| 01:41.00 | DrodoEmpire | Nice |
| 01:41.21 | DrodoEmpire | So much for a loaded question on Randomness' part. XD |
| 01:47.20 | Tybusen | Rene gives a blunt rant and Zhen gives an impassioned speech about how humanity is awesome |
| 01:48.08 | DrodoEmpire | I wouldn't call it a blunt rant; I'd call it straightforward, yeah |
| 01:48.12 | DrodoEmpire | But not blunt. |
| 01:48.42 | DrodoEmpire | In the end they have similar messages but I like how Rene actually explained more about it. |
| 01:49.22 | Tybusen | I figured that since Rene and Zhen have similar views on the disunified state of humanity, I wouldn't bother repeating too much of what Rene already said |
| 01:49.44 | DrodoEmpire | Hmm, I see |
| 01:50.08 | Tybusen | And Zhen is more inclined to go for rhetorical appeal rather than reason appeal (which is more of Rene's territory) |
| 01:50.30 | DrodoEmpire | Right |
| 01:51.17 | Tybusen | When you make your political career in a borderline single-party socialist state, rhetoric serves you much better than logic |
| 01:51.29 | DrodoEmpire | True |

| 02:18.46 | Tek0516Droid | My big screw-up in Space Engineers got even worse. XD |
| 02:20.55 | DrodoEmpire | Uh oh |
| 02:20.56 | DrodoEmpire | XD |
| 02:28.21 | Tek0516Droid | I'd used one of my ships to launch a raid on an enemy one. |
| 02:28.29 | DrodoEmpire | How'd that go? |
| 02:28.56 | Tek0516Droid | As I closed in and locked on, I learned the hard way one of my missile launchers was backwards. |
| 02:29.47 | Tek0516Droid | Which wipes out my cockpit while drifting at top soeed. |
| 02:29.47 | DrodoEmpire | lol |
| 02:30.34 | Tek0516Droid | I had to go so I'd closed my laptop. I open it again and I'd drifted over 150km out. |
| 02:30.41 | DrodoEmpire | hur |
| 02:31.50 | Tek0516Droid | Things can get a little glitchy at the game's spped limit (everything's shaking like crazy) so I quickly replace and repair a few parts and turn around. |
| 02:33.02 | Tek0516Droid | I go outside and try and fix up a few more parts turning the slow transit, then spent the next few minutes trying to keep with the ship and get in. |
| 02:33.28 | Tek0516Droid | Missing the doorway a few times and falling half a km behind. DX |
| 02:34.14 | Tek0516Droid | Fortunately the character speed limit is slightly higher than the vehicle one. XD |
| 02:34.59 | DrodoEmpire | lol |
| 02:45.25 | DrodoEmpire | So apparently Lindsay Lohan is suing the makers of GTA V because they allegedly used her likeness. What an idiot. |
| 02:45.50 | DrodoEmpire | Like, of all times to sue, WHY months after its release? Like, the damage is done |
| 02:46.18 | OfficerJackal | Top kek. |
| 02:46.21 | DrodoEmpire | And even then, when you look at it, I can... Sorta see what she means, but I don't think its worth a lawsuit. |
| 02:57.40 | Tek0516Droid | Well after fixing up my ship I tried raiding anotjer ship again... |
| 02:59.53 | Tek0516Droid | Two passes latter both my turrets were dead, one launcher destroyed and the other disabled, hull ripped apart my MG fire and multiple thrusters disabled. |
| 03:00.04 | Tek0516Droid | Target survived. |
| 03:00.08 | DrodoEmpire | That's what you get for RDM'ing. |
| 03:00.09 | DrodoEmpire | XD |
| 03:00.22 | Tek0516Droid | RDM? |
| 03:00.25 | DrodoEmpire | Anyway, that actually sucks. :P |
| 03:00.31 | DrodoEmpire | Random Death Match. |
| 03:00.35 | DrodoEmpire | A GMod thing. |
| 03:00.39 | DrodoEmpire | Never heard of it? |
| 03:00.57 | Tek0516Droid | Well actually these were AI ships. |
| 03:01.10 | DrodoEmpire | Ah |
| 03:01.50 | Tek0516Droid | Conclusion: Raiding military ships with a modified escape pod is a bad idea. :P |
| 03:02.20 | DrodoEmpire | Well just a bit of background; RDM'ing is a bannable offence on a lot of GMod servers, mostly roleplay ones where the objective is to, well, roleplay. Though in these servers killing in self-defence or if its part of your job is allowed. |
| 03:02.32 | DrodoEmpire | lol |
| 03:03.53 | Tek0516Droid | Ah. |
| 03:04.14 | Tek0516Droid | Yeah, this was just AI ships that randomly spawn. |
| 03:04.40 | DrodoEmpire | Ah |
| 03:05.40 | Tek0516Droid | It was probably also a bad idea to raid a heavy armor ship in a ship made of light armor. XD |
| 03:05.54 | DrodoEmpire | Probably. |
| 03:05.56 | DrodoEmpire | XD |
| 03:06.41 | Tek0516Droid | I basically took the starting ship for this map and strapped a few guns on. |
| 03:07.35 | DrodoEmpire | lol |
| 03:14.36 | Tek0516Droid | I think I'll stick to mining shios for now. XS |

| 10:32.38 | Monet_ | Hello |
| 10:33.55 | Liquid_Ink | HOw are you? |
| 10:34.28 | Monet_ | Feeling good. I'm getting started on a list of the Imperium's provinces. |
| 10:36.20 | AdmiralPanda | hi Mon |
| 10:38.36 | Monet_ | “The Draconid Imperium is more than a collection of states who have submitted their sovereignty for our own, it is more than an empire. It is a philosophy; that culture and opinion is merely a superficial obstacle to unity. And nowhere is that more clear than in the diversity of its clients, where presidents, despots, emperors and chairmen are all equal before the paragavatus” |
| 10:38.46 | Monet_ | How's that for a sumary of Pax Draconica? |
| 10:39.04 | Monet_ | are all equal in unity before* |
| 10:40.07 | Monet_ | “The Draconid Imperium is more than a collection of states who have submitted their sovereignty for our own, it is more than an empire. It is a philosophy; that culture and opinion is merely a superficial obstacle to unity. And nowhere is that more clear than in the diversity of its clients, where presidents, despots, emperors and chairmen alike salute under one banner” |
| 10:40.11 | Monet_ | There, better version |
| 11:40.55 | AdmiralPanda | I'd love to play Space Engineers with you guys, too bad it's buggy as hell in multiplayer |
| 11:41.53 | Monet_ | My version's a bit laggy, it may be my processor |
| 11:42.00 | Monet_ | laggy in singleplayer sometimes* |
| 11:43.31 | AdmiralPanda | thing is though, in multiplayer only the host can use landing gears otherwise there's all sorts of retarded bugs, just to name one |
| 11:43.51 | Monet_ | Shit that is buggy |
| 11:44.45 | AdmiralPanda | yeah, like if someone other than the host locks landing gears onto a bigger ship and someone drives that ship, it flies all over the place and breaks |
| 11:45.02 | AdmiralPanda | you can manage it, but it's annoying |
| 11:52.57 | AdmiralPanda | once it gets its shit sorted though, I'd love to run a shipyard with you guys, survive meteor strikes and all that |
| 11:53.09 | AdmiralPanda | and then eventually betray you all with my secret gravity coilgun |
| 11:53.12 | AdmiralPanda | I mean wha |
| 11:53.52 | Monet_ | Meanie |
| 11:54.00 | AdmiralPanda | I wouldn't do that |
| 11:54.00 | Monet_ | ALTHOUGH |
| 11:54.07 | AdmiralPanda | the coil gun would be pointed at the pirates |
| 11:54.16 | Monet_ | Getting into Starbound I had this idea we could all try building a small interstellar empire |
| 11:54.30 | Monet_ | Theoretically, its possible |
| 11:54.38 | AdmiralPanda | which one is star bound? is that the one that's like Terrarria just in space? |
| 11:54.52 | Monet_ | Yeah |
| 11:56.23 | Monet_ | Although looking at Steam, Catface is the only one who has it |
| 11:56.32 | Monet_ | apart from me |
| 11:57.02 | AdmiralPanda | I could get it, but it just never seemed that interesting to me |
| 11:59.50 | Monet_ | The only real space elements at the moment are exploring asteroid fields or flying between planets in a spaceship |
| 12:00.21 | AdmiralPanda | which is part of the reason I just thought "Why not Terrarria?" tbh |
| 12:00.44 | AdmiralPanda | actually this reminds me, weren't we contemplating running a Minecraft thing now that Realms is live? |

