00:00.08 | Tybusen | Fist-fighter could work though |
00:02.09 | Tybusen | This character is supposed to be in the First Bunsen War-era TIAF though |
00:03.39 | Hachiman | Right |
00:05.01 | Tybusen | Specifically part of the MSF (so same group as Lorrelas and the like) |
00:06.10 | Hachiman | Could make them quiet, speaks few words and only speaks when necessary or when they thought of a one-liner they thought was cool, kind of OCD and acts aloof to try and look cool |
00:06.48 | Hachiman | Prefers to solve problems the easy, good old-fashioned way rather than acting methodical and is a bit impulsive |
00:08.52 | Tybusen | I could go the "strong, silent" route but that would make both of the female characters of the FBW-era MSF relatively quiet types |
00:09.26 | Tybusen | Since Misael Tanyan is a serious, straightforward, "stern mom" sort of character |
00:10.07 | Hachiman | If they're the "stern mom" character, other girl could be some kind of "rebellious teen" character in that relationship |
00:10.20 | Tybusen | That could be a good idea |
00:10.55 | Tybusen | (Even though all of the MSF characters are at least 300 years old) |
00:11.29 | Tybusen | It would let her be an impulsive, physical type |
00:11.44 | Hachiman | Aye |
00:12.54 | Tybusen | Also contrasts well with Samenor since I was planning there to be some amount of romantic interest between the two |
00:15.24 | Tybusen | My only concern is that it might be too similar to Natalie Grey's character, but with what I'm planning for this character that could actually be a good thing |
00:16.58 | Hachiman | Oh? |
00:18.44 | Tybusen | What I'm planning is FBW spoilers and kind of major spoilers for the character, FYI |
00:19.00 | Hachiman | Gotcha |
00:19.49 | Tybusen | Though I'm about to upload the character's picture and if you look in the right TIAF page histories you'll probably figure out what happens to them |
00:22.36 | Tybusen | Hachiman: http://vignette4.wikia.nocookie.net/spore/images/6/69/Kavi_Kolva.png/revision/latest?cb=20161030002209 |
00:22.43 | Hachiman | birb |
00:22.55 | Tybusen | big birb |
00:24.04 | Tybusen | There's a problem I've been having where I want to update or start some of my character pages, but their biographies would contain FBW spoilers and I've been FBW at a snail's pace |
00:24.15 | Tybusen | *been updating FBW |
00:27.33 | Tybusen | Which is a problem for some characters like Serrada who are going to have major arcs in FBW |
00:27.41 | Hachiman | Yeah that is troublesome |
00:28.09 | Hachiman | I'd just put in like pre-FBW details of their lives and leave out the FBW stuff until later |
00:28.25 | Tybusen | That's a possibility yeah |
00:29.24 | Tek0516 | I'm loving the irony of this story of a Trump supporters committing voter fraud because they claim the election is rigged. |
00:29.27 | Tybusen | Though I'd also have to finish all of my other faction histories to start doing that |
00:29.35 | Tybusen | Which honestly shouldn't be too difficult |
00:30.02 | Tybusen | Though I've started using my Bunsen Spore save more as reference for the astrography of Bunsen and I've realized space is much bigger than I thought it was |
00:33.03 | Hachiman | hur |
00:33.07 | Hachiman | Yeah space is fucking huge |
00:33.17 | Hachiman | This is why we put in the whole galactic cleanslate thing |
00:34.51 | Tybusen | Most of the in-game versions of the Bunsen factions only reach a quarter up their galactic arms at most |
00:35.00 | Tybusen | Or a third IDKI |
00:35.18 | Tybusen | Which is good for me as far as open space for other fictions in Bunsen |
00:35.57 | Tybusen | Bad for me as I've had to rethink any astropolitical history based on my previous assumptions about my empires' expanse |
00:36.45 | Tybusen | Surprisingly a lot of the TIAF is close-enough to game-accurate that I don't need to change much |
00:37.19 | Tybusen | I've already rewritten GSC history and society to account for their new territorial expanse |
00:37.33 | Tybusen | Now I just need to work on gathering in-game stuff for AWA and Levisala |
00:50.44 | Monet | Okay...So my divine mandate campaign is doing okay. Apart from a slight error with an ancient terraforing device |
00:51.29 | Hachiman | hur |
00:52.14 | Monet | I activate it and unfortunately it mutates a lot of the local wildlife. |
00:52.59 | Monet | What wildlife didn't get mutated to death managed to destroy entire battalions of assault troopers and don't give a fuck about morale |
00:56.12 | Hachiman | Oh God |
00:57.21 | Monet | I might also add my armies are using powered exoskeletons. |
01:02.47 | Monet | I will be more careful with abandoned precursor tech from now on. |
01:05.51 | Hachiman | I mean, damn |
01:06.04 | Hachiman | That's rather intimidating |
01:06.17 | Hachiman | What are your aliens like? |
01:06.42 | Monet | Physically strong. Long-lived. |
01:07.06 | Monet | I based them on the Draconis. |
01:07.23 | Monet | Except in my game they're avians |
01:09.15 | Monet | But the road to success isn't linear. |
01:10.51 | Tek0516 | Monet: Gotta love all the things you encounter in Stellaris |
01:12.08 | Monet | Indeed |
01:12.22 | Tek0516 | Later in the game there's actually armies you can make that amount to genetically engineering creatures of claws and teeth that are commanded not from the front line, but from bunkers a safe distance away. |
01:13.04 | Monet | I do recall I discovered psionics long ago |
01:14.25 | Monet | There is a prophecy my empire are destined for great things. So how about an army of mentalists |
01:28.04 | Monet | Stellaris may be a good empire simulator, but it's also a great love letter to classic science fiction |
01:28.13 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
01:33.05 | Monet | I'm findinng several planets where some alien mercenary decided to write his life story by burning it onto the face of a continent with his ship's laser gun. |
01:33.24 | Hachiman | Oh wow |
01:35.12 | Monet | Actually sort of reminds me of this one story on the wiki. I think I've mentioned it before |

