| 00:00.05 | Wormy_STO | I mostly use Maya for scripting and dynamics though, so its forgivable |
| 00:00.40 | Wormy_STO | So many ways to use that beautiful program |
| 00:02.21 | dinoman9877 | The only 3D modelling I've ever done is in Spore so...Yeah...Doesn't count at all... |
| 00:02.23 | Wormy_STO | I wonder how Spore gets over this issue. |
| 00:02.44 | Wormy_STO | Well, I still think Spore is fantastic when it comes to speed. |
| 00:02.47 | The_Randomness | I'm guessing it might be accounted for by the game's engine |
| 00:03.35 | The_Randomness | Or that most of the time you can't see it |
| 00:03.55 | TekDroid | What always impressed me was how Spore compressed its models into a simple small PNG. |
| 00:04.23 | The_Randomness | Yeah, I found that clever as well. |

| 00:05.08 | Monet | As I understand it, those PNGs act as a blueprint. |
| 00:05.11 | TekDroid | A hidden binary in an alpha layer was a smart idea, and just that they can compress the data into such a simple format. |
| 00:05.16 | dinoman9877 | What always impressed me was that I have never had a decent enough computer to have the shiny skin texture work properly. |
| 00:06.36 | Wormy_STO | Yeah saving on high quality brinfs out a high quality preview on Sporepedia I noticed |
| 00:06.39 | Technobliterator | I want a freaking sequel to Spore |
| 00:06.56 | Technobliterator | I'm not giving up hope! |
| 00:07.00 | dinoman9877 | It's not going to happen. |
| 00:07.03 | dinoman9877 | Well it is. |
| 00:07.05 | dinoman9877 | Actually. |
| 00:07.13 | The_Randomness | [citation needed] |
| 00:07.15 | dinoman9877 | Ever heard of Thrive? |
| 00:07.20 | The_Randomness | I have not |
| 00:07.42 | Wormy_STO | Yes, but thats been going on since Spore |
| 00:07.43 | TekDroid | I still want more of it, but EA killing Maxis really hurt the chance of it. |
| 00:08.09 | Technobliterator | EA killed off the studio, not the brand. They'll still milk Maxis products to death |
| 00:08.25 | Technobliterator | Problem is, they made Darkspore, and no one cared for it |
| 00:08.28 | TekDroid | My money is on the indies doing what Spore deserved to be. |
| 00:08.38 | Wormy_STO | I believe EA will continue to make Spore-derived games, using its technology |
| 00:08.46 | dinoman9877 | *Facepalm* They took their forums down. Here's the main site. |
| 00:08.53 | dinoman9877 | http://revolutionarygamesstudio.com/ |
| 00:09.03 | Technobliterator | Mine's not, since our wiki won't cover those |
| 00:09.05 | Technobliterator | :( |
| 00:09.12 | dinoman9877 | They actually have a demo for the first stage of gameplay. |
| 00:09.44 | Wormy_STO | Oh wow, I thought it had made no progress |
| 00:09.45 | Technobliterator | I want Spore 2 to breathe life into this wiki |
| 00:10.08 | TekDroid | I'm hopeful. |
| 00:10.14 | The_Randomness | Oh wow, there's already a downloadable version of that game |
| 00:10.29 | dinoman9877 | Oh they switched forums. http://thrivegame.canadaboard.net/ There you go. |
| 00:10.45 | Technobliterator | Eh, Starcraft was dead for ages |
| 00:10.50 | Technobliterator | They revived that |
| 00:11.16 | Wormy_STO | There are lots of things out there that are like parts of Spore, but better. Like Species or Space Engine |
| 00:11.18 | Monet | StarCraft has had a thriving tournament scene for years |
| 00:11.26 | The_Randomness | Yeah |
| 00:11.45 | dinoman9877 | Species is good too. |
| 00:11.46 | The_Randomness | Spore more or less just had the hype upon release and lukewarm reviews |
| 00:11.51 | Wormy_STO | Actually, several ex-Maxis developers have been making simulation games, like Jellygrade |
| 00:12.03 | dinoman9877 | But Thrive is meant to be THE next Spore. |
| 00:12.04 | Technobliterator | It did surprisingly well |
| 00:12.05 | Cyrannian | If there is a Spore sequel, I doubt it'll be marketed as "Spore 2", it'll probably be a reboot |
| 00:12.08 | dinoman9877 | What it should have been. |
| 00:12.26 | The_Randomness | I'll make sure I watch that game |
| 00:12.28 | Technobliterator | Given people still join this wiki |
| 00:12.40 | Technobliterator | I think it's had a good impact |
| 00:13.02 | dinoman9877 | They have an hour long soundtrack for just the microbe stage... |
| 00:13.12 | dinoman9877 | Jaesus... |
