00:42.11 | Tek0516 | Alright, time to finally try out the new Kaiserreich mod. |
00:44.49 | Tek0516 | (This big HoI4 alt history mod) |
01:00.53 | Tek0516 | Pretty heavy on the total conversion actually. |
01:07.40 | Monet | I'm guessing it extends the lifespan of the HRE |
01:11.02 | Tek0516 | Nah, it's supposed to be an alt history where Germany wins WWI. |
01:12.57 | Tek0516 | Monet: Quick screenshot of Eurasia just to gie an indication https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/nWkNSBtx/20161212201122_1.jpg |
01:13.37 | Monet | Well I was right about it being one of Germany's Reichs at least |
01:13.50 | Monet | Right idea I guess, wrong Reich. |
01:16.35 | Tek0516 | From what I understand of the alt-history Germany basically wins everything in the post-war era. And then when the game starts everything their cracking system basically implodes. I'm sure Charles_Murray's France would understand. :P |
01:18.26 | NeonPanda | so what you're saying is, Germany borrowed a bit too much from ancient Rome? :P |
01:20.50 | Tek0516 | Well also everyone else got totally screwed by the war and now most of them are beginning to recover. For example a communist revolution happened in the UK that resulted in the monarchy fleeing to Canada and most of the Empire collapsing. |
01:22.57 | Tek0516 | I think the USA also undergoes a civil war too. |
01:23.52 | Tek0516 | France also goes Communist and Petain forms a government in exile in Africa. |
01:24.39 | Tek0516 | German intervention causes the Bolsheviks to lose the Civil War. |
01:24.40 | Tek0516 | etc. |
01:26.25 | Monet | So by 1939 the communist movement happened in reverse: Losing in Russia but taking root in France and the UK |

01:30.47 | Tek0516 | Monet: There's also something in its history about communism being different in its timeline, instead of kind we know Syndicalism became the dominant type of communism. |
01:31.34 | Tek0516 | Hello DrodoEmpire |

02:47.22 | The_Randomness | Hello |
02:53.05 | Tek0516 | ...it sounded like russia is supposed to be easy in this, but right now I'm think I'm on a story arc towards implosion. >.> |
03:23.02 | Tek0516 | ...and now a new Soviet Union appears. >.> |
03:26.56 | Tek0516 | ...except I can't attack it? O.o |
03:32.56 | DrodoEmpire | Oh wooow |
03:33.03 | DrodoEmpire | Leafy's still getting less h |
03:33.16 | DrodoEmpire | *than a quarter the views he used to |
03:37.22 | Tek0516 | runs around panicking trying to move the entire army onto a border that didn't even exist a week before |
03:38.33 | DrodoEmpire | hur |
03:39.43 | Tek0516 | All I know is this popped up with a huge militia army and for some reason all my troops have almost no organization. https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/ALfSXChl/20161212223904_1.jpg |
03:41.03 | DrodoEmpire | Weird |
03:41.52 | Tek0516 | I think it's from that thing where all your troops have no supply at the start? |
03:44.30 | Tek0516 | But basically because of that none of my troops are advancing in to the empty spaces. >.> |
03:46.19 | Tek0516 | DrodoEmpire: Have you tried the Kaiserreich mod? |
03:46.38 | DrodoEmpire | I don't play HOI |
03:46.41 | DrodoEmpire | Yet anyway |
03:46.54 | Tek0516 | Ah. |
03:58.30 | Tek0516 | Oh neat. Finland offers to create an Anti-soviet faction. |
04:06.06 | Spluff5 | Yay! |
04:06.21 | Spluff5 | I just finished re-designing my Virloyd species. |
04:07.06 | Spluff5 | http://imgur.com/FBf3c22 |
04:07.45 | DrodoEmpire | Huh |
04:08.14 | DrodoEmpire | I like it |
04:09.05 | Spluff5 | I initially designed it before I had dark-injection. The second design takes inspiration more from orchids rather than the classic flower shape. |
04:10.34 | DrodoEmpire | Ahh |
04:16.42 | Tek0516 | DrodoEmpire: ...shit. https://usercontent.irccloud-cdn.com/file/FCfOwS6L/20161212231536_1.jpg |