| 12:02.34 | Monet_ | One person pays Mojang about £8 am onths for a 24-7 server. Unfortunately those servers don't support mods |
| 12:02.41 | Monet_ | CountImperios: Hello there |
| 12:02.49 | CountImperios | Hello! |
| 12:03.30 | AdmiralPanda | I can do without mods, and I'd be able to put the occasional moneys towards running the server |
| 12:04.35 | Monet_ | £8/month for an entire group isn't too bad |
| 12:04.55 | AdmiralPanda | not really no |
| 12:05.02 | AdmiralPanda | the other question is, survival or creative? |
| 12:05.24 | AdmiralPanda | cus I'd love to do a joint survival thing with some of you guys |
| 12:05.37 | Monet_ | Good question actually. |
| 12:06.19 | Monet_ | Previous incarnations of the server have been creative; where users have gotten to work buildign cathedrals and stuff |
| 12:07.27 | CountImperios | I like survival more personally |
| 12:08.19 | Monet_ | Actually with survival if we do decide on massive projects li a cathedral, it would give us an indentive to build the infrastructure needed for these projects. |
| 12:08.32 | Monet_ | For instance: Farms. |
| 12:08.49 | AdmiralPanda | it's gonna be interesting trying to survive without my precious Natura |
| 12:09.09 | Monet_ | My concern with survival is creepers |
| 12:09.23 | Monet_ | Unless we decide to run a carebear server and go peaceful |
| 12:09.28 | AdmiralPanda | creepers are always a problem |
| 12:09.35 | AdmiralPanda | nah, that's for weaklings |
| 12:10.50 | AdmiralPanda | besides, part of the fun of survival is knowing that if you don't watch your back you could lose many important things |
| 12:11.02 | Monet_ | Yeah. |
| 12:11.29 | AdmiralPanda | oh man, I just realised that things are going to be way harder without natura |
| 12:11.49 | AdmiralPanda | slower growing crops, needing more of them |
| 12:12.01 | AdmiralPanda | I'm looking forward to this |

| 12:14.15 | AdmiralPanda | oh god, no drying racks either |
| 12:14.22 | AdmiralPanda | zombie meat is useless again |
| 12:15.21 | Monet_ | Natura soudns like Minecraft ez mode |
| 12:16.09 | AdmiralPanda | it's food ez mode |
| 12:16.37 | AdmiralPanda | there's an alternate wheat that grows a lot faster and only takes one to make bread (although you have to cook it instead of crafting) and there's drying racks that turn zombie meat into meat jerky |
| 12:16.45 | AdmiralPanda | thereby removing the risk of poisoning yourself |
| 12:17.15 | Monet_ | I see |
| 12:17.54 | AdmiralPanda | I'll probably just have to build a bigger farm is all |
| 12:19.52 | Monet_ | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Draconid_Imperium/Provinces started on this |
| 12:20.50 | Monet_ | Oluap if you want to fill in/rename the Sublime Republic of the Sambel Kind section. |
| 12:20.57 | Angrybirds | Monet_ : I love the quote. You might want to add a map of some kind so we can visualize the different provinces in relation to each other. |
| 12:21.27 | OluapPlayer | I don't even know what that is |
| 12:21.40 | Monet_ | OluapPLayer: Its the Verivok's space |
| 12:21.49 | OluapPlayer | Ah |
| 12:22.02 | OluapPlayer | Alright I should've guessed that |
| 12:22.13 | Monet_ | No worried lol |
| 12:22.45 | Monet_ | Angrybirds: Could od yeah, and for a long time I have been meaning to make a map of the Imperium |
| 12:23.09 | Angrybirds | Maps help a lot. ^.^ |
| 12:23.32 | Monet_ | For a long time I've felt overwhelmed making a detailed Imperium map because its just so big. |
| 12:24.42 | OluapPlayer | I can fill it now but I'm not sure what to put under Date of annexation and Grand Senate Representative |
| 12:24.50 | Monet_ | Actually you know what: I made a 2ft tall clay and plaster model of Uriel complete with latex wing membranes and a cloak I cut and sewed together myself. I can make this map. |
| 12:26.51 | Monet_ | OluapPlayer: Its when they joined so I suppose any date will do. If you want to wokr out an earth date just multiply the current Imperial year (ID.219508) by 1.14 to get how many earth years its been around |
| 12:27.37 | OluapPlayer | Guess I'll just come up with a number hur |
| 12:28.44 | Monet_ | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Draconid_Imperium/Houses here's a selection of noble houses since all grand senate reps are draconis |
| 12:29.26 | OluapPlayer | So do I have to choose one? |
| 12:30.14 | Monet_ | Or you can make up your own. General rule of thumb is that the name sounds Roman. |
| 12:33.35 | OluapPlayer | House Voxis maybe? I don't see any province with a Voxis representative so far |
| 12:33.52 | Monet_ | Sure. |
| 12:34.36 | OluapPlayer | rite I need a name for this dood or doodette |
| 12:35.54 | Monet_ | Kalaus? (dood) Danareva (doodete) |
| 12:36.25 | OluapPlayer | I'll go for Danareva |
| 12:36.58 | Monet_ | I was also planning on adding summaries of what each territory and culture is like.but you don't *have* to do that right now. |
| 12:37.14 | Angrybirds | Monet: I need to see this model. |
| 12:37.24 | OluapPlayer | dere filled it |
| 12:37.28 | Angrybirds | Are there pictures? |

| 12:39.17 | Angrybirds | *melts* |
| 12:39.54 | Angrybirds | So much yes. |
| 12:40.48 | Monet_ | I am quite proud of it. |
| 12:41.50 | Monet_ | Although I have wondered about making another version with a styrofoam body. |
| 12:45.52 | OluapPlayer | rite back |
| 12:46.27 | Monet_ | If I can build *that*. I can tackle maps of the Imperium. |
| 12:46.51 | Angrybirds | ^ |

| 13:19.10 | AdmiralPanda | it's annoying as all hell, and I'm really looking forward to Cleansing Flames ending so he can just be dead alread |
| 13:19.11 | Monet_ | Yeah those are rather pointless comments |

