00:00.00HachimanConsidering playing Marauder hur
00:01.17Wormy_Well, I'm going on quickly before bed
00:01.24TechnobliteratorI wouldn't recommend starting out as a tank
00:01.28TechnobliteratorBut MRD is fun
00:01.58HachimanPanda suggested it hur
00:02.41TechnobliteratorGenerally it's best to try DPS or healer classes before tanks
00:03.14Hachimanbut dat meens bein a pussy
00:03.38Technobliteratorwell, it does unless you play melee DPS
00:03.46TechnobliteratorI main MNK
00:04.34HachimanDoes the original FFXIV have a story that isn't accessible in Realm Reborn or is it also included in it?
00:05.07MonetAs a veteren tank, I'd say there's less presure on DPS
00:05.35TechnobliteratorOriginal FFXIV story is not accessible, no. It's also not very good, so who cares
00:05.36Technobliterator:p
00:05.45MonetAlso idunno if you are being a pussy if you'er focusing on dealing damage rather than taking it.
00:06.14MonetYou're just being manly in a different way
00:06.47TechnobliteratorMonet, other than STO and SWTOR, which MMOs do/have you played?
00:07.21MonetWoW, Guild Wars 2, Eve Online, Runescape, ahh...
00:07.42Wormy_STOI might give Eve free trial a try
00:07.47Hachiman>Runescape
00:07.49Hachimanbruh
00:07.51MonetLor of the Rings Online as well
00:07.57MonetLord*
00:08.13MonetHachiman: Haven't played in years though.
00:08.26MonetChampions Online's okay.
00:08.45TechnobliteratorEVE Online I hear is very different, though
00:09.05MonetIt's not a stwitch-focused as the others.
00:09.21TechnobliteratorI can definitely say you are an MMO vet :p
00:09.24MonetAnd it's unique in that you can train skills while offline.
00:09.36Technobliteratorhow do you pay for them all though
00:09.37Technobliteratorwoah
00:09.56MonetI play two at a time at most.
00:11.04MonetChampions Online, LOTRO (I think), TOR also have a F2P side.
00:11.26Wormy_STOYou've played Secret World too
00:11.43Wormy_STOWhich I would play if it wasn't 40 quid
00:12.05MonetAh yes, that too
00:13.11Wormy_STOI've lost interest in No Man's Sky
00:13.26CyrannianWhy don't you play TOR, Wormy? Seems right up your street
00:13.27Wormy_STOSpace Engine is more on my mind
00:13.57Wormy_STOI would like to play TOR, but it has less free content than STO
00:14.05Wormy_STOLast time I looked anyway
00:14.24TechnobliteratorDoes TOR have space combat?
00:14.30CyrannianAye
00:14.38Technobliteratorthough you guys seem to prefer STO
00:15.11Wormy_STOSTO has better space combat, TOR has better ground
00:15.16CyrannianI think SWTOR is a better game in most respects, though I still like STO and it runs better on my system.
00:15.39Wormy_STOI wish the devs hurried up with this http://cdn.wcnews.com/newestshots/full/infinity02.jpg
00:16.11Wormy_STOSpace Engine has taken Infinity's spotlight from me now
00:16.32Wormy_STOIts more astronomically accurate and it has great features coming
00:17.01Wormy_STOand updates come up all the time, while Infinity might get one blog post a year
00:18.29DrodoEmpire^
00:19.05Wormy_STOI say this, but now I've got an egg on my face
00:19.22Wormy_STOA batch of updates here showing real progress https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCNEHBrhTUN4P_ZxIy29DNQw
00:19.28MonetI have yet to try Galactic Starfighter though.
00:19.41CyrannianWormy_STO: It is still F2P in most respects, just minor things require a subscription. Plus I think the storyline and cutscenes are amazing for a F2P game https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ZiL_dpWKHo
00:19.43Technobliteratordo you guys have guilds in SWTOR and STO?
00:19.45MonetApparently it's a new gamemode that does away with the on-rails nature of current space combat
00:19.51Wormy_STOThats more than I've seen in 5 years
00:19.57MonetTechnobliterator: Yes to both
00:21.06Wormy_STO"I spit on her remains"
00:21.14MonetYeah at the very least, the F2P aspect of TOR doesn't hinder story progression, which has always been Bioware's best thing.
00:23.58AeoCan we make it a thing for "Immortalism" to be the blanket word for worship of ascended and descended beings?
00:25.16MonetXho's gone but I was sure we once talked about a word for when talking about both sides.
00:25.35DrodoEmpireWell Aeo that's... A little broad, perhaps
00:25.47AeoXho's gone?
00:25.56MonetAeo: Not on IRC
00:26.06MonetHe's still part of the community
00:26.29CyrannianAnd while I love STO you can't really compare this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CCBiPXTnJDk to this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JAUHs-Kbs5g&feature=youtu.be&t=96
00:26.52DrodoEmpireIts like the term "Animism". Its a blanket term that frustratingly simplifies and acts as a blanket over literal *hundreds* of diverse beliefs and religions
00:27.15DrodoEmpireIt might be good as a *category*, if not a term to define them all
00:29.57HachimanJust use animism
00:32.32DrodoEmpireHm?
00:33.00DrodoEmpireOh, no I was comparing the two; Animism is *very* different from the proposed Immortalism
00:33.13DrodoEmpireIts just down the same vein in terms of usage
00:33.27DrodoEmpireThat is as a blanket term
00:36.25Wormy_STOCyrannian:  STO is catching up though
00:36.45Wormy_STOthey're trying anyway
00:37.16CyrannianIn some cases yes, though all the grinding that came with Delta Rising wasn't a step in the right direction

00:42.03The_AwaynessCyrannian: Granted, part of that is the engine they've had to work with
00:43.30The_AwaynessIt's old and probably held together with spaghetti code
00:44.06CyrannianI don't mean to insult STO or anything, along with Spore it's one of the few games that I don't really tire of.
00:44.15The_AwaynessI know

01:05.55Monethello
01:08.22Abysswalker25Thanks and stuff.
01:09.05GD12Do you have fiction?
01:09.27*** join/#sporewiki TekDroid (~TekDroid@ru3.housing.carleton.ca)
01:10.01Abysswalker25Me? No, I don't. But I was thinking of doing something with this. http://www.spore.com/sporepedia#qry=usr-BlackPhoenix1825|2267936875
01:11.48Abysswalker25Not sure what I'll end up doing though lol.

