04:05.07 | DrodoEmpire | Hey |
04:05.39 | TekDroid | I found a really wierd independent OPM Qing in EUIV. XD |
04:06.34 | DrodoEmpire | hur |
04:06.47 | DrodoEmpire | Why, is Ming still a thing? |
04:06.51 | DrodoEmpire | What year is it? |
04:07.23 | TekDroid | It happened in either 1455 or 1456, and both Ming and Manchu still exist. XD |
04:07.51 | DrodoEmpire | Ah |
04:07.54 | DrodoEmpire | Makes sense then |
04:08.07 | DrodoEmpire | Seeing as Ming tend to fall apart after a little while |
04:08.08 | TekDroid | June 26, 1456 I assume from the truce date |
04:08.30 | DrodoEmpire | Either completely gone, a rump state, or competeing with several other Chinese dynasties. |
04:08.31 | TekDroid | But Qing doesn't exist, it requires the Manchu to own Beijing. :/ |
04:08.41 | TekDroid | to be formed |
04:08.54 | TekDroid | This is Liaoxi. XD |
04:09.22 | DrodoEmpire | lol |
04:09.38 | TekDroid | Oh... now I see what happened. |
04:09.59 | DrodoEmpire | Hm? |
04:10.42 | TekDroid | Ming conquered a Manchu province, got nationalist rebels, and Qing is the nation for the Manchu culture so when it declared independence it became that. |
04:11.15 | DrodoEmpire | Okay. |
04:11.47 | TekDroid | So basically rebels did it. :P |
04:14.20 | DrodoEmpire | Right. |
04:16.52 | TekDroid | Though jumping forward to 1504 the Zhou own half of China. XD |
04:17.08 | DrodoEmpire | lol |
04:17.59 | TekDroid | I think Ming lost the Peasant War event, or whatever it's called. Tibet is bigger than the Ming. XD |
04:42.20 | Angrybirds | DrodoEmpire TekDroid Tybusen Stick around, I want to run something by you. |
04:43.39 | DrodoEmpire | Hm? |
04:47.06 | Angrybirds | TekDroid : What tool in gimp did you use for your 3D Farengeto flag effects? |
04:49.08 | TekDroid | That? |
04:49.32 | TekDroid | Let me check. |
04:52.22 | Angrybirds | What would you guys think of this as a symbol for a possible GITO alliance? http://i.imgur.com/s95gOjk.jpg |
04:53.15 | TekDroid | Angrybirds: I used Gradient Bevel then Colorized or increased brightness for the sections |
04:54.20 | TekDroid | That's interesting, nice metal effects. Might want to ditch the branding from your background. :P |
04:54.34 | Angrybirds | I'm aware >.< |
04:55.39 | TekDroid | steals the file and starts experimenting |
04:56.31 | TekDroid | Damn, this gave me a white background. |
05:16.45 | TekDroid | Angrybirds: http://i.imgur.com/XmL8f2a.png |
05:16.57 | TekDroid | This is with the effect used on the Farengeto flag |
05:17.57 | Angrybirds | You might want to make them a bit more obvious. |
05:18.42 | TekDroid | Alright. Accidentally overwrote the original layers, so give me a moment. XD |
05:25.50 | TekDroid | better? http://i.imgur.com/9WZ7SDy.png |
05:26.08 | TekDroid | And you said you had something for us? |
05:26.26 | TekDroid | Or was the image it? |

11:43.00 | ImpyDroid | Half of the comments are Russian players complaining about the fact that the campaign is in English hur |
11:43.08 | ImpyDroid | I made my stuff in Russian I believe |

11:44.30 | ImpyDroid | ...OHGOD |
11:45.11 | ImpyDroid | I looked at the description below and it states your campaign was published in a Russian gaming magazine |
11:45.20 | OluapPlayer | The hell |
11:45.37 | OluapPlayer | it was so bad though |
11:45.39 | OluapPlayer | Why |
11:46.00 | OluapPlayer | Also I'm serious, tell me where the download link is |
11:46.36 | ImpyDroid | I am not sure myself |

11:48.24 | OluapPlayer | For some reason I can't copy the description to put it on google translate |
11:48.39 | OluapPlayer | It's like this site is making every possible effort for me to not be able to see what this campaign is |
11:49.43 | OluapPlayer | Oh ok I got it now |
11:50.29 | OluapPlayer | Yeah this isn't the Murloc prequel, it's something else |
11:51.07 | OluapPlayer | It's a campaign about an undead death knight, iirc, who was betrayed by his crypt lord lieutenant and exiled away |

12:13.17 | OluapPlayer | Warcraft III |
12:13.17 | MOnet_ | Hi |
12:13.32 | MOnet_ | Old memories those |
12:13.50 | OluapPlayer | I was commenting on how I downloaded the game again to see if I can beat it without cheats |
12:13.59 | ImpyDroid | MOnet_: Turns out a Russian magazine published some of Oluap's fanmade WC3 campaigns back in the day |
12:14.15 | MOnet_ | ImpyDroid: Wow |
12:14.25 | OluapPlayer | Probably to mock it |
12:14.53 | OluapPlayer | Everything I made in the Warcraft World Editor was cringe-worthy |
12:15.03 | ImpyDroid | Well Russian magazines often featured mods and patches on their discs before the Internet became widespread |
12:15.22 | ImpyDroid | You haven't seen my stuff hur |
12:15.33 | Monet_ | I remember such "demo disks" |
12:15.44 | Monet_ | My dad has a small library of them |
12:16.22 | ImpyDroid | I made a map with Warhammer 40k Orks throwing firebombs at zerglings and Troll Headhunters |
12:16.37 | OluapPlayer | I actually know where the "fuck off and let me be" thing comes from, it's a reference to various flash animations I used to watch |
12:17.05 | ImpyDroid | Oh and the jungle mobs were Darth Revans |
12:17.23 | OluapPlayer | They featured a character who was a gay hypersexual Kermit-the-Frog head with pubes called the "Pube Muppet" |
12:17.27 | OluapPlayer | "fuck off and let me be" was his catchphrase |
12:17.31 | ImpyDroid | hur |
12:17.54 | ImpyDroid | ...funny because my sis is watching Muppets next to me ATM |
12:18.17 | OluapPlayer | And he spoke in the same text-to-speech voice I used in the Murloc campaign |
12:18.18 | Monet_ | Lol |
12:18.34 | ImpyDroid | hur |
12:18.53 | ImpyDroid | I didn't voice my campaigns thankfully |
12:18.57 | ImpyDroid | My friend did though |
12:19.39 | OluapPlayer | The one level where you go around saving cities from Murloc forces |
12:19.47 | ImpyDroid | I remember playing his campaign: I go through a bare labyrinth made from dirt and then a Dreadlord appears |
12:19.47 | OluapPlayer | Damn, those mayors were major jerkasses |
12:20.09 | OluapPlayer | I have no idea what I was thinking when I made those |
12:20.15 | ImpyDroid | Cue a giant vampiric demon shouting with the voice of a 10 year old |
12:20.18 | ImpyDroid | kid |
12:20.21 | OluapPlayer | olol |
12:20.57 | OluapPlayer | I didn't remember a lot about the campaign so some things actually caught me off-guard |
12:21.35 | OluapPlayer | Apparently I set the world to shake while Krusha Murkiller let out a deep echoing laugh every so often |
12:21.42 | OluapPlayer | Eventually it got annoying hur |
12:22.24 | ImpyDroid | This reminds me of my old campaign |
12:22.55 | ImpyDroid | It featured my WoW character as the protagonist |
12:23.19 | ImpyDroid | Basically you had to find elementals wrecking the earth causing earthshakes etc |
12:23.23 | ImpyDroid | *fight |
12:24.06 | ImpyDroid | Then Cataclysm was announced and I was like "dafuk" |
12:24.13 | OluapPlayer | hur |
12:24.47 | Monet_ | THat's prophetic that |
12:27.38 | ImpyDroid | Though TBH I expected Queen Azshara to be the next expansion's villain myself |
12:30.16 | ImpyDroid | I mean she's a giant elf snake octopus woman |
12:30.29 | ImpyDroid | Best villain, hands on |
12:32.57 | ImpyDroid | Or is it "hands up"? |
12:33.37 | Monet_ | Hands down. |
12:36.45 | ImpyDroid | stoopid idiom-heavy language hur |
12:41.55 | AdmiralPanda | Most of them make sense, at least |
12:42.13 | AdmiralPanda | Hands-down, for example, means you don't have a say in the matter- you don't get to put your hand up to state a point |

