00:13.58 | The_Randomness | Hey Drodo |
00:23.02 | DrodoEmpire | test |
00:24.06 | DrodoEmpire | GUESS WHO IT IS |
00:24.08 | DrodoEmpire | GUESS AGAIN |
00:24.10 | DrodoEmpire | WRONG |
00:24.19 | DrodoEmpire | ITS STOMEDY |
00:24.24 | The_Randomness | wut |
00:24.27 | DrodoEmpire | dunno why i did that <.< |
00:43.02 | DrodoEmpire | HL2RP rebels in a nutshell - https://i.gyazo.com/5c7a77cf45c86ea301778227124959dd.png |
00:50.17 | The_Randomness | lol |
00:54.57 | DrodoEmpire | They have. So. Many. Guns. >.< |
00:55.19 | DrodoEmpire | I met one guy who had an LMG and a freaking *katana*. Because, you know, why not |
00:55.38 | The_Randomness | nothing beats sheer nippon steel |
00:55.44 | The_Randomness | amirite |
00:55.49 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah... :p |
00:56.37 | DrodoEmpire | This all being said being armed to the teeth doesn't stop the resistance getting their asses whooped in every major engagement I've participated in >.< |
00:56.43 | The_Randomness | lol |
00:58.18 | DrodoEmpire | I dunno how it happpens, maybe we're just that bad |
00:58.33 | DrodoEmpire | I mean I got friendly-fired in one firefight by this really careless guy with an LMG |
00:58.43 | The_Randomness | lol |
00:58.48 | DrodoEmpire | Anyway |
01:07.26 | AdmiralPanda | you think that's bad? You haven't seen SWRP |
01:07.34 | AdmiralPanda | half the pilots are utter shit, and I mean can't even clear the hangar shit |
01:07.40 | The_Randomness | lol |
01:08.13 | AdmiralPanda | I've sworn an oath never to fly unless my commander is the pilot, cos at least he can reliably fly without crashing into something, or someone for that matter |
01:08.35 | AdmiralPanda | and collision damage wrecks craft, so 2/3 flights result in everyone aboard dying |
01:10.01 | DrodoEmpire | :p |
01:10.39 | DrodoEmpire | Nah, HL2RP (well, CombineControl which is similar) is fun for the most part- definitely more RP than game though |
01:10.58 | DrodoEmpire | Its a lot like an IRC rp, but more interactive most of the time |
01:13.05 | AdmiralPanda | the two biggest problems with SWRP are that most people don't actually RP, and the ones that do overact to the point of cringe |
01:13.36 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
01:13.40 | DrodoEmpire | I've observed this yeah |
01:14.08 | DrodoEmpire | And honestly SWRP would be a *lot* better if they didn't use just use a tweaked DarkRP script |
01:14.45 | DrodoEmpire | If they slowed down music speeds, maybe changed the lighting settings, got rid of voicechat and added more chat commands (/me, /w, /y, etc.) it'd be cool |
01:15.00 | DrodoEmpire | Hell, use a tweaked Clockwork or CombineControl script :p |
01:15.08 | DrodoEmpire | *the movement speeds |
01:15.12 | DrodoEmpire | *not music speeds. >.< |
01:16.29 | DrodoEmpire | One thing I've learnt is that the boundaries of the gamemode *heavily* influence the boundaries of behavior- A good gamemode can reduce trolling and encourage a better experience |
01:21.23 | AdmiralPanda | the server I'm on has /me, /w, /y, a few others, we have two optional server music ST's but again they're optional, the problem is we have mostly incompetents training new recruits, |
01:21.37 | AdmiralPanda | and most of the officers got their positions by brown-nosing, and act like idiots |
01:21.57 | DrodoEmpire | Right, right |
01:22.09 | AdmiralPanda | that and the structure of the server is a little borked, like there's way too many regiments so they're all overblown with officer ranks |
01:22.10 | DrodoEmpire | But I think the major thing *would be* to remove voice chat altogether |
01:22.50 | AdmiralPanda | getting rid of voice chat would hurt grass-level RP in events significantly in our case |
01:23.06 | DrodoEmpire | Because of NPCs? |
01:24.00 | AdmiralPanda | we don't use NPCs, the reason getting rid of voice would hurt is there's a lot of things you don't have time to type out (and are too specific to make a bind for) that you need to get across during a firefight |
01:24.25 | DrodoEmpire | We have the same thing in HL2RP, its not a problem. :p |
01:24.32 | DrodoEmpire | I speak from experience |
01:24.35 | AdmiralPanda | a lot of people also genuinely don't look at text chat when they're fighting |
01:24.57 | DrodoEmpire | Again, its an attitude thing. I speak from experience, and with the right rules in place it isn't a problem |
01:25.09 | DrodoEmpire | Just be quick with typing |
01:25.33 | AdmiralPanda | sure, if established that way from the start, but by now this server is so heavily set in its ways we can't even push to get a 270-degree drill turn removed from basic training |
01:26.03 | DrodoEmpire | Ah. |
01:26.15 | AdmiralPanda | to be clear, I'm not trying to defend the way the server runs- I vocally express that it's shit, on the server, on a daily basis, I'm just saying it'd be near-impossible to fix at this point |
01:26.16 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah then a major script change wouldn't go through easily at all |
01:26.26 | DrodoEmpire | Right right |
01:27.17 | AdmiralPanda | like I'm acquaintances with one of the server owners, he knows I've got history running RP, so he asked me what I'd do to improve the server, my only honest answer was "start over" |
01:27.37 | DrodoEmpire | Ouch... |
01:28.24 | AdmiralPanda | there's a lot of problems, like the fact that we have over 10 active regiments means the rank structure is horribly divided, there's no standardised conditions for rank nor conduct, |
01:28.48 | AdmiralPanda | so there are more officers than there are NCOs or regimental troopers, and almost none of them even deserve Sergeant rank |
01:29.36 | DrodoEmpire | So there's a lot of organizational issues and cronyism going on. |
01:29.44 | AdmiralPanda | yup |
01:30.09 | DrodoEmpire | Reminds me of the late Qing dynasty's military. :p |
01:30.23 | DrodoEmpire | Well, with the exception of antiquated weaponry |
01:30.27 | DrodoEmpire | (I presume) |
