00:27.27 | Wormy_ | true dat |
00:27.27 | Monet | Okay I just heard that French critics consider the 50 shades of gret film "tame" and gave it a 12 |
00:27.38 | Monet | grey* |
00:28.10 | odell | Wormy_: http://imgur.com/gallery/B8QUdoX |
00:28.11 | Liquid_Ink | Now that Fifty Shades of Grey has come out, I'm thinking that maybe I should write an erotic novel about Jack the Ripper. If people get aroused by manipulation and abuse, I'm sure they'll love murder, mutilation, and cannibalism. |
00:28.34 | Wormy_ | olol |
00:28.40 | Xho | Liquid_Ink: A book already exists like that |
00:28.45 | Xho | It's called American Psycho |
00:29.04 | Monet | lol |
00:30.02 | Monet | I am now curious. Is the film quite tame compared ot the book or is French porn that hardcore? |
00:30.31 | odell | Wormy_: Carnivore aliens face this problem when ordering food in restruants for omnivores but currently dominated by herbivore guests. |
00:31.05 | Wormy_ | http://imgur.com/gallery/Fkz6gzv |
00:31.27 | Wormy_ | Its that hardcore |
00:32.44 | Wormy_ | http://imgur.com/gallery/aiw2EfU |
00:33.12 | Monet | French just got more badass. |
00:34.43 | Xho | I find it hilarious that 50 Shades of Grey has been negatively received by critics but confusing that they're doing a sequel in 2016 |
00:35.00 | odell | I wonder how it's like to be bound to a wheelchair, I probably don't want to. |
00:35.15 | Hachiman | Keep in mind Twilight got its own cinematic trilogy |
00:35.48 | Monet | Sex sells |
00:35.59 | Xho | "Fifty Shades of Grey has attracted criticism due to its origin as a fan fiction based on the Twilight novels," |
00:36.11 | Monet | Ooh burn. |
00:36.18 | Xho | Nope that's a fact |
00:36.25 | Monet | I know |
00:37.36 | Monet | I jsut find it funny that a publicly acclaimed novel was Twilight fanfiction. Then again how much of Twilight would change if you removed the "werewolf" and "vampire" aspects? |
00:37.36 | Xho | It's not even a good book by critical opinion |
00:37.55 | odell | nighty nightie |
00:38.04 | Xho | Well if you change "Werewolf" to BDSM and "Vampire" to psychiatrist |
00:39.24 | Monet | So still messed-up just no longer fantasy |
00:42.20 | Xho | It's now a consensus that Twilight is a better love story than 50 Shades |
00:42.37 | Monet | ...okay |
00:42.52 | Wormy_ | Have any of you seen True Blood |
00:43.06 | Monet | WOrmy_:I've wondered about it. |
00:43.30 | Wormy_ | It can get pretty pornographic |
00:43.43 | Xho | Well |
00:43.44 | Xho | Vampires |
00:43.52 | Monet | It looked pretty adult from the adverts |
00:44.04 | Xho | There's nothing wrong with pornography as far as society is concerned |
00:44.04 | Wormy_ | like there was this naked prostitute woman devoured alive by vampires andtied to the floor |
00:44.08 | Monet | EMphasis on "graphic" I'm guessing |
00:44.13 | Comrade_Vinny | Starting to play Dying Lighjt... |
00:44.14 | Xho | Except that might be a little taboo |
00:44.31 | Monet | Yep, emphasis on "hraphic" |
00:44.34 | Xho | But still 50 Shades is hated simply because it's overhyped and poorly written by most accounts |
00:44.38 | Monet | graphic* |
00:46.06 | Comrade_Vinny | The worst is there is probably gonna be a sequel... |
00:46.31 | Wormy_ | I'm not sure what to think of Atlas Shrugged |
00:46.40 | Xho | A sequel has already been confirmed |
00:47.04 | Comrade_Vinny | -_- |
00:47.27 | Monet | Wormy: THat's another book of divided opinions |
00:47.59 | Wormy_ | Atlas Shrugged leaves me with mixed feelings |
00:48.12 | Xho | "UK academician plans âMahabharataâ Twitter sequel, this time on Duryodhana" |
00:48.18 | Xho | I do wonder how he's gonna do that |
00:49.42 | Xho | "About 1.8 million words in total, the Mahabharata is roughly ten times the length of the Iliad and the Odyssey combined" |
00:49.46 | Xho | Oh my god |
00:49.58 | Xho | That is the quickest way to break a human |
00:50.44 | Comrade_Vinny | Wat? o.O |
00:50.51 | Monet | By the Allfather's eye... |
00:51.10 | Xho | I've read both the Iliad and the Odyssey and they're both fairly lengthy and heavy reads |
00:51.12 | Monet | Imagine trying to make a film of -that- |
00:51.46 | Monet | Isn't the Odyssey one of those stories that has been extended as time went on? |
00:52.16 | Xho | Possibly |
00:52.32 | Xho | Bits have been added to it over time but I wouldn't imagine anything in the last millennium |
00:54.16 | Wormy_ | I have read some of the Epic of Gilgamesh |
00:57.51 | Xho | Jesus |
00:58.01 | Xho | Makes me want to write about epics in the Fantasyverse now |
00:58.41 | Wormy_ | I find the Xeelee Sequence is an epic |

01:00.51 | Monet | Xho: The Odyssey's setupp makes for great TV serial |
01:01.01 | Xho | There was a TV series |
01:01.08 | Monet | It's like Star Trek, only in ANcient Greece and everyoe on board jsut wants to get home. |
01:01.38 | Xho | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Odyssey_%28miniseries%29 Here it is |
01:02.23 | Xho | It has its inaccuracies and licences but it wasn't bad |
01:03.02 | Monet | I was more thinking a full-on TV series but that works. |
01:03.43 | Xho | I think anything pertaining to classical literature is difficult to get right |
01:05.05 | Monet | Oral literature is known for such flexibilities in the recounting |
01:07.05 | Monet | "Laocoön (Heathcote Williams) tries to warn the Trojans of a vision of [the trojan horse], but is suddenly devoured by a sea monster." convenient |
01:07.50 | Xho | Good times |
01:07.59 | Xho | In the book he and his two sons get devoured |
01:08.43 | Monet | Laocoön - *Running along the beach to some Trojans* Guys guys! I had a vision! The greeks are going to *nom* |
01:09.58 | Xho | That was more or less it |
01:10.29 | Xho | Anyway |
01:10.33 | Xho | Time for sleep |
01:10.42 | Monet | goodnight |

