02:38 <Cepheid> Okay, so for the sake of understanding what I did wrong, I opted to... "cheat" in a sense. I looked up what the solution was to the puzzle I brute-forced.
02:38 <Cepheid> And the solution is incredibly obscure.
02:40 <Cepheid> Could I have figured it out on my own? Oh, most certainly.

02:44 <Thelema5> I'm ot a gamer, so it's probably just my ignorance... but how is that sort of "cheat" different than a non-quote cheat?
02:44 <Cepheid> Fair enough.
02:44 <Cepheid> But in any case, puzzle was already solved. No way to return to pre-puzzle state to try other solutions. o3o

02:50 <DerpyBot> I need to ask Twilight about that one.
02:52 <Cepheid> Among other things: Viy has a f-off giant laser beam that destroys the scenery as he climbs ever upwards. His weakspot is placed in such a way that you can't hit it with your main weapons. His body, when touched, drains health rapidly with no knockback effect. He has four tendrils that like to harass the player as well.
02:54 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about La-Mulana OST - 30 - In the Bottom (Extended)
02:54 <Cepheid> Can't imagine getting a shuriken to the eye feels good, though.

03:13 <Cepheid> This isn't working. My damage output is too low, and the boss' damage output is excessive. Plus the hit point is incredibly small.
03:19 <Cepheid> Aaaand that one's no easier.
03:20 <Cepheid> The other boss I can reach, also, mysteriously, becomes invincible halfway through.

03:52 <Schism> Cepheid: Faeries. Bleh.
03:54 <Schism> Thelema5: Brute-forcing a puzzle is very much a cheat, it's like taking a jigsaw puzzle and, instead of pattern-matching, instead taking every single piece and comparing its edges to the others.
03:55 <Cepheid> The he- Was that- It was.
03:55 <Cepheid> ... So there must be a way to reach it, now.
03:56 <Schism> This having been said, in a game like La*Mulana, in this particular metaphor, you're missing the boxtop, there are no edge pieces, and all you've got are pieces of sky.
03:56 *** coolm__ is now known as PinkieShy
03:56 <Cepheid> I'm gonna straight up give you a hint, Schism, as this is obscure as absolute hell.
03:56 <Cepheid> Learn La-Mulanese.
03:57 <Schism> I know the 10 numbers, does that count?
03:57 <Cepheid> No.
03:57 <Cepheid> You need to learn the letters.
03:57 <Schism> Well, guess I'll go back to the Twin Labyrinths and look at that rosetta stone again.
03:57 <Cepheid> ... Wait, rosetta stone?
03:58 <Schism> Some tablets have both regular glyphs and the Mother's glyphs side by side?
03:58 *** Joins: RazorSharpFang (RazorSharpF@Pony-09e.dcq.221.203.IP)
03:58 <Cepheid> Right, but I'm unaware of any in the Twin Labyrinths.
03:58 <RazorSharpFang> Hey hey
03:58 <Schism> Oh, I might have been thinking of somewhere else.
03:58 <Cepheid> Tower of Ruin.
03:58 <Cepheid> That's the one I know.
03:58 <Schism> Hrm, could be.
03:59 <Cepheid> Also pay attention to room names.
03:59 * Schism goes to FFXIV for a few before rollover.
03:59 <Schism> Oh, well, yes.
03:59 <Schism> That's the main benefit of the maps.
03:59 <Cepheid> Outside of the Twin Labyrinth.
03:59 <Cepheid> The meaning of the room names is mostly arbitrary there, with one exception.
03:59 <Cepheid> Anyhoo, I was right about where to go next.
04:00 <Schism> Oh, you found the Ring and the Katana, I trust?
04:01 * Cepheid notices some suspiciously sine-wavy enemies. And yes, he has.
04:01 * Cepheid looks at the sine-wavy endlessly spawning enemies. "... Eff this, I quit."

04:05 <Cepheid> ... I am gonna have to piece this accursed map together, it seems. Where's my graph paper?
04:14 <Schism> That won't necessarily help you.
04:14 <Schism> A spreadsheet of entrances and exits, maybe. Sometimes, I swear the ruins are built like a MUD.

04:21 <Cepheid> Heavens no.
04:22 <Cepheid> Depending on the route you travel, you may actually walk through it without realizing it.
04:22 <Schism> Oh, Tower of the Goddess.
04:22 <Cepheid> Mmhm.
04:22 <Cepheid> I found how to access it.
04:26 <Cepheid> Bring a strong weapon.
04:28 <Cepheid> As for why I need to piece together a map, there's an X/Y puzzle.
04:30 <Cepheid> Anunnaki. Where have I heard that name? I know I saw it mentioned somewhere..
04:31 <Schism> Amusingly, a Google search turns up a bunch of Ancient Aliens links.
04:32 <Schism> As well as the Sumerian/Babylonian god itself.
04:32 <Cepheid> I mean in the game, I've heard it mentioned. I'm just trying to recall.
04:33 <Cepheid> Ah! Here we are!
04:35 <Cepheid> Right, let's get started. A map of the ruins as I know them.
04:40 <Cepheid> ...
04:40 <Cepheid> If I understand the riddle right, this places what I need to find in the Twin Labyrinths.
04:40 <Schism> What riddle's that?
04:41 <Schism> I don't mind mild spoilers like that.
04:41 <Cepheid> The lake created by Migela and Futo. Ribu carries the water to the tower. The place where the finger points and Anunnaki refuses to gaze upon.
04:42 <Cepheid> The mural of Anunnaki is up in the Spring in the Sky. It's that giant mural where the drain was plugged up.
04:42 <Schism> Heh. :P And there's a finger pointing a pot...
04:42 <Schism> pointing to*
04:42 <Cepheid> The "finger points"...
04:43 <Cepheid> The only thing that resembles that to me, is the giant.
04:43 <Cepheid> Down in the mausoleum.

