20:23.55Irskaad=P
20:23.55catface~How are you tday?
20:23.56infobotcatface: I think you lost me on that one
20:24.20catface~Well, arnt you rude?
20:24.29catface^no reply
20:24.30IrskaadI am good, Kraw are a bit dissapointed, tahars and Iteok are Partying, Asgordians are partying too.
20:25.04catfaceThe Pepsi are mad at the Tahars
20:25.17IrskaadTahars think that is ridiculous.
20:26.15catfaceYeah
20:26.55IrskaadTahars know where New Kindworlda is. If Pepis keep angering the Tahars, they will tell the Tyrekians where new Kindworlda is.
20:28.06catfaceOr they could tell the ULE, they are always looking for new slaves >:3
20:28.24Irskaad=D Tahars don't know that empire.
20:29.06catfaceThe ULE don't know the Tahars.
20:32.27catface~cry
20:32.27infobotACTION cries and sobs until she nearly drowns in her own tears.
20:33.31catfaceInfobox is a girl?
20:36.53IrskaadYep.
20:37.17catfaceWow...
20:37.30catfaceIt...cant be...
20:37.35catface~are you a girl?
20:37.42Irskaad~girl
20:37.42infobot"If you don't believe in the existence of evil, you have a lot to learn", or very exciting to be with, enjoying and best of all they are very soft :)
20:37.47catfacefail
20:38.09catface~eh?
20:38.09infobot'eh' is synonymous with the american dirivative 'huh', but unlike 'huh', 'eh' can be used without making one sound like a freaking idiot. .  Western Sahara
20:38.31IrskaadSo, How's the ULE?
20:39.15catfaceGood
20:39.23catfacestill in a civil war
20:39.38IrskaadWhy are they in a civil war?
20:40.06catfaceSome of them wanted freedom.
20:40.21IrskaadFreedom? I thought the ULE was free.

20:41.17IrskaadWhy aren't they free?
20:41.48catfaceThey are a totalitarian state
20:42.07IrskaadSo every order falls on the hands of 1 person?
20:42.51catfaceNo that's a Despotism

20:45.21IrskaadJust like North Korea.

21:16.18UmHello Randomness.
21:16.43The_RandomnessHello.
21:17.53UmWhy do you think the URC is not higher in Tier 2, Wormulon says it is because they don't have megastructures. I don't really want to have megastructures in the URC personally.
21:18.10The_RandomnessI don't want any megastructures.
21:19.31UmI agree. Personally, I think that if your empire has a large population and colonies it should be just as good as a megastructure.
21:20.52The_RandomnessWhat's the point of megastructures anyway?
21:21.51The_RandomnessYou'll need to pour an incredible amount of energy into ones like your Genesis to prevent it from collapsing in on itself that there wouldn't be much left to use.
21:22.40UmI only made the Genesis because making megastructures is apparently the only way to get higher on that list.
21:23.04The_RandomnessWhat list?
21:23.21UmThe Comparison list.
21:23.32The_RandomnessNo, that's not the only way.
21:24.11UmWhy would a civilization waste resources in building them anyway. I could think of more useful things to do with the resources.
21:24.18The_RandomnessExactly.
21:24.33UmWell, according to Wormulon's blog it is.
21:24.52UmParticularly beyond the world builder section.
21:25.02The_RandomnessGuess what portion of the Salsetthe Republic's population is civilians.
21:25.29The_RandomnessAlso, another thing I'm sick of is stuff like LotG's "Galaxy Burner".
21:25.33Um25%
21:25.43The_RandomnessLower, much lower.
21:26.02UmYes, I tried to talk him out of it, but he is very argumentative.
21:26.07Um5%
21:26.18The_RandomnessIt's probably around 2.5%.
21:27.16UmReally? What about the rest?
21:28.00The_RandomnessThere's engineers, SDFS members, Salsetthe Intelligence, and some others.