01:13.02MonetHello
01:13.25Charles_MurrayHey!
01:13.53The_RandomnessHello
01:14.08GD12Hey there!
01:14.22Abysswalker25Yo.
01:15.55Abysswalker25Does anyone use that RP channel?
01:16.50GD12i think most rps occur on titanpad now
01:16.51DrodoEmpire#sporewiki-rp1 and two?
01:17.12DrodoEmpireWell I do with people here. Usually just ones for fun but meh
01:17.39Abysswalker25A bit disappointing. And Titanpad?
01:17.57GD12Titanpad is the most commonly used iirc
01:18.37The_RandomnessI even use that for drafting my writing
01:18.41DrodoEmpireWe can do one if you want. :p
01:18.47DrodoEmpireLike if that's what you want to do
01:19.09GD12Titanpad is good because it can be used from everything from dialogue to big set piece things
01:19.11GD12to drafting
01:19.44Abysswalker25Its more, I'm unfamiliar with what Titanpad is. As for RP, I don't know. Maybe? I feel like I'd need to work out details. xD
01:20.00Wormy_STOTitanpad is good if you are wroting up chapters of a fiction you don't want to reveal on the wiki yet as well or write at your own pace
01:20.11Wormy_STO*writing
01:20.44Wormy_STObye
01:20.47The_Randomnessbye
01:21.58Abysswalker25Oh I see.
01:23.29Abysswalker25Drodo, did you make any fiction?
01:23.54DrodoEmpireOh, boy...
01:23.55DrodoEmpireXD
01:23.57DrodoEmpireDid I ever
01:24.06DrodoEmpireThe Drodo Empire, for one
01:24.30CyrannianI'll put up a link to Titanpad on the header
01:24.32DrodoEmpireThe City State of Halifaxia and the Oirata Horde for the Fantasy Universe
01:25.09DrodoEmpireand The Kingdom of Belgica and the Zi Dynasty for the Brave New World universe (which has yet to be revived because Charles_Murray is lazi)
01:25.20DrodoEmpireThis isn't counting characters
01:25.20Abysswalker25Spore is difficult for me to view as a fantasy style. Seems more natural as sci-fi lol.
01:25.26DrodoEmpireWell... Yeah
01:25.33*** topic/#sporewiki by Cyrannian -> SporeWiki! http://spore.wikia.com || Logs: http://ibot.rikers.org/%23sporewiki/ || Collaborative Universes: Sci-Fi http://tinyurl.com/3ddvp7q Fantasy http://tinyurl.com/p9qau7l || Roleplay subchannels: #sporewiki-rp1 and #sporewiki-rp2 || Titanpad: https://titanpad.com/
01:25.35DrodoEmpireThe main universe is Science Fiction
01:25.59DrodoEmpireBut its important to note that in general the fictionverse play pretty fast and loose with the game mechanics
01:26.04Comrade_VinnyAbyssakwalker25: Welcome new comer?
01:26.05DrodoEmpire*fictionverses
01:26.08Comrade_Vinny*!
01:26.08The_Randomnessheh
01:26.09GD12SW has a scifi verse and a fantasyverse
01:26.47DrodoEmpireBrave New World is a smaller one based in the 1700's that'll hopefully be revived when SOMEONE decides to revive it...
01:26.58DrodoEmpirenudges Charles-Murray 's arm.
01:27.09DrodoEmpire*Charles_Murray
01:27.21Charles_MurrayI am not sure you understand the size of my workload right now. xD
01:27.24Abysswalker25Thank you, Vinny. And yeah I imagine. Just nee a feel for things.
01:27.32Abysswalker25need*
01:28.06DrodoEmpiretakes a whip out of his pocket and points it at Charles
01:28.46GD12Ahh
01:28.49The_Randomness( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)?
01:28.52GD12heres another thing about the ficverse
01:29.03GD12Generally speaking large-scale activity happens during the summer and winter breaks
01:29.16GD12Seeing as the majority of the wiki is engaged in university
01:29.41DrodoEmpiresighs, and puts it away
01:29.45DrodoEmpireDamnit Randomness
01:29.46DrodoEmpireXD
01:30.34Abysswalker25So, wars and such?
01:30.48GD12Wars are the most popular form of large scale fiction
01:30.58DrodoEmpireBut many others can happen, of course
01:31.20GD12^
01:31.23DrodoEmpireNo nation or character ever got great from *just* fighting
01:31.24DrodoEmpireWell...
01:31.29DrodoEmpireExcept for the Huns...
01:31.31DrodoEmpireAnd the Mongols...
01:31.34DrodoEmpireAnd the Romans...
01:31.38DrodoEmpireAnd Alexander...
01:32.10MonetYou forget Pax Romana.
01:32.25GD12The war thing happens because its generally action packed and many users like scifi weapons and or military scifi
01:32.34MonetRome's colonisation of Africa was half-peace half-war if I recall.
01:32.54DrodoEmpireYeah true
01:32.59DrodoEmpireJoke, anyhow. XD
01:33.32Abysswalker25Reminds me, I need to make a way for the Umbris to act. I was gonna base them on rome, but that seems like its been done. xD Maybe I'll just take bits and pieces.
01:33.44DrodoEmpireChinese civilization just sorta *appeared* at some point and then expanded slowly into roughly modern China.
01:34.02GD12War fics are written in style on the continuum from team based action like youd see in Dungeons and Dragons, to curt and to the point battle reports, to giant set piece things made to evoke a feeling of epicness and awe kind of like Toltsoy's exposition of the Napoleonic wars
01:34.03DrodoEmpireGranted the first real centralized Chinese *state* was formed by war
01:34.10MonetWe're all young adults and most of us are men, so the preference on warfics is probably to be expected XD
01:34.16DrodoEmpire^^^^
01:34.19Charles_MurrayThen again, writing war fictions is a lot easier than other fictions. Wars have a clear beginning, a clear progression, clear events, and a clear ending. The same cannot be said about more... peaceful stories. Those tend to revolve around the characters themselves (harder to write) or other driving forces such as economics, diplomacy, commerce, intrigue, etc.
01:34.27DrodoEmpire^
01:34.31GD12^
01:34.47DrodoEmpireWar's simple, stupid, and manly. That's why there's so damn much of it. XD
01:34.49The_RandomnessI personally prefer peaceful stories
01:34.59MonetWars do have a clear end sure, but sometimes it's hard to knwo when that end will finally come.
01:35.04Abysswalker25As a fan of Fire Emblem, I like conflict. Lol.
01:35.11The_RandomnessWar's kind of lost any sort of novelty for me
01:35.38Abysswalker25Of course I also like alliance type things. Setting those up can be fun.
01:36.11GD12Alliances are very prevalent especially in war fics like the Great Xonexian Schism
01:36.21GD12actuallly they are prevalent in all of thme
01:36.26Charles_Murray*heads that one*
01:36.43GD12but i pinpointed GXS because the creation of the alliances and the alliance's prewar moments were extrmeeley explicitly detailed
01:36.59MonetYeah.
01:37.10Charles_MurrayAbysswalker25 : If you want to plot some fiction with France ( http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:France ), or any of its colonies, organizations, etc, I'd love to discuss it!
01:37.15DrodoEmpirelaughs at Randomness's unmanlyness, before going back to stroking his man-beard and thinking about manly war stuff like guns
01:37.36MonetHistorically, wars never ssimply "just happened", there was often a long chain fo events and consequences that led to them.
01:38.28GD12But really, there is something for everyone on SW
01:38.32MonetEve nseeminglysporadic wars between feudal kingdoms often had their roots deep in some ancient transgression that some peopel might not remember any more, and the transgressions of past wars kept the feud going.
01:38.46DrodoEmpire^^^^^
01:38.48Charles_MurrayI think we might be overwhelming him just a bit. xD
01:38.51DrodoEmpire^
01:38.53DrodoEmpireYeah really
01:38.56Abysswalker25Woah, space france.
01:38.58The_Randomnesshm, not sure how hard I should trol with a newb here
01:39.28AeowritingAbysswalker25 For an example of what GD just said, I come from like, the opposite school of thought as these people in every aspect of storytelling. I still survive.
01:39.30DrodoEmpiretakes out a stunstick and yells "<:: ISOLATE!" through his vocoder.
01:40.09The_RandomnessYou are powerless before me pleb, for I am a moderino. ( ° ͜ʖ͡°)╭∩╮
01:40.12Abysswalker25I know all about wars for stupid reasons. I play CK2. Then again, everyone usually just wants my land. ._.
01:40.21Charles_Murray^
01:40.45MonetAnother like soul joins us!
01:40.53Charles_Murray*loves CKII*
01:40.56DrodoEmpireCK2's pretty fun.
