| 01:05.15 | Angrybirds | Most people here have already seen it. |
| 01:06.18 | DrodoEmpire | Yep. |
| 01:48.14 | Tek0516 | Wow... that was a massive battle in EUIV. |
| 01:48.54 | Tek0516 | It's 1507 and I just ran a pitched battle with roughly 50k on each side. |
| 02:08.19 | DrodoEmpire | Really? |
| 02:08.21 | DrodoEmpire | Damn. |
| 02:15.05 | Angrybirds | Tybusen: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/File:French_Quadrantian_Trade_Route_Crisis.png |
| 02:33.49 | Tek0516 | DrodoEmpire: Won it too, though winning the war is proving difficult. |
| 02:33.59 | DrodoEmpire | Ah |
| 02:34.32 | Tek0516 | Venice vs Poland and Lithuania. Take from that what you wish. |
| 02:35.09 | DrodoEmpire | lol |
| 02:35.29 | Tek0516 | I only started it on the assumption Lithuania would reject due to its war with Finland. -.' |
| 02:35.32 | Tek0516 | *-.- |
| 02:37.41 | Tek0516 | ...you'd think the game would notify me if rebels popped up while I was sieging a province. -.- |
| 02:39.54 | Angrybirds | What do you guys think of that picture? |
| 02:40.49 | DrodoEmpire | Its nice. |
| 02:40.53 | Tek0516 | Looks really cool. Dark and mysterious, great job with the debris. |
| 02:41.01 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
| 02:41.09 | DrodoEmpire | How did you do the debris? |
| 02:41.10 | Tybusen | Needs more lens flare /brick'd |
| 02:41.46 | Tybusen | It's good, although I would've added an explosion somewhere in there as well |
| 02:41.58 | Tybusen | But the debris looks great |
| 02:45.05 | Angrybirds | Danke. :D |
| 02:45.29 | Angrybirds | DrodoEmpire: I spammed a disjointed vehicle which I made by just spamming parts. |
| 02:45.43 | DrodoEmpire | Ah, alright. |
| 02:51.21 | Angrybirds | Here's your explosion,Tybusen: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/File:French_Quadrantian_Trade_Route_Crisis.png |

| 03:04.58 | Angrybirds | Inspired by something that just happened to me in Wargame. I was holding a treeline with a row of tanks, and they were picking enemy tanks off at a distance. I brought in an ENORMOUS supply chopper to give them more ammo before hauling arse out of there, just in time. Right as I took off, artillery shells began falling on where my helicopter previously was. |
| 03:05.41 | Angrybirds | Also, Corsica is getting Quadrant Colonies. This is happening. |

| 03:23.57 | Angrybirds | Anyone want to set up manufactories/shipyards in Heer Stekeveel space? |
| 03:24.11 | Angrybirds | Cheap labor, next to no taxes! |
| 03:24.40 | Angrybirds | And very little government regulation to the point where you might actually have to enforce the peace yourself. |
| 03:26.40 | Angrybirds | Tybusen Tek0516 DrodoEmpire OfficerJackal DrodoEmpire ? |
| 03:27.19 | OfficerJackal | Greater Hal'Sk Empire might have a go at it, although there are ethical issues they would be a bit conflicted about. |
| 03:28.30 | Angrybirds | In the case of the Hal'Sk empires, it might be corporations setting those up, so the ethical issue wouldn't matter. |
| 03:34.38 | Tek0516 | Maybe I'll have a Farengeto corporation move in. |
| 03:35.23 | Angrybirds | Alright. Give me names and maybe a rough location on the map (I'm concentrating some in the lower right atm), and I'll put them on. Open as many as you like. |
| 03:35.47 | Angrybirds | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/File:Heer_Sketeevel_Confederation_Map.png |
| 03:36.16 | Tek0516 | Made a starship corporation name a while back. Gotta check the name. |
| 03:37.27 | Tek0516 | O.o In EUIV my reinforcement cost is one and a half times the actual maintenance. |
| 03:37.44 | Tek0516 | ...even though I actually have no manpower to reinforce it with. O.o |
| 03:40.30 | OfficerJackal | Angrybirds: Well, of course they could, doesn't mean the government can't ask them to cut it out or improve conditions inside HSC space, or risk hefty fines. Inspectors would probably come once in a while as well. |
| 03:41.04 | OfficerJackal | GHE Government - Givin' us a bad name fegget, stahp. |
| 03:41.07 | Angrybirds | OfficerJackal: Up to you. Nobody said you couldn't make life better for your Heer Stekeveel subordinates. |
| 03:41.21 | OfficerJackal | Angrybirds: Right. XD |
| 03:43.04 | Angrybirds | Give me names and locations, dmnit |
| 03:43.53 | Knight_Alien | XD |
| 03:44.50 | OfficerJackal | Hmm, the GHE would probably have a raw-materials corporation set up in the territory with the weird yellow symbol. |
| 03:45.03 | OfficerJackal | Ysira Mining Corporation |
| 03:45.08 | OfficerJackal | Yeah, that sounds good. |
| 03:47.16 | Angrybirds | Just one? |
| 03:48.02 | Angrybirds | How big of an operation is it? |
| 03:48.52 | OfficerJackal | Pretty darn big. |
| 03:49.08 | Angrybirds | plz be more vague |
| 03:49.19 | Angrybirds | (Joking.) |
| 03:49.25 | OfficerJackal | Big. |
| 03:49.28 | OfficerJackal | Bi. |
| 03:49.29 | OfficerJackal | B. |
| 03:49.31 | OfficerJackal | . |
| 03:49.32 | Angrybirds | *slaps* |
| 03:49.33 | OfficerJackal | <PROTECTED> |
| 03:49.47 | OfficerJackal | Lol. XD |
| 03:49.50 | Angrybirds | ^ |
| 03:50.19 | OfficerJackal | But yeah, if the government is really that weak, they might even bring their own police force and stuff over there. |
| 03:50.21 | OfficerJackal | Speaking of it... |
| 03:50.26 | OfficerJackal | I could make a new fiction out of it. :D |
| 03:51.08 | OfficerJackal | Ysiria! Digging into the ground so you don't have to! |
| 03:51.29 | OfficerJackal | Ysiria* |
| 03:51.30 | OfficerJackal | Fuc |
| 03:51.35 | Tek0516 | :/ GA's images are getting messed up... |
| 03:52.05 | Angrybirds | Describe the operation to me, then? The Heer Stekeveel tribes don't have any industry and live in decentralized tribal communities. They're extremely poor and often war among themselves for food, but the promise of steady pay and bread (however meagre) could bring them to artificial cities. |
| 03:52.37 | Angrybirds | An alternative would be to employ slave labor captured from warring tribes. |
| 03:52.45 | Angrybirds | captured by warring tribes* |
| 03:54.55 | OfficerJackal | Angrybirds: Well, pretty much they are going to be mining multiple planets at the same time, it's going to be a massive operation with Heer Stekeevel on those worlds being given the option to be employed, or to just live on with their lives. Artificial towns and cities would be made, and they would actually be treated fairly well, with efforts being put into place to not effect the planet that badly with the mining. |
| 03:55.02 | OfficerJackal | Government regulation 4 the win yo. |
| 03:56.00 | Angrybirds | Alright. Would they have an central refinery or processing plant in Heer Stekeveel space? |
| 03:56.22 | Tek0516 | Tremys-Tathil, a mining and refinery corporation crested by the Lagahti. Give them widespread operations in the upper right of the one with the three swords. |
| 03:56.23 | OfficerJackal | Angrybirds: Actually, I was thinking about it, and to expand their horizons and fiction opprotunities, I could just make them a corporation that does just about everything, from mining to producing goods. |
| 03:56.46 | DrodoEmpire | I know I'm late to the discussion, but a Drodo corporation or two might set up, as well. |
| 03:57.02 | OfficerJackal | Angybirds: Also yes to that question. |
| 03:57.48 | Tek0516 | Also Laganicley Shipyards will set up operation nearby to Tremys-Tathil. |
| 03:58.01 | Tek0516 | Probably some overlao. |
| 03:58.07 | Tek0516 | *overlap |
| 03:58.12 | Angrybirds | Alright. Give me the names of the central factories, refineries, manufactories, fabrication yards, etc, and I'll mark the area around them (their zone of operation where they get raw materials) around it. |
| 03:59.28 | DrodoEmpire | I might have a few Drodo corporations set up. |
| 03:59.50 | OfficerJackal | Angrybirds: Alright, and all of these are going to be based in Magador, here we go... |
| 04:00.00 | Tek0516 | Laganicley will probably build a lot of orbital infrastructure. Probably also add a deal with Tremys-Tathil for Harvest-> Refine-> Manufacture. |
| 04:02.16 | Angrybirds | TekDroid: Should I name the central hubs the same as the company names? |
| 04:02.18 | Tek0516 | I can't tell if it's my disk, PC or the 8.1 update but my Spore is messed up. :/ |
| 04:06.35 | Tek0516 | Do you mean the facilities or the planets? |
| 04:06.50 | Angrybirds | Either one. |
| 04:07.54 | Tek0516 | I ask because Laganicley Shipyards is named for the planet is was originally based from. |
| 04:09.53 | Tek0516 | But name the facilities after both, at least. |
| 04:11.00 | Angrybirds | OfficerJackal: Name of the central hub? |
| 04:12.38 | OfficerJackal | AngryBirds: Just name it "Ysira Mining Corporation Central Hub" or something bland like that. XD |
| 04:22.04 | Angrybirds | DrodoEmpire: Your turn |
| 04:22.16 | DrodoEmpire | sits up |
| 04:22.19 | DrodoEmpire | wuh? |
| 04:22.20 | DrodoEmpire | Oh! |
| 04:22.24 | DrodoEmpire | Good good! |
| 04:22.30 | DrodoEmpire | Alright... |
| 04:22.51 | DrodoEmpire | So I'm thinking an Arms corporation will set up; Uiark Defence Systems. |
| 04:23.00 | DrodoEmpire | Mostly dealing in small arms. |
| 04:24.11 | DrodoEmpire | So basically I'm thinking in whichever clan's territory they are operating in they'll make a sort of deal with the local fiefs in and around the major manufactories; |
| 04:25.09 | DrodoEmpire | Basically if the local fiefs give them cheap labour from there peasentry, they'll sell them small arms at a discount price to help in there little wars. |
| 04:25.25 | DrodoEmpire | Where they are located? I'm not so sure yet. |
| 04:25.36 | Angrybirds | ( http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/File:Heer_Sketeevel_Confederation_Map.png This is what we have so far. ) |
| 04:25.53 | Angrybirds | Knight_Alien ^ Check to see what areas are occupied |
| 04:26.16 | Knight_Alien | Oh I see. |
| 04:26.45 | Knight_Alien | Ill place F.E.S. Northern Carteia Tribe |
| 04:27.09 | DrodoEmpire | I'm thinking in Corcyra just in general, and perhaps a smaller influence in Lacrimosae. |
| 04:27.16 | DrodoEmpire | Thinking of actual area names |
| 04:27.21 | Angrybirds | Lacrimosae is off limits. |
| 04:27.24 | DrodoEmpire | Perhaps in all- |
| 04:27.26 | DrodoEmpire | Hmph. |
| 04:27.45 | DrodoEmpire | Now why is that? |
| 04:27.51 | Angrybirds | Sorry, they're the ruling tribe. They kind of don't want to be trampled. |
| 04:28.32 | DrodoEmpire | While I perfectly understand they'd naturally have more integrity and power, I doubt they'd- Forget it. |
| 04:28.47 | DrodoEmpire | Fine, alright, lemme think of a new location, then... |
| 04:28.58 | DrodoEmpire | Alright, |
| 04:29.37 | DrodoEmpire | One larger manufactory/area in the centre of Corcyra, and two smaller ones in Sisca. |
| 04:29.42 | DrodoEmpire | *Siscia |
| 04:30.24 | DrodoEmpire | The ones in Siscia should probably be around the border of Corcyra. |
| 04:30.25 | Angrybirds | Alright, those are open. I'll need names. |
| 04:30.32 | DrodoEmpire | One moment. |
| 04:31.09 | Angrybirds | Knight_Alien : You'd be rather isolated should the natives rise against you. |
| 04:31.37 | Knight_Alien | 0_0 |
| 04:31.41 | DrodoEmpire | I can't think of them at the moment; Too tired. |
| 04:31.46 | DrodoEmpire | What's that for? :P |
| 04:31.54 | Angrybirds | Hm? |
| 04:31.57 | DrodoEmpire | Anyway, I'll have them by tomorrow, yes? |
| 04:32.04 | Angrybirds | Run a random name generator? |
| 04:32.15 | DrodoEmpire | Just in response to Knight Alien's unusual response |
| 04:32.17 | DrodoEmpire | Ehh... |
| 04:32.46 | Knight_Alien | Yes? |
| 04:33.01 | DrodoEmpire | No, no. I was just responding to AB |
| 04:33.25 | Tek0516 | Kinda stuck myself in away from everyone else. XD |
| 04:34.15 | Knight_Alien | Oh,well...Eastern Siscia maybe. |
| 04:35.04 | Angrybirds | Tek0516: Well, you'd have the help of French Quadrantia should bad things happen. Knight-Alien is sticking himself right in the heart of Heer Stekeveel territory where there are no quick hyperlanes or supply routes to help him. |
| 04:35.07 | DrodoEmpire | AB: The one in Corcyra will be the Qetesh Arms Manufactory, |
| 04:35.37 | Tek0516 | Can you add a minor hyperlane connecting to my area? |
| 04:35.59 | Tek0516 | nvm, didn't see it. |
| 04:36.16 | DrodoEmpire | And the two ones in Siscia will be the Reticuli and Adonis Arms manufactory, in any order. |
| 04:36.37 | Angrybirds | Understood. Thanks Drodo! |
| 04:36.46 | DrodoEmpire | Anytime. |
| 04:36.55 | Tek0516 | So what are the French running In there? |
| 04:36.58 | Angrybirds | Do you want me to mark them as belonging to the DQC, or the Drodo Empire proper? |
| 04:37.43 | DrodoEmpire | Empire proper. |
| 04:37.52 | DrodoEmpire | The Corporation is from the Empire./ |
| 04:37.52 | Angrybirds | TekDroid : Some private operations as well as national shipyards for French Quadrantia. |
| 04:38.10 | Tek0516 | Given the Farengeto wormhole I wonder which is relatively farther now, Ezlangei Occupation Zone or Quadrantia Farengeto. |
| 04:39.30 | Angrybirds | Quadrantia Farengeto, definitely. |

