00:17.32 | The_Randomness | Responding to when you asked about civ |

00:51.32 | drom | Also, it is a 1980x1050 image, so make sure you have a biggie screen |
00:51.33 | Spu | dat ambient occlusion tho |
00:51.42 | Spu | 4k m8 |
00:51.45 | drom | Which is no issue for you Spu, since you brag a 4k |
00:52.08 | Spu | It does look like a really hi-tech super soaker however |
00:52.34 | drom | Your 4k or the ship? |
00:52.36 | Spu | But then again I don't have the chops to make something like that so I r8 it 8/8 |
00:52.40 | Spu | The ship |
00:52.58 | Monet | I have a 1920x1080 screen |
00:53.22 | Monet | Skinny but I like the patterns |
00:53.29 | drom | Spu: After some googling, I see what you mean hur |
00:54.08 | drom | first when I did the outline, I was thinking, what if I made them fishes? |
00:57.10 | Monet | Could be fish, yeah. |
00:57.27 | Monet | Agai nI guess it depends on Nomatari culture |
00:59.19 | drom | Nomatarians like compact and claustrophobic spaces. |
01:00.41 | drom | And I had the idea to take inspiration from flunders, the ships are vertical, but the rooms are also vertical with horizontial gravity |
01:05.28 | drom | Monet: By that I mean, the profile is actually the top/bottom of the interior |
01:08.18 | Monet | So the floors are vertical? |
01:08.24 | drom | Yep |
01:08.39 | Monet | Cool |
01:09.03 | drom | But that's something I've not confirmed yet. |

01:11.47 | Wormy_ | Isles of Scilly, off of Cornwall |
01:12.01 | Monet | Palm trees on Scilly? |
01:12.26 | Wormy_ | It is a Victorian garden, admittedly, but they survive there |

01:15.28 | Wormy_ | I imagine it is inhabited by rich people and empty celebrity houses |
01:15.38 | Wormy_ | It does have a lot of tourism actually |
01:15.38 | Monet | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Aldra rite, page done |
01:16.22 | Wormy_ | They are called the Tresco Abbey Gardens, and have 17 acres of palm trees and tropical plants protected by mild winters |

01:34.22 | drom | The highlighted comment in yellow |
01:43.54 | Wormy_ | interesting. South Korean activists also send balloons over NK with porn, sweets and propaganda against the state. One defected soldier admitted they take the first two, and the generals take the porn. But none of the soldiers like the propaganda. |

02:16.23 | Wormy_ | indeed |
02:16.26 | DrodoEmpire | Capitalism's not only the best system we've come up with its a very broad thing. Capitalism's only bad when monopolies form, which is when the government has to step in |

15:31.08 | Monet | The 80s is peculiar in some ways. |
15:31.29 | Monet | You have the COld War but you also have the rise of cop action/drama like Miami Vice. |
15:33.14 | Monet | They were a lot more carefree, I'll say that. |
15:39.10 | Monet | Maybe it was the dual combination of the swelling of disposable income and the passing of World War II from the memories of the coming-of-age generation. |
15:42.51 | Wormy_ | I wish I was born a few years earlier to experience the 80s |

15:47.11 | Wormy_ | Everyone tells me the 90s were more fun |
15:47.18 | Wormy_ | yeah |
15:47.39 | Monet | As much as I adore the Renaissance, for something like 95% of the European population nothing that special really happened. |
15:49.38 | Wormy_ | Still I don't really feel like glorifying the 2000s, yeah we had internet, consoles and flip-phones to distinguish our times. People seem to lack an optimism for the future because the failings of social media, the recession, and terrorism, these are literally things that stick out |
15:50.18 | Wormy_ | 2010s shortly felt like an era of revolution, but it lead nowhere |
15:51.08 | Wormy_ | And all people talk about is how great the 20th century felt |
15:51.31 | Wormy_ | even nostalgia for hardships of the time |
15:51.49 | Monet | 9/11 might have been the turning point. |
15:52.01 | Wormy_ | I think so |
15:53.51 | Monet | The 2010s I tihnk might be remembered as the new age of startup and the rise of the Hipster |
15:55.36 | Monet | Maybe the general tone that the geek is cool. |
15:55.42 | Wormy_ | Yeah, hipster beards everywhere |
15:55.58 | Monet | Nerd, sorry, but maybe geek |
15:56.14 | Monet | The catalyst for the 2010s I'd say is hmm...Kickstarter? |
15:56.32 | Wormy_ | That is a good thing of our times, the ability of people with a camera to become celebrities |
15:56.34 | Monet | Silicon Valley is becoming filled with multi-million companies that didn't exist half a decade ago. |
15:57.52 | Monet | Uber, Netflix, AirBnb, |
15:58.12 | Wormy_ | We are seeing the rise of people like Elon Musk and Donald Trump (not that they are alike in personality) having political power |
15:58.38 | Hachiman | >hipster beards |
15:58.47 | Hachiman | You of all people should not be complaining about beards |
15:59.18 | Monet | *neck*beards |
15:59.28 | Hachiman | Ah right |
15:59.46 | Wormy_ | I'm not complaining about beards, I have had a thick one since I was 18, and sideburns when I was younger |
15:59.55 | Hachiman | I am still offended over that time you said I was starting to get a neckbeard by the way hur |
16:00.45 | Wormy_ | But it is now cool to have beards again. But the beard still has to look good, not some scraggly neckbeard |
16:00.56 | Wormy_ | I say this but i have not trimmed it down in 2 weeks |
16:03.11 | Wormy_ | I gave up on the sideburns because people were shouted "Wiggo" at me |
16:03.50 | Hachiman | Wiggo? |
16:03.51 | Wormy_ | Because of Wiggins's victory in le Tour de France. I like Wiggins but that is still embarrassing. |