04:16.54 | DrodoEmpire | Indeed |
04:18.24 | Tek0516 | wat |
04:18.52 | Tek0516 | And I heard people talking about Russia being a good nation to try this out with or something. >.< |
04:19.01 | DrodoEmpire | hur |
04:19.55 | Tek0516 | I think I'm winning this at least... but yikes. |
04:20.09 | Spluff5 | Turns out you can disguise a gate as cells and creatures. |
04:20.13 | Tek0516 | Maybe I'm just doing this wrong? >. |
04:20.19 | Spluff5 | http://imgur.com/yl5C0Fs |
04:30.22 | Tek0516 | ...and then the peace conference screwed up so I've ragequit. |
04:33.44 | Tek0516 | I tried to play that for fun but now I'm just frustrated and angry. |
04:34.15 | DrodoEmpire | >: |
04:34.44 | Tek0516 | Th peace screwed up so I couldn't even fully annex the soviets. >.< |

09:05.13 | Groxkiller98 | Heya. |
09:21.26 | Groxkiller98 | Anything interesting happening at the moment? |
09:25.30 | Hachiman | Not particularly |
09:32.07 | Groxkiller98 | Fair enough. |
09:34.34 | Spluff5 | Test |
09:34.41 | Spluff5 | Can you guys see that? |
09:35.19 | Groxkiller98 | Yes. |
09:36.11 | Spluff5 | Interesting |
09:36.23 | Groxkiller98 | Why? |
09:38.36 | Groxkiller98 | Also... My hand hurts. Think I might have RSI... D: |
09:40.49 | Spluff5 | My internet is not supposed to be working right now. |
09:41.07 | Groxkiller98 | Oh. That's... weird. |
09:41.12 | Groxkiller98 | Very weird. |
09:41.39 | Groxkiller98 | You should have been disconnected by the system, unless you're riding another network. |
09:42.02 | Groxkiller98 | ...Or your network is actually perfectly fine, and IS in fact working. |
09:42.17 | Groxkiller98 | I'm an ICT student. I know these things. :3 |
09:42.27 | Groxkiller98 | ...Actually writing a support plan now. >_> |
09:43.12 | Spluff5 | Lol |
09:43.39 | Hachiman | RSI? |
09:43.48 | Groxkiller98 | Repetitive Strain Injury. |
09:44.06 | Groxkiller98 | Basically... Cramps because of typing, or mouse use, |
09:44.06 | Hachiman | Ah right |
09:44.12 | Groxkiller98 | Hurts... |
09:44.17 | Hachiman | Should've known because I've got digital artist friends |
09:45.11 | Groxkiller98 | They will probably get it on occasion then. |
09:45.26 | Groxkiller98 | Also, my birthday is tomorrow. ;3 |
09:48.18 | Groxkiller98 | Gonna turn 18. I'll finally be able to drink. Probably won't though. |
09:49.04 | Hachiman | It's not for everyone |
09:49.24 | Groxkiller98 | It is for me, here in the UK. |
09:49.34 | Groxkiller98 | Wait... I read that wrong. XD |
09:49.37 | Groxkiller98 | I think. |
09:49.43 | Hachiman | You did |
09:49.55 | Hachiman | Considering I'm also a UK resident |
09:50.15 | Groxkiller98 | Well, legally I will be able to. But I'm unlikely to regardless. |
09:51.00 | Hachiman | You're able to legally drink from a young age in the privacy of your own household under parent supervision |
09:51.17 | Hachiman | You're just unable to drink publicly or purchase alcohol |
09:51.35 | Hachiman | I know cus I've been doing this for years lmao |
09:52.06 | Groxkiller98 | XD |
09:52.15 | Groxkiller98 | Yeah, but now I could go and do it at the bar. |
09:52.26 | Groxkiller98 | But I won't, because I don't want to become a drunken lunatic. |
09:52.49 | Hachiman | That's a fairly generalising thing to say |
09:52.57 | Groxkiller98 | ...I mean no offence there to alcohol lovers, I just don't know how I'd act. |
09:53.21 | Hachiman | I'd consider it worse to drink at home than in a public space with company |
09:53.22 | Groxkiller98 | And don't wanna risk it, considering how I can act when I'm sober. |
09:55.26 | Groxkiller98 | Anyway... http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Captain:Tana%27Suloni got a few minor page updates. Can I get some opinions? |
09:55.54 | Hachiman | If I can be sincerely honest |
09:56.08 | Hachiman | Why is there so much heterochromia shared between you and Zilla's fiction |
