01:32 <Schism> NialloftheNine, Yea, but this is sick and wrong and I still can't stop laughing.

01:33 <NialloftheNine> Its not sick, just the circle of life. Let the dark humor flow Schism :P

01:33 <Schism> It turns sick when you're listening to the OST of a game about bunnies.  >.>

01:35 <Cepheid> Schism:  More for the darkness of it, really.

01:35 <Cepheid> Though it does raise an interesting question.

01:35 <Cepheid> Why were there no eagle characters in Rabi-Ribi?

01:36 <Schism> Hm, good question.  There were certainly enough cats.

01:40 * Surreal_Nightmares eats the muffin and gives NialloftheNine a cookie.

01:41 <KooK> I'm a certified and trained mechanic...  Plus my studies in college is material engineering.

01:41 * NialloftheNine noms the cookie and hugs Surreal_Nightmares again.

01:43 <KooK> Funny enough, my emphasis is on polymers, guess what my floats were?

01:48 <Surreal_Nightmares> So, one of my friends on Steam has over 1.1K hours in Supreme Commander 2.

01:48 <Schism> Buckministerfullerine!

01:48 <Surreal_Nightmares> Wat.

01:48 <Schism> No, I'm guessing latex.

01:49 <Schism> Oh wait, wrong sort of float.  Go on then.

01:49 <KooK> polytetrafluoroethylene!

01:49 <Schism> Also known as Teflon, for those not in the now.

01:49 <Schism> know.*

01:49 <KooK> :P  I just like saying that word

01:49 <NialloftheNine> Thats alot of life spent on Supreme Commander 2......

01:49 <Schism> Hey, PTFE just doesn't carry the same weight, I'll agree.

01:50 <Surreal_Nightmares> It's not even the best Supreme Commander. That would be Forged Alliance.

01:50 <Schism> KooK: I'm not even a materials engineer and I recognized that compound right off the bat.  Do I need help?

01:50 <KooK> Yes

01:50 <Surreal_Nightmares> ^

01:51 <Surreal_Nightmares> Hallo, Rosie_Alicorn.

01:51 <NialloftheNine> Welcome Rosie_Alicorn

01:51 * Rosie_Alicorn waves to everypony :P

01:52 <Rosie_Alicorn> hello

01:52 <Schism> What gets me is how /simple/ the PTFE molecule is.  Aaaand also how it has four fluorine atoms and I kind of want to run away from it.

01:52 <Smooze> Hahahahahaha! Rosie_Alicorn! Welcome.... TO DIE!

01:52 <Rosie_Alicorn> haha smooze :P

01:52 <Rosie_Alicorn> your silly

01:52 <Schism> But since it's in the water table pretty much everywhere, it's impossible to escape, soooo...

01:52 <KooK> hydrofluoric acid

01:53 <Schism> No, that has a radical, doesn't count.

01:53 <KooK> Fluorine isn't really terrible as long as it's in low doses and stable.

01:53 *** Smooze is now known as Tirek

01:53 <Schism> KooK: You kidding?  The communists put Fluorine in our tap water ages ago and people still claim it's harmless!

01:53 <Schism> Wait, that's fluoride.  Eh.

01:54 <Rosie_Alicorn> heard about that

01:54 <Rosie_Alicorn> wonder why they do that

01:54 <Schism> Strengthens teeth and it's a minor antibiological agent.

01:55 <Rosie_Alicorn> ah ok

01:55 <Rosie_Alicorn> ;p

01:55 <Rosie_Alicorn> :P

01:55 <NialloftheNine> Yay modern minimal hygiene standards!

01:55 <Schism> And if you don't know why that joke is funny, then Rosie, do I have a movie for YOU!

01:55 <Schism> Dr. Strangelove: Or, How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb.

01:56 * Cepheid hands Schism a nine-ball.

01:56 <NialloftheNine> All of those are awesome Schism!

01:56 * Schism drops it on the ground. The resultant explosion takes out a city.

01:56 <Rosie_Alicorn> ah ok never heard of that movie

01:56 <KooK> Schism, did you go to college?

01:56 <Surreal_Nightmares> Oh my God. I thought my friend had 1.1K hours into SupCom 2 but he actually has 1.5K hours into the game.

01:56 <Schism> Briefly, but never really did much there, unfortunately.  Much of my knowledge is acquired from immersion, I fear.

01:57 <Cepheid> Surreal_Nightmares:  Gamers have no life.  Or manage to combine various bits and peices into the semblance of one, while hiding the truth.

01:57 * NialloftheNine pats Surreal_Nightmares shoulder in sympathy

01:57 <Schism> KooK: I know well that old billiard balls are comprised of nitrocellulose, for example, a semistable compound which was meant to replace ivory in billiard balls.

01:57 <Surreal_Nightmares> Don't pat my shoulder. You should pat my friend's shoulder.

01:58 <NialloftheNine> No i have something else for your friend

01:58 <Schism> (And this is also why old films tended to combust.)

01:58 * NialloftheNine hands Surreal_Nightmare a poison muffin.

01:58 <NialloftheNine> Quick and painless, let the misery end

01:58 <Surreal_Nightmares> But I'm gonna be animating. :U

01:58 <Schism> NialloftheNine, Super Doo Sisters?  With Ditzy and Daring as Luigi and Mario, respectively?

01:59 <Rosie_Alicorn> :P

01:59 <NialloftheNine> That would be awesome Schism!

01:59 <Rosie_Alicorn> yes!

02:00 <NialloftheNine> Parasprites instead of flying turtles and cockatrices instead of gumbas.

02:00 <Surreal_Nightmares> Lol

02:01 <Schism> Anyhoo.  KooK: why do you ask?

02:01 <NialloftheNine> Cant stop listening to Most Wonderful of Nights by Aftermath. Its stuck in my head

02:01 <Rosie_Alicorn> lol

02:01 <Cepheid> Hmm.

02:01 <Schism> I know that Fluorine != Fluoride...

02:01 <Cepheid> I have a Walmart for a job location tomorrow.

02:01 <Cepheid> Schism, please kill me.

02:01 <KooK> Schism - Just wondering, not many people know much about chem and mat.

02:01 <Schism> Later.

02:02 * NialloftheNine hands Cepheid a mini nuke and a fat man.

02:02 <NialloftheNine> Its scary out there Cepheid, take one of these

02:02 <Schism> KooK: I've read a lot of very interesting articles.  Have you ever seen the blog 'In the Pipeline'?

02:02 <Surreal_Nightmares> I think you'll need a medic when you get to Walmart, Cepheid.

02:03 <Schism> I also take a particular interest in things which are probably going to kill me down the line.

02:03 <Cepheid> Surreal_Nightmares:  Canadian Walmarts aren't as bad as the ones apparently advertised in the US.

02:03 <Cepheid> But they're still troublesome to do inventory work for.

02:03 <Rosie_Alicorn> walmart is an interesting place

02:03 <NialloftheNine> Hence the mini nuke.

02:03 <Cepheid> Since doing inventory WELL at a Walmart requires that the store crew be doing their job.

02:03 <Rosie_Alicorn> haha yes

02:03 <KooK> At the moment I'm avoiding blogs, news, etc.

02:03 <Cepheid> Also, I'm glad I'm not on the year-round Walmart crew.

02:03 <Cepheid> Apparently the lot of them are constantly drunk.

02:04 <KooK> There's more misinformation going around than there is information

02:04 <Rosie_Alicorn> that would suck and wow Cepheid

02:04 <Schism> KooK: Well, here's one article with which you'll readily agree.  http://blogs.sciencemag.org/pipeline/archives/2010/02/23/things_i_wont_work_with_dioxygen_difluoride -- When you're dealing with fluorine on an atomic scale, you do want to be very, /very/ careful, not least when they're combined with two oxygen atoms.

02:05 <Cepheid> Rosie_Alicorn:  Well, a lot of it has to do with the fact that the crew is always, ALWAYS doing inventory for Walmarts, many of which are run poorly.  Or not at all.

02:05 <Surreal_Nightmares> I'll be right back.

02:09 <NialloftheNine> Welcome back Surreal_Nightmares, check out Cepheid's pick of a deadly lion killing lion projectile. Its the wave of future weaponry

02:10 <Surreal_Nightmares> I saw it.

02:10 <Cepheid> The picture's not mine.  I ran across it on a forum.

02:10 <Cepheid> Thought I'd share.

02:11 <Schism> Cepheid: I'm annoyed that the only thing which bugs me about that picture is, 'are lion teeth piercing weapons?'

02:11 <Cepheid> Bleh, I dun wanna do a Walmart tomorrow.  Ah well, at least I only got 3 shifts this week.

02:11 <Schism> Followed by 'are lion HEADS piercing weapons?'

02:12 <Schism> Cepheid: Know what parts you'll be assigned?

02:12 <Cepheid> For the Walmart, I'll likely be doing cards, shoes and baby clothing.

02:12 <Cepheid> I'm usually sacrificed to do the cards because I like doing the cards.

02:13 <NialloftheNine> Could be worse Cepheid, could be nothing but Walmarts.....forever.....until the heat death of the universe when the only thing that remains is the black emptiness of space, you and a Walmart

02:13 <Schism> Egh, I already hated cards.

02:13 <Schism> always, that is.

02:14 <Cepheid> Heh.

02:14 <Cepheid> The reason I don't mind it is that it's repetitive.  Repetitive work doesn't bore me, nor does it bother me.