16:05.07 | Hachiman | Ah right |
16:05.26 | Hachiman | I occasionally get called out for looking like Weird Al Yankovic because of my long hair |
16:06.21 | Wormy_ | I've had chavs call me "Dad" in places like Nottingham. Once a crowd on bikes circles around me saying "Dad", it was a bit of a scary situation because you can't ignore them and you can't not ignore them |
16:06.26 | Wormy_ | fucking sharks |
16:06.57 | Monet | Can't say i've really been insulted for my looks. |
16:07.31 | Monet | May have gotten some peculiar looks from people when I tested out wearing a trilby a few weeks ago. |

16:13.59 | Monet | Besides it can't be a hipster trilby because it's got a branded button. |
16:14.17 | Hachiman | It's still a trilby nonetheless |
16:14.33 | Wormy_ | I'd leet the hair goes in front of my eyes, tried to cut that off, and went behind the hair line. It was the umbest thing I've done |
16:15.22 | Monet | The 2000s don't feel like a hat era unless it's a beanie or a baseball cap. |
16:16.02 | Wormy_ | yeah |
16:16.43 | Monet | Burberry used to be a top-end name until you could buy knock-off burberry caps in Camden market. |
16:18.12 | Monet | I think the Trilby suffered the same effect - being appropriated people who didn't know how to pull off how to wear it. |
16:18.53 | Monet | Or didn't care and thought simply wearing it was a status symbol or something. |
16:22.33 | Hachiman | The only people I feel who can pull of a good look with a fedora / trilby are older people |
16:22.45 | Hachiman | Not beardy fat youths |
16:23.39 | Monet | ts either my age or some other method that I think (in real life at least) I can pass myself off as someone older than I am. |
16:24.23 | Wormy_ | <PROTECTED> |
16:25.37 | Wormy_ | They were well designed to keep the head cool |
16:26.02 | Monet | I'm 23 and I'm rarely asked for ID in the pub. |
16:26.40 | Hachiman | I am 19 and I never get asked for ID anymore hur |
16:26.59 | Wormy_ | Hardly ever been ID'd, in fact at Download festival, a group of 30 year old men got ID's and I didn't because of my beard |
16:27.02 | Hachiman | Well, not never, with new places I still get asked but I am considered a regular to certain places now |
16:27.07 | Wormy_ | I call beards "wearable ID" |
16:27.23 | Monet | Beards help |
16:27.35 | Wormy_ | The only places I get asked are in rougher city centre pubs |
16:28.51 | Wormy_ | <PROTECTED> |
16:29.54 | Wormy_ | Never been asked in my town, don't bother bringing ID other than my beard |
16:30.33 | Monet | Fashion-wise I tend to stay away from jeans, funny t-shirts or any shirts with bold patterns. |
16:30.53 | Monet | Also no tracksuits whatsoever |
16:32.02 | Monet | Lately I've started wearing more plain shirts. |
16:32.52 | Hachiman | Fashion-wise I stray towards combats or jeans, black shirts with either generic grim stuff on the front or with band merchandise, boots, and leather jackets |
16:33.45 | Hachiman | I cannot get enough boots, combats, or jackets hur |
16:35.09 | Monet | QUite a contrast. |
16:35.26 | Monet | My outfits are generally lacking in any imagery. |
16:41.21 | dino82_ | if I am late to reply, wathcing a movie |
16:49.07 | Monet | Okay |

17:09.19 | Imperios | I thought your delinquents wear Burberry |
17:11.31 | Monet | Burberry and tracksuits |
17:12.14 | Monet | Though it has to be knock-of Burberry - Burberry's flagship store is situated on Oxford Street. |
17:13.18 | Hachiman | Tracksuits are worn by chavs in the UK |
17:13.30 | Hachiman | Chavs and gopniks have close aesthetic ties hur |
17:14.08 | Imperios | Monet: Our gopniks usually wear knock-offs too |
17:14.20 | Imperios | Adidas-based ones usually, which is why we call them "abibases" |

