02:07 <nightwind> yes only schism because I could turn on my switch right now and give you a couple million bells

02:18 <Schism> I know you could, but where's the joy in that?  :P

02:18 * Schism snuggles the nightwind.

02:27 <Schism> "Surely, Jen, you could sell a mere 200 more weeds..."

02:34 <Schism> oh god.  Flower crossbreeding?!

02:37 <nightwind> lol

02:37 <nightwind> yeah flower crossbreeding is a real thing

02:37 <nightwind> in animal crossing

02:50 <Schism> Mmhm.  I thought I was done with that when I stopped playing ATITD, buuuuut.

02:59 <nightwind> lol

03:00 <nightwind> certain color combinations make certain colors and its not always obvious ab0out what color will spawn if they cross breed successfully

03:00 <Schism> There's actually a genetic system.

03:00 <nightwind> yes

03:01 *** Joins: cabbage (cabbage@Pony-nu4nma.static.sonic.net)

04:00 <Finwe> Good morning, my smallish pastel-coloured equines!

04:01 <Finwe> Mlles Ali and Schism; Messrs AppleDash, Cepheid, ember, Lumindia, PinkieShy, and uni; Mrs nightwind.

04:01 * Finwe doffs his hat.

04:03 <ember> RAdm

04:03 * Ali flumps into Finwe

04:03 * ember gives a graceful nod

04:07 * Schism doffs her 8BitDo, and also takes her girlpills for the evening.

04:20 * Finwe ruffles an Ali.

04:32 <Finwe> “He’d come down for the Watch’s Hogswatch party and had poured gravy in his ears to show willing, but gargoyles got very nervy indoors at ground level and he had soon exited via the chimney and his paper squeaker had echoed out forlornly amongst the snowy rooftops all night.”

04:33 <Finwe> Poor Constable Downspout.

05:34 <Finwe> Hmm, breakfast tiem? :3

05:34 * Finwe noms on Lumindia.

05:34 <Lumindia> ah fuck... someone linked an orchestra playing the Maplestory soundtrack... Maplestory music constantly chokes me up and makes me tear up

05:37 * Ali boops Lumindia's potty mouf

05:37 * Lumindia nips at Ali D:<

05:37 <Lumindia> I'm feeling very vulnerable right now

05:37 * Lumindia hides in a corner

05:41 <Finwe> Lumindiae plango vulnera, stillantibus ocellis, quod sua michi munera, subtrahit rebellis.

05:41 <Lumindia> !link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUan98qhhhE

05:41 <DerpyBot> I need to ask Twilight about that one.

05:41 <DerpyBot> Twilight told me this video is about 「심포니 오브 메이플스토리 (Symphony of MapleStory)」 공연 실황 (Full Ver.)

05:41 * Finwe plangit vulnera Lumindiae.

05:42 <Lumindia> There's very few things that can make me cry... The OST from the early days of maplestory is one of them

05:52 <Koopz> Schism i was in the Maelstrom

05:52 <Koopz> and if it were possible, i would've taken it over

05:54 <Koopz> i'm not sure if i'd cry over listening to the MapleStory OST but i'd feel a lot of nostalgia

05:55 <Koopz> MSE was pretty much dead to me though after the Big Bang update ripped Henesys Hunting Grounds I from my grasp

05:55 <Koopz> RAdm. Finwe o7

05:57 <Finwe> Capt Koopz.

05:57 <Finwe> o7

06:01 <Lumindia> For me, it's actually less about the music, and more about remembering all those dozens upon dozens of friends I made playing that game, and how I've lost contact with ALL of them

06:01 <Lumindia> and also longing for the days where I only had to worry about kid stuff

06:01 <Lumindia> The music is just what triggers that emotional response

06:06 <Koopz> i was already too old to play this game when i started xD

06:07 <Koopz> didn't stop me from catching up on having eightgrader's syndrome

06:07 <Lumindia> I started playing it in middleschool

06:07 <Lumindia> I played before Ludibrium and the Third Job was introduced

06:08 <Lumindia> back when Kerning PQ was the only PQ available

06:08 <Koopz> i started playing around the time when the Europe version was in Closed Beta

06:08 <Koopz> since i couldn't play there, i downloaded Global

06:09 <Koopz> and since i didn't know what to do i spent my stat points in STR while having chosen to be a mage

06:10 <Lumindia> oof

06:10 <Koopz> after some time MSE opened up and i played that one instead. Called my character "Kriegsherr" literally translating to "Warlord"

06:11 <Koopz> and whenever i was chilling somewhere instead of leveling i put on the good ol Toymaker's Hat

06:11 * Finwe nodnods.

06:11 <Koopz> https://i.imgur.com/IXQTSbo.png

06:12 <Finwe> Difficult to say whether it's German or Swedish.

06:12 <Lumindia> but yeah, hearing Lith Harbor, Henesys, and Aquarium from that orchestra...

06:12 <Lumindia> got me crying like a baby from nostalgia and emotions

06:12 <Koopz> F5555555555555555555555

06:12 <Koopz> no wait... F44444444444

06:12 <Lumindia> yep

06:12 <Lumindia> F4 indeed

06:13 <Lumindia> I'ms urprised I still remember what that even means

06:14 <Lumindia> anyway, back to bed... woke up because my neck was killing me, so I popped some ibuprofin an hour ago

06:15 * Finwe massages Lumindia's neck.

07:20 <Finwe> Mr Golden.

07:20 <Golden> Welp I am pissed

07:20 * Finwe doffs his hat.

07:21 <Finwe> Miss TwilightSparkle.

07:21 * Finwe doffs his hat.