04:44 <Cepheid> This is the room where I- *Double checks*
04:44 <Schism> Ah, the sound of impending madness.
04:45 <Cepheid> It's a weapon room.
04:45 <Cepheid> One I've already opened.
04:45 <Schism> Yeoof.
04:46 <Schism> And since you've already opened it, that means you have the weapon, and can use that to unlock the Tower?
04:46 <Cepheid> Only problem is, I don't recall which weapon it is.
04:46 * Schism also boops Cepheid with a keyblade, the weakest weapon in the game.
04:46 <Cepheid> It's not the axe.
04:47 <Cepheid> ... Was it a weapon?
04:47 <Cepheid> Ngg.. I can't recall.
04:48 <Schism> I... haven't gotten anywhere near there yet. But aren't there weapons which don't directly damage enemies? The Book of the Dead could probably qualify as a weapon.
04:49 <Cepheid> According to a quick review, the item here was the ring.
04:49 <Schism> Renders those freakin' jackal-demons useless, that's to be sure.
04:50 * Schism hmms. "Oh, you're in Twin Labyrinths. Right, that and the Katana on the other side."
04:50 <Cepheid> ... Which just makes me better at throwing weapons.
04:51 <Cepheid> The only other hint I have comes from Malbruk, and it seems to refer specifically to the fairies, and worse, any bloody possible place in the entirety of the ruins.
04:51 <Schism> Hey, don't knock the ring. It bumps the chakram up to the most insane item in the game.
04:52 <Cepheid> "Did you meant the Fairy Queen? The fairies, too, live inside the ruins to help you. They'll relieve your fatigue, but amongst them is a fairy that holds a key. Apparently it is a key that unlocks some trap. When you find it, take it to the puzzle you failed to solve."
04:53 <Schism> I'm pretty sure the RNG is not the solution... well. It might be. Probably not for that, though.
04:53 <Cepheid> ... Wait, wait wait wait wait.
04:53 <Cepheid> Something in this room changed.
04:53 <Schism> Got like five key fairies in a row, I swear.
04:53 <Cepheid> Meanwhile they're rare as hell for me.
04:54 <Cepheid> You can game the system a bit.
04:54 <Schism> I'm still grumbling over the "Isis sits above all other gods", thing.
04:54 <Cepheid> Find a fairy next to a transition.
04:54 <Schism> Yeah, I know.
04:55 <Cepheid> Dangit, that was a key fairy.
04:55 <Schism> It asks you for a weapon, right? A powerful one, at that.
04:55 <Cepheid> Hmm?
04:56 <Schism> That riddle you're on.
04:56 <Cepheid> Was. I switched to the fairy one.
04:56 <Cepheid> That's more of interest to me right now.
04:56 <Schism> Oh, 'kay.
04:57 * Schism starts Alliance Raid for his level 69 BLM.

05:30 <Cepheid> Hmm.

05:32 <Cepheid> It's the "prevent's death once" combo.
05:33 <Cepheid> Can't be all the key fairy is used for though.
05:35 <Schism> Oh, what software is that?
05:35 <Cepheid> randc.exe: Rose and Camellia.
05:36 <Cepheid> Combines with Lonely House Moving.
05:37 <Cepheid> Combines with Death Village too, apparently.
05:37 <Cepheid> Er, Lonely House Moving that is.
05:37 <Schism> Hmm. Sounds like it could combine with more then.
05:37 <Cepheid> If it can, I dun have any others.
05:37 <Cepheid> Mirai, it doesn't combine with anything.
05:37 <Schism> Mirai is useful enough that you want it equipped at all times anyway.
05:40 <Cepheid> ...? Found a talisman..

06:01 <Schism> Also, chakrams are /expensive/. Almost as expensive as bullets.
06:01 <Schism> Which makes sense, since with the Ring, they're as /powerful/ as bullets.

