00:10.54 | TekDroid | Hello |
00:15.01 | AdmiralPanda | TekDroid: Some time we really should play Space Engineers again |
00:15.15 | TekDroid | Indeed. |
00:15.24 | Hachiman | AdmiralPanda: Due to complications involving the workplace and schedule, Oluap is only going to be able to run games on Sunday from now on |
00:15.31 | Hachiman | And hai |
00:15.47 | Hachiman | Oh and also means he will only be able to play games on Sunday as well |
00:16.03 | AdmiralPanda | Hachiman: That is only a problem if it means we start later than usual |
00:16.13 | Hachiman | Sunday is a free day for him |
00:16.20 | Hachiman | Which really means we can start earlier |
00:16.26 | Hachiman | Since he does not work Sunday |
00:17.14 | AdmiralPanda | excellent |

20:17.55 | Wormy_ | wtf? |
20:18.01 | DrodoEmpire | shrugs |
20:18.03 | OfficerJackal | Now it is a candidate for deletion. |
20:18.04 | OfficerJackal | LOL> |
20:18.07 | DrodoEmpire | Already earmarked it for deletion |
20:18.44 | DrodoEmpire | Probably just some bad troll or something |
20:19.26 | Ghel | The source of the problem is http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Whatlinkshere/Content:Grimbolsaurians |
20:19.26 | Wormy_ | I kind of want to move it and keep it, its funny in a flawed sort of way |
20:19.53 | Ghel | Presumably, the editor found a red link to the page and thought it would be a good idea to make it blue. |
20:20.37 | DrodoEmpire | Sounds like a reasonable explanation |
20:21.12 | Wormy_ | Part of me wants to delete, but there is a voice saying I should assume good faith and there is nothing actually wrong with it |
20:21.30 | Wormy_ | Perhaps I will ask the user to change the name a little bit |
20:21.45 | DrodoEmpire | Isn't it part of a nonexistent namespace? |
20:21.56 | DrodoEmpire | I've never seen "Content" as a namespace before |
20:22.00 | Wormy_ | I can be be either very soft or very evil depending on the mood |
20:22.15 | Wormy_ | "Content" used to be the old fiction space |
20:22.22 | DrodoEmpire | Right. :P |
20:22.33 | Wormy_ | The user probably created the page when he/she saw a red link |
20:22.47 | Ghel | And even older, before Spore was released, was the "Concept" namespace. |
20:22.49 | Wormy_ | As Ghewlae said |
20:23.11 | DrodoEmpire | Right |
20:24.28 | Wormy_ | Writing a message to him |
20:26.18 | Ghel | You should probably also get rid of those links unless you want it to happen again. |
20:29.39 | Technobliterator | Wormy_, do you still want http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/System:Chilius_system ? |
20:29.53 | Technobliterator | I've removed the links other than that page, btw |
20:31.03 | Wormy_ | Yes, I'll keep it |
20:31.12 | Wormy_ | Maybe add some real content |
20:44.58 | Wormy_ | I might redesign the Chilius system |
20:45.16 | AdmiralPanda | "Sage, you stole my displays!" "What, no I didn't- I've been running around the base babbling in German for the last ten minutes!" |
20:46.38 | Wormy_ | I have always been fascinated with world-building out of realism since I was a young child. I think between 11-12 I used to write sketch books about planetary science (my truest interest perhaps) and I would invent extra-solar systens |
20:47.09 | Wormy_ | I created one (still rather fanciful mind you) system which I named Mirenton |
20:47.16 | DrodoEmpire | Ah |
20:47.39 | Wormy_ | The SporeWiki fiction shares its name but not its likeness |
20:47.55 | DrodoEmpire | I've always been interested, at different times or levels, in science, science fiction, and history; Probably explains a bit about the Drodo, anyhow. XD |
20:49.18 | AdmiralPanda | my science fiction interest has always been in transhumanism more than anything else |
20:49.26 | Wormy_ | Some of my fiction is inspired by childhood stories and battles I used to play out with action figures and model vehicles and spa\ceships |