| 00:13.22 | Monet | Yeah but EA's suits don't measure success by community impact. They measure by sales. |
| 00:13.25 | Wormy_STO | Ocean Quigley on Jelly Grade https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZV7vwfJGesU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wh8dq-5p0ls |
| 00:13.27 | dinoman9877 | This is what happens when I leave for a few months. Stuff happens! |
| 00:13.46 | TekDroid | They'd probably market it under a new name, possibly with "Sim" in the title. |
| 00:13.49 | dinoman9877 | And to get sales, they just hype it up, rake in what they can, and run away. |
| 00:13.54 | Technobliterator | The sales, iirc, were pretty decent |
| 00:14.00 | The_Randomness | yeah |
| 00:14.09 | The_Randomness | Not saying Spore didn't sell well, because it did. |
| 00:14.21 | dinoman9877 | Am I the only one that wants another Simlife or Simant? |
| 00:14.22 | TekDroid | The fact the servers are still up proves it has popularity. |
| 00:14.35 | Technobliterator | It did do well and it did have impact, it's not dead yet |
| 00:14.53 | Cyrannian | It is certainly still popularity, it is often in the top games category on Steam |
| 00:14.56 | Wormy_STO | dino: I had both those games, I'd love there to be |
| 00:14.59 | Cyrannian | *popular |
| 00:15.06 | Technobliterator | It's just EA are taking their sweet time rebooting |
| 00:15.18 | dinoman9877 | 'I'm not dead yet! I'm feeling much better! I think I might go for a walk! I feel happy! I feel ha-" *Whacked in the head by EA with a mallet* |
| 00:15.22 | Wormy_STO | I really want to play Sim Earth, but it will never work on my PC |
| 00:15.41 | dinoman9877 | They had SimEarth on the Wii. |
| 00:15.42 | TekDroid | I actually have SimEarth on our Wii. XD |
| 00:15.50 | dinoman9877 | Really Tek? |
| 00:15.56 | TekDroid | Yeah |
| 00:15.57 | dinoman9877 | Tryin to steal my thunder? |
| 00:16.03 | The_Randomness | lol |
| 00:16.03 | dinoman9877 | Not cool bro. |
| 00:16.26 | Technobliterator | Spore's success is a pleasant surprise |
| 00:16.39 | TekDroid | O.o I have a game with a 1.4GB update. |
| 00:16.53 | Wormy_STO | My friend has a Wii, I will be bugging them |
| 00:16.59 | Monet | EA's subsidiaries seem to be focused on BF HArdline and Battlefront 3. |
| 00:17.09 | The_Randomness | I just hope that if another Spore does come out of EA, I will not experience something like what happened to Dawngate. |
| 00:17.15 | dinoman9877 | Well the Wii servers are down now, only Wii U's have internet access, so it's said. |
| 00:17.21 | Wormy_STO | STO sometimes demands 10 GB updates |
| 00:17.31 | dinoman9877 | So if they don't have SimEarth now...the likely never will. |
| 00:17.33 | TekDroid | It's a little confusing, but interesting. |
| 00:17.35 | The_Randomness | i.e. something that was seriously promising getting axed before release |
| 00:17.40 | Technobliterator | Honestly, any new Spore game, good or bad, will be enough |
| 00:17.56 | TekDroid | ^ |
| 00:18.00 | Technobliterator | to revitalise us |
| 00:18.09 | Technobliterator | and show we're not dead |
| 00:18.28 | dinoman9877 | We're the last of a dying breed, aren't we? |
| 00:18.42 | The_Randomness | Yeah. I wouldn't be too surprised if they are considering making another one right now to be honest, after hearing about the game's continued popularity. |
| 00:18.49 | TekDroid | At worst a bad Spore sequel might also jumpstart some serious and good quality indie attempts like what happened with SimCity. |
| 00:19.07 | The_Randomness | Good point |
| 00:19.19 | dinoman9877 | Can Spore get any worse? We saw how it degraded since it was first shown in 2005. |
| 00:19.48 | dinoman9877 | There's not much more that EA can do wrong to it. |
| 00:19.48 | Technobliterator | We're not a dying breed, really |
| 00:19.48 | TekDroid | It's EA. They can make it worse |
| 00:19.51 | dinoman9877 | Good point. |
| 00:19.54 | Technobliterator | The game still sells today, and again, we still to this day have new people joining |
| 00:19.55 | Monet | One issue might be that if we are to get a successor to the original, we're going ot need a visionary like WIll Wright was. |
| 00:20.00 | TekDroid | But we're definitely not gone. We get new users consistently. |
| 00:20.11 | dinoman9877 | Will let his vision get tainted. |