01:30.27 | AdmiralPanda | and the event staff don't understand how group RP works, and some of them are outright selfish to the point that we once had two events that basically summed up as character development for that staffer's Jedi character |
01:30.37 | DrodoEmpire | Wow |
01:34.02 | AdmiralPanda | so yeah, not great, in short |
01:34.37 | AdmiralPanda | there's basically one unit that's really any good, ARC (which thankfully I'm a part of), to the point that basically anything actually relevant that happens has at least one ARC trooper in the heart of it, usually me |
01:35.06 | AdmiralPanda | I'm also basically the only person who knows anything about engineering RP, so I've single-handedly been responsible for saving the ship from destruction over sixteen times |
01:35.31 | AdmiralPanda | including from people who think good engineering RP is escalating minor system damage to the aforementioned ship blowing up scenario |
01:36.07 | AdmiralPanda | to the point that I, as a Lieutenant, have special authority to order *anyone* short of a Jedi out of the reactor room, without warning, notice or reason |
01:36.15 | DrodoEmpire | :p |
01:37.21 | DrodoEmpire | Well, next time I decide to go onto a CWRP server I'll be sure to frolic around in the reactor room in the off-chance you're there. XD |
01:37.33 | AdmiralPanda | if it's not Poseidon Servers, I won't be |
01:37.36 | DrodoEmpire | Just to give you a hard time <.< |
01:37.42 | AdmiralPanda | if it is, first of all that's an Australian server so enjoy the ping :P |
01:37.46 | AdmiralPanda | secondly, I'll shoot you dead |
01:37.53 | DrodoEmpire | okay captain edgy <.< |
01:38.01 | AdmiralPanda | restricted area *grins* |
01:39.09 | DrodoEmpire | Seriously though the amount of times I and others have been shot dead on those servers makes me think that the majority of casualties during the Clone Wars were from overzealous security personnel. >.< |
01:39.09 | AdmiralPanda | but yeah, the server is mostly making the best of a bad situation |
01:39.28 | AdmiralPanda | oh I only shoot people in the reactor room; if I |
01:39.43 | AdmiralPanda | I'm on third floor duty I give them fair warning first, then if they stay I shoot them |
01:39.58 | DrodoEmpire | Still though |
01:40.57 | DrodoEmpire | Its a Venator-class star destroyer- not the O.K. corral |
01:41.11 | DrodoEmpire | >.> |
01:41.11 | AdmiralPanda | and normal clones wouldn't go into restricted areas like idiots :P |
01:41.25 | DrodoEmpire | Well good thing I'm that second thing when I'm on CWRP XD |
01:41.37 | AdmiralPanda | I mean, there's a giant armoured bulkhead with glowing words saying "Restricted Area" in front of you when the elevator door opens |
01:42.02 | DrodoEmpire | A few months ago especially I'd mess around on CWRP servers just for kicks- yeah yeah I'm a horrible person I know |
01:42.33 | AdmiralPanda | well then you can't exactly blame them if you're deliberately fucking with the |
01:42.34 | AdmiralPanda | them |
01:44.36 | AdmiralPanda | but anyway, ultimately there is a lot of potential in the gametype when it's set up properly and people are normal |
01:44.41 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
01:44.52 | DrodoEmpire | There is |
01:45.33 | DrodoEmpire | It needs to borrow more from other serious RP gamemodes though if it wants to put a stop to people like me. :p |
01:46.12 | AdmiralPanda | people like you just need to either not play, or get beaten into shape in basic training |
01:46.23 | DrodoEmpire | (Most of the staff I talk to are also pretty unprofessional- Best thing you can do is just deal with a troll maturely and quickly, don't feed the flame by getting mad :p) |
01:46.25 | AdmiralPanda | you're your own fault, not a fault of the game |
01:46.41 | DrodoEmpire | Well... I' |
01:46.46 | DrodoEmpire | *I only partially agree |
01:47.05 | DrodoEmpire | And that's because things like really fast run speed and voicechat allow people to troll really easily |
01:47.29 | DrodoEmpire | Its *really* difficult to actuall troll and fuck around in HL2RP or CombineControl, because the script is different |
01:47.38 | DrodoEmpire | So few people even bother |
01:47.55 | AdmiralPanda | our default speed is walk, and voice spam is one of the fastest things that gets you dealt with by way of a swift gagging |
01:47.55 | DrodoEmpire | That's what I mean by the script's restrictions influencing the restrictions on behavior |
01:48.38 | DrodoEmpire | I don't need to spam to give someone a hard time, and b-hopping remains effective. |
01:50.03 | AdmiralPanda | funnily enough the only problem we have with people moving around is the people who suicide to get to their spawn area to travel around the map |
01:50.21 | DrodoEmpire | Again, call me a horrible person if you must, but I've played a *lot* of RP gamemodes and its just *so* easy to minge on CWRP |
01:50.28 | AdmiralPanda | like you get the occasional person who sprints everywhere because sprint |
01:50.42 | AdmiralPanda | I will call you a horrible person cos you're going into it with the intent to minge, which is just plain fucked if you ask me |
01:51.39 | AdmiralPanda | Poseidon's problems wouldn't exist if the majority of players were normal, decent people, tbh |
01:51.47 | DrodoEmpire | I've played both really serious and messed around because I felt like it. I know both sides and I've seen both sorts of people. :p |
01:52.07 | DrodoEmpire | They're both fine for the most part, and messing around is harmless- I'm not hurting anybody either way |
01:53.17 | DrodoEmpire | But if you think I'm a sociopath for it then that's your opinion |
01:53.24 | DrodoEmpire | I'll just pay you a visit one day <.< |
01:54.32 | AdmiralPanda | I never said you were a sociopath, I just legitimately do not like the idea of people going onto a serious RP server to screw around- I should point out we've got a choice of a serious RP server and a casual RP server |
01:55.10 | AdmiralPanda | anyway, I'm gonna head off |
01:55.16 | DrodoEmpire | Alright. Bye! |