| 13:23.11 | OluapPlayer | That's a spoiler |
| 13:24.11 | AdmiralPanda | if? if she doesn't, I will |
| 13:24.17 | AdmiralPanda | and that's a promise |
| 13:24.29 | Monet_ | Damn... |
| 13:24.36 | OluapPlayer | hur |
| 13:24.43 | OluapPlayer | <PROTECTED> |
| 13:24.57 | OluapPlayer | <PROTECTED> |
| 13:26.04 | Monet_ | Well its just if he doesn't we might have a very angry Austrailian on our hands. |
| 13:26.49 | OluapPlayer | It doesn't matter if he's an angry australian, german, martian, he can't tell people what to do with their fiction hur |
| 13:27.23 | Monet_ | You don't want to anger an austrailian heh. |
| 13:27.36 | AdmiralPanda | I don't care what means I have to use, I will make that SoB die |
| 13:27.47 | OluapPlayer | I'm not as bothered with Xaltsa as I'm bothered by the fact I was kinda dragged into the Cleansing Flames |
| 13:27.55 | OluapPlayer | I want it to end so Jo can shut up about it |
| 13:28.47 | AdmiralPanda | how were you dragged into it? |
| 13:29.20 | OluapPlayer | Jo wanted me to do things with fiction we co-own and I kinda didn't have a say about it |
| 13:29.32 | AdmiralPanda | I see |
| 13:29.42 | OluapPlayer | I don't really mind helping her, I just got other priorities |
| 13:29.45 | Monet_ | Also on an in-universe level USO wants to genocide the galaxy think |
| 13:29.58 | AdmiralPanda | Forgive me if this is snarky, but didn't you just say people can't tell people what to do with their fiction |
| 13:30.20 | OluapPlayer | I did, which's why I removed most of my participation from the Cleansing Flames |
| 13:30.38 | OluapPlayer | I'm currently only participating as Da Rogue Boyz because we co-own them |
| 13:30.39 | AdmiralPanda | fair enough |
| 13:31.06 | OluapPlayer | USO can want to genocide the galaxy thrice over if they want, I won't let them hur |
| 13:31.41 | AdmiralPanda | can't you just let her do the Rogue Boyz stuff? I mean if it's co-owned and all |
| 13:32.07 | OluapPlayer | As I said I don't mind helping her with that |
| 13:32.22 | OluapPlayer | Also I don't want to remove myself entirely from the war, it would upset her too much |
| 13:32.55 | Monet_ | I know Jo wanted to portray in a more UNO in a less good-guy light but turning UNO into USO feels a bit extreme |
| 13:33.54 | Monet_ | Also didn't she want more than USO on the "order" side of the war? |
| 13:34.23 | OluapPlayer | That I don't know |
| 13:34.48 | OluapPlayer | But I doubt anyone in their right minds would side with USO for anything |
| 13:35.08 | Monet_ | That's the problem |
| 13:35.26 | Monet_ | USO has degenerated into the North Korea of the gigaquadrant |
| 13:35.31 | OluapPlayer | olol |
| 13:35.41 | OluapPlayer | Except this North Korea can actually fight |
| 13:35.57 | AdmiralPanda | have they actually won anything yet though? |
| 13:36.12 | AdmiralPanda | as far as I've seen, all that's happened is the Kill Team has just taken down USOC member after member |
| 13:36.34 | Monet_ | Well before then USO were blowing up a lot of planets |
| 13:36.49 | OluapPlayer | Yeah they had their share of victories |
| 13:36.51 | Monet_ | Literally...obliterating them. |
| 13:36.52 | AdmiralPanda | ah, I must have missed that part |
| 13:37.03 | OluapPlayer | They do have the firepower to destroy the PCA, I just would never allow Jo to do it hur |
| 13:39.31 | Wormy | A new one for LIquid's post - "Be careful where you sit - there's a bit of Pu on the bench" http://38.media.tumblr.com/0f548e2f278b6a4fd4cec766a28e649f/tumblr_n81tb6CVbU1rlpicfo1_1280.jpg |
| 13:40.04 | Monet_ | Lol |
| 13:41.53 | Monet_ | Form a tactical standpoint is sending the same group of spec-ops soldiers to take out each USOC soldier and supreme leader one at a time? |
| 13:42.14 | AdmiralPanda | rephrase please? |
| 13:42.16 | Monet_ | Iknow simoultaneous assassinations are harder to work on but they are reasonably doable. |
| 13:42.25 | Monet_ | OKay... |
| 13:42.47 | AdmiralPanda | I don't think your first line included an actual question |
| 13:43.33 | OluapPlayer | He's asking if sending the same team all the time is a good idea |
| 13:43.33 | Monet_ | So far we've had one kill-team going around USO territory killing USOCs members.. I'm just wondering if this is the best scheme that could win the war |
| 13:43.52 | AdmiralPanda | so far it seems to be working |
| 13:44.00 | OluapPlayer | Well the war most certainly won't be won just by getting rid of UNOC |
| 13:44.39 | AdmiralPanda | this is true, but they are a major asset |
| 13:45.12 | Monet_ | Well for example I had the DI send an agent to take out Xaltsa early on because plot. But he was able to get closer to Xaltsa without raising suspicion than any member of the kill-team has managed. |
| 13:45.13 | OluapPlayer | All this team talk kinda makes me want to work on the Vampire War |
| 13:45.20 | OluapPlayer | Imp needs to get back from Draculaland already |
| 13:45.24 | AdmiralPanda | please do :P |
| 13:46.13 | Monet_ | Well, what I meant by the first example was I sent an assassin to kill Xaltsa but plot said the dude had to fail. |
| 13:46.34 | AdmiralPanda | well that's plot not battlefield strategy |
| 13:46.41 | Monet_ | He was *right above* Xaltsa as well. |
| 13:47.05 | Monet_ | I'm just wondering why USO's enemies don't do mroe of that. |
| 13:47.24 | AdmiralPanda | Jo just doesn't understand the inherent flaws with visible enemies |
| 13:47.31 | OluapPlayer | I'm bothered that I want to show off stuff in fiction but doing it would be completely filler pointless/opposite to the plot |
| 13:47.43 | AdmiralPanda | if you put a high value target in view/range of the good guys, they are going to try to kill them |
| 13:48.11 | AdmiralPanda | Jo once mentioned to me she was annoyed about people taking fire off a USOC member to shoot at Xalsa |
| 13:48.32 | OluapPlayer | That's entirely her fault |
| 13:48.42 | OluapPlayer | If the enemy leader is at plain sight you're gonna want to get rid of him |
| 13:48.45 | AdmiralPanda | that's what I'm trying to get at |
| 13:48.58 | AdmiralPanda | she doesn't quite get the whole thing with not making your villains accessible until you want them to die |
| 13:49.42 | Monet_ | Barack Obama is driven round in a tinted bulletprrof limo for a reason. |
| 13:50.32 | OluapPlayer | Jo did say a few days ago that she'd remove Xaltsa from the front lines for the next CF sections |
| 13:50.39 | OluapPlayer | So I guess she finally got the idea |
| 13:50.58 | Monet_ | Also that assassination attempt was largely inspired by how I was playing Hitman at the time. |
| 13:51.26 | AdmiralPanda | if there's one thing I learned from running D&D games, it's only put people in front of the party if you're comfortable with them dying |
| 13:51.42 | AdmiralPanda | so it's good that we're seeing less of Xaltsa |
| 13:52.39 | Monet_ | Hitman may still have some hollywood-esque traits to it (like how all it takes to slip past a guard post is wearing their uniforms) but what it does do right is that killing guards and elaving them in plain sight is -not- a viable assassin strategy. |
| 13:52.57 | OluapPlayer | I've read about DMs commenting on it at 4chan, they often comment you should never leave the campaign's big bad in sight unless it's the final battle or they have a really good excuse to not die, say the party's distracted by a big angry enemy or they're somewhere where attacking someone would be a bad idea |
| 13:53.25 | AdmiralPanda | precisely |
| 13:54.05 | AdmiralPanda | the latter isn't even a guarantee though, some players are just stupid |
| 13:54.44 | OluapPlayer | Say the big bad has a fuckton of guards who'll zerg rush the shit out of you if you do as much as breath in the enemy's direction |
| 13:55.08 | AdmiralPanda | as I said, some people are just stupid :P |
| 13:55.21 | AdmiralPanda | the best way is to just not put them there in the first place, have a lieutenant instead |
| 13:55.21 | OluapPlayer | Luckily I already worked this out for when I DM |
| 13:56.20 | OluapPlayer | Among various other things I'm quite eager to try |
| 13:56.45 | AdmiralPanda | we could always set up a one-off |
| 13:57.09 | Monet_ | This might be where films and video games differ from freeform RP. |
| 13:57.35 | OluapPlayer | I've not put much detail in my ideas yet |
| 13:58.20 | Monet_ | If a bad guy is standing in front of you before the climax he's either going to stay in a cutscene or something such as plot prevents the protagnsits from jsut offing him/her then and there |
| 13:59.02 | OluapPlayer | I've also been getting ideas for weapons hur |
| 13:59.23 | Monet_ | That something can be as logical as a forcefield or bullet-proof glass, or a plot-hole like "they didnd't think of doing it" |

