| 00:18.20 | Charles_Bot | Hai :D |
| 00:18.22 | Tybusen | Ohayou |
| 00:18.27 | DrodoEmpire | Hai |
| 00:18.27 | DrodoEmpire | :D |
| 00:18.31 | Charles_Bot | Lol |
| 00:18.34 | DrodoEmpire | Ohio? |
| 00:18.43 | Charles_Bot | Corn |
| 00:18.58 | Charles_Bot | Tybusen : Did you see the French Empire's new relations section? |
| 00:19.03 | Tybusen | Indeed I did |
| 00:19.10 | Charles_Bot | What do you think? ^.^ |
| 00:19.40 | Tybusen | It's an interesting new format and I think it suits France stylistically |
| 00:19.44 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
| 00:19.46 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah I agree |
| 00:20.03 | DrodoEmpire | And as for that last point- I should note that its probably not for every nation |
| 00:20.09 | DrodoEmpire | Just personally |
| 00:20.23 | Charles_Bot | How so? |
| 00:20.30 | Tybusen | That's true, I don't think I would personally use it myself for the TIAF |
| 00:20.39 | DrodoEmpire | Well, its a bit deeper and maybe... I dunno |
| 00:20.51 | DrodoEmpire | Don't wanna say "less personal" because that isn't quite tre |
| 00:20.52 | DrodoEmpire | *ue |
| 00:20.56 | DrodoEmpire | Something like that anyway |
| 00:21.26 | DrodoEmpire | No one thing I can point to and say, it just seems like its a bit more complex, and the focus is on a few nations of interest |
| 00:21.38 | DrodoEmpire | Not every fiction needs or wants that I suppose |
| 00:21.43 | DrodoEmpire | Its a great system though |
| 00:22.00 | Tybusen | It's good for fictions that have a basis or focus on politics and economics, I'd say for one |
| 00:22.06 | Charles_Bot | Right, I intend to pair it with a much more comprehensive system for regular relations |
| 00:22.06 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
| 00:22.10 | DrodoEmpire | Ahh |
| 00:22.24 | DrodoEmpire | Well once I see that system also I'll probably take back what i say |
| 00:22.26 | DrodoEmpire | Still though |
| 00:22.49 | Charles_Bot | It's a kind of "at a glance" thing |
| 00:22.52 | Tybusen | It's not quite as suited for my fiction which has a less solid base in politics and economics and is more focused on characters |
| 00:23.43 | Charles_Bot | Right, though its strength is less on its detail and more on its ability on delivering a lot of information (if you so choose) at-a-glance |
| 00:24.01 | Tybusen | Yeah, that's the big strength of it |
| 00:24.10 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
| 00:24.16 | Tybusen | All the relevant information is there in a convenient package |
| 00:24.34 | Charles_Bot | Meaning that you can pretty much only have that, and already convey a lot of background information on which character stories can be built |
| 00:25.20 | Tybusen | I just personally like having the little in-character blurbs for my own relations pages, personally :U |
| 00:25.49 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah that's fair |
| 00:26.15 | Charles_Bot | Sure |
| 00:26.16 | DrodoEmpire | I personally found them a bit of a chore ('cause I was bad at them <.<) but yeah |
| 00:26.31 | Charles_Bot | The text can be replaced with quotes, I suppose |
| 00:27.48 | Charles_Bot | Any news on the Bunsen story? |
| 00:28.17 | Tybusen | As in the GSC-Eldarisian War? No updates as of yet |
| 00:28.35 | Tybusen | I think I still need to talk to KA again about that |
| 00:55.04 | DrodoEmpire | Did some basic math just for fun- Apparently there is roughly 2.7 trillion Borderlanders in the entire ethnicity |
| 00:55.34 | DrodoEmpire | More precisely 2664 billion, but I'm gonna give or take a few billion |
| 01:03.16 | DrodoEmpire | test |

| 10:06.45 | ImpyDroid | Hi |
| 10:07.05 | ImpyDroid | You know any good videos or articles on Taoism? I would like to read more about it |
| 10:08.10 | Wormy_ | Yes |
| 10:08.29 | Wormy_ | Oh not really articles, I had a couple of books |
| 10:09.22 | Wormy_ | The Te of Piglet, and Secret of the Golden Flower |
| 10:09.39 | Wormy_ | The second one I don't understand at all |
| 10:14.08 | ImpyDroid | >Piglet |
| 10:14.12 | ImpyDroid | Wait what |
| 10:14.29 | Wormy_ | The Tao if Pooh asnd the Te if Piglet |
| 10:14.43 | Wormy_ | Yeah Taoism explained through the Winnie the Pooh |
| 10:15.59 | Wormy_ | Tbh I don't understand to a great length but I've done Tai Chi and Qigong which involves visualisations from Taoist cosmology |

| 10:17.40 | ImpyDroid | Spontaneously |
| 10:17.49 | ImpyDroid | So operating more on gut feeling and the like? |
| 10:18.46 | Wormy_ | Perhaps, yes. But the way I interpret it is something like Buddhism. We believe in duality to our perception and thought processes. Eastern philosophy is about unasking dualities to transcend them. |
| 10:18.58 | Wormy_ | *They believe in |
| 10:19.34 | Wormy_ | A duality might be some psychological barrier one always creates even subconsciously |
| 10:20.16 | Wormy_ | Taoists have a rich description of Yin and Yang in the world, however I believe they believe in transcending it |
| 10:22.29 | Wormy_ | Hm, like a Gestalt, a synthesis of something new from all the parts |
| 10:23.21 | Wormy_ | I suppose they are tapping into that flow we all feel when working on something we like in a professional state |
| 10:26.26 | Wormy_ | Alan Watts was one of the first to introduce Eastern ideas to the West in modern times, plenty of videos of him. But he wasn't preachy. |

