| 00:02.37 | Monet | I don't knwo why, but it seems rather wierd that the internet treats TOm Nook as if he deserves nomination in the Annual Heartless Bastard awards. |
| 00:02.47 | The_Randomness | Heh |
| 00:03.04 | Monet | I know why they think that, and maybe its justified. |
| 00:03.17 | Tybusen | Tom Nook is actually a really nice guy |
| 00:03.38 | Tybusen | Sure he saddles you with backbreaking debt, but he lets you pay it at your own leisure and doesn't charge interest |
| 00:04.36 | Monet | Considering that your character comes ot the town as either a migrant or a drifter depending on how you look at it, he does put a fair deal of faith in you. |
| 00:05.38 | Monet | PLus as you said, the debt can be paid iin your own time. |
| 00:05.48 | Monet | That removes lik 70% of the badness. |
| 00:06.35 | Tybusen | In the first game, he gives you a job, no interviews or applications |
| 00:06.44 | Tybusen | Just out of goodwill |
| 00:07.19 | Tybusen | If anything he's the nicest non-villager character in Animal Crossing |
| 00:07.40 | Monet | Granted your payment is in a ucrrency only applicalble to the village. |
| 00:08.38 | Monet | Like back in the old days when factory managers paid their employees in tokens that were only valid in shops the manager's company owned. |
| 00:11.02 | Monet | SO he's generous, yet manipulative. |
| 00:11.38 | Tybusen | He does force the home upgrades on you in the first games |
| 00:13.35 | Monet | "Oh you paid your morgage? That's nice, by the way I redid your house and because that cot bells I've extended your morgage" |
| 00:13.50 | Monet | cost* |
| 00:19.31 | AdmiralPanda | At least he doesn't pull things out of his scrotum. Tanooki are known to do that. |
| 00:20.38 | Monet | Ew |
| 00:24.39 | Monet | http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/6/63/Tom-nook.jpg then again...I do sense a certain "snobbishness" in his eyes. |
| 00:25.19 | Hachi_ | I always thought Tom looked more high than anything |
| 00:26.59 | Monet | That could explain his sense of logic... |
| 00:32.34 | Monet | http://www.quickmeme.com/img/f3/f3a920cfe78e86ee4171858f8ac4b6cd37fcdad4471c80a1ae8dc3393859bc77.jpg |

| 00:36.48 | Tybusen | The title of that picture |
| 00:38.54 | Monet | Hmm, the average army soldier's gear load should not exceed 110lb |
| 00:39.29 | AdmiralPanda | what's funny is that modern day soldiers aren't really carrying that much more than historical ones |
| 00:39.29 | Monet | Which in metric is just under 50kg. |
| 00:39.46 | AdmiralPanda | a modern-day ADF soldier is only carrying about 10-12kg more than a Spartan did |
| 00:39.52 | AdmiralPanda | it's just distributed differently |
| 00:40.04 | Monet | Yet the average Skyrim player can carry over 200kg. |
| 00:40.18 | AdmiralPanda | that's max carry weight rather than efficient carry weight |
| 00:40.54 | AdmiralPanda | D&D does it much better, it has light encumbrance (no penalty), medium encumbrance (penalty to movement but not endurance) and heavy encumbrance (try to move two days straight in that and you break a leg) |
| 00:42.11 | Monet | I remember in games like NWN and Icewind Dale; carrying over 70% of the maximum carry weight slowed your character to a walk, exceeding that value immobilised them. |
| 00:42.48 | Monet | Then again the dragon-tooth sword in Deus Ex is 20lb. |
| 00:42.59 | Monet | that seems rather heavy for a longsword. |
| 00:43.00 | Wormy | I agree about it being distributed differently. I remember they tried to make a selection of fit people go through what the Romans did using Roman outfit, they all struggled pathetically. |
| 00:43.41 | AdmiralPanda | that's retardedly heavy yeah, even claymores were hardly more than five kilograms |
| 00:43.45 | AdmiralPanda | or zweihanders for that matter |
| 00:43.48 | Monet | It gets better. |
| 00:43.56 | Monet | <PROTECTED> |
| 00:44.02 | Monet | I don't think this thing is made of steel. |
| 00:44.21 | AdmiralPanda | "not a sword in the traditional sense" |
| 00:44.25 | AdmiralPanda | it's a piece of edged metal |
| 00:44.34 | AdmiralPanda | how much more of a sword can it be? |
| 00:45.38 | Monet | Well its a piece of edged metal that can change its shape |
| 00:45.59 | Monet | And by that I mean its a self-sharpening sowrd |
| 00:46.01 | AdmiralPanda | if a shotel is considered a sword, anything can be |
| 00:47.26 | Monet | Although we're still taking a 3-4ft blade. |
| 00:47.53 | AdmiralPanda | how the actual fuck is a 3-4 foot blade 20lb? |
| 00:48.13 | AdmiralPanda | that's normal longsword length |
| 00:48.16 | AdmiralPanda | but like ten times the weight |

| 00:50.01 | OfficerJackal | Dang internet. :( |
| 00:50.19 | AdmiralPanda | On that topic, Fordan training swords weigh five times as much as the real deal, and the actual swords are designed to be as light as possible while still maintaining integrity |
| 00:50.42 | Monet | http://img1.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110105172453/deusex/en/images/2/2f/ZHL-U1953.png this thing is the standard-issue assault rifle used by military forces in the 2050s. |
| 00:50.47 | Monet | Standard weight: 30lb. |
| 00:50.58 | AdmiralPanda | as the great Skallagrim once said, "Anyone who can actually LIFT the buster sword, let alone use one, would be utterly devastating with a longsword." |
| 00:51.09 | AdmiralPanda | Monet: wat |
| 00:51.12 | AdmiralPanda | ankgor wat |
| 00:51.25 | Monet | I cannot comprehend that either |
| 00:51.41 | Monet | It looks about 1 1/2ft long |
| 00:52.00 | AdmiralPanda | like I'm gonna need to go to Angkor Wat to meditate on that quantity of wat |
| 00:53.25 | Monet | "standard issue assault rifle" -> weighs in at 14kg. |
| 00:53.28 | Monet | 13* |
| 00:53.37 | Monet | Is it made of solid iron or something? |
| 00:54.14 | Monet | I get the impression that wiedling that you'd risk breaking your arm or at least you'd sprain yourself |
| 00:54.19 | Tybusen | "No, no, no! You're not supposed to shoot it! You're supposed to throw it at the enemy soldiers! |
| 00:54.50 | AdmiralPanda | lol |
| 00:55.24 | AdmiralPanda | that's twice the weight of the Austeyr |
| 00:55.40 | AdmiralPanda | the risking breaking your arm part depends more on the caliber of shot |
| 00:55.55 | AdmiralPanda | in fact if it was chambered for 5.56 it'd probably be pretty comfortable to fire if you could handle the wieght |
| 00:57.23 | Monet | OKay easy one here http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110711213210/deusex/en/images/5/55/COMBATKNIFE.png standard-issue stainless-steel combat knife. |
| 00:57.27 | Monet | 4.5kg. |
| 00:57.37 | AdmiralPanda | no |
| 00:57.39 | AdmiralPanda | just no |
| 00:57.45 | AdmiralPanda | whoever created this game is actually stupid |
| 00:58.25 | Monet | The only justification I can find is that JC Denton is a cyborg so he cngas about the weights of these things. |
| 00:58.59 | AdmiralPanda | but the problem with that is you still wouldn't make something that heavy |
| 00:59.22 | AdmiralPanda | the shape of the blade is much more important than its weight |
| 01:01.18 | DrodoEmpire | test |
| 01:02.43 | Monet | Apparently throwing knives weigh the smae amount |
| 01:02.47 | Monet | Throwing knives. |
| 01:02.49 | Monet | In this game. |
| 01:04.24 | Monet | Maybe the mass values neglect to add the decimal point? |
| 01:04.58 | AdmiralPanda | throwing knives are actually heavier |
| 01:05.11 | AdmiralPanda | not by much, but heavier |
| 01:05.53 | Monet | I have another mindfuck for you |
| 01:06.04 | Monet | http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20110711215034/deusex/en/images/e/e6/Dxsword.JPG ingame text calls this a dao. |

| 01:12.48 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
| 01:15.04 | AdmiralPanda | it's not that far off from what I can tell |

| 01:18.08 | AdmiralPanda | but the blade shape seems more or less accurate to me |

| 01:22.06 | Monet | Looks painful |
| 01:23.20 | AdmiralPanda | now imagine it on fire, and about a metre and a half in length |
| 01:25.19 | AdmiralPanda | also, I wonder how hard it would be to tech up to that matter dissipation shenanigans Uriel's swords use |
| 01:25.55 | AdmiralPanda | 'cus I'm imagining that on a shield, melting someone's face with a bash |
| 01:28.11 | Monet | Nasty. |
| 01:28.49 | Monet | Techwise hmm...i've sort-of varied it over time abotu the exact nature. |
| 01:29.27 | Monet | I suppose one possibility is the sword is sheathed in a GUT field. |
| 01:30.39 | Monet | And given the generator is built into the blade, traditional metalforging is probably out of the question. |

| 02:08.13 | Hachi_ | Aye, twas sad day returning to that village |
| 02:09.16 | OluapPlayer | I dare say I prefer the new Stickerbrush Symphony over the original |

| 02:10.06 | Monet | On the upside, is it kinda fun when the authoritarian shades of the DI come to light. |
| 02:12.09 | Angrybirds | Monet: The DI also have NO idea what they're talking about. The situation is a lot more complicated than that. |
| 02:12.23 | Monet | I realise now I focked up. |
| 02:12.24 | Angrybirds | So, yeah, France is kind of like, >.< |
| 02:12.46 | Angrybirds | Eh, you can always change it, but it seems in character. |
| 02:13.07 | Monet | I...sorta missed the part where the EAA explicitly asked France for help |
| 02:13.19 | Angrybirds | Whoops :P |
| 02:13.44 | Angrybirds | Because not many others would be paying enough attention to the conflict to realize that it's actually a foreign invasion, not a rebellion. |

| 02:14.17 | Monet | rioting in a foreig ncountry* |
| 02:14.41 | Angrybirds | "I was visited by the East African embassy yesterday morning, and it is on their behalf that I now stand before you." - Yeah... |

| 02:15.21 | Angrybirds | xD |

| 02:27.38 | OluapPlayer | hoh |
| 02:28.08 | AdmiralPanda | I have exactly one reason for not responding to the East African thing. Fordanta - If they're a problem, walk over there and kill them all. |

| 02:47.32 | AdmiralPanda | Angrybirds: That's fine because France made themselves look incompetent and out-of-touch to everyone else |
| 02:48.52 | DrodoEmpire | AdmiralPanda: This isn't my argument, but... How...? |
| 02:49.24 | DrodoEmpire | They made a appeal to the UN on the UDB; the only place in which anyone would actually notice it |