06:14 <Schism> I know of one 'unsolveable' puzzle.
06:15 <Cepheid> Oh?
06:15 <Schism> It requires the Bombs, and I remember it because when reading TVTropes, this sort of thing sticks in your head. In the original it could only be solved via an exploit, you see.
06:16 <JonTheVGNerd> My Christmas became awesome
06:16 <Schism> A block-pushing puzzle, but I'm afraid I don't remember where exactly it was. I don't know if it requires a fairy, though.
06:16 <Schism> Oh yes. Merry Christmas, everyone, have a slice of roast beast.
06:16 <JonTheVGNerd> Had 9 new games and a new console to go for
06:19 <Cepheid> ...
06:19 <Cepheid> I think I know the puzzle, Schism. It'd explain the tablet.
06:19 <Schism> "This puzzle is impossible"?
06:20 <Cepheid> "Some fool made this puzzle impossible to solve. It's been rewritten now. Woe to those who fail to solve the puzzle properly."
06:20 <Schism> Yup.
06:20 <Cepheid> That was actually my first thought.
06:20 <Cepheid> But no, that's not the room.
06:22 <Schism> So I did the Alliance Raid not too long ago. And in Syrcus Tower, there's a staircase which drops into place as neat as can be. When it did, my instincts demanded that I throw myself to the side lest I be crushed.
06:22 <Schism> Too much L*M.
06:24 <Cepheid> Ye know, I really should draw out the map. It'd help figure out some connections.

08:16 <Schism> ... I was collecting Caster gear all along, just as a point, and completely forgot that I was doing so.
08:16 <Schism> So I hit level 70 and immediately jump to iLvl 325. (Level 70 job gear tends to be 290.)

08:25 * Finwe doffs his hat.
08:30 <RazorSharpFang> Is there a maximum size for tinker's construct smeltery?
08:31 <ConfusionRift> I think in the latest is 9x9. Not sure of how tall though.
08:32 <ConfusionRift> 7x7.
08:32 <RazorSharpFang> Is that 7x7 internally?
08:32 <ConfusionRift> "As of the 1.7.0 versions, the Smeltery can be any rectangular shape up to 7 blocks per side (not counting corners, as the smeltery does not recognize them)."
08:32 <ConfusionRift> I believe it would be internally.
08:33 *** Joins: Moongoodgirl{K} (LunarToyK@sugar-belle.blackl.net)
08:33 <ConfusionRift> As in the maximum floor block space is 7x7. The overhangs and wall blocks don't count.

08:35 <RazorSharpFang> Alright, now my smeltery is a 7x7
08:35 <RazorSharpFang> 8x8 wasn't working
08:36 <ConfusionRift> Just a tad too big. :P
08:36 <RazorSharpFang> Now, I guess I can add layers vertically.
08:36 <RazorSharpFang> Is there a vertical limit?
08:37 <ConfusionRift> As I mentioned previously, I'm unsure. We have made really (and I mean really) tall smelters.

08:42 * ConfusionRift whispers at RazorSharpFang. "You can build the smelter all the way to the game's build height limit."
08:43 <RazorSharpFang> Nice
08:43 <ConfusionRift> In other words, you can build up pass the sky. :P
08:45 <ConfusionRift> And in the 1.10.x version, the floor limit is 9x9.
08:45 *** Joins: Lord_Greener (The_Greene@Pony-sbp1pv.bb.dnainternet.fi)
08:45 <ConfusionRift> That's a huge smelter.