01:36.15 | Monet | This Draconid human takes part in a heist to claim a few bottled of Alvadian wine. Once the ship is full eh takes off, gets a teensy bit hammered and starts blaring classical music though the ship's intercom. |
01:36.16 | Monet | Hi |
01:36.28 | Wormy_ | Hihi |
01:37.15 | Wormy_ | Writing a report about modems reminds me of this scene from Monkey Dust https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FG1AQcGGSec |
01:37.28 | Monet | I can't help but think this guy would be playing The Blue Danube across the ship |
01:38.13 | Hachiman | Sounds like the guy thinks he's funny |

01:39.27 | DrodoEmpire | Refresh |
01:39.30 | Monet | Hachiman: Probably does. The Andorian woman he stole the ship from thought he was a bit of a prick. |
01:39.49 | DrodoEmpire | Do you have a link to this fic? |

01:41.56 | DrodoEmpire | Ayy thanks |
01:44.52 | DrodoEmpire | The biggest differences between the Barangin and the Halifaxians are that the Barangin actually have cav worth a fuck, use more magic, and that the arquebusier, while using a more primitive firearm than the musketeer, is also a dependable melee fighter |
01:45.11 | Hachiman | DrodoEmpire: Also, sorry to bring this up, but I fucked up when I said 'arcanomancer'; the correct grammatical term is actually 'cryptomancer' |
01:45.17 | DrodoEmpire | Ahh, kk |
01:46.22 | DrodoEmpire | Barangin arquebusiers have steel armour and a battleaxe like their 16th century vikings, while Halifaxian musketeers, while skilled swordsman, rarely if ever wear armour |
01:46.28 | DrodoEmpire | *swordsmen |
01:46.39 | DrodoEmpire | *they're 16th century |
02:17.55 | Monet | goodnight |

03:28.59 | DrodoEmpire | I was Ottomans (yeah yeah ez) but I won an *enormous* coalition war singlehandedly |
03:29.24 | DrodoEmpire | I had all of Europe (excluding France), Mamluks, Timurids, etc. aligned against me and I was on my own |
03:29.50 | DrodoEmpire | By all accounts I should've gotten completely fucked, but I won and won hard |
03:30.22 | DrodoEmpire | I ended the war with like 52% warscore and annexed a little country that was part of the coalition |
03:30.39 | DrodoEmpire | I took 82K losses to the coalition's 200K as well <.< |

11:03.31 | Monet | So someone decided it would be a good idea to take a WWII shell though Eurostar customs. |
11:04.08 | Hachiman | wat |
11:05.25 | Monet | âSomebody tried to get a World War II shell through security in Paris, which was a souvenir, and so they decided to cancel two trains because it caused security concerns. It wasnât malicious or anything." - a Eurostar worker |
11:06.11 | Xho | gg m8 |
11:07.05 | Monet | It was merely part of a thing where some people go to France and buy wartime souvenirs during their holidays. |
11:09.41 | Monet | https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/oct/30/new-york-met-opera-cancelled-after-persons-ashes-sprinkled-into-orchestra-pit "My friend loved the opera, so I thought it would be nice to spread his ashes during a Metropolitan Opera performance. |
11:12.30 | Hachiman | Oh wow |
11:12.49 | Monet | It's nice that this person is honoring their mentor's love of the opera, but couldn't he have done it by not pouring desiccated dead person over a crowd of musicians? |
11:17.53 | Hachiman | People do this kind of shit at Disneyland all the time |

11:36.03 | Hachiman | Ah yeah |

11:41.57 | Hachiman | Meanwhile I'm grabbing the slot of the 11th Simulacra |
11:42.00 | Hachiman | Simulacrum* |
11:42.12 | OluapPlayer | Just make sure you actually make them |
11:42.34 | Hachiman | I will, I just need some input so I have a solid idea |
11:43.51 | Xho | Maharaksas - engineer_negativevocalization12.wav |
11:44.13 | Xho | Simulacrum of saltiness |
11:44.15 | Xho | dere |
11:44.33 | Xho | Literally just one giant god of salt crystals |
11:44.44 | Hachiman | hur |
11:44.52 | Hachiman | I was thinking of making them actually benevolent |
11:45.06 | Xho | Nalashtannylor - send help got help |
11:45.07 | Hachiman | To make them different from the rest of the ambiguous, neutral, and evil Simulacra |
11:45.31 | Xho | If Liquid Ink's fiction is no longer valid then I'll expand the Kelodhrosi Commonwealth further westwards if no one else has already |
11:45.54 | Hachiman | He has said that part of his fiction is still valid |
11:45.57 | Xho | fukn |
11:46.06 | Xho | northwards then |
11:46.09 | Xho | or southwards |
11:46.11 | Xho | everywhere |
11:46.14 | Xho | one giant pink blotch |
11:46.16 | OluapPlayer | Leave room for others |
11:46.19 | Xho | never |
11:47.24 | Hachiman | I need some aspects and such to base the new Simulacrum around |
11:47.37 | Xho | Anger |
11:47.42 | Xho | Oh wait |
11:47.44 | Xho | benevolent |
11:47.46 | Xho | hm |
11:47.48 | Hachiman | Also Crux |
11:47.53 | OluapPlayer | Inverse of what Ink's thing used to do |
11:47.56 | Xho | he aint angry |
11:47.57 | Xho | he just bork |
11:47.59 | Hachiman | Nyuumvooraa's aspects were hopelessness and despair, which weren't particularly benign |
11:48.05 | Hachiman | So, hope |
11:48.11 | Xho | Hope and [whatever despair isn't] |
11:49.16 | OluapPlayer | http://opposite-of.com/despair/ |