02:14 <Schism> You had to play solitaire with the darned things because customers would always always ALWAYS put them back in the wrong spot.

02:14 <Cepheid> While everyone else apparently goes insane.

02:14 <Cepheid> Yeah, we don't do that.

02:14 <Cepheid> We just scan each, and every, individual card, one by one.

02:14 <Schism> I was okay with that, honestly... ah  Huh.  That does simplify things.

02:15 <NialloftheNine> A good way to make the time pass and usually you can think about something else cause its easy or just zone out.

02:15 <Schism> Meanwhile, you can also play solitaire in your head.

02:15 <Cepheid> I'm not a solitaire type person.

02:15 <Cepheid> I just start singing songs in my head or problem solving.

02:16 <Schism> I do the same thing while I'm walking down the street: start writing situations in my head.

02:16 <Cepheid> And occasionally trying to drive my co-workers insane with the Song That Never Ends.

02:16 *** Joins: Librarian (Librarian@Pony-n4k.qq1.207.187.IP)

02:16 <NialloftheNine> Welcome Librarian!

02:16 <Schism> Please tell me you don't actually do that.  I like you, I'd hate to kill you.

02:16 <Librarian> hello

02:16 <Cepheid> I do actually do that, yes.  Very rarely though

02:17 <Cepheid> Usually when things get unbelievably quiet.

02:17 <Librarian> i have a fantastically bad problem

02:17 <Schism> Okay, I'll only very rarely kill you.

02:17 <Cepheid> I'll just start singing the song.

02:17 <NialloftheNine> Whats the proble?

02:17 <NialloftheNine> problem*

02:17 <NialloftheNine> Welcome Not-Renny

02:17 * Not-Renny licks Cepheid

02:17 <Schism> Of course, Cephy, there's a problem.  We've both worked retail for entirely too long, we already know where all the best weapons are stored.

02:17 <Not-Renny> Hellos, NialloftheNine!

02:17 <Librarian> bunch of them

02:17 <Cepheid> The main issue I have with Walmarts is that my experience with them has revealed a staggeringly large number of people who just stand around and do nothing at all.

02:18 * Not-Renny licks Librarian too.

02:18 <Schism> Cepheid: Let alone facing.

02:18 <Cepheid> Nothing like calling "Store help, please!" and getting no response after four or five tries.

02:18 <Not-Renny> That sounds like a management problem more than anything.

02:18 <Cepheid> Leading to us just scanning a similar product and moving on.  If the store doesn't want to do their job, we'll half-flank ours.

02:18 <Librarian> my father is sick, we are in financial problems, and i have the pressure of trying to promote the goddess forsaken business

02:18 <Schism> If it weren't against the rules, there are store phones all through...

02:19 <Cepheid> And I know how to use them, yes.

02:19 <Librarian> i have no idea what to do

02:19 <Cepheid> But yeah, the problem is we need the department people.

02:19 * Not-Renny licks Librarian more

02:19 <Cepheid> The problem is most common in Shoes.

02:19 <NialloftheNine> Im sorry to hear that Librarian. :(

02:19 <Schism> Librarian: Wish I could offer anything to help beyond hope...

02:19 <Not-Renny> I would pray but that is just meh Librarian. Silly religious me

02:19 * NialloftheNine hugs Librarian

02:19 <Cepheid> Last Walmart I did, the people who worked that department literally stood around in a circle at a nearby walkway intersection and just chattered for the whole time.

02:19 <Schism> Meh, a prayer isn't harmful.

02:20 <Librarian> i also have to deal with a lot of insults

02:20 <Librarian> and being called useless all the time

02:20 <Schism> Cepheid: Heh.  I find that when you ping 'Store Manager to Shoes' or the like, then the rest of the team start getting veeeeerrrry helpful.

02:20 <Cepheid> After several attempts to get them to work with us, my manager just said "Don't call for Store Help.  If you find an item without a tag, or some other problem, just scan a similar-looking item and move on."

02:21 <Librarian> im also supposed to create and recreate a history to see if i get a real job

02:21 <Librarian> on writing

02:21 <Librarian> i hate my life at the moment

02:21 <Cepheid> Heh.

02:21 <Cepheid> I should go and get some sleep.

02:22 <NialloftheNine> Well rant all ya need Librarian, everypony has those days/times

02:22 <Schism> Librarian: Do you mean a resume?  And yeah, a lot of us... honestly have had those issues.

02:23 <Librarian> i mean a novellete

02:23 <Librarian> the whole undertake thing gave me a new perspective

02:23 <Schism> OH!  You mean in writing.  Hmm.

02:23 <Librarian> it works as a resume

02:23 <Librarian> because i might get a job at a publisher

02:24 <Librarian> but in this conditions, how I'm i supposed to do it?

02:24 <Schism> Eh, try writing something smaller.  A vignette, or series thereof.

02:24 <NialloftheNine> Very cool, what are you gonna write it about?

02:24 <Schism> Tighten your stories, make sure that they have a start and end, make sure that they are complete and have a point to them...

02:25 <NialloftheNine> And take it one day at a time, prioritize everything and try not to get overwhelmed. If you can knock down some easy goals each day it should help you keep your spirits up and feel accomplished.

02:25 <Librarian> its about a sarcastic mage having to deal with preventing the worlds end

02:25 <Schism> Remember also that professional writing is not the same thing as writing fanfic, even if many other betas and I think it should be.  You WILL get shot down on several points, you WILL have someone say, 'this part doesn't work, change it.'

02:26 <Librarian> basically my own personality plus magic

02:26 <Schism> Ask your editors for clarification, if you're not sure what you mean.  Ask for information on the changes they request.  And for the love of Eris, make the protagonist a little different from you at least.

02:26 <NialloftheNine> Sounds funny, ill proof read and give feedback if ya like Librarian ;)

02:26 <Librarian> its in spanish owo

02:26 <Schism> what they mean*

02:27 <NialloftheNine> Well then im useless ;P

02:27 <Librarian> the protagonist is kinda an ideal version of me

02:27 <Librarian> not in a mary sue way

02:28 <Librarian> its what i would like to be , not what i am

02:28 <Schism> Yes, well.  Before we continue, I ... am going to ask that you take this test.  http://www.springhole.net/writing/marysue.htm

02:28 <Librarian> my ideal self is a sarcastic rincewind

02:29 <Schism> You don't want your ideal self as a protagonist.

02:29 <Librarian> have i showed you my undertake fic?

02:29 <Librarian> undertale

02:33 <Surreal_Nightmares> My CPU is underperforming.

02:34 <Schism> Then... while your character might be you, and while 'writing what you know' is a good idea... don't lionize them, don't make them imperfect.  If an editor tells you, 'this needs a change', listen to them anyway...

02:34 <Schism> Ahem.  Don't make them imperfect for the sake of imperfection.

02:35 <Tirek> Unless you're doing a comedy and you know how to play that imperfection to humorous effect.

02:36 <Tirek> Without completely overdoing it, of course.

02:36 <Schism> Now that would be fun, granted.

02:36 <Tirek> So, two of my friends have agreed to play GURPS with me as the GM.

02:37 <Tirek> And we decided to have a digital age era game with a buddy cop theme and loosely inspired by Sam and Max.

02:38 <Librarian> I'm apparently funny, so a pratchett like style suits me

02:38 <Tirek> I think you recommended that to me already.

02:38 <Librarian> i would not dare say i can be like him

02:38 <Schism> I did, and I recommended it because it's great writing, with loveable characters and a sense of dark comedy which you just can't get away from.

02:39 <Schism> Buddy Cop movie with a Lovecraftian bent in a pony world.

02:39 <Tirek> I see.

02:39 <Tirek> Maybe worth a read.

02:39 <Schism> With film noir elements.

02:40 <Schism> Bit more blood, but sounds about right.

02:40 <Librarian> buddy  cop a la lovecraft

02:40 <Librarian> imma add that somewhere

02:40 <Tirek> Well, Max transformed into Cthulhu.

02:40 <Schism> He wasn't already?

02:40 <Tirek> Point.

02:41 <Tirek> Well, his superego threw a hissy fit and his psychic/psychotic powers went out of control.

02:41 <Schism> Ah, well, that makes more sense.  Also, Tirek, this is my favourite GURPS book.  http://www.sjgames.com/gurps/books/infiniteworlds/

02:41 <Tirek> I have a PDF copy of Infinite Worlds, I'm sure.

02:42 <Tirek> I have damned near every book, I think.

02:42 * Schism nods. "Probably not so viable in these circumstances, but well worth reading. Gotta lot of neat little items in it, too."

02:42 <Tirek> Well, I'm sure Infinite Worlds could be useful inspiriation.

02:42 <Tirek> Considering I'm not going to be too serious in the campaign, anything is possible.

02:43 <Schism> Adds a few more items, if nothing else.

02:43 <Schism> And an alt-world would be fun to bounce through.

02:43 <Tirek> Right.

02:43 <Tirek> I'm intending to have a low-magic setting, with some occasional exceptions.

02:44 <Tirek> The PCs won't have direct access to magic, but may find a magical artifact or two across their missions.

02:44 <Tirek> That's on the PCs.

02:44 <Librarian> a gurp

02:44 <Schism> GURPS, meanwhile, is the Generic Universal RolePlay System.

02:44 <Tirek> m

02:45 <Schism> The m is separate, it's DLC.