15:02.28 | Hachiman | So if I'm not mistaken, the new Jurassic Park movie or whatever is gonna be called "Jurassic World" |
15:02.53 | Monet_ | That's right |
15:03.14 | OluapPlayer | Yes |
15:03.24 | OluapPlayer | That was stated a few months ago |
15:03.40 | Hachiman | This movie had better be good |
15:03.49 | Hachiman | I'm not confident it will be but we never know |
15:04.01 | Monet_ | Well look at the previous films. |

15:04.32 | Hachiman | Well, it can't be anymore worse than III |
15:06.50 | Monet_ | We;ll have to see |
15:08.15 | Wormy | You people look too deeply into games and films. I watch all these sequals/prequals and enjoy them hur. Then again I also enjoy b movies |
15:08.33 | Hachiman | Yeah I'm quite a critical person |
15:08.40 | Wormy | I used to love the entire Jurassic Park franchise as a kid |
15:09.02 | Hachiman | I've just reminded myself of Dino Crisis 3; a game where you're a soldier who has to fight mutant dinosaur clones on a space colony |
15:09.13 | Hachiman | The concept is very cool but the game itself was meh |
15:09.30 | Wormy | Well, gameplay for me does count |
15:09.57 | Wormy | For me bad games - repetitive maps, lack of interesting gameplay |
15:13.02 | Wormy | What I don't like is when movies cop off on the same ideas or aesthetics |
15:14.03 | Wormy | The Ieverything theme in sci-fi films and US MILITARY saves Earth from aliens is just being recycled over and over |
15:14.24 | Wormy | its against what makes a good sci-fi |
15:15.27 | Wormy | Oh well, it makes things like Fallout stand ot - which uses its own timeline and is deiselpunk |

15:36.38 | Zmr56 | Hi there |
15:36.51 | WoodPulp | Hola, Senor |
15:37.11 | Monet_ | Hello |
15:37.18 | Hachiman | You know, as a child I watched a film called 'The BFG', if any of you have ever heard of it. It's about a girl who wakes up one night and gets abducted by a friendly giant old man to see how he catches and spreads dreams, while learning about a bunch of cannibalistic, violnet giants that go out at night to eat children |
15:37.33 | Hachiman | I remember the fi;m giving me nightmares because the cannibal giants were so grotesque |
15:37.36 | Hachiman | *film |
15:37.42 | Zmr56 | I remember the book |
15:39.06 | Zmr56 | If I do recall they put all the cannibalistic giants in a hole at the end |
15:39.11 | WoodPulp | Are they techinically cannibals if they eat humans, seeing as they're not humans? |
15:39.31 | Hachiman | Well, no I guess they're not cannibals then |
15:39.48 | WoodPulp | But still. Disturbing |
15:40.04 | Monet_ | I recall the book goes into detail in the tricks they used |
15:40.04 | WoodPulp | That was based on a Roald Dahl book wasn't it? |
15:40.12 | Hachiman | It was yeah |
15:40.14 | Zmr56 | Aye |
15:40.18 | Hachiman | Eventually the girl and the BFG manage to convince the Queen of the United Kingdom about the cannibalistic giants and their activities and she sends the British military and air force to subdue the giants and place them all into this big pit in London |
15:40.43 | WoodPulp | Ok. You have now convinced me not to read that book |
15:40.49 | WoodPulp | Roald dahl is weird |
15:41.01 | Monet_ | You don't know the half of it |
15:41.18 | Monet_ | Those books were wierd but I myself loved them as a child |
15:41.21 | Hachiman | I think this is why I like Shingeki no Kyojin so much; it gives me so much nostalgia of the giants in the BFG whenever I see the Titans do whatever they do |
15:41.27 | WoodPulp | Has anyone read "The Landlady"? by roald dahl |
15:41.48 | Zmr56 | I never realized how dark his books are, I enjoyed reading them when I was younger |

15:44.46 | WoodPulp | This must look so weird ImpyDroid. We're discussing the literature of Roald Dahl. |

15:45.48 | Hachiman | New guy |
15:46.26 | WoodPulp | I heard Roald Dahl was a fighter pilot in WWII and he got shot down and they had to do surgery where they removed a piece of his femur and he kept it on his desk as a paperweight |
15:46.53 | Zmr56 | Also there's a reference to the BFG in another book of his |

16:11.45 | Zmr56 | Hi |
16:20.10 | Hachiman | I gotta wonder how much bigger Sporewiki races need to eat in order to sustain themselves and how their metabolisms work |
16:21.15 | Technodroid | I think I described Loron metabolism and biology at length at one point (not that many people cared because, well, it's Loron, no one reads Loron fiction for the facts :P) |
16:21.32 | Technodroid | they need to eat a lot though |
16:21.36 | Zmr56 | I make my species roughly around the same size as humans so I guess they eat the same amounts. |
16:23.13 | Technodroid | Loron are always hungry |
16:23.20 | Technodroid | they eat each other for a reason |
16:23.51 | Hachiman | I think it would be viable for Zazane to need to eat quite regularly although I've still yet to come up with a reason as to why they hold a preference for raw materials rather than cooked and prepared ones |
16:24.24 | ImpyDroid | Maybe their organism are better suited for absorbing those chemicald that usually get destroyed once cooked |
16:25.34 | Monet_ | I've indicated that Draconis metabolism is slower than ours. but comparatively they probably eat equal to or slightly more than us |
16:26.41 | ImpyDroid | Radeons are not that large anyway, so I do not imagine their metabolism is that different from ours |
16:26.42 | ImpyDroid | Though it's probably faster |

16:27.16 | Sporeraptor | hi |
16:27.19 | drom | hello |
16:27.28 | ImpyDroid | I had a thought about their eating habits though |
16:27.43 | drom | obligatory entry kitten gif: http://i.imgur.com/MKUW313.gif |
16:28.11 | ImpyDroid | Since Radeons are native to arid environments, I wonder if they don't need to drink like humans do |
16:28.22 | Sporeraptor | Troodontids are far smaller than humans, however I'd guess that they need to eat equally much as they have a quicker metablosim. |
16:28.31 | ImpyDroid | They could recieve all the liquid they need from food |
16:29.18 | Yk239 | like desert animals |
16:30.25 | ImpyDroid | That they kinda are |
16:30.51 | Hachiman | I wonder if the Zazane would need to eat comparitively more than us since they have a variety of biological abilities that seem like they require quite a bit of resource to power, i.e. regeneration of organs and limbs, their consistent requirement for physical activity, maintaining adrenaline in their blood, etc |
16:31.20 | ImpyDroid | Makes sense |
16:31.43 | ImpyDroid | I based the Radeons' appearance on these critters: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/c/c5/Four-toes-jerboa.jpg |

16:34.27 | Yk239 | greetings |
16:34.38 | drom | hello |
16:37.19 | Monet_ | Perhaps Zazane reactions to consuming cooked meat come from some signal by the body that the meat isn't as nutritious as it could have been. |
16:37.40 | Monet_ | Like...an adverse reaction to "junk food" |
16:37.41 | ImpyDroid | So essentially they are allergic to it? |
16:39.07 | Monet_ | Allergies can be both odd and potentially hereditary. |
16:42.08 | dino_ | @Monet: That is true! Many allergies are hereditary |
16:42.36 | dino_ | genetic malfunctions, vulnrabilities or weaknesses often get passed to others |
16:43.09 | ImpyDroid | ^ that is true |
16:43.24 | ImpyDroid | All members of my family but one wear glasses or lenses |
16:43.48 | dino_ | Oh! Interessting |
16:44.30 | drom | All members in my family wear glasses. |
16:44.30 | Yk239 | Hey, off topic question. In early Civ stage is it possible to quickly destroy all remnant tribes so you're the only one on teh continent? |
16:45.00 | drom | Yk239: Yes, but you need a fuck-load of warriors to overrun the cities and their armies. |
16:45.22 | drom | Which is very difficult to pull off. |
16:45.34 | Hachiman | So effectively the Zazane can only eat raw foods because they have a negative and potentially hostile biological reaction to food that isn't sufficiently nutricious? |
16:45.40 | ImpyDroid | Yeah |
16:46.50 | ImpyDroid | Hmmmm |
16:46.59 | ImpyDroid | ...Actuallg nevermind |
16:47.20 | dino_ | yeah! send fighters! |
16:47.36 | drom | Aemonkians can eat anything, but their gastric acid is very acidic. So eating any food containing any kind of bases can be lethal for them. |
16:49.14 | Zmr56 | There should be a section for larger ships like frigates on the Arms Market. |
16:49.50 | Zmr56 | Mardvaeli has some very good frigates for sale |
16:50.17 | Monet_ | ImpyDroid: What is it? |
16:51.47 | Zmr56 | Nevermind, it seems to fall under the starships category |