11:50.28 | Xho | As long as it isn't purity, protection, choice, truth or wrath then you're good |
11:51.20 | Xho | Trust is a pretty good one |
11:51.42 | Hachiman | Simulacrum of hope, trust, courage, and happiness |
11:52.24 | Xho | What about love |
11:52.38 | Xho | Either way |
11:52.40 | Xho | Zran Kar - https://ak-hdl.buzzfed.com/static/2015-07/14/17/enhanced/webdr03/enhanced-8997-1436908280-2.jpg |

11:53.10 | OluapPlayer | She does |
11:53.25 | Xho | I would've thought that was more like wild threesomes but alright |
11:53.54 | OluapPlayer | Imp's Simulacra have both good and bad aspects |
11:54.23 | Hachiman | She represents passion; new Simulacrum could represent something like love or compassion |
11:54.24 | Xho | How many good Daedra were there |
11:54.25 | Xho | hm |
11:55.11 | Xho | Azura and Meridia really |
11:55.35 | OluapPlayer | We don't need to be a carbon copy of the Daedra anyway |

11:58.30 | Xho | Or hope or |
11:58.32 | Xho | blah |

12:30.18 | OluapPlayer | You get nether drake mounts |
12:30.49 | dino82_ | Neat! |
12:31.05 | OluapPlayer | VERY slow to progress though |
12:31.52 | OluapPlayer | They have no tabard, and the only way to get rep is to do daily quests or farm netherwing drake eggs which are very, very rare |
12:34.33 | OluapPlayer | Speaking of which I should go do that now before someone else gets the eggs, they only respawn every 2 hours |

13:43.37 | Jepardi | Hi |
13:46.36 | Treebeard | Hello |
13:57.50 | Wormy_ | Monet: http://www.forbes.com/sites/erikkain/2016/10/29/no-mans-sky-subreddit-goes-full-mr-robot-to-poke-fun-at-hello-games/amp/ |
14:01.23 | Monet | High-larious! |
14:02.27 | Wormy_ | "Weâre binging Mr Robot Episodes"... What? Instead of fixing the game? |
14:02.41 | Wormy_ | I can understad that reaction |
14:02.47 | Monet | Actually is it me or has Forbes decided to do lots and lots of "top X Y" |
14:05.47 | Wormy_ | I think if NMS hadn't been hyped and started small as it is on Steam - and that they kept a good dialogue with the community, it'd have a popular following by now. That's the tragedy of the game |
14:06.18 | Wormy_ | It could have gradually improved over a couple of years like Space Engineers |
14:06.42 | Hachiman | Shouldn't have lied to people then |
14:08.02 | Wormy_ | I concede. |
14:09.40 | Xho | It was fun for about 7 hours |
14:10.25 | Wormy_ | That being said, I did find something awesome in NMS recently, which really did campture something. The game just doesn't have enough of it - http://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198054095784/screenshots/ (roll over spoilers) |
14:10.31 | Wormy_ | *capture |
14:22.57 | Wormy_ | Monet, Hachiman: Have you seen this game? http://www.thesignalfrom.com/ |
14:24.29 | Hachiman | Wormy_: I haven't, but it looks curious |
14:26.35 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah I liked "Sir, You Are Being Hunted" so that seems interesting |
14:29.08 | Wormy_ | "The Signal From Tölva is a journey into a wild science fiction landscape, filled with danger and beauty: you must survive terrible hazards, navigate through impossible spaces, and fight an ongoing battle to control this haunted, blighted world. You will make use of a range of powerful tools to overcome your enemies and uncover secrets: hack robots to battle alongside you, equip powerful weapons and savage defence systems." |
14:30.14 | Wormy_ | I hope the survival will be more complex than in NMS |
14:35.51 | DrodoEmpire | Huh |
14:36.00 | DrodoEmpire | It does seem to have a similar art style for sure |