12:43.20 | ImpyDroid | Ayatollah Kalarah is now Supreme Leader of Glorious Republic of Shiarchon |

12:47.27 | Xho | Males because they're walking corpses and females because superheated desert environment |
12:47.52 | Liquid_Ink | Well the females obviously need a second set of clothing to cover their full body clothing |
12:50.21 | ImpyDroid | Strangely enough I can imagine Shiarchon having some Persian elements in their architecture etc |
12:51.58 | Xho | I'd imagine their architecture would tend closer to eastern than western at times |

14:25.28 | Igloo_ | hello |
14:25.31 | Igloo_ | i am new to this wiki |
14:26.48 | Hachiman | Hello |
14:27.24 | Igloo_ | Could anyone help me out? I read the Fictional Universe guidelines, but I'm still not sure how to make my pages good. |
14:29.49 | odell | I don't feel well anymore after finding this file in one of my installed games. http://i.imgur.com/D9lxMAG.png |
14:30.06 | odell | NSFW: Gore |
14:30.17 | Igloo_ | yeah okay not clicking that |
14:33.17 | Igloo_ | but yeah, i read the guidelines but i'm worried that my pages won't be very good |
14:33.47 | *** join/#sporewiki ImpyDroid (~DanzaDelM@host-103-158-66-217.spbmts.ru) |
14:36.24 | odell | So what's the matter with the guidelines? |
14:36.57 | Igloo_ | nothing |
14:37.08 | Igloo_ | i'm just worried that my pages won't be too good |
14:41.10 | Igloo_ | they'll at least be better than the BSE i guess |
14:44.47 | DarcySupremest | odell: Darkest Dungeon? |
14:45.12 | odell | Yep |
14:45.38 | PandaMechanicus | Igloo: The best advice anyone can give is get started. Even if you make a mistake, you can always fix it later. |
14:45.43 | odell | Igloo_: Just write and write until you get feel comfortable with your results. |
14:45.57 | DarcySupremest | http://i1.kym-cdn.com/entries/icons/facebook/000/013/723/mah-nigga.jpg |
14:46.22 | odell | You'll receive feedback in IRC. Else it's you'll have to ask for it. |
14:46.25 | Igloo_ | well okay |
14:46.33 | Igloo_ | A few questions, though; |
14:46.57 | Igloo_ | The BSE page in particular mentions tiers. How do those work? |
14:48.17 | DarcySupremest | They are the tiers of the Kardashev scale |
14:48.24 | DarcySupremest | http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kardashev_scale |
14:48.31 | odell | DarcySupremest: I ragequitted soon though because I got ambushed by three bandits when camping in a dungeon where I was tasked to kill the apprentince necromancer. |
14:48.37 | odell | THEY CRITED ALL OF THE TIME. |
14:48.37 | Igloo_ | oh, I see |
14:49.00 | PandaMechanicus | not exactly |
14:49.01 | DarcySupremest | I know right? |
14:49.07 | Igloo_ | so type 0s have no technological advancement? |
14:49.08 | DarcySupremest | Oh yeah |
14:49.15 | Igloo_ | or is it the other way around? |
14:49.16 | DarcySupremest | I think I'm wrong |
14:49.17 | PandaMechanicus | we use our own tier system, you'd be better getting Wormy_ to explain it when he's available |
14:49.32 | odell | Keep in mind that some of us distaste the tier system. |
14:49.45 | odell | Or no interest in it in general. |
14:49.47 | Igloo_ | oh |
14:50.00 | DarcySupremest | decide for yourself if you want it or not |
14:50.11 | Igloo_ | do we NEED to include a tier? the GSE didn't mention one |
14:50.11 | PandaMechanicus | almost all of us make use of it if only for classification purposes |
14:50.18 | Igloo_ | oh |
14:50.19 | Igloo_ | okay |
14:50.20 | DarcySupremest | ^ |
14:50.34 | Igloo_ | also, in the BSE evaluation, it says not to have creatures that are billions of years old |
14:50.34 | DarcySupremest | Basically so you know what civilisations make God run in fear |
14:50.45 | odell | Hah |
14:50.50 | Igloo_ | that doesn't really make sense, seeing as it would take billions of years to go from cell to space |
14:51.08 | DarcySupremest | I believe that applies specifically to Old Civilisations |
14:51.18 | DarcySupremest | as in, don't have a billion year old empire |
14:51.18 | odell | We are necessarily not the "interest club". |
14:51.27 | Igloo_ | ohhhh |
14:51.30 | Igloo_ | okay |
14:52.12 | DarcySupremest | odell: I love how hard it is, its like Dark Souls |
14:52.21 | DarcySupremest | I can only play it in like |
14:52.24 | DarcySupremest | bursts though |
14:52.27 | DarcySupremest | too much stress |
14:52.29 | PandaMechanicus | the practical reasoning behind that is simply it makes no sense for uniquely ancient or large civilisations to have avoided detection for so long |
14:52.32 | DarcySupremest | ironically |
14:52.46 | PandaMechanicus | Darcy: don't compare any game involving RNG to Dark Souls |
14:52.52 | Igloo_ | so, say my empire (not counting my civilization) is about 11,000 years old |
14:52.56 | Igloo_ | Is that too long? |
14:53.07 | odell | I've also discovered the heroic sanity. |
14:53.28 | PandaMechanicus | Igloo_: do you mean 11'000 from the beginning of civilisation, or it has existed in its current state for 11'000 years? |
14:54.02 | odell | If your hero's sanity goes up to max. They have either a chance to become insane, or become heroic and drop the stress to half. |
14:54.08 | odell | stress not sanity* |
14:54.20 | DarcySupremest | I didn't mean mechanics wise I meant because its ballcrushingly hard |
14:54.25 | DarcySupremest | like FTL used to be |
14:54.36 | odell | It does even autosave all of the time. |
14:54.37 | Igloo_ | PandaMechanicus: The second one. |
14:54.41 | PandaMechanicus | again, completely different types of difficulty |
14:54.42 | odell | So savescumming isn't possible. |
14:54.58 | PandaMechanicus | Dark Souls is hard because it's mechanically challenging, FTL is hard because you have to roll the dice |
14:55.14 | PandaMechanicus | all Roguelikes are the same, you just get shit runs |
14:55.28 | odell | Darkest Dungeon is hard because you have to manage and make the best out of the worst that will always come. |
14:55.58 | odell | There is >no< run where you'll come back without something bad to forget. |
14:56.03 | Igloo_ | bleh |
14:56.07 | Igloo_ | gotta find the image for my creature |
14:56.15 | DarcySupremest | Well I've always liked RNG even if the Difficulty is artificial |
14:56.19 | PandaMechanicus | Igloo_: In that case I'd probably say so, because the longer a society exists in its current state, the more stagnant it is. For a society to have been the same for 11'000 years basically suggests you've had no social development over that time |
14:56.30 | odell | I always come back with insane members, straving heroes and worst cases: no loot. |
14:56.55 | Igloo_ | PandaMechanicus: Well, I might've said that wrong |
14:57.10 | Igloo_ | I meant that the empire has existed for 11,000 years |
14:57.17 | Igloo_ | about, anyway |
14:57.34 | DarcySupremest | So its been 11,000 years since the first colonised another planet you mean? |
14:57.45 | odell | DarcySupremest: I think DF is the hardest non-RNG game I've ever played. |
14:57.47 | Igloo_ | it's been 11,000 years since my creature's planet was unitd |
14:57.58 | Igloo_ | *united |
14:58.23 | DarcySupremest | Oh so in game terms, 11'000 years since the end of Civilisation stage |
14:58.29 | Igloo_ | yeah |
14:58.30 | PandaMechanicus | then you have the same basic issue of stagnation |
