10:27.35 | OluapPlayer | Charles_Murray: Hi. I should let you know you put some of your colonies in Junction territory |
10:28.19 | Charles_Murray | Oh I did? Sorry! Which ones? |
10:28.34 | OluapPlayer | All of the Eastern Arm ones |
10:28.51 | Charles_Murray | o.o |
10:29.15 | Charles_Murray | Hm. It's not marked on any of the maps, I'm afraid |
10:29.24 | Charles_Murray | I'll endeavor to move them, apologies |
10:29.27 | OluapPlayer | Yes it is |
10:29.30 | OluapPlayer | On the territory map |
10:30.09 | OluapPlayer | You got into Borealis because of Jo. You should preferably keep to Ottzello |
10:31.05 | Charles_Murray | I also asked you for permission separately, and on a whole unrelated thread? :O |
10:31.24 | OluapPlayer | I don't recall |
10:31.46 | Charles_Murray | I'll find the thread |
10:32.43 | OluapPlayer | In any case, a number of sectors are off-limits |
10:32.50 | Charles_Murray | I ask: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:198915#18 |
10:32.57 | OluapPlayer | The Grim Reaper sector is one of them on the basis of it being 100% Junction controlled |
10:33.05 | Charles_Murray | You respond: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:198915#20 |
10:33.30 | Charles_Murray | That makes perfect sense, I didn't see it. I'll move them. |
10:33.46 | OluapPlayer | You can't really expect me to remember something from 8 months ago |
10:35.24 | OluapPlayer | Hm. I suppose you couldn't find it because the territory map is no longer on the main page |
10:35.38 | Charles_Murray | ^ |
10:35.52 | OluapPlayer | Must have been deleted during the unused file purge |
10:36.31 | OluapPlayer | Anyway, you know it now |
10:37.26 | Charles_Murray | Mhm! Do you have any recommendations where there would be a lot of andasium |
10:37.26 | Charles_Murray | ? |
10:37.28 | OluapPlayer | Also I would prefer if you added either an exact or an estimate colony number |
10:38.36 | OluapPlayer | Which arm? |
10:39.16 | Charles_Murray | It's probably going to be well under 500, though the reason I hesitated to add one is because it's always going to be changing. Most of the CW's systems are temporary settlements, bases for mining operations which are abandoned once andasium runs out. If you want to count permanent systems, I would say about six major spaceports. |
10:39.35 | Charles_Murray | Any arm, I can spread out the colonies |
10:40.27 | OluapPlayer | Your safest, as in most guaranteed and less dangerous, would be the Outer Core |
10:41.39 | OluapPlayer | The east probably has more andasium than the west, but it's infested with space pirates, mercenaries and if you look hard enough, demons |
10:42.03 | OluapPlayer | The Outer Core is a safe middle ground |
10:42.24 | Charles_Murray | Also UNO (right?), and France vowed never to settle there again. xD |
10:42.52 | Charles_Murray | I'll revisit the map as soon as I can and edit in the colony number. Thanks for your help! |

18:22.32 | Wormy_ | I did not intend the minute to be that precise. |
18:23.12 | Wormy_ | My IP address... This is escalating |
18:23.44 | Wormy_ | I think you might like the film Pi (just "Pi", not life of Pi), mixes the themes of synchronicity and numerology |
18:24.49 | Wormy_ | The socially avoident guy who happens to be a mathematician goes nuts in the end after he uncovers a number, with Wall Street and religious nutters going after him |

18:43.38 | Xho | Well fighting a Level 540 enemy is next to impossible |
18:43.59 | Xho | You can last the fight but there's no weapon in the game that does a relative amount of damage to an enemy like that |
18:44.49 | OluapPlayer | Do enemies actually scale that much? |
18:45.18 | Xho | Indeed they do |
18:45.24 | OluapPlayer | Good lord |
18:45.25 | OluapPlayer | Why even |
18:45.25 | Xho | No level cap = No NPC level cap |
18:45.47 | OluapPlayer | Level 540 Radroach when |
18:45.54 | Xho | noooh |
18:46.03 | Xho | They should just cap it at 100 |
18:46.19 | Xho | The Ancient Behemoth is 95 and there's no enemy in the game a higher level than that |
18:46.38 | OluapPlayer | Suddenly, level 540 Behemoth |
18:46.49 | OluapPlayer | Behemoth Behemoth |
18:46.53 | Wormy_away | In Fallout 3, did you have Mothership Zeta pack |
18:47.05 | Wormy_away | There are some aliens with a nigh impenetrable shield |
18:50.26 | Xho | Don't quite remember anything like that |
18:50.40 | Xho | But then again by the time I played the DLCs everything was weak |