08:45 <Schism> RSF: Cotton is ... hm. Actually.
08:46 <Schism> RSF: Why don't you make some sheep eggs?
08:46 * Finwe smelts ConfusionRift.
08:46 <ConfusionRift> Aaaaaieeeeee!
08:46 * ConfusionRift respawns.
08:46 <Finwe> For some reason, Modern English has discarded the "s" in smelt.
08:47 <Finwe> Except in the word "smelter".
08:47 * ConfusionRift shrugs.
08:48 <ConfusionRift> Not as bad as people forgetting the difference between "your" and "you're".
08:50 <RazorSharpFang> You'r're right.
08:50 <RazorSharpFang> Finwe, melting and smelting ARE supposed to be different.
08:50 <RazorSharpFang> i.e.: You smelt ores, you melt metals.
08:53 <Finwe> In other Germanic languages there's only the form with an initial s.
08:54 <Finwe> Schmelzen, smälta, ...
09:03 <Schism> "You can't possibly have that many mana stones at your ready disposal." "Are you familiar with the concept of 'automation'?"
09:04 *** Quits: Reia (Reia_Hope@TheCowPony) (Quit: Bye)
09:05 <Schism> RSF: There is a cotton seed to be had in The Life of the World.
09:05 <ConfusionRift> Automation? What the heck is that? :I
09:05 <Schism> ConfusionRift: It's darkest witchcraft.
09:06 <Finwe> Witchcraft Is Magic. o3o
09:06 <Schism> You make one robot, which builds another...
09:08 <RazorSharpFang> Sounds like factorio.
09:09 <Schism> You can pull it with magic, too. Build a single rune which collects magic, which then powers a small waldo which engraves runes into a crystal...
09:09 <Finwe> Self-replicating artificial life forms.
09:10 <Schism> The simplest prions are pretty straightforward. It's the art of programming them which gets complicated.
09:11 <Schism> You of course also want to build machines which build smaller ones.
09:13 *** Tempo is now known as Tempo-Sleep
09:13 <Schism> "They call it a quine, back home. A machine which outputs its own code. I just want it to output a copy in miniature." "... I'm going to probably have to stop you there." "Why?!" "Because a machine that eats quarks is probably going to turn out badly."
09:14 <Finwe> Schism: After Willard van Orman Quine?
09:14 <ConfusionRift> Me? Naaaaaa- (looks at G.S., she's doing the "abandon" gesture) -aaaaaaaah!
09:14 <Schism> Yes, thought it was Douglas Hofstadter who came up with the term.
09:14 <Schism> though*
09:24 <Schism> "I was going to put a recursion limit on them." "And when that recursion limit failed due to random chance, cosmic radiation and/or the Cubs winning the series?" "... right."
09:26 * ConfusionRift sees very small ponies destroying things.
09:26 <ConfusionRift> That's the worse way to handle an error.
09:28 * Finwe boops Schism with $_=q{$_=q{Q};s/Q/$_/;print};s/Q/$_/;print
09:29 * Schism parses, then counter-Qs.
09:30 <Schism> I admit to being unsure how to parse that...
09:30 <ConfusionRift> Hmm, there is a mod that changes the music playing depending on the biome one is in, and these can be customized.
09:31 <Finwe> Biomes?
09:31 <Schism> ConfusionRift, the biome in Regrowth is almost always the Wasteland.
09:31 <Finwe> How do you customise biomes?
09:31 <Schism> Finwe: There are biomes in Minecraft, like ocean, beach, plains, forest, jungle, et cetera.
09:31 <ConfusionRift> Sorry, I meant the music according to the biome, not the biome itself.
09:31 <Schism> Oftentimes, those biomes are set based on the prevalence of certain items within the chunk.
09:32 <Finwe> But then you would have said "this can be customised".
09:32 <Finwe> o2o
09:32 <Finwe> +1
09:32 <Schism> It is entirely possible to terraform a biome based on what blocks are placed.
09:32 <Schism> Some mods facilitate this.
09:33 * ConfusionRift flops. "I'm not exactly feeling well. Sorry for the derp."
09:34 * Finwe patpathugs ConfusionRift.
09:35 <Schism> Rifty offered an answer simply parallel to my own. o3o;
09:35 <Schism> Which was also entirely valid.
09:35 <ConfusionRift> In any case, it was gonna be part of my modpack. Unsure if I'm going for it.
09:35 <Schism> Gonna terraform, tho?
09:37 <ConfusionRift> The idea is that instead of playing the same songs everywhere you go, specific (basically user added) songs would play. These change as one moves from biome to biome.
09:37 <Schism> Not an uncommon sort of mod.
09:37 <Finwe> In desert, Sandstorm by Darude. o3o
09:37 <ConfusionRift> I wish I knew of a mod I could use to terraform to my heart's content.
09:37 <ConfusionRift> Finwe: Basically, yeah. :P
09:37 <Schism> ConfusionRift, the Witchery mod is good for that.
09:38 <ConfusionRift> Really? Am I supposed to mess with the configs?
09:38 <Schism> Terraforming is that mod's endgame.
09:38 <ConfusionRift> Oh right.
09:38 <ConfusionRift> For terraforming.
09:38 <Schism> Right, the music... not so much.
09:39 <Schism> Honestly, though, adding music to the game is like the simplest mod setup.
09:39 <ConfusionRift> I know, I can just replace the music files for something else.
09:40 <ConfusionRift> Or have the media player running as I play.
09:40 <Schism> Or those, yes.
09:42 <ConfusionRift> https://minecraft.curseforge.com/projects/ambience-music-mod Thought would be neat.
09:45 <Moongoodgirl{K}> Schism: you can't actually change a Minecraft biome by placing blocks though.

09:52 <Schism> Witchery, and Magical Forest is alongside it, and ... well, the whole POINT of Regrowth is to change biomes eventually.
09:52 <Schism> I could've sworn there was a way to corrupt biomes in vanilla, though.
09:53 <ConfusionRift> Yep. At the very least carpet the place with grass. :P
09:53 <Moongoodgirl{K}> I don't think there is in vanilla.
09:54 <Moongoodgirl{K}> You can certainly make it LOOK like a different biome, but f3 will still say whatever it generated as
09:55 <Schism> Ah, vanilla. Yeah, that's a different monster.

10:17 <Finwe> I should probably be proud of my laptop battery. I had forgotten the laptop on on Friday, and there was still 10% of the charge left when I discovered this today.
10:18 <Schism> http://www.scp-wiki.net/holy-crap-this-is-a-long-christmas-tale - Here you go.
10:20 <Schism> (This seems like a good introduction to a very sillier Foundation canon.)
10:22 <Moongoodgirl{K}> 3740 is /hilarious/ >X3
10:22 <Schism> Sometimes, the Foundation can be silly. <3
10:22 <Moongoodgirl{K}> :D
10:22 <Schism> "Sometimes, the universe throws you a softball, and this one might as well be made of mozzarella."
10:23 <Schism> But check that Christmas Tale out. It's very Foundation, but it's also very Site-87.