| 13:59.51 | OluapPlayer | I feel like I'm gonna end up spoiling everyone and giving you all OP weapons which'll make combat trivial |
| 13:59.51 | AdmiralPanda | we're discussing why Xaltsa isn't dead yet, and various tropes that stop the villain from dying prematurely |
| 13:59.58 | OluapPlayer | As long as it's still fun who cares hur |
| 14:00.28 | AdmiralPanda | well just don't make it too unfun |
| 14:00.35 | AdmiralPanda | cus trivial combat gets old kinda quicj |
| 14:00.50 | Monet_ | If you end up giving us OP weapons, you can always throw OP mosnters to counter it |
| 14:01.58 | OluapPlayer | it wunt b unfun, ur first enemy will just be an olethrodaemon |
| 14:02.59 | OluapPlayer | Yes, counter OP with OP |
| 14:03.03 | OluapPlayer | good strategy that |

| 14:17.51 | Monet_ | Its interesting how a demon is very different fro ma daemon. |
| 14:18.09 | OluapPlayer | There's demons, daemons and devils |
| 14:19.17 | Monet_ | Classical daemons are very different from both demons and devils, funnily enough |
| 14:20.25 | OluapPlayer | Demons corrupt, devils make deals and daemons destroy |
| 14:20.30 | OluapPlayer | That's how it goes in D&D iirc |
| 14:20.56 | Monet_ | Classical daemons are usually benevolent. |

| 14:21.53 | drom | sup |
| 14:21.57 | Monet_ | Hi |
| 14:22.48 | drom | Vanquish is the most underrated badass game ever. |
| 14:22.55 | Monet_ | I think the twist relates to, surprise surprise, Christianity. |
| 14:23.28 | Hachiman | drom: I'm glad somebody else agrees |
| 14:23.37 | Monet_ | SOmething about how some women were diagnosedd by doctors as being toyed with by "malignant" spirits. |
| 14:23.41 | OluapPlayer | Daemons want to bring the End Times and destroy everything ever, which means devils and demons would have nothing to feed on |
| 14:23.54 | OluapPlayer | So devils and demons are not quite fond of daemons |
| 14:24.30 | Monet_ | I'm mentioning this because most daemons in Warhammer are malignant. |
| 14:24.47 | OluapPlayer | All daemons are malignant in D&D |
| 14:25.12 | Monet_ | Originally daemon or "daimon" is Greek for "divine spirit" |
| 14:25.38 | Hachiman | "Daemon" in Warhammer 40k is just a Gothic term |
| 14:26.12 | Monet_ | Perhaps. |
| 14:26.12 | OluapPlayer | When I get to be the DM in D&D, daemons will be the main antagonists |
| 14:27.36 | Monet_ | Yeah, msut be, just has how Rhinos run on "promethium" |
| 14:28.27 | Monet_ | Real promethium is solid at room temperature and is radioactive |
| 14:29.08 | Monet_ | Its most often found in uranium ore. |
| 14:29.57 | Monet_ | usually pitchblende. So unless all 40K veicles use nuclear material for propulsion ,real and 40k promethium is different |
| 14:30.21 | Monet_ | In which case I can accept that daemons in 40K are not the same daemons as classical mythology |
| 14:32.02 | Monet_ | In fact yeah, "demon" comes from "demon" because any supernatural being in Abrahamic myth is usually either aligned with God (angels, cherubs, saints) and are thus always benign, or they're not and likely servants of satan. |
| 14:32.11 | Monet_ | demon comes from daemon* |

| 14:50.11 | Monet_ | Yeah you have a point. |
| 14:50.31 | CountImperios2 | For example |
| 14:51.03 | CountImperios2 | "Immolate" originally meant (in Latin) "to cover in wheat" |
| 14:51.08 | Monet_ | For exampel just now I feel like I may have gotten on Oluap's nerves saying that until Warhammer, "dAemons" aren't normally evil. |
| 14:51.21 | OluapPlayer | Not really no |
| 14:51.33 | CountImperios2 | In-mola-re |
| 14:51.45 | CountImperios2 | Mola = like English "mill" |

| 14:53.04 | CountImperios2 | Hi Tek |
| 14:53.40 | Monet_ | An exampel of this application: Aliens would probably use a word other than "phyrric" to mean "victory but at a price that makes it not worth it" |
| 14:53.58 | CountImperios2 | Then it came to mean "to sacrifice by burning" and from this point we get to the modern meaning of this word |
| 14:54.35 | OluapPlayer | nerdos |

| 15:15.55 | CountImperios | What is going on? |
| 15:15.59 | Ghel | Hello. |
| 15:16.19 | OluapPlayer | I'm saying that boobs on non-mammals are a sin and you should feel bad if you do it |
| 15:16.33 | Hachiman_ | Hue |
| 15:16.41 | TekDroid | CountImperios: They're making jokes about the Booby (the bird) |
| 15:17.03 | Hachiman_ | It's strange because monkeys/primates don't have boobs |
| 15:17.16 | Hachiman_ | Humans are the only species that actually have breasts as we can recognize them |
| 15:17.54 | Hachiman_ | Also screw it I'll just give the Cyrodnei size differentiation as sexual dimorphism hur |
| 15:18.04 | Hachiman_ | That's how it worked for T-rexes |
| 15:18.52 | CountImperios | They do when nursing |
| 15:19.16 | Hachiman_ | They do? |
| 15:19.20 | CountImperios | Yes |
| 15:19.27 | CountImperios | Bats do, too |
| 15:20.11 | Hachiman_ | But |
| 15:20.14 | Hachiman_ | Bats are terrifying |
| 15:21.22 | CountImperios | Doesn't stop them from having boobs hur |
| 15:23.21 | Hachiman_ | Makes me wonder if Zazane having boobs is weird |
| 15:23.50 | OluapPlayer | It is since they're draconic but it's got to the point removing them would be weirder |
| 15:24.05 | Hachiman_ | butbut synapsids |
| 15:24.12 | OluapPlayer | but dragons |
| 15:25.05 | OluapPlayer | But i'm fine with Dolgan and Kalcedia having boobs hur |