12:03.24 | Monet | That horse is just...just wrong. |
12:07.34 | Liquid_Ink | Not at all good |
12:10.10 | Wormy_ | To make truly stronger people, we'd need a genes that increases muscle fibre density, increase the amino acids in the muscle, and make the arms shorter. |
12:10.58 | Wormy_ | Having just larger muscles doesn't necessarily mean stronger and comes with its own problems, on the organs and structure of the body |
12:11.03 | Monet | I like draft horses, I think they're beautiful and majestic. And that they carry their weight so. |
12:11.33 | Monet | They carry their weight well, this horse is... |
12:11.43 | Monet | Those shoulders disturb me. |
12:12.08 | Wormy_ | Chimpanzee arms aren't much bigger than humans', but the muscle itself has more of those two things than oiurs |
12:12.39 | Wormy_ | And can pull with more power than a strongman's arm by far |
12:13.16 | Wormy_ | Though I doubt chimps can do what strongmen can do in terms of lifting weights due to the structure of their body |

12:18.41 | Monet | Horses express with the body, not the face |
12:20.49 | Monet | I think its mostly because humans are wired to focus on the face. |

12:21.14 | Wormy_ | If cows get curious, just clap at them and they run off |

14:04.14 | dino82_ | hi |
14:04.17 | Wormy_ | hi |
14:11.30 | dino82_ | anything going on at the wiki? |
14:12.23 | OluapPlayer | Not really |
14:12.27 | OluapPlayer | Quite a boring day today |
14:12.33 | Monet | Updating pages |
14:13.17 | dino82_ | ah ok, easy going then :D |
14:20.40 | Monet | Feels kind of good t oget back int o editing |
14:25.11 | Monet | âHe always angers me with his foul words! He should be slain and be replaced with a more democratic leader!â - Kies on Uriel |
14:25.36 | Monet | I get Kies wants democracy but does that justify execution? |
14:26.01 | dino82_ | @monet: Nice! I have to finish updating the latest Tertius story as well, but so much work to do haha |
14:26.15 | dino82_ | Hmm, execution isn't really democratic |
14:26.45 | Monet | Technically it is if the execution was voted for by the public. |
14:26.46 | OluapPlayer | It's Kies |
14:26.47 | OluapPlayer | He runs on nonsensium |
14:26.50 | Xho | OluapPlayer: https://scontent-lhr3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/t31.0-8/13301351_1057508357659238_4355733445302397108_o.jpg |
14:27.27 | OluapPlayer | lel |
14:27.34 | Monet | Mimic - Mmm yummy adventurer. |
14:29.01 | Monet | Actually given Uriel's influence, killing him would be a *bad* idea |
14:29.13 | Monet | Like. a really horrid idea. Because then he becomes a martyr. |
14:30.04 | Xho | I think killing any head of state of any civilisation on SporeWiki is a bad idea heh |
14:30.08 | OluapPlayer | Kies doesn't have to worry anymore since Uriel exploded into stardust |
14:30.49 | Monet | Kies - Oh great, now he's breaking physics. |
14:31.56 | Xho | Just say 'magic' to a Tahar and http://www.joshuanhook.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/4a3c3e9ddb89babe1ae32689dd958171.jpg |
14:32.39 | TheMEOWKing | I guess they hate magic |
14:33.01 | Xho | They're scientists to an ironically fundamentalist degree |
14:33.02 | OluapPlayer | They hate anything that can't be explained with science |
14:33.11 | AdmiralPanda | a better way to put it is, across the spectrum of Irskaad's fiction, literally anything has someone who hates it |
14:33.13 | TheMEOWKing | Haha that's just like me |
14:33.19 | Monet | Any form of spirituality = triggered |
14:33.29 | TheMEOWKing | They want to explain everything |
14:33.33 | TheMEOWKing | And I perfectly agree |
14:33.56 | AdmiralPanda | they didn't so much want an explanation so much as "LALALA I CAN'T HEAR YOU" |
14:34.33 | Monet | If *they* couldn't prove hwat you were saying, then you were wrong |
14:34.45 | TheMEOWKing | XD |
14:35.14 | TheMEOWKing | So they're always right |
14:35.15 | Monet | Which is like a Victorian physicist scoffing at quantum mechanics and calling it BS pseudoscience. |
14:36.20 | Monet | The problem was that depite their focus o nscience, they were centuries behind the gigaquadrant's leaders |
14:36.52 | TheMEOWKing | Poor little dudes |
14:36.55 | Monet | So they probably couldn't prove Essence is a thing because they didn't have the means to accurately measure it. |
14:37.01 | AdmiralPanda | I believe at one point one accused void translation of being magic |
14:37.22 | AdmiralPanda | despite it being a very observable scientific phenomena |
14:37.51 | TheMEOWKing | Humans considered many things as magic in the past, but these things are now explained with science |
14:37.52 | OluapPlayer | Yes, then Eko's son got dream energy and grew wings |
14:38.00 | OluapPlayer | Shame Irsk left before we could see how that ended up |
14:38.34 | Wormy_ | The Tahar may have believed in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scientism |
14:39.07 | OluapPlayer | I mean we know he grows up to become the Tahar Collective Commander but I mean how he'd be seen in the current day |
14:39.48 | Xho | give it 600,000 years kek |
14:40.16 | OluapPlayer | current day u doofus |
14:42.02 | Monet | AdmiralPanda: One Tahar tried ot disprove essence being a hyperpatial phernomenon by saying that consciousness dies with the brain and thus cannot go into hyperspace. |
14:42.31 | Xho | 800 den |
14:42.32 | Xho | bastard |
14:43.40 | Xho | 799 actually, close enough |
14:44.12 | Imperios | Monet: You should totally use Kies |
14:44.42 | Monet | Imperios: Isn't he retired atm? |
14:45.01 | AdmiralPanda | retired from all potential for being taken seriously yeah :P |
14:45.21 | Monet | Was there a time he was taken seriously? |
14:45.22 | OluapPlayer | None of Irsk's fiction could ever be taken seriously |
14:46.02 | Xho | https://scontent-lhr3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/t31.0-8/13329467_1462821553783298_1309494663910153120_o.jpg mystical rainbow dog |
14:46.16 | OluapPlayer | this kills the dog |
14:47.27 | Monet | Although I have tohught once or twice: If irsk is gone, perhaps we should try finishing Tzwhatever withotu him. |
14:47.51 | OluapPlayer | It's been too long at this point |
14:48.54 | Monet | Meh, time doesn't bother me. |
14:49.31 | Monet | Lately the 'presentday' has been getting increasingly wobbly |
14:50.23 | Xho | Back to the Future IV: Tzhwhatever's Return |
14:50.28 | OluapPlayer | I mean in real life |
14:50.43 | OluapPlayer | Tzhwar was like years ago |
14:50.59 | Monet | Even more reason ot finish it surely. |
14:51.25 | Xho | I don't particularly feel like going back to ti |
14:51.26 | Xho | it |
14:51.34 | OluapPlayer | Me neither |
14:51.45 | Xho | Trying to do fiction in the Fictionverse is hard enough |
14:51.47 | OluapPlayer | It's been too long, I've stopped caring |
14:51.51 | Monet | Okay fine. |
14:52.06 | TheMEOWKing | What exactly is that essence you spoke about? |
14:52.32 | Xho | Magic, more or less |
14:52.48 | Xho | Although in reality it's some sort of interdimensional godtech |
14:52.52 | Monet | How magic it is depends on the fiction |
14:53.10 | TheMEOWKing | Is it like a soul? |
14:53.19 | OluapPlayer | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction%3AEssence |
14:53.23 | Xho | Although the level of how interdimensional and godtechy it is is indistinguishable to magic so |
14:53.26 | Xho | It's magic really |
14:53.31 | Monet | Some fiction's it's ch'i others its like DBZ stuff |
14:53.40 | Monet | Oters it classic magic |
14:54.42 | Xho | It's like a flashier version of the Force but has a little more explanation to it |
14:55.07 | Monet | A somewhat better explaination than EPI tried to give that's for sure |
14:55.19 | OluapPlayer | space microbes |