| 11:16.25 | Imperios | Wormy_ Ghelae AdmiralPanda: I just had a thought about the mass collab |
| 11:16.37 | Imperios | Humans IRL are very genetically uniform compared to most animals, right? |
| 11:16.48 | Imperios | And there is a theory that we came through a bottleneck even at some point in our history |
| 11:17.55 | Monet | Indeed |
| 11:18.55 | Monet | Though in regards to evolved features, humans might seem uniform because we're better adapted ot recognising each other by appearance |
| 11:19.41 | Monet | Many animals use semll to identify each other. ANd coat markings are one possible way to help be identified by other family members |
| 11:19.45 | Wormy_ | I agree with both lines. |
| 11:20.23 | Imperios | Now one way to introduce many humanoid races to our world is by implying that, unlike the humans on Earth, our main humanoid species never went near-extinct and thus retained much more genetic diversity |
| 11:20.59 | Imperios | So Star Trek-ish races would be just natural subspecies of our main species, either native to the main planet or somehow transplanted to other worlds |
| 11:21.54 | Monet | I think we could manage the former based on how varied humans can be |
| 11:23.26 | Monet | <PROTECTED> |
| 11:23.29 | Imperios | Maybe our world was just larger and more diverse than Earth in fact |
| 11:27.24 | Wormy_ | If you allow the humans/human-like species to become isolated for long periods, interesting features like dwarfism can result |
| 11:28.13 | Wormy_ | Like Homo floresiensis |
| 11:28.31 | Imperios | A flair of space fantasy that is not Fictionverse-style space fantasy |
| 11:28.35 | Imperios | I am intersted hur |
| 11:29.46 | Wormy_ | There was a Stephen Baxter story of a world created by future humans which consisted of multiple histories stitched together. There were birdlike humans, seal-like humans and many more all inhabiting the same world. |
| 11:38.04 | Ghelae | Yes, this idea sounds reasonable. |
| 11:40.05 | Wormy_ | bye |
| 11:40.08 | Ghelae | It doesn't allow a huge degre of variety... but to the extent of Star Trek humanoids, and perhaps even the Capricyranae, it would work. |
| 11:40.57 | Wormy_away | Hereditary disease can effect whole communities |
| 11:41.18 | Wormy_away | I think a small group of people were unearthed with melon shaped skulls |

| 14:38.43 | TekExams | TL;DR Britain in the World Wars wasn't the brave heroic place that wartime propaganda claims and the bias negatively influence how we view history. |
| 14:38.43 | TekExams | TL;DR of the TL;DR People make other people think Britain was better than it actually was. |
| 14:38.52 | TekExams | 10:38 AM <TekExams> TL;DR of the TL;DR People make other people think Britain was better than it actually was. |
| 14:40.42 | TekExams | And now having done that I have a three hour exam after lunch. |
| 14:41.44 | OluapPlayer | Xho: "Sometimes I forget Garry is a real person and not some made up internet character we invented back pre-2011" |
| 14:42.56 | Monet | TekExams: I remember hering there were a lot of issues with the black market in wartime |
| 14:45.21 | Wormy_away | "Gold had these natures: greatness of weight, closeness of parts, fixation, pliableness or softness, immunity from rust, colour or tincture of yellow. *If a man could make a metal that had all these properties, let men dispute whether it be gold or no.*" Francis Bacon |
| 14:45.42 | Wormy_away | Gives a window into the minds of alchemists |
| 14:45.48 | TekExams | I mostly went over a list of everything I recalled from the class. Paragraph topic I can remember... Not wanting to insult veterans biases things, Britain's class divide was still significant during the war, the wars were as significant for Feminism as they claim... |
| 14:46.22 | Wormy_away | It might not have been about making gold, it was about making a metal like gold by manipulating it's inner structure |
| 14:48.42 | Monet | TekDroid: Back then iirc the idea of women in factories was not neccesserily empowerment to women |
| 14:48.55 | Monet | It was a logical choice as so many men went to war. |
| 14:49.48 | Ghelae | Wormy_away: Or it could have been an insight that what makes things what they are is their physical and chemical properties; there is no intrinsic "gold-ness" besides that. Naturally this was before nuclear physics provided a better way of defining the elements. |
| 14:51.06 | DrodoEmpire | Monet: Though empowering women was a positive side-effect |
| 14:51.14 | DrodoEmpire | That eventually led to equal rights and whatnot |
| 14:51.24 | Monet | Indeed |
| 14:51.24 | Wormy_away | It probably does relate, as the alchemists did come to appreciate unseen properties beneath the appearance of the metal. |
| 14:51.48 | TekExams | Monet: and in the post-war female employment had basically reverted to pre-war levels. |

| 14:55.26 | DrodoEmpire | wat |
| 14:55.27 | OluapPlayer | 5 minutes |
| 14:55.29 | OluapPlayer | Impressive |
| 14:55.53 | TekExams | I'm guessing some glitch that takes you to the endgame. |
| 14:57.28 | Technobliterator | It was 4:57:30 or something |
| 14:57.35 | Technobliterator | Well, it's not a glitch, but |
| 14:57.44 | Technobliterator | there are these shortcuts through pipes that take you to warp zones |
| 14:58.01 | Technobliterator | This speedrunner used two of them to end up in the final world basically immediately |
| 14:58.12 | OluapPlayer | But in 5 minutes? |
| 14:58.13 | Technobliterator | Then defeated Bowser |
| 14:58.14 | Wormy_away | Ghelae: Gold was associated with immortality because no substance was known to attack it, it was seen as eternally lasting. Thus there was probably some property they wanted to capture. |
| 14:58.28 | Technobliterator | Well, that and he looked so dangerously close to being hit |
| 14:58.28 | OluapPlayer | Even with the shortcuts it'd take me 20-30 minutes |
| 14:58.51 | Technobliterator | But he knows all the hit boxes from the enemies and whatnot so he managed to barely avoid death many times |
| 14:59.12 | Technobliterator | it was just him running across and jumping frantically and he only ever stopped once |
| 14:59.16 | Technobliterator | like how is he not dead yet |
| 14:59.37 | Ghelae | Wormy_away: Most of the alchemists, yes. I think it's either standard magical thinking along the lines of "gold contains incorruptability", or symbolism for a sort of spiritual immortality. Presumably different alchemists held different beliefs on the matter. |
| 15:00.05 | Ghelae | Francis Bacon may have had a more physicalistic mindset on the matter; I don't know. |
| 15:00.20 | Wormy_away | I think that quote may imply it |
| 15:00.35 | Wormy_away | A very metallurgical point of view |
| 15:01.20 | Wormy_away | I assume by then, bronze, iron and steelwork weren't seen as magical as they were in Ancient times, could be wrong |
| 15:04.29 | Wormy_away | Maybe not, iron was associated with strength and maleness |