14:58.33 | Igloo_ | pretty much |
14:58.53 | Igloo_ | as a side note, for some unexplained reasone |
14:58.57 | Igloo_ | *reason |
14:59.04 | Igloo_ | EVERY SINGLE EMPIRE I'VE ENCOUNTERED IS MY RACE |
14:59.16 | Igloo_ | except one, and that's because i advanced the tribe to civ and then they went to space |
14:59.37 | DarcySupremest | odell: DF? |
14:59.39 | PandaMechanicus | longevity isn't inherently a good thing- as I said, the longer it takes a faction to reach the same level, that's just a sign of stagnation |
14:59.41 | odell | Dwarf Fortress |
14:59.48 | DarcySupremest | Oh right derp |
14:59.59 | odell | It hurts you more than what Dark Souls does. |
15:00.50 | DarcySupremest | Its heresy to say it I know but I never liked Dwarf Fortress, I can see why others like it but I just can't get over the the UI or how impenitrable it is |
15:01.17 | DarcySupremest | *Impenetrable |
15:01.27 | Igloo_ | PandaMechanicus: So, you're saying that I just shouldn't go with the 11,000 years thing? |
15:01.35 | odell | You breached the first cave layer before you built up your militia? -> Game Over |
15:01.45 | odell | You forgot to bring picks? -> Game Over |
15:02.05 | odell | Your lake froze over? -> Game Over |
15:02.32 | DarcySupremest | Strangely I like stuff that makes a game harder in a mechanics sense, like I have shittonnes of mods for skyrim that make it so you need to drink, eat sleep and stay warm |
15:02.43 | PandaMechanicus | I'm saying that you should consider the implications of your decisions |
15:03.05 | DarcySupremest | And it disables fast travel to make camping neccessary, which people have given me weird looks for but I like the long walks, very relaxing |
15:03.37 | Igloo_ | PandaMechanicus: What I'm trying to say is that my species' empire has been around for about 11,000 years, and has in that time made advancements in the galaxy |
15:03.59 | odell | DarcySupremest: I don't like that kind of management. I prefer group management. Because all I need to do is to assesset the situation and tell my members what to do. |
15:04.23 | PandaMechanicus | And what I'm saying is there are species who have achieved the same thing in a tenth of that :P so if you do go with the 11'000 years, just recognise that that's a really stagnant culture |
15:04.39 | DarcySupremest | Yeah I'm just a weird type that likes games like that |
15:05.03 | odell | DarcySupremest: MLG minecraft |
15:05.16 | DarcySupremest | haha |
15:05.17 | PandaMechanicus | it's not a contest, what matters is the stories that develop in the setting- a lot of things are justifiable, you just have to consider the implications of the choices you make |
15:06.00 | DarcySupremest | I was about to say I miss when minecraft was new and scary, now i can barely work up the interest to stay in survival mode |
15:06.09 | DarcySupremest | Guess the magic is just gone |
15:06.31 | Igloo_ | my species would probably be too concerned with forcibly bringing the galaxy under one religion than to advance themselves very quickly |
15:07.00 | odell | The magic was strong when my friends introduced it to me. |
15:07.00 | PandaMechanicus | typically speaking, any species so driven would be trying to expand as quickly as possible, don't you think? |
15:07.24 | Igloo_ | they ARE trying to expand |
15:07.30 | Igloo_ | that's pretty much their main priority |
15:07.49 | Igloo_ | unfortunately, they've gotten into a massive war |
15:07.55 | odell | Every species are born expansionists. |
15:07.59 | Igloo_ | between a whole boatload of empires that are all their species |
15:08.15 | DarcySupremest | Btw odell, don't think I've read any of your fiction mang? |
15:08.19 | Igloo_ | i'm mainly just basing this off my game that uses these creatures tbh |
15:08.22 | PandaMechanicus | what I'm trying to get at is, a driven species like that would try to develop the technology to expand as quickly as possible, and then start expanding as quickly as possible |
15:08.26 | Igloo_ | not sure if that's a very good idea |
15:08.38 | PandaMechanicus | for that kind of model, 11'000 years is a ridiculously long time |
15:09.20 | Igloo_ | the 11,000 years thing was based on my game |
15:09.26 | Igloo_ | i feel like i should stop basing it on my game |
15:09.29 | odell | DarcySupremest: You caught me confused, pardon? |
15:09.32 | PandaMechanicus | yeah, nobody does that here :P |
15:09.38 | DarcySupremest | yeah |
15:09.38 | Igloo_ | alrite then |
15:09.43 | Igloo_ | *cracks knuckles* |
15:09.49 | DarcySupremest | you know how the Grox are the best guys in the game? |
15:09.54 | DarcySupremest | Haha,, yeah |
15:09.58 | DarcySupremest | nope |
15:10.01 | Igloo_ | ...i have no idea how to set up the page |
15:10.10 | Igloo_ | besides creating it |
15:10.23 | DarcySupremest | odell: I've never read any of your fiction, I believe |
15:10.26 | odell | Start off with the infobox and then put in the headers. |
15:10.37 | Igloo_ | i don't know wiki code too much |
15:10.44 | odell | DarcySupremest: What does the name "Dromlexer" tell you. |
15:10.52 | Igloo_ | also, out of curiosity, how does everybody make those emblems for their empires? |
15:11.27 | odell | I make mine in GIMP |
15:11.52 | DarcySupremest | MLG420DORITOSMOUNTAINDEWPROTIP: Igloo, just go to somebody elses page that looks super intricate and awesome, hit edit and just look at what they did to do it and edit it over to your stuff |
15:12.35 | odell | copy it* |
15:12.37 | Igloo_ | 'kay |
15:12.55 | Igloo_ | *stares at the creatures he made years ago* |
15:12.58 | Igloo_ | *shudders horifically* |
15:13.37 | Igloo_ | i was so bad at creature making back then |
15:13.38 | DarcySupremest | odell: It means that you're trying to indicate something about Dromlexer, potentially that you are said one |
15:13.58 | odell | Don't make me play a game on you. Like what I did with Suppy_ last week. |
15:14.19 | DarcySupremest | Igloo, look at it his way, I didn't know you could switch off the Symmetrical snapping until like a month ago |
15:14.31 | DarcySupremest | And I've been playing spore since I was 13 |
15:14.51 | Igloo_ | i knew how to do the asymmetrical thing, but i never do it |
15:14.58 | odell | I have no memory of how old I was when playing Spore |
15:15.07 | DarcySupremest | Oh god I do it all the time now |
15:15.08 | Igloo_ | if i tried making an asymmetrical creature it would be a horrifying abomination |
15:15.20 | DarcySupremest | Its so goddamn useful with Dark Injection |
15:15.27 | DarcySupremest | And making actually intimidating soldiers |
15:15.40 | odell | It's useful for posing as well. |
15:15.57 | Igloo_ | that's true |
15:16.08 | odell | Posing is a royal ass-pain though., |
15:16.11 | Igloo_ | any recommendations for a page to copy the code of? otherwise i'll use the GSE |
15:16.31 | DarcySupremest | odell: odal pls, I not good ate poes law |
15:16.40 | odell | [self-adversting intensifies] |
15:17.07 | DarcySupremest | Igloo_ just find someones stuff you find personally cool |
15:17.22 | DarcySupremest | Off the top of my head Drodo, has that sweet border and header on his page |
15:17.30 | odell | Else you can snatch them from the Featured Fiction page. |