| 00:20.24 | dinoman9877 | And the gaming community tossed him aside for what he did. |
| 00:20.37 | Technobliterator | Admittedly, those new people only edit the fictionverse |
| 00:20.38 | Monet | But it was his initial vision that started the project |
| 00:20.55 | dinoman9877 | As in trolling or just fixing things they see? |
| 00:20.57 | TekDroid | Steam sales for Spore are common and always are popular when they do, and provide us new members |
| 00:21.05 | Monet | I don't think any old suit could have come up with the Massively SIngeplayer idea |
| 00:21.20 | TekDroid | ^ |
| 00:21.36 | dinoman9877 | No, but no one would know of EA's reputation and still let them take over without having some issues. |
| 00:21.50 | dinoman9877 | I respect Will for who he was. He was a gaming genius. |
| 00:21.58 | dinoman9877 | But Spore tossed him from his throne. |
| 00:22.49 | Wormy_STO | People moan a lot about a few lost features but i have listened to Will's vision closely, and Spore still achieves a lot of it. Consider its creativity, Will wanted it to inspire a form of storytelling beyond the game, and that is what it has exactly done with all these fanfiction sites, including our fiction universe. |
| 00:23.17 | dinoman9877 | But Spore also is nothing compared to some ideas of the game. |
| 00:23.34 | dinoman9877 | There's no food chain or even food web. Stuff just kills each other randomly. |
| 00:23.35 | The_Randomness | Wormy_STO: I agree |
| 00:23.40 | Monet | Some ideas, okay, they probably could have stuck with like the Aquatic stage |
| 00:23.45 | TekDroid | Definitely Wormy. |
| 00:23.55 | Monet | But some ideas are bound to not make the cut |
| 00:24.09 | Wormy_STO | But that was never part of the core of Spore;s gameplay, they were part of the additional complexity, which it did regretfully lose. |
| 00:24.14 | Technobliterator | EA ruined it all |
| 00:24.25 | Technobliterator | And I still say we should delete our EA page because of it |
| 00:24.40 | Technobliterator | As true Spore fans we should tell them to fuck off |
| 00:24.50 | dinoman9877 | I'm with Techno on this one. Or at least edit it to point out how stupid they are! |
| 00:25.09 | Wormy_STO | And anyway, Will Wright is probably living it up and is very rich. If he wanted to make more games he would have done. But it sounds like he much more behind the scenes now. |
| 00:25.32 | Monet | I recall talking with my lecturers about Star Wars, and while I can't remember the full conversation, I think he mentioned that one of the reasons Episode I sucked was because it was built on ideas from Episode IV that were originally rejected |
| 00:25.38 | Wormy_STO | I've heard he wanted to make a crowd sourcing game but I don't hear much updates about it |
| 00:25.40 | DrodoEmpire | Again, that'll do literally nothing but make us look bad. |
| 00:25.41 | Technobliterator | I think we should just delete it and link to the Wikipedia article throughout the wiki |
| 00:25.42 | dinoman9877 | Has Will Wright even said anything since the Spore craze began dying down? |
| 00:26.08 | DrodoEmpire | Linking the wikipedia article is certainly more reasonable, but I'm still hesitant |
| 00:26.22 | The_Randomness | I agree with Drodo here |
| 00:26.36 | Wormy_STO | Yes |
| 00:26.51 | The_Randomness | Deleting the EA page on our wiki is nothing short of childish, despite what they have done. |
| 00:26.55 | Technobliterator | Let's be honest, who browses our wiki to find out about EA? |
| 00:27.03 | Wormy_STO | http://fortune.com/2013/06/25/design-genius-will-wright-wants-to-make-a-game-of-your-life/ |
| 00:27.17 | Monet | What's the point as well? |
| 00:27.28 | DrodoEmpire | Just the motive of "EA sucks therefore we should delete the page to make us all feel better!" turns me off from the idea of even linking to the wikipedia page |
| 00:27.31 | Technobliterator | And most of the page is off-topic and irrelevant to Spore |
| 00:27.37 | Monet | There's no point to doing something like that unless we know someone is going to notice |
| 00:27.47 | DrodoEmpire | You're making up secondary justifications for the idea, Tech. |
| 00:27.55 | *** join/#sporewiki Comrade_Vinny (b8a1360d@gateway/web/freenode/ip.184.161.54.13) |