| 15:28.03 | Hachiman | Hi |
| 15:31.44 | Monet | Hi |
| 15:49.06 | Hachiman | So, I watched an interesting video discussing the existence of a "happiness industry", how happiness is considered a mandatory social responsibility, and how companies and businesses exploit happiness to make you do things you do not want to do and suppress other emotions |
| 15:50.25 | Hachiman | How people are brainwashed into believing that it is mandatory and a responsibility for them to maintain happiness in spite of whatever situations they are put through because otherwise they would be cast out by other people |
| 15:50.56 | Hachiman | And that personal happiness does not always correlate with a person's personal strive for happiness |
| 15:51.07 | Hachiman | -second personal happiness |
| 15:51.10 | Monet | ny examples of this happiness industry? |
| 15:51.11 | Hachiman | I meant personal justice |
| 15:54.01 | Hachiman | Businesses that require long hours and actively work to screw over its employees for corporate benefit use tactics to boaster happiness to hide any potential injustices from being perceived |
| 15:54.18 | Hachiman | And superstores use sales to boast happiness in people in order to get them to spend more |
| 15:54.42 | Monet | Ahh yes...sales. |
| 15:55.02 | Wormy_away | I find it weird how the most common last drink amongst death row prisoners is Coca Cola. |
| 15:55.57 | Monet | What proportion of customers are actively aware that an item cost more ot buy before the sale might be low |
| 15:56.49 | Hachiman | Also, contrary to what most people believe about how emotions are chaotic and disruptive, emotions are actually useful for organizing rational thinking rather as they affect your perception |
| 15:57.06 | Monet | I am also reminded of corporate teambuilding days, like company paintball. |
| 15:57.17 | Hachiman | Or at least, that is what certain studies have claimed |
| 15:58.18 | Hachiman | Anger is useful for recognizing unjustness and unfair treatment, fear is useful for making sure you are safe from harm |
| 16:00.35 | Monet | From an evolutionary standpoint yeah, emotions make sense |
| 16:00.48 | Hachiman | There have been a string of studies bringing up the case of happiness being deemed obligatory in modern society and culture, and that happiness = justice when in fact it does not |
| 16:01.26 | Hachiman | That people are made to blanket feelings of uncertainty or unfairness with happiness and that if they do not, they are the oddball |
| 16:01.39 | Monet | When we're happy, we have no reaso not argue or question. |
| 16:03.38 | Hachiman | One disgusting example is how that people who feel unhappy are often given or prescribed drugs in order to remove or suppress emotions that challenge happiness |
| 16:04.10 | Hachiman | Because not being happy means you are less productive |
| 16:05.05 | Monet | Treating depression with pills, urgh. |
| 16:06.13 | Monet | But basically yes |
| 16:06.26 | Monet | WHen people are happy, they're also productive |
| 16:06.40 | Hachiman | Companies make their employees feel that they should be happy to work a job they hate rather than leave it |
| 16:07.01 | Monet | Now ocnsider the Asgord have happy rays. |
| 16:07.21 | Hachiman | Aye; the Asgord is an interesting example of the "happiness industry" taken up to 11 |
| 16:08.27 | Monet | Sometimes I wonder if the Ascord are more nightmarish than comic |
| 16:08.32 | OluapPlayer | Asgord are a good example of why aliens are scary and we should keep away from space |
| 16:09.12 | Monet | Turns out for more than "you're cute let me pet you" |
| 16:10.09 | OluapPlayer | Asgord themselves are just that though, they're cartoony like everything Irsk ever made |
| 16:10.20 | Xho | And terrifying |
| 16:10.36 | DrodoHL2RP | PM me if you need something |
| 16:11.17 | Monet | With this happy ray concept |
| 16:11.34 | Monet | Are they alien hippies or an alien Ingsoc? |
| 16:11.52 | Monet | Or...BOTH |
| 16:12.06 | OluapPlayer | They're Spore aliens |
| 16:12.13 | OluapPlayer | Alien ray is a thing in Spore |
| 16:12.18 | Hachiman | Funny to mention that because the "happiness industry" is considered to tie into the manipulative nature of ultra-capitalist society |
| 16:12.21 | OluapPlayer | Happy ray even |
| 16:13.10 | Monet | I think Irskaad's ficiton may have hada capitalist angle ot it |
| 16:13.18 | Monet | Course you did haveu ltra-capitalists like the Dagorians. |
| 16:14.07 | Monet | But considering how capitalist EUrovision is (surely a celebration of European music would have less pop) |

| 16:14.43 | Monet | I'm willing ot bet the original Kraw secretly worshipped the Almighty Kron. |
| 16:17.48 | Hachiman | Plato once argued that happiness is not a pursuit of pleasure - which ties into materialism which is intrinsic to capitalist society in how it is governed - but a pursuit of virtue and justice - non-material things which are becoming increasingly absent from first world cultures and powers |
| 16:18.47 | Monet | Are you watching School of Life? |
| 16:18.59 | Hachiman | I am not |
| 16:19.13 | Monet | Just curious |
| 16:20.00 | OluapPlayer | Hachiman: stop trying to be intellectual and check this http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction%3ADa_Reckoning#The_Rogue_Sin |
| 16:20.26 | Hachiman | I am watching Wisecrack's evaluation on Inside Out and how Joy, the main character and the personification of happiness, is actually the villain due to how their controlling and imposing influence on the other characters causes a lot of the problems present in the film |
| 16:20.37 | Hachiman | Or at least, unwitting villain |
| 16:21.36 | Monet | Oh WIsecrack. |
| 16:22.26 | Monet | Imagining Joy like that is...yeah. I like the sound of it. |
| 16:24.59 | Monet | Oh blody hell that DevilJoy. |
| 16:29.22 | Hachiman | OluapPlayer: Good section that, honestly the whole time travel business is confusing for me but seeing the Rogue Sin is pretty cool |
| 16:29.41 | Hachiman | And how the Loron accidentally created a god is both funny and horrifying at the same time |
| 16:29.55 | Charles_Murray | >the Loron accidentally created a god |
| 16:30.00 | Charles_Murray | Oh my |
| 16:30.03 | OluapPlayer | The Loron went back in time into the same timeline to stop themselves from starting the war |
| 16:30.12 | OluapPlayer | That led to a time paradox that gave birth to the Rogue Sin |
| 16:30.35 | Charles_Murray | lol, that's clever |
| 16:31.40 | Technobliterator | you have to admit though |
| 16:31.47 | Technobliterator | it was hilarious watching the Loron argue with their past selves |
| 16:31.53 | Technobliterator | that's some of the most fun I've ever had in an rp |
| 16:32.34 | OluapPlayer | They had an incredibly petty argument and killed each other for it |
| 16:32.38 | OluapPlayer | loron.jpg |
| 16:33.22 | Technobliterator | Kal'kuir - DIS GUN IS DA BEST GUN EVA *kills past self in one hit* WAT DA HELL WE DIDNT EVEN FITE YET |
| 16:33.55 | OluapPlayer | SHUT UP FOR GOD'S SAKE I KNOW HOW TO CLIMB A LADDER JESUS OW MY EAR |
| 16:36.21 | Technobliterator | I loev how I managed to make it so even Rel'larutina get into a petty argument with her past self |
| 16:36.31 | OluapPlayer | Not so above it all |
| 16:37.42 | Hachiman | Aye |
| 16:37.54 | Hachiman | Not all that surprising considering that Rel'larutina is bitchy hur |
| 16:41.04 | Technobliterator | honestly the only two sensible people in Da Rogue Boyz were the two who had no one to fight anyway |
| 16:41.16 | Technobliterator | oh, I guess Knar'gank kind of is |