19:31.59 | Hachiman | So I discovered today that the Forsworn from TES: Skyrim are ethnically descendants of Bretons of the Reach and Nordic settlers |
19:32.42 | Hachiman | Yet they do not appear to show any real connection to either races |
19:33.05 | Hachiman | Other than being human and having better magic potential than the Nords |
19:35.04 | OluapPlayer | Forsworn |
19:35.05 | OluapPlayer | who now |
19:35.45 | Hachiman | The tribesmen who live in the Reach and the people who the Briarhearts belong to |
19:35.58 | OluapPlayer | Ah, those |
19:36.09 | OluapPlayer | Why do you care exactly, you don't even play TES hur |
19:36.22 | Hachiman | I like the lore and background behind TES |
19:40.10 | OluapPlayer | http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/spore/images/4/4f/BorealisSectors.png I've remade the Borealis sectors, mainly because I quite disliked the names of the previously unexplored regions |

21:30.51 | Hachiman | Yeah |
21:30.57 | Xho | With the ancient armour and general dickishness |
21:31.12 | Hachiman | Difficult to equate a character to Hachi other than possibly Yunseong or Maxi |
21:31.24 | Xho | Xiba hur |
21:31.35 | Hachiman | Oh wow hur |
21:31.38 | Xho | Except replace "Food" with "tits" |
21:32.08 | Xho | Pelagrios is Jack Sparrow so not a Soulcalibur character |
21:32.24 | Hachiman | Pelagrios is like a neutral-aligned, cowardly Cervantes |

21:33.08 | Hachiman | Speaking of Xiba |
21:33.25 | Hachiman | When I next feel like working on them, I might make the Munki a little more... Deiwos-like |