| 02:50.27 | DrodoEmpire | Then what is? |
| 02:50.43 | AdmiralPanda | The incompetent part is that they can't manage their own species, when everyone else on the intergalactic stage can to a much better extent |

| 02:51.07 | Hachi_ | Monet: Have you been to one of those creepy mansion places that Cora asks you to go to? |
| 02:51.13 | AdmiralPanda | they still exist as dozens of fragmented groups even in a fairly advanced state, whereas everyone else managed to unify first |
| 02:51.23 | DrodoEmpire | Its not really there fault that others to not wish to unify; At least they work together |
| 02:51.25 | Angrybirds | AdmiralPanda - The French could criticize the Draconis for being unable to manage their own galaxy. |
| 02:51.50 | Hachi_ | To be fair, neither can the humans |
| 02:51.53 | Monet | Hachi_: I started my journey...but got killed by a wizard. |

| 02:52.10 | Hachi_ | *run |
| 02:52.27 | Hachi_ | Also, don't worry about the wizard, he's invulnerable/nigh-invincible so just keep running |
| 02:52.37 | Angrybirds | Hachi_ Humans have only been spacefaring for... 831 years, you have to remember. |
| 02:52.51 | DrodoEmpire | And how is a species unified that still goes to war with other species on a regular basis, any better or superior to a civilization that has to declare war against its own? Even if they're the same tech level and size? |
| 02:52.56 | Angrybirds | The Draconis have been around for millennia. |
| 02:53.08 | Hachi_ | All the more reason for Draconis to see them as lowly |
| 02:53.08 | DrodoEmpire | You're still killing people for the same reasons either way. |
| 02:53.13 | DrodoEmpire | 7And its still a bad thing.7 |
| 02:53.25 | DrodoEmpire | *dunno why I put sevens on either side. XD |
| 02:53.43 | Hachi_ | Zazane personally would criticize humans for being humans and needing augmentations/cybernetics in order to produce effective soldiers |
| 02:53.51 | Hachi_ | Weak, pink things |
| 02:53.58 | OluapPlayer | like ur benis |
| 02:54.09 | Hachi_ | suk my dik |
| 02:54.18 | Monet | I think this all boils down to Torvos' point. |
| 02:54.45 | Monet | Humans have yet to settle things amongs their own species, how well are they goingto cope in a big alien colelctive? |
| 02:54.57 | Angrybirds | (Which I responded to, by the way) |
| 02:55.05 | Hachi_ | Wormy's said that the Kindred Coalition was more mature than the humans |
| 02:55.09 | Hachi_ | Because they're unified |
| 02:55.25 | Angrybirds | He thinks they're more mature. |
| 02:55.31 | Angrybirds | That's an opinion, not a fact. |
| 02:56.01 | Hachi_ | Zazane personally don't care for it; war is war no matter who you're fighting |
| 02:56.03 | Hachi_ | They're still going to sit back and laugh at you for being a human |
| 02:56.44 | Angrybirds | Now -that- makes sense. |
| 02:56.52 | DrodoEmpire | I'll repeat my point seeing as no one listens to me; Why is uniting your species such a distinction if you're still going to war regularly, and still taking slaves? The only thing that has changed is the setting and the scale; neither for the better. |
| 02:56.54 | Angrybirds | (totally not sarcastic) |
| 02:57.13 | Angrybirds | I agree with Drodo there. |
| 02:57.31 | DrodoEmpire | The best you can do as a civilization is not go to war often; but being prepared; who cares if your species isn't united? |
| 02:57.50 | DrodoEmpire | Its like complaining that different ethnic groups should nationalize. |
| 02:58.04 | OfficerJackal | Yeah, other then the fact that you have unified, you are still going to war and acting like fucking barbarians to the species you go to war against, killing thousands with your advanced weapons over your squabbles with one another. |
| 02:58.25 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
| 02:58.53 | Hachi_ | Nobody said the Draconis were right; they are meant to be stuck-up and pompous after all |
| 02:59.09 | DrodoEmpire | That's true. |
| 02:59.16 | Hachi_ | Zazane just plain think humans are silly |
| 03:00.09 | AdmiralPanda | DrodoEmpire: As was said above, it's not about the wars or anything like that, it's that they can't get ahold of themselves within their own species. Everyone else basically thinks they aren't ready to be a major player. |
| 03:00.09 | DrodoEmpire | But I'm just explaining why I think its wrong, and bit of a silly thing to think it'd be such a big step when you're really only going to up the scale of the wars you get into; And I think everyone can agree that is never a good thing |
| 03:00.35 | AdmiralPanda | And most of them are also just saying they really shouldn't be posting this sort of thing on a 'Universal' discussion board |
| 03:01.08 | Angrybirds | It's a public address which is accessible through the board. |
| 03:01.11 | Angrybirds | Directed at the UN. |
| 03:01.12 | Monet | If it was a plea to the United Nations, why not post it there? |
| 03:01.17 | DrodoEmpire | I suppose one could think that; But really that's only because of the trend of the gigaquadrant with species nationalizing; They think the human system if "wrong" because its different; Perhaps its more efficent |
| 03:01.20 | Angrybirds | Because nobody would see it. |
| 03:01.22 | Angrybirds | Like, nobody. |
| 03:01.23 | OluapPlayer | I worry about nothing by downright ignoring human canon in my fiction |
| 03:01.24 | DrodoEmpire | Because no one would notice, Money. |
| 03:01.25 | OfficerJackal | I do agree with that, there should be some sort of Earth Discussion Board or something like that, but nobody would ever look at the damn thing there. |
| 03:01.30 | OluapPlayer | Most human thing to touch my fiction is half-rabbit hur |
| 03:01.30 | OfficerJackal | ^ |
| 03:01.38 | DrodoEmpire | *Monet |
| 03:01.38 | OfficerJackal | What does that have to do with the argument. |
| 03:01.42 | Angrybirds | Monet : Look at the number of human fictions who have responded. |
| 03:01.46 | AdmiralPanda | So basically what you're all saying is that the UN doesn't have its own way of being contacted |
| 03:02.01 | DrodoEmpire | Admiral, no one would notice if posted anywhere else |
| 03:02.06 | Angrybirds | I'm saying that it's public, just like Bush's address to the UN is. |
| 03:02.14 | Angrybirds | You can look it up online. |
| 03:02.15 | AdmiralPanda | *sigh* you people are all COMPLETELY missing the point |
| 03:02.21 | DrodoEmpire | How? |
| 03:02.28 | DrodoEmpire | Explain your point clearer then. |
| 03:02.36 | Hachi_ | OluapPlayer: touched it wit his wiener |
| 03:02.45 | AdmiralPanda | what I'm getting at is that you've taken a message that really just needs to be between human factions, and put it up on an inter-species, inter-galaxy discussion board |
| 03:02.49 | OluapPlayer | It did in a way or another |
| 03:02.50 | AdmiralPanda | now forget the out of universe implications |
| 03:03.00 | DrodoEmpire | It was put there... |
| 03:03.07 | AdmiralPanda | you've just said that the only way to get in touch with the mediating body of the human race is to tell EVERYONE in the universe |
| 03:03.15 | DrodoEmpire | ...Solely because no one would notice otherwise. |
| 03:03.18 | DrodoEmpire | Understand? |
| 03:03.20 | OfficerJackal | Nobody would LOOK AT THE DAMN HUMAN BOARD ADMIRALPANDA, where do you want us to put it, up our asses? |
| 03:03.21 | Angrybirds | AdmiralPanda : The UDB is kind of like the internet. Do you think we could have kept a public speech from it if we wanted to? |
| 03:03.34 | Monet | This issue is why I created a discussion section on the AGC page. |
| 03:03.40 | AdmiralPanda | I give up, you people are refusing to see the point I'm trying to make |
| 03:03.45 | Angrybirds | Monet : And next to nobody sees it. |
| 03:03.55 | DrodoEmpire | We listened, considered it, |
| 03:04.05 | Angrybirds | (Yes, that's out-of-universe implications) |
| 03:04.06 | DrodoEmpire | and ultimately rejected it. |
| 03:04.08 | AdmiralPanda | and yet you're missing it entirely |
| 03:04.16 | AdmiralPanda | because I'm talking about purely in-context, not the wiki |
| 03:04.23 | DrodoEmpire | I heard your point and gave a response; Stop acting like an ass. |
| 03:04.42 | DrodoEmpire | I understand its a bit silly in-context, |
| 03:04.50 | DrodoEmpire | but its the only way it'll work. |
| 03:04.52 | DrodoEmpire | SO far |
| 03:04.54 | DrodoEmpire | *so |
| 03:04.57 | AdmiralPanda | thank you, there you go |
| 03:05.22 | Angrybirds | "I understand its a bit silly in-context" - And I agree with that as well. |
| 03:05.28 | OfficerJackal | Yep. |
| 03:06.23 | AdmiralPanda | That's all I was trying to get at, it got flared up and I apologise completely |
| 03:06.34 | DrodoEmpire | Its alright, |
| 03:06.45 | AdmiralPanda | we didn't understand each other's points, and we just tried to shout over each other. |
| 03:07.06 | AdmiralPanda | I understand that out of context, it's the only way to get the message out |
| 03:07.10 | OluapPlayer | I assume you're all not gonna go on each other's threats anymore so I'll be leaving |
| 03:07.34 | AdmiralPanda | it's just that in-context, the aliens that have responded have responded in quite an appropriate way given the in-context implications of humanity's actions |
| 03:07.40 | TekDroid | ...did we just make our point about humanity with this conversation? |
| 03:07.40 | DrodoEmpire | What did he mean by that I wonder? |
| 03:07.53 | AdmiralPanda | He was hanging around in case he had to ban people |
| 03:08.00 | DrodoEmpire | Oh. Fun. |
| 03:08.04 | OfficerJackal | He may have misspelled "Throats". |
| 03:08.51 | AdmiralPanda | TekDroid: Yes, I think we did |
| 03:09.55 | Monet | SOmetimes I wonder if what happens in the ficverse can be bizarringly realistic... |
| 03:10.09 | Hachi_ | See, this is why aliens never come to visit us |
| 03:10.10 | AdmiralPanda | as far as I'm aware, what happened is that aliens saw this UDB post, and it basically led them to consider humans rather immature compared to everyone else |
| 03:10.55 | Monet | And everyone on the IRC tried to reject their opinion by shouting at each other. |
| 03:11.27 | AdmiralPanda | that happens a fair bit unfortunately |
| 03:11.29 | Monet | I don't know about anyone else but I find this whole thing quite hilarious in hindsight. |
| 03:11.35 | AdmiralPanda | me too tbh :P |
| 03:12.12 | Monet | It is for this aspect why I agree with the bunny. |
| 03:12.29 | AdmiralPanda | absolutely |
| 03:16.11 | Angrybirds | But guys. |
| 03:16.12 | Angrybirds | Seriously. |
| 03:16.16 | Angrybirds | Respond with human nations. |
| 03:16.20 | Angrybirds | Not aliens. |
| 03:16.46 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
| 03:16.51 | Angrybirds | It's a real fiction going on between myself, Liquid, Pid, Patriot, Aquilo, and myself. |
| 03:16.59 | Angrybirds | A story we're writing. |
| 03:18.21 | AdmiralPanda | We're aware of that, it's just that most of us who have human fictions haven't actually done that much on the main page, let alone bothered to create UDB message tempates |
| 03:19.39 | Angrybirds | I figured. |
| 03:20.09 | Angrybirds | Also, I'd like to apologize for any bitterness this whole thing has created. That was not the intention. |
| 03:23.10 | AdmiralPanda | eh, a good part of the bitterness was mine |
| 03:24.10 | Angrybirds | Well, you had a good point, it just took us a while to understand it. |
| 03:26.26 | AdmiralPanda | yeah, it was just once people realised I was talking about in-context not out-of-context that it was resolved |
| 03:26.41 | AdmiralPanda | I'm not stupid, I know there's only so many ways to contact people out of universe |
| 03:26.53 | AdmiralPanda | I'm just not the best at making things clear when I say them :P |
| 03:28.29 | Angrybirds | Lol, next time I'll put a disclaimer and a long explanation as to what the situation actually entails. |
| 03:29.44 | AdmiralPanda | thing is, the aliens that responded did so quite well given what they would reasonably know about the situation |
| 03:30.31 | Angrybirds | I agree, though their ignorance is understandable, it's cringe-worthy to those who actually know what's going on. |
| 03:31.40 | AdmiralPanda | not really, imo |
| 03:31.54 | Angrybirds | It makes them look like overzealous, self-indulged hypocrites who don't understand that they know nothing about what they're criticizing. |
| 03:32.35 | Hachi_ | Zazane - Haha, humans are fighting. |
| 03:32.38 | AdmiralPanda | I don't feel that way at all. Their responses are quite reasonable given the information available to htem |
| 03:32.57 | AdmiralPanda | it's only by standing back and nitpicking that they would appear that way, imo |
| 03:33.07 | AdmiralPanda | Hachi_: Fordanta - Just go kill them all then |
| 03:33.50 | Angrybirds | For the wider gigaquadrant, maybe. But for the humans who know exactly what's going on, it's like listening to your parents drone on and on about a situation they only know the tip of the iceberg about. |
| 03:34.12 | Angrybirds | Their criticisms simply don't apply to the situation, and they don't know that. |
| 03:34.27 | Hachi_ | Thing is, most aliens probably already know what's going on and have had far worse based on previous experiences |
| 03:35.02 | AdmiralPanda | Angrybirds: well yeah, but you can't blame them |
| 03:36.56 | Angrybirds | AdmiralPanda : If I was in their shoes, I'd realize that all I know about the situation comes from a speech that's trying to prove a point and get something done. In short, I know nothing. |
| 03:38.00 | AdmiralPanda | Angrybirds: If I was in their shoes, I'd say "Go sort this out among your own people, instead of posting it for the rest of the universe to see." |
| 03:38.09 | Hachi_ | hur |
| 03:38.26 | AdmiralPanda | which is basically what a lot of people have said |
| 03:38.49 | Angrybirds | Notice the title. |
| 03:38.54 | Angrybirds | Notice the title of the post. |
| 03:39.03 | Angrybirds | It's clear to whom it was directed. |
| 03:39.05 | Angrybirds | In the title. |
| 03:39.12 | AdmiralPanda | dude |
| 03:39.14 | AdmiralPanda | chill |
| 03:39.15 | Hachi_ | But the UDB is like the internet |
| 03:39.17 | AdmiralPanda | go swim in the arctic |
| 03:39.29 | Hachi_ | People, specifically aliens, are gonna troll nonetheless |
| 03:39.34 | AdmiralPanda | we're fully aware of who it's directed to |
| 03:39.35 | Angrybirds | "But the UDB is like the internet" - Exactly. |
| 03:39.53 | AdmiralPanda | but the thing is, you put a private message on a public board, you're gonna get public responses |
| 03:40.09 | AdmiralPanda | that's why alien trolls be trolling |
| 03:40.44 | Angrybirds | Yes, but it's bad when those trolls are high-ranking government officials who probably should know better. |
| 03:40.56 | Hachi_ | Nah, it's funny |
| 03:41.54 | Angrybirds | And a little sad, tbh. |
| 03:42.16 | Hachi_ | It's like me posting a thread that says "I Have A Wart On My Ass, Help Only Please" and expecting just help and not people who are going to take the piss |
| 03:42.20 | Angrybirds | Makes them look incompetent and like they should be in their mother's basements, not in charge of anything. |
| 03:43.04 | Hachi_ | I think if a high-ranking alien is saying "sort your species out plz" then he has enough right to say it to a young, inexperienced species posting their problems on a public board |
| 03:43.22 | Hachi_ | Especially if he comes from a millennia old empire like the Imperium |
| 03:43.36 | Angrybirds | Yes, but much more than that is being said. |
| 03:44.25 | Angrybirds | And that's like telling the US and Japan should sort out their own problems because FDR's "A day which will live in Infamy" speech found its way on to the internet. |
| 03:45.42 | Angrybirds | Or that the US and the Middle East should sort out their own problems after Bush's address to the UN after 9/11 hit the internet. |
| 03:45.46 | Hachi_ | But people do tell them to sort out their own problems |
| 03:46.02 | Angrybirds | Yes, but not BECAUSE of the fact that the thing is up on the internet. |
| 03:46.11 | Angrybirds | Just because they have problems. |
| 03:46.55 | Hachi_ | Well how else are we gonna complain and know about the problems they're facing if they're not on the internet |
| 03:47.26 | Hachi_ | And even then, whether it's on the internet or not, if we have knowledge of their problems we're still gonna say "they should sort it out" |
| 03:48.11 | Angrybirds | Yes, and that would make sense. But you said, "then he has enough right to say it to a young, inexperienced species posting their problems on a public board" |
| 03:48.27 | Angrybirds | They're not broadcasting their problems, their problems are being broadcasted. |
| 03:48.53 | Angrybirds | I understand by that statement that you're criticizing them for broadcasting their problems. |
| 03:49.23 | Hachi_ | It's like a child complaining about a bully or something on the internet, a lot of adults are gonna give the same response |
| 03:50.20 | Angrybirds | Except it's not the child complaining here, it's the child's complaint being taped and posted on the internet somewhat out of context. |
| 03:50.31 | Angrybirds | by a third party. |
| 03:50.37 | Angrybirds | Probably the UN in this case. |
| 03:50.50 | Angrybirds | Most UN speeches are recorded and posted by the UN. |
| 03:53.47 | AdmiralPanda | I'm bored of this conversation. Let's talk about Hachiman's near complete lack of a sex life |
| 03:54.07 | OfficerJackal | :| |
| 03:54.16 | Hachi_ | Cept for the fact he banged an alternate universe version of Iovera |
| 03:54.32 | AdmiralPanda | not bad |
| 03:55.05 | AdmiralPanda | also, I created his only current long-term sexual partner so I'm aware he has a little bit of game |
| 05:07.59 | Angrybirds | Hachi_ Wait, so how did the YSE end up in the Astral Alliance? |