21:28.12The_RandomnessSDFS = Salsetthe Defence Forces
21:28.24The_RandomnessGah, typo, that should be SDF
21:28.39The_RandomnessSDFS is the starship prefix.
21:29.16UmI see, I will just find you a link to my conversation with Luc about the Galaxy Burner.
21:29.38The_RandomnessSalsetthe Intelligence is probably the largest out of them.
21:29.45UmAlso, you can back me up on Wormulons blog if you wish.
21:29.45The_RandomnessOh, I bet that went far.
21:30.31The_RandomnessYou need superlasers to get anything through his thick skull sometimes.
21:31.34The_RandomnessWhere the zark is Wormulon?
21:31.51UmA superlaser? I would have thought more.
21:31.57The_RandomnessGood point.
21:33.25The_RandomnessLucario doesn't respond well to any sort of criticism other than positive criticism.
21:34.37The_RandomnessHave I told you about what the Salsetthe do to any prisoners they take?
21:34.39Umhttp://spore.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Lucario_of_the_Gods/The_Official_LotG_Q%26A_2 Go to Page 7.
21:34.59UmNo, I don't think you have? Tell me!
21:35.29The_RandomnessFirst, they extract any useful information out of them with mind probes.
21:36.07The_RandomnessThen, they put their bodies into "stasis" chambers and submit them to a virtual reality that changes, depending on their intelligence, but it's a lot like Portal.
21:36.38UmInteresting, who would they test this on?
21:36.58The_RandomnessAll prisoners that survive the mind probes get submitted to it.
21:37.10Ums very complex, like most Zazane technology. But the simplest way to explain it is that it absorbs energies from the space around it and stores it in a central core, waiting to be unleashed. With the energy all compressed, when the Burner is activated, the energies fly towards a galaxy's core, where the energies create a massive energy wave that spreads across the galaxy, reacting with stars and making them go supernova.- Lucario.
21:37.30The_RandomnessLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL^>9000
21:37.49UmIt makes perfect sense!
21:37.55The_RandomnessI know, right?
21:38.06*** join/#sporewiki Creatureboy11 (1869d0b1@gateway/web/freenode/ip.24.105.208.177)
21:38.09*** part/#sporewiki Creatureboy11 (1869d0b1@gateway/web/freenode/ip.24.105.208.177)
21:38.19UmReason why I messed up the sentence is cos I had things on my mind. Most energies that are stored in the Galaxy Burner are from the Zazane's previous universe, which is mostly unaffected by black holes and could either destroy it, turn it into a white hole or just simply shut it.
21:38.27The_RandomnessWe should conclude this conversation before something bad happens.
21:38.52UmYeah, I agree. But what is your view on the Planet Buster?
21:39.12The_RandomnessThere's not much of a point to 'sploding a planet.
21:39.24The_RandomnessPlanet glassing is also something silly.
21:40.03UmIf you have the power to destroy a planet, ground invasions are redundant.
21:40.14The_RandomnessGround invasions are silly too.
21:40.16UmThus saving money.
21:41.11UmPersonally, I would station a fleet in low orbit, and start nuking the planet starting with major cities, then the ice caps.
21:41.46The_RandomnessPhoton torpedoes could easily level a city in very little time.
21:41.55The_RandomnessNukes are inefficient.
21:43.03*** join/#sporewiki Wormulon (58693491@gateway/web/freenode/ip.88.105.52.145)
21:43.06Wormulonhi
21:43.28UmI was referring to a civilization that cannot use photon torpedoes.
21:43.54Um@Random: A fifty megaton bomb could level an entire city in a short time.
21:44.08WormulonCan I just say, there are certain advantages of megastructures as well, even if the costs are high.
21:44.33WormulonMost are fictional, especially the bigger ones like Dyson spheres
21:45.11The_RandomnessWell, it took you long enough to get on here.
21:45.34WormulonBut orbital elevators, dyson swarms (not spheres) and matrioskka brains could be very useful.
