02:02:10 AlsoDev: oh man, new Earthbound inbounds TAS.
02:02:17 AlsoDev: That's gonna be a watch later.
02:02:39 AlsoDev: anyway, gotta go get ready to shut down. Be home soon.
04:20:35 Devastator: completely accurate.
04:21:45 Devastator: "9603120071 is an actual accession number for an incident at San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station in 1996. Four slightly contaminated stray kittens were found, cleaned, and adopted. No clock times were mentioned in the report."
04:21:51 Devastator: I don't want to check that in case it isn't true.
04:44:44 syv has joined #einsteinianroulette
04:45:24 Devastator: looks like no luck with dubs. Maybe another day.
04:46:13 syv: He responded to my PM, saying he'd actually tried a few times, but had issues with Darkmyst. His client said it didn't exist or something.
04:46:33 syv: He said he'd try harder. So...
04:48:09 Devastator: odd, he got in once.
04:48:18 Devastator: yeah, hopefully it'll work.
04:48:23 Devastator: shouldn't be too time-sensitive anyway.
05:00:23 syv has joined #einsteinianroulette
05:02:38 Devastator: so four turns left.
05:04:58 Piecewise2 has joined #einsteinianroulette
05:05:15 Piecewise2: What the fuck is this thing
05:05:32 Piecewise2: I tried two different clients to log on and neither worked
05:05:47 Piecewise2: They just dumped me in an empty chat
05:05:55 ER: guess your clients just suck and are afraid of how awesome we are
05:06:05 Devastator: Suffering from game withdrawl.
05:06:14 Devastator: it's been like two years since I've gotten to play stuff, only ran stuff.
05:06:22 Devastator: and these mooks were talking about mook, and..
05:06:38 Devastator: eh, just wanted to run some questions by you first?
05:06:40 Piecewise2:
Sy bragging about his undead mech?
05:07:07 Devastator: Well.. a bit worried that the game might be too high level for a new character.
05:07:33 Piecewise2: ie people too powerful?
05:07:36 Devastator:
Syv's said that he's the only one with the magic powers that can handle cities worth of ghosts, but that doesn't seem like a situation where a toolbox or a truncheon could do anything.
05:08:15 Piecewise2: I fudged
sy's power level a fair bit there due to the nature of that fight
05:08:31 ER: because kaiju battle is fun
05:08:33 Piecewise2: He normally can't summon a million undead at will
05:08:44 syv: I figured that was the case
05:09:07 ER: but admittedly in that situation one person got a fistfight and the rest got to run away
05:10:11 Piecewise2: They could have stayed and fought!
05:10:27 Piecewise2: Though considering their luck with heavy weapons, probably better to run
05:10:29 Devastator: Anyway, would you be okay with starting at level 2, say, with 500 omni would be okay?
05:13:51 Piecewise2: Eh. We got another new player this turn too. Would be a bit unfair to give you advantages he doesn't have. An extra level and 500 omni isn't really going to make a huge difference regardless. Is there a particular reason you want to be level 2 with 500 omni?
05:14:26 Devastator: It wouldn't have to be just me. But really, it's to accelerate things a mission.
05:14:55 Devastator: like normally I'd be in that same position after a mission of wandering around and hiding.
05:15:00 syv: ...I can kinda see the point of starting omni. The basic classes are pretty light on interesting equipment.
05:15:10 Devastator: ..but I wouldn't be actually doing anything on that mission.
05:15:46 Piecewise2: Eh, guess so. I'll give the other guy the same treatment.
05:16:22 ER: hey, what's the biggest gun I could get for 500 omni,
sy?
05:16:31 Piecewise2: Just be aware Mook is not exactly designed for long term survival.
RC had the most powerful robot body and still got merc'd pretty good
05:16:40 Piecewise2: Explosives are powerful
05:16:59 Devastator: The flat roll system seems much more newbie-friendly than the
ER system.
05:17:39 Devastator: 500 omni would make it much easier to buy a revive next mission, if the first one is survived.
05:18:14 Devastator: anyway, thanks! I'll work the sheet up sometime tomorrow.
05:18:22 Devastator: need to update Extinction first.
05:18:28 syv: Yeah, explosives. Metal storm pistol is alright.
05:19:11 Devastator: I remember deliberately buying EMP nades because you can't kill yourself with those if you're in a human body.
05:19:46 syv: Placed charge would be fun. 150 omni, pretty much the most powerful attack.
05:19:47 Devastator: anyway, thanks. Just wanted to run that by you and find out if powers like that were common things.
05:19:54 Devastator: bad time for a one.
05:19:58 Devastator: oh, one more question.
05:20:04 Devastator: can you buy robot pets?
05:20:20 Devastator: next up, placed charge on robodog.
05:20:39 Piecewise2: They tried that with real dogs. Didn't go well
05:20:55 Devastator: but I was thinking like a remote control on it.
05:20:56 Piecewise2: robot dogs might be better
05:21:13 syv: Huh, spiderbot costs twice as much as the shittiest humanoid body?
05:21:29 syv: Makes sense, it has a lot more stats and abilities, just... didn't expect tiny to be more expensive.
05:21:47 Piecewise2: Because they don't pay for replacement bodies for you. Wanted it to be fairly cheap
05:22:08 Devastator: huh, how much are they?