15:20.52 | Igloo_ | AFK briefly |
15:21.05 | odell | DarcySupremest: & - "Hello. My name is Dromlexer." |
15:21.37 | Comrade_Vinny | "...and welcome to Jack Ass!" |
15:21.38 | DarcySupremest | I know that now, I forgot "whois" was a thing I could use to learn stuff about other squishy humans |
15:22.16 | odell | Jesus christ. Both of you completely missed the DF reference. |
15:22.32 | odell | "It was inevitable" |
15:22.38 | DarcySupremest | - |
15:22.57 | DarcySupremest | - "has barely played DF" |
15:23.10 | PandaMechanicus | You and Monet are the only people here who actually care about DF |
15:23.20 | DarcySupremest | (I can't believe that took three tries to get right) |
15:23.26 | PandaMechanicus | everyone else just laughs at the occasional message board post |
15:23.35 | odell | Vincent20100 is also one among us. He doesn't play it so often though. |
15:25.13 | odell | It doesn't either help since I meet the clowns for the first time early through my gameplay. |
15:26.03 | odell | If you want it spoiled for yourself. Go ahead: http://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/Clowns |
15:29.47 | DarcySupremest | Clowns reminds me of the hardcore enemys that spawn in Goblin Legions in Terraria |
15:29.54 | DarcySupremest | Also known as, where is your god now |
15:32.49 | DarcySupremest | Also, photos like this http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/spore/images/4/40/Nsshipengage01.png/revision/latest?cb=20141222181841 |
15:33.03 | DarcySupremest | They are building poses? correct? |
15:34.22 | odell | Nope. They all are vehicles in Adventure editor's Test mode. |
15:35.00 | DarcySupremest | I assume the weaponry are the special effects options? |
15:35.01 | odell | Few of the explosion flares are paintovers. Other flares are taken from internet, pimpified. |
15:35.05 | odell | Yep |
15:35.34 | DarcySupremest | Yeah I'm still learning how to do that haha |
15:36.18 | odell | All effects done in GIMP. With the exception of the that explosion though. |
15:38.24 | DarcySupremest | I keep forgetting I have GIMP installed which I should stop doing |
15:38.38 | DarcySupremest | because its debatably just as good as Photoshop and its free and opensource |
15:39.11 | Igloo_ | AAAND i'm back |
15:40.05 | odell | Cannot find the source file for it. Blast. |
15:40.30 | DarcySupremest | I need to get better at the vehiclemaking and such |
15:40.55 | DarcySupremest | the issue of have is the size restrictions though, maybe I just need to learn to scale down |
15:41.17 | odell | I work in miniature. |
15:41.22 | Igloo_ | welp, time to find a featured article to copy the code of |
15:41.41 | odell | Picky but still rewarding at the same time. |
15:41.51 | PandaMechanicus | bbl |
15:42.46 | Igloo_ | how do people make all those scenes for a creature? |
15:43.04 | Igloo_ | i have no idea how to pose stuff |
15:45.58 | Igloo_ | which upsets me |

15:46.29 | Cyrannian | Hello. |

15:47.40 | Igloo_ | Cyrannian, how does one do the posings |
15:47.48 | Cyrannian | Posings? |
15:48.01 | Igloo_ | how do you pose stuff and make scenes |
15:48.28 | Cyrannian | Oh right, you mean with ships and battles? |
15:49.08 | Igloo_ | Yeah. |
15:50.16 | DarcySupremest | [listens in in order to learn but doesn't vocalise it] |
15:50.25 | Cyrannian | Do you have the Galactic Adventures expansion pack? |
15:50.30 | Igloo_ | nooope |
15:50.58 | Cyrannian | Ah, that's what you need to get. The Adventure Creator is what I use. |
15:51.03 | Igloo_ | oh, okay |
15:51.46 | Igloo_ | i'd copy the code from the Quashowan's page but for some reason I feel like that'd be kinda jerkish and it'd be clear it's a rip of the code |
15:52.01 | Igloo_ | i guess it would be better to use the GSE's code and modify it |
15:52.46 | DarcySupremest | Cyrannian: Anything tip wise beyond that? |
15:52.58 | DarcySupremest | I'm very mediocre at posing |
15:54.48 | Cyrannian | Hm, Ghelae made a really useful guide, I'll try find it |