01:41.03DrodoEmpireI play a lot of Paradox games so yeah
01:41.12GD12Same here
01:41.15Abysswalker25I got the GoT mod for it, but I play vanilla too.
01:41.49MonetAbysswalker25: You will fit in quite well I think :)
01:42.08GD12Aye
01:42.18AeowritingI'm all like "Why everyone gotta be evil" and they're all "cuz it's more realistic" and I'm all "nuh uh" and they're all "uh huh" and then I remember that my fiction is horrifying and morally ambiguous and... actually, I don't shut up.
01:42.25Abysswalker25We'll see if I even come around lol. But I agree, if something doesn't distract me.
01:42.49*** join/#sporewiki Comrade_Vinny_ (b8a1360d@gateway/web/freenode/ip.184.161.54.13)
01:43.15AeowritingExcept the KSRO. The KSRO is not morally ambiguous at all.
01:43.29GD12Abysswalker25 : do  you want links to any warfics?
01:43.40MonetWe subconsiously like waving our penises around.
01:43.58Abysswalker25I know very very very little on what is even going on, or what happened in the past. I just read fractions of stories.
01:44.11Abysswalker25So I wouldn't know what to ask for.
01:44.23DrodoEmpireMonet: wat
01:44.32Charles_MurrayA lot of us would absolutely be willing to sit you down and offload years of lore into your lap. xD (like me!)
01:44.34The_Randomness( ͝° ͜ʖ͡°)
01:44.42MonetDrodoEmpire: Metaphorically speaking
01:44.43GD12well i mean to see what battles look like?
01:45.05GD12but yes like Charles_Murray we could just offload info into your lap
01:45.08AeowritingMonet: Speak for yourself. I consciously like waving my penis around.
01:45.12GD12*forcefeed you information till your brain explodes
01:45.12DrodoEmpire^
01:45.18DrodoEmpireWait what
01:45.25DrodoEmpireEh fuck it
01:45.28Charles_MurrayI'm not that bad D:
01:45.32MonetAeowriting: THat still counts as you are giving in to your primal instincts.
01:45.57Abysswalker25Hrm maybe. But perhaps it works for me if I RP. I can figure out these things that way if my Empire would be 'new'.
01:46.15The_RandomnessMine's too small to achieve any noticeable effect ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
01:46.19The_RandomnessOk I'll stop now
01:47.58Charles_MurrayAbysswalker25 : The fiction universe is very well networked, so it would be odd (and a little hard) for a new fiction to be completely disconnected from what has gone on. The best strategy I've seen is to work your fiction into existing lore and use those connections as a jumping-off point for more interactions.
01:48.27GD12first contact fics are very fun
01:48.51AeowritingAbysswalker25: Ignore everything I'm about to say, but imo, what the wiki has the fewest of is unironic good guys. There's like four.
01:49.11Aeowritingfive actually.
01:49.17Abysswalker25Unironic good guys?
01:50.08AeowritingHeroes.
01:50.23Abysswalker25Anti-heros not enough? :p
01:50.45AeowritingThere's like twenty. My main fiction is one.
01:50.47MonetWe've got plenty of anti-heroes and heroes who have done really bad things.
01:51.34Abysswalker25Probably because normal heros are kind of flat and can come off as sticking their noses in everyones business, things like that.
01:51.36GD12what aeo is referring to is traditional heroes as opposed to anti-heroes
01:51.59AeowritingWell, not entirely.
01:52.21AeowritingMy web serial outside of this revolves around a guy who eats people's souls and he's an unironic good guy.
01:53.20AeowritingHe's not very traditional. The issue is that he's genuinely well indented and not utterly delusional. He doesn't have any character breaking flaws and he almost always tries to do the right thing.
01:53.26Abysswalker25Ah. Well, I like the gray area of morality, though I usually lean to lighter-gray.
01:54.39AeowritingThe problem is that, and this is a problem in fiction in general, every anti-hero these days is the same goddamn edgelord brooding on top of rooftops. Or, on thw wiki, you instead have Machievelian classists.
01:55.01AeowritingWe do not have brooding edgelords here.
01:55.56The_RandomnessI have more of an issue with excessively dark/hopeless settings than angsty characters
01:55.56AeowritingSo, my advice, think of a reason for your antihero to do bad things other than contempt for other species, contempt for a slave class or lower classes, or realpolitik and self-interest.
01:56.47AeowritingBecause I could probably sort all but three or four of the empires here into one of those four categories.
01:56.47Charles_MurrayThe last two are pretty darn good reasons o.o
01:57.23MonetI wouldn't say realpolitik is an "edgy" quality - it's a form of pragmatism.
01:57.39AeowritingNo. It is definitely edgy.
01:58.18MonetMaybe the more extreme variations.
01:58.40AeowritingLike the ones in the wiki.
01:59.18Charles_MurrayWhile actual "mainstream" realpolitik is pretty much what drives actual international politics (hence "real politics"), which I inspire myself from greatly for my fiction.
01:59.31Aeowriting"I have to enslave everyone who attacks us so no one will attack us" is extreme realpolitik. It works for a credible antihero, but it is most definitely edgy.
02:00.05MonetYeah. But that's extremist realpolitik.
02:00.15AeowritingIt's what your fiction does.
02:00.22AeowritingAnd the DCP.
02:00.28Abysswalker25Hm.
02:00.30GD12I don't think any of these styles are inherently good or bad
02:00.35*** join/#sporewiki DrodoEmpire_ (18deeda2@gateway/web/freenode/ip.24.222.237.162)
02:00.37GD12They are written that way because the writer wantsto
02:00.38MonetTHat's what a lot of pre-Christian nations did.
02:00.55AeowritingAnd they were edgelords.
02:01.12AeowritingI mean, they literally were lords and ladies and they fought with bladed weapons.
02:01.13The_Randomnesshm
02:01.22AeowritingWait, no, I misread you.
02:01.31AeowritingYou said pre-christian.
02:01.31The_RandomnessOut of curiosity, do you have issues with those who have an unsteady moral compass?
02:01.54Abysswalker25Me or someone else? xD
02:01.58The_RandomnessNot you
02:02.00The_RandomnessAeo
02:02.01AeowritingI have issues with people with a moral compass I can't relate to on any level.
02:02.19The_RandomnessSuch as?
02:02.20Abysswalker25All crimes are punishable by being hurled into the sun. :D
02:02.22Abysswalker25Jk.
02:02.42MonetFor reference the Imperium does give captured citizens a right to join the Imperium.
02:03.21MonetThey jsut have to recite the oath of alliegence
02:03.52Abysswalker25Which imperium is this? Theres like 6-7 maybe 26.
02:03.56AeowritingCody, the soul-eater I mentioned, is pragmatic good. I can get that, even though he will become a mass-murderer in the future. I can understand the moral logic behind killing hundreds to use their souls to help save the world. I cannot understand the moral reasoning behind enslaving the descendants of anyone who defies you, so I'm forced to assume the DI are just being assholes.
02:03.58GD12Draconid Imperium
02:04.05Abysswalker25Oh, I read about them.
02:04.07Abysswalker25I like them.
02:04.12Monet:)
02:04.28GD12Mine is the Drakodominatus Tyranny, Charles_Murray's is France
02:04.52MonetFrom the perspective of a citizen of an empire the Draconid Imperium is attacking it's a matter of who is more at fault for the invasion: THe Imperium for the harsh retaliation, or the empire's government for challenging them.
02:05.10Aeowritinghttp://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Aeoneonatrix#Early_History Speaking of grimdark though, new entirely retconned backstory of the Aeons.
02:05.32AeowritingMonet: So they're delusional?
02:05.38The_Randomnessthe heck
02:05.46AeowritingThat works for a villain.
02:05.53The_RandomnessWhat's your problem?
02:06.43AeowritingIt's not an insult. Loads of awesome characters are deluded in the sense I mean here.
02:07.24MonetI suppose it *could* be assholery - it's a staple fact from history that those who have a lot of power seem to like flexing it to the detrement of leser figures.
02:07.50AeowritingBut I think it's safe to say the DI's position on slavery does not come from an honest attempt to gauge the morality of their actions.