| 00:28.10 | Wormy_STO | http://gamasutra.com/view/news/242605/Video_Will_Wright_tries_to_design_humanitys_last_game.php |
| 00:28.14 | Technobliterator | We do not need a Maxis page, eithee |
| 00:28.14 | Technobliterator | r |
| 00:28.16 | Wormy_STO | I juast found that |
| 00:28.20 | DrodoEmpire | Like many pages it could use cleanup, but removing it entirely is silly |
| 00:28.22 | Technobliterator | Or any other developers |
| 00:28.50 | Technobliterator | It does not need a cleanup, there is very little to say about it within the context of Spore |
| 00:28.55 | Wormy_STO | No, I object to these motions. |
| 00:29.24 | DrodoEmpire | That's three against two, Tech. Let it go. |
| 00:29.39 | dinoman9877 | I object to everything! Everyone let it go! |
| 00:29.43 | The_Randomness | Then why do the wikis of other games include pages about their publishers? |
| 00:29.46 | Technobliterator | All we can say, without being irrelevant to the wiki, is "Electronic Arts is a videogame publisher that published Spore." |
| 00:30.05 | Wormy_STO | Maybe we could orient the Maxis and EA page to be more Spore related (i.e. development and marketing) |
| 00:30.19 | Technobliterator | Other wikis of other games shouldn't do it either, unless there's really a lot to say |
| 00:30.57 | Technobliterator | And in our case, there is nothing to say, other than "they exist, they publish Spore games, now go to the Wikipedia article if you want to learn more" |
| 00:30.58 | Wormy_STO | There's volumes out there on both development and marketing of Spore, plus our existing pages need a massive overhaul anyway. |
| 00:31.11 | Monet | Technobliterator: Then feel free to petition the FFWiki to do the same with Square Enix's page |
| 00:31.13 | dinoman9877 | SHHHHHH! I hear people wanting something...Dropping the topic! |
| 00:31.16 | Technobliterator | Why not just link to the Wikipedia article then |
| 00:31.50 | Technobliterator | Square Enix did more than publish the Final Fantasy games, but yes, I have said many times there I oppose coverage of personnel articles |
| 00:32.08 | Wormy_STO | I don't like that practise, I find it rather appalling a lot of our articles are/were ripped from ancient Wikipedia edits. |
| 00:32.08 | Monet | Oh o you have talked to them about it |
| 00:32.29 | Monet | In which case, I'll go AFK for a bit |
| 00:32.53 | Technobliterator | Exactly, if we're just going to copy Wikipedia, why not link to them instead? |
| 00:32.55 | dinoman9877 | CAN WE JUST CHANGE THE SUBJECT?! |
| 00:33.03 | Technobliterator | Because? |
| 00:33.12 | *** part/#sporewiki MonetAway (05975310@gateway/web/freenode/ip.5.151.83.16) |
| 00:33.28 | DrodoEmpire | Can we just drop the subject? Its beating a dead horse. |
| 00:33.30 | DrodoEmpire | :p |
| 00:34.01 | Technobliterator | I've yet to hear an argument for keeping these pages I've been convinced by, so no ;) |
| 00:34.05 | DrodoEmpire | This is what? The third, fourth time its been brought up? Lets just not talk about it because it isn't going through. |
| 00:34.29 | dinoman9877 | Okay, how about it would be childish of us to delete them and lazy of us to link to Wikipedia? |
| 00:34.32 | dinoman9877 | Done? Done. |
| 00:34.48 | Technobliterator | I would question who gave you the authority to say it "isn't going through" |
| 00:34.59 | dinoman9877 | Now let's talk about how my alien swarm is going to conquer the universe! |
| 00:35.06 | Wormy_STO | I don't agree with this because it sounds like a secondary justification, and that grinds against everything with me and editing, and secondly, I don't see why we can't improve those articles with a bit of elbow grease. There is plenty we could add, I don't agree there is nothing to add. |
| 00:35.20 | DrodoEmpire | ...Because its three against one/two? |
| 00:35.30 | Technobliterator | It's not childish deleting a page we don't want; it's not lazy deleting a page we have little to write about |
| 00:35.38 | DrodoEmpire | "we"? |
| 00:35.40 | Technobliterator | Good thing this wiki is a democracy, then. Oh, wait. |
| 00:35.47 | DrodoEmpire | Obviously, the community isn't on your side. |
| 00:35.54 | Technobliterator | ;) |
| 00:36.01 | DrodoEmpire | Oh, yeah, but these are *admins* and *staff* that are arguing |
| 00:36.14 | dinoman9877 | Sometimes I wish I actually did have an alien swarm... |
| 00:36.19 | Cyrannian | People are getting too worked up about this, people have every right to discuss things like this. If you disagree with what Jo is saying, provide counter-arguments in a civil manner or simply don't say anything, it's really quite simple. |
| 00:36.35 | DrodoEmpire | Except that\s what we;ve been doing, Cyrannian. |
| 00:37.14 | Wormy_STO | The thing is, I assumed this wiki was about *everything* Spore related. So why not corporate articles? |
| 00:37.22 | dinoman9877 | Someone tell me when the subject has been dropped. *Fizzles into a microscopic particle* |
| 00:37.43 | Wormy_STO | And yes, there are people out there generally interested in reading, researching and editing such pages. |
| 00:38.39 | Technobliterator | Wormy_STO, if someone can find more than a paragraph or two to say about EA within the context of Spore, I will agree to corporation articles |
| 00:38.45 | Wormy_STO | If we start throwing out pages on a whim, because we deem them unrelated, then why not the fiction universe? |
| 00:38.49 | Technobliterator | However, I cannot think of much |
| 00:38.51 | Technobliterator | That said |
| 00:39.07 | Wormy_STO | Then maybe that is what we should be doing first. |
| 00:39.08 | Technobliterator | We are better off making a thread on the wiki about this |
| 00:39.12 | dinoman9877 | NO ONE IS KILLING MY SWARM!!!! |
| 00:39.14 | Technobliterator | This IRC discussion is going nowhere |
| 00:39.30 | Technobliterator | I shall open it |
| 00:39.54 | Wormy_STO | No, its gone somewhere, because you've already changed your stance a little ;) |
| 00:40.11 | Technobliterator | Sort of :o |
| 00:40.53 | dinoman9877 | I say we talk about other things now! |
| 00:41.34 | Technobliterator | Sure |
| 00:42.11 | dinoman9877 | Out of curiosity, has anyone seen Knight Alien? |
| 00:43.05 | dinoman9877 | Silence is a no. |
| 00:43.07 | DrodoEmpire | Not recently, I'm afraid. |
| 00:43.11 | Comrade_Vinny | Not this weak, I think he is in vacation or something |
| 00:43.41 | dinoman9877 | Problematic this is. Cuz now I actually want to work on our fiction! |
| 00:44.19 | dinoman9877 | The thing has been dormant for over a year and I'm sure he hates me! |
| 00:45.47 | DrodoEmpire | pats dino on the back; "Its okay. I hate you too." |
| 00:45.51 | Wormy_STO | Goodnight |
| 00:46.13 | dinoman9877 | How reassuring... |

