03:12 <Cepheid> Huh.  My parents finally shaved Tizzy down.

03:14 <Cepheid> Good gods that feels weird to touch.

03:15 <Cepheid> https://twitter.com/urIastbraincell/status/1218412355673120768?s=19

03:17 * Schism catches some fish, which results in the Meowscular Chef having more ingredients.

03:19 <Cepheid> Also make sure to gather from stuff like the cacti and so on.

03:19 <Schism> Oh, I know.

03:19 <Cepheid> Gods, Tizzy, stick with me tonight.  I'll cover ye up in a blanket.  Cold in this house tonight.  Parents picked a bad day to shave her down.

03:21 * Ali meows at Cepheid

03:21 <Cepheid> https://twitter.com/MH_official_JP/status/1219079593073577985?s=19 This is...  Huh.  Never seen indepth mocap before.  Especially for MH.

03:22 <Cepheid> Hello, Ali. *Layers blankets upon her.*

03:22 * Ali purrs, she is rather cold tonight

03:23 <Ali> Its only 14F here

03:24 <Schism> Saaaame.

03:24 <Cepheid> Only slightly colder here. -13C, or 9F.

03:24 <Cepheid> So we are all suffering from the same cold temp.

03:25 <Cepheid> Though apparently the wind makes it feel like -22C/-8F

03:26 <Cepheid> Damnit Spitfire what is it with you and eating everything off the floor?  That's a piece of plastic.  Give it here!

03:27 <Cepheid> ...?  I just noticed something odd about him.

03:28 <Cepheid> When I pet him, just before my hand touches the back of his head, his jaw/lower lip twitches.

03:33 <Cepheid> Oh good GODS it's freezing in my room.

03:33 <Cepheid> Almost inclined to just move my setup downstairs now, because of how cold it is.

03:35 <Cepheid> Instead, I'll just apply multiple means of warming myself up.  Set up the humidifier, throw some socks on, throw a sweater on, hide underneath my duvet.

03:36 <Cepheid> https://www.reddit.com/r/dndmemes/comments/eqyj9w/nat_20/?st=k5lwc9n2&sh=8c9f5a40 Schism, this happens to me a lot.  How about you?

03:37 <Cepheid> https://i.imgur.com/ay2GjUV.gifv Meanwhile, this is the opposite of what I expected.

03:37 <Ali> At least you wouldn't need to worry about your server getting overheated.

03:37 <Schism> Yuuuup.

03:39 <Cepheid> For the love of-  Carleton University, STOP HARASSING ME.

03:40 <Cepheid> https://www.wayfair.ca/keyword.php?keyword=canvas+folding+camp+stool ... These are more expensive than I thought they'd be.

03:42 <Cepheid> Ah, we got title update information for MHWorld, let's see..

03:42 <Cepheid> February 6th... Rajang, Resident Evil Crossover, some Room updates(New themes, items, probably for the Seliana house), and the Volcanic Region for the "Guiding Lands"

03:43 <Cepheid> Then in March, we get the most recent console update, so Safi'jiiva, Stygian Zinogre, then the Tundra Region for the Guiding Lands.

03:43 <Cepheid> Then in April, two new monster variants.

03:44 <Cepheid> And finally, we reach parity with console, and from that point on, we maintain parity with console.

03:44 * Golden just beat DBZ Kakarot's story.

03:44 <Cepheid> Which is nice, because the constant "we're behind by several months" thing was annoying.

03:44 <Schism> Hmmmm.  o3o

03:44 <Cepheid> ...

03:45 <Cepheid> https://www.monsterhunter.com/world-iceborne/pc/assets/img/common/news/thum/roadmap_2020_us.jpg

03:45 <Cepheid> May is curious, indeed.

03:45 <Golden> It plays Cha La Head Cha La while fighting Kid Buu

03:46 <Schism> Fan-favourite monster, eh?

03:46 <Cepheid> Yeah, I find that interesting.

03:46 <Cepheid> There's so many monsters that could be linked to.

03:47 * Golden hoping Gore Magala, or Fatalis makes it in.

03:47 *** Quits: FruitNibbler (Eogan@Pony-4s2si5.dip0.t-ipconnect.de) (Connection closed)

03:47 <Cepheid> Best way to figure out what it might be would be to look around on the various wikis.  No doubt one of them has done a "favourite monster" poll.

03:48 <Schism> Clearly, it will be Rhenoplos.

03:49 <Cepheid> Konchu man, Konchu.

03:50 <Schism> Daimyo Hermitaur?  

