The below is a unique name for your settings. If you update your settings on one device, all other devices with the same name should be updated. This is done by checking if the stored cookie has an update date later than your current cookie. If you change the name, then the update date will be set to 0 so that an attempt will be made to load the latest data from the database.

04:05:05 Devastator: 'lo egan.
04:51:52 syv has joined #einsteinianroulette
04:52:56 Devastator: 'lo
04:53:09 Egan_: hello
04:54:22 Devastator: ahh, hello Egan.
04:54:56 syv: 'lo
04:55:13 syv: I want to devour a corpse ._.
04:55:44 Devastator: oh?
04:56:00 Devastator: hungry for meat, or is this more exotic?
04:56:59 syv: Meat really
04:57:16 syv: Though I really want to rip into something and tear it apart with my teeth
04:57:23 syv: So I guess I want a big steak
04:57:30 syv: And no silverware
04:57:39 syv: ...Yes that is definitely the case, visualizing ir
04:59:36 Devastator: Well, good luck.
05:00:52 Devastator: mmm, slow CM.
05:01:00 Devastator: I remain essentially in a box.
05:05:15 Egan_: bleh, I need a water
05:05:33 Egan_: cough cough cough
05:08:10 Devastator: Hah.
05:08:32 Devastator: some commentator suggested that Allison's power in K6BD is to say what should be her last words and have them not be her last.
05:16:19 syv: That's both an amazing power and a shit power
05:16:43 Devastator: Yes, it would be.
05:17:11 Egan_: particularly because it doesn't let her be unscathed, more like she's burning fate points
05:17:11 Devastator: Now.. how to put that into a magical girl wish..
05:17:37 Egan_: oh look, you just barely didn't actually die from that!
05:17:38 Devastator: I do admit, it's pretty badass to have infinite fate points whenever you say something that should result in your death.
05:19:06 Egan_: I was just checking the only war book today, it does recommend the GM give fate points to players who pull something off or RP particularly well
05:19:20 syv: I like fate points
05:19:29 syv: I was thinking about adding them to the nyafor system
05:19:34 Egan_: so if you say your badass line well enough you might just be given a fate point that you will be needing very soon :p
05:22:33 Devastator: Hah.
05:25:41 Egan_: hmm, in 40k fate points seem to have a kinda supernatural element to them, representing that big E has plans for you, or maybe tzeentch or some other schemer god
05:25:53 Egan_: what would that be in nyafor?
05:26:11 Egan_: well, I guess the gods could be real...
05:26:37 Egan_: particularly the ascended fox god, but maybe others
05:34:23 syv: In nyafor it would be "really good tactics"
05:34:31 syv: Remember uh
05:35:06 syv: That scene near the end of Jormungand? With the Navy SEALs who were basically teleporting occult ghosts?
05:35:46 Egan_: no :p
05:35:51 syv: That's sad :(
05:36:41 Devastator: oh god.
05:36:46 Devastator: that's reminding me of Irony's game.
05:37:02 Devastator: where I tried to play CREEEEED, and took the power to summon a baneblade wherever I goddamn well pleased.
05:37:30 Egan_: the BAAAAANEBLAAAAAADE
05:38:11 syv: Unironically yes
05:38:41 syv: Same way Creed's absurdly good tactics are reflected in basically having absurd stealth magic on the tabletop
05:38:56 syv: Nyafor "fate points" would be tactic points you spend to break the rules a bit
05:39:35 Devastator: Yeah, I could see it doing teleports or something.
05:41:02 syv: I was thinking like "You can negate an attack (because you were using cover well)", or "you can move a category closer than normal (because you're really fast and aggressive)" or "you can shoot first despite being at a disadvantage", etc.
05:41:35 syv: The former being a big one really. Nyafor system currently is really lethal if your opponent is competent.
05:41:39 Egan_: well, I was considering the commander character in my own nyafor game would be a psychic tactical genius, and that just covers having the ability to micromanage units :p
05:41:49 syv: And there's not really much of any way to mitigate that.
05:41:52 syv: Which is realistic!
05:42:02 syv: But realism isn't good in games.
05:42:33 syv: And yes, magic helps a lot. It works well in actual post-rift nyafor, slots in -very- nicely.
05:42:51 syv: But it was originally made to be a setting agnostic system I can just use for whatever
05:43:28 syv: Verloren would be the second most likely setting, which does at least have the advantage of your units being cyborg children.
05:43:34 syv: And cyborg children break rules.
05:44:21 Egan_: call em fudge points. mmmm, fudge
05:44:51 Egan_: ooooor... foresight?
05:44:55 syv: That's too honest :(
05:45:18 Devastator: If you're gonna be honest like that, call thm Bullshit Dice or something.
05:45:21 syv: Foresight would be better if it were just a bonus given to the PC, I suppose.
05:45:27 Egan_: hahaha, I planned for this very circumstance (in-character)