21:45.42WormulonDinner.
21:45.48The_RandomnessWe just concluded a small conversation about LotG's "Galaxy Burner", and began one about planetary destruction.
21:45.50WormulonAND EDITING TOO
21:45.51The_RandomnessAh, I see.
21:45.58WormulonCaps, soryy.
21:46.15UmBut I think that while they could have advantages, it may be more useful to concentrate on more conventional methods of technological advancement.
21:46.17WormulonI see little point in full planetary destruction
21:46.26The_RandomnessOrbital elevators are a smart idea.
21:46.36WormulonBut those conventional methods might not be enough
21:46.46WormulonAnd are easier for more advanced civs
21:46.50The_RandomnessYes, planet glassing and planet busters are kind of silly.
21:46.57The_RandomnessEspecially planet glassing.
21:47.14WormulonBut most megastructures are overexaggerated versions in size used in science fiction compared to real scientific concepts
21:47.32The_RandomnessYes, look at C-021 and stuff.
21:47.38The_RandomnessThat's the stuff I don't want to see.
21:47.40UmBut as I said, the Galactic Empire uses megastructures in small amounts, most of its might is concentrated on military might.
21:47.45WormulonI'm sick of megastructures, to tell you the truth
21:47.48The_Randomness^
21:47.58Um^
21:48.00The_Randomness^
21:48.22The_Randomness^
21:48.22Um^
21:48.22Um^
21:48.22UmVictory!
21:48.22WormulonThats why Statiuon Halcyon is not one.  20 miles is easily long enough
21:48.55The_RandomnessYeah, Halcyon is fine.
21:49.59WormulonThese megastructures are more feasible - http://www.orionsarm.com/eg-article/45f9918702a95
21:50.09The_RandomnessAnyway, for any sort of mass destruction, the Salsetthe use a high yield plasma torpedo to pretty much burn away the atmosphere of a planet, if it's thick enough.
21:50.24UmYes it is. However, with time someone will make a 500 AU spacestation with a universe destroying missile.
21:50.40UmThe Universal Banger.
21:50.50WormulonI've been a harsh fiction critic lately
21:51.13The_RandomnessI'm a somewhat harsh critic to begin with.
21:51.17WormulonI've not let BNSCLeader use my scale to hop two tiers in a month.
21:51.39WormulonIf he doesn't like it, he doesn't have to use it.
21:51.51UmBNSCs Tier Hopping was too quick.
21:52.07WormulonAnd I hope my ship dimensions has put a few more things right.
21:52.29UmIt may just give some people more ideas.
21:52.34WormulonI think its a bit mean on other empires, and he claimed the DCP simplky gave their tech, which is a blatant lie.
21:53.04The_RandomnessThe Salsetthe Republic wouldn't even think about giving away classified information or technology.
21:53.06WormulonThats what really annoyed me, the DCP don't do that, and i've already explained it.
21:53.43UmI think he is eleven.
21:53.51WormulonI think there was a lot of confusement though.  Thats why I made a new tiers blog.
21:54.20WormulonBaseed on realistic measurements...
21:54.23The_RandomnessEven a small video (in a format similar to this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1oVpE40V9rE&feature=channel ) might result in catastrophic consequences if it was given to a less advanced empire.
21:55.31The_RandomnessEspecially if it was instruction on how to build something.
21:55.43The_Randomness*instructions
21:56.20Umhttp://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20090821035109/starwars/images/3/3c/PlanetaryBombardment-SWGTCG.jpg This is the URC's preferred method of planetary bombardment.
21:56.51The_RandomnessIt would be far easier to do something like what the Salsetthe Republic does.
21:57.31UmPerhaps...
21:58.18The_RandomnessHowever, things are complicated with planetary shield arrays and stuff.
21:59.16UmNo goodbye?
21:59.51The_RandomnessWho knows.

22:00.36Creatureboy11WORMY!