| 04:40.26 | Tek0516 | Wondering if I should throw in a Tekar Corporation section too, it is Farengeto's most powerful corporation. |
| 04:40.43 | Tek0516 | But it's mostly a technology company. |
| 04:44.17 | Tek0516 | When you really consider, Tekar Corporation has virtually siezed control of Farengeto. XD They've created a systen used by over half of Farengeto with much of the Republic dependent on it, and it's CEO is Chancellor. XD |
| 04:44.56 | OfficerJackal | Top kek. |
| 04:45.21 | Tek0516 | Totally not intentional. O.o |
| 04:45.33 | OfficerJackal | GHE - wat u doin' mate luk at ur self. corp everwer |
| 04:46.56 | Tek0516 | Of course there is some other factors that make it a little less dystopian in practice. XD |
| 04:50.22 | Tek0516 | Angrybirds: Let's give Tekar Corporation some facilities. Turn the Heer-Sketeevel into space China. :P |
| 04:51.14 | Angrybirds | That's pretty much the whole point, Tek. xD |
| 04:51.36 | Tek0516 | I know. :P |
| 04:52.46 | Angrybirds | Names? |
| 04:53.36 | Tek0516 | Eruran. |
| 04:54.19 | Angrybirds | Location? |
| 04:55.20 | Tek0516 | A bit to the right of Tremys-Tathil? Have them connected by a triangle if possible. |
| 04:57.08 | Tek0516 | I've got to get up fairly early so I should probably get going. |

| 05:44.20 | Liquid_Ink | Are those occupation zones? |
| 05:45.09 | Tybusen | We've essentially created Space China |
| 05:45.21 | Tybusen | and the best part is that Space China is going to use Space China as Space China |
| 05:46.58 | Liquid_Ink | Space China? In what way? |
| 05:47.14 | Angrybirds | Most of the Heer Stekeveel Confederation has no industry. It's just a bunch of warring tribes living in very poor conditions. The central Lacrimosae government has so little authority in certain regions that foreign nations pretty much get away with enforcing their own laws within the regions of space around their factories and manufactories. |
| 05:47.59 | Angrybirds | The labor costs practically nothing and there's next to no government control, which makes it the perfect place to set up industry chains because your raw materials cost next to nothing. |
| 05:49.52 | Liquid_Ink | Heh |
| 05:50.12 | Tybusen | And the best part is that the EAC is going to get in on this as well |
| 05:50.34 | Angrybirds | Hence, the zones you see on the map are the spheres of influence of foreign economic ventures. |
| 05:58.03 | Tybusen | I decided to test for myself the infamous inability of online translators to translate longer passages of text |
| 05:58.39 | Tybusen | This is the Star Trek opening narration, from English to Chinese to Japanese to Russian to Thai to Vietnamese to German and back to English: |
| 05:58.47 | Tybusen | Boundaries final area of the Starship Enterprise Journey. To discover five-year life of their tasks and new civilizations, to explore new worlds. You go where no one previously played it safe. |
| 05:59.49 | DrodoEmpire | hur |
| 06:00.29 | Angrybirds | DrodoEmpire: Would you be willing to sell the HS AA missiles? |
| 06:00.54 | DrodoEmpire | Anti-Aircraft missiles? |
| 06:01.10 | DrodoEmpire | Well they aren't openly for sale on, say the Arms Market, |
| 06:01.14 | DrodoEmpire | But I don't see why not. |
| 06:01.30 | DrodoEmpire | They'll also sell small arms and whatever else on request. |
| 06:02.54 | Angrybirds | The HSC is modernizing its military like crazy, so they'll need a lot of those. |
| 06:03.06 | Angrybirds | They also need a good MBT. |
| 06:03.34 | DrodoEmpire | Alright |
| 06:04.09 | DrodoEmpire | So on top of selling guns to smalltime fiefs and clans, they'll also help supply the national military proper. |
| 06:04.28 | DrodoEmpire | Sounds like a plan. >:3 |
| 06:04.42 | DrodoEmpire | Anyway, yeah they can make use of the Goliath if they so choose. |
| 06:05.24 | Angrybirds | The Lacrimosae would want to regulate what kinds of guns the Drodo sell to the local lords, limiting them to things that don't penetrate armor. |
| 06:05.44 | DrodoEmpire | They do? |
| 06:05.45 | DrodoEmpire | Hmm... |
| 06:05.51 | DrodoEmpire | We'll see about that. :P |
| 06:06.39 | Angrybirds | Not abiding by those regulations would weaken relations with the Lacrimosae state, but there wouldn't be much they could do about it. |
| 06:07.23 | DrodoEmpire | Well the Drodo will either plead to have the regulations loosened, or just ignore it entirely. |
| 06:08.17 | Angrybirds | The Lacrimosae won't bend on that front, and if the Drodo go behind their backs with it, they'll be pretty mad. |
| 06:08.37 | Angrybirds | Any idea what I should name my AA piece? It's based off of the A-1 Chassis... |
| 06:09.00 | DrodoEmpire | I don't know about a name. :P |

| 06:10.08 | DrodoEmpire | Well they can be "mad" all they want. :P Just so long as "non-armour penetrating" means they can keep selling the big sellers; That is assault rifles and other service weapons. |
| 06:10.40 | DrodoEmpire | And perhaps to abide by regulation they can instead use conventional gunpowder instead of the other propellant they usually use. |
| 06:10.53 | DrodoEmpire | So the bullet has less actual force and velocity. |
| 06:10.53 | Angrybirds | Assault rifles would be fine as long as the ammunition doesn't penetrate armor. |
| 06:11.08 | Angrybirds | Yeah, that would placate the Lacrimosae quite a bit. |
| 06:11.24 | Angrybirds | A-1 Marksman is the other, with the four AA missiles. |
| 06:11.33 | DrodoEmpire | I see |
| 06:13.09 | Angrybirds | What does the Goliath look like? |
| 06:14.27 | DrodoEmpire | Hmm... |
| 06:14.32 | DrodoEmpire | I haven't a model. :P |
| 06:15.04 | Angrybirds | I know. I'm making one. |
| 06:15.10 | DrodoEmpire | I'm making it. |
| 06:15.10 | DrodoEmpire | :P |
| 06:15.16 | DrodoEmpire | Or at least I'll try. |
| 06:15.59 | DrodoEmpire | I have already found a good model, to which I can modify. |
| 06:16.23 | DrodoEmpire | I'll also make the Basilisk model while I'm at it. |
| 06:17.17 | Angrybirds | Alright, cool :D |
| 06:23.38 | Angrybirds | Tell me when you're done with it. |
| 06:24.38 | DrodoEmpire | Won't be done until at least tomorrow. |
| 06:24.41 | DrodoEmpire | Its late. :P |