| 06:09.39 | Tybusen | The Greeks invented the term Lesbian after all |
| 06:09.59 | Imperios | You may be interested in the TV series of the book |
| 06:10.23 | Imperios | It has at least one female character who frequently appears nakrd |

| 09:14.01 | AdmiralPanda | wut |
| 09:14.04 | AdmiralPanda | oh right, Japan |
| 09:15.45 | Hachi_ | There's also a bogeyman variant in Malaysia, which is basically this woman who goes around searching for young, healthy men and suffocating them to death with a face full of Gwynevere-sized boob |

| 09:37.56 | Imperios | There is such a creature in Russian folklore |
| 09:39.41 | Hachi_ | Ah but are her tits on her back |
| 09:39.52 | Imperios | Basically that's our equivalent of the mermaid even though Russia has long since adopted the Western variant of the creature |
| 09:40.23 | Imperios | Called "rusalka"; may also be used to refer to Western mermaiden |
| 09:41.35 | Imperios | Or mavka but that's more Ukrainiam |
| 09:41.39 | Imperios | Ukrainian |
| 09:41.41 | Tybusen | I find it funny how the name of that creature sounds similar to the country it came from |
| 09:41.55 | Imperios | Hur |
| 09:42.06 | Imperios | Well technically it's pronounced different |
| 09:42.34 | Imperios | Russia is Rah-sha in English and Roh-see-ya in Russian |
| 09:42.43 | Imperios | Rusalka is Roo-sal-ka |
| 09:43.08 | Tybusen | I'm half-asleep right now so I can't even language |
| 09:43.30 | Imperios | Sure, once can call Russia "Rus" and that would be pronounced "Roos" BUT that'd be like calling UK "Albion" |

| 09:46.49 | Tybusen | I've always pronounced it as "Rush-ah" |
| 09:47.20 | Hachi_ | Well, I find "-uh" and "-ah" interchangeable hur |
| 09:47.24 | Imperios | Once can in fact pronounce Russia as "Rush-uh" in Russian but only in the derogatory sense |
| 09:47.26 | Tybusen | Or if I feel like playing around with stresses, "Roo-shah" |