17:16.46 | Monet | http://s95.photobucket.com/user/lilmizz2004/media/chav.jpg.html this is the knockoff |

17:37.21 | Wormy_away | Imperios: I saw some chavs squatting last year, they might be importing that from the gopniks |

18:04.07 | Wormy_away | wow so true |
18:10.10 | Hachiman | So I just learned that the main character of the film Flushed Away by DreamWorks Animation and Aardman Animations, a mouse called Roddy, was voiced by none other than Hugh Jackman - the Wolverine |
18:11.31 | Wormy_away | wow |
18:11.50 | Monet | Hugh seems good with accents |
18:12.30 | Monet | He can do many more voices than just gruff Logan |
18:13.46 | *** join/#sporewiki Charles_Bot (uid94017@gateway/web/irccloud.com/x-jsdqyxydjyrznzit) |
18:15.59 | Hachiman | It surprises me that he was involved in a flick tailored for younger audiences and could do a convincing British accent |
18:16.16 | Hachiman | Especially after seeing his performance in Les Miserables |
18:17.31 | Monet | I liked his performance. |
18:17.59 | Monet | It was nice to see him in a role where he wasn't gruff. |
18:18.28 | OluapPlayer | I've made a list of all the recognized characters I have on the fictionverse |
18:18.28 | OluapPlayer | I came to a total of 168 |
18:19.03 | Monet | I thought Russel Crowe wasa bit tone-deaf at times. |
18:19.16 | Hachiman | 168 is a rather insane number |
18:19.40 | Hachiman | I think that you can claim you have the most number of Fictionverse characters |
18:19.47 | Monet | Hachiman: Was it his general performance or are musical films not your thing? |
18:19.50 | Imperios | Hachiman: Wolverat |
18:20.05 | Hachiman | Except maybe Cyrannian, because he also has a ton |
18:20.22 | OluapPlayer | Actually I missed the two Seagon Empire characters |
18:20.25 | OluapPlayer | 170 characters |
18:20.30 | Hachiman | dats a perfect number |
18:20.44 | Hachiman | Monet: Both really, though I felt that Jackman's performance was bad even for a musical |
18:21.31 | Hachiman | Fictionverse-wise I probably have less than 100 characters |
18:23.09 | Monet | Looking at Jackman's credits. |
18:23.14 | Monet | Les Mis isn't the first time he's sung |
18:24.50 | OluapPlayer | Out of 170, 40 are dead |
18:24.57 | OluapPlayer | Twin perfect yodas |
18:25.16 | Monet | I definitely remember Russel Crowe hitting some bum notes. |
18:25.50 | Hachiman | Twin perfect yodas |
18:25.51 | Hachiman | wat |
18:26.08 | OluapPlayer | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6V3islv_LOA |
18:26.25 | Hachiman | Oh right I'd forgotten hur |
18:27.22 | OluapPlayer | But yes, Cyrannian probably has me beat by his sheer amount of captains and senators |
18:28.07 | Hachiman | Cyrannian has so many characters it kinda feels unnecessary at times hur |
18:28.23 | Hachiman | He does not even kill them off all that often |