| 17:10.42 | Xho | The Champion of Cyrodiil is like the ultimate representation of diversity |
| 17:10.57 | Xho | Serves the Nine -> Serves the Daedra -> Serves Sithis -> Is a Daedra |
| 17:13.54 | OluapPlayer | dats submissive as shit he serves everyone ever |
| 17:15.01 | Xho | But then he becomes Sheogorath and top kek inbound |
| 17:16.01 | Hachiman | I don't get how Sheogorath and the Champion of Cyrodiil are the same person |
| 17:16.15 | Hachiman | I thought Sheogorath was another Daedra, Jyggalag or something |
| 17:16.45 | Cyrannian | The champion became Sheogorath at the end of the Shivering Isles DLC IIRC |
| 17:16.48 | OluapPlayer | Champion freed Jyggalag of his cycle-prison thing and was turned into a new Sheogorath as a reward |
| 17:16.49 | OluapPlayer | or something |
| 17:17.28 | Xho | Both are true |

| 17:22.39 | Xho | Unfortunately working on my own stuff is not entertaining |
| 17:23.36 | Xho | I'm tempted to scrap Voidwalker |

| 17:24.42 | OluapPlayer | Make things in Spore |
| 17:24.46 | Xho | liek wat |
| 17:25.07 | Luxor | Liek pizza saucers |
| 17:25.12 | OluapPlayer | new Asdf-asdf |
| 17:25.22 | OluapPlayer | like you said you would yesterday |
| 17:25.25 | Xho | Asdf-asdf jesus |
| 17:25.30 | Xho | Eh suppose I could |
| 17:26.44 | Monet | Alright alright I get it |
| 17:27.49 | Monet | If you hate editing the fictionverse then there's little reason not to keep Voidwalker |
| 17:27.58 | Xho | I just don't get any amusement out of the fictionverse |
| 17:28.09 | Xho | I find it incredibly inflexible |
| 17:28.22 | Luxor | Imagine you can bend global history |
| 17:28.30 | Luxor | what would you modify? |
| 17:28.37 | Xho | I would remove selfie sticks |
| 17:28.40 | Luxor | good. |
| 17:28.50 | Cyrannian | K-T extinction event |
| 17:29.04 | Luxor | I would remove Stalin and replace him with Trotsky. |
| 17:29.19 | Xho | As for the Fantasyverse it's a small enough setting for me to work with |
| 17:29.33 | Xho | Fictionverse is unruly and huge in comparison |
| 17:30.02 | Luxor | Too big as for me. I often loose the, let's say, the continuity of activity because of this reason. |
| 17:30.10 | Xho | Same |
| 17:30.25 | Xho | I don't nearly have enough imagination for the Fictionverse as I do the Fantasyverse |
| 17:30.29 | Luxor | And being lazy is the second reason... |
| 17:30.48 | Cyrannian | Why not merge fantasy with your fictionverse fiction like Dino does |
| 17:30.54 | OluapPlayer | EEEEEEEEEEEE |
| 17:30.56 | OluapPlayer | no |
| 17:31.03 | Cyrannian | As in, fantasy aspects, not fantasyverse fiction |
| 17:31.09 | Luxor | ...isn't the collab such an experiment? |
| 17:31.19 | Xho | I couldn't really bring myself to do that |
| 17:31.25 | OluapPlayer | fantasy aspects |
| 17:31.30 | Luxor | Doe it rather fuses the characteristics of both |
| 17:31.31 | OluapPlayer | We already have these |
| 17:31.59 | Cyrannian | shup twas a good suggestion |
| 17:32.01 | Xho | The main link between the Fantasyverse and the Fictionverse is Caligaduro/Xhodocto |
| 17:32.27 | Monet | I get how the fictionverse feels huge and unruly. |
| 17:32.38 | Luxor | If I didn't hate fictionverse i might have liked it |
| 17:32.39 | Xho | That's just aspects wise not actual link |
| 17:32.42 | Monet | Though were more people to join the fantasyverse, what then? |
| 17:32.58 | Xho | I'd probably ignore most of the users really |
| 17:33.00 | Luxor | I just think fantasy is sooo boring |
| 17:33.16 | Xho | My brain doesn't really work well with more than five people in one setting |
| 17:33.57 | Luxor | ( ͡° ÍÊ Í¡Â°) <-- test |
| 17:34.02 | Luxor | oh, it worked! |
| 17:34.53 | Monet | WHat I mean is the fantasyverse might lose some of its flexibility. |
| 17:35.04 | Xho | Still the same repsonse |
| 17:36.06 | Xho | The Fantasyverse's absolutes are rather hard set anyway so |
| 17:36.24 | Hachiman | PLUS NO FRANCE LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL |
| 17:36.36 | Hachiman | jk |
| 17:36.40 | Xho | rly nao |
| 17:36.49 | Luxor | \frac{\left(2^x-\sin \left(x\right)\right)}{\tan \left(2^x\right)} |
| 17:36.50 | Monet | Maybe... making the Kicath a hyperpower wasn't the best decision. I can understand why but I myself am feeling a similar fatigue. |
| 17:36.57 | Luxor | type this in desmos.com/calculator |