18:33.17 | Zmr56 | Hi |
18:33.50 | drom | Hey. |
18:33.59 | drom | I'm going to buy some games. |
18:34.38 | drom | I have put Darkwood (Polish horror game in a post-soviet era) and Euro Truck Simluator 2. |
18:34.51 | drom | Is the gold edition of the euro truck worth it? |
18:35.39 | Monet__ | I don't know |
18:38.23 | drom | Hmh. I got a budget limit of 55 euros. My shopping cart is now worth 42-43 euros. Any good game to be recommended? |
18:38.26 | drom | games* |
18:39.56 | drom | I'm willing to overpay a little. |
18:40.41 | Zmr56 | The Only Steam games I have here that I regularly play are Civ V and Dota 2 |
18:40.59 | Zmr56 | But I know you already have Civ V and you might not be into MOBAs |
18:41.19 | drom | I never liked LoL |
18:41.50 | drom | I don't play Dota 2, but it's community amauses me. |
18:42.05 | Technodroid | Final Fantasy VII |
18:42.15 | Technodroid | buy it, it will change your life |
18:42.41 | Technodroid | outdated, sure, but it is one of the best games ever made |
18:42.50 | Technodroid | it's not the best though, the best is MGS3 |
18:43.03 | Monet__ | Let's...not fall into this pit again. |
18:43.14 | Monet__ | Doscussing "who's the best" never ends well |
18:44.04 | Technodroid | but there is no discussion. MGS3 is the undisputed best game and if you disagree I will delete every page on the wiki and leave and ban you all >:) |

18:47.51 | Zmr56 | I don't remember the World Cup of 1028 |
18:49.21 | Monet__ | Zmr56: You mean you don't remember that amazing goal scored by Rolf Andrewsson in the landmark Wessex vs Brittany match? |
18:50.21 | Zmr56 | That final was rubbish and rigged |
18:50.59 | Monet__ | It couldn't have been. |
18:51.37 | Monet__ | The semi-final between Wessex and Venice was so close! |

18:59.02 | Monet__ | Hi |
18:59.06 | Xho | Me |
18:59.10 | drom | Hey |
18:59.22 | Xho | :narcissisticentry: |