18:28.45 | The_Randomness | Hello |
18:28.51 | Wormy_away | hi |
18:29.01 | OluapPlayer | Cyrannian says he always regrets killing off any of his chars |
18:29.07 | OluapPlayer | It's one of the reasons Tyranus is back |
18:30.05 | Hachiman | Except Gianne |
18:30.36 | OluapPlayer | He regrets killing her too |
18:30.49 | OluapPlayer | But he has no plans of bringing her back, since he's already giving Apollo a new gf |
18:30.57 | Hachiman | bird tits |
18:31.04 | OluapPlayer | Wrong actually |
18:31.34 | Monet | He's being awfully affectionate for not being romantically interested. |
18:31.38 | Hachiman | Well that's surprising |
18:31.41 | OluapPlayer | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Tertius_Bellum/An_Unexpected_Adventure |
18:32.03 | Hachiman | His new gf is Gorf |
18:32.14 | OluapPlayer | Gorf is everyone's gf |
18:33.14 | Hachiman | So Apollo is now dating a doctor |
18:33.32 | Monet | I sometimes wonder if the Imperium could perform as well as it did if Uriel ever died. |
18:33.45 | Charles_Bot | *gasp! The scandal!* |
18:33.54 | Monet | His life is becoming increasingly dangerous. |
18:34.05 | OluapPlayer | Not officially |
18:34.08 | OluapPlayer | But Gorf ships them |
18:34.14 | Charles_Bot | Well, who's the crown prince? |
18:34.36 | Hachiman | I just had a thought that when Err introduces himself and says his name to people who have no knowledge of Ermitant culture, they just think he is having some sorta stroke |
18:35.32 | OluapPlayer | Errr - what kind of name is "tyraz", that's our word for toilet paper |
18:35.56 | Hachiman | Tyraz - funi cus im a piece of shit |
18:36.42 | Monet | Charles_Bot: Royal tradition has the paragon consort rule in the paragon's sudden death unless they have picked a successor |
18:36.43 | Technobliterator | OluapPlayer, this is like me, except I fear the regret that will come so much that I just don't kill them off in the first place :P |
18:37.18 | Hachiman | "Gorf does not actually know where Gorf goes. He simply goes at random. Have been through truly horrid places." |
18:37.21 | OluapPlayer | ya all bad at wrritin |
18:37.27 | Hachiman | Those implications are truly horrifying |
18:37.44 | Monet | Charles_Bot: So if we kill off Uriel tomorrow, Alensia will be Paragon. Part of their life involves choosing who out of their children will ascened the throne when they pass away. |
18:38.18 | Monet | Right now I think the current likely successors are either Paronus or Alessa. |
18:38.29 | Hachiman | Oh wow Apollo's cannibal joke |
18:38.47 | Hachiman | That was a mindfuck even for me |
18:39.50 | Charles_Bot | He better pick one given what's coming |
18:39.56 | Charles_Bot | Just in case |
18:40.01 | OluapPlayer | This is the guy who was president of the galaxy folks |
18:41.15 | Technobliterator | well |
18:41.24 | Technobliterator | the Kralgon Emperor was once emperor of his entire galaxy |
18:41.29 | Monet | Charles_Bot: Yeah. Though chances are it will be Alessa. |
18:41.43 | Hachiman | Yeah but Apollo is significantly more sophisticated than the KE |
18:41.57 | Technobliterator | that was my point |
18:41.57 | Technobliterator | ;D |
18:42.07 | OluapPlayer | your point is moot |
18:42.15 | Technobliterator | ya moms is |
18:43.51 | OluapPlayer | Considering Gorf's personality it's a wonder Apollo has not died in a terrible accident by now |
18:43.57 | OluapPlayer | Gorf's mind works on non-sequiturs |
18:44.25 | Monet | Logically he should be. |
18:45.06 | OluapPlayer | "Gorf is busy imagining hat fighting Tigarlu." is still my favorite line of that story |
18:45.15 | Monet | At least characters like KE have a healthy degree of military experience. |
18:45.36 | Hachiman | I wish we could see more of the Apollo who dual-wielded plasma pistols |
18:46.25 | Wormy_away | http://www.pcgamer.com/fallout-4-player-has-head-snatched-away-by-deathclaw-but-lives-on/?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=pcgfb |
18:46.32 | OluapPlayer | I would like a chance to see Gorf wounded |
18:46.37 | OluapPlayer | I imagine he bleeds golden |
18:46.42 | OluapPlayer | liquid |
18:47.13 | Monet | Hachiman: Apollo's a pacifist who doeesn't like guns though isn't he? |
18:48.00 | Hachiman | I think I remember in Tantummodo Mortem that he took part in fighting the Dominion incursions |
18:48.17 | OluapPlayer | He did, but only for a short amount of time |
18:48.39 | OluapPlayer | Apollo only fights in self-defense |
18:49.36 | Monet | Yeah. That time was probably the only time we've seen him outside of the Trucinex war wielding a gun. |
18:50.47 | Hachiman | https://scontent-lhr3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpf1/v/t1.0-9/1528_1107791312588934_474371691354229943_n.png?oh=97f77b01cc258243b59c950d550dd287&oe=570F5576 |
18:51.13 | Monet | Ouchlol |
18:52.50 | Monet | I can't imagine an Imperium without Uriel would feel the same. Even if the paragon is of his blood |
18:54.13 | Hachiman | To be fair, it is kind of a similar effect of not many people believing the UK will be the same without Elizabeth II |
18:54.40 | Hachiman | Even though her successor will be a member of her lineage |
18:54.51 | Monet | Agreed. |
18:54.54 | Technobliterator | like Elizabeth II did anything at all |
18:55.05 | Technobliterator | like the royal family are relevant to anything |
18:55.08 | Monet | She's done more than you can imagine. |
18:55.19 | Hachiman | Oh I am not giving her credit; I am anti-monarchy |
18:55.33 | Technobliterator | Oh, I'm sure she has by sitting around on her arse and then occasionally making speeches |
18:56.05 | Technobliterator | while some of us work 40 hours a week living off the minimum wage |
18:56.16 | Monet | So you're both denying her as the country's most prolific diplomat. |
18:56.29 | Technobliterator | Yup! |
18:56.55 | Technobliterator | The PM is the one going out on meetings with Obama |
18:57.05 | Technobliterator | and what did the Queen do to earn any of her power anyway? |
18:57.20 | OluapPlayer | She descended from space in her reptilian vessel |
18:57.25 | Hachiman | She inherited it |
18:57.34 | Hachiman | Which is wrong hur |
18:57.37 | Technobliterator | ^ |
18:58.04 | Hachiman | At least the men in the Royal Family have to go through mandatory military service even if they do not actually participate on the frontline |
18:58.05 | Monet | To be fair did George W. Bush start from the bottom? |
18:58.07 | Wormy_away | I don't have any strong feelings for or against the monarchy. CGP Grey however explained our taxes would be higher without the Monarchy, and then there is all the tourism it brings. |
18:58.23 | Monet | Did David Cameron start with nothing? |
18:58.28 | Hachiman | Not really |
18:58.30 | Technobliterator | PFT |
18:58.36 | Technobliterator | Cameron's probably worse |
18:58.39 | Hachiman | He went to a private school for one |
18:58.45 | OluapPlayer | Considering his affairs with the pig, yes |
18:58.53 | Technobliterator | while the Queen sits around and does nothing, Cameron actively fucks half the country in the ass, including the pigs in it |
18:59.02 | OluapPlayer | kek |
18:59.08 | Hachiman | He fucks the pigs in the mouth actually hur |
18:59.11 | Technobliterator | Wormy_away, this is true |
18:59.13 | Wormy_away | George W. Bush is a warmongerer in my eyes |
18:59.24 | Technobliterator | they're actually more economically valuable |
18:59.35 | Technobliterator | I don't like it, but I passively accept their existence because of this |
18:59.41 | Hachiman | I dislike hearing that Obama is a warmonger when he is attempting to clear up the mess that Bush caused |
19:00.09 | Wormy_away | I don't particularly like the Monarchy, that being said |
19:00.20 | Technobliterator | I hate the concept of a monarchy :p |