| 17:37.04 | Xho | Oh the Kicathian hyperpower thing's not my issue |
| 17:37.04 | Luxor | I think I just broke the maths |
| 17:37.15 | Xho | I've never been consistent with writng anything since the Fictionverse started |
| 17:37.20 | Xho | writing |
| 17:37.42 | Monet | But holding that sort of title might not be so fun. |
| 17:37.49 | Xho | Xhodocto |
| 17:38.13 | Xho | Hyperpower's rather small in comparison when I write about or with the Xhodocto |
| 17:38.34 | Luxor | \sqrt{\left(2^x-\sin \left(x\right)\right)} |
| 17:38.37 | Xho | To be honest I think it's the science element |
| 17:38.42 | Xho | The need to explain everything bothers me |
| 17:38.44 | Xho | A lot |
| 17:38.49 | Monet | You never did like maths. |
| 17:39.04 | Luxor | no |
| 17:39.12 | Monet | I'd say the Xhodocto are easy to manage. |
| 17:39.18 | Xho | They are |
| 17:39.23 | Monet | compared to keeping a hyperpower a hyperpoer. |
| 17:39.34 | Luxor | hyperpoor* |
| 17:40.17 | Xho | To me the fictionverse has just turned into an endlessly mundane continuation of the same thing with different names |
| 17:41.10 | Luxor | It strongly strict the limits for new creations |
| 17:41.13 | TekExams | 2nd Exam time. :/ |
| 17:41.14 | Monet | Not sure if I can comment safely but well... |
| 17:41.25 | Luxor | stricts* |
| 17:43.33 | Xho | That being said I haven't really kept up with the Fictionverse since 2014 |
| 17:43.38 | Xho | Or earlier |
| 17:43.50 | Luxor | Belg leftie says that NATO meeting in Warsaw should be shut down |
| 17:44.12 | Luxor | EU is such a crap nowadays |
| 17:44.20 | Luxor | But continue talking about FU |
| 17:45.40 | Luxor | oh |
| 17:46.05 | Monet | Is it aobut Europe though? |
| 17:46.28 | Luxor | Yes. |
| 17:46.36 | Monet | I'm seeing talk of increased NATO soldiers in Central Europe. |
| 17:46.43 | Luxor | Yup. |
| 17:46.50 | Luxor | There is a lot of mess aroun this. |
| 17:46.52 | Luxor | around* |
| 17:46.58 | Luxor | my d key might not work properly |
| 17:47.08 | Luxor | Germoney says this is a bad idea |
| 17:47.10 | Monet | And how does it relate to the EU besides geographic relevance? |
| 17:47.50 | Luxor | american research proved that russians would land in Bucharesht, Vilnius, Riga, Tallin, Kiev, Warsaw in 36 hours. |
| 17:48.01 | Luxor | But why does Germoneys dislike this? |
| 17:48.28 | Luxor | Because 'Muricans keep a shoe over these nazi cunts (@!) not to start expansion again |
| 17:48.46 | Monet | The EU enjoys a stance it doesn't like using its military. |
| 17:48.47 | Luxor | Though I do not understand anything related to current german politics atm. |
| 17:48.59 | Luxor | EU has no military. |
| 17:49.37 | Monet | Also that's a horrid thing to say about Germany. |
| 17:49.55 | Monet | The population generally wants to forget aobut Nazi Germany |
| 17:50.03 | Luxor | Perhaps |
| 17:50.13 | Luxor | But German society is far too much to the left |
| 17:50.22 | Luxor | And does not see it's collapse |
| 17:50.24 | Luxor | brb |
| 17:51.01 | Luxor | back. |
| 17:51.51 | Luxor | So, overall, I never liked those post-Sovnazi. |
| 17:52.22 | Monet | You're right about Military |
| 17:53.21 | Monet | Out of the big four powers in Eurasia - UK, France, Germany and Russia - Germany has the smallest military budget. |
| 17:53.32 | Luxor | Yes. |
| 17:54.23 | Luxor | ((Polish warriors became world champions in International Medieval Combat Federation)) |

| 20:29.16 | Xho | OluapPlayer: https://www.facebook.com/sam.kalidi/videos/10153875159646622/ Shu'wokerama is a sucker for Santorakh's parties |

| 20:30.12 | OluapPlayer | Or at least I assume so |
| 20:30.21 | DrodoEmpire | Wormy_: I saw that map before, very interesting |
| 20:30.22 | OluapPlayer | You're the one who calls the setting "Thirteen Planes" |
| 20:30.48 | Xho | Technically fourteen but there's still twelve Simulacra realms |
| 20:31.03 | Xho | Or fifteen actually with Koldenwelt |
| 20:31.06 | Wormy_ | I can't tell if it reads "Badlands" or "islands", is that the British Isles? |
| 20:31.54 | Xho | Islands and I'm thinking Channel Islands |
| 20:32.05 | DrodoEmpire | The British isles were known as the "Tin Islands" |
| 20:32.15 | DrodoEmpire | I do believe |
| 20:32.35 | AdmiralPanda | ^ because it was one of the better places to get tin |
| 20:32.45 | Xho | tin islands man that's poor nomenclature there |