16:03.45 | DarcySupremest | that and I wanna try catch GD12 because I need to ask him something related to an RP we did earlier this year |
16:08.18 | DarcySupremest | Reading this guide is really quite facisnating |
16:08.38 | DarcySupremest | Its amazing how much effort people went to, to patch up the shit EA cut or left out |
16:09.13 | DarcySupremest | Not that this is a bad thing, the part teaching you how to make it look like props are firing weapons by hiding enemy buildings inside them and getting an offscreen vehicle to shoot at it |
16:09.20 | DarcySupremest | is nothing short of genius |

16:11.53 | Igloo_ | Which PNG image should we use for our downloadable? Creature, Tribal, Civ, or Space? |
16:12.44 | DarcySupremest | I love montage parodies then I would love my first born son |
16:13.32 | ImpyDroid | Probably Creature |
16:13.34 | DarcySupremest | Its so embaressing to remember there was time where the Montages these parodies are based on were actually real, legitmate and unironic things people made |
16:13.37 | ImpyDroid | Your choice reallt |
16:13.43 | ImpyDroid | Space can work too |
16:14.07 | Igloo_ | hmm |
16:14.25 | Igloo_ | i feel like Space would work better seeing as my creatures are in the Space stage |

16:15.49 | Igloo_ | do we need to include an evaluation or quotes tab when you first make a page? |
16:15.58 | ImpyDroid | I hope he gets his 72 virgins |
16:17.24 | Igloo_ | iunno whether to keep the evaluation or quotes tab for my creature's page |
16:17.42 | Igloo_ | since i wouldn't have any quotes about my character |
16:18.00 | Igloo_ | from anyone else, that is |
16:18.42 | DarcySupremest | Up to you, I added one after I felt confident that it was enough for a quote to be made about it |
16:21.08 | DarcySupremest | See problem with my screenshots is that anything from galactic adventures ingame pictures do not save to the spore folder |
16:21.13 | DarcySupremest | I have no idea where they go |
16:25.35 | Igloo_ | so should i get rid of the evaluation |
16:28.54 | Igloo_ | also, what do each of the portraits do? |
16:29.13 | Igloo_ | i get that the first one is the downloadable png, and the second is probably for the main image in the infobox, but what about the miniature portrait |
16:34.32 | Igloo_ | ..chat's ded isn't it |
16:38.45 | Igloo_ | i really don't know what to do for my creature's page |

17:16.14 | Wormy_ | Mystery Mars haze baffles scientists http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-31491805 |
17:20.49 | DarcySupremest | Very interesting, I want to keep an eye on that |
17:21.07 | Comrade_Vinny | So today guys, I had an evaluation for my Professionnal Cuisine class |
17:21.12 | DarcySupremest | I want to say an asteroid or something hit and kicked it up but I'm no astronomer |
17:21.42 | Comrade_Vinny | One of the question was "Quote one of your favourite citations" |
17:22.21 | Comrade_Vinny | I wrote "Le Travail vous Libérera" (Work will set you free) ^.^ |
17:23.11 | Comrade_Vinny | 2 bucks for the chaps who know that come from |
17:24.57 | DarcySupremest | And you're hoping to fail your class I take it |
17:25.22 | DarcySupremest | Unless your marker has an equally morbidly hilarious sense of humor |
17:26.47 | Comrade_Vinny | It's not humour, it's actually a pretty good motto of life |
17:27.55 | Wormy_ | Darcy: That thought did enter my mind before I read the article |
17:28.39 | DarcySupremest | I'll take your word for it Vinny |
17:28.48 | Wormy_ | But whatever it is (some strange auroral mechanism) or atmospheric phenomonon, it seems to come and go, making it a bit stranger |
17:29.10 | Xho | ImpyDroid: Dear god |
17:29.26 | DarcySupremest | "The chances of anything coming from mars" are a million to one he said |
17:29.36 | Xho | So I'm back from the doctors as well as work |
17:29.44 | Xho | I have been fucked around too much today |
17:30.05 | Comrade_Vinny | I was also kinda pissed off by how many lasy asses there was in my class when I did nthe evaluation... |
17:30.31 | Wormy_ | I find it a bit odd that the haze reaches 1000 km when no other clouds are measured above 200 km. And as for aurora, you'd expect Mars's rather dead core wouldn't generate fieldlines to produce aurora 1000 times stronger than on Mars or Earth |
17:32.00 | Xho | And I've come back into something complicated and weird |
17:32.32 | Wormy_ | Whats that, this conversation? |
17:32.44 | DarcySupremest | This hurts my brain to think about |
17:32.51 | DarcySupremest | Volcanic activity |
17:32.52 | DarcySupremest | ? |
17:33.05 | Wormy_ | Thats not impossible |
17:33.09 | DarcySupremest | Besides an Asteroid I can't think of something that could kick dust that high |
17:34.40 | Wormy_ | They reckon there is evidence that volcanic activity last occurred on Mars 2-3 million years ago |
17:35.09 | Wormy_ | One thing one might do is look at the position of the clouds and look for nearby volcanoes |
17:37.48 | Wormy_ | It was aliens! |
17:37.53 | Wormy_ | There I said it. |
17:38.17 | Comrade_Vinny | Alien? |
17:38.49 | Comrade_Vinny | Well if that is true, that it was probably Americans coming in to Liberate them ^^ |
17:42.38 | DarcySupremest | They're sapient pools of Oil |
17:42.49 | DarcySupremest | The Americans had to save them from themselves |
17:47.43 | Comrade_Vinny | These aliens were obviously comminazimusulimterroristchinese |

21:30.16 | Ghelae | Wormy_: Yes, I have seen it. |
21:30.28 | Xho | I suppose so |
21:30.34 | Xho | It's a means of inter-user communication |

21:31.06 | Ghelae | The SporeWikiverse pretty much began in 2009, after all. |
21:31.24 | Ghelae | Wormy_: Hence the next most popular suggestion: aliens. :P |
21:31.46 | Wormy_ | Yes, in fact that was discussed on the chat earlier |
21:34.03 | odell | Speaking of weird creations. I've got this in my hard drive. It's neither the weirest shit I have got for now. |