19:00.53 | Wormy_away | I mean the people themselves |
19:00.53 | Hachiman | Genghis Khan had it right when he promoted people, including his own sons, based on merit rather than heritage |
19:00.53 | OluapPlayer | i haet u |
19:00.55 | OluapPlayer | yet ur still here |
19:01.16 | Technobliterator | i hate ya dad |
19:01.27 | OluapPlayer | Speaking of nonsensical leaders |
19:01.31 | Monet | I think there's this assumption the Queen does nothing becuse we don't hear what she does. |
19:01.35 | OluapPlayer | Technobliterator Hachiman: Can we go on with that Loron plot? |
19:01.45 | Technobliterator | I have to leave in about half an hour :/ |
19:01.50 | OluapPlayer | fug |
19:01.53 | Hachiman | I'm gonna be a bit occupied |
19:01.56 | Technobliterator | But for the whole week, aside from Friday, I'm completely free |
19:02.15 | Technobliterator | Well, I say "completely", but I have to revise for exams - I'm free other than that though |
19:02.35 | OluapPlayer | Whole day without fiction work makes the Oluap upset and mad |
19:03.02 | Monet | We don't hear every phone conversation, of every trip or about every dignitary that goes in and out of the doors of Buckingham Palace. |
19:03.05 | Technobliterator | write a Loron History of something |
19:03.06 | Technobliterator | :o |
19:03.14 | OluapPlayer | Hm |
19:03.17 | OluapPlayer | Guess I could do that |
19:03.46 | Wormy_away | Hachi: Of course I'm still very naive of American politics being not American, but Obama seems like a mostly reasonable person. However I think he has had little power to change anything, and tip toes around issues |
19:04.09 | Monet | Sorry if I'm ranting but honestly people think the same of artists. |
19:04.26 | Monet | No one ever talks about Crunch in the developer industry. |
19:04.50 | Hachiman | The role of the Queen can be fulfilled by anybody though |
19:05.09 | Wormy_away | I watched a weird (but real) footage of a naked man trying to escape Buckingham Palace out of a window, but he fell off the roof and nobody knew what became of him. |
19:05.18 | Hachiman | You do not have to be the Queen to be a foreign dignitary; there are people who are not the Queen who are trained for this kind of thing |
19:05.38 | Hachiman | Effectively making the Queen redundant |
19:05.48 | Monet | She's trained as well |
19:05.54 | OluapPlayer | Technobliterator: I got an idea for a Loron story |
19:06.08 | Monet | One of the reasons she's a dignitary is because people kno who she is. |
19:06.25 | Technobliterator | Oh? |
19:06.35 | OluapPlayer | The Loron's take on the origin of Da Chikz |
19:06.59 | Monet | Although thanks to phones and the internet she doesn't ahve to travel as much. |
19:07.14 | Technobliterator | hahaha |
19:07.16 | Technobliterator | Sounds good |
19:07.19 | Wormy_away | There are Brits who are much more powerful and rich than the Royals, such as Abu Khan, 49th Imam of Ishamaili Shia Islam. |
19:07.28 | Wormy_away | Sorry, Aga Khan IV https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aga_Khan_IV |
19:07.43 | Wormy_away | and probably a great deal more influential |
19:07.44 | OluapPlayer | Also should we keep using the Jokerman font for the page? I think a few people have expressed difficulty reading it |
19:07.51 | OluapPlayer | And considering everything, sometimes it really is hard to read |
19:08.00 | Technobliterator | I personally don't mind either way, feel free to remove it |
19:08.09 | Technobliterator | replace with font-style:italic? |
19:08.20 | Wormy_away | I don't think fancy fonts work well on computer screens |
19:08.20 | OluapPlayer | That should work |
19:09.34 | Monet | I think there is some misconception that everyone who has an executive-or-above job uses it as an excuse to be liesurely and fuck around. |
19:11.26 | Technobliterator | Not really. No one minds Bill Gates, because of how much he's done for charity. Everyone minds when owners of big businesses pay their own workers a low minimum wage and complain that they can't afford to raise wages. |
19:11.56 | Monet | SO wait. |
19:12.51 | Monet | Actually. To be fair, the wage argument is a culmulative one. |
19:13.41 | Hachiman | I do not see why taxpayers' money has to go towards the upkeep of the Royal Family |
19:13.44 | Technobliterator | It's undeniable that there are people working 40+ hours weekly and barely able to provide for themselves, while people who do relatively little with their time own disgusting amounts of wealth |
19:14.01 | Wormy_away | CEOs and so on tend to develop a lot more respect if they made their own money, like Richard Branson |
19:14.21 | Technobliterator | or if they actually do something worthwhile with it, like again, Bill Gates |
19:14.30 | Monet | Actually Techo you'd be surprised how much of your life management can consume. |
19:15.42 | Technobliterator | I don't think I would, do you really think most of these business owners actually manage their own companies instead of just pay other people to do it for them? ._. |
19:15.49 | Monet | https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/736x/2c/e2/3c/2ce23c185c5faecc4bf3c9b5370b53f0.jpg this might sum up oen aspect |
19:16.23 | Technobliterator | yeah, assistant |
19:16.32 | Technobliterator | not CEO |
19:16.58 | Monet | Okay here's another http://viennachoralsociety.org/wp-content/uploads/3b2.jpg |
19:17.35 | Monet | http://ct.fra.bz/ol/fz/sw/i38/2/11/13/frabz-CEO-What-my-friends-think-I-do-What-my-mom-thinks-I-do-What-soci-c7f318.jpg no wait HERE we go |
19:18.25 | Hachiman | I doubt CEOs actually do any of that stuff |
19:18.32 | Hachiman | They can just pay assistants to do it |
19:18.35 | Technobliterator | Again, do you think these people do the work themselves as opposed to just hiring other people to do it for them? |
19:18.48 | Monet | It'd be cheaper to do the work themselves. |
19:19.03 | Hachiman | That would mean doing work themselves |
19:19.06 | Technobliterator | Yeah, but they've also got so much cash that they can afford to spend it |
19:19.19 | Monet | That and they'd be hounded by assistants asking for verification on this or that. |
19:19.25 | Technobliterator | There's a reason Bruce Wayne is never portrayed as doing anything for Wayne Enterprises in the Batman films |
19:19.55 | Monet | Bruce Wayne isn't a real CEO. |
19:21.44 | Technobliterator | How many "real CEOs" do you think there are in the world? |
19:21.57 | Technobliterator | Because I'm fairly sure what they do isn't exactly slave labour |
19:22.14 | Monet | Tens of thousands at least |
19:22.46 | Monet | "The responsibilities of an organization's CEO are set by the organization's board of directors or other authority, depending on the organization's legal structure. They can be far-reaching or quite limited and are typically enshrined in a formal delegation of authority. |
19:22.46 | Monet | Typically, the CEO/MD has responsibilities as a director, decision maker, leader, manager and executor. The communicator role can involve the press and the rest of the outside world, as well as the organization's management and employees; the decision-making role involves high-level decisions about policy and strategy." |
19:23.56 | Monet | They hire assistants to do each job, sure, but the CEO makes sure all those assistants are coordinated. |
19:26.15 | Monet | Soory for posting a Wikipedia article but "I'll have my assistant do that" is only half the job. |
19:26.50 | Wormy_away | Lets all take a step back, and think. What do you actually know about CEOs, what they do, how they work, have you had any kind of experience that is even close? If you haven't, then consider your perception is grounded in media representations, culture, and guesswork. |
19:26.52 | Monet | THe CEO is the brain, the asssistants are his hands. |