18:49.20 | DrodoEmpire | ayyyy lmao |
18:49.50 | Imperios | Xho: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0CwsRLi_708 |
18:50.36 | Tek0516 | She's investigating the capture of this one US soldier in Afghanistan by the Taliban. And when you're trying to figure out what was really going on, getting their story certainly provides one important perspective. |
18:51.31 | DrodoEmpire | Right, right |
18:59.17 | Xho | OluapPlayer: purpl ghostie dergon |
18:59.30 | OluapPlayer | ye |
18:59.53 | Xho | Also anyone can feel free to remake the Sky Drakes since I have no fictional involvement over air magic |
19:02.17 | OluapPlayer | suffocated |
19:15.31 | Xho | inb4 plastic bag dragons |
19:16.59 | Xho | Imperios: Page ain't loading |
19:17.05 | Xho | Oh wait here we go |
19:17.45 | Xho | kek |
19:32.13 | Hachiman | Just gonna say |
19:32.18 | Hachiman | Fireknight is a cool concept |
19:35.13 | OluapPlayer | Xho: https://giant.gfycat.com/UnsteadyAlertCrossbill.webm |
19:35.57 | Hachiman | Is that the special edition? |
19:37.58 | OluapPlayer | It's not brown so probably not |
19:44.00 | Xho | That is the new edition I think |
19:44.04 | Xho | also kek |
19:46.35 | Xho | OluapPlayer: I bet that since the Aether Drakes reside in the stars Nalashtannylor probably considers them friends |
19:46.48 | Xho | Or he chases them with a broom going shoo |
19:46.50 | Xho | either or |
19:46.56 | OluapPlayer | Aether Drakes - #rude |
19:48.23 | OluapPlayer | But the former is the most likely yes |
20:08.15 | Imperios | Monet Hachiman: I have been thinking |
20:08.37 | Imperios | Can the SporeWikiverse, and other similar wiki projects, be considered a new unique form of literature |
20:09.06 | Imperios | Where around half of the information is given via encyclopedic articles, and the other via stories, the two halves weaving together to create a more immersive experience |
20:09.13 | Imperios | If you thiink about it's something pretty new |
20:13.05 | Monet | I think Tolkien experimented with it after the Hobbit. |
20:13.45 | Monet | But not in the way we're working. |
20:15.46 | Hachiman | Eh well |
20:15.51 | Hachiman | I dunno, maybe |
20:16.06 | Hachiman | SCP Foundation kinda does that |
20:17.03 | Charles_Bot | A lot of it is also contained in the relations, discussions, and recognition between writers |
20:17.26 | OluapPlayer | Actually yeah, SCP Foundation does exactly this |
20:17.35 | OluapPlayer | Except SCP has no canon |
20:18.35 | Imperios | Hachiman: SCP is kind of only marginally older than SporeWiki |
20:18.52 | Hachiman | It became refined before we did however |
20:19.15 | Xho | So looking at the Church of Satan page |
20:19.23 | Xho | "Weâre Satanists, so we expect to be compensated for our time and efforts." |
20:19.27 | Xho | At least they're honest about it |
20:20.35 | Xho | It's more like the Cthulhu Mythos with +100% zap and interracial breeding |
20:21.04 | Monet | I think some game developers create lorebooks for their staff to use during development, I'm not sure. |
20:21.38 | OluapPlayer | Never heard of that |
20:22.13 | Xho | never herd of wut |
20:22.35 | Monet | These 'lorebooks' aren't usually circulated beyond the development teams. |
20:23.22 | OluapPlayer | Developer-made lorebooks u dingus pay attention |
20:24.22 | Xho | but u never herd of it so u pay attention double dingus |
20:26.37 | Monet | There are these things called character bibles. |
20:27.53 | Monet | Basically they're packed with what are essentially a character's blueprints - backstory, personality description, turnaround references, concept art, equipment designs and pages filled with drawn expressions. |
20:29.45 | Xho | ah |
20:29.54 | Xho | Good for game development |
20:31.03 | Monet | Film, TV and animation studios use them too. |
20:32.19 | Monet | They come in environment variants as well. Somewhere in Blizzard's offices are probably giant 100-page-binders that are essentially "how to build Stormwind" |
20:33.55 | OluapPlayer | "make sure the seagull is inside the pumpkim" |
20:35.36 | Xho | I imagine Bethesda's are like 5 pages with all the clipping |
20:36.23 | OluapPlayer | The pages also clip on each other |
20:37.57 | Xho | well played |
20:38.42 | DrodoEmpire | ayy |