02:08.18AeowritingWhich is not to say they're not good characters. They are good... villains.
02:08.33MonetFor not considering the morla implications?
02:08.37Monetmoral*
02:08.46GD12Well
02:08.50The_RandomnessDoes everything have to be heroes/villains?
02:08.53GD12From the Imperium's perspective
02:08.58GD12or from some other
02:09.04AeowritingFor doing so in a manifestly dishonest and self-serving way.
02:09.04GD12the slaves are probably better off under the imperium
02:09.05The_RandomnessI'm having an issue with the way you're framing this
02:09.13GD12stable lifestyle with resources and security against aliens
02:09.51GD12i also dont think that slaves are treated as lower than dirt in the imperium
02:10.03AeowritingDraconis - Yo, alien, it just so happens that morality works out that I can enslave you for my own benefit and you can't do the same to me. Isn't that just the luckiest thing?
02:10.29Abysswalker25Every alien has a different view on morality.
02:10.49MonetGD12: Agreed. I'm sure it's been established that as far as quality of life goes, Imperial sub-citizens have it pretty comfortable.compared to the vast majority of slaves in the 1st gig
02:11.14Abysswalker25They might think slavery is a good thing, while others might not agree.  So they are 'good' from their own prespective but they might not be to others.
02:11.40GD12The only ones I consider to be expressly evil by the traditional definition of evil are the Xhodocto and the Dominatus
02:11.52MonetAeo: If it eases your conscience, "slave" is a taboo word to use when talkign about sub-citizens.
02:12.04MonetIn the DI at least
02:12.19Abysswalker25Use indentured servants. :D
02:12.41AeowritingBut do they really think slavery is a good thing or are they pretending to while realizing subconsiously that it is not?
02:13.00Abysswalker25That depends on the individual.
02:13.00AeowritingOr are they not looking into it because it's convenient to think it is?
02:13.03GD12They probably don't care
02:13.03MonetIt's not all forced labour if that's what you mean
02:13.23The_RandomnessI feel like you're trying to force your view of right/wrong onto this.
02:13.44GD12http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christian_views_on_slavery
02:13.51DrodoEmpire_Its a discussion. Its not a flamewar yet so I'd say its fine so far Randomness. :p
02:13.58Aeowritinghas been an Atheist since early 2014
02:15.06The_RandomnessTrue, but it already feels needlessly tense.
02:15.07MonetIn fact I'd say sub-citizen communities are closer to ethnic enclaves than ghettoes or slave camps.
02:15.23AeowritingBy the way I would like some feedback on this: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Aeoneonatrix#Early_History
02:15.45DrodoEmpire_Discussions about morality, religion, and slavery tend to. :p
02:15.56The_RandomnessI suppose
02:16.08AeowritingLingur - I see, DI. In that case, I will conquer you last.
02:16.17GD12I thought the discussions orignal intention was to introduce Abysswalker25 to the wiki
02:16.21Abysswalker25Im just going to blame everything on those filthy rat-folk.
02:16.23DrodoEmpire_Drodo - Implying you could conquer the DI?
02:17.10AeowritingLingur - Someday. It may be in a hundred, or a thousand, or a million years, but someday.
02:17.36MonetDraconis - Tell you what. Wait until we're finished fighting the DCP.before you weigh up your chances.
02:18.13AeowritingRiffrex - Status quo is god. You and the DCP will be allies again by Christmas.
02:18.41Abysswalker25<.>
02:18.52The_RandomnessWelcome to the chat :p
02:18.55GD12In the meantime, Abysswalker25 is there anything else you want to know about any aspect of the ficverse?
02:19.08MonetDraconis - They *did* conquer an entire Imperial sector fro mthe inside.
02:20.13Abysswalker25Uh, just call me Abyss, its easier. And, I'm just thinking on some things.
02:20.20AeowritingRiffrex - Status quo is God. Mark my words.
02:20.40GD12alright
02:21.14Abysswalker25Milky Way might be a nice start. Though I'd need to know its current state.
02:21.46GD12DCP is the main power in the Milky Way now
02:21.50MonetCurrently under the iron fist of the DCP.
02:22.03AeowritingThey're Space 1984
02:22.16GD12Since it recently kicked out all those in the Milky Way who opposed and could threaten it
02:22.27Abysswalker25DCP being short for?
02:22.34GD12Delpha Coalition of PLanets
02:22.47GD12the main fiction of Wormulon, or Wormy on the IRC
02:23.00GD12An extremeley advanced Orwellian/Stalinist state
02:23.02Abysswalker25Sounds horrifying.
02:23.17Abysswalker25The name Wormulon, that is.
02:23.21GD12Helps that they have one of the most powerful militaries in the gigaquadrant
02:23.45GD12oh lol
02:24.00GD12This is a quick summary of many of the empires on SW http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Gigaquadrantic_Universal_Order_%282800%29
02:26.09Abysswalker25Why don't the Xhodocto just kill everyone?
02:26.28Abysswalker25Then again, they might get bored.
02:26.41MonetThere's endless theories as to why
02:26.42GD12The ficverse ends if they do
02:26.47The_Randomness^
02:27.09GD12The ficverse ends if a big bad wins a Gigaquadrant-scale conflict
02:27.36Abysswalker25The truth is they enjoy pies made by lesser beings, since they somehow lack the ability to create such things. Therefore they act evil in order to steal pie.
02:27.40GD12Since those conflicts generally imply the destruction of a fiction
02:27.57GD12*sometimes
02:28.05GD12aye hur
02:28.51The_RandomnessI know they serve as an effective retcon device, but beyond that they bother me
02:30.30Abysswalker25I'm guessing they're all insane to some degree so I'm just gonna say that.
02:30.45MonetOne of them definitely is.
02:31.21The_RandomnessThey're basically just supernatural horrors with an intent to destroy everything. Standard stuff :p
02:31.48Abysswalker25Oh. Yeah, pretty standard.
02:34.10GD12any questions on the gig?
02:35.26Comrade_Vinny_Hey GD!
02:36.01Abysswalker25Uh.. idk. Who are the active 'major players' currently?
02:36.40GD12Hey Comrade_Vinn_
02:36.59GD12CyraEmp
02:37.01GD12Xonexi Allies
02:37.12GD12= Draconid Imperium, France TIAF
02:37.16GD12DCP
02:37.34The_RandomnessI can't wait until this summer, then I can become an active participant in all this again
02:37.48GD12Borealis also has its stories though i associate those less wih factions and more with characters
02:37.53The_RandomnessAnd then I can stop feeling bad about my inactivity hopefully :p
02:37.54GD12^^
02:37.58GD12^
02:37.59Abysswalker25Hopefully by then I'll have a grasp on things.
02:38.15GD12Hopefully I'll be able to continue and finish AD during summer
02:38.24Abysswalker25Who is most likely to try and assimilate the Umbris?
02:38.28GD12since winter break ill be doing graduate school applications
02:38.48Abysswalker25I just know one big empire is lurkin' around that would do that.
02:38.58GD12What I've done with another user is have mercnearies from my now dead empire encounter his empire
02:39.08GD12We could do something similar
02:39.36GD12but there are many other first contact possibilities
02:39.55GD12also depends on the characteristics and circumstances of your empire
02:40.53Abysswalker25Well, I imagine they know by now aliens are around, but have been sort of sticking to their corner until contact is made.
02:40.54Comrade_Vinny_GD12: Are you talking about me? o.O
02:41.08GD12That was @ Abysswalker25
02:41.18Comrade_Vinny_[22:38] <GD12> What I've done with another user is have mercnearies from my now dead empire encounter his empire
02:41.52GD12that was referring to darcysupremest, yours was peeps stumbling on ex-Tyranny peeps andTyranny tech
02:42.00Comrade_Vinny_Yah
02:42.05The_RandomnessI'm off for tonight, bye guys
02:42.13GD12Which is also plausible given how a potential location of the Abyss's fic is in the Milky Way
02:42.19Comrade_Vinny_I'm now gathering Corruptus Demon samples now ^^
02:42.27GD12nice!