| 06:25.20 | OfficerJackal | Jk. XD |
| 06:35.03 | Angrybirds | OfficerJackal: Do you mind if the HS buy your bus APC? |
| 06:35.24 | OfficerJackal | AngryBirds: Sure! |
| 06:35.30 | OfficerJackal | Angrybirds: They can have it. :D |
| 06:35.42 | Angrybirds | How expensive is it? |
| 06:36.44 | OfficerJackal | Fairly cheap in terms of buying it, although it's maintenance and reliability is only Average. |
| 06:37.02 | Angrybirds | Understood. Since it's cheap, I'll take it. |
| 06:37.10 | Angrybirds | The model is also really nice. |
| 06:37.23 | OfficerJackal | Thanks! :D |

| 12:28.11 | OluapPlayer | hi |
| 12:28.26 | AdmiralPanda | hi monet |
| 12:28.34 | dino | :D |
| 12:29.14 | Monet_ | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Draconid_Imperium/Society#Immortality_Care for anyone who might not have seen last night |
| 12:40.43 | Monet_ | Wormy and i discussed this could be a semi-secret of the IMperium. |
| 12:48.23 | dino | neat |
| 12:52.37 | Monet_ | It could make for some intriguing fiction but I'm not sure about any long-term characters |
| 12:55.38 | Monet_ | Since a lot of them, especially as the years go by, progressively eschew face-to-face contact... |
| 12:59.13 | Monet_ | ANd would die in earthlike gravity. |
| 13:03.43 | Monet_ | I do have an idea however: I've mentioned before that new paragon lines are chosen by an unknown committee |
| 13:07.22 | Monet_ | It makes sense if the committee that makes the decisions is made up of entities that are old enough to observe entire dynasties within their lifetimes. |
| 13:09.49 | ImpyDroid | Hi Mon |
| 13:11.32 | Monet_ | Hi |
| 13:11.48 | ImpyDroid | Monet_: > In order to prevent themselves going mad they fully absorb themselves in the Exonet, becoming vertiable phantoms in its trillions of chatrooms, fora, knowledgebases, streaming sites and entertainment sites. |
| 13:12.04 | ImpyDroid | Now we know the origin of Internet trolls |
| 13:12.58 | Monet_ | Well, it's certainly an inversion to the idea of the internet tough guy |
| 13:13.44 | ImpyDroid | Imagine historical shitstorms on DI forums hur |
| 13:17.59 | Monet_ | That whiny bloke on space Reddit who aggressively compained that the $12bln drama film set during the War of Ages was complete is melancholy twaddle was in fact a 12-tonne dragon born during the time of the Assyrian EMpire |
| 13:18.49 | OluapPlayer | waifu wars on the fictionverse |
| 13:18.51 | OluapPlayer | I bet these exist |
| 13:19.07 | ImpyDroid | hur |
| 13:19.17 | ImpyDroid | Someone calls Iovera his waifu |
| 13:19.28 | ImpyDroid | The entire Divinarium throws a collective bitchfit |
| 13:19.36 | OluapPlayer | That someone is Hachi |
| 13:20.31 | AdmiralPanda | ohgod now I'm imagining someone making a sienen (is that the right word?) anime of Hel'Bre'K |
| 13:20.38 | ImpyDroid | shonen |
| 13:20.45 | AdmiralPanda | I thought shonen was kids |
| 13:21.05 | ImpyDroid | Wait, no, seinen |
| 13:21.08 | Hachiman | Shonen is kids |
| 13:21.09 | ImpyDroid | My mistake |
| 13:21.12 | Hachiman | Seinen is adults |
| 13:21.14 | Hachiman | u stoopid fuk |
| 13:21.24 | AdmiralPanda | hur I was close |
| 13:21.41 | ImpyDroid | I-I-I'm sorry Hachi-sama ;~; |
| 13:22.02 | AdmiralPanda | at this point I'm pretty sure Hachiman is everyone's waifu |
| 13:22.14 | ImpyDroid | Waifu specifically |
| 13:22.25 | ImpyDroid | Because no-one realises he's male hur |
| 13:22.46 | AdmiralPanda | on the internet, nobody realises you're an eldritch horror |
| 13:23.02 | OluapPlayer | >trying to steal my waifu |
| 13:23.04 | OluapPlayer | I will cut you |
| 13:23.25 | AdmiralPanda | I will cut you with a rubber spoon |
| 13:23.39 | AdmiralPanda | I'll make it happen somehow |
| 13:23.48 | OluapPlayer | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Creature:M%C3%A0lh-Thaduorn anyway I got a new page up |
| 13:24.12 | Monet_ | THis reminds me |
| 13:24.35 | Monet_ | COngrats to the wiki for hitting 1400 pages |
| 13:24.40 | ImpyDroid | look fugly hur |
| 13:25.13 | OluapPlayer | You expected it to look pretty |
| 13:25.26 | dino | :D |
| 13:26.44 | Hachiman | And also, I am making a dwarven civilization for Koldenwelt |
| 13:27.14 | Hachiman | The Khà rmurvahan Dwarves / Realm of Khà rmurvahan / Red-Shield Dwarves |
| 13:27.14 | ImpyDroid | nyan |
| 13:27.35 | OluapPlayer | Which's totally not why I published the Mauler page now |
| 13:27.38 | ImpyDroid | What about those Astral Dwarves of ours? |
| 13:27.40 | OluapPlayer | Also gib quot pls |
| 13:27.58 | Hachiman | We can work on Astral Dwarves at some point when I'm done with these, or at least partway done |
| 13:28.12 | OluapPlayer | dum finish your things |
| 13:28.26 | ImpyDroid | No I mean in general; remember them? |
| 13:28.26 | Monet_ | "humid scales" sounds odd to me |
| 13:28.33 | ImpyDroid | Well you do hur |
| 13:28.34 | Hachiman | Yes I do remember them |
| 13:29.31 | Monet_ | OluapPlayer: Just to clarify when you say they have humid scales what image are you trying to present? |
| 13:29.43 | ImpyDroid | Hmmm |
| 13:30.00 | ImpyDroid | I actually wonder if the classical dorf-elf animosity exists in the Fantasyverse |
| 13:30.03 | OluapPlayer | Their scales look like they're wet |
| 13:30.17 | Hachiman | I don't think it would, really |
| 13:30.21 | ImpyDroid | As of now the main enemy of elves are the humans, not the dwarves |
| 13:30.42 | Hachiman | Dwarves are just as commonplace as men and elves |
| 13:30.42 | Monet_ | "moist" or "damp" is a better word. |
| 13:30.50 | Hachiman | http://i.imgur.com/8YWaH75.png?1 Also, first look at my dorfs |
| 13:30.54 | OluapPlayer | right |
| 13:31.04 | Monet_ | Humidity is to do with the amount of water vapour in the air |
| 13:31.11 | dino | nice creature oluap |
| 13:31.13 | dino | looks coolio |
| 13:31.15 | dino | quoted! |
| 13:31.23 | OluapPlayer | All of these words have the same meaning in portuguese |
| 13:31.26 | OluapPlayer | Tahnks dino |
| 13:31.31 | dino | :D |
| 13:31.36 | Monet_ | English is a pain like that lol |
| 13:37.09 | Hachiman | I can imagine that dwarves universally prefer to use magic runes and such rather than become spellcasters |
| 13:39.07 | OluapPlayer | I'd make proper dwarves but I can't create anything new anymore |
| 13:39.12 | OluapPlayer | My creativity has ran dry |
| 13:40.37 | Monet_ | My tip for artist's block is to explore. Look around the internet, visit stuff like museums or galleries |
| 13:41.05 | OluapPlayer | Everything I could do either has already been done or is too cliche to be interesting |
| 13:42.42 | ImpyDroid | Hachiman: They remind me of the Dark Iron dwarves from Warcraft |
| 13:42.54 | Hachiman | Dark Iron? |
| 13:43.49 | Monet_ | One of the drawbacks to going for trendsetting or complete originality: There's always the chance someone on the other side of the world has doen what you have. |
| 13:43.51 | ImpyDroid | Yeah |
| 13:44.08 | Monet_ | But the best solution I really can give is broaden your sampling pool. |
| 13:44.10 | Hachiman | The advantage to that; motivation for you to do it better |
| 13:44.11 | ImpyDroid | http://i439.photobucket.com/albums/qq111/Darcubus/DarkIron_zps7e2504ef.jpg They look like this |
| 13:45.08 | Monet_ | I watch dragon artists whos' anatomical inspiration comes from studying the anatomies of cats and horses. |
| 13:45.10 | ImpyDroid | Basically the Dark Irons are the "evil" dwarves who have betrayed the other dwarf clans and fled south |
| 13:45.27 | OluapPlayer | Either these or I can't find a way to fit the thing I want in fiction |
| 13:45.36 | ImpyDroid | Then they tried to summon a fire elemental to protect them but ended up getting enslaved by him hur |
| 13:46.36 | OluapPlayer | I had an idea for a character who was an incredibly posh guy who went around hunting mythical creatures for the thrill of it, but there's no way for this character to interact with others |
| 13:48.00 | Monet_ | ImpyDroid: Correction, the master of all fire elementals |
| 13:48.16 | ImpyDroid | BY FIRE BE PURGED |
| 13:49.07 | ImpyDroid | OluapPlayer: You could do solo fiction with that guy |
| 13:49.15 | ImpyDroid | Perhaps even narrated by him |
| 13:49.36 | OluapPlayer | That'd be pointless |
| 13:50.00 | Monet_ | We wouldn't have Incognito b that logic. |
| 13:51.09 | OluapPlayer | Incognito was made to interact with other characters at a later point, he isn't purely solo-fiction |
| 13:52.24 | ImpyDroid | Also consider the possibilities for character development |
| 13:52.41 | Monet_ | Yes but if I recall Xho didn't originally make him with the intent to interact with other Dysnomia characters. |
| 13:53.45 | ImpyDroid | This guy *could* start off as an egotistical hunter and then, after working together with the heroes for his own selfish reasons have a change of heart |
| 13:53.50 | ImpyDroid | For example |
| 13:54.18 | ImpyDroid | Also given the description you gave to the guy, this hunter just *screams* to be Klaxxa hur |
| 13:54.30 | OluapPlayer | I wanted him to be either human or Klaxxa |
| 13:54.54 | OluapPlayer | But if my only option is solo fiction then I won't bother |
| 13:55.43 | ImpyDroid | Again, a lot of stories involve hunting; he could join for fame only and then grow a conscience etc |
| 13:56.11 | Monet_ | I've had difficulties logically putting Marcos in fiction because he cannot really handle staying in one place for too long. |
| 13:57.50 | Monet_ | If he did, wherever he settled would eventually become overrun with Exos |
| 14:01.38 | AdmiralPanda | OluapPlayer: Why not spend some time teaming up with Bastion? He does it for fun, Bastion does it for a cause, there'd be some interesting dialogue there as well as the action |
| 14:02.05 | OluapPlayer | Teaming up doing what |
| 14:02.14 | OluapPlayer | Their goals don't fit |
| 14:02.22 | AdmiralPanda | hunting mythical creatures that happen to be evil |
| 14:02.31 | AdmiralPanda | I'm sure they'd bump into each other at some point |
| 14:02.34 | OluapPlayer | This hunter doesn't hunt evil creatures |
| 14:02.37 | OluapPlayer | He hunts wildlife |
| 14:02.48 | AdmiralPanda | eh, I tried |
| 14:03.04 | OluapPlayer | Hydras, basilisks, cockatrices, this is what I mean by mythical creatures |
| 14:03.24 | AdmiralPanda | a lot of those are, if not evil, certainly harmful to mortals |
| 14:03.29 | AdmiralPanda | that's reason enough for Bastion to get involved |
| 14:03.57 | OluapPlayer | I guess you have a poit |
| 14:03.59 | OluapPlayer | point* |
| 14:04.16 | AdmiralPanda | also this reminds me, how many dark magic/lunar-themed organisations are there in the fantasyverse? |
| 14:04.21 | Monet_ | If it helps on the interaction side, does he sell body parts or hides of his kills? |
| 14:04.50 | OluapPlayer | He probably does, I imagine he just likes keeping the heads as trophies |
| 14:05.14 | Monet_ | In a fantasy setting even the richest need a livelihood. |
| 14:05.20 | OluapPlayer | It's a bit difficult getting fantasy races for him to hunt considering most of them are sapient in the fantasyverse |
| 14:06.05 | Monet_ | Even the classic "rich noble who doesn't do anything" has a piece of the country generating him money via taxes. |
| 14:07.41 | Monet_ | MAybe he's some kind of bounty hunter? |
| 14:09.05 | OluapPlayer | I don't see that being fitting unless the bounty is some kind of fantastic creature |
| 14:09.16 | OluapPlayer | He isn't interested in fighting other people |
| 14:09.22 | Monet_ | That's how Geralt of Rivia from the Witcher series gets by |
| 14:10.41 | Monet_ | Because we're in a fantasy setting, I'm sure bounty hunters aren't restricted to hunting humans or elves. |
| 14:11.25 | Hachiman | *or dwarves hur |
| 14:12.15 | Monet_ | You say most of the mythical creatures he'd hunt are sapient, how's to say the job issuers have to care about that? |
| 14:12.22 | Monet_ | who's* |
| 14:12.41 | ImpyDroid | Hm I had a thought |
| 14:12.49 | OluapPlayer | I said he hunts wildlife, he has no interest in fighting other sapients |
| 14:13.02 | OluapPlayer | The more this goes the more I can see how flawed this idea is |
| 14:13.08 | ImpyDroid | Maybe there could be an orc/dwarf rivalry in the Fantasyverse? |
| 14:13.29 | ImpyDroid | Since the elves are already taken by humans |
| 14:13.34 | OluapPlayer | Isn't human/elf hate already enough |
| 14:14.03 | Monet_ | [15:05] <@OluapPlayer> It's a bit difficult getting fantasy races for him to hunt considering most of them are sapient in the fantasyverse >. these were your words nd I was trying to find a loophole |
| 14:15.16 | OluapPlayer | It's difficult because most of them areall sapient, and he hunts wildlife |
| 14:15.16 | OluapPlayer | *are |
| 14:17.51 | Hachiman | I imagine that if the dwarves do have grudges, it's unlikely it's universal for all dwarves |
| 14:17.51 | Hachiman | One dwarf nation's hate isn't anothers |
| 14:18.17 | Monet_ | OluapPlayer: If he's posh and a human/Klaxxa could it be possible that he *thinks* stuff like hydras, basilisks and cockatrice are effectively beasts? |
| 14:18.43 | OluapPlayer | And they are |
| 14:18.51 | OluapPlayer | I mentioned these because they are not sapient |
| 14:19.06 | Monet_ | Okay...different examples |
| 14:19.09 | Monet_ | Gnolls. |
| 14:19.55 | OluapPlayer | I don't know if it'd be worth the trouble |
| 14:20.07 | Monet_ | Solitary draonoggr? |
| 14:21.01 | OluapPlayer | I mean I don't think this character is worth all this trouble |
| 14:21.11 | OluapPlayer | I shouldn't have mentioned it |
| 14:22.19 | Monet_ | Yeah i've given up as well. |
| 14:22.44 | Monet_ | Its a solid idea, the problem I see is you don't want a solofic. |
| 14:23.19 | OluapPlayer | The idea is inheritly flawed |
| 14:23.44 | Monet_ | I won't bother arguing. |
| 14:25.51 | ImpyDroid | OluapPlayer: To the "isn't elf/human hate enough" |
| 14:26.18 | ImpyDroid | What's wrong with different races having prejudices against each other? It's realistic |
| 14:26.20 | Monet_ | ImpyDroid: No. |
| 14:26.29 | ImpyDroid | Uh? |
| 14:26.36 | ImpyDroid | What do you mean, Mon |
| 14:26.48 | OluapPlayer | It limits us and makes interaction difficult |