| 15:26.25 | OluapPlayer | Now go finish paegs |
| 15:28.00 | Hachiman_ | I wonder if it makes more sense for Cyros to be green rather than orange cuz forest/jungle environments |
| 15:28.12 | AdmiralPanda | almost certainly |
| 15:28.13 | OluapPlayer | Not every plant is green |
| 15:28.31 | OluapPlayer | Their homeworld's vegetation could've been orange |
| 15:28.33 | AdmiralPanda | but most are, and for good reason |
| 15:28.46 | Hachiman_ | The colour green promotes photosynthesis though, which is why a majority of plants are green |
| 15:29.11 | TekDroid | ^ |
| 15:29.18 | OluapPlayer | Okay okay fine |
| 15:29.45 | Hachiman_ | Perhaps like humans there are different coloured Cyrodnei; I did intend for them to be variable |

| 15:53.43 | AdmiralPanda | if he does, he's an expert at hiding it |
| 15:54.04 | CountImperios | I've been thinking of that pet cheetah Javina was supposed to have |
| 15:54.11 | CountImperios | How could I call it/him/her? |
| 15:54.12 | Monet_ | He just told Hel'Bre'K Ce'So'Va, master of combat and in some cases msitaken for a god of WAR he doesn't even know what power is. |
| 15:54.23 | AdmiralPanda | ooh I haven't seen this one |
| 15:54.46 | AdmiralPanda | wow |
| 15:54.50 | AdmiralPanda | that one doesn't even deserve a response |

| 15:55.23 | AdmiralPanda | Hel' - Bitch please, do you even know what my name means? |
| 15:56.05 | Monet_ | I can no longer find anything serious in Xaltsa |
| 15:56.22 | Monet_ | His reputation has been buries within the core of a quark star. |
| 15:57.23 | CountImperios | Xaltsa is too campy for my likimg |
| 15:57.27 | CountImperios | And too hammy |
| 15:57.46 | AdmiralPanda | the campy I'm ok with, it's just he's way too stupid to have been good for anything |
| 15:57.56 | AdmiralPanda | well, he might have been an ok performer |
| 15:58.31 | Monet_ | We have no real idea because every performance he's made he's brainwashed his audience to applaud it. |
| 15:58.31 | AdmiralPanda | put simply, he's the essence of Chaotic Stupid |
| 15:59.42 | Monet_ | By the lokos of things he could perform a solo rendition of Swan Lake where he throws his own shit at the audience and he'd still get a roaring applause. |
| 16:00.11 | Hachiman_ | To be fair I'd applaud that |
| 16:00.29 | AdmiralPanda | he needs a supporting cast of monkeys |
| 16:00.34 | AdmiralPanda | then it'd be a real show |
| 16:01.21 | Monet_ | Wait I forgot Xaltsa's a bomb nut |
| 16:01.33 | Monet_ | "EXPLODING SHIT FOR EVERYONE" |
| 16:03.41 | Monet_ | Xaltsa kinda killed USO's threat level for me. |
| 16:03.59 | Monet_ | Not threat level sorry |

| 16:22.30 | Technobliterator | it was not a massive long rant for basically no reason |
| 16:22.40 | AdmiralPanda | I seem to recall using the exact words "fucking retard" to describe Xaltsa |
| 16:22.46 | AdmiralPanda | not really chipping in |

| 16:24.53 | Technobliterator | I don't even know how to answer it anymore. I have a billion times. |

| 16:26.37 | Monet_ | There's two kinds of hate: "Love to hate" and "Burn them in a tar pit" hate |
| 16:27.25 | Monet_ | Love to hate is that special niche of villainy where you want them to fail and yet they are somehow endearing. |
| 16:28.04 | Monet_ | http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/LoveToHate right here |
| 16:28.44 | Technobliterator | I have made up my mind |
| 16:28.47 | Technobliterator | fiction cancelled |
| 16:29.11 | AdmiralPanda | your call to make |
| 16:29.47 | Monet_ | Is this because people hate Xaltsa? |
| 16:31.12 | Monet_ | In fact...We weren't even talking behind your back. You could have come in and discussed at any time we were talking |
| 16:31.36 | Technobliterator | I was never updating the damn thing anyway, no one was interested, and I had no idea what I was going to do with it |
| 16:32.20 | AdmiralPanda | not that it means anything now, but I was |
| 16:32.46 | Technobliterator | you didn't enjoy any of the rps and frequently found me frustrating in them |
| 16:32.58 | Technobliterator | you would have lost interest over time, as would everyone else |
| 16:33.11 | AdmiralPanda | I was only in two of them |
| 16:33.28 | AdmiralPanda | the first one we weren't thinking on the same page, and the second one we come from different RP backgrounds |
| 16:33.43 | AdmiralPanda | so of course there were going to be birthing pains, but that didn't mean things weren't going to improve later on |
| 16:34.02 | AdmiralPanda | I'd only just started to develop a character I'd been sitting on for ages, I was looking forward to where it was going |
| 16:34.27 | Technobliterator | I can't do it, I'm a giant bitch to everyone that is only a detriment, this is not right for me anymore |

| 18:52.15 | Hachiman_ | As cool as katanas are, they're laughable when faced with stuff like claymores and zweihanders |
| 18:52.21 | OluapPlayer | >hating on grorious nippon steel folded a gorillon times |
| 18:52.24 | OluapPlayer | shiggy diggy |
| 18:52.31 | Hachiman_ | I still laugh at gorillon |
| 18:52.38 | DrodoEmpire | Katanas are very overrated weapons; They're good, but far from the best |
| 18:52.55 | DrodoEmpire | European longswords are better designed and made from better steel. :P |
| 18:53.05 | AdmiralPanda | also not true |
| 18:53.11 | DrodoEmpire | Better designed. |
| 18:53.15 | DrodoEmpire | For certain. |
| 18:53.16 | AdmiralPanda | weapons were designed to fight armour, not to fight weapons |
| 18:53.24 | AdmiralPanda | katanas were designed to slash through layered silk |