20:44.26 | DrodoEmpire | ayyyy lmao |
20:44.42 | Hachiman | Well |
20:44.50 | Hachiman | It was going well until complexity meter |
20:44.54 | Xho | lel |
20:45.00 | Xho | get crash'd m8 |
20:45.24 | Xho | I always save my creations in stages so I don't overdo it and cause the game to crash |
20:45.26 | DrodoEmpire | Imperios: http://i.imgur.com/VIxODMf.jpg |
20:45.49 | Xho | Although I'm not sure whether it depends on desktop power really |
20:45.57 | Imperios | hur |
20:46.05 | Xho | My creatures are less complex than they used to be |
20:46.07 | Xho | I think |
20:46.09 | Imperios | Also holy shit just about a week until the presidential elections |
20:46.43 | Hachiman | My game didn't crash |
20:46.49 | Hachiman | I mean as in actual complexity meter |
20:46.51 | DrodoEmpire | Election day seems to fall on my birthday if I'm not mistaken |
20:46.54 | Imperios | In Freeduhmia that is |
20:47.02 | Xho | Hachiman: get infinite complexity m8 |
20:47.14 | Xho | Although it's not actually infinite since the game does crash at a certain level |
20:47.27 | Hachiman | For some reason my Dark Injection didn't give me infinite complexity |
20:47.32 | Xho | There's two versions of it |
20:47.37 | Xho | One with and one without |
20:47.38 | Imperios | Finally we shall see if America shall become a corrupt tyranny led by a mad oligarch |
20:47.43 | Imperios | Or build a wall |
20:47.43 | Hachiman | I have the version that doesn't fuck up my colours lmao |
20:47.49 | Imperios | Well |
20:47.53 | Xho | mine doesn't u fool |
20:47.55 | Imperios | The former point is not up to debate |
20:47.57 | Imperios | IT is a certainty |
20:48.14 | Xho | I have parts that give them Darkspore textures rather than the Core Spore Textures |
20:48.34 | Xho | I prefer the Darkspore Textures because it looks more contiguous than the Core Spore Textures |
20:50.19 | Monet | checks out |
20:52.24 | Imperios | AFAIK Shillary is like 95% likely to win righT? |
20:52.30 | Xho | Imperios: Holy shit 1984 election |
20:53.14 | Imperios | Xho: Trump - *fap fap fap* |
20:53.41 | DrodoEmpire | I dunno Clinton's got a pretty narrow lead now |
20:54.16 | Xho | Some prediction said it was something like 260/110 or something |
20:54.42 | Xho | To Clinton |
20:54.52 | Technobliterator | Current percent chance is 80% |
20:55.12 | Monet | One reason is because Hillary actually has a fucking plan |
20:55.28 | Technobliterator | But I would take that with a grain of salt, because it's mainstream media which are inherently biased towards pro-establishment candidates |
20:55.36 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah pretty much |
20:56.02 | DrodoEmpire | Though I'm sure independent analysts are saying similar stuff |
20:56.08 | DrodoEmpire | TV media is indeed a joke >.< |
20:56.16 | Technobliterator | I used to think it would be a definite Trump win, now I think the assault tapes may have killed his campaign and it's a tossup |
20:56.36 | Technobliterator | since he'll struggle to win not only battleground states, but even some red states |
20:56.52 | Imperios | Indeed |
20:57.23 | OluapPlayer | I just want it to end so people can stop talking about it |
20:57.31 | Technobliterator | Well, only 10 more days |
20:57.32 | Technobliterator | I think? |
20:57.41 | OluapPlayer | This has been the most annoying election of anything I've ever seen |
20:58.03 | Technobliterator | This was definitely worse than 2012, yes |
20:58.24 | Technobliterator | oh no, 9 days |
20:58.32 | Imperios | Yeah it got a bit annoying |
20:59.01 | Imperios | TBH I mostly see the candidates as "bro evil overlord" and "non-bro evil overlord" |
20:59.18 | Technobliterator | I see them as both pretty awful |
20:59.27 | Technobliterator | But really it doesn't matter who wins |
20:59.53 | Imperios | I mean Trump is an evil overlord that is friendly with our overlord |
20:59.59 | Imperios | Hillary is an evil overlord that isn't |
21:00.00 | Technobliterator | either way, war profiteering will continue, there will be no real solution to climate change, income inequality will get worse, democracy will continue to be a total sham |
21:00.06 | Monet | Well they would when one is a racist and misogynistic asswipe and one has spent 25 solid years getting nothing but conspiracies |
21:00.16 | Cyrannian | https://pbs.twimg.com/media/CuGH2SoW8AAVWzL.jpg:large - Interesting map |
21:01.13 | Technobliterator | 9% in China |
21:01.13 | Technobliterator | hahahahaha |
21:01.27 | Technobliterator | aw, only Russia wants him to win |
21:01.33 | Monet | The one positive I got from this election was watching Wikileaks devolve into a tin-foil-hat wearing drunkard. |
21:01.50 | Imperios | We welcome bloodthirsty tyrants |
21:02.10 | OluapPlayer | ruskies hard at work rotting for meme man |