14:55.47 | Monet | Elemental Energy is like ch'i so its accessable ot everyone |
14:56.27 | Monet | One of the reasons I hated that BS space microbe idea was it's a means of elitism. |
14:57.25 | dino82_ | @Fellow Wikians: Need your advise a bit. During the latest story in Tertius Bellum there are some changes for Rambo Nation at whole (incl. the geographic lay out of the Quadrants). Now with Ramashe's loss the Le Rambo Dynasty is at peril and is greatly weakened. Do you think it would fit the Rambo to take a harsher stance against may things? Or would it not fit their "character"? |
14:58.26 | AdmiralPanda | probably |
14:58.35 | OluapPlayer | Maybe not a sudden change of personality but they could put themselves in the defensive for the sake of repairing themselves |
14:58.40 | Monet | I think beocming more guarded is fairly understandable. |
14:58.40 | AdmiralPanda | fundamentalism always rises in the wake of tragedy |
14:59.00 | dino82_ | Thanks :D |
14:59.23 | OluapPlayer | But don't go as far as start getting angry at their allies because there's no reason to do that, it's not their fault |
14:59.26 | Monet | With the Le Rambo dynasty in peril, there's reason to further protect the surviving members. |
14:59.50 | Monet | There is if their allies didn't move to help them. |
15:00.03 | AdmiralPanda | inb4 pulls Kies and calls Fordanta traitors |
15:00.08 | AdmiralPanda | that made me laugh, tbh |
15:00.21 | OluapPlayer | That's a bit harsh |
15:00.35 | OluapPlayer | It's not like they could stop the god-thing from messing the galaxies about |
15:00.42 | Xho | "lol" - Kithworto |
15:00.59 | OluapPlayer | shup ur not in this universe anymor |
15:01.05 | Xho | "lol" - Kithworto |
15:01.14 | Monet | OluapPlayer: Some fanatics can still find excuses |
15:01.30 | OluapPlayer | And that's why you shouldn't listen to fanatics |
15:01.31 | dino82_ | @no the Le Rambo will not be hostile against their allies, an assasination attempt cannot be blamed upon allied forces, only against those who did it. But as Rambarth is always a bit defensive, then I know it would fit them for now |
15:01.43 | dino82_ | no worries, when called upon he will honor hte treaties ofcourse :D |
15:01.51 | OluapPlayer | That's like blaming the PCA for the wars on Andromeda |
15:02.17 | OluapPlayer | That being said the Indoc Collective would be willing to help if the Rambo want it |
15:02.39 | Monet | Have you seen some responses to refugees in Europe? |
15:03.02 | Monet | Some people are jsut dicks. And will sue a percieved fear to twist minds. |
15:03.03 | OluapPlayer | I don't keep up to politics |
15:03.17 | Monet | use a percieved* |
15:03.36 | dino82_ | @monet: the refugee "crisis" splits the European Union |
15:04.00 | Monet | Yeah. |
15:04.09 | dino82_ | tehy can't agree on aything at the moment, first the Greek Financial crisis, now the Refugee and the impending Brexit, I think the future of the Union might be a bit on stake |
15:04.23 | Xho | Ramashe's coma sends her to Insomnia where she has tea with a cross-dressing Santorakh and a forcibly cross-dressed Dhazhrak |
15:04.34 | OluapPlayer | Dhazhrak - >forcibly |
15:04.59 | Xho | Santorakh - trust me dear the outfit is astounding |
15:04.59 | dino82_ | @Xho: haha now those are nightmares for sure :P |
15:05.12 | Monet | Over in the UK you have UKIP who think that we can stop 'dem immigrints coming ot our shores' by leaving the EU and closing borders. |
15:05.24 | Xho | Or perhaps a forcibly cross dressed Volim |
15:05.27 | Hachiman | People who want to leave the EU are fucking retarded lmao |
15:05.39 | Xho | Then again Volim can't really do much to resist it on the account of no limbs |
15:05.41 | OluapPlayer | sez u retard shup |
15:05.45 | Hachiman | Leave your patriotism with the British Empire please lol |
15:05.45 | Monet | Panic causes problems and screws up rational judgement. |
15:05.54 | AdmiralPanda | need cyberpunk CEU |
15:06.05 | Xho | AdmiralPanda: I never asked for this |
15:06.35 | AdmiralPanda | Xho: What I mean is, Europe, Japan and America forming an economic union standardising global currencies |
15:06.41 | Hachiman | People who want to leave the EU also advocate for restoring the British Empire and forcibly reclaiming India and enslaving Africa |
15:06.42 | Xho | y u no get reference |
15:06.48 | AdmiralPanda | I got the reference |
15:06.51 | Xho | terrible den |
15:06.51 | AdmiralPanda | it was a dum reference |
15:06.54 | Xho | u dum |
15:07.09 | AdmiralPanda | me no stoopid, u da stoopid |
15:07.13 | AdmiralPanda | I'll stop now |
15:07.16 | Monet | Hachiman: Not all of them but yes I've heard of the 'Empire 2.0' desire. |
15:07.27 | AdmiralPanda | that cost me like half my sanity for the night and I'm still playing DkS for a few hours |
15:07.31 | Xho | If it means a standardised global currency system then perhaps my Japanese imports would be easier |
15:07.50 | Hachiman | >Japanese imports |
15:07.58 | Xho | music gear u dunec |
15:08.00 | Xho | dunce |
15:08.01 | Hachiman | its hentai and dakimakura |
15:08.02 | Xho | is now a dunce |
15:08.09 | dino82_ | But still, a fracture of the Union is not good for the global economy as well, it endagers the Euro coin, and might split the EU in a "western" and an "eastern/southern" Union, so we have the imaginative wall back |
15:08.12 | Monet | U ninjad me with the hentai |
15:08.15 | Xho | musical hentai gear Santorakh Akbar |
15:08.21 | dino82_ | hope the British stay, it makes travelling to there so easy now :D |
15:08.24 | Monet | I was about to go "Japan - Hentai for everyone!" |
15:08.26 | Hachiman | Santorakhbar |
15:08.30 | dino82_ | amongst other reasons :D |
15:08.39 | Xho | Santorakh - 10.0/10 have some cheese |
15:08.54 | Xho | Do I dare search 'dakimakura' on the web |
15:09.09 | Hachiman | Yes |
15:09.14 | AdmiralPanda | isn't htat just hte japanese word for body pillow? |
15:09.15 | Xho | Oh wait waifu pillows |
15:09.31 | Xho | 5/10 only half-cringed |
15:09.35 | Xho | I was expecting worse |
15:09.50 | Xho | Still dreadful though |
15:09.57 | Hachiman | Xho: https://scontent-cdg2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-0/p235x350/13233135_1722784197970058_2180342551834609205_n.jpg?oh=2d64b3f8c99db7972703caa4810223ab&oe=57D0F3AB How about full cringe |
15:10.03 | Xho | I saw that |
15:10.07 | Xho | I'm still struggling to work it out |
15:14.27 | Monet | Although the Eurozone crisis has laready doen a number on the Euro. |
15:16.19 | Hachiman | Honestly, leaving the EU would just give our government more of an excuse to fuck over its public |
15:16.32 | Hachiman | Not restore it to greatness like anti-EU groups believe |
15:18.15 | Xho | So Russia is apparently developing military androids |
15:18.19 | Xho | the end is near |
15:18.37 | Hachiman | Cykabots |
15:18.55 | OluapPlayer | Blyatron 9000 |
15:19.02 | Monet | Xho: ALso its threatening missie strikes if Poand and Ukrain position their missile shield 'too close' to Russian borders. |
15:22.09 | Hachiman | I wonder |
15:22.17 | Hachiman | What exactly are the Elder Scrolls? |
15:22.38 | Monet | Basically they predict the future |
15:23.12 | Monet | What is said on them is in flux until (and osmeone remind me which it is) what they say happens or whe nyou read it. |
15:23.31 | Monet | But once you read an elder scroll, you go blind, only able to see what's on the scrolls. |
15:24.21 | Wormy_ | So they are like the Akashic records? |
15:25.31 | Monet | Possibly |
15:28.51 | Monet | Though iirc you go blind because of some innate magic within the script. |
15:29.38 | Monet | A bit like the literary version of how hearing Cthulhu's voice drives you insane |