19:00.07 | Monet__ | Xho: Started playing GTA V. Trevor Philips really reminds me of Nu |
19:00.26 | Monet__ | Except he lives in a trailer |
19:00.29 | OluapPlayer | spu |
19:00.55 | ImpyDroid | Hi |
19:01.30 | Xho | Monet__: hur |
19:01.56 | Xho | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ltSOidHtxOk I will say again, this is Nu and Dolgan |
19:02.02 | TekDroid | Oh great, looks like there was another plane crash today. |
19:02.47 | TekDroid | An Algerian plane went missing over the Sahara. |
19:03.06 | Xho | TekDroid: Illuminati, I'm calling it |
19:03.59 | Monet__ | Xho: Does that include being in nothing but his undies? |
19:04.08 | Xho | May or may not do |
19:04.11 | Xho | OluapPlayer: u |
19:04.33 | OluapPlayer | Dolgan - ur dreems only u lil shit |
19:04.46 | TekDroid | This year is not helping the "air travel is the safest form of transportation" statistic. |
19:05.02 | ImpyDroid | Xho: Little did we know the Illuminati are actually a group of plane enthusiasts |
19:05.15 | Xho | Nu - lets not turn dis rape into a murder now dear |
19:06.11 | OluapPlayer | And then Dolgan murders Nu |
19:06.18 | Xho | Nu - immortal remember |
19:06.29 | OluapPlayer | Nu lets her do it because it's Dolgan hur |
19:06.49 | Xho | Nu - i only want u for ur body ur personality is dum |
19:07.34 | ImpyDroid | Nu reminds me of Finland from Scandinavia and the World |
19:07.47 | Xho | Then later do we know that Nu has scores of corpses in his house of formerly attractive women |
19:07.54 | ImpyDroid | Violent, psychotic, and in love with a big-breasted dominatrix girl |
19:07.58 | Xho | Which would be messed up |
19:08.06 | Xho | Nu isn't in love with her no |
19:08.18 | Monet__ | He's jsut horny |
19:08.21 | Xho | Aye |
19:08.31 | Xho | Nu is the least likely of all Kicath to even contemplate love |
19:08.33 | OluapPlayer | To be honest I preferred Nu before his immortality |
19:08.49 | ImpyDroid | Well I am not sure about Finland either |
19:08.52 | Xho | Well I'm not changing him |
19:09.02 | ImpyDroid | I think Finland and Sweden are just friends |
19:09.04 | OluapPlayer | I don't expect you to |
19:09.06 | ImpyDroid | ...with benefits |
19:09.15 | Xho | Nu - dolgan b my sweden pl0x |
19:09.27 | Monet__ | Xho: I am still on Trevor's early misions but I like how there's one moment where he finishes talking respectfully (sorta) to a bumch of people, goes int ohis car then screams like he just trod on some hot coals. |
19:09.39 | Xho | hur |
19:09.41 | ImpyDroid | Nu is now Finnish |
19:09.54 | ImpyDroid | Actuallt it fits because Borealis is the "north" of the Gigaqudrant |
19:10.00 | Technodroid | Trevor and the torture scene are brutal |
19:10.02 | ImpyDroid | I.e Scandinavia |
19:10.28 | Monet__ | Then I crashed the car in a ditch and he spent the last 60-100 metres of his journey screaming angrily. |
19:10.52 | ImpyDroid | It has vikings (Wranploer) of a sort and a very benevolent and socialistic galactic government |
19:11.03 | Xho | Nu - BALL-BREAKER Mu - fuk |
19:11.07 | ImpyDroid | And lots of immigrants aka Borealis Zazane hur |
19:11.08 | Monet__ | Technodroid: Unlike Jack Bauer though, he doesn't do ti to extract information. |
19:11.27 | Technodroid | :| trevor is just messed up |
19:11.36 | OluapPlayer | I don't see how the PCA is socialistic |
19:11.49 | ImpyDroid | I am referring more to the Zoles specifically |
19:11.58 | OluapPlayer | I don't see how the Zoles are socialistic |
19:12.31 | Monet__ | The problem with torture is that at some point the victim will say anything to make the torture stop, even if its wrong, and they're so desperate its hard to tell whether or not its true. |
19:12.52 | Monet__ | Also there's a chance of killing the interrogatee. Which means you get nothing |
19:13.00 | Xho | Nu - meh |
19:14.06 | Monet__ | Nu's comment just summed up Trevor's attitude: Trevor will torture for fun. |
19:14.20 | Monet__ | But yeah, the dude is 350 kinds of messed up |
19:14.25 | Xho | Then again |
19:14.34 | Xho | Nu's character isn't meant to be as likeable now anyway |
19:15.01 | ImpyDroid | OluapPlayer: Well state economy + society based on social justice |
19:15.29 | OluapPlayer | I shouldn't have asked |
19:15.39 | ImpyDroid | Why so? |
19:15.46 | Xho | I'm not going to America now |
19:15.54 | Xho | My fear of flying has come back in multitudes now |
19:15.57 | Monet__ | Xho: I find playing trevor fun but for soem reason I connect more with Michael. |
19:16.01 | OluapPlayer | I don't understand a word you're saying and I don't really care hur |
19:16.11 | Xho | Monet__: I liked playing as Franklin the most |
19:16.16 | ImpyDroid | hir |
19:16.29 | Monet__ | Franlin reminds me of my uni roommate. |
19:16.53 | ImpyDroid | Anyway |
19:17.16 | ImpyDroid | Technodroid: Do you feel like progressing WLLM? |
19:17.22 | Monet__ | Xho: If it helps things, these two recent crashes happened over land. |
19:17.30 | Monet__ | Not over the sea |
19:17.33 | Xho | NO IT DOESN'T HELP AT ALL |
19:17.36 | Xho | IT JUST DOESN'T |
19:18.09 | ImpyDroid | In general, not ATM |
19:18.09 | ImpyDroid | If you do not I can scratch the idea, I have too many plots now |
19:18.25 | Technodroid | insert futurama response |
19:18.35 | ImpyDroid | Considering the LUDICROUS SPEED at which I write, it's for better |
19:18.35 | Technodroid | "I have no strong feelings one way or another" |
19:19.08 | ImpyDroid | Xho: The Ukrainian military/rebels will find you anywhere |
19:19.15 | Monet__ | I've flown four times if you count return trips...although compared to several people that's still flight newbie territory |
19:19.27 | Xho | I've flown... |
19:19.32 | Xho | If counting return trips |
19:19.35 | Xho | Lemme count |
19:20.25 | Xho | Fourteen times |
19:20.26 | TekDroid | I'd flown round trip to Florida once a year for at least a decade, occasionally with connecting flights. So I've had my share |
19:20.45 | ImpyDroid | I've flown... thirty times or something |
19:21.04 | Xho | I've done enough but these last few months have got me spooked |
19:21.09 | Monet__ | You're more at risk of exposure to UV radiation due to thinner atmosphere. |
19:21.18 | Cyrannian|Away | I've flown about twenty times I believe. |
19:21.39 | Cyrannian|Away | Mostly short flights to the UK or Europe though. |
19:22.10 | Monet__ | First time I ever stepped on board a plane was one bound for the US. |
19:22.17 | ImpyDroid | Same, I mostly fly to either Middle East or Europe |
19:22.19 | Xho | I've been to Italy twice, France, Spain, Turkey, America twice, Japan |
19:22.37 | Xho | Sixteen times then |
19:23.18 | Monet__ | If I could afford it I'd visit Iceland annually |
19:23.36 | ImpyDroid | Italy thrice, Greece four times, Austria, Hungary, Turkey a gorillion times, Egypt, Denmark, Finland, Sweden, Spain twice |
19:23.46 | Xho | >thrice |
19:23.47 | ImpyDroid | Oh, and Israel two times |
19:23.52 | Xho | I should mention no one says that in English |
19:23.57 | ImpyDroid | three tomes |
19:24.14 | Monet__ | SOmeone's been reading Dickens |
19:25.06 | ImpyDroid | And Germany |
19:25.31 | Monet__ | Impy the globetrotter |
19:25.40 | ImpyDroid | And China |
19:25.43 | drom | Sweden, lifetime. |
19:25.50 | ImpyDroid | PEOPLE THERE DRIVE LIKE CRAZY AAAAAH |
19:26.13 | drom | ImpyDroid so are people in Italy. |
19:26.28 | ImpyDroid | And Russia |
19:26.56 | ImpyDroid | I wanna visit the UK though |
19:26.59 | ImpyDroid | And the USA |
19:27.10 | Monet__ | I saw very little traffic in Iceland, and I wass where 70% of the population live |
19:27.15 | Technodroid | USA is awesome |
19:27.17 | Cyrannian|Away | I've been to Spain four times, Italy three times, France once and England six times. |
19:27.20 | Technodroid | UK is boring |
19:27.24 | Technodroid | anyway |
19:27.28 | Technodroid | all my holidays are cruises |
19:27.34 | Technodroid | like this one I'm on now >:) |
19:27.45 | Xho | Best place I've been to is Japan |
19:27.48 | ImpyDroid | Whenever I hear English native speakers in foreign countries I have a littlw metaphorical orgasm |
19:27.59 | ImpyDroid | Especially Brita |
19:28.02 | ImpyDroid | Brits |
19:28.18 | ImpyDroid | I met a British girl in Hungary |
19:28.34 | ImpyDroid | She thought Saint-Petersburg was in Asia |
19:28.59 | OluapPlayer | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DqVonexxNBU have spook |
19:29.17 | Monet__ | Well it is part of Russia and RUssia is primarily Asia, they may have been her logic |
19:29.34 | Xho | OluapPlayer: oh my |
19:29.44 | ImpyDroid | Well I said I am from Saint-Petersburg and I am me |
19:29.57 | ImpyDroid | So she might have made a logical conclusion based on my appearance... |
19:30.16 | Monet__ | There aren't many countries that cross over two continents. |
19:32.28 | ImpyDroid | For some reasons foreigners tend to be very surprised when I say that I am from Russia |
19:33.35 | ImpyDroid | The idea of an Asian Russian tends to shock them for some reason hur |
19:33.54 | Monet__ | Before I joined Sporewiki I used ot be li that too |
19:34.10 | Xho | I want to do War of Vampires dammeth u |
19:34.16 | ImpyDroid | Ditto |
19:34.20 | OluapPlayer | eatus shitus |
19:34.52 | ImpyDroid | Clothovera's new spell |
19:35.32 | Monet__ | I'm guessing "shit" in Latin/Greek is something like "merdus?" |
19:35.46 | ImpyDroid | Greek and Latin are different languages hur |
19:36.12 | Monet__ | I stil lget them mixed up thank you very much Ancient Rome |
19:36.28 | Xho | Excrementus I dunno |
19:36.43 | ImpyDroid | "Merda" |
19:37.21 | ImpyDroid | Gender aside you were right hur |
19:37.39 | Monet__ | In Italian "shit" is "Merde", French is "merde" |
19:37.44 | Monet__ | That was my logic. |
19:37.55 | Monet__ | Wait |
19:37.58 | Monet__ | Italian is Merda |
19:38.09 | Xho | Italian = bastardized Latin |
19:38.17 | Xho | As well as Spanish |
19:38.21 | Xho | Spanish = Mierda |
19:38.27 | ImpyDroid | Welcome to historical linguistics hur |
19:38.54 | ImpyDroid | Comparing words from different languages is fun |
19:38.58 | ImpyDroid | For example |
19:39.24 | ImpyDroid | Did you know that the English "hound" and the Latin "canis" are related (distantly, but still)? |
19:40.13 | ImpyDroid | English and other related languages have that rule that makes all "k"s turn into "h"s |
19:40.25 | Xho | So there's an Algerian flight that has crashed and a Taiwanese flight that has also crashed today |
19:40.32 | Xho | Okay that settles it, fuck flying this century |
19:40.34 | ImpyDroid | Hence hound-canis, heart-cordia, etc etc |
19:41.29 | ImpyDroid | *cor my mistake |
19:43.00 | Monet__ | Plane crashes are still safer than car crashes |
19:43.08 | Xho | >298 dead |
19:43.09 | Monet__ | based on quantity |
19:43.11 | Xho | I doubt it |
19:43.31 | ImpyDroid | Or horn-cornu, as in cornucopia or unicorn |
19:43.39 | Monet__ | 2 planes in a week vs hundreds of crashes in the UK daily. |
19:43.49 | Monet__ | Is it daily or annually? |
19:44.00 | Xho | I dunno |
19:44.13 | Xho | But crashing into another car vs plunging 30000ft to your death |
19:44.36 | Xho | I like my body intact thanks |
19:44.48 | Xho | Mostly anyway |
19:45.04 | Xho | I'm surprised they even found bodies in the MH17 crash |
19:45.38 | ImpyDroid | It was all Bane |
19:45.45 | Monet__ | Not every plane crash results in a catastrophic explosion. |
19:45.47 | OluapPlayer | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAKg6kbXIJM have more spooks |
19:46.23 | Xho | OluapPlayer: This is brilliant because it's one of my favourite 80's songs |
19:46.28 | Monet__ | There were no survivors on the plane shot down by Pro-russina extremists because it was hit by a missile. |
19:46.28 | Xho | Did I mention I'm into 80's music or not |
19:46.35 | Xho | Yeah but |
19:46.40 | Xho | Thirty thousand feet |
19:46.45 | Xho | What survives a thirty thousand feet tall |
19:46.46 | Xho | *fall |
19:46.48 | OluapPlayer | You didn't |
19:46.56 | Xho | Well I am hur |
19:48.14 | ImpyDroid | Monet__: *presumably shot down by pro-Russian separatists OR possibly by the Ukrainian army |
19:48.21 | ImpyDroid | *cough cough* |
19:48.50 | Hachiman | *but most likely pro-Russian extremists |
19:48.57 | Xho | 2014 is not a good year for transport |
19:49.01 | Xho | Or in general |
19:49.03 | ImpyDroid | No definite proof of them being involved has been given, and Ukraine has aerial superiority given that it is their land |
19:49.11 | Xho | The world has seriously taken a few steps back this year |
19:49.25 | ImpyDroid | They are no more extremists than any other separatists |
19:49.32 | ImpyDroid | *extremistic |
19:49.39 | Xho | I like how the UK media brands Putin as a tyrannical extremist |
19:49.49 | *** join/#sporewiki dino_ (52b0ddef@gateway/web/freenode/ip.82.176.221.239) |
19:49.50 | Xho | When we have a bunch of blood-sucking tyrants in government |
19:49.56 | Xho | 650 of them |
19:49.57 | dino_ | hellow |
19:50.08 | Cyrannian|Away | Dino! |
19:50.29 | Monet__ | Xho: Those are MPs, politicans are default blood-sucking tyrants. |
19:50.37 | Xho | True |
19:50.41 | ImpyDroid | Give me proof that they are any worse than the Syrian rebels or the Libyan rebels |
19:50.49 | Xho | My friend's a politician but then again he's for the Green Party |
19:50.50 | dino_ | how is all doing |
19:50.53 | ImpyDroid | You do not call them extremists, do you? |
19:50.54 | Monet__ | Putin is either regarded as more extreme or its hypocracy |
19:51.00 | ImpyDroid | I have yet to see Putin do anything the USA have not done |
19:51.10 | Xho | Honestly all of the world's top nations are the same |
19:51.18 | Xho | Commit atrocities and condemn other nations that do the same |
19:51.21 | ImpyDroid | I mean, there were bombings in Iraq and Syria and Lybia |
19:51.48 | ImpyDroid | Do we build military bases everywhere? We sure do not |
19:51.54 | Xho | I seriously hate politics though |
19:51.58 | Xho | And politicians |
19:52.02 | Xho | And the government |
19:52.08 | ImpyDroid | So how are we any more extremist than the USA, for example? |
19:52.19 | Xho | You've made your point |
19:52.22 | Xho | You can calm down now |
19:52.32 | Cyrannian | This is why living in a tiny, neutral country is so fabulous. |
19:52.58 | dino_ | oh politiclal debates! |
19:53.18 | Xho | It's not really a debate, more like a condemnation of politics |
19:53.56 | Monet__ | It seems human nature to point out the flaws of outsiders |
19:54.04 | Monet__ | Well |
19:54.09 | Monet__ | More li pack behaviour |
19:54.23 | ImpyDroid | Sorry, I was just offended severely |
19:54.25 | ImpyDroid | I would like to recieve apologies if it is possible |
19:54.42 | Xho | I'm not apologising, our country is no better than any other and it's pretty obvious |
19:54.59 | Xho | Then again |
19:55.06 | Monet__ | ImpyDroid: You may want to write a letter ot the staff of the Daily Mail then |
19:55.18 | Xho | Our economy has improved under David Cameron slightly so I'm not complaining that much |
19:56.10 | Xho | I'm no biologist |
19:56.26 | Xho | Actually no wait I'm not asking this question here |
19:56.30 | Xho | I'll look on the internet |
19:56.44 | Cyrannian | I think I'd vote for the Liberal Democrats if I was in the UK. The smaller party in coalition often receives the brunt of public outrage when the government becomes unpopular for some reason, even though I doubt that they are given much say compared to their partners. |
19:57.00 | Xho | ech |
19:57.10 | Monet__ | Cyrannian: I myself believe the Lib Dems get undue blame. |
19:57.21 | Xho | It's mainly because of Nick Clegg who's majorly unpopular with students |
19:57.45 | Xho | He promised to lower tuition fees -> Under the coalition government the tuition fees to £9000 a year |
19:58.09 | ImpyDroid | Internal politics, sure I do not like them, but when we are no worse than anyone else than you |
19:58.09 | ImpyDroid | Ditto with Putin; he has his... moments but I don't hate him |
19:58.09 | ImpyDroid | So; apologise, shall you? |
19:58.13 | Monet__ | People accuse Nick Cleg of betraying his voters when he said that under his leadership the tuition fees would not rise But my understanding is that's like someone blaming your secretary for something you did. |
19:58.46 | Technodroid | fuck right wing and fuck conservative |
19:58.52 | Technodroid | other than that I care little for politics |
19:58.59 | Monet__ | In a press report he stated that had he not been second to cameron, the tuition fees would be even HIGHER |
19:59.07 | TekDroid | One thing I find interesting about the US is that the Democrats, their liberals, are roughly the same as the Conservatives here in Canada. |
19:59.11 | Xho | That is possible |
19:59.14 | Monet__ | Because Cameron's a stuck-up tory |
19:59.27 | Xho | The main assumption of the Lib Dems is that they'll chameleon themselves into any other party |
19:59.32 | Xho | They're not even that big a party any more |
19:59.43 | Xho | It's more like the Conservatives, Labour and UKIP nowadays |
19:59.49 | ImpyDroid | ...Guys, I apologise to you all the time, is making a little apology THAT hard? |
19:59.53 | TekDroid | In Toronto there's a conservative politican who's last name is Tory. :P |
20:00.17 | Xho | It is for me considering I'm a massive narcissist |
20:00.24 | Cyrannian | Yeah, UKIP is pretty scary. |
20:00.37 | Xho | I have mixed views on UKIP |
20:00.48 | Technodroid | I don't |
20:00.52 | Technodroid | I hate them |
20:00.58 | Xho | I like their idea of an EU referendum since it's a pretty hot topic but then again their more notorious members are stupid |
20:01.08 | Monet__ | ImpyDroid: as much as we feel for your reaction to the smack-talk against Putin, I think you may be asking for an apology towards the wrong people by asking on this channel. |
20:01.24 | ImpyDroid | Hey |
20:01.31 | ImpyDroid | I apologise to you quite often |
20:01.32 | Xho | I also think people are under the misconception of removing *all* immigrants from the UK, from what I gather I think they're more along the lines of strict border control instead |
20:01.32 | Monet__ | Its the tabloids spouting that crap |
20:01.37 | Monet__ | not us |
20:01.55 | Xho | But then again |
20:02.05 | Xho | Politicians are capricious and corrupt |
20:02.15 | Xho | You can't trust one no matter how honeyed their words are |