| 09:48.52 | Hachi_ | Pandamonium |
| 09:48.59 | AdmiralPanda | ^.^ |
| 09:49.00 | Tybusen | AdmiralPanda is Mother Russia |
| 09:49.07 | AdmiralPanda | Secretly I own all of the vodka |
| 09:49.11 | AdmiralPanda | therefore I own all of the russia |
| 09:49.43 | Imperios | And that's how the Protocols of the Elders of Panda were born |
| 09:50.15 | Imperios | ...Did anyone get the joke? |
| 09:50.26 | Hachi_ | Is it a WoW joke? |
| 09:50.31 | AdmiralPanda | nah, that was the result of a gypsy and a space gnome getting really drunk and friendly one night |
| 09:50.52 | Imperios | Nah that's a conspiracy theory joke |
| 09:51.02 | Imperios | http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Protocols_of_the_Elders_of_Zion |
| 09:51.27 | Imperios | ...Why do I know so much about all these antisemite texts |
| 09:51.39 | Hachi_ | Hmm I wonder who's more impressive really |
| 09:51.41 | Hachi_ | Ken from Fist of the Northstar who can destroy mountains, defeat armies, blow people up with his legs and fists, and fight and defeat other mountain-destroying men, or Guts from Berserk who can launch cannonballs from his artificial arm, defeat 100 men single-handedly, kill demons without help, and other stuff Panda probably knows about |
| 09:52.08 | Imperios | Guts is already dead |
| 09:52.12 | Hachi_ | hur |
| 09:52.12 | Tybusen | Ken because Fist of the North Star is the only one of those two shows that I've heard of before |
| 09:52.30 | Imperios | I heard of both |
| 09:52.34 | Tybusen | And punching people to death sounds more badass than shooting them |
| 09:52.45 | Hachi_ | I dunno; Guts has a cannon FOR AN ARM |
| 09:52.58 | Tybusen | dat so mainstream tho |
| 09:52.59 | Hachi_ | Which is fully functional. As an arm. |
| 09:53.18 | AdmiralPanda | Hachi_: You know what would actually terrify me? |
| 09:53.22 | AdmiralPanda | Guts using a normal sword |
| 09:53.31 | Hachi_ | How so? |
| 09:53.39 | Tybusen | So I'm turning in a science lab report 2 hours overdue |
| 09:53.42 | AdmiralPanda | he's strong enough to swing a sword so heavy most people can't lift it. imagine how quickly he'd be able to move a regular blade |
| 09:53.54 | Tybusen | You can really tell where I missed the turn-in time and stopped trying |
| 09:54.00 | AdmiralPanda | you wouldn't be able to break his guard full stop |
| 09:54.13 | Hachi_ | Last time he used a normal sword didn't Casca get raped? |
| 09:54.27 | AdmiralPanda | that was fighting demons |
| 09:54.42 | drom | uh |
| 09:56.07 | AdmiralPanda | he had to upgrade his epicly large sword to fight htem |
| 09:56.15 | Hachi_ | rite |
| 09:56.21 | AdmiralPanda | and get armour that's slowly killing him |
| 09:56.33 | Hachi_ | Strength increase, right? |
| 09:56.48 | AdmiralPanda | also anime doesn't normally follow the conventions of real life swordfighting |
| 09:57.18 | AdmiralPanda | IRL there's no way Griffith could hope to guard a swing from a sword that heavy with just a rapier |
| 09:57.27 | Hachi_ | Aye |
| 09:57.39 | AdmiralPanda | furthermore Guts wouldn't be cutting into anyone, he'd be bludgeoning them |
| 09:57.51 | Hachi_ | That actually sounds horrifying |
| 09:57.54 | AdmiralPanda | a really heavy blunt sword is basically a big metal stick |
| 09:58.26 | AdmiralPanda | what's actually horrifying is, anime taken into account, that's a pretty realistic amount of blood for bludgeoning someone like that |
| 09:58.38 | drom | Giant slab of metal on a wooden stick. |
| 09:58.38 | AdmiralPanda | you're gonna dent their armour and squash their organs |
| 09:59.16 | AdmiralPanda | even if they survive they're gonna need metal shears to get the armour off |
| 09:59.42 | Hachi_ | That's absolutely terriftying |
| 09:59.47 | Hachi_ | *terrifying |
| 10:01.24 | AdmiralPanda | also, a pickaxe is a horrifically effective weapon |
| 10:01.38 | AdmiralPanda | if there's one guy with a sword and another with the pick, I'll take the swordsman any day |
| 10:02.22 | AdmiralPanda | anyway time to go hit up that forest PvP in dark souls |
| 10:02.26 | Tybusen | I'mma go to bed |
| 10:02.28 | Tybusen | Night all |
| 10:02.36 | AdmiralPanda | anyone want a running update of my fights? |
| 10:29.39 | AdmiralPanda | damn, nobody so far |
| 10:29.53 | AdmiralPanda | I've been here for about fifteen minutes |

| 11:27.25 | drom | sun is the safest place in space |
| 11:27.37 | AdmiralPanda | you have the tank (Poda), the speed fighter (Hachi) and the mage (Clotho) |

| 11:29.33 | Imperios | That is, Javi, Lekren and Latae |
| 11:29.35 | Imperios | Latar |
| 11:29.56 | AdmiralPanda | Oluap: Then you factor in the incredible sexual tension between Hachi and Clotho, while Poda pretends to be oblivious |
| 11:30.05 | Imperios | AdmiralPanda: I expected more sex hur |
| 11:30.25 | OluapWorker | So did I but it was so cute I didn't mind in the end :v |
| 11:30.56 | AdmiralPanda | well I was a bit concerned that outwardly saying they were having sex would be a bit iffy to upload |

| 16:02.37 | Wormy | Hi |
| 16:02.53 | The_Randomness | wb |
| 16:05.44 | Monet | Considering the outcome of that UN plea, I'm starting to wonder if the alien powers that voiced their distaste had any justification to do so... |
| 16:06.39 | Wormy | The DCP's comments were particularly ironic. |
| 16:06.59 | Monet | Or perhaps it is a good example of the "survival of the fittest" nature of international politics. |
| 16:07.36 | Cyrannian | It's like the aliens are YouTube trolls arguing about politics |
| 16:07.58 | drom | Hah |
| 16:08.16 | drom | democracy stronk |
| 16:09.29 | Monet | Politics isn't a game for nice people |
| 16:09.32 | The_Randomness | Considering what has been done to Earth politics recently, I consider the concept of a "United Nations" ironic. |
| 16:10.24 | The_Randomness | In-universe, that is |
| 16:10.37 | drom | I might write another fiction creature that is almost identical to Star Trek's tholians. But 20% more organic and more arms. |
| 16:11.12 | Wormy | DrodoEmpire's comment I can agree with. The current empires of the Gigaquadrant are probably frightened by the human's option living in choice of what nation to be under. |
| 16:12.22 | Monet | That sort-of happens in the DI, funnily enough. |
| 16:13.00 | Cyrannian | It raises very good points, but I would have thought that most modern species have the choice of what civilisation they inhabit. |
| 16:13.32 | Cyrannian | For example, Rambo Nation contains millions of Libertus that migrated in the past of their own free will, even gaining a senator that is quite anti-Imperial. |
| 16:15.27 | Monet | DI provinces themselves vary in governance from monarchies to true republics, collective intelligences, hive intelligences and democratic governments. The Grand Senate gives them free reign to rule their domains so long as theyir leaders answer to the Grand Senate. |
| 16:15.46 | Cyrannian | I would reckon that the aliens find the fact that humans are so divided unusual given the fact that their civilisations unify not only one species, but potentially hundreds. |
| 16:15.56 | Angrybirds_Sleep | Posted a reply on behalf of René. I liked Caesarius' points, Cyrannian. They were interesting to counter. |
| 16:16.08 | Cyrannian | I'll take a look now |
| 16:18.01 | Wormy | It is healthy for modern cultures/societies to be open to others. |
| 16:18.03 | Monet | Parag'avatus doesn't mean "master of kings" just to give the Imperium's head of state an ego trip. |

| 16:20.59 | OfficerJackal | Hello! |
| 16:21.03 | Monet | One of the big reasons is the Imperium is all about taking advantage of cultural strengths, some cultural aspects don't work under certain types of governance. |
| 16:21.05 | Monet | Hi |
| 16:21.21 | The_Randomness | Hello |
| 16:22.21 | The_Randomness | Considering the SR's opinion on violence and discord, I think their response would basically be an insult, if they would make a public response to France. |
| 16:22.58 | Cyrannian | Angrybirds_Sleep: That was very impressive, it'll be difficult to construct a response |
| 16:23.15 | Angrybirds_Sleep | You'll figure it out. :) |
| 16:25.22 | Monet | Maxios Telvenum is probably the only example of this social policy that I have, oh and Kervon Daktis. |
| 16:26.21 | Monet | They rule their provinces how they prefer, but for any matters outside their provinces they'd need to bring it up with the Grand Senate. |
| 16:27.47 | Monet | For example, it might still be legal in the Zazane province to kill someone in the streat so long as you have a justifiable reason for doing it - asi is law in the Brood of War. |
| 16:31.41 | Monet | The Imperium might be more of a hegemony than a colonial empire in this regard... |

| 16:47.39 | OluapWorker | ew |
| 16:48.03 | Monet | Yeah maybe, but what I mean is, what if one of the reasons its existed for so long is because the Draconis have constructed it so that it cannot die with ALcanti? |
| 16:48.12 | Cyrannian | The candy is made of vomit. |
| 16:49.40 | The_Randomness | Then they have constructed it well. |
| 16:50.44 | Monet | Medusa thought she could occupy the Imperium by occupying Alcanti. She sent the largest fleet she could to level Araveene into a thick layer of slag. |
| 16:50.57 | drom | Hah, oluap I see you liek reddit |
| 16:51.47 | Monet | Even if she did, what encouragement does she have for the viceroies of Bunsen, Borealis and the Milky Way to bow to her? |
| 16:52.59 | The_Randomness | Very little, if any. |
| 16:53.16 | OluapWorker | I don't browse reddit |
| 16:53.28 | drom | I saw that bunny in reddit this morning |
| 16:53.33 | Monet | By devastating Alcanti, all Medusa ends up doing is removing one monarch only for three or more to rise and challenge her. |
| 16:53.45 | drom | Aka about 10 hours ago. |

| 16:55.52 | The_Randomness | Just curious |
| 16:56.16 | Monet | I'm just hypothesising. |
| 16:56.25 | drom | And somebody made a proper Doom+TF2 crossover. http://i.imgur.com/Y8YDUWi.jpg |
| 16:56.28 | Monet | But Medusa did launch a fleet at Araveene during Attero Dominatus. |
| 16:56.37 | The_Randomness | Ah |
| 16:56.40 | OluapWorker | Wouldn't losing your homeworld be a pretty big emotional victory? |
| 16:56.45 | OluapWorker | It's not just about the loss of the planet |
| 16:57.07 | OluapWorker | If she took over Alcanti, who says she can't take over any other planet? |
| 16:58.12 | Monet | She probably could, but the more locations she conquers the more resources she needs to divert in order to kep thlose places firmly under her control. |
| 16:58.54 | Monet | And she has to replenish the losses she incurred during the siege. |
| 16:59.45 | drom | I wonder which nickname would fit the Aemonkians at best. |
| 16:59.57 | The_Randomness | I must be going, bye guys |
| 17:00.15 | drom | They can be also called as Aaillians. As their homeplanet is named Aailli. |

| 17:20.53 | Imperios | She will probably be SOMEWHAT xenophobic, but it won't be her main trait given that she will be more interested in unifying humanity |
| 17:21.33 | Imperios | Perhaps Jessamine will believe that humanity can only be unified by a common enemy? |
| 17:22.46 | Cyrannian | She could be a friend to Collins and act as a foil to his more idealistic beliefs. |
| 17:27.42 | Imperios | You're reading my thoughts, Cyr |

| 18:01.05 | Monet | Who hasn't tried doing that? |
| 18:01.23 | dromlexer | Monet, if it's Guild Wars 2, checking the site showed that you have to own the game. |
| 18:01.26 | Xho | Q1 of 2014 would have been convincing though |
| 18:01.29 | Monet | drom: I don't by the term "buy to play" |
| 18:01.29 | Xho | If it were posted in 2010 |
| 18:02.02 | Monet | IMO "buy to play" is a term used by whiners who expect free to paly games to be handed to the mon a silver platter. |
| 18:03.45 | dromlexer | I don't get it. |
| 18:05.47 | Monet | PLanetside 2 is proper free to play - you don't have to buy the game and there's no subscription. |
| 18:07.02 | Monet | And then you have people who complain about cash shops... |
| 18:07.11 | Cyrannian | <PROTECTED> |