20:50.15 | Wormy_ | I don't think I ever stopped playing in a way, thanks to Spore and SporeWiki |
20:51.17 | AdmiralPanda | which reminds me, I really should get that transhumanism story started |

21:31.06 | odell | One can dream. |
21:41.37 | Xho | Well I've given the Shiarchon a currency |
21:41.44 | Xho | Called the 'Adravaelic nomismata' |
21:43.24 | Ghel | I imagine the Shiarchon are the sort of organised people who would take a detailed census every now and again. Athough they may not care so much about counting some of their slave races. |
21:44.28 | Xho | I'd imagine the national census would take place in stages |
21:44.47 | Xho | Since Praetors are given lordships over a portion of Abyssus I'd imagine that the Imperator would task them with doing it |
21:45.05 | Xho | Imagining is good |

21:46.49 | Xho | The population of the empire ranges between 20 to 45 million so the Praetors would have their work cut out for them |
21:46.59 | Xho | That is counting the slave populace |
21:48.47 | Xho | For the term 'Adravaelic nomismata', nomismata is Latin for 'coinage' and Adravaelic I guess would be the demonym for a resident of the Legion |
21:48.56 | Xho | Though it would more than likely refer to just the Shiarchon |
21:49.07 | DrodoEmpire | That's pretty high for what is really the middle ages/early renaissance era, don't you think? |
21:49.35 | Xho | The Roman Empire had a population of almost 60 million by 30 BC |
21:49.41 | DrodoEmpire | Well, I guess the largest RL nations at that time had similar populations |
21:50.00 | DrodoEmpire | Ming China had something around that number; More maybe |
21:50.06 | DrodoEmpire | Nevermind then yeah |
21:50.43 | Xho | The Shiarchon being the second stage of a ~290,000 year old civilisation, well if they didn't have a multi-million population they'd have been doing something wrong |
21:51.09 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah by the early 1400's Ming had some 65 million |
21:51.16 | DrodoEmpire | Eh true |
21:53.22 | Xho | There is around 50 - 100 individual races under the Shiarchon's rule as well |
21:53.51 | DrodoEmpire | Right |
21:53.54 | Xho | 15,000 years a civilisation they'd have likely conquered and demolished many civilisations over that course |
21:54.27 | Xho | Or usually in the Shiarchon's case, enticing them with dark sparkly magic |
21:55.09 | Ghel | If you're going to entice someone with dark magic, you'd better make it sparkly. |
21:56.34 | Xho | I've also taken to calling the Shiarchon 'Novum Imperium Dryadalum' in Old Tongue as a means of mocking the Sovereignty of Dryada |
21:56.41 | Xho | Or their means |
21:57.00 | Xho | You know I'm not too sure why they're called a Legion |
21:57.07 | Xho | They're an empire by most accounts |
21:57.26 | Xho | Well I suppose their name in Dark Elvish covers that |
21:58.32 | Wormy_ | http://imgur.com/gallery/CjYA6 |
21:58.35 | Ghel | It might be a name used mostly by their enemies, or those who consider them to be a threat. |
21:58.47 | Xho | Sounds like it would be |
21:59.01 | Xho | So Archipelagan is Spanish right |
21:59.14 | Ghel | With the added irony that, if I'm reading it right, their using the name "Shiarchon" means that they're calling the Legion "enlightened". |
21:59.33 | Ghel | Yes, Archipelagan is Spanish. |
21:59.52 | Ghel | Well, I think I wrote one word of it, and that was "Archipieleganos". |
22:00.36 | Ghel | Archipielaganos* |
22:00.38 | Xho | Makes sense to me |
22:01.32 | Ghel | Unfortunately, I never really learnt Spanish. I wanted to do it alongside French (which I did take) at GCSE, but there weren't enough other people in my year at my school who did, so it was cancelled. |
22:01.39 | Ghel | I ended up doing Geography instead. |
22:01.56 | Xho | ew |
22:02.28 | Xho | I guess the 'Legion of Shiarchon' in Archipelagan would be 'Imperio de Los Ilustrados' if taken literally |
22:02.47 | Xho | Or 'Imperio ilustrado' |