21:33.38 | Hachiman | Still beastman but more human/elvenlike faces and such |

21:34.10 | OluapPlayer | May as well make them humans |
21:34.15 | Hachiman | Well no |
21:34.22 | Hachiman | Succubi look like elves but they are not elves |
21:34.38 | OluapPlayer | Succubi are female Vurdalak |
21:34.41 | Xho | Savant Contrivance is Voldo |
21:34.44 | OluapPlayer | Vurdalak do not look like Deiwos |
21:34.52 | Hachiman | Vurdalak are male Succubi |
21:34.57 | Hachiman | Succubi look like Deiwos |
21:35.07 | Xho | With Hachi's wooden arm he could be Yoshimitsu-ish |
21:35.20 | Hachiman | I did plan for Hachi to fulfil a Yoshimitsu-ish role in future |
21:35.22 | Xho | Except without the ambiguity of him being a human or not |
21:35.52 | Hachiman | Munki would still have stuff like tails, short stature, fur in places and whatnot, general inhuman athletics and dexterity |
21:36.19 | Xho | An actual Cervantes expy would be scary |
21:36.37 | Hachiman | N'hali comes close to a Cervantes expy for me |
21:36.41 | Xho | True |
21:36.49 | OluapPlayer | Don't know who that is |
21:36.58 | Xho | Violent psycho undead pirate |
21:37.01 | Hachiman | Undead pirate dude from Soul Calibur |
21:37.13 | Xho | Severely op as well |
21:37.18 | Xho | Gameplay wise anyway |
21:37.24 | Xho | Lore-wise he gets weaker and weaker |
21:37.34 | OluapPlayer | dats ironic |
21:37.57 | Xho | Earath is Sigfried-ish due to wielding a greatsword |
21:38.08 | Hachiman | And having a gentleman's attitude |
21:38.16 | Xho | In the later series I guess anyway |
21:38.21 | Hachiman | Well yeah |
21:38.28 | Xho | Sigfried's generally a dick up until V |
21:38.36 | OluapPlayer | Earath has no personality besides being a guy with a greatsword |
21:38.44 | Hachiman | This is bait |
21:38.52 | Xho | MAGGOTS |
21:39.00 | OluapPlayer | I think I know my own character, thanks |
21:39.18 | Xho | We need a Zasalamel expy |
21:39.23 | Xho | Because Zasalamel is <3 |
21:39.33 | Xho | Though a Zasalamel expy would be actual overpowered |
21:39.44 | Hachiman | I think you need to stop putting Earath down and being a pessimist when you have received nothing but help |
21:40.27 | Xho | Ancient reincarnating uy |
21:40.28 | Xho | guy |
21:41.18 | Xho | A scythe-wielding character might be interesting though |
21:41.30 | Xho | Although wielding a scythe as a weapon is a bit impractical |
21:41.36 | Xho | Unless you're the god of death |
21:41.48 | Hachiman | Like Mortium hur |
21:41.57 | Hachiman | And Hachi has wielded a scythe in battle before |
21:42.07 | OluapPlayer | Incidentally, Mortium's scythe |
21:42.11 | Hachiman | Incidentally, Mortium's scythe when he fought Zran Kar |
21:42.13 | Xho | 10/10 |
21:42.17 | OluapPlayer | get dunked on |
21:42.19 | Hachiman | fug |
21:42.29 | Xho | Or even better, a Necrid expy |
21:42.31 | Xho | Calling that |
21:42.44 | Hachiman | Necrid's not a bad guy tho |
21:42.50 | Xho | didn't say he was hur |
21:42.52 | Xho | hur |
21:42.55 | Hachiman | You'd have to make him a neutral/good-aligned character with Void energy to be accurate |
21:42.58 | Xho | gotta stop doing dat |
21:43.19 | Xho | Not necessarily void energy but aesthetically speaking yes |
21:43.30 | Xho | Or primal energy |
21:43.52 | Xho | Or just general cryptomancy |
21:43.59 | Hachiman | >cryptomancy |
21:44.00 | Hachiman | wat dat |
21:44.09 | Xho | generic hocus pocus is the way I see it |
21:44.11 | Hachiman | I cannot imagine being on either the receiving or giving end of both Primal and Void energy would look pretty for anyone |
21:44.16 | OluapPlayer | Arcane magic |
21:44.25 | Xho | Generic hocus pocus c |
21:44.36 | OluapPlayer | So yes, generic hocus pocus |
21:44.44 | Xho | 10/10 best explanation |
21:45.04 | Hachiman | Hocus pocus which includes stuff like healing, teleportation, divination, etc |
21:45.35 | Hachiman | Teleportation is so underrated for combat use in the Fantasyverse |
21:45.57 | OluapPlayer | Teleportation is annoying to fight against |
21:46.21 | OluapPlayer | It also tends to trivialize things, which is why I only keep it to very long distance transportation |
21:46.40 | Hachiman | Then again it could be a case of casters who use it not really being legible for frontline combat anyway or that it requires concentration to use which is not really suitable for combat situations beyond retreat |
21:48.53 | Hachiman | "Shaving says a lot about a man. Like, "I'm not one."" |

22:06.10 | Monet | There's something to be said for how the Sith Empire dealt with the Rakgoul plague. From what I can tell, their methods include: Mass incineration, flushing infectees out of airlocks, and a backup plan of completely flattening planet zero if the infection gets too extreme. |
22:06.56 | Hachiman | You mean, like how many modern governments would plan to deal with outbreaks and infections |