| 18:53.31 | OluapPlayer | You nerdos can keep your weapon discussion while I brb hur |
| 18:53.32 | AdmiralPanda | which they do very, very well |
| 18:53.32 | OluapPlayer | spu |
| 18:53.41 | Monet_ | DrodoEmpire: Katanas are made in a land where iron is limited so I'd hardly call that superior |
| 18:53.45 | AdmiralPanda | most european swords were designed for thrusting |
| 18:54.08 | AdmiralPanda | and the forging techniques used in the better swords in both regions made the quality of the initial steel a moot point |
| 18:54.11 | DrodoEmpire | Longswords have the ability to be used in many different ways, and with a generous crossguard have good at defending against blades |
| 18:54.32 | DrodoEmpire | Longswords take impact better; They flex more. |
| 18:54.37 | AdmiralPanda | a katana didn't need to be used in many different ways |
| 18:54.52 | DrodoEmpire | I'm talking pound for pound, not about the techniques |
| 18:54.58 | DrodoEmpire | I like versitility |
| 18:55.07 | AdmiralPanda | and you're also comparing weapons to weapons, which doesn't work |
| 18:55.21 | Xho | So we're talking about weapons are we |
| 18:55.23 | AdmiralPanda | you need to compare a weapon to the armour it was facing, that's the only way to assess how good a weapon was |
| 18:55.33 | DrodoEmpire | And for that the Longsword has it; It has the ability to be used as a sword, mace, etc. |
| 18:55.34 | Xho | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsar_Bomba I like this |
| 18:55.40 | Hachiman_ | hue |
| 18:56.00 | AdmiralPanda | a katana could slash through layered silk and lamellar easily, while a longsword could be used to hew and thrust, which suited the armours it face |
| 18:56.16 | AdmiralPanda | faced,* therefore they are both well-designed weapons suited to their battlefields |
| 18:56.28 | Xho | In other news, Tom Cruise is 52 today |
| 18:56.35 | Hachiman_ | You're joking |
| 18:56.37 | Xho | Nope |
| 18:56.42 | Hachiman_ | Geezush |
| 18:56.42 | AdmiralPanda | yeah, he's old as hell |
| 18:56.45 | AdmiralPanda | doesn't look like it |
| 18:56.51 | AdmiralPanda | but he is |
| 18:56.58 | Hachiman_ | Reminds me of Will Smith hur |
| 18:57.03 | DrodoEmpire | Yes, but I still dislike the fact that the Katana has very little crossguard. :P Can I not discuss weapon designs, now? |
| 18:57.04 | AdmiralPanda | black don't crack tho |
| 18:57.36 | Hachiman_ | But |
| 18:57.37 | AdmiralPanda | DrodoEmpire: it does however have more of a guard around the sides of the hand, which was more important for a katana vs katana duel |
| 18:57.38 | Hachiman_ | Will Smith |
| 18:57.56 | AdmiralPanda | that's what I mean, black people always seem to look younger than they are |
| 18:58.28 | Monet_ | Hollywood sees Katanas as cool because they're exotic, that's my opinion. |
| 18:58.32 | AdmiralPanda | ^ |
| 18:58.49 | AdmiralPanda | and you have weaboo katana cultists who don't actually care about how a weapon works :P |
| 18:58.52 | Hachiman_ | Also, I'd like to point out that Hollywood invented its own version of the ninja sword |
| 18:58.59 | Monet_ | A big chunk of the whole idea of "rule of cool" is that its not normal. |
| 18:59.04 | Xho | Katanas were forged to suit feudal Japanese combat arts and then you have Longswords to deal with European combat arts |
| 18:59.06 | AdmiralPanda | ^^ |
| 18:59.08 | Monet_ | not something normal* |
| 18:59.20 | Xho | They both served a purpose for two entirely different cultures |
| 18:59.27 | AdmiralPanda | precisely |
| 18:59.35 | AdmiralPanda | they fought different armours and with different styles |
| 18:59.47 | AdmiralPanda | that's why you have to compare them to the battlefields of their time, rather than directly to each other |
| 19:00.37 | Monet_ | I remember Bruce Willis used a katana in Pulp Fiction to stab a guy right in the back, is it me or wouldn't that work very well? |
| 19:00.41 | Xho | Hachiman_: What if I told you that Jeff Bridges is only 12 years older than Tom Cruise |
| 19:00.46 | Hachiman_ | Geezush |
| 19:00.53 | DrodoEmpire | A katana was curved-ish; But yeah it would work |
| 19:01.06 | OluapPlayer | ya got nothing on Dark Souls |
| 19:01.12 | OluapPlayer | You can backstab people with whips |
| 19:01.13 | AdmiralPanda | Monet_:Katanas are not stabbing weapons |
| 19:01.14 | Hachiman_ | Does anybody remember that double-sided lightsaber from the first Star Wars prequel? Or the double-bladed staff from After Earth that Will Smith used in the beginning? What are those weapons called? |
| 19:01.19 | DrodoEmpire | There have been weapons far more curved than a katana that could stab |
| 19:01.21 | AdmiralPanda | double swords :P |
| 19:01.29 | Monet_ | AdmiralPanda: The curve says it all really |
| 19:01.33 | Xho | Double bladed lightsaber I guess hue |
| 19:01.36 | AdmiralPanda | DrodoEmpire: This is true, but curved weapons should not stab |
| 19:01.51 | DrodoEmpire | Well yeah, its not recommended obviously. |
| 19:01.55 | DrodoEmpire | But its possible |
| 19:01.57 | AdmiralPanda | for the simple fact that it's curved, meaning the point is not in alignment |
| 19:02.04 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah, I know. :P |
| 19:02.40 | AdmiralPanda | Hachiman_: They literally are just called double swords or double bladed swords |
| 19:02.41 | OluapPlayer | Morningstar is best weapon, especially if imbued with angel magic |
| 19:02.59 | DrodoEmpire | Oluap: Its a clumsy, scary weapon for sure. :P |
| 19:03.07 | Xho | My favourite weapon is a Katar |

| 19:04.17 | Monet_ | Hi |
| 19:04.18 | DrodoEmpire | Oluap: I do somewhat understand, but I'm just making a point that in real life that flails in general where not the most practical weapons. |
| 19:04.21 | CountImperios | Hi |
| 19:04.31 | CountImperios | DrodoEmpire: RULE OF COOL. |
| 19:04.37 | AdmiralPanda | DrodoEmpire: They were perfectly practical against the knights they were created to fight |
| 19:04.46 | CountImperios | Monet_: I just realised something |
| 19:04.58 | AdmiralPanda | you smash a guy in the shoulder, you mess up his entire arm just by misaligning the plates |
| 19:05.12 | DrodoEmpire | True; I just mean they take more practice and could very easily hurt the user if improperly used |
| 19:05.21 | CountImperios | Since the modern Russian communists have reconciled with the church |
| 19:05.25 | AdmiralPanda | that's the same with a lot of weapons though |
| 19:06.03 | DrodoEmpire | Its much easier to kill yourself by accident with a flail then with a sword; Very possible for both but a flail has more risk. This is what I mean. |
| 19:06.20 | AdmiralPanda | I know |
| 19:06.30 | AdmiralPanda | but people using a flail started with a fixed mace |
| 19:06.45 | CountImperios | The ONLY thing the modern Russian communists and the American Republicans actually disagree on is economics |
| 19:06.51 | AdmiralPanda | so they usually had the training and practice needed to not screw up spectacularly before they started fighting |
| 19:07.07 | DrodoEmpire | I'll just stop. Apparently I'm making myself an idiot. :L |
| 19:07.12 | DrodoEmpire | Not to act immature |
| 19:07.18 | DrodoEmpire | *myself look like |
| 19:07.24 | AdmiralPanda | you're not, you just have an incomplete understanding of weaponry |
| 19:07.27 | CountImperios | The modern Russian Communist Party is all for traditions and the old ways, family values et cetera et cetera |
| 19:07.33 | CountImperios | Isn't it ironic? |

| 19:21.19 | Monet_ | I think "humans dum" just reached its climax with these elves |
| 19:21.34 | OluapPlayer | I don't understand your issue with them |
| 19:21.39 | CountImperios | There should be an ethnic slur for humans that elves use |
| 19:21.42 | Xho | Ailasi humans I guess |
| 19:21.47 | CountImperios | 'HUMASH' |
| 19:22.01 | Monet_ | OluapPlayer: My issue is they may as well be pretty-looking humans |
| 19:22.28 | Xho | CountImperios: "Spineless frilly stupid squishy people" |
| 19:22.45 | OluapPlayer | But they're not humans, they don't have the same origin, appearance or abilities of humans |
| 19:22.59 | AdmiralPanda | then… what makes them similar to humans? |
| 19:23.07 | Xho | That they can't use magic I guess |
| 19:23.09 | Xho | Or |
| 19:23.12 | Xho | Not natively powerful with magic |
| 19:23.21 | OluapPlayer | They can use magic |
| 19:23.27 | Xho | Or they just look normal hir |
| 19:23.28 | Xho | *hur |
| 19:23.33 | CountImperios | Well personally |
| 19:23.47 | CountImperios | I liked SporeWiki elves being very distinct from humans |
| 19:24.06 | CountImperios | Skin colour, body type, et cetera et cetera |
| 19:24.19 | Monet_ | So we're just throwing away the idea that humans are descended from elves. Okay. Fine. |