20:02.33 | TekDroid | Hello |
20:02.34 | Wormy | hi |
20:02.49 | Monet__ | After the Tories backstabbed the middle classes and the Lib Dems lost all influence, I'm more inclined to voting Green Party. |
20:03.23 | Xho | I'd just vote UKIP to scare the country for shits and giggles |
20:03.27 | ImpyDroid | And I am yet to see Hachi state anything |
20:03.41 | Hachiman | What? |
20:03.43 | Cyrannian | ImpyDroid: Did I say anything to annoy you? |
20:03.44 | Xho | To be honest |
20:03.58 | Xho | Only about a quarter of the country only vaguely gives a shit about the government |
20:03.59 | ImpyDroid | You? Nope |
20:04.10 | Hachiman | I was making a joke |
20:04.11 | Monet__ | Xho: Isn't that how UKIP won the seats in the European parliament? |
20:04.12 | Wormy | Green Party seem to be pretty progressive too, I wanted to vote them at the European elections for they were on neither extreme - "leave EU" or "Bow down and kiss its feet" instead they wanted to actually improve it, so they claim |
20:04.14 | Technodroid | UKIP admitted to being bigots |
20:04.19 | Xho | Monet__: Pretty much |
20:04.22 | ImpyDroid | I was just a lil' offended that you called the pro-Russian separatists extremist |
20:04.36 | Technodroid | mind you, I |
20:04.38 | ImpyDroid | How are they different from the rebels in Libya or Syria? |
20:04.46 | Wormy | I used to be a Lib Dem but now I don't like any of the parties |
20:05.37 | ImpyDroid | Mind you, they may appear to be more violent to you, but that's because you are on different sides of the war; we tend to highlight the questionable actions of the Ukrainians instead |
20:06.04 | Wormy | There is plenty of news showing the Ukrainian side isn't all that good |
20:06.16 | Wormy | Lots of Jews actually left Ukraine in fear |
20:06.27 | Xho | The UK government blames Russia because, well, obvious reasons |
20:06.42 | Xho | There isn't any proof at all that's been released to the public |
20:06.51 | Wormy | I don't trust the West or Russia in the matter over Ukraine hur |
20:07.07 | Wormy | The media isn't fully trustworthy |
20:07.11 | Monet__ | I think the US extreme right might still have shades of cold war paranoia in it |
20:07.21 | Xho | Though I think parliament did have a vote on not entering Ukraine |
20:07.37 | Xho | I know we didn't enter Syria that's for sure |
20:07.47 | Xho | Speaking of Syria, that hasn't been on the news in a long time |
20:08.01 | Xho | It's mostly Gaza vs Israel and the plane crash at the moment |
20:08.52 | Xho | The media has pretty much shunted Syria to one side |
20:08.59 | Zmr56 | Well I know nothing about sci-fi space weapons so I'm not sure what to put down on the Arms Market, keepng in mind I'm a high tier 3 with some access to Tier 2 tech |
20:09.40 | Wormy | Have you heard of that new bill the Conservatives quietly past? It would give the government even more control to look at the websites we read or look at. This snooping would allow them to use your search history as evbidence against you |
20:09.44 | ImpyDroid | Hachiman: It didn't seem like a joke to me |
20:09.44 | ImpyDroid | Where is the humour? |
20:10.24 | Wormy | No doubt my comment will probs be flagged |
20:11.11 | Xho | OluapPlayer: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WuC0RPFXpzs Nu's guessing powers |
20:12.13 | TekDroid | It seems like half the middle east went to hell right now and we're hearing almost nothing. |
20:12.17 | dino_ | lol |
20:12.32 | ImpyDroid | On the side note..m |
20:12.36 | Xho | "Who's that slut?" Nu - IT'S DOLGAN *Kalcedia* Nu - FUCK |
20:12.50 | ImpyDroid | <PROTECTED> |
20:12.53 | ImpyDroid | But look at her |
20:13.07 | Xho | This does nothing for me |
20:13.08 | Xho | Nothing |
20:13.08 | ImpyDroid | Is it just me or does she have... "special" eyes? |
20:13.16 | Xho | It's called Photoshop |
20:13.57 | ImpyDroid | The more I look into her eyes, the more unnerving she becomes |
20:14.06 | Xho | Yes the media edits pictures of females |