| 14:26.54 | TekDroid | Hello! |
| 14:26.57 | ImpyDroid | Hi |
| 14:27.29 | ImpyDroid | OluapPlayer: I don't see why |
| 14:27.54 | ImpyDroid | Race-wide prejudice is one thing, individual characters interacting is another |
| 14:27.59 | OluapPlayer | Nevermind |
| 14:28.02 | OluapPlayer | Jusr forget it |
| 14:28.32 | Hachiman | ImpyDroid: Koldenwelt doesn't need to get any more hate-y and racist |
| 14:28.42 | Hachiman | We already have a big enough divide with humans and elves |
| 14:29.02 | ImpyDroid | rite |
| 14:29.21 | Monet_ | Wierd how we don't get these arguments in the fictionverse. |
| 14:29.47 | ImpyDroid | Fictionverse is a more modern, tolerant place :P |
| 14:30.15 | Monet_ | I mean no one's complainging about "too much racism" with the 1st gig |
| 14:30.37 | Monet_ | We have plenty of examples. |
| 14:31.49 | TekDroid | So my Spore is messed up. :/ |
| 14:32.27 | TekDroid | A bunch of the UI has been replaced with white boxes. |
| 14:32.45 | Monet_ | TekDroid: Try restarting the game |
| 14:33.12 | TekDroid | I have. Many times. First noticed it last night. |
| 14:33.29 | TekDroid | I think the game might be missing files. :/ |
| 14:33.46 | Monet_ | I'm going to drop the topic we've been on in the last hour. I'm feeling too much negativity. |
| 14:34.00 | Monet_ | TekDroid: Do you have the Steam version of the disk version of Spore? |
| 14:34.29 | AdmiralPanda | ImpyDroid: the difference between say, Golarion's racism (Pathfinder world) and generic elves hate dwarves is that it's the product of thousands of years of philosophical difference, which is actually realistic, rather than just slotting in racism wherever possible |
| 14:34.34 | TekDroid | Yeah. Thinking I should deauthorize and reinstall. |
| 14:35.06 | ImpyDroid | AdmiralPanda: Ya |
| 14:35.11 | AdmiralPanda | the real reason we don't have much racism in the gigaquadrant is A) factions have rarely known each other long enough to form such prejudices, and B) there are rarely that significant a cultural or philosophical difference |
| 14:37.12 | TekDroid | Hm, the graphics are fine on base Spore... |
| 14:40.16 | AdmiralPanda | omfg, a guy and a girl wanted to have a LotR themed wedding, next minute their best men/bridesmaids all dress up as ring wraiths, the minister dressed up as Sauron, and all the guests dressed up as Rohirim, Men of Gondor and Elves |
| 14:40.29 | Hachiman | olol |
| 14:40.46 | AdmiralPanda | this almost makes me want to have a Commoragh-themed wedding if it ever happens, but it might get confused for a BDSM orgy |
| 14:41.16 | ImpyDroid | I heard of people having a Nazi-themed wedding |
| 14:41.16 | Hachiman | I wonder if marriage will ever become obsolete in the future |
| 14:41.19 | AdmiralPanda | oh god I just imagined a motor-trike being converted into a Venom |
| 14:41.24 | MonetSemi | Understandable. Among the Dark Elves there'd be no difference. |
| 14:41.29 | ImpyDroid | Hachiman: Doubt it |
| 14:41.42 | AdmiralPanda | Hachiman: "Gay marriage violates the sanctity of my fifth marriage" |
| 14:41.53 | ImpyDroid | It's too ancient and ... biological a concept |
| 14:42.04 | AdmiralPanda | ImpyDroid: It's not a biological concept |
| 14:42.05 | Hachiman | Marriage isn't biological |
| 14:42.06 | MonetSemi | "I pronounce you husband and wife, you may now rape the bride" |
| 14:42.12 | AdmiralPanda | in fact it's the exact opposite of our biological inclination |
| 14:42.22 | Hachiman | Marriage is a religious ceremony |
| 14:42.25 | ImpyDroid | I am speaking metaphorically |
| 14:42.28 | Hachiman | Which is why I'll probably never have one |
| 14:42.35 | ImpyDroid | Hachiman: In our country it is civil |
| 14:42.52 | AdmiralPanda | he means it has religious origin |
| 14:42.56 | MonetSemi | There are people who get married by buying a certificate at a local courthouse |
| 14:43.21 | TekDroid | http://img3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20140729144157/spore/images/9/9b/Spore_white_UI.jpg This is just a sample of my issue. :/ |
| 14:43.31 | MonetSemi | And I will shove a barbed stick up the arse of whoever accuses it of being a Christian idea! |
| 14:43.39 | AdmiralPanda | I for one think it'd be amazing to live in a supportive pansexual community |
| 14:43.43 | ImpyDroid | AdmiralPanda: Not exactly, long-term relationships are natural |
| 14:43.50 | AdmiralPanda | ImpyDroid: Not for humans |
| 14:44.04 | Hachiman | Humans never used to be long-term relationship creatures |
| 14:44.14 | ImpyDroid | Evolution-wise, they help raising a child |
| 14:44.16 | AdmiralPanda | Our entire branch of the family tree is all about the harems man |
| 14:44.21 | AdmiralPanda | also untrue |
| 14:44.30 | AdmiralPanda | why have one woman raise a child when the whole tribe can? |
| 14:44.35 | Hachiman | ^ |
| 14:44.45 | *** join/#sporewiki Jepardi (b24b970e@gateway/web/freenode/ip.178.75.151.14) |
| 14:44.46 | Jepardi | Hi |
| 14:45.00 | ImpyDroid | Not in the modern world hur |
| 14:45.02 | AdmiralPanda | marriage is a purely societal construct which actually harms the evolutionary advancement of the species as a whole |
| 14:45.03 | ImpyDroid | Hi |
| 14:45.08 | *** join/#sporewiki Sporeraptor (543933b0@gateway/web/freenode/ip.84.57.51.176) |
| 14:45.09 | Sporeraptor | hi |
| 14:45.29 | MonetSemi | I think marriage will stay around because its too ancient a concept to erase. |
| 14:45.48 | AdmiralPanda | personally I don't think I'd ever get married, even if there was one person I loved above all others. It doesn't mean I love them any less than a married couple |
| 14:45.53 | MonetSemi | PLus it is also has romantic connotations |
| 14:46.04 | Hachiman | AdmiralPanda: Exactly, I feel the same way |
| 14:46.08 | AdmiralPanda | I'd rather be free to love as many people as I can |
| 14:46.53 | MonetSemi | I'd say one argument for the concept of marriage is that women aren't okay with their man sleeping with other women. |
| 14:47.09 | AdmiralPanda | Again I'd point that to society |
| 14:47.10 | MonetSemi | Even when a pair is at the boyfroiend-girlfiriend stage |
| 14:47.24 | ImpyDroid | Will I be called backwards if I say I can't imagine my life without marriage? |
| 14:47.35 | AdmiralPanda | As I said, go one step up the evolutionary tree and we have harems |
| 14:47.51 | AdmiralPanda | ImpyDroid: If you want to then go for it, it's just not for me |
| 14:48.08 | ImpyDroid | Maybe it's the cultural differences |
| 14:48.12 | MonetSemi | AdmiralPanda: I'd say it has some biological roots. Basically, if you're a woman and your boyfriend bangs another woman, you'd want to know why he's banging her and not you. |
| 14:48.22 | ImpyDroid | I'm Korean-Russian after all |
| 14:48.38 | ImpyDroid | Or is it "Korean Russian"? |
| 14:48.40 | MonetSemi | There's jealousy within the concept of an affair. |
| 14:48.58 | AdmiralPanda | MonetSemi: As I said, go back a step and we have situations where all the women care about is being with the best male |
| 14:48.59 | ImpyDroid | Or the fact that you wish to preserve your genes |
| 14:49.24 | MonetSemi | AdmiralPanda: Wasn't that back when women had fewer privelages? |
| 14:49.45 | Hachiman | Keep in mind that women cheat just as much as men do |
| 14:50.07 | AdmiralPanda | that was back when society didn't exist, and even if we look at societal examples, in polygamous cultures you have jealousy-free relationships where multiple women are betrothed to one man |
| 14:50.24 | Hachiman | And vice versa, I hope :D |
| 14:50.26 | MonetSemi | Like Saudi-Arabia? |
| 14:50.35 | AdmiralPanda | all across asia really |
| 14:50.52 | AdmiralPanda | there's one guy in the Phillipines who practically has a whole town related to him because he has 63 wives |
| 14:50.55 | MonetSemi | And the middle-east has a reputation for putting women down culturally. |
| 14:51.12 | MonetSemi | The phillipines. |
| 14:51.35 | MonetSemi | I can't help noticing that these places - the Phillipines and the middle-east have a largely Muslim population. |
| 14:51.48 | Hachiman | I might make marriage null for dwarves so they're allowed to fuck whoever they want how many times they want, both male and female |
| 14:52.08 | ImpyDroid | That doesn't fit the dwarven theme for me hur |
| 14:52.10 | AdmiralPanda | Aw, and I was just about to have an excuse to call you racist :P |
| 14:52.12 | ImpyDroid | Elves maybe |
| 14:52.26 | Hachiman | ImpyDroid: I hate the narrow view of dwarven stereotypes |
| 14:52.36 | Hachiman | I want to make them at least *somewhat* different |
| 14:52.52 | ImpyDroid | True, dwarves are rarely unique in fiction |
| 14:53.02 | MonetSemi | It may sound racist but Islam does have a track record for reduced rights for women. |
| 14:53.06 | ImpyDroid | Maybe it's because of their collectivism? |
| 14:53.19 | AdmiralPanda | ImpyDroid: Have you ever seen turkish-themed dwarves? One of the best deviances I've ever seen in a D&D setting |
| 14:53.33 | ImpyDroid | MonetSemi: Well first of all, Islam has followers from all races :P |
| 14:53.35 | AdmiralPanda | Monet: So does Christianity and Judaism. |
| 14:53.48 | ImpyDroid | So, it's religious discrimination, not racism |
| 14:53.51 | AdmiralPanda | So does all of human history really |
| 14:54.00 | ImpyDroid | Save for the Basque |
| 14:54.06 | ImpyDroid | And a few other peoples |
| 14:54.40 | MonetSemi | What i'm seeing here is that polyamous beliefs often coincide with faiths that treat women as less than men. |
| 14:55.04 | AdmiralPanda | Furthermore, so does our evolutionary history- Homo Erectus (cue Hachi laughing) congregated in small tribes dominated by the strongest male |
| 14:55.18 | Hachiman | Hehehe |
| 14:55.19 | Hachiman | Homo |
| 14:55.25 | ImpyDroid | like u |
| 14:55.37 | AdmiralPanda | Almost every culture I've heard of except pagan lunar worship has at some point had a stance that viewed women as inferior to men |
| 14:55.49 | Hachiman | Buddhism? |
| 14:55.52 | AdmiralPanda | Hachiman: And here I thought you were going to make a joke about the name Erectus :P |
| 14:55.55 | MonetSemi | Okay so in terms of evolution there's nothing wrong with men fucking as many women as they want. |
| 14:55.59 | AdmiralPanda | I did say almost :P |
| 14:56.01 | ImpyDroid | Buddhism originayed in India |
| 14:56.18 | ImpyDroid | And I think there was some sexism there |
| 14:56.29 | Hachiman | Also Spartan culture allowed women to do whatever they wanted I think |
| 14:56.35 | AdmiralPanda | ^ |
| 14:56.40 | ImpyDroid | Except fighting hur |
| 14:56.42 | Hachiman | Homosexuality was allowed as well I believe |
| 14:56.50 | AdmiralPanda | Spartan women fought too |
| 14:56.51 | ImpyDroid | It was a NORM |
| 14:57.02 | MonetSemi | However if evolutinon was the perfect source for social ideas then our world leaders should all be the strongest male. |
| 14:57.08 | AdmiralPanda | What mattered with homosexuality in greece was who was the dominant one |
| 14:57.14 | ImpyDroid | Like, if yoy were a true man you had to fuck a few to prove it hur |
| 14:58.09 | AdmiralPanda | Monet: "Strongest" or "Fittest" in the darwinian sense has multiple meanings, and the only reason we don't still have that system is everyone decided that the public was the best judge of character |
| 14:59.02 | AdmiralPanda | Right up until the invention of Democracy we still more or less followed the model of the most fitting individual leading society, really |
| 14:59.02 | MonetSemi | AdmiralPanda: In terms of a tribal society, basically the tribe gathered together and drove the local alpha out of the village. |
| 14:59.26 | AdmiralPanda | Precisely, and people wonder why we have regression :P |
| 14:59.50 | MonetSemi | Define regression? |
| 15:00.00 | ImpyDroid | The problem is, power tends to separate people feom reality |
| 15:00.23 | AdmiralPanda | Just to use Australia as an example, the level of progress we've been making has fallen off ridiculously since John Howard was in office |
| 15:00.24 | Hachiman | So really, primitive and tribal culture is actually largely idealistic for modern needs? |
| 15:00.31 | MonetSemi | If you mean physical regression, notice how modern industry favours intelligence over strength. |
| 15:01.12 | AdmiralPanda | John was chosen because people knew he was good at his job, his usurper Kevin Rudd was a popular twat who had no clue what he was doing |
| 15:01.31 | ImpyDroid | Ochlocracy, ladies and gentlemen |
| 15:01.50 | ImpyDroid | Then again, an authoritarian rule rarely changes anything |
| 15:02.07 | ImpyDroid | Look at my country :P |
| 15:02.16 | ImpyDroid | *no an |
| 15:02.27 | AdmiralPanda | I'm reminded of our earlier discussion about Star Trek's horrible handling of warrior races |
| 15:02.43 | AdmiralPanda | the whole Klingon Promotion thing is actually a brilliant social element, when you think about it |
| 15:03.13 | AdmiralPanda | it forces the lower orders to constantly improve, and the higher orders to be constantly vigilant, otherwise they're doomed |
| 15:03.26 | MonetSemi | Reminds me of school tbh |
| 15:03.51 | AdmiralPanda | Same thing in Commoragh, you can't afford to take one step out of line or you're dead for good- you always have to be on top of the competition |
| 15:04.37 | MonetSemi | But...both those societies are on a knife-edge. |
| 15:04.50 | MonetSemi | Even if you were careful as you could be, you'd still die |
| 15:05.23 | AdmiralPanda | Even so, you'll either achieve your maximum potential before you die, or you'll fade away before you cause any harm |
| 15:08.18 | MonetSemi | I think that humans might be too numerous t orely on tribal or pack systems. |
| 15:08.51 | AdmiralPanda | You seem to have a tendency to use the word "tribal" to describe anything meritocratic |
| 15:09.56 | MonetSemi | One of the advantages that alphas in native villages had is that everyone knew him. In our modern world we can live our entire lives without ever meeting our leaders. Our knowledge of them is filtered down a long chain of people |
| 15:09.56 | AdmiralPanda | The main barrier that I can see to humans really adopting such a system is we tend to be lazy |
| 15:10.59 | MonetSemi | Yes modern leaders still perform PR stunts but there will *still* be a good potion of the population who never do meet their leaders. |
| 15:11.25 | AdmiralPanda | Whether or not you know the leader is irrelevant to their ability to lead, honestly |