| 19:24.37 | OluapPlayer | I'll delete them if it bothers you so much |

| 19:44.07 | AdmiralPanda | if I had a superpower it would be the ability to make puppies manifest wherever I want |
| 19:45.24 | TekDroid | AdmiralPanda: That reminds me of this. http://www.smbc-comics.com/?id=499 |
| 19:46.31 | AdmiralPanda | That is precisely where I got it from |
| 19:46.41 | Hachiman_ | Where the hell did the Adsiduus go |
| 19:46.42 | TekDroid | Oh. XD |
| 19:46.55 | AdmiralPanda | Hachiman_: You missed that entire thing didn't you |
| 19:47.14 | Hachiman_ | I was at dinner |
| 19:47.32 | AdmiralPanda | scroll up a bit |
| 19:47.38 | Hachiman_ | Wow what the fuck |
| 19:47.50 | Hachiman_ | OluapPlayer: Stop being a dum and undo those deletes |
| 19:47.58 | OluapPlayer | Stop talking about this |
| 19:48.22 | Hachiman_ | But |
| 19:49.37 | Zmr56 | Well that really was a stupid argument |
| 19:50.18 | Hachiman_ | That wasn't even an argument, it seemed more like fucking bullying |
| 19:51.14 | Zmr56 | I liked those elves anyway |
| 19:51.48 | Hachiman_ | Considering that I helped Oluap in setting them up and giving them a backstory |
| 19:52.00 | Hachiman_ | I am seriously fucking outraged |
| 19:52.15 | AdmiralPanda | hugs Hachiman_ to try to calm him down a little |
| 19:52.28 | Zmr56 | They were a nice change from the regular kind of elves |
| 19:52.49 | Hachiman_ | What happened was bullying for the most pettiest of reasons |
| 19:52.50 | Xho | It's not worth deleting something over |
| 19:53.10 | Xho | It's like listening to one critic among ten thousand devotees |
| 19:54.14 | Hachiman_ | I'm not mad because something I put effort into was shunned and deleted, I'm pissed off because something Oluap put his time and effort into got deleted because people wanted to be a fucking critic |
| 19:54.34 | Hachiman_ | He had good intentions and what happens? "Don't like them ew get rid of them" |
| 19:54.38 | AdmiralPanda | settle down mate, don't get things out of hand |
| 19:55.04 | Xho | I'd just say reinstate it |
| 19:55.15 | Xho | If I deleted my fiction for every time someone didn't like it I'd have no fiction |
| 19:55.28 | AdmiralPanda | ^ same |
| 19:55.38 | Hachiman_ | "Too similar to humans" Well guess what we have fucking so many human fictions in the main fictionverse |
| 19:56.06 | Hachiman_ | And how many empires in the fictionverse/Fantasyverse are analogous to human nations |
| 19:56.30 | Xho | Everyone hur |
| 19:56.41 | Xho | I think it's impossible to create something truly alien |
| 19:56.56 | Xho | It's not something the human mind is able to totally accomplish |
| 19:57.18 | Hachiman_ | "I liked elves when they weren't similar to humans" Well then give your fucking elves eight legs and six pairs of eyes |
| 19:57.30 | Xho | Spider humans |
| 19:57.33 | Xho | Can we not |
| 19:57.36 | Xho | Can we not plz |
| 19:57.54 | Hachiman_ | Honestly what happened here was bullshit and I'm not going to stand for what happened because this is honestly disgusting |
| 19:58.18 | Xho | Put it on a forum page then |
| 19:58.28 | Hachiman_ | Right |
| 19:58.37 | Xho | OluapPlayer: Bickering & nitpicking is immature, rise above it and don't listen |
| 19:59.35 | Wormy_away | I don't agree. While it is true we can't make meaningful science fiction out of something without any human element, every new mode of thinking is new. It is simply that we can't predict future knowledge. Physicists examine the non-human condition, psychonauts go into deep meditation and take drugs and experience altered states beyond words |
| 20:00.14 | Wormy_away | poure mathematics is totally alien to physical reality in many cases |
| 20:00.15 | Hachiman_ | Instead of helping, Monet and Imp just outright shunned Oluap and pretty much just labelled it as "pointless", which is something that no user here should ever do to another user |
| 20:00.56 | Wormy_away | who knows what future humans would know it would certainly be alien to anything we can experience or be aware of now |
| 20:01.56 | Xho | Suppose so |
| 20:02.26 | AdmiralPanda | and we can certainly create creatures with mindsets that humans wouldn't readily adopt, the Fordanta among htem |
| 20:02.33 | Xho | But imagine if there was something so alien there is no way in a mortal or an immortal's mind it could be conceived |
| 20:02.49 | Xho | I'm more on about aliens on the metaphysically improbable scale |
| 20:02.50 | AdmiralPanda | because everyone knows it's against human nature to completely give yourself up to the whole with no thought of self |
| 20:03.20 | AdmiralPanda | Xho: Actually you reminded me of one interesting thing in Skyrim, that a mortal cannot truly comprehend immortality, and vice versa |
| 20:03.36 | AdmiralPanda | which is why the Dragonrend shout works |
| 20:03.42 | Wormy_away | It amazes me that this "chemical scum" (Stephen Hawking), can dream of distant quasars. The physics of a quasar jet is utterly alien to anything we can experience, but none-the-less, our brains contain an explanatory model |
| 20:04.07 | Xho | I keep on trying to do that with the Xhodocto; while I've gotten closer there's no way I could make them incomprehensibly alien and explain them at the same time |
| 20:04.25 | AdmiralPanda | that's because the two are exclusive |
| 20:04.27 | Wormy_away | It depends how out of context this level of unknowableness is |
| 20:04.36 | AdmiralPanda | if you can explain something, then by definition it's not incomprehensible :P |
| 20:05.15 | Xho | Well I have said that the Xhodocto aren't really 'Xhodocto' in a sense, more like masks/agents of beings that I can't explain in any manner |
| 20:05.26 | Xho | A form of interaction almost |
| 20:05.59 | Wormy_away | I'm sure there is infinitely more we don't know but I don't think it is in the scope of any philosophy to erect barriers of what we can know |
| 20:06.45 | Xho | It isn't, but at the same time there's no such thing as a freedom to what we can know to me |
| 20:06.51 | Xho | Meaning of life falls into that category |
| 20:06.53 | Wormy_away | So the Xhodocto can be as arbitrarily far as you want them to be. |
| 20:08.29 | Wormy_away | Philosophies that try to close explanation or say that explanation is meaningless are generally bad ones, since they blight progress of knowledge in the first place. Empiricism for example, in the 19th century, some scientists would reject anything they couldn't see. Ernst Mach rejected Special Relativity and atoms |
| 20:10.25 | Wormy_away | Meaning is an interesting one |
| 20:12.26 | Wormy_away | I'm reading atm (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/G%C3%B6del,_Escher,_Bach) about "implicit meanings" in DNA. Is DNA just a random string of "button pushers", or is the information somehow deeper. By that, for example, scientists warn the small pox virus could be recreated |
| 20:12.52 | Wormy_away | If you threw a chunk of DNA in a star, it is certainbly out of context |
| 20:13.05 | Wormy_away | But it is in context, in environments that produce knowledge |
| 20:13.20 | Zmr56 | http://i.imgur.com/YtpiRjU.jpg Battle of Arse |
| 20:13.24 | Wormy_away | Either the cell, or the critical reasoning abilities of intelligent agents |
| 20:14.06 | AdmiralPanda | Zmr56: Oh my |
| 20:14.31 | AdmiralPanda | that just reminded me of the Battle of Shitscreek |
| 20:14.44 | Wormy_away | Maybe there are things totally out of context, for example, alien abstractions (say, aliens livining in fluid using different mathematics intuitive to them). But in terms of physics, there will be commonalities. |
| 20:15.01 | Wormy_away | and isomorphisms |
| 20:15.03 | AdmiralPanda | it was an observation exercise we once did in Cadets, involving trying to spot people crossing a dry riverbed that had been lovingly named Shit's Creek |