20:15.15 | Xho | Nu - u meen dats all makeup |
20:15.29 | ImpyDroid | 9 |
20:15.36 | Monet__ | One of my A&D classmates did this for a final project. |
20:15.40 | Xho | You know I'm not even sure whether Nu is even serious about his sexual desires |
20:15.46 | ImpyDroid | I am not talking about tits |
20:15.51 | Monet__ | She took photos of classmates and used photoshop to make them appear more attractive |
20:15.55 | Xho | And whether he's doing it to scare the crap out of everyone |
20:16.06 | ImpyDroid | I am talking about eyes |
20:16.06 | ImpyDroid | They look derpy |
20:16.06 | Monet__ | Scariest part was her concept worked |
20:16.20 | ImpyDroid | GENIUS |
20:16.59 | ImpyDroid | All I wanted to note was her goddamn googly eyes u |
20:17.18 | ImpyDroid | For this exact moment the rest of her body does not concern me |
20:17.47 | Xho | Her eyes seem pretty stupid to me |
20:17.53 | Xho | Then again I'm not a fan of people |
20:17.57 | Xho | Y'ALL LOOK STUPID |
20:18.50 | Xho | The fact that Nu's page states him as Chaotic Evil might indicate that he probably doesn't like Dolgan or Kalcedia that much at all |
20:19.27 | Xho | Or anyone in that matter |
20:19.32 | ImpyDroid | Speaking of which |
20:19.35 | Xho | Or he likes everyone I dunno how it works with Nu any more |
20:20.01 | Monet__ | Nu - I hate everyone equally. But some are more hated by me than others. |
20:20.08 | ImpyDroid | Is the Empire of Man more chaotic neutral than lawful evil now that I changed |
20:20.18 | OluapPlayer | Lawful neutral |
20:20.34 | ImpyDroid | Monet__: ALL PEOPLE I WANNA SLAUGHTER ARE EQUAL, BUT SOME ARE MKRE EQUAL THAN THE OTHERS |
20:20.45 | ImpyDroid | ANUmal Farm |
20:21.41 | Xho | Nu - Friends are much like bananas. If you peel a banana, you notice the mushy innards. Much like your friends. Bananas don't taste as nice as friends though. |
20:22.11 | ImpyDroid | Yeah but the whole 'FREEDOM' rhetoric makes Imperials more chaotic IMO |
20:22.36 | OluapPlayer | Is their government that disorganized? |
20:22.46 | Cyrannian | https://scontent-b-lhr.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xap1/v/t1.0-9/10491065_10152521102786558_6318007250642602741_n.jpg?oh=46b8b267d8dcb55e99e53d1b6f8695cb&oe=544237E4 - Ooh, exciting |
20:23.00 | Xho | Shingeki no Smaug |
20:23.04 | OluapPlayer | I thought the idea was that they wanted to implement their law over everyone else's |
20:23.04 | ImpyDroid | Hm... no |
20:23.21 | Xho | They just sound like a humanocentric America really hur |
20:23.25 | Xho | So yeah chaotic evil |
20:23.30 | Wormylus | If anybody moans about the Hobbit trilogy I will castrate you |
20:23.33 | ImpyDroid | Xho: That was my intention |
20:23.44 | Hachiman | Ew Hobbit is too kiddy for my liking |
20:23.52 | OluapPlayer | ribbit |
20:23.59 | Monet__ | Wormy: I do wonder if they may or may not have stretched it out too much |
20:24.08 | Cyrannian | is shocked that Hachiman would risk castration |
20:24.21 | Wormylus | I thought it was may more entertaining that LoTR, no long scenes of well, walking. |
20:24.22 | Monet__ | Kiddy -> Benjamin Cumberbatch as a DRAGON |
20:24.29 | Wormylus | Not shocking really |
20:24.36 | Xho | é²æã®ç« |
20:24.49 | Cyrannian | http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/6/66/JurassicWorldComicConPoster.jpg - Ngh, doubly exciting |
20:24.57 | Xho | I find Lord of the Rings far better than the Hobbit thouh |
20:25.00 | Xho | *though |
20:25.03 | OluapPlayer | raptru |
20:25.06 | Hachiman | Yeah, kiddy. LotR is far more mature |
20:25.07 | Wormylus | They were already killing the mood of that one earlier Cyrannian |
20:25.12 | ImpyDroid | OluapPlayer: The idea is that the Empire is so paranoid about their FREEDUHM that it seeks to destroy any potential threat to it |
20:25.13 | OluapPlayer | [cell phone plays inside spinosaur] |
20:25.21 | dino_ | Bye! |
20:25.24 | dino_ | have to go again |
20:25.25 | dino_ | bye bye |
20:25.27 | Wormylus | bye |
20:25.29 | Technodroid | LotR all sucks >:) |
20:25.32 | ImpyDroid | Hachiman: They should not have made it into a hugeass fantasy IMO |
20:25.37 | Monet__ | OluapPlayer: I'm still struggling as to the logic behind that scene's setup |
20:25.39 | Technodroid | I have no opinion on LotR |
20:25.41 | ImpyDroid | It's a children's book |
20:25.43 | OluapPlayer | I have to say |
20:25.44 | Xho | Technodroid: I'm not a fantasy fan but even that is an awful statement |
20:25.50 | OluapPlayer | I find it extremely charismatic hur |
20:26.05 | Wormylus | One of LoTR films had a really long and unecessary ending |
20:26.11 | Cyrannian | I probably find LotR more enjoyable and memorable, but I still love the Hobbit. |
20:26.12 | Xho | That would be the last one hur |
20:26.14 | OluapPlayer | It's extremely silly but I can see the idea behind it |
20:26.17 | Wormylus | Of like 40 minutes |
20:26.47 | Wormylus | Anyway, run time |
20:26.47 | ImpyDroid | I would rather see new ideas and concepts explored in Hollywood |
20:26.48 | Monet__ | Is it me or does thet Jurassic WOrld poster seem somehow...nostalgic? |
20:26.56 | ImpyDroid | Personallt |
20:27.05 | OluapPlayer | Well the raptor has no feathers |
20:27.10 | OluapPlayer | Does that count hur |
20:27.10 | Xho | 0/10 no sass |
20:27.11 | ImpyDroid | Nostalgia is good but new blood, we need it badlt |
20:27.37 | Xho | They need to make a good Transformers series that's what they need to do |
20:27.40 | Cyrannian | Well it's set on the first island and the raptor appears to be standing on the same car in the first film that was pushed off the cliff, so I'd say there's some nostalgia involved. |
20:27.58 | Hachiman | Jurassic World -> Set on the same island from the start |
20:28.07 | Monet__ | I was also referrring to the style of the poster. Reminds me of something fro mthe 80s |
20:28.12 | ImpyDroid | ditto |
20:28.51 | ImpyDroid | I may not be a big LotR fun but I like the effort put in it |
20:28.57 | ImpyDroid | And all the puns |
20:29.18 | Monet__ | [21:27] <@OluapPlayer> Well the raptor has no feathers >> I'd say this is oen issue with the Jurassic Park series; it uses an understanding ogf palaentology from 25 years ago. |
20:29.18 | ImpyDroid | If you know a little bit of Old English, LotR becomes filled with puns |
20:29.24 | Technodroid | never watched, don't have an opinion. but everyone seems to love it |
20:29.49 | OluapPlayer | The raptors had feathers in III iirc |
20:29.54 | OluapPlayer | I remember everyone mocking it |
20:30.01 | ImpyDroid | "Saruman", for example, is from Old English 'searu', which means either mechanism or cunning |
20:30.09 | ImpyDroid | And he is a cunning dude that makes mechanisms |
20:30.22 | Monet__ | Understanding 25 years ago in the field of palaentology is considered OOOLLLD. |
20:30.52 | OluapPlayer | Raptors aren't that big either but they wouldn't be as spooky if they were normal sized |
20:30.53 | Xho | Like controversially having a child at age 25 nowadays is considered OOOLLLD |
20:31.24 | Xho | If I ever came up with something relevant it would be an enlightening day |
20:31.59 | OluapPlayer | They were half-meter tall feathered clowns |
20:32.02 | OluapPlayer | just like Cyrannian |
20:32.03 | OluapPlayer | hih |
20:32.15 | Cyrannian | offended |
20:32.52 | Xho | hoh |
20:33.14 | Monet__ | The raptors in the films were *colossal* compared to real raptors |
20:33.40 | Xho | Hm |
20:33.48 | OluapPlayer | Would make more sense if they were utahraptors instead of velociraptors |