03:50 <Cepheid> Truth told, I'd fight a gigantic konchu.  And I'm not talking the size of the various Bear types.  I'm talking like, gigantic.  Akantor-sized.

03:51 <Schism> We've already got a rolling monster, though.

03:52 <Schism> Hm, any chance of it being Lagiacrus?  Not sure if there's a watery area in Iceborne.

03:52 * Schism watches it turn out to be Tempered Mosswine.

03:53 <Cepheid> Doesn't mean we can't have more.

03:53 <Cepheid> There are some that argued it won't be Lagiacrus because of skeleton stuff.

03:53 <Cepheid> But it seems that MHWorld is doing much better than Capcom ever expected, and they are willing to add new skeletons.  So I can totally see Lagiacrus being a possibility now.

03:54 <Cepheid> Especially since they literally killed off their only other large MH game.

03:55 <Cepheid> A month ago, MH Frontier was thrown six feet under.

03:55 <Schism> Whoof.

03:55 <Cepheid> Never will I get the chance to fight the UNKNOWN Rathian, now.

03:55 <Cepheid> Or Mi-Ru

03:55 <Schism> Wait... Monster Hunter x Raccoon City?  Oh dear.

03:55 <Cepheid> Yeah.

03:56 <Schism> What, are we going to see BOW Rathalos?

03:56 <Cepheid> But yeah, my point is, with Frontier dead, and no other MH Games in the works, as far as I can see, the Leviathans have to crop up somewhere again.

03:56 * Schism nodnods.

03:56 <Cepheid> So I imagine that they are going to be added to MHWorld, despite back in 2018, the devs saying it'd never happen.

03:57 <Cepheid> But again, MHWorld turned out to be far more popular than they ever expected it would be.

03:57 <Schism> Turns out that there were a lot of PC gamers hoping for a Monster Hunter game.  Who would ever have expected that?

03:59 <Cepheid> Well, one already existed.

03:59 <Cepheid> Like I said, it died.

03:59 <Cepheid> Frontier was the PC MH game.

03:59 <Schism> Ah, right.

03:59 <Cepheid> Just never released in the West.

03:59 <Cepheid> It's unfortunate that it died too.  Took a hell of a roster with it.

03:59 <Cepheid> Which, arguably, makes figuring out the fan-favourite tricky.

03:59 <Cepheid> Since there could be a monster from Frontier that was insanely popular.

04:11 * DashedRainbows grabs her pacifier and plushie then goes to sleep in a pony pile. Nini

04:11 * Schism looks at the greatsword ... ultimate slash. "Okay. That looks involved."

04:12 <Schism> Interesting.  Bazelgeuse is territorial, even against itself.

04:15 <Cepheid> Bazelgeuse is territorial with friggen everything.

04:15 <Cepheid> Including it's own ****.

04:16 <Cepheid> Now I've just imagined Bazelguese going to the bathroom, then turning around and challenging it's excrement via roaring and explosives.

04:16 <Schism> Yes, but didn't you mention a mission where you have to fight two Tempered Bazelgeuse?

04:17 <Cepheid> Yes.

04:17 <Cepheid> Fortunately, those who get the Iceborne expansion are safe from that nightmare.

04:17 <Schism> The obvious solution presents itself.

04:18 <Cepheid> The expansion, if you start it, will automatically complete that quest and the HR39(?) Kirin quest.

04:18 <Schism> Oh, nice.

04:20 <Cepheid> "Man, where is that Anjanath going?"  *Anjanath is traveling to area 1 from area 8.*  <Player who caught up> "To Bazel."

04:20 <Cepheid> <Me> "Goddamnit."

04:22 <Cepheid> Oh look, a jewel that is of little use to me.

04:22 <Cepheid> Poisoncoat Jewel 3.

04:23 <Schism> If your hunt target gets offed by another monster, does that fail the quest?

04:23 <Cepheid> Poison Functionality skill.  Allows me to use poison coat on bows that don't support it.  Hum, I really should give B&A a try some time.

04:23 <Cepheid> Only if it's a capture quest.

04:23 <Cepheid> If it's a kill quest, it doesn't matter HOW the monster dies, only that it dies.

04:23 <Cepheid> Or is captured.

04:23 <Schism> Well, a capture quest is kinda obvious.  But aha.

04:24 <Cepheid> You're aware of that right?  Capture counts as a "kill" in hunt/slay quests.

04:25 <Cepheid> Well, in hunts.  Slay is a special case.  Usually means you can't capture the target, period.  As in, the monster won't react to traps or tranq bombs.

04:25 <Schism> Oh, I know.