05:38 <Vulpor> MLP of course

05:38 <Thelema5> I'm not sure I understand Summerween.  The actual holiday, Halloween, is a harvest celebration which takes place then the crops have produced their offspring, and are ready to die.  It's a time of mourning because we sacrifice the old crop for it's seed.  Summerween seems contrary to this, celebrating the death of the crop before it produces seed.

05:39 <Vulpor> Thelema5 its in the show Gravity Falls

05:39 <Vulpor> look into dat show

05:40 <Vulpor> The town simply loves Halloween so much that they celeberate it twice a year

05:40 <Thelema5> the first is a celebration of rejuvination, the second a celebration of annihilation

05:40 <Surreal_Nightmares> Lol.

05:40 <Thelema5> I get that, but it's a harvest festival so it has to follow natural cycles.

05:40 <Vulpor> its a cartoon lol

05:43 <Vulpor> This episode takes place on Friday, June 22, 2012 as seen on Stan's calendar. It is notable that the summer solstice (Midsummer or St. John's Night/Day) falls on or around this day each year; in many European countries this day was associated with the same sort of witchery and tricks that modern Americans associate with Halloween (though due to cha

05:43 <Vulpor> nges in the calendar the day was formerly calculated on the 23rd/24th).

08:32 * unicodingunicorn curls up under the warm embrace of the wing

08:32 <Schism> Tirek: ... wait.  Are you stealing this plot from Super Solvers?

08:33 <Tirek> I don't know, am I?

08:33 * Surreal_Nightmares nuzzles unicodingunicorn and then lays their head on them.

08:33 <Tirek> Also, apparently I cannot send the following message "Am I?"

08:33 <Tirek> It trips up the capslock filter.

08:33 <Surreal_Nightmares> Rip.

08:33 <Schism> Well, is the genius in question, who has stolen the Museum of Natural History, a half-bald man in a labcoat with a shock of brown hair?

08:33 *** Quits: Reia (Reia@TheCowPony) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

08:34 <Tirek> No, its a gingerbread man named Harvy who has a lisp.

08:34 <Schism> I think you're fine.

08:34 <Tirek> Well, stutter.

08:35 <Tirek> Hell, lisp and stutter. That ought to be enough.

08:35 <Schism> So long as you don't have five robots roaming through the Natural History section once the protagonists find it, that is.

08:35 <Tirek> Nah, Harvy has an army of anthropomorphized candy.

08:35 <Schism> "Darn, there goes that plan."

08:35 <Schism> Hah.

08:36 *** Joins: Reia (Reia@TheCowPony)

08:36 <Schism> In the Super Solvers games, in one case, Mortimer J. Maxwell decides to steal an entire school, the one in which he grew up.  Protagonist investigates, has to find him before midnight.

08:36 <Tirek> I just need to figure out what Harvy's motivation is.

08:36 <Tirek> Ah, I see.

08:37 *** Pi is now known as Pi_Away

08:37 <Schism> Tirek: Well, obvious those fools laughed at his dissertation, /laughed/ when he provided a Darwinian study of the evolution of candied men.

08:37 <Schism> obviously*

08:37 <Tirek> Don't you mean dessertation?

08:38 <Tirek> :^)

08:38 <Schism> Thank you, I knew I was missing something.

08:38 <Tirek> Nah, I need a hook for another story and have them all linked somehow.

08:38 <Schism> Well, what other villains have you?

08:38 <Tirek> I will say Harvy is based loosely on Greg from Secret Squirrel.

08:39 <Tirek> I only just started planning one campaign.

08:40 <Tirek> I need to figure out an overarching story that loosely ties these otherwise unrelated threads together into something pressing.

08:40 <Schism> How about a supervillain (or ULTRAvillain) who keeps creating monsters, but those monsters all escape his clutches and go off to plan their own evil lives?

08:40 <Tirek> Sure.

08:41 <Schism> Sooner or later he WILL create the ultimate creation, and then the world will be in imminent doom.

08:41 <Tirek> However those monsters also know they were supposed to do something, and decide to do it for their own gain rather than the gain of their master. Such as collect artifacts or something.

08:41 <Schism> Or taking over the museum because they were offended by the Home Ec courses offered there.

08:42 <Schism> But makes sense.  Sounds kind of like Robot Masters too, but the idea is as old as dirt.

08:58 <Schism> I think you're correct.  That's kind of inconsequential, though.

08:58 <Tirek> He was always great.

08:59 <Tirek> Probably the best part of the show.

09:14 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about Rabi-Ribi OST: Final Boss Battle #3

09:16 <Tirek> Now that I'm thinking about it, I should probably avoid piling on the weird.

09:16 <Schism> Whatever do you mean?  Where we're going, we don't need brains.

09:16 <Tirek> I should probably start mundane with a hint of not-quite-right and build up overtime.

09:17 <Tirek> Hmm.

09:17 <Schism> That tends to be a little better, yes.  Let things build up to a natural conclusion.  Well, an unnatural one.

09:18 <Schism> So start with a bit of The Simpsons, go to Gravity Falls, and then you can start getting weird.

09:18 <Tirek> I still want to use "Stealing an entire museum" as a plot hook though.

09:18 <Schism> Carmen Sandiego is your go-to there.

09:18 <Schism> Or at least some other absolutely /fabulous/ thief in a fedora and trenchcoat.

09:19 <Schism> Heck, the whole thing could be someone giving life to modern-day psychopomps.

09:20 <Schism> "These are the gods of a new age.  They just needed someone to give them a spark."

09:20 <Tirek> The Carmen-Sandiego-alike also turns out to be one of the good guys, even if they're operating outside the law.

09:20 *** Pi_Away is now known as Pi

09:20 <Schism> So less Carmen Sandiego, more Lupin III.

09:21 <Tirek> Who is Lupin III again? I think it was mentioned.

09:21 <Schism> Arsene Lupin III, a master thief who was Carmen Sandiego before she ever existed.

09:21 <Tirek> Ah.

09:21 <Schism> Mind, Arsene Lupin also fits.

09:27 <NewNickName> i might be wrong but isnt this a kw 1 tank

09:27 <Schism> Well, police chief or detective or investigator, or something.

09:27 <Tirek> Only if he's based on Mr. Hollywood.

09:28 <Schism> I see no problem with that.

09:28 <Schism> NewNickName, might well be...

09:28 <Schism> Put a little of Detective Gumshoe in there, too.

09:29 <Tirek> I'm not familiar enough with Wright.

09:30 <NewNickName> it may also be a kw 85

09:30 <Tirek> Major recurring helpful NPCS, that is.

09:31 <Schism> That's true.  It wouldn't do to have them shoot the guy on the second mission because he keeps taking all the credit.

09:31 <Tirek> I'm sure I could make it work.

09:31 <Tirek> I just need to see how, first.

09:31 <Tirek> If nothing else he'd probably end up being their "Lorn: The Friend For Life".

09:31 <Schism> The guy you hate, but can't live without?

09:32 <Tirek> Basically.

09:32 <Schism> Also, the Phoenix Wright games have gotten a... little better about that, but they are still visual novels, so eh.

09:32 <Tirek> Yeah, that's my point. I don't like VNs.

09:33 <Tirek> Hell, I don't like reading too much. I can't keep focused.

09:36 <Tirek> Of course, especially because this will occasionally have black comedy elements.

09:36 <Schism> Then you absolutely MUST rewatch 'Clue'.

09:37 <Schism> [[ But this is the way it REALLY happened... ]]

09:39 <Schism> ... if, mind you, you haven't watched 'Clue' yet, I don't know what to say beyond 'DO SO.'

09:40 <Tirek> If you got an a means for me to watch it, then I'll see if I could dedicate some time to it.

09:40 <Schism> This is one exception I highly suggest you make.  It stars Tim Curry, amongst other less-notable personalities...

09:41 <Tirek> Everything floats down here.

09:43 <Schism> It's possibly the first movie based off a board game, and certainly the best one out there.

09:45 <Schism> That having been said, it /skewers/ the murder mystery genre, and does it with style.

10:32 <Schism> Hihi, Lunatic.  Have a Clue.

10:33 * Electron is pinged

10:33 <Electron> Huh?

10:33 * Schism gives LunaticHell a rope, a pipe wrench, and a knife.

10:33 <LunaticHell> Oh a puzzle?

10:33 <Schism> Not quite.  You might know the game, in your parts, as Cluedo.

10:34 <Schism> Electron: No worries, go back to sleep.

10:34 <LunaticHell> The libary? With a knife?

10:34 <Electron> But I am awake.

10:35 * unicodingunicorn aims a tranquiliser gun at Electron

10:35 <LunaticHell> I was tempted to use the wrench to combine the knife with a pipe to form a spear...or the rope with the knife to craft a ninja weapon, the knife-rope!

10:35 <Schism> LunaticHell: Or, at least, that's /one/ way it could have happened...

10:35 * Electron flails

10:35 <Schism> Electron: I was just suggesting that LunaticHell murdered the Computer with the Pipe Wrench in the Library.

10:36 <LunaticHell> I've never played the game, but I know a lil bit about it.

10:36 <LunaticHell> Also: imagine Cluedo/CoC

10:36 <Schism> LunaticHell, it was the subject of an absolutely /fantastic/ movie in the '80s, with the most prominent character played by one Tim Curry.

10:37 <Electron> Why would he murder the computer anyway, Schism?