| 18:34.28 | Wormy | Ghelae: My friends think it is a alien spaceship that cloaked itself http://www.universetoday.com/109522/moby-dick-asteroid-2000-em26-on-the-lamb-help-slooh-find-it/ |
| 18:34.47 | Ghelae | Well that's just the obvious explanation. |
| 18:35.43 | Ghelae | It could just as well have been an alien spacecraft that... flew away. |
| 18:36.34 | Imperios | Hm |
| 18:36.36 | Imperios | Guys |
| 18:36.50 | Imperios | Gimme a random British city, preferrably the one where people speak with posh accents |
| 18:36.59 | Imperios | For SciFiJavi's home |
| 18:37.07 | Xho | Imperios: No such place in Britain |
| 18:37.24 | Wormy | She might have come from a grammar school. |
| 18:37.24 | Imperios | I like British accents in general |
| 18:37.29 | Imperios | Is it weird that I find them sexy? |
| 18:37.47 | OluapPlayer | Yes |
| 18:37.50 | Imperios | I remember overhearing a British family talk while on vacation |
| 18:38.01 | Imperios | There was a girl there, roughly my age or a bit older |
| 18:38.06 | Imperios | She was speaking with a British accent |
| 18:38.13 | Imperios | I was genuinely turned on hur |
| 18:38.25 | OluapPlayer | You were turned on by the girl then, not the accent |
| 18:38.35 | Wormy | Don't forget, Earth has been abandoned for three centuries, but she might be a) old, b) from a British colony in the Fjord League c) very very young |
| 18:38.36 | OluapPlayer | I find british accents comical, not sexy hur |
| 18:38.54 | Xho | Wormy: I don't think the whole Earth abandonment thing is canon any more |
| 18:39.20 | Wormy | Then that is my Rights of Earth and Jovar's fiction messed up. |
| 18:39.38 | Wormy | Anyway, Angrybirds is going to help spread the word |
| 18:40.12 | Wormy | I could set Rights of Earth back a bit though, in fact it has to be. |
| 18:40.28 | Wormy | It occured during the New Grox Wars |
| 18:40.42 | Ghelae | Earth was never *completely* abandoned in the first place, but settlements were few and far between compared to how they are currently. |
| 18:40.51 | Imperios | ...Southampton |
| 18:40.52 | Imperios | Dunno |
| 18:40.56 | Imperios | Where could she come from |
| 18:40.57 | OluapPlayer | Gosh dangit where's Jo and Hachi |
| 18:41.01 | Xho | Imperios: DON'T MAKE ME RAUGH |
| 18:41.09 | Wormy | Japan had a secret base, the Ottomans lived underground, lets just keep it at that |
| 18:41.10 | OluapPlayer | needs more Fog War |

| 18:42.12 | Imperios | What about Leicester? |
| 18:42.20 | Ghelae | Leicester? Posh? |
| 18:42.25 | Wormy | They don't have a posh accent in Leicester |
| 18:42.39 | Imperios | Well screw it |
| 18:42.47 | Wormy | I think you are looking for South East accent |
| 18:42.47 | Imperios | She might have taught herself to speak with a posh accent |
| 18:42.54 | Ghelae | Go for somewhere like Cambridge. Posh students there. |
| 18:42.58 | Wormy | ^ |
| 18:42.59 | Xho | That's usually how it happens |

| 18:43.17 | Xho | Imperios: Damn you need to learn your British |
| 18:43.30 | Imperios | I dunno really |
| 18:43.36 | Imperios | I am not exactly well versed in British accents |
| 18:43.44 | Imperios | American, sure |
| 18:43.47 | Imperios | British, not exatly |
| 18:43.58 | Imperios | I don't get how you Brits get so many accents |
| 18:44.03 | OluapPlayer | too much human talk lately |
| 18:44.08 | Ghelae | Have her come from somewhere that isn't a city. |
| 18:44.09 | OluapPlayer | I need something to occupy myself with |
| 18:44.18 | Wormy | Imperios: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Estuary_English |
| 18:44.36 | Xho | OluapPlayer: Tomoko |
| 18:44.55 | Wormy | It is because the British Isles had constant movements of people from Europe and beyond |
| 18:44.55 | OluapPlayer | Don't got any Tomoko stuff right now |
| 18:45.09 | Imperios | Back when I was playing Dota, my team was composed of two Kazakhstani Russians, me, a Petersburgian of Asian descent, a Russian, and an Ukrainian from Sevastopol |
| 18:45.17 | Imperios | Our Russian was almost exactly the same |
| 18:45.26 | Ghelae | Particularly in the East Midlands, I'd say you're more likely to find "posh" accents in the surrounding villages than in the city centres. |
| 18:45.28 | Wormy | North of Derbyshire and in Yorkshire, Viking words are still spoken |
| 18:45.48 | Wormy | Like "addle" |
| 18:45.49 | Cyrannian | AngryBirds and I are currently discussing ideas about the UN-like organisation for humanity in the hopes of bridging the gaps between those who want a unified humanity and those who don't. These suggestions range from a replica of the UN from real-life or something more unifying. Hopefully we can reach a consensus we can all accept. |
| 18:46.40 | Ghelae | Are you inviting us to discuss it too? |
| 18:46.53 | Cyrannian | Indeed. |
| 18:46.55 | Angrybirds_droid | ^ I'm willing to compromise between the two, though I'd want to keep the basic UN structure. |
| 18:48.47 | Imperios | Yes |
| 18:48.48 | Ghelae | So what are the specific featuresof this organisaion that are in need of discussion? |
| 18:48.52 | Cyrannian | And my personal opinion is that we should create something that reflects eight hundred years of political change, reflecting the Rights of Earth and the technological advancements that humanity faces. For example, instead of a Council and a single Secretary General, this organisation could be a fully e-democracy, |
| 18:48.52 | Imperios | I'd like to but I'll go to sleep now |
| 18:49.04 | Cyrannian | *full |
| 18:49.05 | Imperios | ^ That is an excellent idea |
| 18:49.40 | Wormy | Imperios: Give her a Norfolk accent just for lols http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UTVwdv9Pzo8 |
| 18:49.45 | Cyrannian | For example, instead of having individual leaders representing members, a consensus is reached based on the wishes of the majority of the citizens via the internet's futuristic successor. |
| 18:50.13 | Ghelae | So super-speedy referenda? |
| 18:50.33 | Angrybirds_droid | That would be a government of people, not a government of governments. |
| 18:50.51 | Angrybirds_droid | I want to keep the UN a government of governments. |
| 18:51.16 | Wormy | Things are a bit backward in the Fens |
| 18:52.27 | Ghelae | I would imagine there to be individual autonomous states, where citizens vote on what the society and law within is like (and leaving if they dislike the consensus), with the overarching organisation dealing with international (e.g. extraterrestrial, as opposed to intra-UN) affairs such as politics and, most likely, interstellar warfare. |
| 18:53.11 | Angrybirds_droid | ^ |
| 18:53.43 | Cyrannian | Yes, my proposal would mean that people's fictions would retain individual autonomy and sovereignty, with the addition of an all-inclusive legislature that would be quite unique on the wiki, I believe. Plus, it could tie into the coming of the singularity, with AIs moderating this legislature. |
| 18:54.10 | Ghelae | This basically what the AI-managed part of the Civilisation is like, only that's on a gigantic scale, and there it's mainly AIs who deal with foreign policy while citizens just control their habitats/dyson swarms. |

| 18:54.39 | Angrybirds_droid | The SecGen (which I want to keep) would have basic executive powers, the foreign policy director of the UN, capable of negotiating treaties, etc. |
| 18:54.44 | Xho | Cyrannian: So like the UN basically |
| 18:54.52 | Ghelae | Hello. |
| 18:55.03 | Angrybirds_droid | Personally, I want to keep the councils. It's a messy system I love working with. |
| 18:55.33 | Cyrannian | Xho: Sort of. The UN without a council of leaders or a secretary general from a single nation. Instead, it would have no real leader (I'm sure it would have diplomats and ambassadors), but the main force behind the organisation would be the people |
| 18:55.49 | Angrybirds_droid | And many people who aren't here have told me they feel the same way. |
| 18:57.34 | Ghelae | The main distinction between the Civilisation, and states that are members of the Civilisation but not directly under AI control, is likely to be that the latter don't want superior intelligences being given control over them and their policies. |
| 18:58.10 | Ghelae | So they may have autonomous AI-like systems being used in politics for whatever reasons, but these would be kept under the direct control of biologicals, e.g. councils of politicians. |
| 19:00.15 | Angrybirds_droid | The councils we have right now are easier to manage and more interesting, though. |
| 19:01.41 | Ghelae | Yes; ultimately, decisions would rest with them. Even in the future, I don't think politicians will place enough faith in the general public to manage foreign policy purely by internet referendum. :P |
| 19:02.01 | Angrybirds_droid | ^ |
| 19:02.47 | Angrybirds_droid | Just look at internet naming polls and see how truly terrible descicions governments could make if they ran on that. |
| 19:05.35 | Cyrannian | That gives me an idea. What if, along with the electronic democracy the closest thing to an executive decision making body are the opinions of a person (not necessarily a politician) put forward by a member state. Essentially they would have no real power, rather their influence carries weight and public opinion sways based on it. |
| 19:06.51 | Ghelae | That sounds like there would be some resemblance to politicians, in that features such as charisma and persuasion skills would |
| 19:06.59 | Ghelae | be very useful in that position. |
| 19:07.17 | Cyrannian | That way, no single nation would have authority over an other while simultaneously, political intrigue between these people (who could try and manipulate people into getting votes would still exist). |
| 19:07.23 | Ghelae | So it could be a future evolution of the modern concept of the politician. |
| 19:09.33 | Monet | Could work. |
| 19:09.39 | Cyrannian | Indeed, these individuals don't necessarily have to be government officials, but rather individuals deemed to have the public's best wishes at heart. (regardless if this is true or not) |
| 19:09.49 | Monet | One big issue these days is politicians are often out of touch with the public. |
| 19:11.09 | Cyrannian | And when you consider what a massive effect the internet has on politics today, imagine what things would be like in the 2800s. |
| 19:11.45 | Xho | Psi - beer |
| 19:12.43 | Cyrannian | Angrybirds_droid: What do you think? |
| 19:13.22 | Angrybirds_droid | I think that any attempt to reform the UN would fall into chaos and vetoes. |
| 19:13.31 | Ghelae | Just to get the lowest levels of this organisation out of the way, are we agreed on this: there are polities which are autonomous, and in the case of democracies these are essentially governed by electronic referenda;.but a higher organisation deals with international affairs such as human-ET relations and interstellar war (and perhaps sometimes stepping in to prevent things like human rights abuses in the polities)? |
| 19:13.33 | Xho | Might have just remembered the most British phrase ever |
| 19:13.37 | Xho | "Gordon Bennett!" |
| 19:13.57 | Angrybirds_droid | So the system would have to be a careful evolution of the old system. |
| 19:14.09 | Cyrannian | Ghelae: I agree with that. |
| 19:14.32 | Cyrannian | I'd imagine that 800 years is more than enough time for the UN to develop into this. |
| 19:15.21 | Cyrannian | Consider the changes in politics since the 1200s. |
| 19:15.26 | Xho | 1200's |
| 19:15.32 | Xho | Politics = Old Testament |
| 19:16.08 | Angrybirds_droid | True, though old systems replaced new ones. This one would endure and resist change by nature. |
| 19:16.42 | Xho | Size 11 shoes can be really detrimental sometimes |
| 19:16.44 | Ghelae | Then shall we consider what things keep it going and how these might change? |
| 19:17.35 | Angrybirds_droid | Sure |
| 19:18.26 | Cyrannian | You should also consider all the conflicts that happened in fiction since the 21st Centuries, dozens of wars, at least one world war, intercolonial wars, the Thal Invasion, (did the Xhodocto invade at some stage during the Imperial Civil War, I'm not sure if that element is still canon anymore), etc |
| 19:18.34 | Cyrannian | All of this would surely have a profound impact. |