04:34.21TekDroidI like the changes, nice work.
04:36.01TekDroidJust a note for history if you hadn't seen, the Mineral Conflict got retconned out. I don’t remember if you were involved in that.

04:53.05TekDroidI believe Drodo chose to retcon it for a bunch of reasons, can't remember exactly why.
04:53.24AeoI wasn't involved in it.
04:53.30AeoI came on after it was done.
04:55.20dromOh hello Tek
04:56.07Aeodrom Who are you?

05:04.49TekDroidAeo: If you have any questions regarding changes in Delcath or Katar just ask.
05:07.39AeoHas anything of note changed in Delcath?
05:08.03AeoI know they've sided against the DCP in he Schism.

05:09.18TekDroidWell... this is what Delcath looks like sometime after the war right now: http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/spore/images/1/1d/Farengeto_Delcath_Map.png/revision/latest?cb=20150401043403
05:09.21AeoHas anything of note changed in Delcath?
05:09.23AeoI know they've sided against the DCP in he Schism.
05:10.04AeoI approve of that.
05:10.51AeoThough I would like to get rid of the Gargator soon. I'm not going to do anything with them and they no longer serve the backstory function so I may as well make an awesome story out of them being gone.
05:11.41TekDroidBasically annex Ezlang after its collapse, conquered Gargator as part of a coalitionary holy war, and took over control of Mardor and their forner territories since FPC us gone and USF inactive.
05:12.10AeoYou did?
05:12.19Aeo(You being Ferengeto?)
05:14.06TekDroidYeah. You gave me permission with the Gargator at some point before you left. The current occupiers for Mardor were gone so I took over as the new local power.
05:14.13dromFarengeto
05:16.02AeoSo what state are the gargator in?
05:16.32AeoLike, how is the FR governing them?
05:19.13TekDroidRecovering from a disastrous war, which resulted in massive casulties and the death of their religious leadership, sparking a religious reformation. They're in relatively good shape, the old religion is rather supressed though and its followers have restrictions on it.
05:19.35dromTekDroid: Do you mind if I reserve engineer your clock app, just for in the name of science?
05:19.54TekDroidI can just give you the source code. :P
05:20.36dromNo need to bother, I already unpacked the jar and I just downloaded a class decompiler.
05:21.01TekDroidOh. Go ahead then, just give credit where necessary. :P
05:21.02dromBut thanks tho.
05:21.23TekDroidI'm fairly reasonable with my code. :P
05:21.45TekDroidJust be warned that it probably looks horrid.
05:21.59TekDroidAnd is probably terribly inefficient. XD
05:22.32dromEh it looks fine on my end though.
05:22.51AeoCould I get a link to the story where this happened?
05:25.19TekDroidhttp://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Transwarp_War I've been working on the backstory a bit recently, adding more build-up including an explanation for the vanguard.
05:27.17TekDroidWell really improving that war a lot in general. XD
05:27.52dromJo: While you're one among the most experienced with Wikia's interaction with JS and CSS, and so far the only online designer with escalated user rights I know. Is it possible to load a JS script file on a single page?
05:33.11dromI know the deal of searching url locations and document scanning. But I find it more composite to put it all in a single page.
05:36.42TekDroidCharles_Murray: And I thought France was bad. I just learned South Korea went from the 1st Republic to the 6th Republic in less than 40 years. XD
05:37.07dromTekDroid: I'm a bit surprised that it's 2807 already
05:37.49TekDroidYep.
05:39.12Abysswalker25Gonna go.
05:39.15AeoThe Gargator are definitely not smart enough to deny slaughtering the people on that ship.
05:39.19Abysswalker25Thank you for the introductions earlier.
05:39.41AeoThey'd be like - "Fuck yeah we did, for SPODE... wait, why are you pointing those guns at us?"
05:39.46dromBye Abysswalker25.
05:40.00Abysswalker25Bye drom.
05:40.56dromFor a reason, "bye" feels and looks like a Russian word if you leave out the "good".

16:32.09dromHello.
16:32.17MonetHello
16:32.26HachimanHello Aeo
16:32.55AeondroidHi
16:34.02dromI feel like I'm going to pass out.
16:35.59Hachimanhttp://pastie.org/10078617 So I came across this
16:37.10OluapWorkerA mere glance and it already reeks on weeaboo
16:37.11MonetI'm conflicted as to whether or not the kanji is neccessary.
16:37.14OluapWorkerNot reading it hur
16:37.24HachimanRead it, it's great
16:37.34OluapWorkergo edit u fuk
16:37.40HachimanIt incorporates gender issues into it as well
16:38.18Monet"The art was performed by the most efficient of swordsmen and if the sword passed the standards it was given a recommendation" > is he implying European swordsmiths didnt' care abotu quality?
16:38.29HachimanAye
16:38.35AdmiralPandasome of it was ok but most of it was absolute piss
16:38.42AdmiralPandaso yeah, weaboo to the max
16:39.12HachimanPerhaps the funniest thing I've read today
16:40.02dromSpeaking of weaboo. http://i.imgur.com/JtWg8gP.gif
16:41.27MonetYeah I get the impression he sourced the behaviour of knights from19th century historical tracts.
16:41.52OluapWorkerDunno what to do now
16:41.53AdmiralPandato be fair knights had pretty shit behaviour even from the 13th century
16:42.04AdmiralPandabut thing is, most knights did actually serve honourably
16:42.31AdmiralPandayou just had a few bad eggs, and if their actions ever got found out they faced heavy censure from the rest of the order
16:42.33MonetChivalry was more important and useful outside of battle.
16:42.41AdmiralPandachivalry was mostly battle
16:42.53AdmiralPandalike, 8 of the 11 dictates were about battle
16:43.07MonetGuess it didn't work very wel lthen.
16:43.40AdmiralPandaoh it worked quite fine, because remember that chivalry only applied to good christian knights dealing with other good christian knights
16:45.13Monet"Samurai were also forbidden from eating before battle, because upon death a person’s bowels are emptied which would lead to a dishonourable death." > I'm going to say the EUropean knights were smarter here. But these are cultural differences.
16:46.29MonetFor one it wasn't as customary in medieval Europe to disembowel your opponents, so your food is less likely to come psilling out of your entrails.
16:47.39AdmiralPandahe means shitting onesself
16:47.48AdmiralPandawhich very much happens when you die
16:47.57MonetAh
16:48.58MonetAnd the education thing I could have sworn that the first few years a knight-to-be spends in training (during their page and squire years) primarily invovles learning history, general education, reading and writing
16:49.22Wormy_Hachiman:  Postmodernism is flawed and irrational
16:49.42Wormy_Thats the first problem I see with the essay
16:49.48dromI want hundreds of these. http://d1.dn-static.se/UploadedImages/2015/4/7/992d171e-f386-4fc6-9c96-2887c6977d20/original.jpg
16:49.57Wormy_I could divulge deeply into why
16:50.16AdmiralPandamhm, knights did indeed have very good educations
16:50.38AdmiralPandaespecially coming from noble families during a time where the primary means to education were being religious, being a noble or being a muslim
16:50.38OluapWorkerThe problem with the essay is that it's biased and written by a clear weeaboo
16:50.45AdmiralPanda^ that too
16:50.47OluapWorkerTrying to analyse it is a waste of time
16:50.52AdmiralPandabut we can point out as many flaws as we like :P
16:51.54HachimanYou wanna know something else
16:52.02HachimanIt was writing by a satirist as satire hur
16:52.51AdmiralPandaTo paraphrase Yahtzee: you don't do parody by copying people. You do parody by pointing out how stupid they are, copying them is just copying them.
16:52.57OluapWorker"I was just pretending to be retarded"
16:53.26AdmiralPandathe fact that our first impression was "weaboo fagit" means he's missed the mark
16:54.27MonetA situation like this needs background to show that this is not him genione - somethin not easily done when the article is plucked out of thin air
16:55.14AdmiralPandathere's also the phrasing
16:55.17Monethim being genuine*
16:55.55MonetI do see emotionally charge lenaguage.
16:55.58Monetcharged*
16:56.24AdmiralPandafor example, when we go on about "grorious nippon steer," no doubt that's parody, but he's actually just using the arguments that weaboos use
16:58.02MonetI'd imagine folding steel 100 times for one sword would get *really* tedious.
16:58.59AdmiralPandaalso stupid
16:59.05MonetThat's even if you still have a sword that doesn't fall to pieces shortly after it is lifted fro mthe anivl.
16:59.08AdmiralPandabut yeah, very tedious
16:59.46MonetWHen it comes to a professional craft, time and care is nice, but so is efficiency.
16:59.46AdmiralPandabecause thing is, you don't make all the folds at the same time, you make one fold, put it back in the forge, weld it back up, then fold it, repeat ad finem
16:59.54Wormy_"Since people function at lower capacity while hungry"
17:00.06Wormy_Not in my case
17:00.24MonetI've seen peopel get irritable when hungry.
17:00.27AdmiralPandalet me rephrase: you /can't/ make the folds when the metal is cold
17:00.36AdmiralPandait actually doesn't work that way
17:00.47MonetSteel isn't that kind of material, no.
17:00.50Wormy_I work better, I can do more exercise, when hungry
17:00.59AdmiralPandaand by cold I mean any colder than will allow the metal to fuse when you hit it with a hammer
17:01.33Wormy_If I decide to run in the evening then I have a dinner afterwards
17:02.13MonetTHeoretically, the idea of not eating before battle, while I guess leads to a more dignified death, puts the body at a disadvantage in the extremely strenuous environment called the battlefield.
17:02.22Wormy_Panda is right of course, the colder metals are the more brittle they usually become
17:02.49AdmiralPandaWormy_: It's not even that, it's that the folding process actually doesn't work if it's not hot enough
17:03.20Wormy_The metal becomes more ductile
17:03.35MonetIn such an intense environment, you *need* to be at your best.
17:03.49Wormy_Silly postmodernists and their antiscience stance
17:05.18Monet"While European warriors were usually dirty, unshaven and wore armour which featured phallic imagery which was used to keep women and minorities down" one does not hold or attend a banquet looking like a slob.
17:06.12Wormy_From what I read the knights did keep clean, or clean by the standards of the day
17:06.16AdmiralPandaand they shaved a LOT
17:06.31AdmiralPandabeards were not a thing
17:06.35Wormy_And as for phallic imagery, what culture doesn't have it?
17:06.39MonetWormy_: They had more opportunity for bathing so yeah
17:06.48AdmiralPandaWormy_: Hachi-culture
17:07.07AdmiralPandaactually that has the imagery but not the practical application
17:07.19Wormy_And what great psychological harm does it really cause?  You can't just make a claim or correlation and not use evidence to criticise it
17:08.28Wormy_lol
17:08.34MonetAs I said this sounds like 19th century literature where knights were either the shining examples of gentlemanlyness in romantic novels, or the uncouth, uncultered asswipes of a historical tract.
17:08.48Wormy_Falsify is a better word
17:09.29Wormy_I'm glad its satire, but i'm sure people like that exist
17:09.47Wormy_I've not met many weeaboos luckily
17:10.00AdmiralPandathe funny thing is, the samurai only developed their whole honour and loyalty thing AFTER the sengoku-jidai, and they only did it because peasant militarisation took their job
17:10.22Imperioshttp://cs622221.vk.me/v622221086/27bab/v5MrVthP0GI.jpg Okay I do not know what it is but it looks pretty
17:10.44AdmiralPandathat would be a stock photo
17:11.31ImperiosHachiman: Bah, we have been fighting them off for centuries
17:11.49ImperiosYou know for all their coolness samurai have never ever left their home islands hur
17:12.09ImperiosWhy's that? Us
17:13.01Imperios>While the privileged white Europeans like to believe that their knights were not only the most effective in battle, but the most cultured
17:13.02OluapWorkerGoddamn am I bored
17:13.22ImperiosI do not understand why people always use accusations of racism to gain credibility
17:13.34ImperiosBesides, assuming every person reading this is white is racist in itself
17:13.43Wormy_I think the Mongols completely pwned the Samurai didn't they?
17:13.49ImperiosThey could
17:13.55ImperiosBut they were stopped by a hurricane
17:14.09ImperiosHad luck been on their side Japan would be shrek'd