21:39.18 | Wormy_ | I'm pretending to be active here. But I'm not. |
21:39.33 | Wormy_ | I shall now move officially into semi-active status |
21:40.02 | Wormy_ | I'm talking about fiction, of course. |
21:40.21 | Wormy_ | I've lost motivation almost completely. |
21:40.53 | Suppy__ | Does that include SH? |
21:41.34 | Wormy_ | No, I can still be a part of that. I can make contributions to ficxtions now and then abut can't be a regular writer anymore. |
21:42.26 | Wormy_ | Its a shame, on the one hand I have more plans than ever for fiction, on the other I'm not enjoying writing currently |
21:43.06 | Wormy_ | I'm going to do it as Cyrannian does it. |
21:44.04 | Wormy_ | I'm also going to reduce 60% of planned and unfinished fiction into a backstory, much of it would be history now anyway and I doubt I'll get many users involved again. |
21:44.37 | Wormy_ | Glad to get that off my chest. |
21:45.35 | Suppy__ | Damn, sorry to hear it |
21:45.49 | Suppy__ | But good for facing a reality, I suppose |
21:45.56 | Suppy__ | What's thus far unfinished? Why can't people get involved? |
21:46.01 | Suppy__ | Or bring themselves to get involved, that is. |
21:47.04 | Wormy_ | I'm absolutely swamped, some fictions I'm in are moving only very slowly, or should have been finished years ago and nobody will show interest http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/User:Wormulon/Scrapbook#Planner |
21:49.05 | Suppy__ | What are these? |
21:51.16 | Wormy_ | They are all mentioned but not linked on there |
21:51.58 | Wormy_ | I'm not abandoning them, but many will become a backstory to be written on an article-type format |
21:52.49 | Wormy_ | As for GXS, Attero Dominatus, your story and the DCP-Vermulan war, these are still semi-active so I can contribute to them fine |
21:53.17 | Wormy_ | Well your story may not be semi-active but you get the point |
21:53.26 | Suppy__ | I'm working on that |

21:55.37 | Wormy_ | Monet, TekDroid: This might be important to you as well |
21:56.14 | Wormy_ | If we want we could try and arrange times to write or plan stuff |
21:56.16 | Monet | Wormy_: I've been busy myself and have been hoping for a while to progress with ther GXS |
21:57.14 | Wormy_ | I do worry about it slipping into dead waters |
21:57.47 | TekDroid | I've been waiting for some progress in the GXS. Since Farengeto's role is limited I've bern waiting for the opportunity to do something. |
21:58.05 | Cyrannian | <PROTECTED> |
21:58.17 | Wormy_ | If it does die, I suggest writing about in a historical article type context, that is the quick and easy route |
21:59.15 | Suppy__ | I'd be willing to participate once |
21:59.15 | Suppy__ | ahem |
21:59.24 | TekDroid | I have a plot of my own I've been meaning to work on for a while, as a sort of worldbuilding thing. |
21:59.28 | Suppy__ | The crew allots some good times to work on titanpad together |
22:00.59 | TekDroid | Likewise my secondary fiction, Roreinia, needs the events of another arc sorted out before I can do something. |
22:03.17 | Wormy_ | It can be frustrating |
22:03.50 | Suppy__ | Indeed |
22:05.49 | TekDroid | Farengeto's current fiction in GXS is largely dependent on whether the Civilization attacks Katar again or if the Allies make any advances out of it. |
22:06.50 | Suppy__ | Ah |
22:06.56 | Suppy__ | I feel ya |
22:07.09 | Suppy__ | I can do literally nothing at all until early SH is sorted out |
22:07.25 | Suppy__ | Like the intro mission to an open world game |
22:07.44 | Suppy__ | Which is a tad frustrating given all of the awesome opportuntieis that exist with the fictions here |
22:08.08 | TekDroid | Farengeto has neither the resources nor supply to lead any offensives, any of their colonies outside Katar are away from the war. |
22:12.21 | TekDroid | And I really don't want to start post-war stuff while we're still stuck on the war. :/ |
22:12.46 | Xho | Setting this aside I really should rework the Ascension and Descension pages |
22:13.05 | odell | Cyrannina: Found the ewoks. http://distant-worlds.wikispot.org/Atuuk |
22:13.14 | Xho | Might be worth deleting the pages and then categorise them under the Essence page |
22:13.38 | TekDroid | In Katar I had to do skip to post-war for a war that was already us skipping to the post-war of another war. >.< |
22:14.20 | Wormy_ | Ouch |
22:14.53 | Suppy__ | wot |
22:15.04 | Suppy__ | So there's a war |
22:15.08 | Suppy__ | And then you did the war after it ahead of time |
22:15.17 | Suppy__ | But now you're doing the post-war of the second war ahead of time of the second war |
22:15.21 | Suppy__ | Which is double ahead of time of the first war |
22:16.39 | TekDroid | We had Attero Dominatus. That stalled so we moved to the Lightning War that followed the year after, then that stalled so I just continued. And since that was never finished if I do it for GXS that makes 3 layers. >.> |
22:16.46 | TekDroid | XD |
22:17.44 | Monet | Lotsa skipping |
22:17.44 | Suppy__ | dear gawd |

22:23.54 | Monet | Xho: Perhaps rather than deleting them we combine the two pages? |
22:24.17 | Xho | Well |
22:24.33 | Xho | I thought just delete them and then redo it all under the Essence page |
22:24.45 | Xho | Cyrannian: I can see why she suffocated |
22:25.36 | Monet | Xho: Perhaps it could depend o nhow much content we have on ascensino and descension |
22:25.50 | Xho | Apart from characters, not much |
22:26.04 | Xho | Hachi has quite a wide content on Descension though since it's mostly a Zazane thing |
22:26.27 | odell | Cyrannian: The funniest thing about this is: It's not The Onion. |
22:27.43 | Monet | And also all the stratified essences have a description of the states and powers available anyway. |
22:27.48 | Monet | Aside fro mELemental Energy. |
22:28.52 | Monet | ALthough i suppose it's because EE's the only one that doesn't turn you into a mostly-energy being with a or mthat is essentially "you, but with alien features" |
22:29.07 | Monet | a form* |
22:30.42 | Monet | Question is, what would be a good term to use when talking about both? |
22:31.03 | Monet | both states* |
22:31.10 | Xho | No clue |
22:31.12 | Monet | "Ascension/descension" is a bit of a mouthful |
22:33.55 | Monet | Idunno if "cathersis" would work |
22:33.58 | Xho | Dunno really |
22:34.03 | Monet | catharsis* |
22:34.04 | Xho | Catharsis might do |
22:34.22 | Xho | Though that usually just springs Xeranbha to mind |
22:35.17 | Monet | It's meaningful though |
22:35.23 | Xho | True |
22:36.18 | Monet | A general explaination of ascension/descension/catharsis might be fine on the Essence page |
22:37.24 | Monet | Since essentially either side of the spectrum involves the purging of certain emotions and feelings and transforms the being into a highly durable immortal entity with immense power over the fabric of reality |
22:38.52 | Monet | The primary difference appears to be that Descendants are warped into something horrid, heavily warps the mind and users have a larger preference for powers that cause pain and destruction. |
22:40.40 | Monet | And the most common form of ascension appears to be some form of spiritual enlightenment |
22:44.12 | Monet | Much of the behaviuour of descended beings appears to be the being either evoking or undergoing a state of mimesis |
22:45.13 | Monet | "Catharsis and Mimesis" are a bit less of a mouthful than "ascension and descension." and could serve as an alternative phrasing |
22:45.35 | Monet | That or mimesis could be when an ascended/descended being loses emotional control. |
22:46.29 | Monet | And since ascension/descension is closely tied to emotional state, perhaps mimesis in such beings is comparable ot being rabid? |
22:48.39 | Xho | Maybe |

