy?
07:34:34 syv: In theory I'm busy failing to write.
07:35:53 ER: um, how about a distraction, then?
07:36:45 syv: You guys like the game more than me, so if you'd rather I watch Eva then I'm okay with that.
07:44:19 Devastator shrugs
07:44:53 ER: oops
07:44:56 ER: answer is yea
07:45:00 ER: was distracted
07:45:04 ER: by UNSOUNDED
07:45:09 ER: best comic btw
07:48:36 Devastator: ok then.
07:55:02 ER: syv? eva?
07:55:33 syv: Kay.
07:55:55 Devastator: where were we?
07:55:56 ER: on 20, iirc
07:56:11 Devastator: (I want to slp soon, so probably just one.)
07:56:58 syv: 20, yes.
07:57:09 syv: It's up.
07:57:53 Devastator: `rr
07:58:04 ER: ready

07:58:17 syv: 2
07:58:18 syv: 1

08:01:13 Devastator: Welp, we're boned.
08:01:16 Devastator: </bender>
08:01:59 syv: "It's craaaamped to work down theeeere!"
08:02:12 ER: how did they catch it
08:02:12 syv: "Why can't we keep working in the destroyed plaaace?"
08:02:38 syv: Gendo went out there and said "GET BACK IN YOUR BOX."
08:02:39 Devastator: because apparently they can jury rig all of Japan's electricity in a few days, but can't rebuild a control centre on a similar time scale.
08:03:33 ER: rip shinji
08:03:43 syv: Nah.
08:03:53 Devastator: "He's masturbating?"
08:03:55 syv: Nobody's told him to get in the fucking robot yet.
08:03:56 Devastator: ;-p
08:04:11 syv: He can't die until someone curses at him.
08:04:20 Devastator: He has to get permission to die.
08:05:05 Devastator: I will admit they're taking this more seriously than was expected.
08:05:06 ER: dammit ada
08:05:33 Devastator: "Those are words, alright."
08:06:13 Devastator: They really did believe computers were magic, didn't they?
08:06:32 syv: Agh
08:06:40 Devastator: I saw no shots of Gendo.
08:06:42 syv: Fucking pokémon seizures
08:06:53 syv: Ow
08:07:02 syv: How can you *watch* that?
08:07:09 Devastator: My eyes are not normal.
08:07:17 Devastator: blind, remember?
08:07:31 Devastator: still no Gendo in those frames.
08:07:33 Devastator: there he is.
08:07:43 syv: You can perceive light, and rapid flashes hurt even if you can't see detal
08:08:01 Devastator: yeah, but I can make out lots of flashes like that..
08:08:21 Devastator: Yay, there's the name.
08:09:15 Devastator: ooh.
08:09:19 Devastator: mystery backstory.
08:09:25 ER: pathos!
08:09:52 syv: And no angel attacks in the meantime.
08:10:01 Devastator shrugs.
08:10:15 Devastator: "I'm bored."
08:10:17 Devastator: ;-p
08:11:51 Devastator: good stuff.
08:11:59 ER: good
08:12:04 Devastator: Torrent of ardent pathos indeed.
08:12:38 ER: assimiliate
08:12:57 syv: Apotheosis is fucking weird.
08:13:49 Devastator: Words!
08:14:00 Devastator: IT MEANS WORDS!
08:14:19 syv: I wonder if they actually bothered to translate those words.
08:14:26 syv: Or if they just made their own babb;e.
08:14:31 Devastator: No idea.
08:14:33 Devastator: but that's an idea.
08:15:05 Devastator: "He's dead, Jim."
08:15:05 ER: again
08:17:15 Devastator: Well, that was trippy.
08:19:57 syv: Quality animation.
08:20:00 ER: mhm
08:20:15 ER: how's the english va?
08:20:29 syv: Meh.
08:21:35 syv: Still has previews.
08:21:43 syv: Can't say I was a fan of that.
08:22:07 syv: I liked some of the stream of thought psych ramble, but hated the attempt to give me a seizure.
08:22:40 syv: And the rest was the writing equivalent of a man aggressively jacking off in the street while screaming that he's art.
08:23:50 ER: https://i.pinimg.com/originals/14/88/e4/1488e4dd21193905a6c145e20efa24f5.gif
08:26:50 Devastator: It seemed like it was trying to go between pressing the reset button and doing too much.
08:26:54 Devastator: tried the impossible.
08:27:03 Devastator: and yeah, some of the psych stuff was good.
09:42:18 ER: and now, for something completely different