| 19:19.24 | Hachi_ | Hai |
| 19:19.28 | Cyrannian | The old UN system could have been abandoned in a similar way to the League of Nations by the time of WWIII |
| 19:19.29 | Ghelae | The Xhodocto didn't do that thing on Earth any more, but the Kindred Coalition brought a huge cluster of "alien" near-human societies into the mix. |
| 19:19.32 | Ghelae | Hello. |
| 19:19.34 | *** join/#sporewiki Angrybirds (99128801@gateway/web/freenode/ip.153.18.136.1) |
| 19:19.49 | Cyrannian | Hello there |
| 19:19.55 | Hachi_ | ngh why is Imperios always gone |
| 19:21.06 | Monet | He was on earlier |
| 19:21.13 | OluapPlayer | stupid buni |
| 19:21.17 | OluapPlayer | y u gone all day |
| 19:21.19 | Angrybirds | True, but I think the UN would have been repurposed to enforce the treaty that put an end to the colonial wars and as a result be seen as essential. It would be strengthened and altered in slight ways, but not overhauled. |
| 19:21.32 | Wormy | I enjoyed linking the fanfic fiction, Jovar's fiction and the new human fiction together |
| 19:21.40 | Hachi_ | https://fbcdn-sphotos-e-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-prn2/t1/1618667_295193293965208_1473486848_n.png |
| 19:21.59 | Angrybirds | Because an overhaul would need consensus, and try getting the Yamato, Euraspact, France, the ESR, and the Ottomans to agree on anything. |
| 19:22.18 | Wormy | I'd like to see some interact between the Kindred Coalition and humans in Andromeda and Cyrannus |
| 19:22.21 | OluapPlayer | Hachi_ Wormy: can you two rp right now? |
| 19:22.33 | Cyrannian | I think we are discussing a gradual, natural and flowing change over a period of eight centuries. |
| 19:22.36 | Wormy | Not really, I'm doing my work. Maybe in 2 hours |
| 19:22.44 | Hachi_ | I'm having dinner soon |
| 19:22.45 | OluapPlayer | Not today then |
| 19:22.51 | OluapPlayer | Should've guessed |
| 19:23.00 | dromlexer | Valve is going to release a movie about F2P games and Dota2. |
| 19:23.00 | dromlexer | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R-RKqGaNq-Y |
| 19:23.03 | Angrybirds | Cyrannian : Yes, a natural change towards a stronger UN. |
| 19:23.46 | Cyrannian | It is hardly realisitic to say that the UN would continue with only slight changes through many continent shattering, often atomic wars, over a period of eight centuries and remain more-or-less identical to the modern incarnation. |
| 19:23.53 | Cyrannian | *realistic |
| 19:23.58 | Wormy | I agree |
| 19:24.19 | Angrybirds | As do I. The framework would be the same, but it would have DRASTICALLY different applications. |
| 19:24.39 | Ghelae | What we need to consider is specifics: what exactly needs to change to get to Cyr's vision, and what exact things would prevent that change? |
| 19:24.57 | Ghelae | At the moment, I feel like I could contribute to this discussion with nothing more than poetic metaphors. |
| 19:25.03 | Wormy | I shall have to talk to Oluap about a good time to roleplay with me. I hope this has not upset him |
| 19:25.05 | Ghelae | "Even solid pitch flows given enough time." |
| 19:25.47 | dromlexer | Can I put this {{Featured article}} to every article that was once featured according to the list? |
| 19:25.49 | Angrybirds | Ghelae : The thing is that the people I spoke to and represent in this discussion would much rather stay with the current UN structure. |
| 19:25.57 | Wormy | I could yabber on about optimism and open-ended progress |
| 19:26.30 | Cyrannian | Those people are able to speak their minds for themselves, I'm sure. |
| 19:26.41 | Angrybirds | Except they're not here. |
| 19:27.08 | Cyrannian | Indeed, we are just discussing things here. Nothing will be changed until a blog is made so that whoever wants to contribute can. |
| 19:27.12 | Wormy | But even Popperian falsification will be a challenge to apply to politics, since I'm not very versed in politics |
| 19:27.53 | Cyrannian | Ghelae: Since you seem to be neutral, could you make a blog in return for five magic beans? |
| 19:27.57 | Ghelae | So Cyr, what was your idea? Decision-making is still done by the general public, but "politicians" exist to sway their votes? |
| 19:28.06 | Ghelae | And that depends. What kind of magic is it? |
| 19:28.26 | Angrybirds | Alright. What did you guys think of my Secretary General idea, an executive who leads the UN as an organization, heads its military, makes relations with alien nations on behalf of humanity, is a negotiator between human nations, etc. |
| 19:28.42 | dromlexer | Why isn't every featured articles marked with the box used to mark an article as featured? |
| 19:28.43 | Hachi_ | I liked it |
| 19:28.54 | dromlexer | And articles that has been featured. |
| 19:29.04 | Wormy | I'd like to make a Kindred Coalition representative |
| 19:29.09 | Angrybirds | Do it. |
| 19:29.14 | Cyrannian | It's my personal view that its realistic to think that two trends will continue: Distrust towards politicians and government and a rapid growth in the influence and prevalence in the Internet. |
| 19:29.44 | Cyrannian | Ghelae: Exactly, that would also mean that the UN candidate vote would still go ahead. |
| 19:29.49 | Angrybirds | The character who would occupy that position would be elected by the human community. |
| 19:30.38 | Ghelae | Since you've not answered my question, I'll assume that the beans are infused with kitten-eating magic and I'll go ahead and make the blog now. |
| 19:30.57 | Wormy | Jaffa cake flavour? |
| 19:31.13 | Cyrannian | I also think it would make sense if we avoided a name that had connotations with Earth and baseline humans. I'd imagine that elements such as the Kindred Coalition would be miffed by that. |
| 19:31.32 | Cyrannian | Ghelae: Jaffa cake flavoured kitten magic. |
| 19:31.33 | Angrybirds | For the UN? I'd rather it keep its name. |
| 19:31.46 | Ghelae | That's the best kind of kitten magic! |
| 19:32.26 | Hachi_ | Yamato would disagree entirely with the Kindred Coalition's stance |
| 19:32.28 | Hachi_ | He'd think everybody was accomodating for aliens |
| 19:32.58 | Wormy | Japan Samurai mechas vs.Klingons :P |
| 19:33.12 | Cyrannian | I also think it would be cool if we could tie in elements of the Human Republic and the original Humanity fiction. Perhaps the Jovar are members? |
| 19:33.13 | Hachi_ | hur |
| 19:33.34 | Cyrannian | Or at least some of them |
| 19:33.36 | Angrybirds | Cyrannian : Sure. |
| 19:33.44 | Wormy | Part of the reason I created the KIndred Coalition was to tie everything together |
| 19:34.00 | Wormy | Next I need to tie in the extragalactic humabs |
| 19:34.07 | Angrybirds | I feel like the UN would have alien and plenty of human members. |
| 19:34.19 | Cyrannian | Wormy: That would be cool, I forgot to respond to it above (about Cyrannus Humanoids) |
| 19:34.27 | Hachi_ | Yamato - dum immigrant foreigners |
| 19:34.41 | Angrybirds | It'd act more like a government for the Plazith Rim than a simply human government. |
| 19:34.57 | Wormy | Toberek has already contacted the DI to talk about their connections with Orion Spur humans |
| 19:35.37 | Wormy | @Hachi: I can see the Yamato winning this one |
| 19:36.39 | Cyrannian | If it is going to act like an organisation that isn't limited to humans, it would make a lot of sense if it avoided a bias towards a particular element of human history that I'd imagine not a lot of future human citizens would put a lot of faith in given the devastating conflicts since the 21st century |
| 19:37.32 | Wormy | If this is part of The Civilisation, this would be a hub for aliens of all kinds |
| 19:37.54 | Wormy | There would no problem or should be none from any biases like that |
| 19:38.32 | Wormy | I'm goiung to use this as an opportunity to anncounce an idea I had last night |
| 19:38.59 | Cyrannian | <PROTECTED> |
| 19:39.05 | Angrybirds | Cyrannian : I'd actually argue that it evolved into incorporating aliens as humanity expanded, small ones at first with strong ties to humanity. |
| 19:39.21 | Wormy | Angrybirds: When you finish your map, I might create a video showing a sequence of Plazith Rim's history, the territories changing and so on |
| 19:39.33 | Cyrannian | That seems humanocentric to me. |
| 19:39.52 | Ghelae | The Civilisation provides a huge variety of benefits to its members besides direct use of the AIs. |
| 19:40.15 | Ghelae | There are the resource and energy transfer networks, for example. |
| 19:40.40 | Wormy | Projects and goals beyond our 21st century limits of imagination! |
| 19:40.56 | Angrybirds | Cyrannian : Yet it makes sense. It would evolve from being a human-based organization to a wider international one. |
| 19:41.17 | Ghelae | One of the AIs has a job performing scientific simulations in fields of chemistry from medicine to materials science (and scientists and engineers across the galaxy presumably put these to the test all the time). |
| 19:41.52 | Ghelae | You want to know what the piezooptic coefficient of Grimbolsaurian saliva is? It's all there in the Civilisation's databases! :P |
| 19:42.34 | Wormy | There are no-go areas of the AI-Netspace though, but you'd have a hard time interacting with it. |
| 19:44.28 | Cyrannian | Angrybirds: I personally don't think aliens joining a UN that is more-or-less identical to the modern incarnation makes any sense at all. :P |
| 19:46.05 | Cyrannian | However, I suppose it is possible that humanity meets an ally and agrees to merge the UN with a similar alien organisation. |
| 19:46.27 | Cyrannian | Over a long period of mutual friendship and trust, obviously |
| 19:47.51 | Hachi_ | Yamato - No. |
| 19:48.03 | Wormy | I've started uses Indesign to write reports. Its much much nicer than Office |
| 19:48.25 | Angrybirds | Cyrannian: Think about it. Humanity his several hundred systems, while an alien nation with two might want to benefit from the community. |
| 19:48.58 | Angrybirds | ^ This is in the past, and this would probably spark a large debate. But it would set a precedent and soon aliens are joining left and right. |
| 19:49.08 | Hachi_ | This is why Yamato doesn't contribute its soldiers or its tech to anybody :P |
| 19:49.33 | Hachi_ | Their/His interests are purely human-centered |
| 19:49.43 | Wormy | It has more than several hundred. The Kindred Coalition probably has thousands collectively, and are older than Terran humanity in space. |
| 19:50.36 | Cyrannian | If the Kindred Coalition is older and has thousands more systems, what would be the difference in the UN merging with it? |
| 19:50.37 | Angrybirds | Wormy : In present, yes |
| 19:51.00 | Angrybirds | I imagine France would have tens of thousands of systems at least. |
| 19:51.31 | Wormy | What are the most isolationist or hostile human factions currently? I guess the Ottomans and Yamato. Who else? |
| 19:51.48 | Ghelae | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Ghelæ/Human_Politics_Stuff |
| 19:51.59 | Wormy | Euraspact? Far too inactive to tell |
| 19:53.24 | Hachi_ | Euraspact is pretty active |
| 19:53.26 | Hachi_ | As is POTATO |
| 19:53.27 | dromlexer | I spent alot time on biology, the rest is basics, but finished as far now in my opinion. What do you guys think? |
| 19:53.27 | dromlexer | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Creature:Aemonkian |
| 19:53.44 | Hachi_ | And Yamato isn't actually isolationist, but they are very hostile |
| 19:53.58 | Hachi_ | To aliens, anyway |
| 19:54.21 | dromlexer | I haven't spent much time on individuals, because I forgot my Spore cds at my dorm. |
| 19:55.07 | Hachi_ | ngh can't access wiki right now |
| 19:56.10 | Hachi_ | brb |
| 19:57.11 | dromlexer | k |
| 19:57.17 | dromlexer | is sad day |
| 19:57.20 | Wormy | Perhaps in the earlier centuries, but I'm struggling to see much need for conflict at all after the 26th century |
| 19:57.43 | dromlexer | Anyone got a feedback on my creature? |
| 19:57.56 | Wormy | Perhaps Humanity isn't as chaotic as the DCP thinks |
| 19:58.35 | Wormy | I'll have a look later, I should be working |
| 19:59.57 | Ghelae | dromlexer: You've definitely put a lot of thought into the biology. Perhaps you should divide it into subsections (e.g. body plan, internal organs) to make specific information easier to locate. |
| 20:00.26 | dromlexer | Yeah. |
| 20:01.00 | dromlexer | Or putting that on a separate page and replace it with a conclusion and a link to the specific page. |
| 20:01.18 | Ghelae | A subpage is another possibility, yeah. |
| 20:02.19 | Ghelae | I'm not going to correct minor grammatical and stylistic errors, but technically speaking, "olfactory sense" is better terminology than "smelling sense". |
| 20:03.40 | Ghelae | I also don't know if you should talk about "mammal species" as though alien life necessarily fits into Terran phylogenetic groups, but it might be worth pointing out that the lack of olfaction is rare in the universe's terrestrial metazoan life overall, not just in mammalian species. |
| 20:05.10 | Ghelae | Otherwise, it's about as good a creature page as most, if not better. |
| 20:06.20 | dromlexer | Thanks for the feedback, I'll rewrite a bit about those you pointed out. |
| 20:06.48 | dromlexer | All people don't know olfactorial sense actually means in everyday talk. |
| 20:07.10 | Ghelae | Then they'll learn something new if they read your page. :P |
| 20:07.38 | Ghelae | You could mention "sense of smell" first, and then "olfaction" or "olfactory" in the same context to provide a clue. |
| 20:07.56 | dromlexer | Yeah, much easier if you put small explanations too. |
| 20:08.30 | dromlexer | like, "olfactorial, smelling sense". I wonder if I executed it correctly. |
| 20:09.13 | Ghelae | But, specifically, "smelling sense" - and "____ing sense" in general - isn't a phrase I think I've ever heard. "Sense of _____" is much more common. |
| 20:09.26 | dromlexer | Since the biology is pretty big, so I moved it from the characteristics to it's own place. So the navigation box won't be a' wonky. |
| 20:09.56 | dromlexer | Interesting. |
| 20:11.05 | Cyrannian | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog_comment:Ghel%C3%A6/Human_Politics_Stuff/@comment-Cyrannian-20140219200939?curid=180775&oldid=585381 - What do you think? |
| 20:11.40 | dromlexer | I don't really execute the "sense of ____" in my native language, since eg. sense of smelling is translated as "luktsinne" which directly translates as "smelling sense". |
| 20:14.29 | dromlexer | Ghelae: I still can execute eg. "mammal aliens"? |
| 20:14.57 | Ghelae | "Mammal aliens", or perhaps "mammalian aliens", is perfectly acceptable grammar. |
| 20:15.25 | dromlexer | Ah, thanks. |