10:37 <Schism> Because it... displeased him.

10:37 <LunaticHell> I've murdered Mister Jefferson in the libary with a ritual knife to summon the ancient god that is Astharoth to the realm of the mortals.

10:37 <Schism> Isn't that what all Call of Cthulhu games are, anyway?

10:37 <LunaticHell> Point taken.

10:38 <Schism> Mind, I wouldn't mind playing a very silly parody game thereof, where the perpetrator is a shoggoth in a bear suit.

10:39 <LunaticHell> hehe

10:39 <Schism> I think it bodes well for us as a race that Lovecraft is a joke these days.  I suspect that if anyone saw Cthulhu in this day and age, they'd walk right up, and say, 'Nice costume, is that latex?'

10:40 <LunaticHell> Or playing Cluedo with the cast of "Nyaruko: Crawling with Love".

10:40 <Schism> Please tell me that's not an actual thing.

10:40 <LunaticHell> You don't know?

10:40 <LunaticHell> hahahahahahaha you will find this very amusing.

10:40 <Schism> I don't want to know.  There's cosmic horror stories, and then there's the idea that people like that are walking amongst us every day.

10:44 <Schism> I like how they're reading a paper with the Yellow Sign on it.

10:45 <LunaticHell> Quality foreshadowing.

10:45 <Tirek> Alright, I have a new idea for a starting campaign. I'll save the museum one for their second case.

10:45 <Schism> I am somewhat less thrilled by the idea that they turned the Cthulhu Mythos into a harem anime.

10:45 <LunaticHell> I love how Nyarlathotep's weapon of choise is...

10:45 <LunaticHell> ...a crowbar.

10:45 <Schism> Tirek: Oh?

10:46 <LunaticHell> Schism: Actually it's more of a parody of a harm anime.

10:46 <LunaticHell> And technically it's a more of a love(craft) triangle

10:46 <Schism> Oh, fine.  Still disturbing.

10:47 <LunaticHell> That's kinda the point.

10:47 <LunaticHell> It's just as weirdly mind melting as Lovecraft's original...just in a different way.

10:48 <Schism> I'm going to have to find some way to watch this, aren't I?

10:48 <Tirek> Some guys with forged permits try to dig a new subway system. Mind you the city is based on Chicago, so you can already see why this is a bad idea.

10:48 <LunaticHell> It actually does have intresting characters, a funny plot and nice pacing.

10:48 <Tirek> Because the PCs aren't necessarily real law enforcement, the guys call on them when people start disappearing.

10:48 <Schism> Tirek: ... Yes, but please do go on.  That already sounds like it's going to end in a HILARIOUS way.

10:51 <Tirek> So the PCs have to investigate these disappearances quickly before  the city finds out there's illegal construction work with likely untrained workers.

10:52 <Tirek> I've got to work out what's causing the disappearances.

10:52 <LunaticHell> Huh

10:52 <Schism> You know full well that there's an obvious answer, Tirek.

10:53 <Tirek> Hippies?

10:53 <Schism> No, turtles with sais and other Japanese weapons fighting rats and other mutants.

10:53 <LunaticHell> Maybe a cult trying to find sacrifices for their god's return?

10:53 <Tirek> Too early for that.

10:53 <Schism> Except that they're /actual/ turtles.

10:53 <Schism> Oh, fine.

10:53 <LunaticHell> Something about magic?

10:53 <Tirek> Too early for the cult thing, I mean.

10:54 <LunaticHell> Wait, better idea.

10:54 <Tirek> I want it to be weird, but not exactly obvious.

10:54 <Tirek> Also, it takes place in the mid 70s, so hippies have to be involved in something sooner or later.

10:54 <Schism> Oh, okay.  Hmm.  Could be sewer crocodiles.  Those are always fun.

10:54 <Tirek> But there's no sewer yet. Just illegal digging.

10:54 <Tirek> Oh, wait, nevermind.

10:55 <Tirek> Yes, sewers are a thing. I'm a little tired.

10:55 <LunaticHell> The workers actually were hired to build a occult construct, the people abducting them want to combat whoever is ordering the build.

10:55 <Schism> Something which the city did decades ago led to the burial of some strange artifacts which are infecting the water around them, leading to the creation of giant mutant animals.

10:55 <Tirek> I misconstrued it for subway.

10:55 <Schism> Including a giant mutated rabbit.

10:55 <LunaticHell> The same who hired you.

10:55 <Tirek> Too obvious.

10:56 <Tirek> The rabbit, I mean.

10:56 <Schism> If you do NOT include a giant mutated Mr. Bunny Rabbit in your campaign, Tirek, I will disown you.

10:56 <Tirek> The PCs already know its Sam and Max inspired.

10:56 <LunaticHell> The twist being: you're working for the bad guys.

10:56 <Schism> Wait, I wasn't even talking about Sam, I was talking the devil bunny from the Holy Grail.

10:56 <Schism> Or, well, maybe Angel Bunny.

10:56 <Tirek> Well, duh, you're hired by people with false permits digging a subway bound to fail due to flooding and structural damage.

10:57 <LunaticHell> Point taken.

10:57 <LunaticHell> Maybe they're using the construction to secretly dig something out?

10:57 <Schism> Tirek: Are you going to involve the Mole Men in this subterfuge?

10:57 <Tirek> Nah.

10:58 <Tirek> Okay, secretly digging something up.

10:58 <Tirek> I like how I have a personal inspiration squad at my disposal.

10:58 <Schism> What can I say?  What we do, we do well.

10:59 <Schism> Besides, you've already brought up Sam and Max, that just means we can give you our wackiest ideas.

10:59 <Tirek> Those get saved for later. I want to stay a bit on the tamer side for the first adventure.

10:59 <Tirek> Slowly build up wackiness over a series of adventures.

11:00 <Tirek> I'm breaking them down into smaller scale games with an overarching plot.

11:00 <LunaticHell> The idea with the digging up also doubles as explaination how and why your PCs can find stuff in there.

11:00 <Schism> An episodic campaign.

11:00 <Tirek> So, this is something that could be finished in three sessions.

11:00 <Tirek> Yes, exactly.

11:00 <LunaticHell> A campain always needs a little loot for the PCs to be encouraged to keep on looking.

11:00 <Schism> "What is this thing?" "The Jersey Shore.  It's a coat that anyone can wear, made entirely of sand." "But what's it do?" "It makes you look like a jerk."

11:01 <Tirek> "I'll take twenty. It'll help boost my intimidation stat."

11:01 <LunaticHell> Tirek: Wanna know how you can effectively make the PCs torture themselves?

11:02 <Schism> "I know that I'd be intimidated by a giant dick."

11:02 <Schism> I'm sorry, that was a little much.

11:02 <Tirek> You're a bit excited, I see.

11:02 <Unixkitty> Yes it was.

11:02 <LunaticHell> Have the company reward them for retrieving "stuff", they will need to decide weather to keep what they found or trade it for something else from the company.

11:02 <Schism> Sorry about that.  I was... well, also sort of cribbing from the games.

11:08 <Tirek> So mysterious artifacts of Native American origin that have some sort of spiritual power rest below the City Inspired By Chicago.

11:08 <Tirek> And people disappeared trying to find them.

11:08 <Twilight`Sparkle> plot twist that they're actually native Australian.

11:08 <Schism> ... So Chicago is a giant Indian graveyard.

11:09 <Tirek> The paved Necropolis to put up a parking lot.

11:09 <Twilight`Sparkle> You know you want to portal them to Australia at one point.

11:09 <Twilight`Sparkle> It'll be the equivalent of the jaunt to the elemental planes.

11:09 <Tirek> Well, the TF2 equivalent of Austrailia, anyway.

11:09 <Schism> If you sing 'Parking Lot' for your players, I'm going to need you to stream that.

11:10 <Tirek> Schism, my singing voice is a weapon of mass destruction.

11:10 <Twilight`Sparkle> All the more reason..

11:10 <Schism> I reiterate my point.

11:10 <Tirek> Include me in your will.

11:11 <Schism> Gods alive, no, I'll include your firstborn son.

11:11 <NewNickName> does somepony here plays civilization 5

11:11 <Tirek> Fortunately, I shan't bear children.

11:11 <Tirek> They're too grizzly for me anyway.

11:12 <Schism> I figure that if one should appear, they'll be much more ready to take over the world anyway.  Why should I give my fortune to you when your progeny will do the job much better?

11:12 <Tirek> Because I intend to live forever.

11:12 <Tirek> And I will succeed, too.

11:12 <Schism> Everyone says that, but keep that hope alive.

11:12 <Twilight`Sparkle> I have played that game, yes.

11:14 <NewNickName> @Twilight`Sparkle

11:14 <NewNickName> you know some awsome mods ?

11:14 <Twilight`Sparkle> sorry, haven't messed about with them much.

11:14 <NewNickName> oh ok

11:15 <Schism> Tirek: I think we're weirding them out now.

11:15 <Twilight`Sparkle> why would you say this?

11:15 <Tirek> Let us continue, consume their sanity.

11:15 <Schism> Nah, too tired, we can continue later.  Let us consume it /slowly/, savour the taste.

11:15 <Twilight`Sparkle> you are silly in your assumptions.

11:16 <Tirek> Anyway, the disappearing people angered The Ancestors by touching sacred relics, and thus ghosts of Native Americans started roaming the caves in search of tresspassers.