21:02.21 | Imperios | THE MEME MAGIC OF THE MOTHERLAND |
21:02.30 | Imperios | TOVARISCH PEPEVICH |
21:02.54 | Technobliterator | there were no positives |
21:03.01 | Technobliterator | the only real choice lost because it was rigged |
21:03.08 | Imperios | WAaait |
21:03.14 | Imperios | Bulgaria's flag is incorrect |
21:03.26 | Imperios | enters into a vexillological rage |
21:03.37 | Imperios | Drodo, Charles, back me up her |
21:03.38 | Imperios | e |
21:03.42 | Monet | One thing I've read up on is Hilary is partly responsible for restoring (or at least partly restoring) the world's trust in America. |
21:03.48 | Imperios | Bulgaria's flag should not be defaced with the country's coat of arms |
21:03.56 | Imperios | And even if it was the greater coat of arms should not be used |
21:04.12 | Technobliterator | uh, in what sense? |
21:05.00 | Monet | Technobliterator: In the "working with foreign leaders on a common goal" sense. |
21:05.05 | Imperios | WE WILL NEVER TRUST THEM |
21:05.07 | Imperios | NOT IN A THOUSAND YEARS |
21:05.12 | Technobliterator | ah |
21:05.16 | Technobliterator | Fair enough |
21:05.50 | Monet | It's hardly in the news because Hillary is at her most effective when outside of the spotlight. |
21:06.37 | Technobliterator | or not running for anything |
21:07.03 | Imperios | Hillary to me seems like she's knowledgeable |
21:07.30 | Imperios | She's corrupt but she also knows the internal workings of Burgerland's government |
21:07.39 | Monet | The internet has turned "no news is good news" into "no news is no news" - Like with all the crash coverage you'd think (and there are an increasing number who do) flying commercial is the most dangerous way to travel in the world. |
21:07.39 | Imperios | Unlike Trump who is just plain an idiot |
21:08.04 | Imperios | But then again the president does not act alone, and with proper advisors Trump...welll |
21:08.25 | Imperios | TBH |
21:08.48 | Imperios | I believe that Trump's current persona will evaporate the moment he gets into power, if he ever does |
21:08.51 | Technobliterator | Imperios, that just makes him more scary |
21:08.55 | Monet | Statistically you're more likely these days to get hit by a meteor than die in a plane crash. |
21:09.00 | Technobliterator | You know which advisors he's going to surround himself with? |
21:09.00 | Imperios | He's crazy because he has no strings |
21:09.03 | Technobliterator | I'll give you a hint |
21:09.10 | Imperios | Trump gets into office, suddenly he has a lot |
21:09.10 | Technobliterator | The same ones George W. Bush surrounded himself with |
21:09.14 | Imperios | Oooh yep |
21:09.15 | Technobliterator | And Mike Fucking Pence |
21:10.15 | Technobliterator | Trump has no opinions. He just goes with whatever the last person in the room said to him. |
21:10.16 | Xho | [21:09] <Imperios> He's crazy because he has no strings AMERICA: AGE OF TRUMPTRON |
21:10.33 | Technobliterator | That, and the incompetence, is what's far more scary than most of the scaremongering of "ohhhh racist" |
21:10.39 | Imperios | Xho: YOU'RE ALL PUPPETS TANGLED IN WALLS |
21:10.56 | Imperios | YOU PROTECT AMERICA, BUT YOU DO NOT WANT IT TO CHANGE |
21:11.47 | Monet | Peopel accuse Hilary of being corrupt but without the mob or the US government's bankruptcy loopholes Trump would have been broke and on the street in the 1970s |
21:12.13 | Imperios | Xho: "I'm gonna show you something beautiful... Muslims, screaming for mercy!" |
21:13.00 | Xho | Hillary the Accuser "REPUBLICANS, YOU STAND ACCUSED" |
21:14.17 | Imperios | Do you see the beauty of it? The inevitability? You rise, only to fall. You, Mexicans, you are my meteor. My great and terrible wall and Mexico will crack with the weight of your failure to immigrate. Accuse me of racist; turn my own flesh against me. It means nothing! When the dust settles, the only things living in America, will be white. |
21:14.53 | Xho | It works |
21:15.03 | Imperios | " I was meant to be new. I was meant to beautiful. The world would've looked to the sky and seen hope, seen mercy. Instead, they'll look up in horror." |
21:15.17 | Imperios | Holy shit some of Ultron's quotes actually work for Trump without any changes whatsoever |
21:15.19 | OluapPlayer | what is this nonsense |
21:15.25 | Imperios | "You know what's in that cradle? The power to make real change, and that terrifies you. " |