20:33.56 | Xho | I wonder whether if there will be a chat that I actually know a lot about on this IRC |
20:33.57 | Cyrannian | Well, compared to real velociraptors. They were about the same size as Deinonychus. |
20:34.09 | Xho | Palaeontology is not my strong point |
20:34.13 | OluapPlayer | Utahraptors were big lizards |
20:34.22 | Monet__ | Yeah. |
20:34.31 | ImpyDroid | Hi |
20:34.34 | Hachiman | Needs more T-rex wank |
20:34.47 | Monet__ | T-rex is old news |

20:34.56 | Monet__ | All hail allosaurus |
20:35.22 | Hachiman | Yeah but I find T-rex getting nommed on by a pissy Spinosuchus unrealistic |
20:35.23 | OluapPlayer | Now I picture Jurassic Park but with Deviljho from Monster Hunter |
20:35.29 | OluapPlayer | Deviljho being a T-rex who breaths lasers |
20:35.34 | Cyrannian | http://blog.joemacirowski.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/raptorscale1k.png - The smallest is Velociraptor, followed by Deinonychus followed by Utahraptor |
20:35.41 | ImpyDroid | Hachiman: For a split second I understood your sentence literally |
20:35.49 | ImpyDroid | T-Rex wank as in, you know... |
20:35.53 | Monet__ | T-rex who breaths lasers :Japan: |
20:35.58 | Hachiman | You goddamn scalie |
20:36.02 | OluapPlayer | There's also Tigrex |
20:36.07 | OluapPlayer | Who's a wyvern with a T-rex's head |
20:36.31 | Xho | I'm not sure what my favourite saurian thingamajig is |
20:36.54 | Monet__ | Hollywood is bad at portraying lasers but then again lasers aren't impressive unless they're either inefficient or in a dusty room |
20:36.56 | OluapPlayer | Deviljho has so many teeth they grow out of its chin |
20:37.03 | Cyrannian | T. rex is my favourite. |

20:40.45 | Xho | 1998 is as far away as 2030 |

20:41.18 | ImpyDroid | Or a crystal monster, or an icy dude, or into a tree |
20:41.26 | Cyrannian | Xho: Frightening. |
20:41.39 | OluapPlayer | Dragon element is Monster Hunter's "if the enemy has this it means they mean business" element |

21:14.18 | Liquid_Ink | Did we ever get a decent map for the CivVerse? |
21:14.27 | Wormy | Not to my knowledge |
21:14.59 | Wormy | I want to create a legendary fiction about UFO's in the CivVerse, they wouldn't be proven to be alien, of course |
21:15.25 | Cyrannian|STO | Zmr56: Thanks for the quote! :) |
21:15.37 | Zmr56 | Your welcome! |
21:15.45 | Wormy | And a magical adventure story involving the Islanders, a journey (possibly the Jules Vernian moon idea), and the Lunsincth |
21:16.32 | Cyrannian|STO | The fact that I'm forced to travel at Warp 5 in the early levels of STO irritates me. |
21:16.53 | Zmr56 | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Arms_Market#Starships And I've added a frigate on the arms market, also some melee weapons at the bottom |
21:17.35 | Monet__ | Only the very early levels |
21:18.13 | TekDroid | What bugged me was the linear increase of speed with warp factor, rather than the exponential. |
21:18.14 | Monet__ | Not every starship has the power supply to acheive warp 9.92 |
21:18.51 | Monet__ | TekDroid: I think War pSpeed was calculated differently in the original series |
21:19.16 | TekDroid | Maybe. |
21:19.50 | Monet__ | PLus there was a mentino of "warp 13" in the finale of TNG |
21:21.38 | Tybusen | Were the warp numbers supposed to be fractions of the speed of light? I can't remember |
21:21.41 | TekDroid | I think warp factors in general were rather inconsistent in thr series. |
21:21.55 | Tybusen | Or multiples? |
21:22.14 | TekDroid | Tybusen: I think it was supposed to be how much you were warping space. |
21:22.56 | Monet__ | They couldn't have been fractions |
21:23.16 | Tybusen | Monet__: I realized that as soon as I typed it |
21:23.33 | Monet__ | Warp I is definitely the sol |
21:25.23 | Tybusen | Maybe it's exponential increases |
21:26.53 | Tybusen | Whatever the standard was in the 2009 movie, it was enough to go from Earth to Vulcan in a matter of seconds |
21:29.29 | Wormy | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_three_Rs should be replaced with http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trivium_(education) and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadrivium in academic school classes |
21:33.26 | Wormy | On a serious note, I wonder if the value of criticism (of ones own work, and of others, and of ideas spread by people and consumer products) and critical thinking and scientific method would protect people from consumer fraud, silly ideas like solar freakin roadways, and anti-science |
21:33.45 | Monet__ | Hachiman: Looking at the article you linked about religious children struggling ot tell fact from fiction. My hypotesis is that it does relate to what they were told when they were younger definitely. At the earliest stages of social development, being told osmething and being expected to separate fact from fantasy could put your life at risk. |
21:34.11 | Wormy | since every mind is fallible it wouldn't be a cure but it might help people solve problems better |
21:35.35 | Monet__ | Its to do with the learning process I think (the point about discerning fact from fantasy). The skill to tell what is truth and what is lie could be something that is imparted upon at an early age |
21:35.39 | Wormy | Seriously I must mention my dad's student again who thought she would go into the second year desapite doing little work, and the other student's final major project was a cartoon car - I bet they had no proper judgment in school thus have no idea how to value their work |
21:36.09 | Wormy | These are the future workforce! |
21:37.11 | Monet__ | Wormy: I agree with you. Criticism isn't inherently a bad thing. Part of the learning process is learning from mistakes. How exactly do peope learn from mistakes when they're brought up not being told what they're doing is wrong? |
21:37.42 | Wormy | Criticism is beautiful |
21:37.54 | Monet__ | WIthout criticism how do peope know if they've screwed up? |
21:38.08 | Wormy | "Science begins with myths, and the criticism of myths" --Karl Popper |
21:38.54 | Wormy | I'm very partial to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Critical_rationalism , falsification and http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Explanatory_power myself |
21:39.10 | Monet__ | Maybe it relates to the human subconsious desire for a black and white reality? In this case, people end up believing that criticism is bad and a nasty thing while praise is good. |
21:39.18 | Wormy | indeed |
21:39.43 | Wormy | I generally have the idea that people get the wrong idea about what proving something means in science |

21:40.07 | OfficerJackal | Hello! |
21:40.16 | Wormy | They think observation -> scientist judges it (or pre if they are antiscience) -> proof |
21:40.23 | Wormy | hi |
21:41.33 | Monet__ | And then there's the people who assume theory = rock-solid fact. |
21:43.24 | Wormy | But really, theoryhood works like this: Problem -> Conjectured solutions (creativity) -> Criticism (scientific method/tests, falsification, prediction, if theory doesn't fit, go back to conjecture) -> Replacement of erroneous theories (so its not deduction or induction) |
21:44.45 | Wormy | This is opposed to instrumentalism, radical empiricism and positivism, which died in the early 20th century mostly (but there are still positivist quantum theorists - "shut up and calculate") |