22:51.57 | TekDroid | Hello |
22:52.10 | Monet | GD12: We're having a little rethink o nwhat to do with ascension and descension |
22:52.18 | GD12 | Oh cool |
22:52.21 | GD12 | what are the thoughts so far? |
22:53.41 | Monet | http://pastie.org/9955004 |
22:54.46 | Wormy_ | I wonder if there could be a role for a "Zen" path (not copied no, but based on it) for essence based stories |
22:56.38 | GD12 | Probably since it appear that willpower, self-control, and emotional control are extremely important in essence |
22:57.23 | Monet | Hence why I thought "catharsis" could work as an umbrella term for both ends of the spectrum |
22:58.33 | Wormy_ | boom |
22:58.37 | GD12 | Aye |
22:58.41 | Wormy_ | I had an idea |
22:58.45 | GD12 | An Ultimate Awakening/ Englihtenment mmoment |
22:59.11 | Wormy_ | Warlord Maurloron is supposed to come back from the dead |
22:59.22 | Wormy_ | Well, it would be a clone or copy of him |
22:59.41 | *** join/#sporewiki OfficerJackal_ (~OfficerJa@2601:3:8681:3d8:d44a:77f4:192a:ef66) |
22:59.49 | Wormy_ | Perhaps Mauloron becomes an enlightened character |
23:00.02 | GD12 | Another thing to possibly explore is the stability of essence in that if entitites without a lot of self-control imparted with a lot of essence can have the essence chew them and consume them from inside out |
23:00.23 | Wormy_ | The two namesaseem rather incompatible in the same sentence lol |
23:01.06 | GD12 | lol |
23:01.31 | GD12 | Ahh heres an idea |
23:01.34 | Wormy_ | Poor Maulie, I never gave him a proper spotlight and he was the first to be killed off. |
23:02.15 | GD12 | (Said idea builds of pastie) Essence ultimately leads to one of two things - the mimesis or catharsis - one being enlightenment the other being consumption and complete metaphysical annihilation |
23:02.48 | Wormy_ | yes, actually I think that is the conclusion with elemental energy |
23:03.11 | Monet | Descended beings tend to have less positive emotions and are much more consumed by hate, anger or dissapointment. |
23:03.22 | Wormy_ | All this power alone does not grant wisdom of how to use it |
23:04.06 | GD12 | Aye, but it is possible for even dark beings to have control over those powers like the top-ranking formerly mortal guys of the Dominion of Xhodocto |
23:04.21 | Monet | The NArs are said to grow mor eexponentially powerful with age. Maybe their "growth" is the result of time spent exporing withi nthemselves? |
23:04.40 | GD12 | I guess for the majority of other people who try to increase their power and over reach (something probably more common with decension), it is very possible for them to be consumed, eaeten, or drivent to insanity by those pwoers |
23:04.46 | GD12 | aye |
23:05.16 | Monet | Descension i recall is meant ot be the less-healthy direction. |
23:05.42 | Monet | Rage, violence, corruption, reduced self-control etc. |
23:06.09 | GD12 | aye |
23:06.09 | TekDroid | Though I get the impression they have better combat potential. |
23:07.00 | Monet | TekDroid: As I mentioned ealier, descended beings tend to favour more offensive control over erality. |
23:07.03 | Monet | reality* |
23:07.10 | TekDroid | Of course. |
23:09.14 | GD12 | sry bbl |
23:10.17 | Monet | Descension is commonly given. |
23:13.30 | Xho | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/File:XhodoctoThing.png I have no clue what I was trying with this |
23:14.23 | Xho | It looks better on a darker background |
23:14.33 | Monet | "you cannot grasp the true form" |
23:14.39 | Suppy__ | oh goodness |
23:14.48 | TekDroid | That looks like the internet tried to take physical form. |
23:15.03 | TekDroid | as an eldritch being |
23:15.20 | Xho | It's probably some kind of digital manifestation of a Xhodocto |
23:17.14 | Xho | http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/spore/images/d/dd/XhodoctoThing.png/revision/latest?cb=20150216231702 Here's a better version |
23:17.41 | Wormy_ | Will it run Crysis 3 |
23:17.53 | TekDroid | spooky. |
23:18.06 | Xho | Nothing can run Crysis 3 |
23:18.34 | Xho | I might change the quote on the Xhodocto page |
23:18.59 | Xho | I need something outstandingly cryptic if it's a Xhodocto quote |
23:20.19 | Cyrannian | The lyrics of "All About That Base" translated into Sanskrit |
23:20.21 | Monet | Hmmm... |
23:20.36 | TekDroid | lop |
23:20.39 | TekDroid | *lol |
23:20.41 | Xho | Santorakh - that works |
23:21.26 | Xho | I'm finding it difficult to get a Xhodocto quote right now |
23:22.11 | TekDroid | You're mostly sane right now? :P |
23:22.28 | Xho | Looks like it |
23:23.41 | Suppy__ | Dang |
23:27.12 | Monet | "We are the wheel of reality, the foundation of all. To explain is to simplify, to understand is to bring logic ot the abstract. No beginning, no end. We move in perpetuum. We do not bear nor need explaination for in the end, none of it matters. We at once predate and succeed. We are eternal, unchanging, ouroboros" |
23:27.28 | Wormy_ | Maybe you are really here to channel the Xhodocto in our universe |
23:27.53 | Xho | If that's the case the Xhodocto have gotten lazy recently |
23:28.06 | Xho | Monet: Nice |
23:28.34 | Wormy_ | They have simply chosen Monet to be the new channeler |
23:29.28 | Xho | THERE CAN BE ONLY ONE |
23:30.04 | Monet | You can keep the honorary title. The less my mind tries to bring reason ot the Xhodocto, the better |
23:30.17 | Monet | They arre jsut that..alien |
23:31.23 | Xho | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Ayrai%27Shikua I've changed it slightly but the principle is there |
23:32.28 | Monet | Xho: I'll agree with that. |
23:32.34 | Xho | I was going to make a new Xhodocto form though I just couldn't get it right |