11:16 <Tirek> And there, complete thought is complete.

11:17 <Twilight`Sparkle> so what's the macguffin that fixes the problem?

11:17 <Schism> How about /destroying/ sacred relics, through excavation?

11:17 <Tirek> Better.

11:17 <Tirek> Of course, the boss man with the illegal permit and underqualified construction and demolition men omits the haunting part.

11:17 <Tirek> Actually, no, I kind of like the idea that boss man is looking for these relics all along.

11:18 <Tirek> And the Chicago-inspired-city subway system was a cover-up.

11:18 <Schism> Hmmmm, so the last sacred relic under non-Chicago might be something they can't quite get into without certain tools, like the heart of a virgin and the mind of an absolute imbecile.

11:19 <Tirek> Nah, the quest mostly revolves around exorcising the ghosts.

11:19 <Schism> Oh, much easier.

11:19 <Twilight`Sparkle> We need a priest!

11:20 <Schism> "Do we have a holocaust cloak?" "Right here." "Why didn't you provide that in our list of assets?"

11:20 <Tirek> And then after that, the players can choose to arrest the bossman and not get paid, or keep quiet about what happened there and get paid a pretty penny.

11:20 <Tirek> I'm expecting the latter to happen.

11:20 <Schism> I'm betting the bossman is not the primary antagonist.

11:20 <Tirek> Oh, no. Of course not.

11:21 <Tirek> Infact, he'll be completely unrelated to the primary antagonist.

11:21 <Twilight`Sparkle> That, of course, is the mayor.

11:21 <Tirek> Nah.

11:21 <Schism> Shhhhh.

11:21 <Schism> It's actually the governor, but don't tell anyone.

11:21 <Tirek> If you choose to arrest him, the artifacts end up in the museum, and then the museum is stolen.

11:21 <Twilight`Sparkle> The gubernator?

11:21 <Tirek> The whole museum.

11:22 <Tirek> If you don't arrest him, you find out later that bossman was murdered and robbed of the artifacts.

11:22 <Schism> "What I don't get, is why would they leave all this excellent lead piping?"

11:22 <Schism> I'm sorry, I'm in a Sam and Max mood for obvious reasons.

11:22 <Twilight`Sparkle> "It's a nefarious plot to cause people lead poisoning."

11:22 <Twilight`Sparkle> I am up way too early.

11:22 <Tirek> "You crack me up, little buddy."

11:23 <Twilight`Sparkle> grapple.

11:23 <Schism> I knew someone else read 'A Girl and her Fed'.

11:23 * Lumindia nomfs Tirek

11:24 <Tirek> The museum plays an important role in discovering how to do the exorcising ritual in accordance to the Native American customs.

11:25 <Schism> Tirek: There's the thing.  The protagonists turn in their boss, the artifacts go into the museum.  The protagonists /don't/ turn in the boss, he winds up arrested for tax fraud, and the artifacts STILL go into the museum.

11:25 <Tirek> Fair.

11:26 <Schism> Then they get contacted by a third party who asks them to plan out a heist, and right after they finish planning the whole thing in meticulous detail, the museum itself gets stolen.

11:26 <Twilight`Sparkle> Along with the heist.

11:26 <Schism> Yes!

11:27 <Tirek> Alternatively, I could have it that there's some artifacts in the museum already so the museum gets stolen anyway. Bossman just dies in option two.

11:27 <Schism> I'unno, it's zanier when nobody actually dies, least of all in an offscreen manner.

11:28 <Tirek> I suppose.

11:28 <Schism> Or they have to die in a suitable way.  Like they're walking down the street and they get crushed by a falling crane.

11:29 <Schism> ... and let's make it the bird sort.  "That's the largest crane I've ever seen."

11:30 <Tirek> I like having dissonance pop up occasionally. Believable events occuring just off screen from the PCs, like a routine execution-style murder, while crazy things seem to follow the protags.

11:30 <Twilight`Sparkle> bubble of weirdness.

11:30 <Schism> Okay, that makes a lot of sense.  And is a lot more fun.

11:31 <Schism> So they're interrogating a subject, and suddenly a bird falls out of the sky, plows into the subject.

11:31 <Schism> "... I think this bird was aimed."

11:32 * Lumindia steals Schism

11:32 * Schism rests in style in the Louvre.

11:33 <Tirek> "Well, hopefully it's a stool pidgeon, we've had no luck getting our suspect to talk yet."

11:33 <Tirek> Pigeon rather.

11:33 <Schism> "I wish.  It was dead on impact - it's an albatross inside his neck."

11:35 <Tirek> Dammit.

11:35 <Schism> I have absolutely nothing for which to apologize; you set yourself up for that one.

11:36 <Twilight`Sparkle> a near miss

11:36 <Schism> Hm.  Shall we take a breather and play either Path of Exile or, perhaps, Hedgewars?

11:36 <Lumindia> ahahaha

11:36 <Schism> (I'm fine with a straightforward artillery battle in Hedgewars.)

11:36 <Tirek> Nah. I need to run to the grocery soon, and then after that, bed.

11:37 <Schism> Eh, fair enough.  It is 7 AM, or thereabouts; I should probably do something similar.

11:37 *** Quits: Azure_mobile (Azure@Pony-tbgrcj.ar71.qmlf.04c3.2601.IP) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

11:38 <LunaticHell> I needs more coffee

11:38 <LunaticHell> Much more coffee

11:38 <Tirek> That and considering I've gotten really into planning out this "episode", I'd probably just continue focusing on making it work.

11:39 <Schism> I think so far you've got a darned good start.  Though I'd avoid GURPS for this one.

11:39 <Tirek> Too late.

11:39 <Schism> Not at all.  This sounds more like it'd work with the FATE system.

11:39 <Schism> Which is more geared towards storytelling than mechanics.

11:40 <Twilight`Sparkle> why not FATLA?

11:40 <Twilight`Sparkle> *FATAL

11:41 <Schism> We don't talk about that here.

11:41 <Schism> Plus, you can take the character sheets and just say, 'okay, I'm simplifying these, here's what you've got now', and get the PCs into sheets which give them a wider range of motion.

11:41 <Schism> Also also, only 4d6 per roll.

11:41 <Schism> Well, 4d3, but eh.

11:42 <Tirek> We're all already familiar with GURPS, as simple as FATE may be, I'd rather stick to something we're already comfortable with.

11:42 <Schism> Well, so long as it works for everyone.

11:42 <Tirek> We've all played GURPS and some of us DMed it already.

11:43 <Tirek> If it doesn't, I'll consider FATE.

11:43 <Schism> How many sanity points did you lose while DM'ing?

11:43 * LunaticHell hands Twilight`Sparkle 100 100 sided dice "you go figure that out"

11:43 <Tirek> I didn't DM yet.

11:43 <Schism> Okay, how many sanity points do you think THEY lost while DM'ing?

11:43 <LunaticHell> Nope, not a typo.

11:43 <Tirek> Well, I was a problem player.

11:43 * Twilight`Sparkle pulls out a phone.

11:43 <Tirek> So I suspect a decent amount.

11:43 <LunaticHell> That's cheating. xD

11:43 <Schism> It seems like you're doing a lot better now.

11:44 <LunaticHell> Time to brew more coffee

11:44 <Tirek> I min-maxed, and created a character that was basically an impenetrable wall of defense.

11:44 <Schism> Mind you, if you stick with GURPS, I'm going to keep track of your SAN loss.

11:44 <Twilight`Sparkle> 4817, LunaticHell

11:44 <Tirek> He couldn't do much in combat, but he was almost incapable of being damaged.

11:45 <Schism> Eh, we've all minmaxed.  A good GM knows how to stop that.

11:45 <Tirek> He was so durable, the DM had to make monsters specifically to fight me, and that almost lead to several full party wipes (save myself. )

11:45 <Schism> When the iron wall is the only surviving character, that does qualify as a TPK.

11:46 <Twilight`Sparkle> War. War never changes. Except that's bullcrap, because war always changes, who are we kidding.

11:46 <Tirek> My character also was 3 feet tall, wore a business suit and a mask caracaturing Bill Clinton.

11:47 <Schism> Anyway, this sounds more like it's going to be a fun little adventure as opposed to a combat-focused scenario, so I think you're going to do just fine, Tirek.

11:47 <Tirek> Yeah, combat will play a role, but I do want to focus more on puzzles, clue finding, and things of that nature.

11:48 <Schism> Please, take notes; this sounds like a really fun campaign.

11:48 <Tirek> Of course.

11:48 <Tirek> I'll see if I could record it.

11:49 <Schism> That would be great!  Also, because it's a murder mystery (or set thereof), please see if you can throw a little Maniac Mansion in there.

11:50 <Schism> Or at least some Grim Fandango.

11:50 <Schism> I fully expect to hear that you've got the protagonists into a casino hotel at some point.

11:52 <Schism> (I expect that all you need to do is say the words 'casino hotel' at some point and they'll make a beeline straight for it.)

12:11 <Tirek> For the episode, I want it to be pretty contained.

12:14 <Tirek> etc etc.

12:17 <LunaticHell> Ooooh please do name one of them "Alexander"

12:18 <LunaticHell> If you want to be mean to your PCs, you can use it as clever forshadowing.

12:19 <LunaticHell> Little known fact: "Edward Alexander" is the birth name of Aleister Browley.

12:19 <Schism> Crowley.