04:26 <Schism> And I am also aware that Mr. Spiky Boi doesn't get trapped.

04:26 <Schism> Possibly because he's not actually endemic to anywhere.

04:28 * DashedRainbows makes overgrown filly noises and uses Ali as a blanket

04:28 * Ali tucks DashedRainbows into a sleeping bag and kissies her forehead

04:33 <Cepheid> All elder dragons avoid trraps.

04:33 <Cepheid> Traps just don't work on them.

04:33 <Cepheid> Holy hell another HH user.

04:34 <Cepheid> I thought I was the ONLY ONE./

04:34 <Cepheid> I'm however, gonna hold off on another hunt for a bit.

04:35 <Cepheid> I need to clean up my room a bit, then take a shower.

05:15 * Jackie nuzzles DashedRainbows softly

05:16 * DashedRainbows is a good big filly and sleeps hopefully

05:17 * Jackie puts her on a soft hay with a blanket tucked

05:19 <Schism> ... ew.

05:22 <Schism> Cepheid: If I'm going to start learning to use the gun, I'm going to need to harvest a lot in the Highlands and Vale, aren't I?

05:22 <Schism> Or start fishing up a bunch of Bomb Arowana.

05:22 <Cepheid> For high-grade ammo and such, yeah.

05:23 <Cepheid> But with Iceborn, apparently you can just use the ancient tree for a lot of stuff now.

05:23 <Schism> Hmm.  Well, I'm not going to bother with Iceborne until I get through the main storyline and a bunch of the High Rank stuff.

05:23 <luckyspirit> Was just dropping in to say hi.

05:24 <luckyspirit> Off to bread now

05:24 <Cepheid> Heh.

05:25 <Cepheid> I don't blame you Schism.

05:25 <Cepheid> Iceborne is G-rank, more or less.

05:25 <Cepheid> So you'll need good HR-level stuff before you can even consider it.

05:26 *** Quits: luckyspirit (luckyspirit@pony.poni.pony) (Quit: bread)

05:26 <Cepheid> That said, if you need help building up your gear, give me a yell.  I can help accelerate it a bit so you can get back to speed with your gunning.

05:26 <Cepheid> Are you going LBG or HBG?

05:27 <Cepheid> ... Okay, this is a pretty cool looking armor set.

05:28 <Cepheid> https://i.imgur.com/32FeZly.png

05:28 <Cepheid> It even gives off steam!

05:30 <Schism> I'm not honestly sure, Cephy.  Might do HBG to start.

05:30 <Schism> Also, nice.  X3

05:31 <Cepheid> Seliana's nice.  You have access to *EVERYTHING* in one "room", and it's all on relatively the same floor, with shortcuts to some areas.

05:31 <Cepheid> Even the tailraider stuff.

05:31 <Schism> Hah, that might be worth getting just for that.

05:32 <Cepheid> Plus a spot to adjust your cat, etc.

05:32 <Cepheid> Alas, you can't access Seliana until you finish the base game.

05:33 * Cepheid goes on another Tempered Anja run. Needs one of it's gems.

05:34 * Cepheid looks at the name of the character that just joined a session.

05:34 <Cepheid> ...

05:34 * Cepheid reports to Valve.

05:35 <Cepheid> "Jew Hunter", and his steam name is "Die [REDACTED]"

05:37 * Ali facehooves

05:47 <Cepheid> Unfortunately, I cannot report him.  I don't have Steam Overlay enabled, so I can't view his profile to report him, and Valve discourages contacting Steam Support directly for it.

05:48 <Cepheid> Whatever.

05:48 <Cepheid> I'll use direct contact anyways.

05:51 * Cepheid sighs.

05:51 * Cepheid goes to take tylenol. Is burning up.

05:59 <Cepheid> So, I figured out what that baked-on stuff is, Schism.

06:00 <Cepheid> It's lavender.

06:00 <Cepheid> Even after cleaning, it still has a faint smell of lavender oil.  My mother must have ran a mixture of water and dried lavender through it.

06:04 <Cepheid> Guh... too late to catch the headache.

06:04 <Cepheid> It's affecting me physically already.  Cold sweats, nausea, pain in the eye.

06:11 <Cepheid> Huh, there are classifications of headaches.

06:13 <Cepheid> Apparently, mine would be classified as chronic secondary.

06:18 <Cepheid> In any case, I can't remove that gunk from the humidifier.  It's melded into the bloody metal of the heating element.  So it's gonna infuse whatever water I use.  I'll need a new humidifier for myself, since using this one is more likely to aggravate my sinuses.

06:29 * Cepheid fights an Anjanath. Suddenly, a Bazelgeuse literally just drops down right on top of him.

