| 20:55.14 | morgoth1145 | Okay, so we have TM |
| 20:55.18 | morgoth1145 | We have Wormulon |
| 20:55.43 | morgoth1145 | My gut says no to TM, but that's just because of how annoying he was at the beginning |
| 20:56.30 | morgoth1145 | pokes Ose to make sure that Ose knows that he's talking |
| 20:56.59 | morgoth1145 | I know TM mentioned being admin on multiple wiki's, so he might have more experience than Wormulon. Do you happen to know about that? |
| 21:02.09 | Ose | .back |
| 21:02.10 | morgothBotPy | Welcome back, Ose. |
| 21:02.26 | Ose | tbh I don't think experience matters |
| 21:02.57 | morgoth1145 | True |
| 21:02.58 | Ose | afaik neither you nor oluap had any significant experience when I promoted you |
| 21:03.22 | morgoth1145 | I'm not saying that it'll weigh in, I'm just trying to think of stuff that might weigh in to be fair to them |
| 21:03.49 | Ose | what has dissapointed me is that the vommunity doesn't seem very enthusiastic towards new ideas |
| 21:04.18 | Ose | they don't come on here, they don't discuss much in various forum threads |
| 21:05.10 | Ose | and that has an affect on at least me, as I get disouraged |
| 21:05.10 | Ose | hence a lot of half finished projects |
| 21:06.29 | morgoth1145 | I'm not sure whether it has an affect on me negatively, but if the community seemed to care more that would probably have a positive affect |
| 21:07.14 | Ose | well |
| 21:07.59 | morgoth1145 | You would have thought thta the taxonomy project would have been elated at the new system, since it will make their lives easier in the end. Speaking of which, that used to be so strong, it just up and died. |
| 21:08.57 | morgoth1145 | What also might be happening is that the novelty of Spore is just dying. I think both TM and Wormulon mentioned on their pages that they've stopped playing Spore. And so did Oluap, I think. |
| 21:09.04 | Ose | yeah |
| 21:09.21 | Ose | there will be spikes at expansion releases though |
| 21:10.03 | Ose | perhaps they'll come up with a really interesting expansion that will make the player base grow again |
| 21:10.10 | morgoth1145 | That'd be cool |
| 21:10.11 | Ose | that's not really up to us though |
| 21:10.30 | morgoth1145 | But unless they come out with a Spore 2, I don't expect a great spike. |
| 21:10.50 | Ose | Spore MMO? :P |
| 21:11.07 | morgoth1145 | but think of the problems that creates |
| 21:11.12 | Ose | a bit far away, but a cool idea :P |
| 21:11.22 | morgoth1145 | cool idea with holes everywhere |
| 21:11.26 | Ose | yeah |
| 21:11.39 | morgoth1145 | You need the servers, you need the ops |
| 21:11.45 | morgoth1145 | you need some way to prevent griefing |
| 21:11.56 | morgoth1145 | you need to make it fun even though people are of different skills |
| 21:12.06 | Ose | well yeah, it would have to be a completely new game |
| 21:12.20 | morgoth1145 | your galaxy will be filled, so you need more of those |
| 21:12.22 | Ose | like Warcraft RTS' vs. WoW |
| 21:12.42 | morgoth1145 | I'm proud to have never touched WoW |
| 21:13.13 | morgoth1145 | Could have an Evony/OGame/Utopia type contruct |
| 21:13.27 | morgoth1145 | universe runs for a set amount of time then resets |
| 21:13.36 | morgoth1145 | could have longer and shorter universes, too |
| 21:14.54 | morgoth1145 | My one friend would love to be this protector guy who goes and aids newbies |
| 21:15.07 | morgoth1145 | (we had a Spore MMO discussion when Spore came out) |
| 21:22.26 | morgoth1145 | (Oh, right, and TM's original comment of 'It's fine if I don't get my powers now' annoyed me. Anyway, reviewing both of them.) |
| 21:27.24 | morgoth1145 | Between TM and Wormulon, they seem pretty close |
| 21:27.41 | morgoth1145 | It's hard to really pinpoint differences that seem to make a difference. |
| 21:30.01 | morgoth1145 | What are your thoughts? |
| 21:31.53 | morgoth1145 | pokes Ose in case he got sidetracked. Pings ftw. (I'd probably be doing something else by now, too. I mean, I took a while to get to that.) |
| 21:32.10 | Ose | ohai |
| 21:32.28 | Ose | well yeah, they're kinda simmillar |
| 21:32.43 | Ose | TM made a bad first impression, but has gotten better |
| 21:33.23 | morgoth1145 | They're about the same edit-wise, they both have GA (looking at their pages made me realize I was wrong, they both still seem to be playing) |
| 21:33.23 | Ose | wormulon... well, I dunno really, he's just another kinda active guy |
| 21:33.51 | morgoth1145 | The thing about that, I think we notice TM more simply because of his bad first impression |
| 21:35.28 | morgoth1145 | (Though, I am leaning towards saying TM myself) |
| 21:54.58 | Ose | nobody said we only vould pick one |
| 21:55.03 | Ose | could* |
| 22:01.48 | morgoth1145 | I know |
| 22:02.00 | morgoth1145 | I'm meaning that if we were only picking one, I'd lean towards TM |
| 22:05.53 | Ose | we'll get back to it |
| 22:05.57 | Ose | now, I go to bed |