12:19 <LunaticHell> What typo xD

12:19 <Tirek> We're not opening the gates of hell just yet.

12:20 <Tirek> Just to the spirit realm of the Native Americans.

12:20 <Chaosweaver> He was totally a bro though, amirite?

12:20 <LunaticHell> It can be an early forshadowing.

12:20 <LunaticHell> Totally.

12:20 <Schism> Alexander Browley is the guy who escaped from Hell only to invent the monobrow.

12:20 <LunaticHell> I thought Crowley was the ruler of hell.

12:20 <Schism> He returned shortly thereafter, his work complete.

12:20 <Tirek> I assume that's how Burnside came to be, as well.

12:21 <Tirek> Call him Edward Browley.

12:21 <Tirek> Ala Ed, Edd, and Eddy.

12:21 <LunaticHell> Eddy Bro.

12:21 <Schism> That actually sounds like a darned fine murder victim for your campaign.

12:22 <Schism> "He fell onto this roulette table.  Pierced his heart, believe it or not." "Where did he leap from?" "From what we can tell..." *looks up*  "The chandelier."

12:22 <LunaticHell> One that'll come back in later chapters to bite your PCs in the behind if they screw up investigations.

12:22 <LunaticHell> I~ wanna swing~ from the chandelier~ from the chandelier~

12:23 <Schism> LunaticHell, Tirek's running GURPS, not CoC.  Close, though...

12:24 <Tirek> CoC related shenanigans may come along.

12:24 <Tirek> There is a Lovecraft book for GURPS.

12:25 <LunaticHell> It'll be fun to keep em guessing who might be secretly a follower of the old ones, in later chapters.

12:25 <Tirek> Oh, I don't have the Cthulhu book.

12:26 <LunaticHell> You should know the usual suspects like Hastur and Cuth...I won't even try to spell is name right.

17:21 * Schism bounces off sofapone, and lands on Librarian with a hug.

17:21 <Schism> LunaticHell: Sofapone's back!

17:21 <LunaticHell> FF9(steam) just had a 2.3 GB worth of "updates", a third of the entire game's volume. What the heck?

17:21 <Schism> Maybe it was the last third of the game?  Weird.

17:22 <LunaticHell> Can't be, I'm on the last third of the game.

17:22 * Schism does, however, offer ThatAnonPony a hug too.

17:22 <LunaticHell> No update notes not yet available.

17:22 <Schism> Perhaps it was an FMV thing, who can say?

17:22 <LunaticHell> A bonus dungeon would be about that size, though...that would be awesome.

17:23 <Schism> So, have you completed the game in sufficient time to collect the Ultimate Weapon?

17:23 * ThatAnonPony declines Schism's offer of a hug. Accepts a snuggle instead!

17:23 <LunaticHell> hahahaha no

17:23 <Schism> I know, right?  :P

17:23 <LunaticHell> I dilly dallied 36 hours before I managed to beat HALF the game.

17:23 * Schism snuzzles. That's a suitable tradeoff, yes?

17:23 <Schism> LunaticHell, Yee!  Yeah, that'll do it.

17:23 *** Renny is now known as RennyWork

17:24 <Schism> What is it, 10 hours to get Excalibur II?

17:24 <LunaticHell> "Hey, have some free aditional content for the game that you loved enough to buy it a second time." If Square would pull that stunt, I'd love them forever.

17:24 <LunaticHell> 12 hours, I think.

17:24 <Schism> Still almost impossible.

17:24 <Schism> And yeah, some DLC would be very nice indeed.

17:25 <LunaticHell> Now that it is on steam, someone will find a way to trick the clock that doesn' include keeping the game running for 200 years for the internal clock to reset.

17:25 <LunaticHell> Also: Bravely Second doesn't only have Excalibur and Excalibur II...

17:25 <Schism> Not entirely difficult, just change the timestamp on the save file.

17:25 <LunaticHell> ...they even have Excalibur III.

17:26 <Schism> I guess they wanted to go above and beyond.

17:26 <LunaticHell> Spoiler: it's a knife

17:26 * Surreal_Nightmares noms on ThatAnonPony.

17:26 <Schism> Wait wait.  Is that, in fact, Excalipur, just taken to the Ultimate Blacksmith?

17:26 * Surreal_Nightmares noms on Schism and LunaticHell.

17:28 <wobniaR> Once i find your steam account I'll fix that

17:29 <LunaticHell> There is a class that can throw weapons, but you will retrieve them by either winning the battle or a skill, depening on when you need them back.

17:29 <wobniaR> And I'll slip in undertale and various trash games

17:29 <Schism> That's a bit more sane.  If you throw a weapon better than the enemy's, do they equip it?

17:29 <LunaticHell> VinylScratch: So Undertale is...like...burried under a mountain of other files?

17:30 <SugarWing> yeah

17:30 <VinylScratch> It's in my skype downloads - friend of mine sent me the .exe

17:30 <LunaticHell> Schism: *ahem* Zelda

17:30 <SugarWing> i found it free too

17:30 <SugarWing> we're pirates D:

17:30 <LunaticHell> Skyward sword *ahem*

17:30 <Schism> I have no wii.

17:30 <wobniaR> It's buried under 600 visual novel games

17:30 <Schism> Shut up.

17:31 <LunaticHell> In one boss battle, the boss can use your weapon against you.

17:31 <VinylScratch> lol

17:31 <Schism> Oh, that makes a bit more sense.

17:31 <LunaticHell> By deflecting it so it gets out of your hand and then picking it up by himself...of course this can also be used for a funny glitch.

17:32 <Schism> I'm reminded that at least one variant of Ganon can be enthralled by the fishing net.

17:32 <LunaticHell> If he throws it in a bad angle, the sword lands too close to the wall for him to pick up, thus making him endlessly walk against...the wall.

17:32 <Schism> And of course, Aghanim's curses can be deflected by the butterfly net.

17:33 <Schism> Yeah.

17:33 <LunaticHell> Yes, you can defeat him by the power of the net!

17:33 <LunaticHell> Nice catch, I say.

17:33 <Schism> Right, and it's the fishing rod that mesmerizes him.

17:34 <Surreal_Nightmares> Lolwut.

17:34 <LunaticHell> Maybe he's confused becourse he lived his life in a desert far away from fishes and fishing rods?

17:34 <Schism> Or hypnotized by the Gerudo, who are the real villains of the game.

17:34 <LunaticHell> Or...he also might be 25% fish himself.

17:34 <LunaticHell> Or that.

17:35 <LunaticHell> There was a huge Gerudo/Hylian war including a genocide.

17:35 <Surreal_Nightmares> The 25% is more fun though.

17:36 <LunaticHell> I'm imagining him standing in front of the rod, going "meep meep"

17:36 <LunaticHell> Maybe being the reincarnation of the god of destruction and evil destroyed part of his prefrontal cortex?

18:34 * VinylScratch uses 8.1, has no issue

18:34 <GentleFox> LunaticHell Oh har har har, It stops being funny after the 50th tanking receipt.

18:34 <LunaticHell> ...huh? Seems those puns are kinda...

18:34 <LunaticHell> ...taxing on you?

18:35 * VinylScratch sighs

18:35 <LunaticHell> [This one to drive it home, in a taxi that is]

18:35 <GentleFox> I swear to Celestia, I'll come and tickle you silly with my gentle whiskers.

18:35 <LunaticHell> hehe~

18:36 <LunaticHell> I'm looking forward to being...whisked away. :P

18:36 * Sour_Sweet paints GentleFox yellow.

18:36 <Sour_Sweet> Also by chance do you have an Indian accent? :D

18:36 <LunaticHell> Me or him?

18:37 <Sour_Sweet> Him of cause

18:37 <LunaticHell> I can try, though.

18:37 <ADragonHoarding> course

18:37 <LunaticHell> See? Even Tiamat has my back.

18:38 <LunaticHell> ...my spine is not a tooth pick. o. o

18:38 <GentleFox> No, I haven't. And I regret to inform you that taxis aren't yellow in germany. They're beige (RAL 1015, "Hellelfenbein"), which is regulatet in the BOKraft law.

18:38 <ADragonHoarding> Mounted on my wall.

18:39 <GentleFox> ... that's stuff you have to know to own a taxi business here.

18:39 * GentleFox rolls eyes

18:39 <LunaticHell> Never heard of that color, before.

18:39 <VinylScratch> HOW?

18:39 <ADragonHoarding> http://i.imgur.com/UAB3xLn.jpg

18:39 <LunaticHell> Is that even a word?

18:39 <VinylScratch> It is

18:39 <ADragonHoarding> He's not English native.

18:39 <VinylScratch> I know

18:39 <VinylScratch> :P

18:39 <ADragonHoarding> Beige is a shade of tan.

18:40 <LunaticHell> Not that word.

18:40 <VinylScratch> But he also hangs out with plenty of english

18:40 <LunaticHell> >Hellelfenbein

18:40 <VinylScratch> so it seems odd that it wouldn't crop up somewhere

18:40 * GentleFox blinks owlishly.

18:40 <LunaticHell> That word.

18:40 <ADragonHoarding> oh.

18:40 <VinylScratch> Aaah

18:41 <GentleFox> ... that's a pretty run-of-the-mill, german word. Derivative from "Elfenbein", which menas 'ivory'.

18:41 <GentleFox> One of the worst kind of colors out there, in my opinion.

18:42 <LunaticHell> It already sounds bad enough.