15:30.06 | DrodoEmpire | Hi everyone |
15:30.36 | Monet | hi |
15:30.49 | AdmiralPanda | Hachiman: they're basically time magic in physical form |
15:32.05 | Monet | The ELder Scrolls prophesised the return of Alduin |
15:33.03 | Monet | And each game in the series contains an event the scrolls predicted to be one of five catalysts that would ehrald Alduin's return. |
15:33.19 | Monet | herald* |
15:35.22 | Monet | And like the Oracle of Delphi they precicted what woudl happen, but would say nothing about when, where and how. |
15:35.56 | AdmiralPanda | the scrolls predicted a lot of things tbh |
15:36.14 | OluapPlayer | Time to make Ref'kolar's Null State |
15:36.17 | OluapPlayer | This should be interesting |
15:36.19 | Hachiman | aw yis |
15:36.40 | Hachiman | Also, Santa Claus apparently punched a man in the face at the Council of Nicaea |
15:36.50 | Hachiman | Over a dispute about the nature of Jesus and God and their relationship |
15:37.06 | DrodoEmpire | savage santa |
15:37.12 | OluapPlayer | #rud |
15:37.12 | OluapPlayer | e |
15:41.56 | Monet | I get the feeling punching your fellow councilmen was a bit more common in ancient rome |
15:42.14 | Monet | Nor rome sorry |
15:42.43 | DrodoEmpire | I think ancient governments were a bit more rowdy in general. >.< |
15:42.46 | Monet | Actually nvm, yes Ancient ROme |
15:42.59 | DrodoEmpire | Though, I hear about crazy stuff in a lot of modern parliaments too |
15:44.23 | Monet | Punchouts are a rarity |
15:44.56 | Hachiman | Things do get quite personal in parliament though |
15:45.01 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah they are, but there's lots of jeering, yelling, and near-punchouts :p |
15:45.12 | DrodoEmpire | From what i hear |
15:45.53 | Tek0516 | DrodoEmpire: #elbowgate:P |
15:46.11 | DrodoEmpire | hur |
15:46.36 | Monet | Yeah modern parliaments are rowdy |
15:46.51 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah, Canada's so boring a tiny little elbow by the PM turns into a national controversy :p |
15:46.51 | Monet | And there's lots of name-caliing |
15:47.04 | DrodoEmpire | We're *just that bored* |
15:47.45 | Monet | But at least Western politicans don't conspire to assasinate each other. |
15:48.05 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah |
15:48.35 | DrodoEmpire | Though, they don't assassinate eachother probably because they're all too incompetent to pull it off :p |