| 20:25.58 | Wormy_away | Hm, I do wonder if "ultimate reality" will forever be beyond our reach |
| 20:26.47 | Wormy_away | Either reality is infinitely layered or we just can't infallibly know it down to every detail. A bit like incompleteness in mathematics |

| 20:35.20 | Wormy | No crown, no king |
| 20:35.41 | AdmiralPanda | fun fact, apparently Aquaman is strong enough to punch Superman to the ground |
| 20:35.51 | AdmiralPanda | clearly, bad writing is what makes him Suckaman |
| 20:36.34 | Hachiman_ | Wait really? |
| 20:37.16 | OluapPlayer | http://www.mypokecard.com/en/Gallery/my/galery/h5266j8kbiTh.jpg |
| 20:37.29 | AdmiralPanda | yeah, there's a whole bunch of things he's capable of that never get much showing |

| 20:38.28 | OluapPlayer | http://i.imgur.com/cLimkmO.jpg have a lizard |
| 20:39.27 | Wormy | Robin Hood lizard |
| 20:39.45 | AdmiralPanda | he also once unleashed a telepathic barrage so powerful his enemy killed himself to end it |
| 20:40.17 | Hachiman_ | But in the end he still sits at the bottom of the sea talking to fish |
| 20:40.29 | AdmiralPanda | not as much as you'd think |
| 20:40.43 | Wormy | not bad either |
| 20:40.50 | AdmiralPanda | there are as many works where he's King of Atlantis as there are where he just talks to fish |
| 20:41.12 | Wormy | You should agree that sealife makes better company than fifthly humans |
| 20:42.15 | AdmiralPanda | oh, and he fights the setting's equivalent of Cthulhu every year at exactly teh same time |
| 20:42.15 | AdmiralPanda | and wins |
| 20:42.47 | Hachiman_ | Which character is this? |
| 20:42.58 | OluapPlayer | http://static.naamapalmu.com/files/iy/big/nzfrp2ro.gif |
| 20:43.37 | AdmiralPanda | Aquaman |
| 20:43.50 | AdmiralPanda | apparently he has regular bouts with an inter dimensional demon |
| 20:44.10 | Angrybirds | We have to remember that the Gigaquadrantic Conflicts will also see the fall of empires: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Ulanian_Revolution |
| 20:44.24 | Hachiman_ | No I meant which demon is this |
| 20:46.10 | OluapPlayer | my head hurts |
| 20:46.17 | OluapPlayer | Thankfully I don't have college tomorrow |
| 20:46.32 | AdmiralPanda | From what I understand they're called the "Night Gods" |
| 20:46.39 | AdmiralPanda | in other words a Cthulhu expy |
| 20:50.18 | Zmr56 | Hmm, I think Mardvaeli might give the French Andromedans assistance in le Revolution. |
| 20:51.26 | Angrybirds | French Andromeda is probably going to just seize a wormhole because it's up for grabs. |
| 20:51.42 | Zmr56 | And I've replaced the old colonial flag. The green looked horrible and I decided to make it look more like traditional colonial flags, |
| 20:51.52 | Zmr56 | http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140703205051/spore/images/0/07/Mardvaeli_Flag_Quadrants.png |
| 20:53.19 | Angrybirds | Zmr56 : I wasn't going to say anything about the green, but that looks a lot better. |
| 20:53.54 | Angrybirds | The thick black and white outline of the Mardvaeli flag looks a little weird, though, and the star's border is a bit off. |
| 20:54.05 | Angrybirds | But the design and colors are really nice. |
| 20:54.17 | Angrybirds | Reminds me of Australia's flag somewhat. |
| 20:55.20 | Zmr56 | Now to do the same thing with Mirus |
| 20:57.55 | drom | Down under region of Mardaevli. |
| 20:59.18 | Angrybirds | Zmr, speaking of Mirus: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction%3AFrench_Mirus_Colonies |

| 20:59.54 | Technobliterator | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/SporeWiki:Meet_the_users - for an image to represent you, do you want Miniportraits or other images? |

| 21:01.17 | Zmr56 | Should we do separation by join date and rank? |

| 21:01.33 | Zmr56 | G'day |
| 21:01.50 | Technobliterator | uh, perhaps. But I would say not, that implies there's a clas system when there isn't |
| 21:01.56 | drom | blargh, I changed my mind. Have this open while I mann up in TF2. |
| 21:02.20 | Technobliterator | also, is this for the fictionverse or otherwise? |
| 21:05.01 | OluapPlayer | if you really want to keep that page then it should be multi-purpose |
| 21:05.10 | OluapPlayer | And to answer your question, miniportraits I guess |
| 21:05.36 | Technobliterator | multipurpose? So, I can merge it with the admin page too? |
| 21:06.18 | OluapPlayer | By multi-purpose I meant it should include the whole of the wiki, not just the fictionverse |
| 21:06.30 | Technobliterator | right |
| 21:09.57 | TekDroid | For mert the users, why not just alphabetical? |
| 21:10.14 | TekDroid | *meet |
| 21:11.16 | TekDroid | Also maybe update the active/inactive if we want to keep that. |
| 21:13.35 | Technobliterator | I should probably do nothing to it yet, as no one else has given any real opinions |
| 21:13.35 | Technobliterator | other than "I like the table idea" |
| 21:14.27 | TekDroid | Start a forum topic. |
| 21:14.31 | TekDroid | *? |
| 21:19.00 | Hachiman_ | A Roman walks into a bar and asks for a Martinus. “You mean a martini?” the bartender asks. The Roman replies, “If I wanted a double, I would have asked for it!” |
| 21:19.35 | TekDroid | Latin jokes? |
| 21:19.45 | Technobliterator | Because an alphabetical list of users would still be long and cluttered |
| 21:20.02 | Technobliterator | also, the talk page is the place to discuss it, so there's no need for a forum |
| 21:25.49 | Angrybirds | Anyone want to erect an embassy/building on Galactica while I'm at it? http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Planet:Galactica |
| 21:30.05 | Zmr56 | Put a Mardvaeli Quadrants Embassy down there |
| 21:31.06 | Angrybirds | And name it that? |
| 21:31.16 | Zmr56 | Sure |
| 21:31.26 | Angrybirds | Alright. Anything I should know about the building itself? |