18:42 <LunaticHell> Never heard of that word, before, though.

18:43 <LunaticHell> So it's basically "yellow" like "alt rosa" is pink?

18:44 <GentleFox> it's a german word, you silly pony. Of course you didn't know it. You just know "Oktoberfest", "Brezeln", "Lederhosen", "Achtung", und "Stillgestanden" in german (assuming that you're one sterilized, standardized, scientificized owl).

18:44 <GentleFox> Yessss.

18:45 <GentleFox> ehem, not owl, american. I also retract sterilized.

18:45 <LunaticHell> GentleFox: Und was, bitte, willst du mir damit sagen? [What, pray tell, do you want to tell me with this?]

18:46 <GentleFox> That most native english speakers know just a few 'cool' german words and phrases?

18:46 <LunaticHell> >Assuming

18:47 <wobniaR> Drachenhauch

18:47 <GentleFox> If you're speaking a dialect of german, than you have NO excuse to not know Hellelfenbein. That's THE color. THE color.

18:47 <wobniaR> Achtung schmetterling

18:48 <wobniaR> Fräulein

18:48 <LunaticHell> And that should be my excuse, I do not speak any dialect of german, I speak clear and without any hint of dialect.

18:48 <GentleFox> There seems to be a broken pone. It screams random phrases at the top of it's lungs.

18:48 <LunaticHell> That's just wobniaR.

18:48 <wobniaR> That's the extent of my german vocabulary, thank you apollo justice

18:48 <GentleFox> Oh, okey.

18:49 <LunaticHell> wobniaR: You should watch the Phoenix Wright anime.

18:49 <ADragonHoarding> I just know certain snippets of lyrics from Alles Neu.

18:49 <ADragonHoarding> But even then only while I'm listening to it.

18:49 <LunaticHell> I know a lot from intensive studies, that's how I got more fluent in english.

18:49 <wobniaR> I'm considering it if they ever release it dubbed

18:50 <GentleFox> with dialect, I meant Österreichisch, Swizerduitz, etc. Everything that secretly wants to be Germany ^_°

18:50 <LunaticHell> About my german, it's hard for me to not speak it, since I'm born, raised and still live in the capitol of germany.

20:03 <GentleFox> ...I think so...

20:04 <Starflurry> Is their material hard to find?

20:04 <Starflurry> Oh wait do you mean actual physical copies? Because that makes sense, they weren't particularly popular while they were active.

20:04 <GentleFox> ... I don't know so... I'm not collecting records.

20:04 <GentleFox> Yesss.

20:05 <GentleFox> Wait, Strarflurry! Do you happen to listen to Prog?

20:05 <Starflurry> Ah, right. I don't know why anyone would really want physical copies of their material though, they're okay but they're really not anything spectacular. Then again, record collectors seem to be more obsessed with obscureness than actual quality of content.

20:06 <Starflurry> Oh, I listen to a bit of prog rock yes, mostly older stuff.

20:36 <Schism> Juuuust wondering.  I went by 'Theogrin' on a few places before.

20:36 <Gladiolus> in the end he died at age 71, below the UK national average.

21:17 <ADragonHoarding> End of season 5.

21:17 <TwilightSparkle> Season 5 was awesome!!!!!!

21:17 <Electron> There was a new song! I dig it.

21:17 <ADragonHoarding> Shmoopy dooble.

21:18 <TwilightSparkle> The magic inside

21:18 <Sour_Sweet> The concept of knowing that there is fresh pony and refusing to watch it is beyond me 6_9

21:19 <Electron> I know right.

21:19 <Electron> Some people just lost the spark.

21:19 <DataByte> when did you get into the fandom, Sour_Sweet?

21:19 <Electron> If you know what I mean.

21:19 <ADragonHoarding> Nah, for me it's a different thing.

21:19 <ADragonHoarding> I don't enjoy weekly installments.

21:19 <ADragonHoarding> I like to let these build and then watch a bunch all at once.

21:19 <DataByte> watch all at once - I know the feeling ;)

21:19 <Sour_Sweet> DataByte: Not 100ish years ago like many others.

21:20 <ADragonHoarding> Okay, it's season 6.

21:20 <DataByte> but wheeeeennn

21:20 <ADragonHoarding> The fandom as it is has only existed since sometime in season 1.

21:20 <Sour_Sweet> That's actually hard to tell since it was a process

21:20 <ADragonHoarding> So that's, like, five years max?

21:21 <DataByte> naw - FiM would be 5-6 years, but the original is much older

21:21 <TwilightSparkle> Lol

21:21 <wobniaR> There were mlp fans before G4, it's just become more popular with this gen

21:21 <Sour_Sweet> I guess I'm really into it since about 1.5 - 2 years maybe?

21:21 <DataByte> ok, so you're still new :)

21:21 <Sour_Sweet> Yeah relatively speaking

21:22 <DataByte> weekly installments died on me on my 3rd year

21:22 <DataByte> the only reason I'm really still in the fandom is for the people - this fandom is amazing :D

21:22 <DataByte> that, and fan fiction :3

21:22 <DataByte> and music

21:22 <DataByte> and art

21:23 <DataByte> and I could go on and on - this fandom has a huge creative output

21:23 <TwilightSparkle> All of the music is totally catchy

21:23 <Sour_Sweet> I don't enjoy fan fiction all that much. I do love the music (... created by the fandom) however

21:23 <DataByte> do you like reading?

21:24 <Sour_Sweet> That's a huge ... sometimes :P

21:24 <TwilightSparkle> Hey SS what's your favorite song thus far?

21:24 <Sour_Sweet> That's probably You'll Play Your Part

21:24 <DataByte> what do you like in books?

21:25 <Electron> OOOh, may I do this song, Sour_Sweet?

21:25 <DataByte> have you read RedWall? the Inheritance Cycle? (Eragon)? The Guardians of Ga'Hoole?

21:25 * DataByte LOVES books!

21:25 <TwilightSparkle> That's a good one

21:25 <wobniaR> Ew books

21:25 <DataByte> Books!

21:25 <Sour_Sweet> I'm not limited to any genre. A book just needs to catch me in a few pages.

21:25 * Electron places a book in the centre of this room

21:26 <DataByte> but what are you looking for?

21:26 <Sour_Sweet> Most of the stuff I read is purely technical though to be honest

21:26 <TwilightSparkle> I loved the mlp book that had discord on the cover

21:26 <DataByte> what books have you read and really liked?

21:29 <SunsetShimmer> Not quite

21:29 <SunsetShimmer> there's a few good ones

21:30 <DataByte> like what?

21:30 <SunsetShimmer> such as The princess journals, the Mares of SMILE and a couple more

21:30 <Electron> I liked a lot that issue about Cheerilee.

21:30 <Sour_Sweet> I was reading them to get maybe a bit backstory. If you have read any you know how that turned out xD

21:30 <SunsetShimmer> they're not super complex books, but they're decent fun

21:31 <TwilightSparkle> Cheerilee didn't change much from G3

21:31 <Sour_Sweet> Did preorder the Humble Bundle physical book though because why not.

21:32 <Sour_Sweet> I haven't paid anything for the rest, so I don't feel all that bad blowing some money there.

21:32 <DataByte> Sour_Sweet: would you like an epic adventure, or a fun adventure?

21:34 <Sour_Sweet> I'd probably go for epic. The thing is it's gets difficult when it confilcts too much with canon.

21:35 <DataByte> but ok - epic, and not breaking canon.. hm..

21:35 <TwilightSparkle> Party cannon!

21:35 <Sour_Sweet> Or go completely nuts. I thought for example about reading on Fallout Equestria.

21:36 <Sour_Sweet> Which is O.K. because canon shouldn't matter in such a world :D

21:36 <DataByte> mind-bending, perhaps?

21:37 <DataByte> FSDbF is epic, wacky, and disorientating xD

21:37 <TwilightSparkle> Hi nuclear

21:38 <Sour_Sweet> If it draws a good conclusion at the end, why not? I enjoy time travel multi dimension nonsense.

21:38 <TwilightSparkle> Then you would have loved the ending to S5

21:38 <Sour_Sweet> I did ;-)

21:38 <DataByte> "The Dread Chitin" by Karazor is good - the sequel is even better (warning - humanoid interaction)

21:39 *** TimidClef is now known as Temmid

21:39 <Temmid> HOI!

21:39 <DataByte> "The Last Human: A Tale of the Pre-Classical Era" by PatchworkPoltergeist - epic and doesn't break canon (in fact, tried to establish canon)

21:39 <Temmid> I'm Temmid!

21:39 <TwilightSparkle> So far I think Starlight Glimmer was one of the most crucial mlp villains yet

21:39 <DataByte> "The Conquering of Love" by Littlecolt - epic and technically takes place in a dreamscape (not interfere with cannon) (not complete, though)

21:40 <Sour_Sweet> Maybe a bit overpowered

21:40 <Sour_Sweet> The last once sounds an of lot like it involves Cadance

21:40 <DataByte> however, the one that takes the cake for me is "The Tears of Gaia" by Redback Spino

21:40 <DataByte> https://fimfetch.net/story/44105/the-tears-of-gaia

21:40 <TwilightSparkle> I did feel a little bad for her

21:41 <Sour_Sweet> I thank you for the recommendations. i'll definitely take a look.

22:34 <Guardian> well its worth a shot

22:34 <Pony|64322> Peace is better than hate

22:34 <Cepheid> It will never end, even if we can get everyone to agree.