09:56.27 | Groxkiller98 | Whu? This is my first character with it. |
09:56.51 | Hachiman | Oh, might be Zilla and someone else then |
09:56.54 | Groxkiller98 | XD |
09:57.10 | Groxkiller98 | Fair enough. Other points? Typos included. |
09:57.22 | Hachiman | Sorry, it's nothing personal, I just tend to lump the newer users in with each other at my age |
09:57.33 | Hachiman | I'd suggest getting a Personality section written ASAP |
09:57.34 | Groxkiller98 | XD |
09:57.39 | Groxkiller98 | Oh, right. |
09:57.42 | Groxkiller98 | I plan on that. |
09:58.12 | Groxkiller98 | And am I still the baby writer? XD |
09:58.24 | Hachiman | Compared to me yes hur |
09:58.35 | Hachiman | I'd also suggest maybe specifying what her limits are with her powers |
09:58.37 | Groxkiller98 | I've been here what? Nearly a year? Maybe a tad longer? |
09:58.41 | Groxkiller98 | Alright. |
09:58.53 | Hachiman | I still consider DrodoAway to be a babby user compared to me |
09:58.59 | Hachiman | And he's been here for three or something |
09:59.51 | Groxkiller98 | XD |
10:01.28 | Hachiman | I'm not sure what else to really suggest given you've got a lot of base information down already but I'd really suggest trying to bump up how much content there is |
10:01.33 | Hachiman | Which isn't an easy thing |
10:02.12 | Groxkiller98 | Okay. |
10:02.32 | Hachiman | Like, I'd suggest going more into her history prior to her joining the Red Devils |
10:02.55 | Groxkiller98 | What about names? I'm not sure I struck it quite right with the Mithadorn naming system. |
10:03.11 | Hachiman | Hm |
10:04.22 | Hachiman | Well, can you give me a bit of detail about their naming system? |
10:04.59 | Hachiman | Like, what determines HOW they are named |
10:05.35 | Groxkiller98 | Basically, each name is split into two segments. |
10:06.03 | Groxkiller98 | A personal name, and family name. Such as Key'Tara, which is Key of the Tara family. |
10:06.10 | Hachiman | Right |
10:06.24 | Groxkiller98 | This isn't a strict truth though. |
10:06.33 | Groxkiller98 | Such as the twins Vexx'ene and Val'deer. |
10:06.35 | Hachiman | So, what problems are you having with their names? |
10:06.55 | Groxkiller98 | I just don't think it quite works. Some names get very long, and others are awfully short. |
10:07.16 | Hachiman | That applies to real life as well though |
10:07.28 | Groxkiller98 | Saeyo'Kaanavas is a Mithadorn name. So is Nu'vex. |
10:07.41 | Groxkiller98 | Might just be me being picky. |
10:08.28 | Hachiman | I don't see a problem personally, although if you want to try and resolve the issue, you could go back and have your names adhere to a stricter syste, |
10:08.30 | Hachiman | system* |
10:08.49 | Groxkiller98 | I might retcon the family name part and put something in there that is stricter. |
10:08.55 | Hachiman | As in, names, both personal and familial, only usually range between one and two syllables |
10:12.21 | Groxkiller98 | Well, names are something I can think on later. |
10:12.42 | Groxkiller98 | I have a strict rule on how names are, just not why. |
10:13.01 | Groxkiller98 | It's always two segments. Literally every one of them. |
10:13.27 | Hachiman | I mean, that's not unusual |
10:13.44 | Groxkiller98 | Seriously, I can challenge you to go find one that breaks the rule and confidently say none will deviate from that. |
10:14.28 | Hachiman | In real life, names can differ a lot even in the same language |
10:14.56 | Groxkiller98 | I know. |
10:15.19 | Groxkiller98 | But I'm keeping that rule on Mithadorn names. It's an ingrained area of culture. |
10:15.57 | Groxkiller98 | Might make a guy with a ludicrous number of titles though. Depends if I can make it actually funny. |
10:16.51 | Hachiman | Perhaps you could do something to give names a common theme beyond the naming structure - say, a set of letters and sounds that are found between names, or sex / gender differences, how personal and / or familial names start and en |