16:19.42 | Hachiman | It's very likely he could have gotten blood on his shirt while working with them |
16:20.15 | Hachiman | At this point, I'm not even sure whether that blood is his own or not |
16:21.48 | Wormy_ | As someone who is vegetarian, that sandwich looks crap even to me. The bead was soggy, and the spinach or whatever it was, was wilted. |
16:22.52 | Wormy_ | Though qourn which I don't think you can get in the US, is so meat-like now the meat eaters often eat it. Its really annoying when meat eaters eat all the vegetarian options. |
16:23.39 | Xho | Quorn's alright |
16:23.49 | Xho | Can't beat a bit of TASTY TASTY MURDER |
16:23.57 | Wormy_ | I think Quorn has egg in it, so vegans won'ttouch it |
16:24.23 | Xho | If steak didn't exist I'd probably opt in for vegetarianism but, well steak |

17:08.42 | Ghelaway | TheMEOWKing: They're not exactly the same, no. |
17:10.28 | Ghelaway | In the SporeWikiverse, they're roughly based on the same underlying (and not very well-defined) physics, primarily because we need an excuse for FTL travel to be easy but time travel to not be. |
17:12.58 | *** join/#sporewiki TheMEOWKing (56c2c183@gateway/web/freenode/ip.86.194.193.131) |
17:13.25 | TheMEOWKing | I was wondering |
17:13.28 | Ghelaway | TheMEOWKing: To answer your question on warp drive and hyperspace: they're not exactly the same, no. |
17:13.30 | Ghelaway | In the SporeWikiverse, they're roughly based on the same underlying (and not very well-defined) physics, primarily because we need an excuse for FTL travel to be easy but time travel to not be. |
17:14.10 | TheMEOWKing | Okay. I guess warp drives are "easier" but slower and hyperspace is "harder" but faster |
17:14.16 | Ghelaway | Yeah. |
17:14.38 | TheMEOWKing | So, I was wondering if empires can actually go up tiers as time goes |
17:15.08 | Ghelaway | Yes. Usually when they trade and interact with each other, scientific and technical knowledge will spread between them too. |
17:15.19 | TheMEOWKing | That's great |
17:18.13 | TheMEOWKing | Do we know during which exact year the fiction universe takes place? |
17:18.41 | Xho | It's hovering around 2811 |
17:18.53 | Xho | 2811 - 2816 at the moment |
17:18.58 | TheMEOWKing | Does it goes up as time goes? |
17:19.05 | Xho | Yes |
17:19.12 | TheMEOWKing | When the wiki was founded |
17:19.16 | Xho | OluapPlayer_ Hachiman: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Captain:Dragon-Elf bork |
17:19.22 | TheMEOWKing | What year was the fiction universe set in? |
17:19.24 | OluapPlayer_ | dats not a dog |
17:19.27 | Xho | Well, the Fictionverse was founded around 2009 |
17:19.46 | Xho | There were bits before it as well |
17:19.51 | Xho | But main stories around 2009 |
17:20.08 | Xho | In-universe, year wise the first main stories began in the 2750s |
17:20.20 | TheMEOWKing | Okay |
17:20.25 | TheMEOWKing | Things are going fast |
17:21.11 | Xho | It's not a constant flow |
17:21.21 | Xho | If it was a constant flow, it would still be around 2780 - 2790 |
17:21.30 | TheMEOWKing | Oh, okay |
17:21.35 | TheMEOWKing | So it can "skip time" |
17:21.40 | Xho | More or less |
17:21.55 | Xho | There was a steadly chronology not too long ago but now it's halted around 2811 |
17:22.18 | TheMEOWKing | Compared to 2009, how active is the fictionverse? |
17:22.35 | Xho | More than 2009 |
17:22.43 | TheMEOWKing | When was the peak of activity? |
17:22.50 | Xho | 2013 - 2014 I'd say |
17:22.57 | Xho | 2016's been quiet |
17:22.58 | TheMEOWKing | Are we declining? |
17:22.59 | Xho | Yes |
17:23.00 | Cyrannian | I'd say 2010 and 2011 |
17:23.14 | TheMEOWKing | I hope it's not gonna die |
17:23.28 | Xho | I dunno whether it's me being not very observant but the Fantasyverse is more active than the Fictionverse |
17:23.39 | Ghelaway | Activity fluctuates. I don't think there's any risk of it dying soon. |
17:23.39 | Xho | At least from what I see |
17:23.49 | TheMEOWKing | Phew |
17:24.04 | Xho | There's more users on the IRC now than there were users in 2009 |
17:24.09 | Xho | Let's put it that way |
17:24.19 | TheMEOWKing | :o |
17:24.21 | TheMEOWKing | XD |
17:25.36 | OluapPlayer_ | Xho: gud work spu |
17:25.48 | Xho | I'm not sure how many Fictionverse 'original' users are still here |
17:25.52 | Xho | tnx |
17:26.12 | TheMEOWKing | Wait |
17:26.19 | TheMEOWKing | Is there also wormhole travel? |
17:26.23 | Xho | Yes |
17:26.37 | TheMEOWKing | I guess it's VERY VERY hard to achieve |
17:26.41 | Xho | It's kind of necessary to branch the scale of the First Gigaquadrant |
17:26.53 | Xho | I dunno it seems quite run of the mill tech to me |
17:26.59 | Xho | Then again my run of the mill tech starts at Tier 1 so |
17:27.03 | TheMEOWKing | Without it you're stuck to a galactic cluser I guess |
17:27.04 | The_Randomness | >_> |
17:27.08 | Ghelaway | Wormholes as static structures are fairly common. |
17:27.12 | TheMEOWKing | cluster* |
17:27.20 | TheMEOWKing | Yeah but who know where they lead! |
17:27.26 | Ghelaway | Starships that can produce their own temporary wormholes are less common. |
17:27.28 | Xho | The_Randomness: get on my level tier 4 scrublord |
17:27.47 | OluapPlayer_ | but 4 is a higher number than 1 |
17:27.49 | OluapPlayer_ | checkmate atheists |
17:27.54 | The_Randomness | bites his tongue |
17:27.56 | TheMEOWKing | Soon the slukatian shall be Tier 1! Okay maybe not XD |
17:28.05 | The_Randomness | yeah, no |
17:28.07 | The_Randomness | Don't do that |
17:28.09 | Xho | was outdone |
17:28.11 | TheMEOWKing | XD |
17:28.14 | Ghelaway | Actually, the starships themselves probably vastly outnumber the permanent wormholes. But the number of civilisations that *use* permanent wormholes is large. |
17:28.17 | TheMEOWKing | I'm not sure they even want to be Tier 1 |
17:28.41 | Xho | The Fictionverse doesn't present any more stuff for me to do now so I'm 100% Fantasyverse nowadays |
17:29.59 | Xho | I ran all of my stuff into the ground and I'm too lazy to dig it up |
17:30.14 | Cyrannian | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Captain:Selanius - c finished paeg |
17:30.31 | TheMEOWKing | I wonder if there is an empire even more light-hearted than mine, the Slukatians |
17:30.41 | Xho | Besides I've never been too interested in the futuristic element of the Fantasyverse aside from the aesthetics |
17:31.06 | OluapPlayer_ | gud work waptor |
17:31.13 | Cyrannian | quote dis |
17:31.17 | Ghelaway | "The pull of the Neraida is the pull of a black hole" - stable orbits around black holes, not falling in for billions of years, are actually pretty easy. :P |
17:31.20 | OluapPlayer_ | "dum" -Khuenaten |
17:31.43 | Cyrannian | Obviously he was referring to magical black holes, Ghel |
17:32.25 | Ghelaway | Ah, of course. |
17:32.37 | TheMEOWKing | Which galaxy is the most populated? The Milky Way? |
17:32.46 | OluapPlayer_ | âI wish to radically dislocate your limbs.â |
17:32.51 | OluapPlayer_ | Thaurlathron - #rude |
17:32.59 | Ghelaway | Milky Way and Mirus have the most users, I think. |
17:34.07 | Ghelaway | Actual number of populated planets? I'm not sure. |
17:34.45 | Ghelaway | The Milky Way got hit pretty hard in the Tigris War. Or, at least, it's supposed to have been. |
17:35.08 | OluapPlayer_ | It did but only if it wants to |
17:36.51 | Xho | Angazhar - suck it, winter garden |
17:38.51 | Ghelaway | The Cyrannus Galaxy page seems to imply that a minimum of 30 million planets are inhabited (from the "Species and Races" section), but with a possible total of 23% of "several trillion" (number of stars in infobox). |
17:39.18 | Ghelaway | For all of its wars, I imagine Cyrannus is actually the most populous. |
17:40.55 | OluapPlayer_ | It definitely wins in number of recorded species |
17:42.34 | Xho | Tigris definitely doesn't #oooooooooh |
17:45.07 | Cyrannian | And it's all because of my caffeine addiction |
17:45.21 | Cyrannian | I think Dino probably has the most characters though |
17:45.40 | Cyrannian | Certainly more than me |
17:45.52 | OluapPlayer_ | I remember counting once and I have over a hundred characters |
17:46.06 | OluapPlayer_ | Including minor pageless stuff that is |
17:46.15 | Xho | 2much4myattentionspan |
17:46.28 | OluapPlayer_ | step the fuck up senpai |
17:48.29 | Cyrannian | There are 119 characters on my navbox with pages, though a couple of those are either owned or shared by other users |
17:48.48 | Xho | cba to count |
17:49.42 | Xho | I have 50 - 60 Fantasyverse characters |
17:49.56 | Cyrannian | OluapPlayer_: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Zegoroa - Look what I found |
17:50.16 | OluapPlayer_ | Wow |
17:50.24 | OluapPlayer_ | That's old school stuff right tehre |
17:50.29 | OluapPlayer_ | I didn't remember it anymore |

17:56.37 | OluapPlayer_ | I was somewhat scared when I found out they have a whole Steam group |
17:56.51 | Xho | Funnily enough I joined it and was instantly promoted to admin |

17:59.50 | Xho | Well looking on Steam there's at least nine users naming themselves after Nightmare Medic |
17:59.54 | Xho | fans everywhere |
18:00.06 | OluapPlayer_ | nine niins |
18:00.08 | OluapPlayer_ | niin niins |
18:00.12 | Xho | nine inch niins |
18:01.13 | Xho | All the other admins in that group that I met over TF2 seem to be all courteous enough |
18:01.29 | Xho | Although I appear to be the oldest user by a rather hefty margin |
18:02.29 | OluapPlayer_ | Unsurprising |
18:04.37 | Xho | Another thing is that I'm also treated like some sort of deity for creating Nightmare Medic |

21:02.48 | Monet | We were assaulting an aircraft carrier |
21:03.32 | Monet | All this woman would have had is a pistol. |

21:05.34 | Hachiman | Jesus |

21:06.22 | Monet | Raid US Military property, everyone steals jets, takes on the USAF and flies home to the tune of Danger Zone. |