23:32.51 | Xho | It was going to be a mix of cyborg and organic |
23:33.49 | Monet | Wel las Tek once pointed out when you get to a certain technological point, "cyborg" and "organic" become hard to differentiate |
23:34.06 | Xho | Well I mean plain visibly |
23:34.24 | Monet | Same. |
23:34.31 | Xho | Symbolism behind it was that the Xhodocto truthfully are neither so physically containing both characteristics was a white lie |
23:34.46 | Wormy_ | Ah |
23:34.54 | Wormy_ | I was about to say |
23:35.09 | Wormy_ | cyborg form would be stone age for them |
23:35.25 | Wormy_ | or even bacterial |
23:35.28 | Suppy__ | Isn't "Xhodocto" kinda just its own level of civilization? |
23:36.04 | Xho | There are a few things on the wiki that contest the Xhodocto but they never come into interaction with one another |
23:36.09 | Wormy_ | I think of them as metaphysical noodly appendages |
23:36.51 | Suppy__ | Do these metaphysical noodle civilizations ever work towards a goal? I think at some point you can just "be" and not worry about crap |
23:37.10 | Monet | That's what the Xhodocto are |
23:37.33 | Monet | Best way I coudl describe them is they're the foundation fabric of reality with a gestalt consciousness |
23:38.02 | Xho | Well the general consensus is that the Xhodocto want to bring all of existence into a chaotic nothingness though that's what their followers believe anyway |
23:38.15 | Wormy_ | What they "are" straddles the border of the real and the unreal. From what I understand, they are a dream of the universe's sentients inability to comprehend ultimate reality, creating a hellish consciousness of chaos and entropy |
23:38.46 | Wormy_ | In turn the sentients are also the dream of the Xhodocto |
23:39.01 | Suppy__ | So which one invented anime |
23:39.16 | Xho | The Xhodocto since they're both spontaneous |
23:39.39 | TekDroid | Suppy: Santorakh, probably. He's the insane one. :P |
23:39.39 | Xho | I think explanations on the Xhodocto differ from user to user |
23:39.54 | Wormy_ | Yes, that one I gave is my own |
23:40.11 | Xho | Some go to say 'They're manic destructive demonic entities' right down to 'simply unexplainable' |
23:40.25 | Xho | Or inexplicable, I dunno |
23:40.40 | Suppy__ | This some deep science time |
23:40.41 | Wormy_ | Well no, Xho invented the idea but its the one I've taken to be an explanation |
23:41.17 | Xho | My general rule for the Xhodocto is to 'break and destroy every single rule that humanity couldn't imagine reality without' |
23:41.20 | Monet | The Xhodocto are perhaps beyond scientific explaiantion |
23:41.25 | Wormy_ | yes |
23:41.40 | Xho | And thus I get complicated fiction |
23:41.50 | Wormy_ | I have my own Unseen Entity http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:The_Legacy/Unseen_Entity |
23:42.52 | Xho | There's a heckload of inconsistencies in my fiction that makes the Xhodocto difficult to interpret |
23:43.03 | Xho | Especially the Kamik'Shi/Xhodocto barrier |
23:43.35 | Xho | Originally Kamik'Shi was the creator of the Xhodocto and now it's more like that Kamik'Shi is an explanation or a name for the Xhodocto's conscience |
23:43.37 | TekDroid | Wasn't their some game of reality thing at some point? |
23:44.01 | Xho | Yeah that was turned on its head when I started making the Xhodocto too difficult to cope with |
23:44.08 | TekDroid | right. |
23:44.11 | Wormy_ | Yeah its considered only an interpretauoon at best |
23:44.13 | Xho | The Xhodocto in a sense is my own mad game of trying to break people's minds |
23:44.30 | Xho | I'm certainly almost there |
23:44.53 | Xho | But they did go from a rough Tier 2/1 civilisation to what they are now |
23:44.53 | Suppy__ | Are the Xhodocto WoW? |
23:44.58 | Wormy_ | The Xhodocto at the simplest then represent the unknown |
23:45.25 | TekDroid | You could have some looped paradox Kamik'Shi created the Xhodocto but is created by the conscience of the Xhodocto. :P |
23:45.34 | Wormy_ | And what is the limits of the knowable and unknowable, is unknown |
23:45.36 | Xho | Much explanations I give for the Xhodocto, even the heavy explanations are vague and inaccurate |
23:46.22 | Xho | I just wouldn't dwell on it too much because it will eventually ruin the Fictionverse for you |
23:46.41 | TekDroid | At least you succeed in giving mystery as to what they are. :P |
23:46.54 | Wormy_ | Mystery is good |
23:47.18 | Xho | It's easy to create mystery, to make them genuinely mysterious takes a long time |
23:47.28 | TekDroid | A little mystery in something like that is good. |
23:48.06 | Wormy_ | Its difficult to represent that on a summary page but its executed well in fiction |
23:48.06 | Xho | I much prefer the Xhodocto being in the background nowadays, it's as if everyone has forgotten of their existence |
23:48.33 | Wormy_ | Maybe they have |
23:48.43 | Wormy_ | Not to be said in a cruel way |
23:48.54 | Xho | It's probable |
23:49.03 | Xho | In a way they're not meant to be dwelt on |
23:49.09 | Wormy_ | But maybe out of some eldritch event everything they knew in their history changed |
23:49.37 | Wormy_ | Leaving a few clues |
23:49.45 | TekDroid | After three large scale tries they do risk villain decay, so not necessarily bad to have them step back from the spotlight for a time. |
23:49.55 | Wormy_ | Which turn people mad |
23:50.16 | Xho | Well they did go into villain decay which is why I took them out of the villain role more or less |
23:50.24 | Xho | They're now just *there* |
23:51.45 | Wormy_ | Hm |
23:52.10 | Wormy_ | Would you mind if I ever did an alt universe exploring this possibility |
23:52.26 | Xho | Can't see why not |
23:52.34 | Wormy_ | Not that I ever probably will get down to it |