19:28.00 | Technobliterator | :o |
19:28.19 | Technobliterator | lemme read |
19:28.27 | Monet | Wormy_away: At our level, project management is a low-level example of what a CEO's job is like without the orders from a board of directors |
19:28.49 | Wormy_away | We all have misconceptions about things outside our ken. What it is to be rich, what it is to be poor, what it is to be a lecturer, to be a journalist or whatever you imagine. |
19:28.57 | Monet | I had experience with corporate management in EVE and guidl management in WoW |
19:29.44 | Wormy_away | We've all been in group and pitch projects I assume, we have been in similar courses and HE |
19:30.03 | Wormy_away | But even that is a tiny taster |
19:30.13 | Technobliterator | "DUNT LISSEN TO DEM, ITS JUS FEMINAZI PROPAGANDA. LIES AND SLANDA I SAY." |
19:30.15 | Technobliterator | hahahahaha |
19:31.48 | Technobliterator | "Woh'myn" |
19:31.49 | Technobliterator | nice |
19:32.27 | Technobliterator | I actually wonder if it's best to leave any typos on that page as they are and say they're realistic for a Loron website |
19:32.56 | Monet | Wormy_away: I had a group project last term |
19:32.59 | Wormy_away | I wouldn't mix up out-of-universe, and in-universe things like that, personally. |
19:33.14 | OluapPlayer | I don't like typos hur |
19:33.38 | Wormy_away | But then it depends how canon your page is |
19:34.00 | Wormy_away | Monet: I had a terrible one |
19:34.14 | Wormy_away | We were making a game for a film director |
19:34.33 | Technobliterator | OluapPlayer, this is glorious |
19:34.50 | Technobliterator | Wormy_away, technically the Loron History page is canon |
19:35.06 | OluapPlayer | yey |
19:35.11 | Technobliterator | it's kind of a weird one in between a canon Loron encyclopedia and a non-canon joke page |
19:35.25 | Wormy_away | Class split into 3 teams, I ended up in one that worked terribly. We lost the game twice because one in our group didn't backup the project. And then during the presentation another student started with "This is a terrible game" with our half finished product |
19:35.46 | OluapPlayer | Lorons have big round heads, Norol are big round spiders |
19:35.52 | OluapPlayer | Therefore Norols are just walking Loron heads |
19:36.37 | Monet | Wormy_away: I don't know if your course did it but on mine there was an element during development of 'other people outside the class are going t osee it' |
19:36.58 | OluapPlayer | Hachiman: chek loron mysoginy |
19:37.34 | Wormy_away | In the first year, yes. We had a pitch project with a game designer, and the games were pitched to an audience of local gamers, school children and Cryotek |
19:37.52 | Wormy_away | First in class visit and then in a cinema |
19:38.37 | Wormy_away | Second year, our film director literally visited us twice, first to introduce himself, and then at the final pitch |
19:38.48 | Wormy_away | But the course I was on, was in absolute shambles |
19:39.02 | Monet | Cryotek? Do you mean Crytek? |
19:39.10 | Wormy_away | Yeah |
19:39.15 | Wormy_away | Based in Nottingham |
19:39.18 | Wormy_away | or were |
19:39.43 | Monet | Might be a different Crytek I'm thinking of unless they have a branch offic |
19:40.00 | Monet | eSince the Crytek I'm thinking of is headquartered in Frankfurt. |