17:14.56Wormy__What if the Samurai summoned that storm though?
17:15.31ImperiosWith their magik katans
17:15.38Wormy__Then they have ninja'd the mongols hah hah
17:15.57AdmiralPandaThe thing is, the samurai that got sent over the sees were actually meant to die there
17:16.00ImperiosFunny thing is everything the essay says about the samurai also applies to most equestrian warrior castes in history
17:16.47ImperiosEven Muslim Arabs had knights, their knightly tradition was called Furisyya or something
17:17.13ImperiosFurusiyya
17:17.21Imperioshttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furusiyya
17:17.46Imperios"Furusiyya ( ??????) is the historical Arabic term for knightly martial exercise during the Middle Ages, during the Crusades and Mamluk period in particular, especially concerned with the martial arts and equestrianism of the Golden Age of Islam. The body of Arabo-Persian "Furusiyya literature" includes the genre Faras-nama, which is an encyclopedic compilation of facts relating to horses.
17:17.47ImperiosIt was a concept and noble art that included the arts of war and hunting, equestrianism, tactics and strategy, and certain games like chess. This art was practiced throughout the Muslim world, and saw its greatest achievement in Mamluk Egypt during the 14th century."
17:18.41ImperiosKorea had http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hwarang
17:20.17ImperiosKnight-samurai-whatever analogues were extremely common
17:20.20ImperiosAdmiralPanda: Hm?
17:21.21AdmiralPandabasically after the S-J the Shogun found there were tons of professional soldiers with no wars to fight and no other skills, so he sent them all off to die so A) he didn't have to pay them and B) they wouldn't resort to banditry
17:21.49ImperiosHeh
17:21.59Wormy__Knights were supposed to be celebates as well, though they probably did do mass rapes since that is an ugly feature of human history in general
17:22.43Wormy__But same goes for Samurai
17:23.24OluapWorkergrorious nippon dikku
17:23.39AdmiralPandawith knights it depends, but I don't recall samurai being required to be celibate
17:24.25AdmiralPandahistorically knights had a lot of leeway in most orders, just so long as they weren't sinning or neglecting their duties
17:27.02AeondroidCleanser - Which one's soul can I have?
17:28.00AdmiralPandathe one thing I always liked about knights was how quickly the fair play rules went out the window the moment anyone not from their general region and socioeconomic class shows up
17:28.13AdmiralPanda"Hm, these guys don't really pose a societal threat to me, FUCK THEIR SHIT UP"
17:28.26AdmiralPandathen they get back home and everyone praises their valour against the filthy heathens
17:28.56MonetThat happens in any culture class.
17:29.03Monetclash*
17:29.48AdmiralPandaI know, and I'm glad it does, because people who play by the rules die by the rules
17:30.13AdmiralPandaor more accurately, die because the other guy didn't play by the rules
17:30.34MonetThat's pragmatism for you.
17:30.57MonetNature only ever has guidelines.
17:31.17AdmiralPandaI once played an alchemist in D&D, my crowning achievement was poisoning the guy the party fighter was scheduled to duel with
17:31.33AdmiralPandanaturally the fighter confronted me, and I just nonchalantly said "well, you're still alive, and he's dead. I call that a win."
17:33.29MonetReminds me of a game Orks apparently play in DoW II
17:33.48Monet*Kills something* "you're dead and I'm not, I win!"
17:34.32AdmiralPandathat's orks in general
17:34.41AdmiralPandaOrks don't lose fights, you see
17:34.52AdmiralPandaif they kill you, they win. If they run away, they survive, so they win
17:35.22AdmiralPandaand if you kill them, there's gonna be another hundred orks right behind them so they win anyway
17:35.25MonetAnd if they die? (can't remmeber htat one)
17:35.28MonetRite
17:38.39AeondroidAnd if I kill them all with my lasers?
17:39.17MonetSame deal with if you kill the mas Ork infestations are impossible to remove
17:39.55AdmiralPandabasically the only time ork infestations are removed is when the entire planet is removed
17:40.15HachimanIf you cleanse a planet of Ork spores you are condemning a entire world and its resources and assets to the fire
17:40.27HachimanSo it's not really a win when you lost something that valuable
17:41.00AeondroidLet's watch Once Upon a Time instead.
17:41.20MonetAnd the Orks still win because they caused a massive amaount of Dakka t obe used.
17:42.29HachimanWhen you look at the Orks one must realise that the Old Ones that fostered/created them were a bunch of idiots
17:43.00HachimanThey create a warlike species to contribute in fighting their enemies and then have no measures to stop themselves from getting turned on
17:43.14OluapWorkerMore like they created the best war weapons ever, so good no one can stop them
17:43.35dromSkittles' commericals are so weird.
17:43.37AdmiralPandafunnily enough they weren't actually created as warriors, they were created to be the ultimate survivors
17:43.43AdmiralPandathe war thing just kinda happened

18:39.34dromImperios: That attribute oh my lungs
18:39.53OluapWorkerHe looks sad
18:39.53XhoFunny because I went down to the doctor's surgery today and there was this ugly overweight child with 'Addict' instead of 'Adidas' on her shirt
18:40.06OluapWorkerAddicted with food
18:40.16ImperiosYeah the
18:40.17Imperiosm
18:40.20dromI've a shirt with "No big deal".
18:40.44HachimanSo horses with scales
18:41.03OluapWorkerMore like a mix between a horse or unicorn and a chinese dragon
18:41.27dromI should go and prepare myself a proportion of gulasch.
18:41.58OluapWorkerI've considered making qilin once but once I realized I made a bunch of real-fantasy things which are probably never gonna appear in fiction, I gave up
18:42.23Xhou didn't want to turn into a xho
18:42.40AbysswalkerOh how I wish fire emblem IF would be out already. Aaargh
18:42.43ImperiosThis reminds me, I thought of remaking Klaxxa aesthetic somewhat
18:42.51ImperiosFirst, it seems a bit too out of place
18:43.12OluapWorkery would i want to b a xho
18:43.12HachimanGive them spaceship[
18:43.14OluapWorkerdey r a dum lot