21:07.40 | Xho | Immediately thought of Archer |
21:08.17 | Hachiman | kek |
21:08.57 | Xho | I've got this weird thing about multiplayer games |
21:09.09 | Xho | I refuse to play them without having a friend to play it with |
21:09.14 | Xho | I can't go on multiplayer games by myself |
21:09.35 | Xho | I dunno how I can get anxiety playing a multiplayer game which is fucking stupid |
21:09.49 | OluapPlayer_ | I get that too |
21:09.58 | OluapPlayer_ | Games just aren't as fun with strangers |
21:10.41 | Xho | Perhaps if I was a god-tier gamer messing up scrubs it would be a different story |
21:11.01 | OluapPlayer_ | then you'd be a friendless tryhard hur |
21:11.44 | Xho | but i'd be better dan everyone |
21:11.48 | Xho | dat bein easy not tryhard |
21:12.05 | Xho | I am a tryhard though considering I suck at most multiplayer games |
21:12.10 | Xho | Except Halo |
21:12.29 | Xho | Team Fortress 2 is one game I've never been good at nor will I ever be good at |
21:12.35 | Xho | PC controls aren't natural to me |
21:13.03 | OluapPlayer_ | I've never been good in any multiplayer games i've played. I play for fun's sake, not skill |
21:13.19 | Xho | It's not fun if you're not skilled at it though |
21:13.25 | Xho | At least in my experience |
21:13.34 | Xho | I'm good at MvM however |
21:13.36 | Hachiman | lmao playing games for fun what a fagit fun is for people who arent good at games lol |
21:13.39 | Xho | best medic 2015 |
21:13.46 | OluapPlayer_ | There's skill and there's competence |
21:13.50 | Xho | Right |
21:13.54 | OluapPlayer_ | I'm a competent player, but I'm not skilled |
21:13.55 | Xho | Well I'm very incompetent at TF2 |
21:14.06 | Xho | Way too much stuff going on |
21:14.32 | OluapPlayer_ | I finished the whole Dark Souls trilogy, but if I fight other players I'll get kicked about 90% of the time |
21:15.01 | Xho | I can do Freak Fortress well enough |
21:15.14 | Xho | But that's on the basis that you're a character with 10,000 HP and seriously high damage |
21:15.37 | OluapPlayer_ | My experience with boss mode TF2 is getting stuck in a corner via sentry knockback |

21:21.22 | Xho | I was a console gamer before a PC gamer so I'll probably never properly acclimatise to PC controls |
21:21.23 | Imperios | Well I probably am not |
21:21.30 | Xho | Monet: Pretty sure I have it |
21:21.35 | Imperios | I am just looking for fellow master race ppl plz |

21:22.15 | OluapPlayer_ | I exclusively play on PC, but it's partially because I can't afford consoles |

21:39.37 | AdmiralPanda | could be worse |
21:40.24 | Hachiman | True |
21:42.10 | OluapPlayer_ | Having a rat encouraged to borrow into your chest by Hodor |
21:42.11 | OluapPlayer_ | hodor |
21:42.25 | AdmiralPanda | I can't actually remember who dies that way |
21:42.36 | Xho | Torture victims |
21:42.45 | Xho | The torturers being led by the Mountain |
21:43.17 | Hachiman | Yeah |
21:43.24 | AdmiralPanda | that would be why, side characters |
21:43.32 | Xho | OluapPlayer: I thought it would be Joffrey |
21:44.01 | Hachiman | They put a rat in a bucket, held it against your chest, and then heated the bottom of the bucket so the rat has to eat into your chest so as to not get burned |
21:44.07 | Hachiman | Or at least, that is what I recall |
21:44.14 | Xho | Having a rat encouraged to burrow into your chest by Joffrey Baratheon makes a lot of sense |
21:44.29 | OluapPlayer_ | My last name starts with S |
21:44.31 | OluapPlayer_ | So Hodor |
21:44.40 | Xho | my entire life has been a lie |
21:44.40 | Hachiman | hodor |
21:44.52 | Xho | HOLD THE DOOR |
21:45.06 | AdmiralPanda | DEVIANT HERETICAL PANDERING TO THE MASSES |
21:45.10 | AdmiralPanda | oh wait we said the same thing |
21:45.21 | Hachiman | Actually |
21:45.21 | OluapPlayer_ | heretical |
21:45.23 | OluapPlayer_ | is dis 40k |
21:45.31 | Xho | HOLD THE DOOR |
21:45.33 | Hachiman | GRRM worked on that with the producers |
21:45.39 | OluapPlayer_ | get on the floor |
21:45.40 | Hachiman | It was his idea |
21:45.42 | OluapPlayer_ | everybody walk the dinosaur |
21:45.56 | AdmiralPanda | the whole "hold the door" thing came about because fans came up with a theory for Hodor's name, based on the fact that the actor has a scar |
21:46.05 | Xho | "Let me show you the dance of my people" - Cyrannian, 2016 |
21:46.13 | AdmiralPanda | now the scene in the movie does not directly correlate to the theory, but that's how it came about |
21:46.46 | AdmiralPanda | furthermore, Hodor does not have a scar in the books, so the whole thing is heresy born from a makeup choice to cover up a tattoo :P |
21:47.02 | Xho | As if the books have any relation to the TV series as of Season 5 |
21:47.07 | Hachiman | I think it's already been confirmed though that GoT was deviating from the book |
21:47.08 | Hachiman | books |
21:47.17 | Xho | Season 6 well |
21:47.19 | Hachiman | Like, intentionally |
21:47.22 | Xho | Season 6 is Season 6 |
21:47.29 | OluapPlayer_ | Unless that chart doesn't include surnames |
21:47.36 | OluapPlayer_ | In that case it'd be this Joffrey fellow |
21:47.42 | AdmiralPanda | oh the TV series is very much deviating |
21:48.01 | AdmiralPanda | which I don't mind, it just concerns me that it may deviate from the intent of the series, which would be ULTIMATE HERESY |
21:48.13 | Xho | OluapPlayer_: Joffrey would fit a lot better considering he's the epitome of a sadistic psychopath |
21:48.21 | Hachiman | And a whiny cunt |
21:48.23 | OluapPlayer_ | hodor |
21:48.32 | AdmiralPanda | Joffrey isn't really sadistic, he's just a psychopathic, entitled twat |
21:48.44 | Xho | Well he disembowels a cat in the books |
21:48.47 | Hachiman | Joffrey is like the Draco Malfoy of GoT |
21:49.07 | Hachiman | It's funny because they're both stuck-up shitty whiny nobles |
21:49.10 | Xho | Ramsay Bolton is an actual sadistic psychopath |
21:49.14 | AdmiralPanda | Hachiman: at least Draco is sympathetic |
21:49.20 | Hachiman | Is he? |
21:49.44 | AdmiralPanda | his whole attitude arises from his family basically, when it comes down to it he's in way over his head and he knows it |
21:49.56 | ImpyDroid | Hi |
21:49.56 | AdmiralPanda | at least in the later few books |
21:50.13 | ImpyDroid | Xho: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/8/85/Coat_National_Bolshevik_Party.svg/250px-Coat_National_Bolshevik_Party.svg.png This is officially the best emblem ever |
21:50.26 | Hachiman | As far as I know, he doesn't even show his confidence and just finds a way to coward out of the war instead of helping the protagonists |
21:50.29 | Xho | What in the world |
21:50.47 | AdmiralPanda | prettymuch |
21:50.52 | Hachiman | I mean I get that he was in over his head and he wanted a way out, but he's still not exactly redeemed of being a fuckwad |
21:51.16 | AdmiralPanda | oh he's not redeemed, but what I said is you can sympathise with the guy- ain't doin that with Joffrey |
21:52.08 | Xho | "He openly enjoys abusive practices such as having young women stripped naked and released into the Bolton forests, before hunting them with a pack of feral dogs. He gives a quick death to women who give him good sport (after raping them first), then flays their corpses." |
21:52.12 | Xho | Ramsay isn't nice |
21:52.31 | Hachiman | Flaying is not exactly a practice exclusive to Ramsay though |
21:52.38 | Hachiman | The Boltons in general are sadistic fuckers |
21:52.47 | Xho | Ramsay is a cut above the rest though |
21:52.59 | Hachiman | Quite literally actually |
21:53.06 | Xho | doi |
21:54.42 | OluapPlayer_ | Anyway we were on about Irsk earlier so I remade his pigs http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/spore/images/a/a5/Iowroi_Ast%27ut.png/revision/latest?cb=20160529215417 |
21:55.01 | AdmiralPanda | given that the Boltons literally have a flayed dude as their heraldic icon, yeah, they're nuts |
21:55.14 | AdmiralPanda | I like to think once upon a time their banners were actual flayed men |
21:55.17 | Xho | snortlesnortle |
21:55.20 | Hachiman | pug |
21:55.45 | Xho | The fact their seat of power is called the Dreadfort |
21:56.20 | ImpyDroid | are you talking about Got? |
21:56.50 | Hachiman | Yeah |
21:57.01 | ImpyDroid | OluapPlayer: Oink for the Oink God |
21:57.52 | Hachiman | Also, apparently people in the UK are furious after watching an act on a national television talent show performing an actual life-threatening stunt with a safety wire |
21:58.39 | Hachiman | As in, would have certainly died if he fucked up and didn't have one |
22:00.27 | Hachiman | Act involved the guy sliding down a pole towards an active chainsaw with his hands tied behind his back and using only his feet as a means of support |
22:00.52 | OluapPlayer_ | That does sound incredibly stupid |
22:00.58 | Monet | X factor really went downhill. |
22:01.38 | Hachiman | Britain's Got Talent, not X Factor hur |
22:02.04 | Hachiman | X Factor is still shit though |
22:02.10 | Hachiman | So is BGT now that I think about it |
22:02.53 | Xho | British TV is just generally shit |
22:03.17 | Hachiman | Peaky Blinders is supposed to be good |
22:03.33 | Hachiman | Period British gangster stuff |
22:04.26 | Hachiman | https://scontent-cdg2-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/13327477_1583772761652171_6241118997648976939_n.jpg?oh=b78537aefa43504b0d58e4c5831b053b&oe=580EE5EF |
22:05.17 | Xho | That is a good show |
22:05.23 | AdmiralPanda | that's not a picture of a rubbish bin though |
22:05.36 | Xho | I watched most of Season 2 |
22:05.42 | Xho | Or Series 2 |
22:05.44 | Xho | I dunno |
22:05.54 | Hachiman | It's Series 2 because brit |
22:05.59 | Hachiman | Season is for Americunts |