22:03.34 | Xho | I have no clue how I'd make 'Shiarchon' a Spanish word |
22:04.31 | Ghel | Yeah. Since the Archipelagans probably had little contact with the Shiarchon before the War for the Eye, calling them "enlightened" might not be particularly unusual. |
22:07.33 | Ghel | They may not even have known that the Shiarchon are Caligaduro-worshippers. For that matter, since they didn't colonise the Archipelago until after the end of the Adamantine Age, they wouldn't even have had any idea about Caligaduro being underneath their homes. |
22:09.05 | Xho | "Dios mÃo." - Archipelagan, 1 BNA |
22:14.02 | Wormy_ | I think I switch between both. In STO, one minute I'm in Trek fantasy land and the other I get really technical in space combat http://9gag.com/gag/areEPvK?ref=fbp |
22:15.57 | Wormy_ | no.3 lol http://9gag.com/gag/ae0jrOW?ref=fsidebar |
22:16.58 | Xho | Well |
22:17.58 | Xho | At least she managed to get the idea that dolphins and squirrels are in the same class of animals |
22:18.02 | Xho | Just not reptiles |
22:19.42 | DrodoEmpire | Maybe there's more of an argument for eugenics than I thought. |
22:23.59 | Xho | "We need a new plague" |

23:17.17 | Monet | Hello |
23:19.06 | Monet | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction%3ADraconid_Imperium/Organisations would anyoen be interested in adign to this list? |
23:19.11 | Monet | adding* |
23:19.27 | Xho | I dunno how I could |
23:20.28 | Monet | The bulk of the list is intended to be corporations based within |
23:21.31 | *** join/#sporewiki Liquid_Ink (79d016b9@gateway/web/freenode/ip.121.208.22.185) |
23:22.24 | Monet | Finance firms, manufacturers, PMCs, energy firms, trading groups, that sort of thing. |
23:23.17 | Xho | I'd gather it would only be DI organisations though |
23:23.28 | Xho | If I put a Kicathian organisation in there it doesn't seem like it would fit |
23:24.21 | Monet | The defining point is that the comapnies listed have corporate headquarters in Imperial space |
23:25.03 | Monet | Not all these organisations were founded and built up by Draconis, like Valle Astroengineering which I think I had predating the Kroogvon's provincehood. |
23:25.12 | Xho | Right |
23:26.21 | Xho | https://fbcdn-sphotos-c-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xfp1/v/t1.0-9/1965063_1322744207772766_2971588964295171544_n.jpg?oh=a73da3bdb27e99cdd2677ebbd201511c&oe=5567D122&__gda__=1431455915_c959633a986d644c3fbcf956a1aff092 |
23:29.35 | Monet | Perhaps a company or two from the Kicathian Enclave? |
23:31.30 | Xho | Perhaps |
23:32.53 | Monet | Doesn't have to be structly Kicathian though unless that's what they're like; Utopis was founded by a Draocnis but it's current CEo is a Terratrix |
23:34.12 | Xho | I can't remember what we agreed with that |
23:34.26 | Xho | Was the Enclave overseen by the Draconis or the Kicath |
23:34.48 | Monet | Kicath |
23:35.38 | Xho | Hm that would definitely place a lot of unrest between whether the Empire or Remnant have custody of it |
23:35.51 | *** join/#sporewiki GD12 (427591e7@gateway/web/freenode/ip.66.117.145.231) |
23:36.02 | GD12 | Hi |
23:36.02 | Monet | Wait by "overseen" do you mean who has claim over the enclave? |
23:36.08 | Xho | Yeah |
23:36.22 | Monet | Let me double-check |
23:37.55 | Monet | I think the Imperium still oversees them |
23:38.04 | Monet | I was thinking of changing the Provincial Council to be populated by alien reps rather than Draconis reps. |
23:38.20 | Monet | But the Imperium would still place Draconis as advisors. |
23:38.50 | Xho | Must be difficult socially |
23:39.14 | DrodoEmpire | I might be interested in adding a Drodo company |
23:39.46 | Xho | It's a bit like the Chinatown of the Draconid Imperium |
23:39.51 | GD12 | what are we talking about? |
23:40.10 | Monet | GD12: I asked if anyone would be interested in creating a DI-based company |