22:00.38Wormulonhi
22:00.53Creatureboy11How R U?
22:00.56Wormulonmy connection has perfect signal strength
22:01.00WormulonI'm fine
22:01.11Creatureboy11I'm just great! (REALLY! :D)
22:01.28Wormulonwhen I check, and when I ask my computer to solve it it is an unknown error and its getting on my nerves
22:01.58UmWormulon? This is probably annoying you now but would the URC not be a bit higher? I mean its entire military personal nearly rivals the population of the Sylits.
22:01.59The_RandomnessAnyway, I'm curious as to what you meant by "transitional" for the Salsetthe Republic.
22:02.00WormulonWhere was i?
22:02.35Creatureboy11If anyone wants to ask about the Pepis, i'll be on #creatureboy11
22:02.38*** part/#sporewiki Creatureboy11 (1869d0b1@gateway/web/freenode/ip.24.105.208.177)
22:02.40WormulonThe Tollans also explained in Stargate why they never share their knowlege.
22:02.56WormulonI meant the above section World Builders or transitional
22:03.04WormulonAs in Tier 2/1
22:03.18The_RandomnessI think they're somewhere between Tier 2/1.
22:03.34The_RandomnessBut their place seems more fitting in Tier 2.
22:04.13WormulonI suppose the URC on on the upperlimit before World Builders too.
22:04.17The_RandomnessThey'll stay as incredibly advanced and adaptable, but they're not interested in large structures.
22:04.47WormulonOr really advanced tech,  Like exotic matter-based stuff
22:05.06The_RandomnessIt's all classified.
22:05.15WormulonUnless hypermatter can be considered exotic
22:05.27The_RandomnessI also like what I thought of for their allies.
22:05.30WormulonI often like to think it is.
22:05.54The_RandomnessIt's either you're a complete member, or you're not an ally of the Salsetthe Republic.
22:05.57UmI think it is exotic, it is only found in hyperspace, another dimension.
22:06.08WormulonHmm, sounds tachyonic?
22:06.14The_RandomnessYeah, it does.
22:06.22WormulonLike it has imaginary mass.
22:06.29WormulonOut of sinc
22:06.33*** join/#sporewiki Creatureboy11 (1869d0b1@gateway/web/freenode/ip.24.105.208.177)
22:06.40The_RandomnessI don't like the "Want to be allies?" "Yes!" sort of thing.
22:06.53The_RandomnessIt's more complicated than that, especially for the Salsetthe Republic.
22:06.56Creatureboy11You don't? Why?
22:07.02The_RandomnessIt's foolish.
22:07.11Creatureboy11I see the error of my ways...
22:07.18UmDoes that change anything?
22:07.25Creatureboy11UM2K9!
22:07.34The_RandomnessChange what?
22:07.51Wormulonhttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d4PCnEXYTkA&feature=related Cut to 5:37
22:08.01WormulonIts about tachyon travel.
22:08.10The_RandomnessI love The Universe. :D
22:09.28WormulonSo do I!  Tachyons are very important to some DCP technology
22:09.58UmWould Hypermatter be considered a tachyon?
22:10.21The_RandomnessThat reminds me of a warp bubble.
22:11.31Creatureboy11COOL!
22:11.34Wormulon@Um:Perhaps
22:11.59WormulonIts just that tachyons are like vacuum bubbles
22:11.59Creatureboy11I play "Sid Meier's Civilization IV" now, but I wish they had that to go to Alpha Centauri. COOLIO!
22:12.30UmBye everyone!
22:12.33WormulonIn "hyperspace", there is true vacuums and falsevacuums, which can arise into universes.
22:12.35Creatureboy11Bye!
22:12.38Wormulonbye.
22:12.51Creatureboy11Wormy; you know ALOT! Where do you get this?
22:13.11WormulonDo I scare users away sometimes when i mention science.  I think I should calm it a bit.  be honest.