22:08.58 | OluapPlayer | Goddamnit |
22:09.01 | Hachiman | Necrid is basically a spiky Super Mutant who cannot speak properly |
22:09.16 | Hachiman | And uses obscure magic in melee combat |
22:09.44 | OluapPlayer | There's a Super Mutant in New Vegas who fits your first sentence |
22:09.54 | OluapPlayer | He's called Mean Sonofabitch |
22:10.02 | Hachiman | olol |
22:10.31 | Monet | Hachiman: Not sure if any modern government has ever bombarded a city to smithereens for an infection outbreak |
22:10.55 | Hachiman | I remember the Mongols weaponized the Black Plague |
22:11.00 | Monet | Although you are certainly right for animal livestock. |
22:11.28 | Monet | Foot and Mouth, TB and Mad Cow Disease were contained by incinerating entire herds of cattle. |
22:12.32 | Monet | Did they weaponise it or did they simply capitalise on a rather innocuous event. |
22:13.00 | Hachiman | They launched corpses infested with the Black Plague over the walls of sieged settlements and cities |
22:13.04 | Hachiman | They weaponized it hur |
22:13.05 | Monet | (the event being rats in China and India with plague-carrying ticks sneaking aboard Euroepa nships) |
22:13.29 | Monet | Oh wait I get you now. |
22:13.48 | Monet | For a minute there I thougth you were suggesting the Mongols may have been the ones who spread it to Europe. |
22:13.59 | Hachiman | Effectively they were, even if unintentionally |
22:14.05 | OluapPlayer | How did they not contract the Plague themselves in the mean time? |
22:14.34 | Monet | OluapPlayer: Familiarity with it possibly |
22:14.38 | Hachiman | They did |
22:14.47 | Hachiman | They threw Mongol corpses over the city walls |
22:15.11 | Xho | Breaking down shitty warrs: not need |
22:15.50 | Hachiman | I should also note that when the plague-carrying vermin which spread into Europe from China occured, China was reigned by the Yuan Dynasty - effectively, China was under Mongolian rule |
22:16.29 | Monet | Yeah but did they know what caused the illness? |
22:16.59 | Hachiman | Probably not since many people did not know where it came from |
22:17.22 | Hachiman | Like I said, it is likely that the Black Death was brought into Europe unintentionally through contact with Mongolian China |
22:18.09 | Monet | Was going to say was it like in Europe where the blame varied between bad hygene, curses, divine punishment, bad behaviour or blaming soem ethnic minority. |
22:20.26 | Hachiman | It says something about the utter ruthless and brutal nature and methods of the Mongols when they launched the corpses of their own infested dead over the walls of sieged cities in order to kill off their inhabitants |
22:21.29 | Monet | Pretty ruthless yeah |
22:21.57 | Monet | Though I get the feeling that Euroepans weren't above raining disease-ridden animals on their foes. |
22:22.32 | Hachiman | That being said, the Mongols were also rather admirable in that they were tolerant of all religions as they did not expect foreigners to follow their own, allowed foreigners and peasants into their ranks and in turn breaking down feudalism, and held an appreciation for foreign history and culture and tried their best not to destroy or tarnish it |
22:24.13 | Hachiman | When Hulagu Khan committed the Siege of Baghdad and razed it and its architecture, people, and culture to the ground, he was severely berated for it by his peers |
22:24.53 | OluapPlayer | Double standards much |
22:25.25 | Hachiman | How so? |
22:26.15 | OluapPlayer | Who cares if we spread pestilence to exterminate the population, at least we're nice to the priests |
22:26.30 | Xho | wololol |
22:26.35 | Hachiman | hur |
22:26.41 | OluapPlayer | [colour change] |
22:26.53 | Monet | Not sure if its double standards |
22:27.04 | Monet | They're jsut ruthless in war but kind in governance. |
22:27.05 | Hachiman | To be fair, the Mongols only did this to cities that incited insurrection or hostile resistance against them |
22:27.13 | Hachiman | Otherwise they were kind rulers and allies |
22:27.29 | OluapPlayer | An army of angry warriors throwing dead bodies over your walls |
22:27.33 | Xho | I'd ask whether anyone wants to watch me do a broadcast of me making a character in Spore |
22:27.35 | OluapPlayer | Of course they'll be met with hostile resistance |
22:27.43 | OluapPlayer | mite b cool |
22:27.46 | Hachiman | They did that in RESPONSE to hostile resistance |
22:27.49 | Hachiman | yeh sur |
22:27.53 | Xho | not u cus u not loyal hoe |
22:28.02 | OluapPlayer | is dat so den |
22:28.05 | OluapPlayer | well fuk u pal |
22:28.16 | Xho | aw |
22:28.42 | Xho | well invite urself den |
22:29.08 | Monet | Again Europe: Not exactly a shining alternative. |
22:29.12 | OluapPlayer | I'd not broadcast others to watch me make anything in Spore. I tend to zone out and get distracted, so I open the game and only start making the model 30 minutes later |
22:29.58 | *** join/#sporewiki ImpyDroid (~yaaic@95.140.92.130) |
22:30.07 | Monet | One of the common tactics of pre-enlightenment warfare was to surround the city, block off all the roads and starve the citizens int osurrender. |
22:30.25 | OluapPlayer | There's been times I opened the game to make something, starting browsing YouTube then ended up forgetting why I opened the game |
22:30.57 | Monet | And I believe there are numerous cases of the citizens of besieged cities turning to dogs, horses, pigeons and even rats to avoid starvation. |
22:32.15 | Hachiman | From what I can recall, the Khan who led the Siege of Caffa, either Toqtai or Ozbeg, initiated it in response to severe displeasure at how Italian traders bought and sold Turkic slaves |
22:32.43 | OluapPlayer | I'm not saying they're good. I'm saying they're definitely not saints |
22:32.49 | Hachiman | Oh no, not at all |
22:32.56 | OluapPlayer | No such thing as good people in war |
22:33.45 | Monet | Its like how we vote in England: Your choice for a master (if you're that lucky) isn't the guy you like best its the guy you hate the least. |
22:35.44 | OluapPlayer | That's how it works everywhere |
22:36.06 | Hachiman | I find it rather ironic however that despite being a contiguous empire of rural steppe barbarians with a knack for brutality in warfare, they were one of the more progressive historical nations |
22:36.09 | Monet | Before the ideas of democracy the best form of lordship was often seen as making sure the peasants were either too busy, to afraid or too poor to storm your castle. |
22:36.37 | Monet | Most often too helpless though. |
22:37.56 | Hachiman | They assimilated into and cooperated with other nations rather well and I do not think there were such a thing as official second-class citizens within their factions other than slaves who once fought and resisted them |
22:38.50 | Monet | What about Persia and its Satrapys? |
22:39.02 | Hachiman | I do not know too much about Persia |
22:39.36 | Wormy_away | I might be seeing Star Wars this Wednesday |
22:39.44 | Hachiman | Women were also treated with equal respect to men and wives were allowed to divorce their husbands if they so wished |
22:41.49 | Hachiman | So while the Mongols may have been marauders, raiders, and barbarians, they were also, ironically, a rather cultured people who have seen far more success at founding and expanding their reign in regards to territory than any other empire in human history |
22:41.49 | Monet | Persia's satraps were comparable in power to viceroies. |
22:42.52 | Monet | Kings who answered to the king of Persia essentially. |
22:43.42 | Hachiman | I see |