| 00:48.35 | dinoman9877 | I do it out of hate! <3 |

| 00:49.07 | The_Randomness | lol |
| 00:49.45 | dinoman9877 | Okay...guys riding on horses versus tyrannosaurus sized lizard bugs with mace tails. |
| 00:49.50 | dinoman9877 | 'horses' |
| 00:50.34 | dinoman9877 | And those aren't even the biggest ones... |
| 00:52.29 | DrodoEmpire | Mechanical horses with armour plating, and energy shielding capable of blocking machine gun bullets and even small artillery at their heaviest. |
| 00:52.54 | DrodoEmpire | And the riders with vibrosabres, power-lances capable of penetrating tank armour, and armed with pistols, assault rifles, grenade launchers, and RPGs |

| 00:55.18 | DrodoEmpire | dinoman: oh yeah and infantry supporting them with assault rifles, crew-served machine guns, artillery batteries ranging from small field guns to massive siege works, and then of course the navy |
| 00:55.28 | DrodoEmpire | Which could lend a hand in bombing your swarm to bits from orbit |
| 00:55.53 | DrodoEmpire | :p |
| 00:56.06 | dinoman9877 | Did I mention we have creatures capble of interrupting energy currents? |
| 00:56.10 | dinoman9877 | *capable |

| 00:57.50 | dinoman9877 | Well...evolution of a genetically mutated monstrosity... |
| 00:57.51 | DrodoEmpire | Organic =/= Better. |
| 00:58.14 | dinoman9877 | Inorganic =/= Better. |
| 00:58.23 | DrodoEmpire | Not to stomp on "rule of cool" (I use it all of the time), but just because you havea swarm of mutants that doesn't mean they're unstoppable. |
| 00:58.33 | DrodoEmpire | Ehh |
| 00:58.35 | dinoman9877 | Oh I acknowledge that. |
| 00:58.55 | dinoman9877 | But you aren't invunerable just because they don't have fancy pulse guns and energy shields. |
| 00:59.03 | DrodoEmpire | They... Don't have pulse guns. XD |
| 00:59.07 | DrodoEmpire | But no I'm not |
| 00:59.15 | dinoman9877 | IT WAS A FIGURE OF SPEECH! |
| 00:59.43 | dinoman9877 | But if you're willing to nuke hundreds of planets until all life is completely wiped out on them, be my guest. |
| 00:59.47 | DrodoEmpire | But I *do* know from historical precedence that a swarm of little critters is pretty easily blown-away by well-placed machine guns. XD Keep that in mind |
| 01:00.26 | dinoman9877 | The main question is can you kill them faster than they can reproduce. |
| 01:00.56 | dinoman9877 | Colonial animals breed fast. We know this to be true. |
| 01:01.09 | DrodoEmpire | Well... Possibly. Combat and war cannot be brought down to an equation |
| 01:01.18 | DrodoEmpire | Because it is so random and dependant on the actions of generals |
| 01:01.37 | DrodoEmpire | If I were to use nuclear weapons or some other sort of WMD, possibly |
| 01:01.55 | DrodoEmpire | If I were a colonial garrison whose largest asset was a division of tanks, probably not! |
| 01:02.02 | dinoman9877 | But you know where the Swarm likes it best? On inhabited planets... |
| 01:02.39 | dinoman9877 | Most empires won't nuke their own people. (Most.) And the Swarm likes messing with evacuation procedures. |
| 01:05.09 | dinoman9877 | Kinda mad that I can't work on the thing though... |

| 14:52.37 | DrodoEmpire_ | I took a *few* liberties with the uniform design, sort-of making it in the style of the mid-late 1800's though I also incorporated a few Klaxxa fashion traits I noticed (the sort of "side-skirts" some of them have, fairly high collars, etc.) |

| 17:43.00 | Monet | He's like Sheldon Cooper I guess - pretentious arse who is always convinced he's right, but has not been fired yet because he's too useful. |
| 17:46.40 | Monet | Found a good example |
| 17:48.26 | Monet | He gets a cadaveour to run an MRI scan, so he shoots it in the head to see if he can scan the bullet. People run in panicking after he just fired ad he tells his boss "You're mad that I put a bullet in the guy's head. Worst case scenario, all I'm going to do is take it out." His repsonse to what is expected when a metal bullet meets a giant superconducting magnet? "Oops, my bad." |

| 18:13.20 | Imperios | Thinking of a weapon for noble Klaxxa warriors |
| 18:13.56 | Imperios | Come to think about it, Klaxxa do not even benefit that much from guns strictly speaking, especially those of them who are more draconic |
| 18:14.35 | Hachiman | Hm |
| 18:14.42 | Hachiman | Could give them something like handheld discus |
| 18:14.45 | Imperios | They can breathe fire and fly, so they neither do have a need for a powerful ranged weapon nor would need it in air - guns are heavy and require some time to prepare and aim |
| 18:15.09 | Imperios | That, and I imagine the most snooty nobles would dismiss guns as peasants' weaponry |

| 18:18.36 | Hachiman | Fucking Egyptians why could you not use proper armour |
| 18:18.41 | OluapWorker | I thought Klaxxa breathed steam |