| 15:11.46 | AdmiralPanda | Churchill was a brilliant leader, well deserving of his office, but I doubt many people actually knew him |
| 15:12.09 | MonetSemi | Well, here's an example: George W. Bush. Everyone knows him as a retarded fuckwit right? |
| 15:12.25 | AdmiralPanda | And he's a wonderful example of popularity winning out over ability |
| 15:12.28 | AdmiralPanda | but go on |
| 15:12.46 | MonetSemi | He happens to be a retarded fuckwit who has flown for the USAF. |
| 15:12.59 | MonetSemi | If media is to be believed |
| 15:13.31 | ImpyDroid | That's problem with oyr education systems hur |
| 15:13.32 | AdmiralPanda | His ability to fly for the USAF doesn't have anything to do with his political ability. |
| 15:14.00 | AdmiralPanda | You're kinda proving my own point here, in that the worst politicians are elected for things other than their political ability :P |
| 15:14.22 | MonetSemi | Retards don't fly jet fighters. |
| 15:14.26 | ImpyDroid | We could revive the mandarin system of Imperial China, which was quite close to a meritocracy |
| 15:14.32 | ImpyDroid | But again, CORRUPTION |
| 15:14.43 | ImpyDroid | *imperial mandarin examination |
| 15:14.50 | AdmiralPanda | This makes me wonder, what would have happened if, once Hitler rebuilt Germany, it was handed over to a moderate who could maintain it while they found someone stable who could improve it further |
| 15:15.20 | AdmiralPanda | that's what Australia used to do, the liberals would improve the country, then the conservatives would maintain it while building up more resources for the liberals to improve it again |
| 15:15.23 | ImpyDroid | AdmiralPanda: Highly unlikely; Hitler essentially created an economy that had to be fed by war |
| 15:16.04 | AdmiralPanda | ImpyDroid: He did a fair bit before the war started |
| 15:16.30 | ImpyDroid | Ya, but again, the resources for further rebuilding did not come out of nowhere |
| 15:16.40 | AdmiralPanda | Even better, if he was kept as the face of Germany and did what he did really well, which is motivate people, while the smart people did the running |
| 15:16.47 | MonetSemi | My point with Bush is he's smarter than popular opinion suggets. |
| 15:17.08 | AdmiralPanda | MonetSemi: You really didn't make that point clear at all |
| 15:17.13 | ImpyDroid | He was still a warmonger |
| 15:17.28 | ImpyDroid | Ten times worse than Putin, even |
| 15:18.02 | AdmiralPanda | ImpyDroid: He did a lot of terrible things, but he's also responsible for a great many good things. |
| 15:18.17 | ImpyDroid | I am referring to Bush |
| 15:19.06 | AdmiralPanda | oh right |
| 15:19.24 | MonetSemi | Eh, He *was* paired with Cheney during his adminsitration. |
| 15:19.32 | AdmiralPanda | Not American so I won't comment, I only know he botched the handling of a disaster |
| 15:19.45 | ImpyDroid | Hitler was decent, yeah, but he was incompetent when it came to actually controlling an army |
| 15:20.36 | ImpyDroid | Had he been not so obsessed over maintaining his control over everything, yeah he'd be quite a good leader; his main problem was the convoluted hierarchy he left |
| 15:20.38 | AdmiralPanda | ^ |
| 15:20.47 | MonetSemi | This is my point - Because Bush was distant to mose of us )and most of us would never talk to him in person) we have to rely on media opinion, general opinion of Bush was worped because the USA, the human population, was too large for everyone to give a persona laccount. |
| 15:21.02 | ImpyDroid | Wow, people actually agree with me on something |
| 15:21.16 | ImpyDroid | Nyan â~â |
| 15:21.24 | AdmiralPanda | This is my point, if they kept Hitler as the face but had the actual smart people running things, heil ze master race! |
| 15:21.49 | MonetSemi | AdmiralPanda: Wolfenstein The New Order. |
| 15:21.55 | MonetSemi | Does prettymuch that |
| 15:21.59 | AdmiralPanda | Precisely |
| 15:22.23 | ImpyDroid | Funny thing is for all my dislike of Hitler I'd probably be somewhat of an elite in my country by Hitler's standards hur |
| 15:22.59 | AdmiralPanda | the big problem with Hitler's plan is what happens when the Jews run out |
| 15:23.13 | AdmiralPanda | that's why he needed someone smart backing him up |
| 15:23.21 | AdmiralPanda | the brains behind the mouth so to speak |
| 15:23.22 | MonetSemi | I'm 2/3 of the way though the story and so far mention of Hitler (or "our glorious leader" as the game presents him as) has been nonexistent outside of PR events and speeches. |
| 15:23.52 | ImpyDroid | That, and dumping the brains of your nation into concentration camps was pretty stupid |
| 15:24.07 | Hachiman | The brains and a large majority of your national braun |
| 15:24.07 | MonetSemi | Considering that this game is a continuation of the entire series I don't even know if it IS hitler the newspapers talk about |
| 15:24.16 | AdmiralPanda | ImpyDroid: Ever hear of Pol Pot's agrarian reforms? |
| 15:24.29 | AdmiralPanda | MonetSemi: Canonically Hitler is dead at this point, twice in fact |
| 15:24.31 | ImpyDroid | AdmiralPanda: Why of couese |
| 15:24.39 | ImpyDroid | Pol Pot is just an idiot hur |
| 15:24.45 | AdmiralPanda | Imp: Now THAT is an example of general retardation |
| 15:24.48 | MonetSemi | AdmiralPanda: Heil Mecha-Hitler |
| 15:25.10 | AdmiralPanda | I have to be honest, I would vote really hard for Mecha-John Howard |
| 15:25.32 | ImpyDroid | I mean a great deal of Germany's scientists and artists were Jewish |
| 15:25.40 | Hachiman | Fuck you all, Mecha-Roosevelt or Mecha-George Washington |
| 15:25.51 | ImpyDroid | Mecha-Putin |
| 15:25.56 | MonetSemi | Hachiman: They're skeletons though |
| 15:26.10 | AdmiralPanda | On a completely random offshoot, I just remembered one of the best quotes ever |
| 15:26.12 | Hachiman | All hail our spooky leaders of Mankind |
| 15:26.20 | MonetSemi | I thought I heard somewhere that concentration camps were prototyped in Germany but Hitler opposed the idea of packing Germans in such places. |
| 15:26.34 | AdmiralPanda | Albert Einstein was asked "How does it feel to be the smartest man alive?" His response was "I don't know, you'll have to go ask Nicola Tesla" |
| 15:26.42 | ImpyDroid | Putin was actually once asked by a Russian guy about whether or not Russia would utilise mechas for protecting ussian borders |
| 15:26.45 | Hachiman | olol |
| 15:26.57 | Hachiman | Everybody loves Tesla |
| 15:26.58 | ImpyDroid | He answered that it is not impossible |
| 15:27.20 | AdmiralPanda | ImpyDroid: There was a petition to pour a significant amount of our defence funding into development of cybernetic war suits for national defence here in Australia |
| 15:27.55 | AdmiralPanda | Hachiman: Tesla wanted to make electricity free to the world. What's not to love? |
| 15:27.55 | MonetSemi | If we're opting for ressurected mecha-leaders of mankind then I vote for mecha-Suleiman. |
| 15:28.07 | AdmiralPanda | Monet: I don't, he was a scapegoat leader |
| 15:28.22 | MonetSemi | Eh? |
| 15:28.32 | MonetSemi | I thought he reformed the Ottoman Empire. |
| 15:28.34 | AdmiralPanda | The reason he's famous is because he wanted to surrender, so the Europeans painted him as the hero |
| 15:28.45 | AdmiralPanda | otherwise we'd associate Baybars with that particular campaign |
| 15:29.11 | ImpyDroid | Like Gorbachev? |
| 15:29.23 | AdmiralPanda | does not know this Gorbachev |
| 15:29.33 | ImpyDroid | He is considered to be a hero by you, right? |
| 15:29.42 | ImpyDroid | AdmiralPanda: The last ruler of the USSR |
| 15:29.47 | MonetSemi | Actually on second thoughts. Fuck it Immortal leaders are flawed by their longevity. |
| 15:29.50 | AdmiralPanda | yeah never heard of him |
| 15:30.15 | MonetSemi | Washington and Roosevelt were great men...for their time. |
| 15:30.18 | ImpyDroid | Mecha-Putin is still superior |
| 15:30.26 | Hachiman | This is largely why the Zazane want to out Tyraz |
| 15:30.31 | ImpyDroid | Powered by Ukrainian pig fat |
| 15:30.45 | Hachiman | It's not healthy for a nation of warriors to be led by a demonic, immortal midget |
| 15:30.55 | AdmiralPanda | The only Russian hero of the USSR I know of is a girl called Emily who picked up a rifle to protect her school, and ended up a famous sniper |
| 15:31.09 | MonetSemi | ImpyDroid: Reminds me of the story of Prince Charles unveling a personal car that runs on wine. |
| 15:31.25 | AdmiralPanda | and I only know about her because I went through a "snipers are cool" phase |
| 15:31.34 | Hachiman | But |
| 15:31.37 | Hachiman | Snipers are cool |
| 15:31.41 | Hachiman | As exampled by Kalcedia :P |
| 15:31.45 | AdmiralPanda | Ok, let me rephrase |
| 15:31.45 | MonetSemi | White Death ftw |
| 15:31.49 | Hachiman | Aww yiss |
| 15:31.53 | Hachiman | White Death <3 |
| 15:31.53 | AdmiralPanda | Snipers were to me what katanas are to cultists |
| 15:32.09 | AdmiralPanda | wut is White Death? |
| 15:32.24 | Hachiman | You DON'T know who White Death is and you went through a "snipers are cool" phase? |
| 15:32.24 | ImpyDroid | Finnish sniper dude |
| 15:32.31 | ImpyDroid | Killed lots of our dudes |
| 15:32.53 | MonetSemi | SOme Norweigan who, during the Russian invasion of Finland took up a hunting rifle, an SMG and camped out in the Finnish woods in winter and killed over 500 RUssians |
| 15:32.59 | MonetSemi | Some FIn* |
| 15:33.05 | ImpyDroid | Hachiman: Kalcedia is a *Little* White Death |
| 15:33.12 | Hachiman | Ohgod |
| 15:33.45 | Hachiman | White Death killed over 500 Russian soldiers by himself, including counter snipers, with little more than a hunting rifle, an SMG and a basic scope |
| 15:33.50 | AdmiralPanda | I knew who he was but I didn't know his title |
| 15:33.55 | MonetSemi | Russia went as far to carpet-bomb the forest he was hiding in and he *still* continued ot kill before finally being shot in the face |
| 15:34.19 | Hachiman | He lived through that as well |
| 15:34.38 | ImpyDroid | Frankly though, our failures there were mostly because Mr. Jugashvili was a retard |
| 15:34.43 | Hachiman | He was knocked unconscious for about a week I think then he got up and found out the invasion was over |
| 15:35.16 | ImpyDroid | And sent uprepared troops from the FUCKING CENTRAL ASIA to Finland |
| 15:35.18 | AdmiralPanda | this reminds me of a character in Monster Blood Tattoo, he got gutted by a monster, proceeded to murder that monster, then got branded with a tattoo that granted him said monster's regenerative powers, enabling him to survive |
| 15:36.02 | ImpyDroid | He also got scarred heavily and had one of his facial bones replaced by a bone from the leg |
| 15:36.27 | MonetSemi | Even if he was a retard, he was a damn scary one |
| 15:36.47 | Hachiman | You calling White Death a tard? |
| 15:37.00 | ImpyDroid | I am calling our leader at the time a tard |
| 15:37.14 | ImpyDroid | As I said, Mr. Jugashvili |
| 15:37.25 | MonetSemi | I can't remember White Death's real name sorry |
| 15:37.33 | Hachiman | Simo Haiha |
| 15:37.38 | Hachiman | I think that's how you spell it |
| 15:37.39 | MonetSemi | Thank you |
| 15:37.50 | AdmiralPanda | it has some fancy finnish additions to it, but that's about right |
| 15:38.05 | ImpyDroid | They're called diacritics |
| 15:38.38 | ImpyDroid | For all the accomplishments of the Finnish, their greatest resource was our incompetence |
| 15:38.41 | Hachiman | I wonder if modern human nations in the Sporewikiverse are prone to cloning/recreating the deadliest and most efficient soldiers in history and having them fight on the frontlines for them |
| 15:38.43 | MonetSemi | Häyhä |
| 15:39.06 | ImpyDroid | Hachiman: Legion of Hachis |
| 15:39.10 | Hachiman | hue |
| 15:39.23 | AdmiralPanda | 0.0 Hel'Bre'K has a metric fuckton of weapons on him (I just decided to put some thought into it) |
| 15:39.51 | MonetSemi | Hachiman: That's what House Khaxvis did with Oniron Voxis |
| 15:40.14 | AdmiralPanda | two falcata, two longswords, a greatsword, two parrying blades, two punch daggers, four shortswords, twenty knives balanced for throwing, and over three hundred individual blades making up his cloak |
| 15:40.25 | MonetSemi | And there was talk during ice-age of cloning him from a recovered wing in Ice Age |
| 15:40.45 | Hachiman | I wonder about the state of the samurai in the modern Yamato Intersolar Commune; perhaps they're still the Emperor's/Prime Minister's honour guard and are both advanced and highly-competent melee fighters as well as starship admirals |
| 15:40.49 | AdmiralPanda | if he has his shield on him, he then has two more shortswords, and the bladed edge of his shield itself |
| 15:41.12 | MonetSemi | AdmiralPnda: Surely he doesn't carry all of that at once. |
| 15:41.25 | AdmiralPanda | Monet: He does, I figured out the mounting for it al |
| 15:41.34 | MonetSemi | That's a lot of weight though |
| 15:41.53 | AdmiralPanda | He is a Fordanta wearing a musculature-enhancing bodysuit |
| 15:41.56 | MonetSemi | Reminds me of all these shooters that allow your character to carry every type of weaon in the game on their person |
| 15:42.44 | AdmiralPanda | Hachiman: The way I see things, they'd have kept the katana as a symbol of office, but like their predecessors their ranged weapon would be their primary weapon |
| 15:42.49 | MonetSemi | Aside fro mweight, there's also manouverability. |
| 15:42.56 | Hachiman | Aye makes sense |
| 15:43.36 | Hachiman | I can imagine YIC samurai being born through extensive eugenics practices and gene-mods |
| 15:43.59 | MonetSemi | One slight issue with cloning or recreating soldiers I think is adapting them to the present. |
| 15:44.11 | Hachiman | Much like how ancient samurai were above peasants because of nobility |
| 15:44.37 | MonetSemi | When Captain America was unfrozen, the common image is he steps out into the modern world and his mind caves in. |
| 15:45.13 | AdmiralPanda | Monet: Actually, only the longswords and parrying blades could interfere with mobility, everything else is either flush with his body plates or mounted on an antigravity platform hovering off his back |
| 15:47.06 | ImpyDroid | If YSE has samurai, EAC should have hwarang hur |
| 15:49.42 | AdmiralPanda | "If a man should lie with another man he should be stoned" - Clearly the bible is telling us to legalise Gay Marriage and Marijuana at the same time |