22:45.30 | Wormy_semi_here | Hahi: Kievan Rus ensured it's people were eeducated and had a sort of pro-democracy according to a TED video I watched |
22:45.38 | Wormy_semi_here | *proto |
22:45.45 | Hachiman | I also watch TED hur |
22:46.21 | Xho | Sure no one else wants to watch this broadcast |
22:46.25 | Wormy_semi_here | Animation about the history of Russia https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lfe1wEQzSzM |
22:46.27 | Hachiman | I wanna watch |
22:46.37 | Hachiman | I have honestly come to doubt the idea of Kievan Rus being founded and reigned by Vikings considering that Russian sounds closer to Slavic than Danish |
22:46.54 | Monet | Not going to deny the Mongols were progressive, but a part of me wonders if they di dit because it appeared mroe practical. |
22:47.38 | Hachiman | Well, it was more practical |
22:47.45 | Hachiman | Why do you think they were so successful hur |
22:47.56 | Monet | Rome might be another example. Peopel joke that Rome stole Greece's gods, its possible that the original Italian gods became more Greek. |
22:48.27 | Hachiman | They did not impose their native religion on others since it was so tied to their homeland of Mongolia, the Mongols did not expect foreigners to understand or follow it |
22:48.51 | Wormy_semi_here | The video describes that what we know of as Russia is a mixture of Viking leaders, Slavic people, Mongol invaders, Greek and Byzantine scholars helped build the written language |
22:49.02 | Hachiman | So they just simply allowed foreigners under their reign to practice and follow whatever religion they pleased |
22:50.26 | Monet | Romans were like the Borg, wherever they went they absorbed bits and pieces of foreign culture though assimilation. |
22:50.28 | Hachiman | Also it was more advantageous for the Mongols to promote people in their military and politics, including vassals and foreigners under their reign, based on a system of meritocracy rather than kratocracy or heritage |
22:50.56 | Monet | A lot of Rome's later emperors weren't even italian. |
22:51.46 | Hachiman | I like how Rome proclaimed itself to be a republic despite its imperial tendencies for the past 200 years prior to Caesar's reign and assassination |
22:52.17 | Hachiman | And people feared Caesar turning Rome into an empire despite the fact that previous rulers have done even worse shit than Caesar before his time with Rome |
22:52.47 | Monet | They weren't officially an empire. |
22:53.23 | Hachiman | The Roman Republic was effectively an unofficial empire |
22:53.43 | Monet | They cosnidered temselves a republic because their highest authority was the Senate of Rome. |
22:56.16 | Monet | The Senate killed Julius largely because he was leaving the Senate ineffective. WHich to eb fair on him, they were such before his rise. |
22:56.39 | Wormy_semi_here | Hachiman: If it is true, then Russia has a parallel with English history, that being, they kicked out the Romans/Vikings, and then after not getting along with each other, yearned for their return |
22:56.51 | Hachiman | Yeah |
22:57.10 | Wormy_semi_here | Would be interesting to see this play out i the fiction universe |
22:57.13 | Hachiman | Typical that the Slavs could not handle themselves after kicking the Vikings out of Russia |
22:57.14 | Wormy_semi_here | *in |
22:58.06 | Monet | The senate was made up of politicians that also spent time as generals. And yet when Julius marched on Rome there was no triumphant battle to claim the icty. |
22:58.29 | Hachiman | His opposition either died before he got there or ran away when he showed up |
22:58.31 | Wormy_semi_here | Might be better suited for Koldenwelt |
22:58.50 | Monet | Most of them yeah simply ran away |
22:59.09 | Monet | Pompey I think retreated because he wanted to fight Gaius on his own terms. |
22:59.19 | Hachiman | I imagine some human tribes freed under Ahmalhrich Stormsword's insurrection were reintegrated back into elven society voluntarily |
22:59.46 | Hachiman | And if I recall, it took Caesar getting to Egypt to find out that Pompey had already died |
23:00.39 | Monet | Actually that was what might have been the Senate's death knell - they elected hi mto be protector of Rome, to save the city from a madman marching to it...and he left the city undefended. |
23:01.13 | *** join/#sporewiki AndroImp (~yaaic@95.140.92.130) |