22:34 <Sketchy_Sounds> Cos I mean, yer preaching to the choir here, really.

22:34 <Guardian> it is possible

22:34 <Cepheid> It's not.  There's literally people out there whose sole existence is to FURTHER THE PROBLEM.

22:34 <Cepheid> As in, they don't get anything out of it other than a kick out of seeing people fight.

22:34 <Cepheid> They start fights for the sake of watching people fight.

22:34 <Guardian> yes but those people are to be ignored

22:34 <Sketchy_Sounds> Plus there's also the facet of human nature to consider.

22:34 <Electron> The show is NOT about tolerance though. Show me episodes with tolerance, please.

22:35 <Sketchy_Sounds> Anyway yes. Not worth dwelling on.

22:35 <Sour_Sweet> Electron: They all love Derpy. Practically every epidose with Derpy xD

22:35 <Sour_Sweet> episode*

22:35 <Guardian> correct but the flame war is very annoying

22:35 <Guardian> thats true

22:35 <Cepheid> The easy solution is to just ignore the other side.

22:36 <Sketchy_Sounds> Guardian: the quickest way to end any flamewar is to ignore it.

22:36 <Cepheid> Since the reality is pretty straightforward.  There are people who are very good and crafty when it comes to manipulating things.

22:36 <Guardian> true

22:36 <Guardian> but most people wont ignore it

22:36 <Electron> They rolls their eyes while dealing with Derpy, can't say it's the sign of loving.

22:36 <Cepheid> That's there problem Guardian.

22:36 <Cepheid> That's human psychology at work.

22:36 <Cepheid> Er, their*

22:36 <Guardian> those are the people i am looking for

22:37 <Guardian> doing my best to help them to do so

22:54 <Lumindia> [05:34.58] <Electron> The show is NOT about tolerance though. Show me episodes with tolerance, please

22:54 <Lumindia> Zecora's first appearance

22:54 <Lumindia> Twilight is trying to tell everyone that Zecora isn't nearly as bad as everyone thinks she is

22:55 <Electron> Yeah, you just proved my point.

22:55 <Lumindia> ... wait how?

22:55 <SunsetShimmer> That's tolerance.

22:56 <SunsetShimmer> I don't know how you can really say otherwise...it was literally twilight trying to promote tolerance of a being different than ponies.

22:56 <Lumindia> granted, in the end Twilight eventually succumbs to the thought that Zecora kidnapped Applebloom

22:56 <SunsetShimmer> Well, it's hard not to get crazy when mob rules kick in

22:56 <DataByte> peer pressure is powerful

22:57 <Electron> The ponies are smart.

22:57 <SunsetShimmer> ....not exactly.

22:58 * Not-Renny peer pressures Electron into being a pony

22:58 <SunsetShimmer> As a mob, ponies are susceptible to suspicion and anxiety same as any other species.

22:59 <Schism> SunsetShimmer, HUH.  That was... hmm.  If the Puppies are responsible for that, I'm going to throw up my hands and scream.

22:59 <Not-Renny> But why?

22:59 <Lumindia> Also~!

22:59 <Electron> Because I'm being under pressure?

22:59 <Lumindia> That episode where Fluttershy thinks Discord can be a good person, but no one else believes her

23:00 <Not-Renny> Oh, okay,

23:00 <DataByte> increasing the pressure on poor Electron will raise his amperage levels

23:00 <Lumindia> Did someone say

23:00 <Lumindia> UNDER PRESSURE? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BWdLt3Afjrg

23:00 * Not-Renny applies more peer pressure to Electron, and also peer heat so he eventually turns to peer diamonds.

23:01 <Schism> SunsetShimmer, the Puppies are out in force, because that's how Theodore Beale has more than one item on the list again.

23:01 <SunsetShimmer> I don't...know what you mean

23:02 <SunsetShimmer> who are the puppies? what?

23:02 <Schism> The "Sad Puppies" and "Rabid Puppies" are the groups who basically forced the Hugos, last year, to give most of their titles to Noah Ward.

23:02 <SunsetShimmer> Oh, 'kay

23:03 <Schism> They're specifically led by people such as Theodore Beale, a.k.a. "Vox Day", one of the more loathsome people to ever set foot on the internet.

23:04 <Schism> A /gentleman/, and I use this in the pejorative sense, who has willfully advocated the burning of unfaithful women's faces with acid.

23:06 <Schism> So when, last year, there were far better episodes of MLP to be hard, particularly 'Crusaders of the Lost Mark', it strikes me as somewhat suspicious that in this ballot, the one episode which the anti-SJW crowds rallied around is the one on the ballot.

23:10 <Schism> Well, yes.  The groups known as the 'Sad Puppies' and 'Rabid Puppies' are attempting, and so far succeeding, in destroying the relevance of the Hugos by packing the ballot box with votes for works created by their leaders, without concern for relevance or quality.

23:15 <Librarian> i get it now

23:15 <Librarian> politics are messing with ma sci fi

23:16 <Librarian> lets create a new puppie

23:16 <Librarian> everyone else versus the weirdos

23:16 <Schism> Science Fiction has always been a political sort of work -- a glance at the future by necessity needs to include a political statement or spectrum of ideas, if only 'this is what the main characters believe and by what they're motivated'.

23:16 <Smooze> I return.

23:16 *** Smooze is now known as Tirek

23:17 <Schism> Whether this is utopian or dystopian, it's a part of sci-fi, and that's fine.  Science fiction is in no danger of dying out.  This is more like a whiny kid throwing a tantrum.

23:17 <Librarian> good to hear

23:17 <Librarian> the article said they might change the rules

23:17 <Librarian> so to avoid this puppie nonsense

23:18 <Schism> Yup, because it's a two-year process in order for the staff of WorldCon to go over everything and make sure that it /is/ a problem needing change.

23:18 <Schism> A whiny kid throwing a tantrum, and I reiterate, is Theodore Beale's entire schtick.

23:21 <Librarian> i kinda agree with the idea that the awards go to quality

23:21 <Librarian> not to say progressive is bad

23:22 <Librarian> also quality is relative

23:22 <Librarian> hard debate this one

23:22 <Gladiolus> `rip the hugos

23:22 <Gladiolus> ruined by nerds

23:22 <Schism> Oh, certainly, but the whole point of the Puppies was never REALLY to go to quality writing, it was to go to one specific /branch/ of science fiction/fantasy, and particularly to those works which they agreed with.

23:29 <Librarian> dune went weird at the end

23:29 <Schism> Dune went /very/ weird at the end.  I actually think Brian Herbert and Kevin J. Anderson's prequels were very, very good, though.

23:29 <Librarian> yep great material

23:30 <Schism> A lot of people dismiss them as just fanfic, but there's a lot of excellent writing in there.

23:30 <Librarian> even terry pratchett went somewhat dark at the end

23:30 <Librarian> you could feel anger there

23:30 <Schism> Yeah... the death of Granny Weatherwax, for example... ;-;

23:31 <Librarian> his long series is good as well

23:31 <Librarian> gave me a headache trying to grasp the idea but its fun

23:32 <Schism> Heya, Cepheid.  It's Hugo time again, and so we're discussing sci-fi.

23:32 * Cepheid hands a kid a sword.

23:32 <Librarian> nuuu

23:32 <Librarian> no swords

23:33 <Librarian> katanas cut better

23:33 <Schism> Not even ... lightsabers?

23:33 <Cepheid> Kids are more prone to bashing though.

23:33 <Librarian> those are ok

23:33 <Cepheid> So a typical sword works better.

23:33 <Schism> I joke, though.  Actually, the Deathstalker series has the whole sword-and-blaster thing going for it, and although it's no great shakes on the literary front, it's also the equivalent of a popcorn movie.

23:34 <Schism> You pick it up expecting Errol Flynn swordplay and epic climactic battles in every chapter, and that's about what you get.

23:34 <Librarian> i always went for a more satiric flavour to my histories

23:34 <Librarian> thats why i love pratchett, he makes you laugh and think

23:34 <Schism> Yeah... I miss pterry.  :(

23:34 <fyrepony> anyone playing heartsone?

23:38 <Schism> What th--

23:38 <Schism> ... hey, Cepheid.  Check out the current Humble Bundle.

23:38 <Librarian> i always found okami to be a bizzare concept

23:39 <Cepheid> Yeah, what about it?  I'm aware it's 3DS and Wii U games.

23:39 <Librarian> its pretty much like putting christ in a game

23:39 <SunsetShimmer> Except not really.

23:39 <Librarian> amaterasu is a huge deal there

23:39 <Schism> I'm just surprised that they can even DO that...

23:39 <Librarian> not quite the same

23:39 <Schism> Well, Amaterasu is less 'Jesus' and more 'Celestia'.

23:40 <Cepheid> Aye.

23:40 <Librarian> still, she is revered as a goddess

23:40 <Librarian> then again

23:40 <Cepheid> Because she is.

23:40 <SunsetShimmer> Thing is, it's an interpretation of the godess and not necessarily the exact story

23:40 <Librarian> i like that attitude

23:41 <Librarian> but amaterasu reminds me of a puppy i lost

23:41 <SunsetShimmer> I love Okami

23:41 <Librarian> i named her Amy and she died

23:41 <SunsetShimmer> like...it's literally one of the best games ever.

23:41 <Schism> It is!  I should play it more...