23:40.35 | Xho | You go into a massive neighbourhood full of things you can't read |
23:40.40 | GD12 | Hachiman would probably volunteer a Gigaquadrantic wide brothel |
23:40.49 | GD12 | *start |
23:40.59 | TekPC | Maybe I'll add a Farengeto company. |
23:40.59 | Xho | Though I'd imagine being in Andromeda the Kicath would have multilingual notices |
23:41.07 | GD12 | iirc don't we assume everyone has universal translators for logged languages/ |
23:41.12 | Monet | Xho: Draconis - Fuk dis Y can't u use Dracid. |
23:41.28 | Xho | GD12: Kicathian is an annoying language for translators |
23:41.35 | TekPC | Dracnid(TM) |
23:41.37 | GD12 | automated translators |
23:41.48 | Xho | Even for automated translators |
23:41.59 | GD12 | hao dis |
23:42.13 | TekPC | live translated Kicathian convseration - *word followed by several seconds of silence* |
23:42.24 | GD12 | lol |
23:42.53 | GD12 | i mean the nsa or cia is actually working on algorithms for sarcasm detection |
23:43.02 | GD12 | so it can't be too difficult to translate something with lots of samples |
23:43.18 | Xho | In most cases Kicathian almost steps into the territory where you need a particular set of vocal apparatus to speak it |
23:43.43 | Xho | I'd imagine translators would have certain dialects of Kicathian covered |
23:44.17 | Xho | Borealis Kicathian most likely since it has the least amount of inflections |
23:44.19 | GD12 | but the semantics of it could be understood right? |
23:44.31 | Xho | More or less |
23:44.41 | GD12 | if there is no problem with the semantics then i think a universal translator wouldn't have a problem |
23:44.53 | GD12 | given that a universal translator would probably have the mechanisms to replicate any set of vocal chords |
23:44.54 | Xho | The most complicated end of Kicathian has 344 individual sounds |
23:44.55 | GD12 | for the listener |
23:45.18 | GD12 | dat a lot |
23:45.38 | Xho | I think I theorised that Kicathian could potentially emulate any language in the universe given a certain parameter |
23:45.47 | Xho | In terms of pronunciation |
23:46.14 | GD12 | i think the variation of sounds one can make is more than 344 depending on what the definition of a distinct sound is |
23:46.26 | GD12 | but yeah 344 is definitely a lot |
23:46.34 | GD12 | Xhodoctospeak - 344 ^ 344 344 times |
23:46.41 | GD12 | distinct sounds |
23:47.09 | Xho | 344 overall, 326 in the Milky Way dialect compared to the Borealis dialect's 66 |
23:47.40 | DrodoEmpire | Drodo - ima just learn the borealis dialect bruh |
23:47.40 | TekPC | Xhodoctospeak - sounds defined by 0.00001 Hz in 0.0000001s intervals |
23:47.52 | GD12 | lol yeah |
23:48.25 | Xho | There's also grammatical structure, writing systems, honorific systems and having to discern synonyms as well |
23:48.30 | TekPC | Or whatever the quantum wavelengths and times are. :P |
23:48.52 | GD12 | i c |
23:49.04 | GD12 | TekPC : Planck time intervals |
23:49.08 | Xho | The Kicathian writing system is basically the same way how Japanese works |
23:49.13 | GD12 | ngh thats complex |
23:49.15 | Xho | Alien kana and alien kanji |
23:49.17 | GD12 | conjugating all dat shit |
23:49.23 | TekPC | I know the units, I just forget the sizes. :P |
23:49.33 | GD12 | kek |
23:49.36 | GD12 | wait |
23:49.38 | GD12 | TekPC? |
23:49.40 | Monet | GD12: I think this is why Xho said translators may havep roblems |
23:49.41 | GD12 | not TekDroid? |
23:50.02 | Monet | Good thing AGC translators translate by reading brain patterns. |
23:50.03 | TekPC | My phone died. :P |
23:50.24 | GD12 | Yeah that probably works, I'm just an automated anything nut |
23:50.31 | TekPC | I got to my first of two consecutive lectures and had 7% battery. XD |
23:50.31 | Xho | Also the Kicath also tend to have a varying grammatical structure and their synonym count is generally considered impractical to a human |
23:51.01 | Xho | What I usually put down on the wiki is the most basic form of Kicathian |