| 18:19.18 | Imperios | Yes they do, and breathing superheated steam at someone is painful as fuck |
| 18:19.33 | OluapWorker | Steam is not fire make up your mind hur |
| 18:19.40 | Monet | What about post-Alexandrian Egypt? |
| 18:19.53 | Xho | Well those were Romans so |
| 18:19.57 | Xho | Probably no armour either |
| 18:20.16 | Xho | Roman attitudes towards the Egyptians were rather hostile so I can't imagine Egypt had a strong military at that point |
| 18:20.26 | Hachiman | Hostile |
| 18:20.33 | Hachiman | Didn't Cleopatra fuck a Roman once or twice |
| 18:20.38 | Xho | Marcus Antonius |
| 18:20.41 | Monet | More than that |
| 18:20.45 | Xho | Yeah this was before Rome took it over in 30 BC |
| 18:21.02 | OluapWorker | titanpad pls |
| 18:21.18 | Xho | When Rome was declared an empire in 27 BC much of the attitudes towards Egypt wasn't brilliant at first |
| 18:21.22 | Monet | Antonius conspired with her to take over Rome, then he betrayed her and she had a snake bite her |
| 18:21.37 | Xho | Pretty much |
| 18:21.58 | Monet | Worst part was he ditched her after she was with child |
| 18:22.06 | Xho | And then Cleopatra's son was murdered as he was the last legitimate ruler of Egypt |
| 18:22.10 | Xho | Augustus wasn't having that |
| 18:22.46 | Xho | That and Caesarion was likely the only son of Julius Caesar so he had a legitimate claim to Rome as well |
| 18:23.28 | Xho | Augustus pretty much fucked Egypt over so that it would remain obedient in Rome |
| 18:23.43 | Monet | And that's how you build an empire folks |
| 18:24.07 | Hachiman | http://i.imgur.com/omJDnAF.png?1 Kinda what I have so far |
| 18:24.34 | Hachiman | I am just wondering whether Ankhor warriors would wear stuff like full-plate armour or something# |
| 18:24.39 | Hachiman | Or keep it restricted |
| 18:24.43 | Xho | They couldn't be overtly controlling on Egypt though as Egypt was a massive source of the Roman Empire's grain intake |
| 18:25.10 | Monet | Hachiman: Full plate armour was unpopular in hot climates irrc |
| 18:25.19 | Monet | Lamellar plate comes close though |
| 18:25.25 | Xho | Or chitin of some sort |
| 18:26.43 | Xho | And then Christianity took root in Egypt |
| 18:27.24 | Xho | Though much of the religious conversion was because the old religion of Egypt was slowly whittled away by invading Persian and Greek culture over the centuries |
| 18:28.07 | Monet | And then the Ottomans came ,right? |
| 18:28.36 | Imperios | Not Ottomans |
| 18:28.37 | Imperios | Arabs |
| 18:28.52 | Xho | Yeah the Arabs |
| 18:28.57 | Xho | Then the Ottomans more or less |
| 18:29.11 | Monet | Right |
| 18:29.13 | Imperios | Ottomans are like late Medieval/early Renaissance I think |
| 18:29.19 | Xho | Though that's a little far out of my knowledge |
| 18:29.23 | Xho | Ottomans are like 1600s |
| 18:29.29 | Xho | Well |
| 18:29.32 | Xho | 1600 - 1800 ish |
| 18:30.21 | Xho | It also went Byzantine before the Arabs as well hur |
| 18:30.42 | Xho | If one considers Rome and Byzantium separate |
| 18:31.15 | Imperios | Arabs did not outright exterminate Egyptians though, right now Egyptians are genetically mostly the same as they were before |
| 18:31.42 | Imperios | They just imposed their culture and (mostly) faith, though they allowed some Christians to remain provided that they bend their knee |
| 18:40.17 | Hachiman | Right so I am calling the Ankhor military guy Shuseisi |
| 18:40.49 | Hachiman | Originally it was gonna be one of Khyannarith's sons but I decided to turn him into the head of Khyannarith's personal guard instead |
| 18:41.07 | OluapWorker | meow man |
| 18:45.08 | Hachiman | I am beginning to have fun coming up with naming conventions for my creatures now |
| 18:45.36 | Hachiman | For Ankhor, the beginning of the name, like say "Khyan" or "Shu", is actually the surname while the following component of the name is a forename |
| 18:45.47 | Hachiman | Or rather a given name |
| 18:45.47 | OluapWorker | Shu'rimrodir - ma son |
| 18:46.27 | Xho | Narith Khyan Khyannarith - NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH |
| 18:49.16 | Imperios | Narithkhyan |
| 18:49.28 | Imperios | Armenian cats hur |
| 18:50.36 | Xho | Armenian names are pretty awesome |
| 18:50.51 | Imperios | Unless it's Kardashian |
| 18:51.03 | Xho | ew |
| 18:51.42 | Imperios | Or, worse yet, Sarkeesian |
| 18:51.52 | Xho | Khachaturian is a good one |
| 18:52.27 | Imperios | It's so good that we call *all* Caucasians, Armenian or not, "khach" |
| 18:52.35 | Imperios | Or "hach", or "hachi" in plural, etc |
| 18:52.40 | Hachiman | Khachiman |
| 18:53.00 | Imperios | Khachimyan |
| 18:53.01 | Xho | Even though 'khach' is Armenian for 'cross' |
| 18:53.04 | Imperios | Yeah |
| 18:53.26 | Imperios | Which makes this ethnic slur especially stupid because we sometimes broaden it to "all Muslims" |

| 19:04.22 | Monet | Hmm |
| 19:04.35 | Monet | I wouldn't call it generic at all |
| 19:07.16 | Imperios | I am afraid that the opposite is true - that is, that it carries too much of an ethnic flavour |
| 19:07.58 | Monet | Ah |
| 19:08.12 | Monet | Hmm never really associated Janissaries with Victorians |
| 19:09.20 | Imperios | Well that is the point, I am trying to give Klaxxa a more diverse inspiration so that they would be something more than a species of funny ethnic sterotypes |

| 20:31.53 | Hachiman | Go away pls |
| 20:32.03 | dinoman9877 | D; |
| 20:32.23 | dinoman9877 | Fine. I'll go away for good! *Goes to grab a gallon of bleach* |
| 20:32.31 | Hachiman | Do an Amanda Todd |
| 20:34.58 | dinoman9877 | But what'd I do to deserve being told to bugger off anyway? |
| 20:34.58 | Hachiman | Not being the real Dinoman |
| 20:34.59 | dinoman9877 | Well I'm not a fake. |
| 20:34.59 | dinoman9877 | There's just more than one. |
| 20:34.59 | Ghel | Yeah, but Dinoman82 is the original Dinoman. |
| 20:34.59 | dinoman9877 | Can you not handle there being a multitude in our species? |
| 20:34.59 | Ghel | Or maybe he's the 82nd. |
| 20:34.59 | Hachiman | But this means Dinoman9877 is the 9877nd which still means he came after Dinoman82 |
| 20:35.12 | Hachiman | 9877th even |
| 20:35.27 | dinoman9877 | Well actually the number refers to a year and then just two sevens because why not... |
| 20:35.29 | dinoman9877 | But okay... |
| 20:35.30 | Ghel | And a lot of Dinomen must have come in between. |
| 20:35.53 | dinoman9877 | Plus I've been using this username since I first entered the world wide web... |
| 20:36.54 | Ghel | I know dino82 is probably the oldest of us here, but I don't know if the 82 in his name also refers to a year. |
| 20:37.01 | Hachiman | Hm |
| 20:37.19 | Hachiman | I might give all Ankhor males musculature now |
| 20:37.40 | OluapWorker | fit cats |