| 21:32.01 | ImpyDroid2 | There is one thing they are good for |

| 21:33.49 | ImpyDroid2 | >There was no reaction, but Ennea could feel Alhazred's texture was unlike that of any normal book. It felt much like rough skin |
| 21:34.09 | ImpyDroid2 | Wouldn't a medieval book literally be made of skin though |
| 21:34.48 | OluapPlayer | I wouldn't know |
| 21:34.56 | OluapPlayer | Why would you make a book out of human skin? |
| 21:34.59 | Charles_Bot | Leather, typically |
| 21:35.00 | ImpyDroid2 | not human skin |
| 21:35.02 | ImpyDroid2 | Parchment |
| 21:35.08 | ImpyDroid2 | Parchment is leather yeah |
| 21:35.17 | Technobliterator | ImpyDroid2, did you get to check out Reckoning? :o |
| 21:35.21 | OluapPlayer | Alhazred is made out of Sanguinary skin |
| 21:35.21 | ImpyDroid2 | NOOOOO |
| 21:35.43 | ImpyDroid2 | So basically parchment |
| 21:35.47 | Xho_ | anthropodermic bibliopegy ftw |
| 21:35.52 | Xho_ | wait what |
| 21:35.54 | OluapPlayer | I don't know what that is |
| 21:35.57 | ImpyDroid2 | I presume it feels more... alive or something? |
| 21:36.03 | OluapPlayer | Alhazred is a demon in the shape of a book |
| 21:36.06 | Xho_ | Anthropodermic bibliopegy = books bounded in human skin |
| 21:36.14 | Xho_ | bound* |
| 21:36.18 | OluapPlayer | Yes he feels like a living creature |
| 21:36.23 | ImpyDroid2 | OluapPlayer: Specifically worked skin used instead as paper |
| 21:36.24 | OluapPlayer | Because he's a demon shaped like a book |
| 21:36.49 | ImpyDroid2 | You shouldn't be angry, I just asked hur |
| 21:37.01 | OluapPlayer | I'm not angry dumbo |
| 21:37.01 | ImpyDroid2 | Sorry if I sounded rude |
| 21:37.03 | OluapPlayer | I'm explaining |
| 21:37.12 | ImpyDroid2 | Rite |
| 21:37.13 | Xho_ | daemonodermic bibliopegy |
| 21:37.21 | Xho_ | Books bound in demon's skin there you go |
| 21:38.04 | ImpyDroid2 | OluapPlayer: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parchment#/media/File%3AParchment_from_goatskin.jpg For example |
| 21:38.19 | OluapPlayer | I see |
| 21:38.27 | ImpyDroid2 | Hell that makes me think what materials are used for books in the Fantasy verse |
| 21:39.13 | OluapPlayer | Ah i know what it is now that I found the translation |
| 21:39.14 | Monet | UNiversity diplomas used to be inscribed onto treated sheepskin. |
| 21:39.25 | OluapPlayer | But no Alhazred is made out of blood demon flesh |
| 21:40.06 | ImpyDroid2 | I for some reason imagine humans use paper, elves parchment and Merovar papyrus |
| 21:40.19 | ImpyDroid2 | Also that is a pretty interesting development |
| 21:40.34 | ImpyDroid2 | So gothiqt is now depowered essentially |
| 21:40.35 | Xho_ | Shiarchon literature is on engraved metal |
| 21:40.42 | OluapPlayer | She is |
| 21:40.46 | OluapPlayer | She has no way to cast magic |
| 21:40.48 | Xho_ | I'm yet to read that section btw, I'm editing a page |
| 21:40.55 | ImpyDroid2 | Xho_: Fucking intense |
| 21:41.04 | Hachiman | Shiarchon do it Flintstones styles |
| 21:41.12 | Hachiman | Kalarah - YABBA DABBA DOO |
| 21:41.12 | OluapPlayer | Kalarah - GRAND DAD |
| 21:41.19 | Xho_ | Caligaduro - i regret many things |
| 21:41.21 | OluapPlayer | What a contrast there |
| 21:41.48 | Xho_ | It's usually a series of thin metal blocks strung together in such a way to be rolled up into a scroll |
| 21:41.54 | Xho_ | Blocks is a bad word |
| 21:41.54 | Xho_ | strops |
| 21:41.57 | Xho_ | even worse |
| 21:41.58 | Xho_ | strips |
| 21:42.00 | AdmiralPanda | OluapPlayer The_Randomness Hachiman Monet u twats awake? |
| 21:42.00 | Xho_ | there we go |
| 21:42.07 | The_Randomness | ye |
| 21:42.12 | OluapPlayer | nfghh |