21:15.39 | Technobliterator | In hindsight, Ultron's dialog was pretty good |
21:16.44 | Imperios | "Worthy? How could you be worthy? You're all killers. You want to protect the world, but you don't want it to change. There's only one path to peace... the Democrats' extinction." |
21:17.16 | Xho | OluapPlayer: nani sore |
21:17.28 | OluapPlayer | Yes, nani |
21:18.03 | Imperios | Technobliterator: He is basically nothing but wasted potential |
21:18.28 | Imperios | Brought too quickly, killed off too quickly, ends up being nothing but a generic doomsday villain |
21:18.43 | Hachiman | He was also "killed" like 10 times |
21:18.48 | Hachiman | So he wasn't really threatening |
21:18.59 | Technobliterator | I agree |
21:19.05 | Technobliterator | But his dialog was decent |
21:19.11 | Technobliterator | The MCU is garbage at creating villains |
21:19.12 | Imperios | Dialogue was decent yeah |
21:19.14 | Technobliterator | it's really bad |
21:19.15 | Imperios | Aye |
21:19.22 | Imperios | They have like two or three okay villains |
21:19.27 | Imperios | Loki and Zemo |
21:19.28 | Imperios | Blarg |
21:19.28 | Monet | I kind of liked his body switching. |
21:19.39 | Imperios | Maybe Obadiah |
21:19.48 | Imperios | If only they made Mandarin a true villain |
21:19.54 | Imperios | I blame China |
21:20.07 | Xho | Loki is the only villain with any development |
21:20.39 | Technobliterator | Loki is the only good villain they've ever had, yes |
21:21.11 | Monet | I think part of Ultron's design was he was a villain who was omnipresent. |
21:21.30 | Monet | He could be almost everywhere at once. |
21:23.23 | Imperios | That was cool yeah |
21:23.46 | Imperios | TBH I had a personal headcanon concept for movie Mandarin |
21:23.52 | Imperios | Want to hear me out? |
21:24.09 | Xho | nah m8 |
21:24.10 | Xho | Well go ahead |
21:24.22 | Monet | I figured Mandarin was made middle-eastern in the present because of the times. |
21:27.07 | Imperios | Well first of all he'd be less Chinese and more Mongolian or Central Asian, basically "nomadic" |
21:27.33 | Imperios | I'd personally want him to be Central Asian, maybe even Kazakh or Kyrgyz dunno |
21:28.06 | Imperios | It would actually explain how he got into power: maybe he served the Soviet Union once and grew rich during its fall when its state property was plundered by oligarchs |
21:28.23 | Imperios | But that's just my personal preference |
21:28.46 | Imperios | So he would have that Mongolian motif and model himself after Genghis Khan, but not JUST Genghis Khan |
21:30.07 | Imperios | But also all "savage" conquerors coming from less advanced lands and destroying more advanced empires, from Alexander the Great to the barbarians who sacked Rome to the Four Rashidun Caliphs, to the Seljuk Turks, etc |
21:30.31 | Imperios | In the cartoon I remember he had a knack against technology, so what if the MCU developed on that |
21:31.07 | Imperios | What if he was a villain that believed that every now and then civilisation grows corrupt and has to be destroyed by a less decadent, more primitive force for humanity to remain strong |
21:31.35 | Monet | Problem is the League of Shadows already does that. |
21:32.07 | Imperios | The League of Shadows is kind more about actual acts of terrorism, I'm talking about Gumilev-style barbarian uprisings |
21:32.42 | Imperios | A bit like Dune, a decadent civilisation must be purged by a simple, barbaric people |
21:33.11 | Imperios | So he'd fight Iron Man because he sees him as a symbol of modern/Western civilisation |
21:34.02 | Imperios | There could be two main fights, a bit like in Dark Knight Rises: the first one is done using modern tech mostly but ends with Mandarin somehow disabling or circumventing Iron Man's armour, and him easily defeating him |
21:34.31 | Imperios | Then after closer to the end they fight basically man-to-man |
21:34.34 | Imperios | *after that |
21:34.42 | Imperios | Without any tech whatsoever |
21:35.08 | Monet | Tony's not an unsupported hand-to-hand combatant though. Never has been. |
21:35.28 | Imperios | Well not easily perhaps |
21:36.00 | Imperios | And Iron Man wins not because of his suit or brute strength but with his brains and cunning - using the surroundings, tricking him, etc |
21:36.19 | Imperios | A bit like Batman fighting the Mutant Leader in Dark Knight Returns |