05:23:52 syv: Comes with a crappy pistol and a universal connector, though.
05:23:59 syv: With some solid stats to boot.
05:24:31 syv: Robodog I'd expect to be half that or less. Would seem reasonable to be cheaper than a similarly-statted human body, since dog has no hands.
05:24:51 syv: Yeaaah. Was wondering what to spend my other money on.
05:25:13 syv: A spider and junk humanoid companion might be very good. Maybe get a loan for cheap armor.
05:32:30 Devastator: eh, cly the thematic thing for me would be robo-bird.
05:36:41 Devastator: are the classes stat requirements or bonuses,
PW?
05:39:05 syv: Man, that means Radio got reset to just *barely* more than newbie level
05:39:25 Devastator: well, other than the 1k starting cash. ;-p
05:39:53 ER: I'm still just sad about my original character getting atomized randomly
05:40:15 Devastator: My guy was gonna retire. ;-p
05:40:21 Devastator: Never should have told anyone about it.
05:40:26 Devastator: very bad fate that.
05:41:19 Devastator: I think I made that very same joke to
PW,
syv.
05:41:38 syv: Well it's a good joke, stands to be repeated.
05:42:44 syv: ...Fuck, Naturegirl's been gone for a month and a half.
05:42:56 syv: I probably can't ask for consent to clone her character.
05:44:31 Devastator: Can you ask one of the NPCs to find you someone good to clone?
05:44:37 Devastator: I mean, I'm sure there's someone if you pay.
05:44:53 Devastator: Or someone will come up with a monkey or something.
05:45:16 ER: just ambush tara with the blood sample needle, it'll be fine
05:45:49 ER: ah, a chimp body would be good
05:46:03 Devastator: yeah, I mean, you could roll for it.
05:46:10 Devastator: I'm sure you can outwrestle the 4'6" girl.
05:46:15 syv: I think Wilfred would vehemently object to mimicking our overlords.
05:46:48 syv: Also, Wilfred would actually probably fail, unless he used his hardsuit.
05:46:58 Devastator: NG has decent stats? ;-p
05:47:14 Devastator: (actually, she might. Probably hasn't died.)
05:47:36 ER: seems like an NG move to level explusively strength or something
05:47:57 Devastator: I remember the opposite from Cabal.
05:47:59 syv: NG has the best stats in the game
05:48:07 Devastator: she'd have minimum strength and then try to use it all the time.
05:48:36 Devastator: not dying and not spending the starting points on skills? ;-p
05:48:49 ER: yeah, but what if she leveled strength and then used everything else?
05:49:28 Devastator: ..I'm still amused that if Saeko successfully turned NG's char into a pixie, she'd have done much better, simply by being unable to attempt strength tests.
05:49:41 Devastator: ..plus she kept falling off stuff.
05:52:42 Devastator: I think
PW said that's over. Was too far from a conclusion and was only me and
RC.
05:52:51 Devastator: and
RC vetoed any PvP.
05:53:26 Devastator: I did want to find out if the destroyers had any accurate info and were just dumb about execution, but didn't get to that point.
05:53:50 Devastator: ..and I did want to have the amusing scene of summoning sky goddess to an altar literally mounted on my character's back, but that scene was also not meant to be.
05:54:00 Devastator: it was a lot of fun.
05:59:30 Devastator: hmm, shoulda asked the various godly beings to redo the bodymodding, since they were saying that humans do it very inefficiently and there was a ton of wasted mana there. And the sky goddess daughter should be able to remake a big flyer.
05:59:48 Devastator: the space mountain one was also an observer, so hmm.
05:59:53 Devastator: gah, the things you miss.
06:00:31 Piecewise2: That game was a certainly a bizarre ride from what it was intended to be
06:00:46 Devastator: yeah, was supposed to be map takeover originally, right?
06:00:51 Devastator: we just didn't have the peeps to do it.
06:01:03 Piecewise2: yeah, lot of people jumped ship
06:01:15 Piecewise2: became open world manderings
06:01:54 Devastator: I just can't play within the lines! ;-p
06:09:14 Piecewise2: I'm sure if you had been in mook for the last mission you would have wandered off and started a farm
06:09:30 Piecewise2: and then gotten stomped by one of the three giant monsters in that mission
06:09:36 Piecewise2: two of which were
sy's fault!
06:10:42 Devastator: I think one of my two missions
sy shot the guy we were trying to rescue.
06:14:30 syv: Yeah, my char is specialized in killing and destroying whatever he's aimed at.
06:14:50 syv: I need to start tracking his teamkills.
06:15:38 Piecewise2: If we include civies that is gonna be a big number
06:15:55 syv: Civilians definitely aren't on our team.

17:05:35 Devastator: Heya
piecewise, let me just finish up my purchases.
21:14:55 Devastator:
Piecewise, can you buy multiple forcefields, to replace the one that got broken?
21:15:48 Piecewise: You can't stack active ones, but you could have multiple on you, ready to swap out if one broke
21:19:11 Devastator: doesn't seem as effective as just buying spacesuits, unfortunately.
21:19:41 Devastator: maybe I can make something work.
21:20:04 Devastator: or create something better.
21:23:22 Devastator: I like the aesthetics of using a forcefield instead of wearing a bulky suit everywhere.