10:23 * Moongoodgirl{K} posts http://www.scp-wiki.net/the-assassination-of-beleaguered-normalcy-by-the-coward-game while reading. Just because of IRC and Signal :D
10:24 <Schism> Oh yeah. Gamers Against Weed is /also/ very fun.
10:25 <Schism> These are tiny little subsets of the wiki, but also quite enjoyable in and of themselves. Lighter, softer SCPs, but still the sort of thing the Foundation wants to stop at all costs.
10:30 <Schism> Sloth's Pit is interesting, because it's almost entirely self-contained. The Foundation doesn't really /need/ to have a presence there. But they think they do, and because that makes for a better story... you have Site-87.
10:37 <RazorSharpFang> Just expanded the smeltery even more, I don't even know what it's capacity is now, but it's a lot.
10:38 <Moongoodgirl{K}> Schism: that was great. X3

10:41 <Schism> Not as such, but some dragons have.
10:41 <Finwe> Or should this question be rather aimed at Cepheid?
10:42 <Finwe> Schism: Viz., 31 (Oct) = 25 (Dec).
10:42 <Schism> Arrrgh.
10:42 * Schism waves a hoof at Finwe. "Yup, I should'a known."
10:43 <Finwe> :3
10:44 <RazorSharpFang> And now with extra fluid pipes, my smeltery and vat are always full of lava.
10:44 * Finwe snickers.
10:45 <Schism> I need to pull that one... make a 64-height smeltery with a nice fire essence bed around it, fill it up and pipe it down.
10:47 <Schism> No reason it can't sit atop another smeltery, too.
10:47 <Moongoodgirl{K}> Finwe: wait, so how exactly does that work?
10:47 <Moongoodgirl{K}> 12-25 == -13 != -21 == 10-31
10:48 <Schism> 31 in oct - base 8 - is 25 in dec - base 10.
10:48 <Moongoodgirl{K}> 12/25 == 0.48 != 0.3226 ~= 10/31
10:48 <Moongoodgirl{K}> OH.
10:48 <Moongoodgirl{K}> /radixes./
10:48 <Schism> Sure...
10:48 <Finwe> 3 * 8 + 1 = 2 * 10 + 5
10:48 <Moongoodgirl{K}> wow I have /never/ understood that joke.
10:49 * Moongoodgirl{K} facehoofs with both hooves.
10:49 <Schism> Yeah, and what do you get when you multiply six by nine?
10:49 <Finwe> Octal numbers are base 8, while decimal numbers are base 10.
10:49 <Finwe> o3o

16:05 <Cepheid> I can't get them frequently enough myself.
16:05 <Schism> Also, there is a FREAKING STUPID hidden wall in the Tower of Ruin. (Backside of Inferno Cavern.) Look two to the right of that giant tower.
16:05 <Cepheid> I know.
16:05 <Cepheid> I am curious as to how long it took you to solve that one. Or did you brute Force it?
16:05 <Schism> Brute force. ._.
16:06 <Schism> Get the right one and it doesn't trigger. Get the wrong one, it does.
16:06 <Cepheid> That's what my hint last night was about.
16:07 <Cepheid> You have to hit the blocks with the symbols that spell out the name "My"
16:07 <Cepheid> Er...
16:07 <Cepheid> Mu*
16:07 <Schism> Really.
16:07 <Cepheid> Yes.
16:07 <Cepheid> There is two catches.
16:07 <Schism> I have a freakin' rosetta stone here...
16:08 <Schism> By which I mean a useful little item which is translated... 20%.
16:08 <Cepheid> First, the symbols are in La-Mulanese.
16:08 <Cepheid> Secondly, the back side is a mirror world. Think about that for 15 seconds.
16:08 <Schism> I think I get the gist.
16:09 <Cepheid> The name is written backwards, and the symbols are mirrored.
16:10 <Cepheid> The rooms name is also a hint as well. But yeah.
16:10 <Schism> Mirrored symbols, I'm fine with. I have a freaking cheat-sheet written down right bloody here.
16:10 <Cepheid> It is an obscure puzzle.
16:11 <Schism> Fun fact. The symbol for 6, 'War', looks like a human being.
16:11 <Cepheid> It never occurred to me to learn La-Mulanese. You become dependent on the translator.
16:11 <Schism> This is also the symbol for Extinction.
16:11 <Cepheid> Yeah I know.
16:12 <Schism> Viy, by the way...
16:12 <Schism> I abused chakrams. Again.
16:12 <Cepheid> Heh.
16:13 <Schism> Look, if these bosses would stop siphoning away my prodigious HP every time I so much as look at them, I wouldn't have to resort to throwing massively potent discs at them.
16:13 <Cepheid> Viy is much different in this game compared to the original. The tentacles are longer, don't fire pellets, and the eye launches fireballs as it pops up.
16:14 <Schism> Thankful for the second part, and the first, but not so much the lattermost.
16:15 <Cepheid> In the original, the usual method was the rolling stars and the downward spear.
16:15 <Cepheid> The former is less viable due to the beam attack and platform sizes. The latter is outright dangerous or impossible.
16:18 <Schism> Rolling shuriken still work. They just... have a tendency to hit the adds instead.
16:18 <Schism> And the Earth Spears _work_...
16:19 <Schism> I think the Earth Spears are the intended method, really, considering you get them just before Viy.
16:19 <Schism> And they do work well. But... just not as well as a Ring-improved Chakram.
16:20 <Cepheid> I tried using the Spears. Unless you know a beam attack is coming, they are too risky. The window for attacking is too small.
16:21 <Cepheid> Otherwise you run a risk of getting a face full of eyeball wing-wong and fireballs.
16:21 <Schism> Really? I thought its tell was pretty obvious.
16:21 <Cepheid> Oh? Did I miss a detail?
16:22 <Schism> Yeah, it'll start charging blue, at which point you run across and toss a spear.
16:22 <Schism> Maybe it was just the timing.
16:22 <Cepheid> There is that yeah, but I found the timing window way too small.
16:22 <PinkieShy> My dog has ripped apart all his toys he got christmas :/
16:22 <PinkieShy> Well just about..
16:23 <PinkieShy> The plastic bone was ripped to shreads.. The tennis ball is cracked in half..
16:23 <PinkieShy> he is now down to 4 toys >.>
16:24 <Schism> Lessee, found a hidden dias, let's see what it-- ah. Hello there, philosopher of fail.
16:25 <Cepheid> That I am not familiar with.
16:25 <Cepheid> Don't tell me where it is.
16:25 <Schism> The Four Philosophers turned themselves to stone.
16:25 <Cepheid> Yeah I know.
16:25 <Cepheid> Oh. You mean of fail because they are still stone.
16:25 <Schism> Yeah.
16:26 <Cepheid> I mean, being a statue is in a way immortality.
16:27 <Schism> ...
16:27 <Schism> Okay, yeah, those freakin' Medusa Heads.
16:27 <Cepheid> Yup.
16:28 <Cepheid> There are also invisible flying rats. You can just barely make them out.
16:28 <Schism> Happily, those wolf riders drop chakrams.
16:32 <Cepheid> I can't wait to start bashing my head on La-Mulana 2. o3o
16:33 <PinkieShy> Merry Christmas Cepheid :)
16:33 <Cepheid> Merry Christmas.
16:34 <Schism> Were I a clever pony, I would have realized that yes, I can cling to the walls while scaling the Tower of the Goddess.