23:01.44 | Monet | Completely scarpered, even if it was to fight Julius his own way, I doubt the people at the tiem of Gaius' arrival thought thought the Senate was very smart for their decision. |
23:02.28 | Hachiman | It is kind of funny that you bring up the point of Roman politicians not even being Italian when something similar happened with China |
23:03.34 | Hachiman | The Yuan Dynasty was founded by Kublai Khan, who operated as the Emperor of China under the name "Shizu" and also held the title of Great Khan of the Mongol Empire |
23:06.29 | Monet | I think Pompey was perhaps a strong representation of the dual lives politicians led - he was a legendary general prior to Gaius Julius' uprising, but at his heigth he was also one of Rome's wealthiest ever men. |
23:06.39 | Monet | height* |
23:07.19 | Hachiman | Julius was an even richer man |
23:09.15 | Monet | According to plutarch, Pompey's successed contributed some 35 million drachmae to proceeds to ROme's treasury. |
23:09.43 | AndroImp | Hachiman: Strangely enough, China was actually ruled by non-Han people for like most of its history |
23:09.50 | AndroImp | It was their thing, so to speak |
23:10.02 | Hachiman | Fucking kek |
23:10.27 | AndroImp | You see, the Chinese were highly advanced but sucked when it came to actual fightimg |
23:10.49 | AndroImp | So their history was a cycle of "get conquered -> turn conquerors into us" |
23:10.54 | Monet | To put that into perspective, at the heigth of his career, Pompey was providing almost *half* of Rome's wealth. |
23:11.17 | AndroImp | Basically like a civilisation-sized version of Frostmourne |
23:11.47 | Hachiman | Are there even pureblood Chinese anymore |
23:11.52 | Monet | Without his funds, state proceeds were 50 million drachmae, with it, proceeds were as much as 85 million. |
23:12.00 | AndroImp | As much as there are pureblood anyone |
23:12.13 | Monet | Pompey was, and pardom y French, Rich as all fuck. |
23:12.22 | AndroImp | But considering their population, there probably are |
23:12.45 | AndroImp | The last emperors were Manchu for example, then there were Jurchens, Kidans etc |
23:13.14 | AndroImp | Russia is also famous for this although not to the same degree |
23:13.17 | Hachiman | Were Han the original Chinese? |
23:13.36 | AndroImp | I think so, they are like the main Chinese |
23:14.00 | AndroImp | I think there is some continuity in language and blood from the beginning of Chinese history |
23:15.11 | AndroImp | Anyway our country was founded by a fucking Viking, our greatest empress was fucking Prussian and then we had in succession a dynasty of Germans, a Jew, a Georgian and a Ukrainian |
23:15.37 | Hachiman | Typical Slavs |
23:15.42 | Hachiman | Cannot do anything right |
23:16.42 | AndroImp | Not sure if I should be offended or if it was a suggestion to seize power |
23:16.48 | AndroImp | That was literally the reason for inviting a foreign king cited in ancient Russian chronicles |
23:17.12 | Hachiman | Do you actually have Russian blood in you or are you "pureblood" North Korean |
23:17.37 | AndroImp | I am not pureblood North Korean that is for sure |
23:18.05 | AndroImp | North Korean just happens to be the dominant ancestry, at the very least I have some South Korean ancestors |
23:18.10 | AndroImp | From Busan |
23:18.13 | Hachiman | Well of course |
23:18.30 | Hachiman | North and South Koreans are practically the same people |
23:18.31 | OluapPlayer | you're only born in one location eeeee |
23:18.55 | AndroImp | I also apparently had an ancestor that had light eyes but where did he get THESE from is a big question |
23:18.57 | Wormy_semi_here | I have some Russian ancestry |
23:19.18 | Hachiman | OluapPlayer: We are talking about ethnic heritage not national birthplace, for example your heritage stems back to Brasilian monkeys |
23:19.23 | AndroImp | Ainu, Russian, English, who knows |
23:19.38 | OluapPlayer | Yours stem back from hobos but you don't see me complaining |
23:19.48 | OluapPlayer | You got your ancestors's hair |
23:20.05 | AndroImp | Would be funny if that ancestor of mine was actually the result of some drunken British or American sailor coming into Korea |
23:20.10 | AndroImp | *to Korea |
23:20.18 | Hachiman | Realistically I possibly of distant Indian heritage |