18:43.21Xhoyeh
18:43.24HachimanNot really hur
18:43.36HachimanI'm fine with cooperating with you even if steampunk is involved
18:43.37ImperiosOne mention of word steampunk and you enrage

18:47.36OluapWorker"I CAN'T SEE SHIT"
18:47.45XhoI have no clue what Legend of the Cryptids is however
18:48.04ImperiosIt is a MOBA I think
18:48.06ImperiosOr a MMO
18:48.10HachimanBut she's not scary
18:48.15HachimanBangable yes but not scary
18:48.28XhoKalarah - ur rly fuked up u kno dat

18:49.51XhoAnd I mean damn well aged
18:50.21ImperiosHachiman: Majority of people pisses you off hur
18:50.31ImperiosAlso I am pretty sure you said you dislike the steampunk aesthetic yourself
18:50.36OluapWorkerShiarchon enclosed themselves in huge walls so no one would point and laugh at them over the distance

18:51.00HachimanLike tophats and monocles and clocks and crap
18:51.05HachimanWhen there is much more to steampunk
18:51.19OluapWorkerTHE GOLDEN AUSTS
18:53.09XhoIf only I had good drawing skills I'd actually draw a Shiarchon unmasked
18:53.38ImpyDroidYou complained about the Iron Horde though
18:53.47ImpyDroidOrcs do not wear tophats hur
18:54.04HachimanI like the Iron Horde
18:54.09HachimanI hate the storyline
18:55.38ImpyDroid>
18:56.46OluapWorkerIRC's nothing but arguing today
18:56.55OluapWorkerCan't we go back to doing dick jokes or something
18:58.11Xhodicks

18:59.16OluapWorkerHe's never here when I need to talk to him
18:59.28ImpyDroidAnyway I though of adding a more exotic edge to Klaxxa architecture and technology
18:59.41Hachimanhttps://scontent-lhr.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xat1/v/t1.0-9/1514604_1594926897391046_8420618655636913087_n.jpg?oh=558316f205cb14fca6949c785847f29b&oe=559FCEF9 From the cringe page
18:59.45AbysswalkerKlaxxa sound like the Klaxxi. Are they preying mantis people?
19:00.09ImpyDroidHachiman: Pure honesty
19:00.27OluapWorkerhttp://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Creature%3AKlaxxa
19:00.29ImpyDroidAbysswalker: Muh dragons predate Mists
19:00.45ImpyDroidThey're from 2010 or something
19:00.49HachimanSo the BBC did a report on the Large Hadron Collider being restarted after a two year break and mistitled the segment as "Hardon Collider Restart"
19:00.52AbysswalkerOh, I see. They stole from you then
19:00.55Hachiman>Hardon
19:01.05ImpyDroidIf you are looking for a WoW analogue
19:01.25OluapWorkerFirst edit was on January 29, 2011‎
19:01.29ImpyDroidRemember Maloriak from Blackwing Descent?
19:01.32OluapWorkerClose but not cigar
19:01.43AbysswalkerMaloriak, sure.
19:01.51OluapWorkerBack when you were still called scary russian letters, aka "Империос"
19:01.55ImpyDroidKlaxxa are basically a species of him
19:02.09HachimanNmnepnoc
19:02.27ImpyDroidBut British and more technology-inclined rather than pure alchemy
19:02.32ImpyDroidThink dragongnomes
19:02.35XhoNmemenfmpoc
19:02.41AbysswalkerWell, all Maloriak type dragonkins are the same crazy alchemists.
19:02.42OluapWorkerHudda hudda hum
19:03.06HachimanWhen I look at the Hachitao model in Spore I am kinda proud
19:03.15HachimanI have not been this satisfied in a while hur
19:04.05AbysswalkerPraise the sun!
19:04.10OluapWorkerThat's because you're a sad little man
19:04.34HachimanYes
19:05.37ImperiosI'm happy for you hur
19:06.49Xho" Since the Kicath's ascension to councilhood, their own religion has caught the eyes of the other members, though aliens worshipping Kicath deities is rare due to the Kicath's generally hostile view toward outsiders"

19:09.01ImperiosHachiman: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=po1Hy4BXLIo Would this work as the Sovereignty's war theme (for a Civ V mod, for example)
19:09.40Hachimanhttp://pre12.deviantart.net/f5b6/th/pre/f/2015/096/2/3/inquisitor_samus_aran_by_blazbaros-d8or6nl.png Samus as an Inquisitor
19:09.48HachimanImperios: Yes I can see that working very well
19:10.09ImperiosHachiman: No hat
19:10.12ImperiosWhat heresy is this
19:10.33HachimanI give it a 7/10 because of that fucking ridiculous boobplate
19:10.57ImperiosBoobplates are good for aesthetic but not very practical
19:11.02OluapWorkerI give it a 0/10 because inquisition
19:11.02ImperiosBecause heart
19:11.07AdmiralPandathe funny thing is that while people fixate on the hat, it's actually the trench coat that is the defining aspect
19:11.16Hachiman>good for aesthetic
19:11.19Xho3.14/10 not sure what I'm looking at
19:11.25HachimanHold me back I am about to rage
19:11.34AdmiralPandaslaps Hachiman
19:11.34OluapWorker~bully Hachiman
19:11.41AdmiralPandayou're probably the biggest tits lover here
19:11.44OluapWorkerbah no bully command
19:11.49HachimanI hate boobplate
19:11.50OluapWorkerDisappointing
19:11.53AdmiralPandaexcept when it's two pairs of tits and then it's Imp
19:12.02HachimanTits are good, boobplate is fucking eugh
19:12.23MonetIs comic boob spandex any better?
19:13.22ImperiosHachiman: Because practicality?
19:13.40HachimanBecause practicality and because it just looks jarring
19:13.55HachimanSame thing with Space Marine pauldrons
19:14.02ImperiosAye fuck pauldrons
19:14.33Xhobut
19:14.35Xhoshoulders
19:14.41HachimanLike how am I supposed to think this female warrior is amazing and badass when she is wearing something that is going to get her fucking murdered
19:14.52HachimanAnd is immensely discomforted
19:14.59ImperiosAlso being badass is hard when you look slutty hur
19:15.26HachimanThat is why you wear proper armour
19:15.40HachimanOr something that is appropriate for your role
19:15.49XhoDominatrix
19:15.50Xhoayy
19:16.06AdmiralPandayou know the funny thing is, while space marine shoulder pads are big, they aren't actually mobility limiting
19:16.17HachimanThey are sight impairing
19:16.20AdmiralPandaso realistically my only problem with them is they aren't quite high enough
19:16.31dromMan I'm so full now
19:16.35AdmiralPandaheh, look at the scrub who thinks marines use only their sight :P
19:16.36ImperiosXho: Since when are you my gf hur
19:16.45XhoSince one minute ago
19:16.49OluapWorkerThings got a weird turn very fast
19:16.59Hachiman>implying Marines can fight without sight
19:17.04AdmiralPandain all seriousness, space marines have a ridiculous set of sensors and equipment to figure out where their opponent is that don't involve seeing
19:17.11HachimanI know Marines use a variety of other senses in conjunction with one another
19:17.13AdmiralPandaand yes they can actually
19:17.13ImperiosYou literally said something Veronica would say in this situation
19:18.02HachimanMarines can fight blind
19:18.04HachimanWhere and when
19:18.13ImperiosDaredevil Marine
19:18.26AdmiralPandaI know Imp said it as a joke but he's actually pretty much right
19:18.42AdmiralPandalater patterns of the marine helmet basically have sonar
19:19.09AdmiralPandanow I'm not saying they can fight to the same efficiency, but they can most certainly figure out where you are and put pain in your direction
19:19.52HachimanHuh
19:20.17AdmiralPandathere's also the fact that each marine has access to triangulation from literally every other marine in the battleforce
19:20.25AdmiralPandaso if any two marines can see you, any other marine knows where you are
19:23.07AdmiralPandathere's also the whole being able to see from the bolter's camera via cybernetic uplink (though that's not standard-issue, it's more a devastator squad thing)
19:24.05AdmiralPandalong story short, a marine's shoulder pads really don't obscure their vision or ability to fight that much
19:24.35dromComrade_Vinny TekDroid Wormy__: http://i.imgur.com/T3PIXRa.jpg http://i.imgur.com/l8322zS.jpg More than this luxurous you can't have as a pre-college student.