21:47.11 | Wormy | But they have the wrong idea how science actually works (a very 19th century idea lol) |
21:47.59 | Monet__ | I am reminded of an episode of South Park where Cartman travels ot a future populated entirely by Atheists...except they're all just as cloded-minded and bigoted as the fundamentalists they had berated for so long. |

21:48.30 | Monet__ | Just replace "God" and "Jesus" with "Science" and you have that society |
21:48.41 | Wormy | lol atheists |
21:49.12 | Wormy | Despite being one I find a lot are extremist or think they know something "more true" |
21:49.35 | Wormy | But knowing is a very complicated philosophy |
21:49.58 | Monet__ | It gets exttra-funny when in the episode they throw phrases around like "Praise be to Science" |
21:50.06 | TekDroid | O.o |
21:50.35 | Monet__ | Or "Sciencedamn it" |
21:51.01 | Wormy | As a fallibalist (also lol) I argue there is no absolute knowledge, that philosophies of absolute truthness obscure truth the most. I can't be be a fallibalist infallibly |
21:51.15 | Wormy | *can't even be a |
21:52.34 | Monet__ | Sadly it is true that there are ahteists out there who adhere to their scientific understanding as bluntly as theists do to their sense of faith. |
21:52.48 | Monet__ | As I said, there are atheists who think theory = concrete fact. |
21:52.50 | Wormy | yep |
21:54.15 | Wormy | I worry that a lot of transhumanism isn't based on much science |
21:54.15 | Monet__ | I'll be back later |
21:54.22 | Wormy | cya |
21:59.08 | Wormy | Monet__ When you come back, this illustrates what we are saying: The mathematician Carl Friedrich Gauss set out to prove the parallel axiom of Euclid's geometry. He got assistants with lanterns and had them stand there so he could measure the vertices. He detected no deviation to 180 degrees and concluded it was true |
21:59.11 | Wormy | damn |
22:00.10 | Wormy | I'll finish - It wasn't until the explanatory framework on General Realativity that we know that angles do not always add up to 180 degrees, it depends on the gravitational field within the triangle |
22:01.52 | Wormy | likely the geometry of the universe still isn't fully sussed out |

23:00.23 | Monet_ | Hi |
23:00.46 | Monet_ | In a flash of analytical curiosity, I'm wondering about trying to calculate the best effective wingspan needed for Draconis to fly. |
23:01.51 | Wormy | Maybe also consider things like atmospheric density and its effect of lift |
23:01.55 | Wormy | *on |
23:03.10 | Zillafire101 | Hello all. |
23:03.29 | Monet_ | Well I'm assuming that Alcanti's atmosphere (where they would have evolved) is comparable or slightly denser than our own |
23:05.41 | Monet_ | http://th06.deviantart.net/fs71/PRE/f/2014/038/6/a/6a717780b6af12a24a991ee35a923a14-d75j0z1.jpg http://spacer176.deviantart.com/art/Draconid-Compendium-Scale-411296940 with these images in mind I also wonder if their average wingspan is more than the previously-stated ten metres. |
23:06.24 | Monet_ | Their torsos alone measure almost a metre across. |
23:10.14 | Wormy | looks at drom |
23:10.34 | Wormy | Unfortunately my biology is where it was at for the last few years |
23:11.13 | Wormy | Would you like them to have controlled flight or to be more like a glider? |
23:11.46 | Monet_ | Controlled. |
23:12.15 | Wormy | I know there are other adaptations to consider, parts that increase surface area, hollow bones, gas filled bladders |
23:12.42 | Wormy | latter might not work in an Earth-like atmosphere |
23:12.42 | Monet_ | Hollow bones and gas-filled glands I have considered. |
23:13.02 | Wormy | That would mean differences to their other characteristics maybe |
23:13.47 | Monet_ | I think I have indicated that Draconis can use their stomachs as an extra balloon gland. Although they can only do so when their stomachs are empty. |
23:14.02 | Wormy | I What about life cycles? Maybe they go through a period of being smaller and able to fly |
23:14.44 | Wormy | But then there needs to be a good evolutionary explanation why they lose flight |
23:15.14 | Cyrannian | http://img2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140724190721/spore/images/d/d5/Empress_Minarela.png - Empress Minarela of the Regellis Empire |
23:15.19 | Monet_ | I made it canon recently that, like lobsters and other reptiles, Draconis don't stop growing. |
23:15.27 | Wormy | Maybe increase size/stature/bone density to rear ytoung |
23:15.44 | Wormy | and protect them |
23:16.04 | Monet_ | So a period where they are young, small-ish and can fly is possible. |
23:16.32 | Wormy | It might make interesting fiction - like soldiers young enough to fly properly, or sports |
23:16.53 | Wormy | Just like how different sports have different ages |
23:17.04 | Zmr56 | Cyrannian: she looks quite menacing |
23:17.37 | Wormy | Football - 30's is the end of your carerr really le Tour de France - stanima actually increases with age, men in 30's and 40's do well on mountains |
23:18.01 | Monet_ | Wormy: I've mentioned that in the past the Draconis used to foster the idea of dive-bomber and dogfight-like skirmishers. Maybe most of them were in fact young? |
23:18.14 | Wormy | indeed |
23:18.44 | Wormy | There might be controversy too, to right about. Like young men conscripted to die before they can have kids |
23:18.50 | Wormy | *write |
23:19.04 | Wormy | Maybev procreation stimulates growth |
23:20.29 | Monet_ | Interesting ideas. |
23:20.58 | Monet_ | Hehe, the "procreation stimulates growth" does remind me of how older lobsters are not only bigger, but often more fertile! |
23:22.07 | Hachiman | So basically the larger lobsters are pervy old men like Master Roshi |
23:22.21 | TekDroid | Sounds like an escalating cycle. |
23:22.30 | Monet_ | Prettymuch Hachi. |
23:24.57 | Wormy | It is the beautiful truth! |
23:26.40 | Monet_ | I can work with this, maybe use it to mellow out the period where their growth slows down |
23:27.58 | Monet_ | Maybe they slow down by say...200 years old, the 200-300 mark is when they get too big and bulky to fly? |
23:29.09 | Wormy | futuristic http://www.newscientist.com/article/dn25939-liquid-bits-could-brim-with-data-in-future-computers.html#.U9GWX_ldV8E |
23:29.24 | Wormy | yeah |
23:29.47 | Wormy | And maybe it is seen not just as a sad thing, but also as a sign of age and wisdom |
23:30.44 | Monet_ | Definitely. |
23:31.14 | Monet_ | When one is young they are versatile, energetic and practical, whe nthey are older they are veterens with wisdom to share. |
23:31.16 | Zillafire101 | Gotta go, cya all alter |
23:31.19 | Zillafire101 | *later |
23:32.23 | Wormy | As well as greater physical strenth and resilience to enjoy |
23:32.33 | Monet_ | Yeah. |
23:34.17 | Monet_ | If I apply this to the characters I have, Uriel and Alensia would be at the transitional stage (which conjures up images that they end up making *even more kids* in their senior years), Sarec and Alessa are in their prime and Larnus is past it, preferring the command deck to a battleship to soaring with the wind against his scales. |
23:38.05 | Monet_ | Although back to wingspans, typical spans (perhaps for the youngers) seem closer to 14-16 metres. |

23:45.20 | TekDroid | Maybe I should do some fiction work. The Farengeto Trade Coalition page needs some work. |
23:45.47 | Tynorg6 | Seems like a plan... as for me, I come with a question regarding Space Stage. |
23:46.13 | Tynorg6 | Is it normal to encounter a T1 Civ planet where the only other life form on the planet is a small plant? |
23:46.42 | TekDroid | Anything can develop civilization. |
23:47.06 | TekDroid | It's atypical but not impossible in Spore |
23:47.27 | Tynorg6 | Right... I just found it very, very strange that this planet has only a small plant as its entire ecosystem (aside from the civilisation in question). |
23:48.01 | Wormy_away | I remember those |
23:48.03 | Wormy_away | bbl |
23:49.06 | TekDroid | Spore wprks better mentally if you imagine ecosystem slots as simplied clusters, where each one would represent dozens, hundreds or even thousands of species. |
23:49.26 | Tynorg6 | Yeah, that makes sense. |
23:50.14 | Tynorg6 | And I've come to the conclusion that the complete absence of animal life on that planet is a sign that this race of balls somehow managed to cause a mass extinction. .w. |