| 15:51.10 | ImpyDroid | You dsserve an internet |
| 15:51.18 | AdmiralPanda | But I already have the internet |
| 15:51.25 | AdmiralPanda | It looks pretty on the mantlepiece |
| 15:52.24 | AdmiralPanda | ohgod guys, I'm going to be silent for the next five minutes or so, some guy just decided to challenge me to an argument about the rights of gays to marry. This is gonna be good |
| 15:52.51 | ImpyDroid | You're lucky |
| 15:53.15 | ImpyDroid | I get into arguments about the rights of gays to *live* |
| 15:53.19 | ImpyDroid | Welcome to Russia |
| 15:54.44 | AdmiralPanda | nevermind, he gave up |
| 15:54.51 | Hachiman | rite finally finished outfitting dorfs |
| 15:55.05 | AdmiralPanda | He quoted Leviticus and I turned it around, strapped it to a chainsaw and shoved it up his arse :P |
| 15:55.34 | ImpyDroid | Leviticus has lots of stuff |
| 15:55.56 | ImpyDroid | None of which are usually followed by modern Christians *save for this one* |
| 15:56.02 | MonetSemi | If God was infallible and all-knowing he would have realised that "stoned" will one day mean "to get high on drugs" |
| 15:56.42 | Hachiman | http://i.imgur.com/b3nWMfn.png?1 How does this look? |
| 15:57.31 | MonetSemi | That's some pretty nice armour, loving the beard. |
| 15:57.43 | ImpyDroid | Looks cool |
| 15:58.26 | MonetSemi | His neck seems a bit long for "stout" but then again perhaps thse Dwarves are not the kind who are so broad that you could roll one down the hill like a log. |
| 15:58.49 | Hachiman | Yeah these Dwarves aren't just legs, arms and beard |
| 15:58.56 | Hachiman | They do have necks hur |
| 15:59.41 | MonetSemi | Don't forget belly. |
| 15:59.53 | Hachiman | Aye |
| 16:00.31 | Hachiman | These Dwarves are intended to be muscular or athletic rather than beer belly |
| 16:01.16 | MonetSemi | Well. |
| 16:01.21 | MonetSemi | "althletic" yeah |
| 16:01.33 | MonetSemi | But don't forget proper strongmen have both muscle *and* gut |
| 16:01.49 | Hachiman | True |
| 16:01.53 | Hachiman | But then again |
| 16:01.58 | Hachiman | Artistic license :P |
| 16:03.21 | MonetSemi | Yeah but part of the cirticism with artistic lisence comes from misinformation on the artist's part. |
| 16:03.38 | MonetSemi | MAybe these dwarves are better at running and acrobatics than heavy lifting? |
| 16:03.41 | AdmiralPanda | Now THIS http://static4.gamespot.com/uploads/screen_kubrick/1179/11799911/2514808-braum.jpg is a man you can stand behind |
| 16:04.16 | MonetSemi | To hide lol |
| 16:04.24 | Hachiman | Aye, reliability has run in the Armstrong family for generations |
| 16:04.38 | AdmiralPanda | That be Braum hur |
| 16:04.42 | AdmiralPanda | you should stand behind him |
| 16:04.59 | MonetSemi | Armstrong? |
| 16:05.08 | AdmiralPanda | which reminds me, I want to expy Bayonetta |
| 16:05.13 | AdmiralPanda | sooooo badly |
| 16:05.50 | MonetSemi | AdmiralPanda: Don't forget her outfit hairstyle then. |
| 16:06.17 | AdmiralPanda | don't think I'm gonna do the wicked weave thing, but I might have her more powerful attacks result in her showing a bit of skin |
| 16:07.33 | AdmiralPanda | That or go for a mix of Vayne, Lucian and Bayonetta |
| 16:07.47 | AdmiralPanda | actually mostly Lucian and Bayonetta |
| 16:07.52 | MonetSemi | My understanding of the common Jock image is that the physique is a mix of athleticism and brute strength. |
| 16:08.04 | Hachiman | I wonder what the height of Koldenwelt Dwarves would be |
| 16:08.11 | AdmiralPanda | have the guns be the magical part, and her just being really athletic and flirty |
| 16:08.13 | Hachiman | I'm thinking 5ft or around that should be maximum |
| 16:08.32 | ImpyDroid | How much is that in meters? |
| 16:08.34 | AdmiralPanda | I'm gonna go expand the Order of the Sable Rose page |
| 16:08.41 | ImpyDroid | stoopid imperial system |
| 16:08.46 | MonetSemi | In American football you need powerful sprinter's legs to bound across the field but also considerable upper body strength to break out of pileups and barge other players out of your way. |
| 16:08.48 | AdmiralPanda | also, do you guys think I should make a Damsel character first or a Knight character? |
| 16:08.56 | MonetSemi | ImpyDroid: 1.5m |