22:13.25The_RandomnessI could tell you everything, but I don't have enough time, and I'm not allowed to.
22:13.30Creatureboy11No; not scare em away.
22:13.50Wormulon@Cb11:A lifetime of personel study.
22:13.53The_RandomnessPeople think realism is something that gets abused, then thrown out the window.
22:13.55Creatureboy11D***!
22:13.58The_RandomnessIn fiction.
22:14.17The_RandomnessProbably just the second one.
22:14.29Creatureboy11I think I like the fields of Biology and a 'lil bit of history.
22:14.46Creatureboy11But those are fields; I like art mostly. :)
22:14.48WormulonI am autistic, often, autistic people have brains very good at absorbing science and and classifying stuff.
22:14.56Creatureboy11LIKE ME!
22:15.02WormulonOr what, they are interested in.
22:15.19WormulonI'm always listing, arranging, rearranging in my mind.
22:15.20Creatureboy11I guess we are kinda related (by having the same condition).
22:15.32WormulonI have aspergers.
22:15.41WormulonWhat do you have?
22:15.42Creatureboy11Same spectrum my mom says.
22:16.03The_RandomnessCan we get back on topic now?
22:16.11Creatureboy11I have just plain Autism, but close to the aspurgers line. Every year until I was 8 they kept switching me yearly.
22:16.21Creatureboy11Ok Random.
22:16.26The_RandomnessDiscussing genetic maladies like autism bores me.
22:16.28Creatureboy11aspergers*
22:16.39WormulonBut the thing is, when people aren't interested in what I'm saying, I'm used yo them switching off fro me.
22:16.48Wormulonokay Random.
22:16.50The_RandomnessAlso, it's an SEP to me.
22:17.00The_Randomness(Somebody Else's Problem)
22:17.02Creatureboy11Maybe we can talk about this on your "IRC talk page"
22:17.07Creatureboy11@Wormy*
22:17.15The_RandomnessWormulon, can you come onto IRC from now on?
22:17.16WormulonEveryone is said to be auistic in some way or another,.
22:17.22The_RandomnessYes, I know that.
22:17.36Creatureboy11Did not know. :)
22:17.36Wormuloninstead of blogs at all.
22:17.40The_RandomnessNow, let's get back on topic about whatever we were talking about before.
22:17.46The_RandomnessForums > User blogs
22:17.52Creatureboy11Tachyons and that such, you mean.
22:18.07The_Randomnessm= i
22:18.11WormulonUser bogs are easier for newer users though
22:18.16Creatureboy11blogs*
22:18.20The_RandomnessI despise user blogs.
22:18.28Wormulonbogs lol
22:18.36The_RandomnessI think the forum format is nicer, in my opinion.
22:18.46WormulonForums are probably better.
22:18.52The_RandomnessUser blogs are like some bogs for edit count.
22:19.02WormulonBut I suppose its a communiy descision in the end.
22:19.05Creatureboy11@Wormy: If you wanna talk about "our" condition; on the top of this page click the red text.
22:19.10The_RandomnessThen it'll get nowhere. :(
22:19.26WormulonNo, I'm alright, another time CB
22:19.30The_RandomnessSimply, people are too attached to their !@#$ blogs that they won't want to give them up.
22:19.33Creatureboy11OK. :)
22:20.00WormulonLook I'm on a neutral point of view, which admins should be, I feel this is a community descision in the end.
22:20.17The_RandomnessI think I'm a worthy candidate for adminship.
22:20.23WormulonI find the annoying too, but I can't resist not using them.
22:20.30The_RandomnessEveryone else is too wrapped up in their fiction and blogs.
22:20.45WormulonNot me.  I want to edit namespace
22:21.01WormulonBut its harder when I have had a long day.
22:21.09The_RandomnessDinner time, I must be going.
22:21.15The_RandomnessNo more shoutbox for me.
22:21.17Wormulonbye.
22:21.26The_RandomnessMake sure you come onto IRC from now on.