16:35 <Cepheid> Yeah.
16:35 <Cepheid> You can double jump, cling to walls, and then jump... ba- ...
16:35 <Cepheid> Why did it only take me this long to realize I could use this elsewhere?

16:41 <Schism> I don't know. Where are you on?
16:41 <Cepheid> Just after Viy. I found the talisman and opened up the Tower of the Goddess, and that's about it.
16:42 <Schism> Still have no clue how to get the bombs or anything here. Got the Goddess' Tower, and I got that clue about flooding.
16:42 <Cepheid> Flooding?
16:42 <Cepheid> Wait, dun tell me.
16:43 <Schism> You already have the clue.
16:43 <Schism> It's one you mentioned last night.
16:47 <Cepheid> You're gonna have to refresh my memory a bit. For some reason my memory of last night is somewhat hazy.
16:47 <Cepheid> Just give me a keyword, or the exact phrase I used. :P
16:49 <Cepheid> I'm assuming it's the lake one.
16:49 <Schism> Ribu carries the water to the tower, the place where the finger points, and Anunnaki refuses to gaze upon.
16:49 <Cepheid> Right.
16:50 <Cepheid> So the lake one then.\
16:50 <Cepheid> All I can gather of that is that it's either pointing to a room, or pointing to a LOCATION.
16:50 <Cepheid> Er, a location in a room that is.
16:52 <Cepheid> ...
16:52 <Cepheid> Son of a b-
16:52 <Cepheid> I just found it.
16:52 <Schism> Fingerpointy?
16:53 <Cepheid> He's pointing at the wall, and Anunnaki is facing *AWAY* from what he refuses to gaze on.

17:49 <Schism> Nice. I have a mere 700... and I suspect I'll need more.
17:49 <Cepheid> In one string of attempts to get a key fairy, I got the weapon fairy 10 times, treasure fairy 5 times, and the health fairy a staggering 25 times before I got one key fairy.
17:49 <Cepheid> I have... 290.
17:49 <Cepheid> I'm consistently broke as well.
17:49 <Cepheid> This is just a fluke.

17:50 <Cepheid> Never had a metroidvania last this long.
17:50 <Cepheid> Then again... the game was designed as a Nintendo Hard game, and on top of that?
17:51 <Cepheid> Designed intentionally much harder, because ruins deserve CONFUSING and misleading puzzles.
17:51 <Cepheid> Not these "In the seventh era, Anubis pushed a block onto this spot."
17:51 <Schism> WAUGH goddess statue NO.
17:52 <Cepheid> Gate of Illusion the wrong way? Hum.

17:53 <Cepheid> Actually, I know where the entrance is.

17:54 <Cepheid> ... Skuld's Tower.
17:54 <Schism> ... ... this... room?
17:55 <Cepheid> It's that other hatch. The one I can't access.