23:51.04 | GD12 | how many words to the kicath have for kill lol |
23:51.15 | DrodoEmpire | Drodo - ayy too many words lmao |

23:52.04 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
23:52.05 | DrodoEmpire | :3 |
23:52.26 | Xho | I'd reason it to saying the Kicath have a highly advanced part of the brain that deals with language processing |
23:52.26 | GD12 | i don't sadly |
23:52.27 | TekPC | I should upload those fiction planet images I took the other day. >.> |
23:52.27 | GD12 | what is it |
23:52.43 | Monet | For those wishing to add comapnies the |
23:52.51 | TekPC | It's a free procedurally generated Space simulator. |
23:52.53 | DrodoEmpire | http://en.spaceengine.org/ |
23:52.58 | DrodoEmpire | ayy space engine lmao |
23:53.11 | GD12 | I see you've been on 4chan DrodoEmpire |
23:53.14 | GD12 | hur |
23:53.35 | Xho | There have been attempts by Kicath to form a 'basic form' of Kicathian in order for foreigners to speak and have translated |
23:53.37 | DrodoEmpire | Nah. XD Just had that on the brain recently |
23:53.40 | DrodoEmpire | Dunno why |
23:53.47 | OfficerJackal | ayy lmao |
23:53.50 | DrodoEmpire | ayy lmao |
23:53.55 | Xho | For the most part one exists but Kicath don't usually adhere to it when speaking |
23:54.10 | Xho | Simply put it, most Kicath are dicks |
23:54.21 | TekPC | Even has the warped space. (I forget the science-y term. XD) |
23:54.21 | GD12 | Linguistic Anarchists |
23:54.39 | GD12 | wow i c |
23:54.46 | Monet | For those wishing to add comapnies the page, stuff I'd reccomend to include I would say are: Summary of cmapny's specialisation, it's extent, where it came from and a brief history-summary thing. And if you like, current reputation. |
23:55.04 | TekPC | http://i.imgur.com/BboFtK6.jpg This is one I took from a neutron star the other day. |
23:55.22 | DrodoEmpire | ^ Yeah SE's graphics are beautiful |
23:55.28 | Monet | TekPC: Gravitational lensing |
23:55.30 | GD12 | noice |
23:55.47 | Xho | So the basic solution to the Kicathian language problem is that the Kicath learn the languages of others |
23:56.04 | GD12 | Physics is tuff |
23:56.20 | GD12 | I don't have to take any physics though wierdly |
23:56.28 | TekPC | http://i.imgur.com/GGT9I5O.jpg This is a planet orbiting a star inside a nebula. (the planet is supposed to be dark in image, part of fiction plans. :P) |
23:56.38 | GD12 | is it free? |
23:56.43 | DrodoEmpire | Yep |
23:56.43 | TekPC | is sitting in a fiction lecture. >.> |
23:56.49 | TekPC | Totally free. :D |
23:56.51 | DrodoEmpire | Completely free |
23:56.55 | TekPC | *physics lecture |
23:56.58 | TekPC | >.> |
23:56.59 | DrodoEmpire | olol |
23:57.11 | Xho | There's also cryptic orthography the Kicath use in private governmental situations and can be punishable by death for trying to interpret it |
23:57.16 | TekPC | damnit guys. :P |
23:57.22 | DrodoEmpire | ayy |
23:57.36 | GD12 | ficiton lecture |
23:57.50 | GD12 | lmao |
23:57.53 | Xho | Agents tend to have the characters of said language inscribed on their armour as an identity process |
23:58.04 | TekPC | is totally paying attention |
23:58.07 | GD12 | not ompletely implausible TekPC |
23:58.17 | GD12 | My school offers student run seminars on the analysis of pornography |
23:58.22 | TekPC | O.o |
23:58.30 | Xho | But yeah Kicathian language = not a computer's cup of tea |
23:58.41 | Wormy_ | There is an epic track in SE I'm trying to find (SE players will know which one I;m sure), they're all good but this one stands out in epicness |
23:58.50 | GD12 | even on reading naturo |
23:58.54 | GD12 | Xho : makes sense |
23:59.23 | Monet | Xho: Well at least computers in the fictionverse are powerful enough to make the Crey-2 look like a pocket calculator. |
23:59.30 | TekPC | ^ |
23:59.48 | Monet | And that's just peoples' PCs |
23:59.57 | Monet | Or maybe their phones... |