07:24 <Cepheid> My problem at the moment is that, despite taking tylenol for the pain, I am left with the nausea, a crushing feeling all over my head, and dizziness.  I need to lay down, I think.

07:38 <Cepheid> I'm tempted to grab Tizzy and snuggle her under my duvet cause of her condition right now.

07:43 <ConfusionRift> Not much better, but getting there.

07:44 <Cepheid> Same.  Sinuses are wrecking me tonight.

07:48 <ConfusionRift> It went from 2 open positions, to 7, then to 10. Others are saying it's mostly mind games, but I'm honestly not in the mental state for any of that (bleep).

07:50 * ConfusionRift sighs. "Nope. Not gonna get started again."

08:32 <ConfusionRift> See, I know nothing about AOC. I heard they're making some good monitors at nice prices, but I really know nothing of them. Aside from that, there's a chance this might just be slightly worse than the one I have, but way faster.

08:34 <Cepheid> Indeed.

08:35 <Cepheid> For that price, I'd say go for it.  144Hz monitors tend to be inexplicably expensive.

08:38 * Ali flops over ConfusionRift

08:38 * ConfusionRift patpats Ali.

08:42 <PinkieShy> A guy that's been in china spreading the good word about Jesus came back like he does every year :)

08:42 <PinkieShy> He told us something more about the part of china he lives in.. He said over there the realization of big brother always watching.. Is so scary real.. Like every street, every buildings and even some homes.. Have cameras on them..

08:43 <PinkieShy> Along with face recognize stuff required everywhere..

08:44 <PinkieShy> He said his internet got shut off over there until he went in to sign up again with face recognize registered to his account..

08:44 <PinkieShy> China sounds like a nightmare :(

08:44 <Cepheid> ConfusionRift: https://twitter.com/LuminousOcean/status/1219125140841213952?s=19

08:45 <ConfusionRift> Eerm, what's up with Tizzy? o_0

08:46 <PinkieShy> Anyways.. Good Night. :)

08:46 *** Quits: PinkieShy (coolm@Pony-ck81je.67-212-45-net.sccoast.net) (Quit: Leaving)

08:46 <Cepheid> Her fur was all matted.  So the parents shaved her.

08:47 <ConfusionRift> Ooooooh.

08:48 <Cepheid> Feels as weird as it looks.

08:48 <Cepheid> A cat is not meant to have fur that short.

08:48 <ConfusionRift> Yeah, poor thing. Especially since... I think Tizzy is the longest fur one, right?

08:49 <ConfusionRift> It's also been cold, not so sure about over there.

08:50 <Cepheid> Yeah.  The long-haired one, and yes it is cold.

08:56 <ConfusionRift> Aaah! (forgot if he does buy this... he'll need a DP cable)

08:58 <Cepheid> Oh, yeah.  For some reason HDMI doesn't do 60+Hz on such monitors.

09:00 <ConfusionRift> That's not all. Higher end GPUs only have one HDMI port, and the rest are DP. So, if I want to use both, I NEED a DP cable anyways. Getting an adapter would be wasteful, especially since the price would be the same, and performance would suffer.

09:00 * Cepheid runs the worlds dirtiest humidifier in a vain attempt to improve the humidity in his room.

09:01 <Cepheid> Yeah.  That said I like DP.  Something about it that just seems, I dunno, better.

09:01 <ConfusionRift> You got a case of molasses on that thing. It's like that one shopvac someone filled and overused, then forgot to empty in ages.

09:01 <Cepheid> https://twitter.com/LuminousOcean/status/1219121144730738689?s=19 This is the humidifier.

09:02 <Cepheid> My mother put some mixture of plants and water through it.  Leading to that.

09:02 <ConfusionRift> ...oh...huh?!

09:02 <ConfusionRift> That's... that's not... no comments.

09:02 <Cepheid> I cleaned most of it, but the stuff on the heating element is permanent now.

09:03 <ConfusionRift> It's probably charred on the metal parts, on top of what might be oxide.

09:03 <ConfusionRift> So yeah, it's seasoned.

09:03 <Cepheid> And the parents won't get a new one.  I'm just gonna wait for my next GST tax cheque to come and get a new one myself.

09:04 <Cepheid> Hopefully using it doesn't make me sick(er) in the meantime.  I have to do something about the humidity in my room.

09:08 <Cepheid> My skin is so dry I itch everywhere, and my right hand is covered in hives that are cracking open and bleeding.

09:09 <Cepheid> And lets not talk of the static electricity.  I'm getting shocks so bad my legs and arms go numb.