| 16:09.38 | ImpyDroid | Hm guys |
| 16:09.47 | MonetSemi | I was going to joke and say our dwarves should be different and be 3 metres tall |
| 16:09.53 | ImpyDroid | How is dialogue usually marked in English literature? |
| 16:10.08 | Hachiman | MonetSemi: dats a giant u dum |
| 16:10.18 | MonetSemi | SO what if it is. |
| 16:10.19 | ImpyDroid | In Russian it is "- "text", I said" |
| 16:10.27 | AdmiralPanda | Monet: Fun fact, the Dwarves in Nirn (Elder Scrolls world) were actually really tall, they just got the name from Giants |
| 16:10.28 | Hachiman | Well |
| 16:10.37 | ImpyDroid | Admittedly TES had fairly large dorfs |
| 16:10.38 | Hachiman | Koldenwelt doesn't have very many giant species really |
| 16:10.41 | MonetSemi | AdmiralPanda: I know ,they were elves. |
| 16:10.42 | ImpyDroid | ...goddammit ninjad |
| 16:11.04 | ImpyDroid | Hachiman: Hm, perhaps we could make one then? |
| 16:11.08 | Hachiman | Eh fuck it, I'll say that 1.5m is around the maximum height a dorf can achieve |
| 16:11.13 | ImpyDroid | We haven't worked together much recently |
| 16:11.20 | ImpyDroid | Yah it works |
| 16:11.32 | Hachiman | ImpyDroid: When I've reduced the amount of work I have already I can |
| 16:11.46 | AdmiralPanda | Hachiman: We should totally make a fiction of Hachi meeting this Damsel |
| 16:12.02 | Hachiman | AdmiralPanda: I wouldn't be opposed but Hachi has commitments :P |
| 16:12.13 | AdmiralPanda | Hachi - I WANNA PUT WEINER Damsel - Wait I didn't cast the spell yet |