07:22 <Golden> Left my Ps5 on playing Stanley Parable from 11:55 pm monday night to 12:30 am tonight for the commitment trophy, and it didn't  pop for me

07:22 <Golden> 24 hours wasted

07:25 <Golden> And that trophy can only be gotten for "Playing the Entire Duration of a Tuesday."

07:31 <Finwe> They saw through your cheapish ruse. o3o

07:43 <Golden> No for that is how the trophy is supposed to be gotten

07:45 *** Joins: ConfusionRift (ConfusionRi@Pony-oc8.srt.98.172.IP)

07:45 *** ChanServ sets mode: +o ConfusionRift

07:45 <ConfusionRift> Hello everypony.

07:45 <Finwe> Lt Cdr ConfusionRift.

07:45 <Finwe> o7

07:46 <Golden> Hey confusion

07:46 <ConfusionRift> RAdm. Finwe. (salutes)

07:46 * ConfusionRift wavies at Golden.

07:47 * Golden flops grumbling a bit.

07:49 * ConfusionRift grumbles a bit as well.

07:51 <Golden> The commitment trophy from Stanley Parable seems to be bugged for everyone on consoles.

07:51 <Golden> For there are a lot of people saying it did not pop for them despite leaving their system of choice on with the game running for the 24 hours.

07:54 <ConfusionRift> Is it the Tuesday one?

07:54 <Golden> Yup

07:54 *** TwilightSparkle is now known as Ali

07:54 *** ChanServ sets mode: +qo Ali Ali

07:54 <Finwe> Miss Ali.

07:54 * Finwe doffs his hat.

07:54 * Ali flops over ConfusionRift and boops Finwe

07:55 * Finwe scrunches his muzzle.

07:55 <Golden> I left Stanley idling in his office while I slept. Woke up, and did a few runs in the game both with, and without the bucket.

07:55 <Finwe> *scrunch*

07:55 * ConfusionRift huggles ali

07:55 <Golden> When it passed midnight tonight. No damn trophy

07:55 * Ali pushes Golden to the broom closet, if that is still a thing

07:55 <Golden> It is

07:56 <Ali> Either that or follow THE LINE!

07:56 <Golden> Both are still available in Ultra Deluxe

07:56 <Ali> So is it a new game or just an update to the original with more endings?

08:00 <ConfusionRift> More polished, a few changes to the endings, fixed a few bugs, added more endings (mostly while holding a certain object), a few other achievements, and some other features I haven't really found yet.

08:01 <Golden> Update with more content and endings

08:02 <ConfusionRift> Golden: It's not the Ultra Deluxe, it's The Stanley Parable 2. :P

08:02 <Golden> Like there is a bucket you can get during the new content route, and once picked up, it gives you the ability to take it with you on different routes

08:04 <Golden> Anyway I am really angry that the trophy for me did not pop. It is THE LAST ONE I NEED TO GET THE PLATINUM

08:05 <ConfusionRift> ...lies.

08:05 * ConfusionRift points at Super Go Outside. "LIES!"

08:07 <ConfusionRift> Oh yeah, and it's also on consoles, as they said it would. :P

08:07 <Golden> I simply started the game, quit, and changed my system clock to 2032

08:08 <ConfusionRift> Can't do it on PC, because Windows is trash.

08:08 * Finwe offers the MacOS installation media to ConfusionRift.

08:08 <Finwe> o3o

08:09 *** Joins: Apple_Jack (Prius@Pony-8l5lpb.ipv6.telus.net)

08:09 * ConfusionRift grabs the disc, and tosses it like a frisbie. "No Apple junk here!"

08:10 * Finwe hides behind his Mac Pro.

08:10 <ConfusionRift> The problem is that certain software freaks out when there are drastic changes on the system time clock, and the OS starts trying to look for things within that time frame, which don't exist.

08:10 *** Quits: Sunrise_Flare (Prius@Pony-d7dnvg.bchsia.telus.net) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

08:11 <ConfusionRift> It happened when I tried to get the Go Outside achievement in the original.

08:12 <ConfusionRift> And then when you set it back to the actual time, it freaks out again, because all files changed to a future time frame. It'll try to look for updates that are either installed or don't exist, and gags at future to past changes. It's a mess.

08:14 <ConfusionRift> It sounds crazy and makes no sense. But it is what happened.

08:15 <Golden> Yikes

08:15 *** Quits: uni (uni@Pony-vsu1ja.ucl.ac.uk) (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)

08:17 <ConfusionRift> Gonna try to get it at some point later. Wanna figure out what the hell happened.

08:22 *** Quits: Ali (Ali@Pony-gfdtdf.4nua.5fca.1702.2600.IP) (Quit: Leaving)

08:22 <ConfusionRift> Aaaw. Guessing she was tired.

08:36 <Golden> Even the reddit community is baffled as a good handful of them who did wait the full 24 hours legitimately did not get it.

08:41 <ConfusionRift> I think it looks to make sure the game is on from 12am Tuesday to 12am Wednesday... crud. That's one I don't have. Will have to try next week.

08:41 <ConfusionRift> Or change to clock to Tuesday and leave it running.

08:42 <ConfusionRift> But yeah, a lot of people have not got it, because it's finicky.

08:53 <Golden> Peoplenare tweeting at crows crows crows thinking it is bugged

08:56 <ConfusionRift> It's finicky and very picky.

09:00 <Golden> Which a trophy/achievement should not be

09:02 * ConfusionRift shrugs, has seen worse.

09:02 * ConfusionRift also points at Unachievable.

09:03 <ConfusionRift> How would that work on console?

09:03 <Golden> That was removed for consoles

09:03 <ConfusionRift> Of course. :P

09:13 <Golden> Yup