09:09 <ConfusionRift> Getting something like that in here as well.

09:16 <Cepheid> Gah.  Finally.

09:16 <Cepheid> Head's feeling better.

09:20 <Cepheid> Also, do I have you on steam?

09:21 <ConfusionRift> They're really going at it with MHW. And... don't think so. We were only teaming during the Space Engineers time, but that was about it.

09:21 <Cepheid> Right.

09:21 <Cepheid> I should add you at some point.

09:22 * ConfusionRift nods.

09:22 <Cepheid> https://steamcommunity.com/id/CepheidVariable This is me.

09:22 <ConfusionRift> Request sent. :P

09:23 <Cepheid> So I see.

09:23 <Cepheid> Hum, an Arch-Tempered Xeno'jiva has appeared, how about... No.

09:27 <ConfusionRift> I normally show as offline, due to some others being a bit bothersome. But if I'm on here, then I'm on, basically. :P

09:31 <Cepheid> Heh.

09:46 <Cepheid> Why you never use automated translation:  Facebook's system translated the Chinese president's name as Mr. ****hole.

09:50 <ConfusionRift> Pfffftttt!

09:57 <Cepheid> In other news, I think my humidifier is busted.  Won't run.

09:57 <Cepheid> I wonder why.

09:57 <ConfusionRift> HmmmmmMMMMMMM.

09:58 <Cepheid> Heh.

10:08 <Cepheid> Heh.

10:08 <Cepheid> Then Arch-Tempered Bazelgeuse.

10:09 <ConfusionRift> "Oh, we meet aga-" (nuke) "Oooooohnooooo."

10:11 <Cepheid> Seriously though, I now consider Bazel to be worse than Jho.  At least Jho doesn't quite literally slam his entire mass down on top of you without warning or any indication he's there.

10:12 <ConfusionRift> I have killed Deviljo on the first go, with a bit of issues. No matter what I do or try, Bazelgeuse is just a problem.

10:14 <Cepheid> Even properly prepared with anti-blast, fire resist, and MR1 gear, a single Bazelgeuse, untempered, is still a pain in the arse.  All the explosions, the screechy roar, and to think, I needed a GEM from him.

10:15 <Cepheid> I got insanely lucky.  First and only hunt, he dropped a gem.

10:26 * Cepheid screams and itches everywhere.

10:28 <Cepheid> I really need to get a proper video of Spitfire rushing into the living room.

10:29 <Cepheid> It's adorbs.

10:32 <Cepheid> He basically comes to harass me in the kitchen, and when he sees me walking out of the kitchen, he rushes out into the living room, meowing in a weird manner and then gets down low on the carpet and claws it, and drags himself along the floor.

10:33 <Cepheid> Waiting for me to pet and rub him vigorously.  I apply tons of force when I do so.

10:49 * ConfusionRift nods.

10:49 <ConfusionRift> Sorry, was making some eggs.

10:49 <Cepheid> No prob.

10:49 <Cepheid> Everyone has to eat. :P

10:54 <Cepheid> Apparently my parents are going to shave more of Tizzy later.

10:54 <Cepheid> They stopped where they did 'cause stress.

10:55 <ConfusionRift> Guh.

10:57 <Cepheid> Well, we have to do it.

10:58 <Cepheid> Guh.

10:58 <Cepheid> Headache is coming back.

10:58 <Cepheid> I can feel it.

11:00 * Cepheid takes more tylenol NOW before it gets worse.

11:03 <Cepheid> Whoops.  Left myself logged in on MHWorld, and got booted due to inactivity.

11:04 <Cepheid> What was-  Ah, right, Legiana claw.

11:05 <Cepheid> By the by, not sure if it's just my luck, but I find the game's been dropping me off away from camp far more frequently than usual. >.>;  I keep ending up in front of the monster.  That was a change with 10.12, but I'm not sure if the frequency changed.

11:06 * ConfusionRift shrugs.

11:10 <Cepheid> When your beatdown of a monster is so bad, it turns from a hunt into pre-meditated murder.

11:11 <ConfusionRift> Hehehe.

11:12 <Cepheid> Hum.  Daora Claw+ x2.

11:17 <Cepheid> Hum.  I got a poison horn, but... I can do better, if I go hunt a MR Pukei-Pukei.

11:32 <Cepheid> For the record, yes, MR is hard.  Not as hard as G-rank when starting, admittedly.  Better progression of enemy strength.

11:32 <Cepheid> But it's up there.  A Kula-Ya-Ku can survive a good 7-8 minutes against 4 hunters.