| 16:12.47 | ImpyDroid | We don't really work with each other or even communicate much nowadays |
| 16:12.55 | ImpyDroid | What happened? |
| 16:13.00 | Hachiman | Not sure entirely |
| 16:13.07 | AdmiralPanda | well I was talking about the Fey Damsels in the Order of the Sable Rose |
| 16:13.46 | ImpyDroid | I'd like to do fic together with you but you almost never want to |
| 16:14.04 | Hachiman | It's not that I don't want to, I rarely have time or energy for it |
| 16:14.04 | ImpyDroid | Is it my fault? |
| 16:14.20 | Hachiman | No |
| 16:15.18 | ImpyDroid | (I mean to your first comment, not the second one; I hadn't recieved the last one by the time I posted it) |
| 16:15.44 | Hachiman | I've just been largely caught up with a string of things recently, it's not your fault |

| 16:16.08 | Hachiman | hur* |
| 16:16.25 | ImpyDroid | Hachiman: ...300 years? |
| 16:17.04 | ImpyDroid | AdmiralPanda: Speaking of mildly NSFW |
| 16:18.21 | ImpyDroid | When I was on StarCon 2014 with Alyona and we saw the cosplayers we entertained the thought of cosplayinf ourselves next year, and Alyona jokingly stated that "cosplaying Jinx wouldn't be nice" or something |
| 16:18.51 | ImpyDroid | What's the catch? I don't play LoL so I don't know what Jinx's costume is |
| 16:19.25 | MonetSemi | Its fanservice-y |

| 17:46.38 | MonetSemi | I discussed with a couple of others the other day that the Imperium's sub-citize nsystem could be used as a way to keep some form of cheap labour within the Imperium (due to the potential conclusion that "there is no such thing as a perfect machine" |

| 18:19.04 | MonetSemi | Although...if you're after fantasy dress I can see the "modern" issue |
| 18:19.29 | MonetSemi | The victorians practically invented the tuxedo |
| 18:19.40 | ImpyDroid | Yeah, the problem is I need something both Koldenweltian and Victorian |
| 18:20.35 | MonetSemi | Maybe somehow combine Georgian and Victorian dress? (I'll have to think how to do that) |
| 18:20.42 | DrodoEmpire | Just putting in my two cents, perhaps compromise on something like early 1800's/mid 1700's? |
| 18:20.57 | DrodoEmpire | If its an issue trying to blend Victorian and Koldenweltian |

| 18:29.15 | MonetSemi | Aye. |
| 18:29.35 | MonetSemi | Oliver Cromwell became infamous for his attempt to ban Christmas. |
| 18:30.27 | OfficerJackal | Lol. |
| 18:30.35 | AdmiralPanda | toy manufacturers would never let that pass in today's world |
| 18:30.56 | AdmiralPanda | hell, the retail sector as a whole would shut that shit down in like five minutes |
| 18:31.45 | ImpyDroid | rite |
| 18:32.28 | ImpyDroid | Considering the fact that I took the "Lord Protector" name from Cromwell, I might as well borrow some designs from his period |
| 18:32.32 | MonetSemi | Actualyl there was one Lord Protector after Cromwell, who ruled England, Scotland and Wales for about ..eight months |
| 18:32.40 | ImpyDroid | *title |
| 18:32.50 | ImpyDroid | MonetSemi: His son, right? |
| 18:33.22 | MonetSemi | Yeah |
| 18:34.05 | MonetSemi | I guess it goes to show, England has a long history of preferring its monarchs and hating Catholics. |
| 18:34.33 | Xho | http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=293137522 Spooky scary skeletons |
| 18:34.49 | MonetSemi | Since one of Charles I's offences was marrying a French Catholic lady |
| 18:36.18 | Technodroid | I don't know Spore lore very well, is there any character in the GA expansion pack or something who talks about the captain going off on their adventures? |
| 18:36.51 | Xho | As if you care about Spore lore hur |
| 18:37.22 | Technodroid | I don't :o |
| 18:37.30 | Xho | well y did u ask queston |
| 18:37.41 | Technodroid | cuz template |
| 18:37.53 | Xho | For what |
| 18:38.21 | MonetSemi | I think you do meet a couple of ace space captains who tell you that one day your character could be as awesome as them. |
| 18:38.23 | Technodroid | awway |
| 18:39.00 | MonetSemi | But the general backstory I think is your captain is space captain because they were shosen by your natino for some reason. |
| 18:39.16 | Xho | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lmAQhsBzAQ0 Nu, Psi and Kithworto |
| 18:39.26 | MonetSemi | Where you fly the *only warship your civilisation has* |
| 18:39.33 | DrodoEmpire | hur |
| 18:39.41 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah, that pretty absurd. XD |
| 18:39.41 | Technodroid | mhm |
| 18:39.46 | Technodroid | there must be a name for one |
| 18:39.52 | AdmiralPanda | Correction: The only spaceship capable of interstellar travel |
| 18:40.11 | AdmiralPanda | actually even that isn't true |
| 18:40.12 | AdmiralPanda | trade ships |
| 18:40.23 | AdmiralPanda | so yeah, spore civs are retarded |
| 18:40.37 | DrodoEmpire | At least the player's. :P |
| 18:40.42 | MonetSemi | What does make it egregious is if you take control of another save, suddenly the faction you were playing has a warfleet |
| 18:41.04 | DrodoEmpire | Seeing as others seem to have an armada under there control. |
| 18:42.14 | AdmiralPanda | of course my actual nation has no war fleets, I just pay people to attack other people for me |
| 18:46.56 | ImpyDroid | I attacked civilisations until fhey surrendered and then allied them |
| 18:47.59 | MonetSemi | I have an idea for a section: Popular TV shows and films across the 1st gig |
| 18:48.39 | Technodroid | there must be at least someone in that game that says something relevant to "leaving" |
| 18:49.43 | Xho | I doubt it |
| 18:49.45 | MonetSemi | As far as I know the only people who send you off int othe universe is Mission Control on your homeworld. |
| 18:49.49 | Xho | Spore isn't one for vocabulary |
| 18:50.09 | Technodroid | yeah, it's not one for story either |
| 18:50.15 | Technodroid | hm, Mission Control could work |
| 18:50.20 | MonetSemi | Its probably to give room for the player. |
| 18:50.23 | Technodroid | I'll make up a generic sentence and say Spore did it |
| 18:50.49 | MonetSemi | The player has room ot decide why their character was chosen, what motives they had to sign up to the space program etc. |
| 18:50.51 | Xho | dat not gud |
| 18:51.06 | Xho | Just leave it as it is if you can't make a Spore reference out of it |
| 18:51.43 | ImpyDroid | Technodroid: What is that for? |
| 18:51.52 | Technodroid | i've said |
| 18:51.54 | Technodroid | for a template |
| 18:51.58 | Cyrannian | Maybe you could use a Grox saying that it'll be back once it finishes destroying a civilisation. |
| 18:52.07 | Technodroid | oh, sure |

| 18:56.37 | MonetSemi | Ambiguous isn't helpful |

| 20:33.13 | Angrybirds | You might need to reinstall. |
| 20:33.21 | TekDroid | Yeah. :/ |
| 20:34.55 | Angrybirds | Save the Spore folder, though. |

| 20:35.48 | Xho | Jepardi: Tonari no...Executioner Smough |
| 20:36.52 | TekDroid | Given the context my best guess would be that the 8.1 update screwed something up. |

| 20:38.48 | TekDroid | can't remember where his authorization code is |
| 20:43.20 | MonetSemi | Odere indeed |

| 20:57.46 | MonetSemi | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_Model_Army is it me or bould England be credited for the return of the professional fighting force? |
| 20:57.51 | MonetSemi | could* |
| 20:58.04 | MonetSemi | And the return of the standing national army? |
| 21:03.18 | TekDroid | MonetSemi: That's the impression I got from history class. |
| 21:04.11 | MonetSemi | Call me nationalistic but I'd say that's another reason Britain is called "Great" Britain |
| 21:04.38 | TekDroid | It did conquer a quarter of the planet. |
| 21:05.58 | MonetSemi | And the UK is a member of the UN Security Council. |
| 21:06.11 | TekDroid | Britain didn't gain its reputation and power for nothing. |
| 21:06.49 | TekDroid | And a second member of the security council was a British colony. |
| 21:08.45 | MonetSemi | The empire may be gone, but its legacy will continue on for centuries to come |
| 21:09.15 | TekDroid | According to XKCD the sun still hasn't set on the British Empire though. :P |
| 21:10.49 | MonetSemi | The Empire didn't really collapse, it merely changed int othe Commonwealth. |

| 21:19.10 | Hachiman | Or rather, a physical manifestation of their pride |
| 21:19.51 | Hachiman | Hairless Khà rmurvahan are considered personally shamed and are ridiculed |

| 22:34.11 | Technodroid | if USO can be involved it will be on the DCP side |
| 22:34.27 | Technodroid | they love conflict after all |
| 22:35.01 | drom | Aaaaand then, DCP is reduced into ashes after the conflict. |
| 22:35.47 | Patriot868 | Because technology, disgruntlment with the agc, and because they feel its not right to gang up on dcp |
| 22:36.15 | Technodroid | given that the DCP have a strng advantage technologically, it's probably fine ganging up on them |
| 22:36.30 | Technodroid | that is also why I am concerned that adding USO to the DCP side might be unfair |
| 22:37.27 | Patriot868 | well so far the dcp is alone |
| 22:38.13 | drom | http://imgur.com/gallery/wXYwG |
| 22:38.50 | MonetSemi | And the DCP has the potential to deal with the Orion League on its own. |
| 22:38.56 | Patriot868 | also, the hegemony has no reason to hate the dcp |
| 22:39.06 | Technodroid | it might be an opportunity to properly introduce the new retconned USO |
| 22:39.17 | Technodroid | to clear their name from the old one which I burnt in hell |

| 22:43.33 | MonetSemi | I suppose this is reasonable. Although might want to watch the upcoming flashpoints |