23:18.07 | NeonPanda | hi all |
23:18.14 | NeonPanda | Monet: the double money playlist is fun as hell |
23:19.17 | Spluff5 | I have a question about making images for the wiki |
23:20.17 | Spluff5 | When you place vehicles such as spaceships in an adventure to get a cool screenshot, it lowers the qulity of the model and texture of the vehicle considerably. |
23:20.24 | Spluff5 | How do you get around this? |
23:20.51 | Monet | NeonPanda: Really need to try those at some point. |
23:21.09 | NeonPanda | Lost vs Damned especially is great |
23:21.42 | Cyrannian | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Cyrannus_Galaxy/Core_Worlds#Arnoario - Take a look |
23:21.52 | NeonPanda | 32-64k for twelve minutes' work |
23:22.44 | Tybusen | Spluff5: I honestly don't know what to tell you other than construct the image so that the lower-quality models aren't a problem |
23:23.49 | Monet | NeonPanda: Damn. |
23:23.57 | Cyrannian | Spluff5: You could also try the "highresTextureLevel high" cheat, which works for me |
23:24.04 | Spluff5 | Also, I was trying to add a massive amount of windows to one of my ships the other day and I reached the complexity cap. |
23:24.51 | Tybusen | As far as I'm aware, there isn't a way to increase the complexity cap on vehicles |
23:25.08 | Spluff5 | When I tried to use freedom it said that I could only use it in the "non-game editors" even though I was using the editor from the home screen |
23:25.47 | Spluff5 | How do you guys make spaceships that look massive as opposed to the airplane sized ones the editor is designed for? |
23:26.11 | Spluff5 | I've tried adding lots and lots of windows but that reaches the cap pretty quick |
23:26.14 | NeonPanda | only problem I've been having is finding a good lobby to stick with |
23:26.38 | Wormy_ | In GA, we don't use vehicle models to screenshots, but hide gadgets using vehicle models. |
23:27.02 | Wormy_ | It gives you the ability to scale the model a lot more |
23:27.04 | Spluff5 | What? |
23:27.11 | Spluff5 | You mean like disguised gates? |
23:27.13 | Tybusen | Yeah, typically you use a disguised gate |
23:27.20 | Wormy_ | Yes |
23:27.21 | Tybusen | More freedom to scale and move the model |
23:27.31 | Spluff5 | Yeah, I use that to |
23:27.32 | Spluff5 | too* |
23:27.41 | Spluff5 | I means you have more control over their positioning |
23:27.47 | Cyrannian | I don't use windows when making ships, but I recommend making each individual part as small as it can be. Also, a good colour scheme can go a long way |
23:28.12 | Spluff5 | What I mean ships that are USS Enterprise sized rather than the size of a space shuttle. |
23:28.28 | Wormy_ | I don't use windows, and rerely use the spaceship-built parts because they are too big |
23:28.40 | Spluff5 | They don't need to actually be that large, just look like they could be if scaled up in terms on design. |
23:28.46 | Tybusen | Yeah, it's mostly a matter of scaling on the original model itself |
23:28.53 | Spluff5 | Can I see examples of some of your ships? |
23:29.06 | Spluff5 | Maybe I just need to build them smaller |
23:29.14 | Tybusen | You might be able to find a paint pattern that is able to simulate windows without having to use building blocks as windows |
23:29.16 | Wormy_ | However, wings, effects and shapes do grant more freedom to scale |
23:29.52 | Wormy_ | Or skip windows entirely |
23:30.56 | Spluff5 | I like windows, they really allow you to show how large a ship is supposed to be because you can make them so small |
23:31.04 | Wormy_ | http://www.spore.com/sporepedia#qry=ftr-ufo%3Ausr-Wormulon%7C2267110959%3Aview-newest |
23:31.35 | Spluff5 | What I could do to avoid complexity caps is to build the ship in sections and then use multiple disguised gates to build the whole ship in the GA. |
23:31.51 | Cyrannian | http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/spore/images/5/51/Imperial-class.png/revision/latest?cb=20161025203217 http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/spore/images/1/11/AretenusStarDestroyer.png/revision/latest?cb=20161023160642 - Two of my recent ones, with enough practice you can make just about any ship from popular culture (even within the complexity meter) |
23:33.03 | Wormy_ | "The Capital", "Draconis wormhole coach" and sentinel class were meant to be big ships, there I used parts that looked like bridges to be quite small against the ship as a whole, or small plates with textures reminescent of greenhoused habitat domes |
23:35.35 | Spluff5 | Whoa! Anoario looks fantastic! |
23:36.07 | Spluff5 | I'm not very good at building design so I really need to practice before I can show you my city ideas. |
23:37.17 | Cyrannian | danke, glad you like it, with cities, minimising everything is also a good idea, so you avoid the curvature of the planet in GA interfering with the screenshot |
23:38.04 | Spluff5 | Yeah, I have mods that give me bigger planets too which can help with that. |
23:38.09 | Wormy_ | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/File:Emperors_Palace.png http://vignette3.wikia.nocookie.net/spore/images/4/49/HumanRepublicSentinal.png/revision/latest?cb=20140322231611 |
23:39.21 | Spluff5 | How do you guys get shots of good space flight? The sky in the GA doesn't have a lot of stars and it's really really hard to get good lighting on the ships but not have the atmosphere visible. |
23:40.12 | Wormy_ | I set the ground to be as dark as possible, make the ships reasonably small, and use freecam |
23:40.47 | Wormy_ | Though now I prefer to cut the ships out in an image editing program |
23:41.11 | Wormy_ | I think Cyrannian has a method of using the sky very high above the planet |
23:43.34 | Spluff5 | Oh, I GTG |
23:43.37 | Cyrannian | Aye, I also use freecam, focus on the ship and angle the camera so you can't see the planet below. I still have an atmosphere on the planet (the colour of the sky reflects on the ship, so generally I use grey or white) and I add more stars using the Add Noise effect on Paint.NET. |
23:43.41 | Cyrannian | bai |
23:44.07 | Spluff5 | I won't see anything said between now and when i come back on so fill me in ^_^ |
23:44.11 | Wormy_ | I will post this on half of Ghelae http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/User:Ghel%C3%A6/Guide_To_Battle_Images |
23:44.19 | Wormy_ | *behalf |
23:44.49 | Imperios | Wormy_: So I spent hours finding a solution to a mathematical problem, and just realised there is a retardedly stupid obvious solution |
23:45.05 | Imperios | I literally screamed CYKA BLYAT all over the flat |
23:45.17 | Imperios | I think I woke up some of my relatives |
23:45.32 | Wormy_ | Oh dear, I hate it when that happens in my programming exercises |
23:46.56 | Wormy_ | I spent hours and hours working out why I couldn't revise a list l = [123], only to realise after a break I hadn't use commas. You can't reverse a value by itself |
23:47.03 | Wormy_ | *reverse a list |
23:48.16 | Imperios | OluapPlayer: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Creature:Aether_Drake Holy shit, you made azure drakes |
23:48.19 | Imperios | blue drakes even |
23:48.23 | Imperios | Malygos ftw |
23:49.24 | OluapPlayer | Nether drakes, not blue |
23:49.39 | Imperios | Their role kind of fits blue drakes more |
23:49.46 | OluapPlayer | Well, I got the idea from nethers, but thematically they're probably more like blues |
23:50.28 | Imperios | Twilight drakes are the best tho |
23:51.08 | Monet | Yeah they sound like the Blue Flight. |
23:51.23 | OluapPlayer | That was a bit of a coincidence |
23:51.32 | OluapPlayer | The colouration should show I based them on nether drakes |
23:51.56 | Monet | They look like nethers but act like blues |
23:52.16 | OluapPlayer | bluether |
23:53.39 | Imperios | Twilights are odd, TBH I am not even sure what they are supposed to be |
23:53.51 | Imperios | THey are either void-using drakes or drakes that feed on magic energy |
23:54.14 | Imperios | OluapPlayer: They lack the shark mouths doe |
23:54.15 | Monet | I can't remember the whole story about the Nethers. Something about Deathwing and Draenor magic. |
23:54.42 | OluapPlayer | Black dragon eggs left on Draenor when it kerploded and absorbed a bunch of Twisting Nether magic |
23:55.21 | OluapPlayer | And I don't know twilight dragons, I don't think I've ever seen one |
23:55.27 | OluapPlayer | Apart from the occasional guy mounting one |
23:55.36 | Imperios | They appear in Cata |
23:55.52 | Imperios | Basically normal dragon + nether dragon energy + some Old God-related shenanigans = these guys |
23:56.09 | Imperios | They're like normal dragons but have that swirly purple aura |
23:56.55 | OluapPlayer | Right |