| 21:29.35 | Xho | That game's good even now |
| 21:29.36 | Monet | Same |
| 21:29.37 | dromlexer | Oh yes. |
| 21:30.01 | dromlexer | I used to play them when I was little shit. |
| 21:30.01 | Monet | That one event in SIms SUperstar still makes me laugh. |
| 21:30.06 | Cyrannian_ | Same. And I remember the expansion with Marilyn Monroe. |
| 21:30.07 | dromlexer | It's was my sister's cd. So. |
| 21:30.33 | Ghel | This is starting to turn into a nostalgia-fest. |
| 21:30.49 | dromlexer | And that expansion with shops and fancy counters |
| 21:31.08 | Monet | My sim invites a celebrity to his house, celebrity cooks dinner, sets herself and the kitchen on fire. |
| 21:31.10 | Hachi_ | I remember watching Johnny Bravo as a child |
| 21:31.10 | Xho | https://pbs.twimg.com/media/BQV0NExCQAAeSM9.jpg Now Jesus that's old |
| 21:31.13 | Hachi_ | That kind of explains a lot |
| 21:31.25 | dromlexer | So tiny |
| 21:31.52 | Monet | Ba-do ba doo, dooh, ah-do ba dooh, ba-dooh... |
| 21:32.06 | Cyrannian_ | I remember the Godzilla cartoon, Pinky and the Brain, Thomas the Tank Engine and my own personal Pokemon craze |
| 21:32.08 | dromlexer | Hell, that expanison with pets expanded the area further. |
| 21:32.26 | dromlexer | And those old pokemon shows |
| 21:32.32 | dromlexer | Ed Edd n Eddy. |
| 21:32.33 | dromlexer | Shit |
| 21:32.42 | Ghel | I could never bring myself to collect many expansion packs for any of the Sims games. But my favourite bit was Makin' Magic. And generally anything to do with magic. |
| 21:32.46 | dromlexer | I was to watch all of them, again and again. |
| 21:33.18 | Cyrannian_ | I remember crying that one episode of Pokemon when Ash had to keep Charizard from dying by keeping his tail-fire lit during heavy rain. |
| 21:33.24 | Xho | Ghel: Skeleton maid |
| 21:33.28 | Cyrannian_ | *in that one episode |
| 21:33.31 | Ghel | Which you might not expect for someone doing a degree in Natural Sciences, but if there were a degree in *Unnatural* Sciences, I would totally be doing that, |
| 21:33.32 | dromlexer | Anyone who seen EEnE remember that scene where Edd got his head inside a doll house. |
| 21:33.33 | Hachi_ | Cyrannian_: Charmander, you mean |
| 21:33.46 | Ghel | doing that instead* |
| 21:33.51 | Monet | Cyrannian: thatt's bringing me to tears. |
| 21:34.05 | Monet | I adored Ash's Charmander as a kid! |
| 21:34.11 | Hachi_ | But |
| 21:34.15 | Hachi_ | Charmander was a little shit |
| 21:34.25 | Ghel | Xho: I actually prefered the Servo, but I usually had both in my houses. |
| 21:34.31 | Xho | Wow Servo |
| 21:34.34 | Xho | That's going really far back |
| 21:34.39 | Cyrannian_ | I thought he only became a little shit when he evolved into Charmeleon |
| 21:34.42 | Xho | "The Age of Servo" |
| 21:34.45 | Hachi_ | Well |
| 21:34.46 | Hachi_ | Yeah |
| 21:34.56 | Hachi_ | Then it continued into his Charizard days |
| 21:34.59 | Hachi_ | And he'd do nothing Ash wanted |
| 21:35.05 | Ghel | And I often killed off Sims so that there'd be ghosts in the garden for the next Sim to live with. |
| 21:35.08 | Monet | I don't rreally remember what he was like past Charmander. |
| 21:35.13 | Ghel | It was really easy. Just get them to set off fireworks inside. |
| 21:35.18 | Cyrannian_ | I wuved Charmander because of his slight resemblance to a dinosaur. :D |
| 21:35.20 | dromlexer | Quick Shot Ed was one of the funniest Ed Edd n Eddy episodes that I have ever seen. |
| 21:35.20 | Xho | I only ever watched like the first series of Pokemon, it wasn't the same without Brock |
| 21:35.29 | Hachi_ | Aye |
| 21:35.38 | Hachi_ | Brock is like |
| 21:35.45 | Hachi_ | My personal inspiration |
| 21:36.02 | Ghel | I do vaguely remember watching Pokemon, but I don't recall any details. |
| 21:36.18 | Cyrannian_ | And then I remember loving Yu-Gi-Oh |
| 21:36.26 | Monet | I'm goin got do some tweaking to Pax Draconica. |
| 21:36.38 | Cyrannian_ | All those effeminate villains out to steal yer soul |
| 21:36.49 | Xho | My life went sort of downhill after I was introduced to Silent Witness as a kid |
| 21:37.06 | Xho | My parents never seemed to stop me from watching it |
| 21:37.15 | Xho | And now I can't get those images out of my head |
| 21:37.18 | *** join/#sporewiki Liquid_Ink_ (65a556ed@gateway/web/freenode/ip.101.165.86.237) |
| 21:37.27 | Xho | And there's the origin of my morbid fear of corpses |
| 21:37.51 | Liquid_Ink_ | Damn. I missed it. |
| 21:37.52 | Monet | I remember watching Horizon as far back as at least 11 years old. |
| 21:37.55 | Cyrannian_ | I thought they brightened up your day |
| 21:37.59 | Liquid_Ink_ | I don't supposed you'd repeat it? |
| 21:38.05 | Cyrannian_ | My life is a lie |
| 21:38.19 | Xho | That imagery though |
| 21:38.28 | Xho | You shouldn't show that to like a 9 year old |
| 21:38.31 | Ghel | Cyr: He enjoys *making* corpses, not looking at them. |
| 21:38.39 | Cyrannian_ | I remember watching Signs as a kid and it scared the hell out of me. |
| 21:39.03 | Cyrannian_ | And the fact that my dad and sister were huge X-Files fans didn't help at all |
| 21:39.20 | Xho | X-Files was some serious shit hur |
| 21:39.29 | Xho | Music still spooks me slightly |
| 21:39.35 | Xho | As well as the Silent Witness music |
| 21:39.38 | Xho | That really spooks me |
| 21:39.39 | dromlexer | Man, Anyone have seen Ed Edd n Eddy. |
| 21:39.58 | Monet | Signs was chilling, then I watched Nostalgia Critic's review and I can't take the aliens seriously anymore. |
| 21:39.58 | dromlexer | Those episodes makes me laugh even watching it for 10th time. |
| 21:40.00 | Xho | I can do pretty much anything except forensic murder dramas nowadays |
| 21:40.07 | Ghel | I remember that I used to be scared of the Grinch, purely from misremembered recollections of trailers for it in the cinema. Then I watched it and obviously I was completely fine. |
| 21:40.27 | Ghel | I think I was about 11 when I finally saw it. |
| 21:40.37 | Cyrannian_ | I don't think I even watched the film, it was just the scene at the birthday party terrified me. |
| 21:44.11 | Monet | I could watch Raiders of the Lost Ark all the way up to when they opened the ark itself. |
| 21:44.21 | Monet | Dat shit scarred me. |
| 21:44.51 | Xho | Ah yeah that's another one |
| 21:44.52 | Xho | Last Crusade |
| 21:44.55 | Xho | At the end |
| 21:45.01 | Xho | Donovan turns into a skeleton |
| 21:45.03 | Xho | naaaaah braaaaah |
| 21:45.19 | Xho | My childhood was messed up in retrospect |
| 21:45.30 | Cyrannian_ | Dat was scary shit |
| 21:45.37 | Liquid_Ink_ | I remember I used to be terrified of the first scene of A New Hope |
| 21:45.49 | Cyrannian_ | The Angel of Death popping up to say hai in particular freaked me out |
| 21:46.01 | Liquid_Ink_ | And also Monsters Inc. That shit freaked me out. |
| 21:46.18 | Xho | Liquid_Ink_: bro wat u talkin about |
| 21:46.23 | Cyrannian_ | Oh, the autopsy scene in Independence Day |
| 21:46.27 | Monet | I was fine for Last Crusade - sure Donovan turned into a skeleton but my child mind misinterpreted what the night said. |
| 21:46.33 | Monet | knight* |
| 21:46.45 | Monet | "he chose...poorly" he did look very poorly. |
| 21:46.56 | Xho | Monet: Imagine replacing the knight with Psi |
| 21:47.12 | Liquid_Ink_ | Xho: I was scared of Monsters Inc. That chameleon dude kept me awake at night. |
| 21:47.23 | Monet | You mean the whole "stands up and draws hsi swordo nly to fall backwards"? |
| 21:47.49 | Monet | Cyrannian: Release...me...now! |
| 21:47.52 | Xho | That would be a hell of a sword for Psi to fall over |
| 21:48.42 | Cyrannian_ | Ngh, so creepy |