19:28.21ImperiosMonet: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jU8o7RRy2Qs ...So does everyone in Beyond Earth speak with ridiculous accents?
19:32.36ImperiosIt was ironic of Firaxis to give the leading space explorer of the game an accent from the country that is known all over the Internet for their inability to go to space
19:37.48MonetNot sure all.
19:39.26MonetAlthough regarding Hutama, I swear he's not a full-blooded Austrailian.
19:40.14MonetHe strikes me as having a more exotic Oceanic heritage.
19:40.40AdmiralPandaassuming we're talking about the first guy, he's a mix of australian, NZ and polynesian really
19:41.00AdmiralPandaleaning a little towards NZ
19:42.02ImperiosI'm talking about everyone
19:42.23MonetI think all of them have some flair.
19:42.25ImperiosEveryone I can understand to a point at least, which is everyone except Quaritch and Chinese lady
19:42.37ImperiosSeriously, Koslov's accent is ridiculous hur
19:43.12MonetSuzanne Fielding seems to have a mixed Spanish and American accent.
19:44.40MonetKoslov I didn't realise his accent was humourous apart from "hur let's put Soviets in here"
19:46.38MonetI can understand a little bit of Quaritch.
19:48.16ImperiosKoslov speaks...
19:48.17ImperiosEh...
19:48.22MonetI'm not sure if I was surprised or relieved that Kavitha Thakur spoke English.
19:48.59MonetConsidering Gandhi in previous Civ games spoke Hindi.
19:49.05ImperiosIt is mostly Russian, but the accent is 40% Polish, 20% Ukrainian, 40% 1980s American movie
19:49.24ImperiosThe kind of Russian Schwarznegger would speak in Red Heat
19:50.07AbysswalkerDidn't Gandhi just threaten you with nukes in civ games?
19:50.19MonetAbysswalker: THat's only the meme
19:50.29Monethe wa salways really nice for 80% of the game.
19:50.51AdmiralPandaGandhi doesn't threaten, he just randomly starts nuking
19:51.50AbysswalkerI read it was a bug lol
19:51.54MonetI cannot say for certain but I feel suspicious that due to its distance from Europe, there might be Americans (FIraxis being a US-based company) who would have trouble differentiating between Russian, Hungarian, Polish and Ukrainian.
19:52.06AbysswalkerI wish they would make a new X-com game.
19:52.30OluapWorkerIt was a bug that became a feature
19:52.39AdmiralPandaAbysswalker: originally it was a bug, basically Gandhi's aggression stat was so low it could loop around and reset to 255 (the highest available value), then they made it a feature because it was so funny
19:54.03AbysswalkerDon't mess with gandhi and his nukes.
19:54.17AbysswalkerAlso can I get your opinion on a few new creations
19:54.38MonetGandhi - I'm so passive I merely want ot obliterate everyone.
19:56.18ImperiosAbysswalker
19:56.20ImperiosAre you Aeo?
19:56.30OluapWorkerIt's a new user

21:10.19The_RandomnessHello
21:10.32Technobliteratorhi Random
21:31.09HachimanSo besides aggressive, how would you guys describe the nature of the Zazane
21:31.20HachimanI plan on updating and renewing some pages
21:32.13AdmiralPandatbh I would say passionate over aggressive
21:32.30The_RandomnessYeah
21:32.45HachimanMakes sense
21:33.18AdmiralPandalike aggression is one of the ways they channel that passion, but from what I've seen of Zazane characters they really seem to be defined by their passion more than anything else
21:38.36MonetPassionate yeah.
21:39.08HachimanAnd besides passionate?
21:39.14MonetHmm.
21:39.19TechnobliteratorI need Oluap
21:39.21Technobliterator;_;
21:39.25MonetStubbourn?
21:40.27MonetThey seem somewhat communally minded too.
21:41.52MonetI know alcohol is forbidden amongst Zazane in Brood society, but fro mwhat i've seen Tyraz is really the only one who is partial to a glass of beer or wine.
21:42.13MonetAnd the others treat it as "law is law"
21:42.25HachimanEh I might change that, there's a lot of dum things about the Brood and Zazane I am not fond of
21:42.36HachimanThey would remain a largely lawful neutral society though
21:42.56MonetWell it could be that alcohol is forbidden, but maybe only in public places?
21:43.13HachimanYeah that makes sense
21:43.53MonetAs I understand it, the main reason for the law is its effect on individuals' performance.
21:45.15HachimanYeah so while in a workplace or public place, alcohol could be prohibited although it should be fine within more personal and intimate places like the household
21:47.19Wormy__DCP alcohol is probably not the real thing, and only makes one drunk in personal space
21:47.56Wormy__Though the DCP is authoritarian its people live in an illusion of freedom
21:48.05Wormy__I would like try and work on that more
21:48.31AdmiralPandaAnd Fordanta are just like "why would you want to screw up your senses like that?"
21:48.54Wormy__But if you break conventions, the world will come after you...
21:50.38MonetDraconis - Sometimes alcoho lgives a unique taste to the drink
21:51.17Wormy__Thing is I've not actually got a clear idea of DCP culture yet.  I used to make out the Grimbolsaurians to be more like say, the Klingons.  But I've made them less like warriors and more like civilised army than barbarioan horde
21:51.43Wormy__Then there's issue of its various members
21:51.55Wormy__How much culture does the state allow?
21:52.38Wormy__Or should it just be like in Equilibrium, a monoculture

22:24.49dromPreloading GTAV
22:25.07dromAnd in decimal it is 65 GB and in binary it says 59 GB
22:26.10dromMy computer says that my flash is ~63.5 GB and calculates to have a size of 59.60 GB. Yet Steam says that it is too small.
22:26.11MonetBig game. Might be all the textures
22:26.23dromI don't understand computers.
22:26.56MonetIt's always good to have at the very least a few percent empty
22:27.49dromGood thing that I had an external HDD lying around. So I don't have to miss out the preloading with the fastest speed on my fingertips.
22:27.51MonetIt might be that steam is saying there isnt't 65GB of space available
22:28.46Wormy__GTAV is available for PC's now?
22:29.34dromFor preloading (downloading the game before it's release, before you can actually get the required files to play it)
22:30.48dromThe system usually consists of delievering a full install but with few exceptions of key files such as the .exe. Some distributers also encrypt it until release.
22:30.56MonetStill 10 days before they actualyl make it available for play
22:31.16drom14th April
22:31.20drom13 days to go
22:31.57MonetBut I've got too much work to pay it this month, which is good because I predict the first week the GTA online servers will be crammed with PC players wanting to get in.
22:32.28dromMonet: http://i.imgur.com/8JBxtOu.png
22:32.54drom"There isn't enough of free space"
22:33.06dromWha
22:33.16dromI got 6.7 mb/s speed
22:33.42dromThat's right. This download will finish in few hours.
22:35.03dromGonna leave this computer on overnight as I wait for the flash formatting and the preload to finish.
22:37.23MonetI'm gonna go AFK for a bit as well
22:37.37dromHah, the physical copy has 7 install discs.
22:37.52dromBrings me back ye oldie times.
22:38.02MonetSEVEN?
22:39.59Monetanyway afk

23:13.26dromRemember when 4chan rigged a Mountain Dew naming contest and tried to name the new product: "Hitler did nothing wrong"
23:14.21AeoQ: What is the internet minus 4chan? A: Better.
23:14.40Liquid_InkYeah.
23:14.52MonetThe idiots gotta go somewhere though
23:15.23dromYep

23:17.11TechnobliteratorI don't
23:17.30TechnobliteratorI've never seen anything good come out of 4chan, sadly : |
23:17.35dromI get my moments from the subreddit hub.
23:17.41HachimanYou have not been to /tg/ then hur
23:18.06Hachimantg is all about stuff like D&D, Pathfinder, Warhammer 40,000 and Fantasy Battle, board games and traditional games in general
23:18.21HachimanOf course there's a ton of cretinous shit there but at least good stuff comes out of it occasionally
23:18.38drom<PROTECTED>