| 21:42.16 | OluapPlayer | zzzzzz |
| 21:42.20 | AdmiralPanda | fuk u get awake |
| 21:42.24 | Hachiman | zzzz |
| 21:42.53 | AdmiralPanda | straps Hachiman and OluapPlayer to a rocket and shoots them into the sun Heihachi style |
| 21:43.08 | OluapPlayer | Well now I can't be awake since I'm fucking dead |
| 21:43.10 | OluapPlayer | way to go m8 |
| 21:43.16 | ImpyDroid2 | Xho: So like Chinese bamboo scrolls except metal |
| 21:43.35 | Xho_ | Yes |
| 21:44.22 | Monet | AdmiralPanda: MAking dinner |
| 21:44.37 | AdmiralPanda | right, when you're back from that then we can talk about punks of a cybernetic nature |
| 21:44.56 | Wormy_ | So there's a bird in Africa and Asia that has a relationship with humans by leading them to bee hives with a specific call for humans, so that humans collect the honey and pay a fee to the bird. Legend has it, if no honey is given, the bird would lead people to a lion's den next time. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honeyguide |
| 21:45.25 | DrodoEmpire | That's quite interesting |
| 21:47.10 | Monet | OKay thanks ot that discussion I decided to see what vellum is |
| 21:48.26 | Monet | Paper made from animal skin |
| 21:48.41 | Hachiman | I read that as "people made from animal skin" for a moment |
| 21:49.00 | Wormy_ | sauce http://www.discovery.com/tv-shows/human-planet/videos/follow-the-honeyguide-deleted/ |
| 21:50.06 | Wormy_ | oh it got deleted |
| 21:50.06 | Monet | So I guess for much of history people didn't kill trees to make books. |
| 21:50.23 | Monet | They killed animals lol. |
| 21:50.57 | Wormy_ | People still do #peta |
| 21:51.55 | Monet | Well at least people back then didn't kill cattle just for the meat |
| 21:53.02 | Xho_ | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Captain:Asv-Aldz Asv-Aldz just got a +500 evil karma |
| 21:53.35 | OluapPlayer | Mortium - dum eyeless totem |
| 21:54.52 | OluapPlayer | "His arms and legs as well as his face appear to be made of solid gold or highly valuable minerals." |
| 21:54.59 | OluapPlayer | For some reason I always thought he was made of wood |
| 21:55.13 | OluapPlayer | Might be the brown colour and somewhat blocky design |
| 21:55.19 | Xho_ | Asv-Aldz - Simulacrum of Wealth you have not been paying attention |
| 21:55.34 | OluapPlayer | Vargash - too busy throwin tentacles at u |
| 21:55.34 | Xho_ | I need to redo his model though I have no ideas |
| 21:55.58 | Xho_ | But yeah now he's untrustworthy enough to have had dealings with Caligaduro in the past |
| 21:56.45 | OluapPlayer | Vargash - still gonna throw tentacles at u for gud measure |
| 21:57.22 | Xho_ | I'm not sure what to do with Aethereus, Nalashtannylor and Kinmo |
| 21:57.30 | Xho_ | They're all incarnations of what essentially is the same entity |
| 21:57.34 | OluapPlayer | Birb³ |
| 21:57.47 | OluapPlayer | >Asv-Aldz is known for stealing souls out of the Underworld when it suits him, much to the ire of Mortium |
| 21:57.53 | OluapPlayer | Mortium - stone person stew |
| 21:57.54 | Xho_ | Asv-Aldz - |
| 21:57.56 | Xho_ | bah |
| 21:58.04 | Xho_ | Asv-Aldz - #longinus #nicepiercingstho |
| 21:58.39 | Xho_ | Still though not sure what to do |
| 21:59.05 | Xho_ | Aethereus was technically a Simulacrum since Nalashtannylor rules over Midnight of which Aethereus formerly did |
| 21:59.40 | Xho_ | So in some respect, Aethereus, Nalashtannylor and God!Kinmo are all different incarnations of Nalashtannylor/Aethereus/I'm getting too confused now |
| 22:00.10 | Xho_ | This is why the Néva call him the Night Father |
| 22:00.20 | OluapPlayer | That's not different from Rama-Squid being 3 entities who together are the Simulacrum of crazy |
| 22:00.33 | Xho_ | Well, Rama-Squid consists of three entities |
| 22:00.56 | Xho_ | Nalashtannylor is almost a title given to three different entities |
| 22:01.05 | Xho_ | Sort of |
| 22:01.24 | Xho_ | Aethereus, Kinmo and Nalashtannylor don't make up one entity as such |
| 22:01.44 | Xho_ | They're all different entities with the position of power as the Simulacrum of Purity |
| 22:01.57 | Xho_ | It's all to do with divine mantling as it were |
| 22:02.23 | OluapPlayer | Vargash - in the end its all turkey |
| 22:02.38 | Xho_ | Caligaduro fucks up Aethereus -> Nalashtannylor is deified in his place -> Kinmo and Nalashtannylor get fucked up so God!Kinmo is reborn and deified |
| 22:02.57 | Xho_ | But I don't know what to do with the pages |
| 22:03.00 | Xho_ | I could merge all three |
| 22:03.12 | OluapPlayer | Caligaduro - it's time for thanksgiving again |
| 22:03.55 | OluapPlayer | If they're different entities then they should probably have different pages, but saying "he was the simulacrum before receiving the caligaduro dong" |
| 22:04.03 | Xho_ | seven pronged dong |
| 22:04.06 | Xho_ | good lord |
| 22:04.16 | OluapPlayer | Caligaduro is actually just a really big evil echidna |
| 22:04.39 | Xho_ | Caligaduro - anteating these fucking ants you call mortals |
| 22:04.39 | OluapPlayer | Anyway gotta get dinner now |
| 22:06.05 | Xho_ | "Jonah Cardeli Falcon (born 1970) is an American actor and writer. He came to national attention in the early 2000s for his large penis, reported as the largest on record at 13.5 inches (34 cm) erect." |
| 22:06.08 | Xho_ | what in the fuck |
| 22:06.34 | Hachiman | WHOOPS, I DROPPED MY *MONSTER CONDOM* THAT I USE FOR MY *MAGNUM DONG* |
| 22:07.08 | Xho_ | oh god |
| 22:07.31 | Xho_ | I'm surprised he would get headrush |
| 22:07.34 | Xho_ | wouldn't |
| 22:07.38 | Xho_ | I cna't Eneglush |
| 22:07.43 | Xho_ | See what the fuck is that |
| 22:07.45 | Hachiman | olol |
| 22:08.13 | AdmiralPanda | I'm surprised that guy wasn't more famous for passing out from blood loss every time he got hard |
| 22:08.35 | Xho_ | That's what I tried to say |
| 22:08.39 | Xho_ | But failed miserably |
| 22:09.02 | Hachiman | I feel sorry for his girlfriends |
| 22:10.01 | Xho_ | I don't even wanna think about it |
| 22:13.30 | Xho_ | Hachiman: https://www.facebook.com/TheTabBristol/posts/1150602714950282 |
| 22:14.21 | Hachiman | Brilliant |
| 22:19.04 | ImpyDroid2 | OluapPlayer: Is it actually possible for Sims to steal souls from the Underworld |
| 22:19.59 | Monet | AdmiralPanda: Ready |
| 22:20.50 | ImpyDroid2 | Xho: >Asv-Aldz is perhaps the most narcissistic and capricious of the twelve Simulacra; |
| 22:21.21 | ImpyDroid2 | Kalisearan - NUUUUU |
| 22:22.04 | OluapPlayer | ImpyDroid2: I imagine so but I would prefer if it were not a common occurrence |
| 22:22.22 | OluapPlayer | Since Mortium is also a Simulacrum with a scythe that can hurt other Simulacra |
| 22:23.41 | AdmiralPanda | Hachiman Monet: en-skype-ify yourselves pls |
| 22:23.47 | ImpyDroid2 | Right so I cannot have Einerjar for Alar'xashan for example |
| 22:24.35 | Xho_ | Asv-Aldz does it out of request as it was in Eschaton |
| 22:24.39 | Xho_ | Though not without payment |
| 22:25.03 | Xho_ | Like hell would he risk taking a soul out of the Underworld and not get something in return for it |