23:24.28 | AndroImp | Actually no it is that Sith world from SW: TOR |
23:24.55 | Hachiman | Born in Wales yes but not actually Welsh on the basis of her heritage and ethnicity, or her nationality as she is deemed a British citizen |
23:24.57 | AndroImp | Especially fitting considering that Putin is from here |
23:25.12 | OluapPlayer | You must have a different definition of nationality then |
23:25.12 | Monet | I may have some Dutch blood but there may be some American in me too. |
23:25.19 | Wormy_semi_here | It's true that, Wales is a country but the UK is also a country so you can be born in two (if that is the point being made), just not in any official sense since you are a British citizen with a UK passport |
23:25.30 | OluapPlayer | Over here, your nationality = your place of birth |
23:25.50 | Hachiman | Over here, nationality = where you hold permanent residence |
23:25.50 | Monet | We're talking about ethinicity really. |
23:25.56 | Hachiman | You can change your nationality |
23:26.09 | Monet | Hachi's right. |
23:26.14 | Hachiman | Your ethnicity however, you cannot |
23:26.15 | OluapPlayer | You can't change nationality over here |

23:26.27 | OluapPlayer | You can get double-nationality, but you can't scrap one in favour of another |
23:26.41 | AndroImp | Russian definition of nationality kind of fits your definition of ethnicity |
23:26.56 | AndroImp | What you call nationality we call citizenship |
23:27.10 | Hachiman | Citizenship and nationality is interchangeable for me |
23:27.15 | Wormy_semi_here | "Service grants citizenship" Starship Troopers |
23:27.24 | Hachiman | Or at least, kinda interchangeable |

23:27.42 | Charles_Bot | I'm wondering if I should start a Sporewiki Twitter service. In other words, a Twitter-like message board where our fictions can interact in a fun and fast-paced way. I miss the UDB of old, where responses came in from everywhere on every subject. |
