06:11:52 Devastator: Bismuth did a video on 00 agent Frigate, the most luck-based goldeneye speedrun.
06:28:00 syv: I wish a youtuber would do a deep dive explanation for Blood Of The Racers speedruns
06:29:27 Devastator: Could send the guy a message!
06:34:56 syv: I deeply doubt that would go anywhere
06:36:14 Devastator: A few youtubers have tried, but no youtuber has ever made Allegiance popular.
06:37:34 syv: I'd also be ashamed to direct anyone towards interviewing top AoTTG racers
06:37:44 syv: Checking our top three record holders...
06:38:25 syv: Hedin is #1, and is a 17 y/o Turkish guy who spends about a third of his chatting time attempting to insult everyone else's race or nationality.
06:39:34 syv: Riblei is #2 and is some of kind of insane, though he's at least pretty nice. He would not be able to explain much, simply for his communication difficulties.
06:39:46 syv: Keno is #3 and I haven't seen her speak in years
06:40:25 syv: ...I'm #7 on the leaderboard, apparently. Which is kinda hilariously non-indicative.
06:41:25 Devastator: Ahh, yeah, that would be issues.
06:41:41 Devastator: Mind you, I'm imagining someone trying to interview Phoenix and Virulence back to back.
06:41:50 Devastator: (They absolutely, positively HATE each other.)
06:43:21 syv: (#4 is a much worth racist who thankfully left the community, and also sucks; he just did lots of maps nobody plays. #5 is bipolar and... varies wildly in ability to hold a rational conversation. And also hasn't had computer access for over a year; he'd be a serious contender for best player in the world if not for that. #6 is a borderline cheater who just isn't that good.)
06:44:05 syv: At least people in our community mostly don't hate each ogher.
06:44:15 syv: They're just mutually jerks to each other at worst
06:45:51 Devastator: They're just assholes.
06:46:14 Devastator: Also, I'm pretty near ready for another run at the United States.
06:46:39 syv: Do you think you could conquer the entire country if you did really well and got very lucky?
06:46:41 Devastator: although the issue is now that I need a lot more supplies to run squad infantry, and the US has reached the WW1 defensive techs.
06:47:28 Devastator: Nah. I can take another state this time, but I want to wait another year in game to get more money and add some robustness to my supply lines. It'll save like 150k or more a week if I have enough ammo and weapon factories.
06:47:38 Devastator: I have enough to field the troops, but putting them in the war takes a LOT more.
06:48:17 Devastator: Plus this time I'm sending them out with lots of extra kit like automatic machine guns and what not.
06:49:18 Devastator: I need it to be able to overcome them, but there's a hell of a lot of money that goes into fielding these units. Plus equipping a 90,000 man army with trucks is brutally expensive, but I need that if I want to actually be able to take provinces upon winning a battle.
06:49:41 Devastator: (It's normally four battles to occupy a state.)
06:50:03 Devastator: (If I have them properly equipped with trucks, it's TWO battles to occupy a state. Or three if I use the better special attack orders.)
06:54:25 Devastator: (On the other hand, I don't need to truck them to move them around. That's no issue. I just need vehicles for recon purposes)
06:54:48 Devastator: (which makes sense considering I'm the world's #2 car producer.)
06:55:09 Devastator: But if I want them to move around quicker, rail-based transportation is perfectly good for this war.
06:56:05 Devastator: The main problem is what I got lucky to avoid last war. The US's main army of 200+k men in the northeast wasn't unlucky enough to get pocketed.
06:58:35 syv: You really make me want to run a second game alongside kitten rescue
07:03:56 syv: "Frogs flee from the sound of fire [...] This is a novel response to fire not known to occur in other animals."
07:11:36 Devastator: well, a few more Tears and we have an army.
07:13:52 Devastator: Nah, though, writing birbgame was a good idea.
07:14:01 Devastator: it got my Extinction juices flowing again.
07:14:11 syv: Kitten has helped me write too
07:16:23 Devastator: glad it has been good.
08:05:25 Devastator: "For bond, damage taken from explosions depends on the blast radius and distance to bond. For guards, it's much simpler. If they get grazed by an explosion, they die."
08:05:36 Devastator: (Removed explanation of guard luring tactics.)
08:05:54 Devastator: "This means that if any guards see Bond hit another guard with a grenade, all of them will run into the explosion."
08:05:58 Devastator: I like where this is going.