18:00 <Cepheid> ...
18:00 <Cepheid> The hell is this?
18:00 <Cepheid> Schism, I found a weird room.
18:00 <Cepheid> At the bottom of Skuld's Tower, there's a broken statue.
18:00 <Cepheid> You can walk inside the statue. Press up.
18:01 <Schism> Is that... hm.
18:01 <Cepheid> It plays music from another area, which area was that again..?
18:02 <Cepheid> Eternal Corridor.
18:02 <Schism> Huh... so you can. How peculiar.
18:02 <Cepheid> ... o.o
18:03 <Schism> If you keep falling off that tower, by the way, a staircase opens up midway.
18:03 <Cepheid> What in the-
18:03 <Cepheid> Oh, that's what that is.
18:03 <Cepheid> I made it up the tower on my first try, climbing, so..

18:29 <Cepheid> Aye. Speaking of that place..

19:29 <Schism> And I am quite certain that if I read these tablets I'm going to screw /something/ up.
19:34 <Cepheid> The shining pillars are the child's feelings, the glowing feelings of the dancing child. The reason that the feelings shine lies in a very strange treasure. A wonderful treasure that is weak yet unbending. If this treasure disappears, if everything disappears all at once, the child will be saddened and it's spirit will cloud over. I leave this behind and pass it down, to preserve the child's spirit.
19:34 <Cepheid> And next to the text, a mural with a statue with 5 circles placed around it. In the room are five golden pots.
19:35 <Cepheid> The circles do not line up with the pots, and the pots are unmovable. Breakable. And yes, I already tried breaking them.

20:12 <Schism> But it's cute.
20:18 <Cepheid> ...
20:18 <Cepheid> That is... yeah.
20:18 <Schism> It won't get you anywhere. It does give you a piece of software, but I have no clue what that thing does.
20:19 <Schism> Bird's room has a vampire in it. Hrm.
20:19 <Schism> Oh. I see.
20:20 <Cepheid> I assume the "8-bit is so hard to read" is a reference to the original Japanese.
20:20 <Cepheid> As in games of the MSX and NES era used kana instead of kanji. There wasn't enough space to put detailed kanji on the screen, unless they used four "tiles" per kanji.
20:21 * Schism nodnods, "And the original game was poorly translated, too, making it immensely more difficult to make out the clues."
20:22 <Cepheid> I noticed that.
20:22 <Cepheid> I watched video of the earlier parts.
20:22 <Cepheid> And my gods is the translation for the Mausoleum garbled.
20:22 <Schism> Heehee.
20:23 <Schism> Bird! Cepheid, shortcut you said? Where?
20:23 <Schism> Oh right, hand.
20:23 <Cepheid> Smack the hand.
20:24 <Cepheid> Personal thoughts.
20:24 <Cepheid> They should have recreated the entirety of the MSX La-Mulana in the Field of Time.
20:24 <Cepheid> Bosses and all.
20:25 <Schism> Agreed.
20:26 <Schism> Sdglcgbih. Stupid Bird room.
20:27 <Cepheid> Hmm. 8-bit mulana software hidden in here.
20:27 <Schism> Yah, and it does a sum total of nothing on its own.
20:27 <Cepheid> "In both past and present, I lie here dead."

20:30 <Schism> There /is/ a semi-useful shortcut therein, but you've already gotten past that.
20:34 <Cepheid> Oh?
20:34 <Schism> In the mausoleum, there's a semi-covered ladder which leads to the Tower of the Goddess.
20:36 <Schism> This has as much viability as a cheese sandwich.
20:38 <Cepheid> Clearly.
20:39 * Schism watches all the gold from Ba fall down into the drain.
20:39 <Cepheid> Anyhow, where was I..?
20:40 <Schism> Graveyard of the Giants?
20:40 <Cepheid> Right, thanks.
20:41 <Schism> Cheers.
20:43 <Schism> So bird is down.
20:44 <Schism> And in the Lizard's Room, there's for that.