| 21:57.54 | Monet | The title reminds me of another old show I used to watch |
| 21:57.55 | Monet | Jhonny Quest. |
| 21:58.06 | Hachi_ | I prefer Johnny Bravo |
| 21:58.19 | dromlexer | Noh Ed Edd n Eddy |
| 21:58.43 | Wormy | I found that too weird |
| 21:58.50 | Wormy | And that is saying something |
| 21:58.58 | Monet | I also remember a period of Where In The World Is Carmen Sanidego. |
| 21:59.01 | dromlexer | What's weird? |
| 21:59.10 | Wormy | Ed Edd n Eddy |
| 21:59.15 | dromlexer | Ah. |
| 21:59.20 | AdmiralPanda | Johnny Bravo was hilarious |
| 21:59.35 | AdmiralPanda | as a kid you always wanted him to get the girl, as a grown man you realise he doesn't have a chance |
| 21:59.38 | dromlexer | I didn't get the Johnny Bravo. |
| 22:00.06 | dromlexer | And anyone know Courage the Coward dog? |
| 22:00.10 | Monet | I remember a few episodes as a teen |
| 22:00.11 | Hachi_ | Aye |
| 22:00.14 | Hachi_ | That show was horrifying |
| 22:00.16 | Monet | of Johnny Bravo |
| 22:00.22 | dromlexer | And funny at same time |
| 22:00.38 | dromlexer | I remember where Courage feel downstairs with a door to the head. |
| 22:01.08 | Monet | Ed Edd and Eddy, Courage, Ren and Stimpy - Three shows I do not fancy watching. |
| 22:01.35 | Wormy | I like Catdog |
| 22:01.45 | dromlexer | I loved Scooby Doo, Courage, Tom n Jerry and Ed Edd n Eddy. That's all. |
| 22:01.51 | Wormy | Pinky the Brain |
| 22:01.59 | Wormy | Samurai Jack. |
| 22:02.07 | Wormy | Scooby Doo |
| 22:02.10 | dromlexer | Don't forget the Power Girls and Dexter's Lab |
| 22:02.11 | Monet | Oh yes! Pinky and the Brain! |
| 22:02.18 | Hachi_ | Ooh Samurai Jack and Pinky and the Brain |
| 22:02.23 | Hachi_ | I loved Samurai Jack |
| 22:02.30 | dromlexer | Powerpuff Girls. |
| 22:02.32 | AdmiralPanda | Samurai Jack is awesome |
| 22:02.46 | dromlexer | I didn't watch much of it but it was a touching show |
| 22:02.53 | Monet | I always liked that metal body Brain used - it made him 8ft tall but he still ahd his ow nhead so it looked so dtupid. |
| 22:02.54 | Wormy | I'd still watch it if I could |
| 22:02.57 | Monet | stupid* |
| 22:03.01 | Hachi_ | Aku is perhaps one of my favourite cartoon villains |
| 22:03.11 | Hachi_ | He's horrifying in his own aspects |
| 22:03.17 | Hachi_ | Yet comedic |
| 22:03.38 | AdmiralPanda | I mean come on, the shapeshifting master of evil can't even tell a bunch of kids a story that makes him look cooler than Jack |
| 22:03.40 | dromlexer | Anyone remember that Satan from Powerpuff Girls. |
| 22:03.55 | Cyrannian_ | God yes |
| 22:04.08 | Hachi_ | dromlexer: All I remember was a character called "Him" or something |
| 22:04.14 | AdmiralPanda | yeah it was Him |
| 22:04.16 | Wormy | You've just brought a memory to surface |
| 22:04.16 | Cyrannian_ | He was so fabulously camp |
| 22:04.18 | Hachi_ | Him was horrifying for me for some reason |
| 22:04.31 | dromlexer | Ah yes. |
| 22:04.31 | AdmiralPanda | he only had one good episode I really remember |
| 22:04.38 | AdmiralPanda | that one where he invaded the kids' dreams |
| 22:04.43 | dromlexer | Ey, Chicken and Cow! |
| 22:04.47 | AdmiralPanda | the rest made him look so bad |
| 22:04.52 | Wormy | Thomas the Tank Engine was horrifying to me once. |
| 22:05.03 | Hachi_ | Wormy: Do you remember the boulder with a face |
| 22:05.34 | dromlexer | Hachi_: You are now making think of Super Mario |
| 22:05.39 | Wormy | Bad nightmires. BAD |
| 22:06.36 | dromlexer | I find the Scooby Doo episode where the team investigated an Ice cream factory. |
| 22:06.44 | dromlexer | Oh god, those ghosts still scare me. |
| 22:07.03 | Wormy | Hachi_ This guy in Teletubbies also scared me http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hMwDTv7akJ4 |
| 22:08.17 | Hachi_ | Wormy: Why did you have to remind me of that |
| 22:09.32 | Wormy | So when he finally comes after us all, it won't be too much of a shock. |
| 22:09.39 | dromlexer | Wormy: I find anything wrong with that. |
| 22:11.08 | Wormy | It sounds like a scheming demon. |
| 22:11.50 | dromlexer | Okay |
| 22:11.54 | dromlexer | Those ghosts |
| 22:11.55 | dromlexer | http://scoobydoo.wikia.com/wiki/The_Ghost_of_The_Bad_Humor_Man |
| 22:12.15 | Hachi_ | I remember those ghosts] |
| 22:12.20 | Hachi_ | Absolutely horrifying |
| 22:12.40 | dromlexer | The brown was more horrifying |
| 22:14.39 | Wormy | The stuff they put on for young kids is defintely right out of an acid trip. |
| 22:15.58 | dromlexer | Hah |
| 22:15.59 | dromlexer | Yeah |
| 22:16.21 | dromlexer | Anyway, it was my favorite, even it gave me chills. |

| 22:50.02 | Monet | Goodnight |
| 22:50.02 | TekDroid | Looks great. What's an Aedan though? |
| 22:50.09 | TekDroid | Bye Cyr |
| 22:50.15 | Monet | Tekdroid: Subsector governor. |
| 22:50.23 | TekDroid | Ah. |
| 22:50.44 | TekDroid | I like it, interesting but logical system. |
| 22:52.43 | Monet | Given the advancement in technology and society I imagine that while the Grand Senate usually convenes on Alcanti, viceroies can defer to the reps in their part of the 1st gig. |
| 22:53.29 | Monet | Since the two primary civillian councils - the Homeland council and the provincial council - are made up of praetors and province representetives respectively. |
| 22:53.39 | TekDroid | I had that on a smaller scale in Farengeto |
| 22:54.20 | TekDroid | So it seems the KneeOn Purrpull eye in the DI mod crashes my game. |
| 22:55.10 | Monet | Vesperon may get touchy with this since Viceroies can act without his say so. |
| 22:56.41 | Monet | Then again...they're all picked by the paragon. |
| 22:56.53 | Monet | whilist the chancellor is picked by the Grand Senate. |
| 22:58.16 | TekDroid | Interesting |
| 22:58.54 | Monet | As i mentioned earlier, in regards to the system of governance for provinces...the Grand Senate tends to turn a largely blind eye. |
| 22:59.09 | Monet | So long as the system remains productive, of course |
| 23:06.21 | TekDroid | Makes sense |
| 23:11.26 | Monet | "Due to the vast scales of the Imperium, most meetings are conducted through holoconferencing, using advanced 3D hologram technology to temporarily convert even a modest office or an individual's bedroom into a seat within the Grand Senate's rotunda in Minos'Drakon." |