19:40.42 | Technobliterator | Crytek bought Free Radical Development and made it Crytek UK, that must be who Wormy means |
19:40.43 | Technobliterator | spu |
19:41.08 | Wormy_away | First year all the lecturers were made redundant and the course ended after the second, so we were left with no funding for the course. And we were based in a different college, so were like second class citizens |
19:41.10 | OluapPlayer | spu |
19:41.51 | Monet | Technobliterator: Crytek UK became defunct in 2014, other tha nthat I think Wormy's story checks out |
19:42.09 | Wormy_away | Also the area of Nottingham I was in, was the hipster zone |

19:42.40 | Monet | Hi Xho |
19:42.47 | Xho | So I'm back from the cinema, watched the Hateful Eight |
19:43.15 | Monet | I was asking about outside viewers because due to the way my course encourages the use of social media, eve nfirst-years' stuff could be posted around Twitter. |
19:43.25 | Wormy_away | Monet: I was on the course from late 2013 to 2015, so Crytek UK were around in Notts for a while, as I was there. |

19:47.05 | Xho | Personally I don't think it was as good as Django or Inglorious Basterds but still good |
19:47.10 | Monet | I worked out I think it was from one of Donald Trump's escapades that the whole Golf-Playing Executive thing isn't what peopel think it is. |
19:47.24 | Technobliterator | I could've gone, but alas |
19:47.30 | Monet | WHen exectuives play golf, it's like having a lesson in the playground. |

21:12.20 | Xho | You should see the castle Monet built though |
21:12.22 | Xho | Good lord |
21:12.29 | Imperios | "Project Ephialtes, the operation undertaken by Kol Daren to create Sanguine, was named after a deformed warrior who infamously betrayed the Spartans during the Battle of Thermopylae after he was refused membership into their army and revealed a way around the Spartan military to the Persians." |
21:12.49 | Xho | 543 game days has passed in this server |
21:12.54 | Imperios | Could this line be changed somehow? The real Ephialted wasn't a Spartan |
21:13.03 | Hachiman | Sure |
21:13.04 | Xho | I think 500 of those weren't really used by the community |
21:13.21 | Wormy_away | The last time I built something (second server I think), I tried to make a city inside a big gorge in the ground |
21:13.23 | Imperios | All we actually knew about him is that he gave away the info to the Persians |
21:14.29 | Imperios | Ephialtes' movie characterisation originated in the comic |
21:15.22 | Xho | I did burn down a big chunk of forest a few minutes ago |
21:15.53 | Wormy_away | I was quite a vandal in the first server |