23:20.18 | Wormy_ | http://curi.us/1856-dancing-sucks |
23:23.17 | DrodoEmpire | ? |
23:23.45 | DrodoEmpire | Right, dancing is a cultural thing, and culture and values should be taught in school. Plus, its good exercise :p |
23:25.16 | The_Randomness | "I like Ayn Rand" - WutFace |
23:25.54 | Wormy_ | Some elements of the thread is agreeable. I.e. dace is seen as free and creative, yet it is instructed and stagnated by strict cultural and perhaps biologicall values. |
23:26.53 | Wormy_ | However, that it makes good exercise and good coordination, and indeed is fun even if its mostly useless, cannot be addressed bythat argument. |
23:27.22 | DrodoEmpire | Dance *isn't* always free-flowing, though. Some dances are strict and have strict standards, and that's fine because standards and discipline is important. :p |
23:27.28 | Wormy_ | <PROTECTED> |
23:27.38 | DrodoEmpire | And its not mostly useless unless you think culture is mostly useless |
23:27.42 | DrodoEmpire | And that's an absurd position |
23:27.47 | The_Randomness | yeah |
23:27.51 | The_Randomness | I'm with Drodo here |
23:28.52 | Wormy_ | I believe no cultural standards should be beyond criticism, and there is far too much strict "teacher is right" phenomenon in modern education. |
23:29.38 | DrodoEmpire | You're right, they *aren't* beyond criticism, but that's a long way from saying that dance, as an activity, is useless |
23:29.53 | Wormy_ | Maybe some of its current forms are. |
23:30.02 | DrodoEmpire | Why? Who're you to say? |
23:30.04 | Wormy_ | And enforced by these strict values |
23:30.07 | Wormy_ | Just sayin |
23:30.18 | DrodoEmpire | I don't like all cultures, but I'm not going to criticise the concept of culture for it |
23:30.49 | Wormy_ | I'm merely open to the question and perspective offered by the thread. Though I don't agree with most of its content. |
23:30.55 | DrodoEmpire | Right |
23:30.58 | The_Randomness | Right |
23:31.03 | Hachiman | Right |
23:31.07 | The_Randomness | Left |

23:33.06 | Xho | Well someone had to do it |
23:33.43 | DrodoEmpire | >: |
23:33.49 | The_Randomness | edgy |
23:33.51 | The_Randomness | ? |
23:33.54 | Wormy_ | To put it in perspective, sometimes when there is music playing in the pub and I've lost my inhibitions to alcohol, I might get up and make dance movements. It is probably entirely culture that influences me to make that choice. Am I acting like a rational human being when I find myself become victim to memetic rythems? |
23:33.56 | Xho | u kno it snoflake |
23:34.38 | Wormy_ | Then again, maybe that's just overthinking things. |
23:35.11 | DrodoEmpire | I think you are :p |
23:36.25 | DrodoEmpire | Culture isn't some awful prison, its an experience and a set of values. Like it or not, culture is what made you who you are and is a part of you- you did not fall victim to it. |
23:37.37 | DrodoEmpire | And, like a cliched antagonist from a horror film, there's no escaping it :p |
23:37.48 | Wormy_ | I agree, but we can make choices that select for memes that are highly positive to the human experience, particularly those open to the acquisition and communication of knowledge. |
23:38.14 | Wormy_ | There are different species of meme that have different effects on culture |
23:38.22 | Wormy_ | Some are dynamic and others more static |
23:38.29 | DrodoEmpire | fresh and spicy, but moving on |
23:38.41 | DrodoEmpire | as well as dank <.< |
23:39.19 | Wormy_ | The scientific method is a dynamic part of society where memes are selected for being both open to new knowledge, as well as criticism. |
23:39.29 | Wormy_ | For example |
23:39.29 | DrodoEmpire | In all seriousness, this isn't so much of an argument anymore as I don't disagree |
23:39.44 | DrodoEmpire | I understand memetics and how it relates to culture |
23:41.08 | Wormy_ | I'm inclined to believe there is probably a more open ended solution to dance. But maybe dance as we see in pop music, drunken silliness, and the dance taught in school is not. I can't say this for certain as at this point, I don't know whether thats true. |
23:41.18 | Wormy_ | But pop music sure looks and sounds the same :P |
23:42.11 | Wormy_ | Open ended solution to dance rather than declaring it all useless |
23:42.29 | DrodoEmpire | Right, well then there's the radical theory that dance isn;t itself a problem, and its done for entertainment and maintenance of culture |
23:42.32 | DrodoEmpire | <.< |
23:42.50 | DrodoEmpire | Its done for one or both reasons |
23:43.19 | Monet | Pop music tends to be made for different reasons than more traditional msic forms |
23:43.39 | DrodoEmpire | ^ that too |
23:43.45 | Wormy_ | Well yeah, pop music sells and it doesn't that matter that it isn't actually that good |
23:44.50 | Wormy_ | it entertains without having to extend energy into thinking about it, etc. |