| 23:24.01 | Hachiman | kek |
| 23:24.28 | Monet | The war's official name is "The Northern War" |
| 23:24.30 | Monet | Which...gives me some indication of its magnitude |
| 23:25.00 | Monet | And ho-ly shit I forgot the Imperium is more than just Goonswarm |
| 23:25.20 | OluapPlayer | BEEEEEEEEEES |
| 23:25.44 | Monet | Ten major alliances, at least three of which are the largest most pronounced groups in the game |
| 23:25.50 | Hachiman | Yeah |
| 23:25.51 | Hachiman | It's insane |
| 23:25.59 | Monet | Goon, Razor ALliance and Fidelis COnstantis. |
| 23:26.01 | Hachiman | MoneyBadger Coalition is also huge |
| 23:26.40 | Monet | WHen I was up at Fangest 2014 I had experiences with al lthree |
| 23:27.13 | DrodoEmpire | Could I have a link to this video? |
| 23:27.26 | Monet | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6aJz4n21gD8 |
| 23:27.43 | DrodoEmpire | Thanks |
| 23:28.06 | Monet | I got a business card from FC, I have a picture on my PC of me with a Razor CEO and spent one evening drinking with three Goons. |
| 23:28.47 | DrodoEmpire | Oh nice |
| 23:31.00 | Monet | So HBC contains TEST? |
| 23:31.05 | DrodoEmpire | This game is actually really cool, just the politics and war and everything |
| 23:31.06 | Monet | That explains a lot. Like...a lot |
| 23:31.07 | DrodoEmpire | Its nuts |
| 23:31.27 | Monet | Correction |
| 23:31.35 | Monet | TEST and Pandemic Legion |
| 23:31.52 | AdmiralPanda | I'm normally into political games, but that game takes it to an extreme even I'm uncomfortable being a part of- which I love to see but I just wouldn't want to be a part of |
| 23:31.53 | Hachiman | Note: MoneyBadger |
| 23:32.07 | Hachiman | As in, it is named in reference to HoneyBadger |
| 23:32.25 | Monet | Ms and Ns are very similar |
| 23:32.27 | Hachiman | It is called MoneyBadger because it is being funded by a betting corp I think |
| 23:33.05 | DrodoEmpire | Panda: I'm the same way |
| 23:33.09 | DrodoEmpire | EVE is fucking insane with it |
| 23:33.25 | DrodoEmpire | Which makes it loads of fun to watch but the stakes are *waay* too high for me to actually take part |
| 23:33.31 | Monet | EVE is real war. |
| 23:33.34 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
| 23:33.43 | DrodoEmpire | There's real stuff on the line, and its nuts |
| 23:33.48 | Monet | EVE is real Git Gud or die |
| 23:34.39 | Hachiman | One thing I found while doing some EVE research is that the most significant banking and investment scam that occurred resulted in 1tril ISK disappearing from the economic loop |
| 23:34.51 | DrodoEmpire | o.O |
| 23:34.55 | DrodoEmpire | 1 *trillion* |
| 23:35.04 | Hachiman | That is equivalent to around $45,000 |
| 23:36.10 | DrodoEmpire | So basically buddy who did this swindled enough money to buy himself a fairly nice car. |
| 23:36.17 | Hachiman | Essentially |
| 23:36.17 | DrodoEmpire | Wow. |
| 23:36.30 | Monet | THat's nothing compared to the sunk cost i nwar. |
| 23:36.52 | Hachiman | True but the scam was handled by *two* guys who ran *one* corp |
| 23:37.07 | Monet | Fair enough |
| 23:37.39 | Hachiman | Like, the costs of wars in EVE is expected to be fairly large |
| 23:38.24 | Monet | Screw enough money to buy a nice car |
| 23:38.28 | Hachiman | Also |
| 23:38.29 | DrodoEmpire | This reminds me of an idea I had for a in-fiction Drodo game that was similar to EVE, though set on a procedurally-generated "New world" with the players using 16th-18th century tech |
| 23:38.31 | Hachiman | I calculated wrong |
| 23:38.39 | Hachiman | 1tril ISK is more than $45,000 |
| 23:38.49 | Hachiman | That was the cost of a different scam |
| 23:38.52 | DrodoEmpire | I haven't written on it in a bit though I've been thinking of ways on implementing it |
| 23:38.57 | Monet | Battles like BR-5RB sink house-worth values. |
| 23:39.46 | DrodoEmpire | Either way, similar idea in that players are free to build their own nations and economies, and then beat the shit out of eachother in wars |
| 23:40.04 | Hachiman | There was a corporation called Titans4U who essentially sold false Titan blueprints to people, like a dodgy car dealership |
| 23:40.36 | Monet | Oh yeah, some corps make a killing of the titan manufacturing market. |
| 23:40.38 | Hachiman | In the end, after the CEO screwed everyone over, including his own trustees, he amassed 850bil ISK for himself |
| 23:41.07 | DrodoEmpire | Ouch. |
| 23:41.35 | Hachiman | I cannot calculate how much 1tril ISK is |
| 23:41.44 | Hachiman | Other than a fuckton |
| 23:43.01 | AdmiralPanda | I got pretty heavily into the politics of several open-world MMOs I've played in, but that was just good fun- there was never really "real" money invested |
| 23:43.11 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah |
| 23:43.35 | AdmiralPanda | especially Archeage; even if you sunk someone's ship they'd be able to repair it by the end of the week pretty much no matter what, so as long as you sunk it in a pretty humorous way people didn't really mind |
| 23:43.41 | AdmiralPanda | aside from the inconvenience of course |
| 23:44.45 | Xho_ | I still don't get EVE |
| 23:44.55 | Monet | One thing I learned. |
| 23:45.50 | Monet | A lot of EVE's players are dickholes ingame but wil lbuy you a beer if you ever meet them. |
| 23:46.03 | DrodoEmpire | Huh, nice. |
| 23:46.59 | Monet | Xho: Join a pirate corp, there's much less politics. |
| 23:47.41 | Hachiman | Or a mercenary corp |
| 23:47.58 | Hachiman | Business for mercenary corps is probably booming |
| 23:48.08 | Hachiman | Considering the Northern War is happening |
| 23:48.28 | Monet | As World War Bee plays out? Probably |
| 23:49.50 | Monet | Can't remember how receptive groups like GOonswarm are to non-alliance help |
| 23:49.56 | AdmiralPanda | where does the Bee come from? |
| 23:50.02 | AdmiralPanda | aside from a reference to WW3 |
| 23:50.09 | Monet | Goonswarm's emblam |
| 23:50.47 | Hachiman | Yeah; their insignia is a bee |
| 23:50.52 | AdmiralPanda | ah |
| 23:50.52 | Monet | http://www.blogcdn.com/massively.joystiq.com/media/2010/02/goonswarmdisbands-1.jpg |
| 23:51.30 | AdmiralPanda | the RP server I play on had an infamous incident where the "Wu Tang Killer Bees" clan decided that murdering everyone in sight was good roleplay |
| 23:51.48 | Hachiman | hur |
| 23:52.00 | AdmiralPanda | needless to say, twenty-six permabans soon followed |
| 23:56.35 | Monet | http://go-dl.eve-files.com/media/1002/evesecurity.jpg can vouch |
| 23:59.51 | Monet | No one cares what goes on in high-sec, low-sec is just anarchy and null-sec is where all the news is. |