| 20:38.04 | Hachiman | *grains cus desert |
| 20:38.11 | OluapWorker | muh gains |
| 20:38.23 | dinoman9877 | How was I supposed to know that there was another dinoman here when I joined the wiki? |
| 20:38.35 | Hachiman | I dunno why but I just like putting pecs and packs on male creatures now hur |
| 20:39.01 | dinoman9877 | I may consider redoing the design of my swarm. I dunno. Hur. |
| 20:39.05 | dinoman9877 | Oh look, Knight is here. |
| 20:39.36 | Ghel | If they all play sports and have a good diet (because poor diets are what second-class citizens are for) then it would make sense for some to have some noticable muscles, although marathon-runners less than boxers, for example. |
| 20:39.52 | Hachiman | Aye |
| 20:39.59 | Hachiman | Ankhor are a very sporty and active people |
| 20:40.11 | Hachiman | http://i.imgur.com/GSOE5NK.png?1 also y no wun comment on shuseisi |
| 20:40.25 | OluapWorker | cus it suks dik |
| 20:40.54 | Hachiman | Is it really not that good hur |
| 20:41.30 | Technobliterator | Well |
| 20:41.37 | Technobliterator | I think Wormy is the oldest here, not dino |
| 20:41.40 | Technobliterator | I might be wrong : | |
| 20:41.47 | Wormy_ | Dino is older |
| 20:41.51 | Technobliterator | or is Oluap oldest here ?_? |
| 20:42.00 | Wormy_ | Oluap is about 1 year older |
| 20:42.38 | OluapWorker | Dino is the oldest user age-wise |
| 20:42.42 | Wormy_ | As for the inactive users, Viceman, and I assume Ose and Morgoth are older |
| 20:42.49 | OluapWorker | I'm the oldest user joined-the-wiki wise |
| 20:43.29 | OluapWorker | Viceman |
| 20:43.31 | Wormy_ | I'll be 21 this month |
| 20:43.32 | OluapWorker | Don't think I know this one |
| 20:43.57 | Ghel | Viceman was never really part of the community, but he did make some very well-detailed fiction. |
| 20:44.00 | Wormy_ | He was a legend http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/User%3AViceMan |

| 20:44.48 | OluapWorker | Oh I remember that page |
| 20:44.53 | OluapWorker | I always liked the pictures |
| 20:45.16 | Wormy_ | He left when we changed the wiki to a darker colour. |
| 20:45.34 | OluapWorker | he's afraid of the dark |
| 20:45.38 | Ghel | I wonder if the {{construction}} should be removed since he's not coming back and the page looks complete enough without it. |
| 20:45.53 | OluapWorker | Probably yeah |
| 20:46.01 | Wormy_ | Didn't Xho makean image likev this? http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/spore/images/7/76/Oronusiil.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20090320104541 |

| 20:51.18 | drom | Huh, undead exist in Star Wars' universe |
| 20:51.25 | drom | I never thought it would. |
| 20:55.11 | Technobliterator | I would say so |
| 20:55.29 | Technobliterator | {{construction}} should only be around if we know it's being worked on |
| 20:55.32 | OluapWorker | dumba |
| 20:58.25 | Hachiman | I forgot to put gauntlets on Shuseisi |
| 20:58.32 | Technobliterator | "Ray'loth - GET IN MA BELLY" |
| 20:58.33 | Technobliterator | hahahahaha |
| 20:58.39 | Hachiman | Oh well fuck it he can stay like that |
| 20:59.02 | Hachiman | I also decided to give the Ankhor females a smaller general bust size |
| 20:59.38 | Xho | That's a first |
| 20:59.50 | OluapWorker | kek |
| 21:00.14 | Technobliterator | niiiice :o |
| 21:00.35 | Technobliterator | no Kralgon Emperor in |
| 21:00.36 | Technobliterator | daw |
| 21:00.46 | OluapWorker | I'd not throw him into a demon horde |
| 21:00.48 | OluapWorker | Now ded |
| 21:02.15 | Xho | I am very tempted to rename the Legion of Shiarchon to the Adravaelic Empire |
| 21:02.20 | Xho | Which is their name in Dark Elvish |
| 21:02.57 | Hachiman | Fair enough |
| 21:03.04 | Xho | Adravaelii being the actual name for a Shiarchon |
| 21:03.11 | Monet | So apparently HSBC is moving to Hong Kong due to "Rising tax pressures". Fucking. Cowards. |
| 21:04.18 | Xho | I thought HSBC came from Hong Kong in the first place |
| 21:04.33 | Monet | No idea |
| 21:04.46 | drom | Why not move to Luxemburg? They literaly have no taxes. |
| 21:04.54 | Hachiman | Hong Song Bong Chong |
| 21:05.02 | Xho | Oh wait it's headquartered in London |
| 21:05.10 | Xho | Originated from Hong Kong |
| 21:05.24 | Xho | "Hongkong and Shanghai Banking Corporation" |
| 21:06.07 | Monet | And they're moving back because of increasing pressure that they pay the taxes they haven't paid. |
| 21:06.23 | drom | The fuck is HSBC anyway? |
| 21:06.29 | Monet | drom: A bank |
| 21:06.38 | drom | Ah |
| 21:06.44 | Xho | Largest bank in the UK |
| 21:07.27 | drom | Reminds me of all this tax paradise soup in Europe |
| 21:07.40 | Xho | I can't exactly remember how I got the word 'Adravaelii' |
| 21:07.42 | drom | By soup, I mean shenangians and mess |
| 21:07.48 | Xho | I think it was a corruption of the word 'Dryadali' |
| 21:07.51 | drom | shenanigans even |
| 21:08.23 | Hachiman | You got it from |
| 21:08.25 | Hachiman | Apadravya |
| 21:08.31 | Xho | ur an apadravya |
| 21:08.46 | Xho | or the thing an apadravya is on |
| 21:09.15 | Hachiman | A bellend |
| 21:09.20 | Xho | But yeah the Dark Elvish for 'Adravaelic Empire' is 'Aá¹verôm AdrávǽliisÇ£varasÃs' which sorta translates to 'Imperium of All Adravaelii' so basically 'Adravaelic Empire' |
| 21:09.25 | Xho | yeh ur a bellend |
| 21:10.46 | Xho | The Old Tongue name for the Adravaelic Empire is 'Novum Imperium Dryadalum' |
| 21:10.50 | Xho | Which means 'New Elven Empire' |