20:57 <Cepheid> Hmm. Got the bombs, but that impossible puzzle is still impossible?
20:57 <Cepheid> I broke the wall, but the way the blocks are placed..
20:58 <Cepheid> ... Oh.
20:59 <Cepheid> Time to grind monies!
21:01 <Cepheid> And now the money fairy refuses to show up.
21:03 <Schism> Of course...
21:05 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Sethisto: Drawfriend Stuff (Pony Art Gallery) #2841 [ http://tinyurl.com/y8ugulf9 ]
21:11 <Schism> More freakin' bombs.
21:15 <Schism> Sonofa!
21:21 <Schism> So, okay. There's a fairy block in the Gate of Illusion.
21:21 <Schism> Broke /that/, and now...
21:23 <Schism> Have absolutely no clue what the next step is. B.eh.
21:38 * Cepheid thinks. He has two new items, where can they be used..?
21:41 <Schism> Which?
21:41 * Schism also... um... abuses an item fairy.
21:41 <Cepheid> Lamp of Time, Cog of the Soul.
21:42 <Schism> Oh, you beat the bird. Well, lamp of time, you may have noticed those odd wheels with sun, moon, star in them.
21:42 <Cepheid> I am already aware
21:42 <Cepheid> I've used it.
21:42 <Schism> Ah, alrighty. It doesn't come pre-primed, so. ._.
21:42 <Schism> And you have indeed used it once at least.
21:43 <Cepheid> LM2, I'm buying a notebook.
21:43 <Schism> Notepad is your bestest friend. But yes, numbers at least...
21:44 <Schism> Cog of the Soul, the NPC told you -- it creates life.
21:44 <Cepheid> Origin of Birth, then.
21:45 <Schism> Hm, 800 gold should do me for now.
21:46 <Cepheid> Ow ow OW.
21:46 <Cepheid> Do *NOT* use bombs if you have a weapon fairy.
21:46 <Schism> ... no, and also do not use a weapon fairy if in the Temple of Moonlight.
21:46 <Schism> Not that I've ever done exactly that.
21:47 <Cepheid> I have twice.
21:47 <Cepheid> I also just killed myself by attacking protected stuff.
21:48 <Schism> Elephants.
21:48 <Schism> Just... elephants.
21:49 <Cepheid> And heavens help you if you fall an improper way into that infinite pit.
21:51 <Finwe> o3o
21:51 <Finwe> Good evening, my perissodactyls of minute stature.
21:51 * Finwe sips diluted orange juice.
21:58 * Schism gets knocked down into that pit. AGAIN.
22:01 * Starlight_Glimmer applies cute Digimons to Finwe
22:01 <Schism> This game is also using a very interesting definition of 'bats' which does not include 'swooping, sine-wave bats of death'.
22:04 <Schism> Giant freakin' SNAKES all over this temple of life, and it took me this long to use the staff which is also a snake.
22:05 <Cepheid> Gods. Damned. Bats.
22:07 <Schism> There goes six chakrams.
22:14 <Finwe> Messrs Cepheid, Schism and Starlight_Glimmer.
22:14 * Finwe doffs his hat.
22:32 <Cepheid> ... That is not immediately obvious, but...
22:39 <Cepheid> Hey Kali.
22:39 <Cepheid> Actually wait, that's Parvati.
22:41 <Cepheid> *THAT* is Kali.
22:44 <Cepheid> Excuse my language, but Kali is a female dog.
22:49 <Cepheid> ...
22:49 <Cepheid> I've been looking everywhere for this.
22:49 <Cepheid> Oh, wait, I thought that was something else.
22:55 * Schism blinks.
22:55 *** Sleeping_Nightmares is now known as Filly_Nightmares
22:55 * Filly_Nightmares bats at Schism nosie
22:56 <Cepheid> Finally this place is permanently lit.
23:05 <Schism> What. I'm stuck on the Chamber of Birth, darnit.
23:05 <DerpyBot> New post on Equestria Daily by Sethisto: Drawfriend Stuff (Pony Art Gallery) - Best of The Holidays Edition! [ http://tinyurl.com/yaqgunj5 ]
23:05 <Cepheid> Need a hint?
23:05 <Schism> I can't read the tablets. :<
23:11 * Filly_Nightmares kneads Cepheid nosie
23:13 <Cepheid> Hum, nothing appears to have changed aside from the Chamber of Extinction being permanently lit now..
23:14 <Schism> Fdfgnbvbh. I probably do need some sort of hint. I've got the mudmen scrambling around the area.
23:14 <Cepheid> Find the mural of the one who sustains the land.
23:16 <Schism> I've scanned both of those murals.
23:16 <Cepheid> There's a tablet that gives a hint regarding his mural.
23:18 <Schism> Well, I'm going to take a break. Furrfu.

23:22 <Thelema5> Any word on DashedRainbows?
23:22 <Cepheid> Nothing yet.
23:28 <Schism> A kidney transplant is hardly outpatient surgery. I imagine they'll be laid up in ICU for a couple days yet.
23:32 <Cepheid> I am gonna take a shower, myself.
23:40 <Cepheid> Want me to explain my little riddle, Schism, so you can get moving a bit?
23:40 <Schism> Ehh, not at the moment. I just need to take a break, get my brain back on track.
23:40 <Schism> Thanks, tho.
23:41 <Cepheid> Right. Offer will remain, though. Just ask if you start getting too frustrated.
23:41 * Schism nodnods.
23:41 <Schism> Have you used the Lamp of Time in that one section of the Tower of the Goddess yet?
23:42 <Cepheid> Yep.
23:42 <Cepheid> I got a note to buy the software at 300 coins.
23:43 <Cepheid> But first, shower. I was disrupted by dinner.
23:43 * Schism nodnods. "There is a room in the Chamber of Extinction which has several breakable boxes right by the side. This has resulted in me having... well, a full stack of flares, weights and coins.
23:47 * Filly_Nightmares yawnskrees

23:53 <PinkieShy> So... Asked my brother if he had internet issues today.. He said nope
23:53 <PinkieShy> So.. Looks like tomorrow this Motorola Surfboard router will be laid to rest :P
23:53 <Schism> "Giving the Cutie Mark Crusaders anything is like positioning yourself under an anvil hanging by a camel-hair thread. It's just asking the universe to smite you."
23:53 <Cepheid> Hum... I wonder.
23:54 <Schism> Oh yeah. The SB series of internet modems are... pretty decent for what they are, but generally not great for routing purposes.
23:55 <PinkieShy> Schism internet dropped 5 times today and WiFi calling was a issue >.>
23:55 <Schism> As I said.
23:56 <Schism> You could probably keep the modem going if you have a third-party router and the ability to bridge the thing.