23:32.30 | DrodoEmpire | Hi. |
23:32.40 | Primius | dose any1 hav a fickshun i kan joine? |
23:32.49 | DrodoEmpire | Can you speak properly first? |
23:33.09 | Xho | rekt |
23:33.13 | DrodoEmpire | :p |
23:34.25 | Primius | pronounce it |
23:34.33 | DrodoEmpire | If you do begin to type properly, then I'd suggest joining the fantasyverse as it requires more suers |
23:34.38 | Primius | suers |
23:34.54 | Primius | ~sue DrodoEmpire |
23:34.54 | infobot | ACTION acting on orders from an unspecified client, drags DrodoEmpire into court suing for $200 million |
23:35.12 | DrodoEmpire | Pronounce what? That sordid thing you mean to call a sentence? :p |
23:35.31 | DrodoEmpire | I can, but English doesn't work that way and it gives me a hard time |
23:35.34 | Primius | o |
23:35.51 | Primius | does anyone have a joinable fiction? |
23:35.57 | DrodoEmpire | There you go |
23:36.04 | DrodoEmpire | Again I'd check the fantasyverse out |
23:37.38 | Primius | i mean |
23:37.42 | Primius | in the fictionverse |
23:38.06 | Wormy_away | I haven't really got anything for you to join. I'm taking a fiction break for a month, and all my stuff is late into the story to make new fictions have any important part. |
23:38.07 | DrodoEmpire | In that case, I'm not quite sure. |
23:38.15 | Xho | I got nothing in the fictionverse |
23:38.27 | Xho | I don't know why but I can't do character development in the fictionverse |
23:38.48 | Xho | Kicathian Dissension was a half-assed attempt which I will probably never finish |
23:39.12 | Wormy_away | I know dinoman is looking for users in his Endless Space fiction. |
23:39.28 | Primius | great xonexian schism? |
23:39.34 | OluapPlayer | Only thing stopping you is you not getting it done |
23:39.45 | Primius | im up for anything :p |
23:40.04 | DrodoEmpire | Primius: I'd talk to Charles, Wormy, and the like for Xonexi. |
23:40.07 | Xho | Indeed |
23:40.11 | Wormy_away | You'll have to ask other users in GXS, but I would be hard pressed to fit you in my part. GXS will be drawing to a close soon. |
23:40.13 | Xho | And I probably won't get it done :v |
23:40.15 | DrodoEmpire | You can try going on #Katar for that. |
23:40.21 | Primius | k |
23:40.24 | Primius | wait #katar? |
23:40.37 | DrodoEmpire | The thing I just said, yes. |
23:40.39 | OluapPlayer | That's your fault then |
23:40.52 | Xho | The Fantasyverse, well I don't have to wade through so much underdeveloped crap in my fiction to make anything |
23:41.06 | Primius | ~scold OluapPlayer |
23:41.06 | infobot | yells bad OluapPlayer and slaps his/her hands with a ruler |
23:41.18 | OluapPlayer | I'm not talking to you |
23:41.23 | Xho | My fictionverse stuff is so sparse and underdeveloped it's just unusable really |
23:41.33 | Primius | [18:40] <@OluapPlayer> That's your fault then |
23:41.36 | Primius | what is that |
23:41.39 | Xho | He's talking to me |
23:41.40 | OluapPlayer | Can't |
23:41.49 | OluapPlayer | you see I'm talking to someone else |
23:41.56 | OluapPlayer | You're not the only person here |
23:42.17 | Xho | If I could draw a line under all of my fiction in the fictionverse and start again I would |
23:44.31 | Xho | But the clear-cut truth is that I don't enjoy participating in the fictionverse any more |
23:44.45 | Xho | For other users' stuff I can do but anything of my own power |
23:44.47 | Xho | Well eugh |
23:45.02 | OluapPlayer | ur eugh |
23:45.09 | Xho | u |
23:46.29 | Primius | my inteligense level is wat |
23:47.06 | Xho | The Xhodocto I like writing about because I can come up with any post-metaphysical thing to screw with people's heads |
23:47.08 | Xho | Always a terat |
23:47.18 | Xho | terat |
23:47.20 | Xho | treat |
23:47.31 | Xho | Even talking about the Xhodocto gives me typos |
23:48.16 | Primius | ~send xhodocto after xho |
23:48.51 | Xho | Fantasyverse I like writing in because everything's developed |
23:48.59 | Xho | Except the Dalmiric Kingdom and Kelodhrosi Commonwealth |
23:49.06 | Xho | I still need to do that |