| 22:29.51 | The_Randomness | I personally find tanking in a lot of games fun :3 |
| 22:29.54 | Technobliterator | for the others, it's 3 tanks, 6 healers and 15 dps |
| 22:30.09 | Technobliterator | oh fuck yes finally got in |
| 22:30.11 | Technobliterator | oh my god |
| 22:30.27 | Technobliterator | and now I'm so overgeared for this dungeon I can cheese it and hope my team are half confident |
| 22:30.27 | External | I can't stop looking at this because it's so funny: https://www.facebook.com/HilariousCrazyVines/videos/415514361984241/ |
| 22:31.03 | Monet | Could be worse. |
| 22:31.20 | Monet | My tank days in WoW were dogged by healers that quit after the first wipe. |
| 22:31.39 | Technobliterator | oh, yeah |
| 22:31.45 | Technobliterator | you get the odd impatient tank like that |
| 22:32.24 | Technobliterator | What I love about the CT quests are just how faithful they are to FFIII |
| 22:32.33 | Monet | Half the time it was because i died due to a healer that couldn't cope. |
| 22:32.35 | Technobliterator | I mean, that's one of the games in the franchise very few people care for and remember |
| 22:32.38 | Technobliterator | yet it's so faitfhul |
| 22:33.08 | Technobliterator | unlike the XIII devs, the XIV devs really love their series |
| 22:33.34 | Technobliterator | so many references |
| 22:46.56 | External | test |
| 22:47.47 | Hachiman | Technobliterator: So if I get this straight, is FFXIV an attempt by the developer to renew and update FFXII? |
| 22:47.57 | Hachiman | Or XI even |
| 22:48.09 | Hachiman | Oh wait no XII |
| 22:48.12 | Technobliterator | Not really, no |
| 22:48.20 | Technobliterator | and XI is the MMO |
| 22:48.47 | Technobliterator | They're both Final Fantasy games, they're both MMOs, but they're very different |
| 22:49.46 | Hachiman | I find XII to be rather similar to XIV in regards to the races, setting, primary antagonist and such |
| 22:50.05 | Technobliterator | XII is a single player ga,e |
| 22:50.07 | Technobliterator | game |
| 22:50.13 | Technobliterator | and all the games are similar to XIV |
| 22:50.17 | Technobliterator | It references all of them heavily |
| 22:50.27 | Hachiman | Yeah that makes sense hur |
| 22:50.28 | Aeo | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Aeoneonatrix#Justice_System New Section |
| 22:50.51 | Technobliterator | though yeah the antagonists from XIV are a lot like XII |
| 22:51.15 | Technobliterator | then again |
| 22:51.22 | Technobliterator | you have Materia used often - a thing from FFVII |
| 22:51.33 | Technobliterator | and lots of references to Magitek - an FFVI thing |
| 22:51.43 | Technobliterator | it's basically FFIX the MMO, which similarly, was a culmination of all the games before it |
| 22:52.47 | Hachiman | So would you say it was the best in the series? |
| 22:53.14 | Hachiman | inb4 no obviously FFVII is best because it is so not heavily overrated |
| 22:54.29 | Technobliterator | uh |
| 22:54.31 | Technobliterator | FFIX? |
| 22:55.04 | Hachiman | FFXIV hur |
| 22:55.17 | Technobliterator | oh, nah |
| 22:55.23 | Technobliterator | I love FFXII and FFVI too much |
| 22:55.30 | Technobliterator | but I do rate it very highly |
| 22:55.47 | Hachiman | What would you say are the problems with FFXIV? |
| 22:58.56 | Technobliterator | Problems? Well |
| 22:59.07 | Technobliterator | No massive ones, honestly |
| 23:00.06 | Technobliterator | I put it in the same category as FFIX - which I think is objectively the best in the series - a game that references the others a lot, does not come with any significant flaws and is an awesome experience overall, but doesn't have as much charm as some of the others do |
| 23:03.54 | Hachiman | Fair enough, in my time in FFXIV I have yet to come across anything I can really complain about hur |
| 23:05.16 | Technobliterator | There's not much, except for maybe the VAing early on |
| 23:05.26 | Hachiman | Or lack thereof |
| 23:05.43 | Technobliterator | Have you met the Scions yet? |
| 23:05.54 | Hachiman | I have met Y'shtola |
| 23:05.59 | Hachiman | But other than that nah |
| 23:06.13 | Technobliterator | You will initially find them bland and their voices annoying, but you will grow on them a lot |
| 23:06.26 | Hachiman | I do not find Y'shtola that annoying |
| 23:06.30 | Hachiman | I think she is cute hur |