10:16.53 | Hachiman | end* |
10:17.43 | Groxkiller98 | Yeah. Maybe. |
10:17.55 | Hachiman | I've had this problem before and I worked on it by doing my best to make the naming conventions as strict as possible to give me more ideas for what will sound good |
10:18.03 | Groxkiller98 | Right. |
10:18.03 | Hachiman | Working within boundaries and whatnot |
10:18.37 | Hachiman | I also go through multiple naming revisions before I set stuff in stone |
10:18.47 | Groxkiller98 | Yeah. I came up with most of my rules AFTER Vexx'ene and Val'deer, whom have partaken in collaborations and can't really be retconned, |
10:19.05 | Groxkiller98 | A mistake to be honest. |
10:19.44 | Groxkiller98 | I've also been seriously neglecting my other two empires. >_> |
10:19.52 | Groxkiller98 | I ought to do something with them both. |
10:20.18 | Hachiman | Working on them may give you further inspiration and solutions for the Mithadorn |
10:20.19 | Groxkiller98 | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Teyan_Imperium_of_Andromeda and http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Ankoran_Empire |
10:20.33 | Groxkiller98 | They're so underdeveloped, I'm not sure where to start. |
10:21.22 | Groxkiller98 | I suppose Culture is a good place to start. |
10:21.31 | Groxkiller98 | And I'll likely redo their history. |
10:22.29 | Hachiman | Well, you could always use both fictional and real world references - Hell, I tend to examine other people's fic if I want to do something different or shares similar traits |
10:23.15 | Groxkiller98 | Yeah. |
10:23.25 | Groxkiller98 | I notice Cyn takes a lot from Star Wars. |
10:23.46 | Groxkiller98 | Hell, his galaxy is basically a parody of it. |
10:24.27 | Hachiman | I'll just say that Imperios is a really good person to talk to regarding names |
10:24.35 | Hachiman | He's a linguist so |
10:25.23 | Groxkiller98 | I'll try poke him then. |

10:50.36 | Groxkiller98 | Hey, Oluap. |
10:51.31 | Groxkiller98 | I might completely redo the Ankoran... Save for when they have interacted with other nations. |
10:54.55 | Groxkiller98 | They're pretty horribly done. >_< |
10:55.56 | Hachiman | Eh, mostly everyone's early fiction is |
10:56.32 | Groxkiller98 | They were my first. |
10:56.50 | Groxkiller98 | Then the Teyan. Then I went and got it somewhat right with the Mithadorn. |
10:56.57 | Groxkiller98 | I think, |
10:59.15 | Groxkiller98 | Also... Nu'vex is gonna be my first Essence user, I think. Unless I practice it with a Teyan. |
10:59.41 | Hachiman | Any specific powers? |
11:00.34 | Groxkiller98 | Looking through them. |
11:01.00 | Groxkiller98 | I like the idea of someone turning Demonic Energy into a force of good, but that seems unlikely. |
11:01.32 | Groxkiller98 | Not sure how corruptive it is, but I cam tell it is somewhat so. |
11:01.42 | Hachiman | It's definitely corruptive |
11:01.57 | OluapPlayer | It's literally called Demonic |
11:02.00 | Groxkiller98 | Then it's a no-go. XD |
11:02.18 | Groxkiller98 | I was thinking along the lines of Warlocks in WoW, fighting Fel with Fel. |
11:03.10 | Groxkiller98 | Maybe I'll give Demonic to an Xhodocto cultist later on. |
11:03.47 | Groxkiller98 | Is Dream Energy all that corruptive? Or just dangerous if mishandled? |
11:04.12 | Hachiman | Dream energy is owned by Oluap so I'd consult him before making mention of it |
11:04.22 | Hachiman | It's also EXTREMELY difficult to find |
11:04.26 | Hachiman | And very dangerous to use |
11:04.39 | OluapPlayer | You can't use Dream |
11:04.48 | OluapPlayer | If you want to make a first essence char, go for Elemental |
11:04.55 | Hachiman | I was gonna say |
11:05.06 | Hachiman | Elemental is the most versatile option available to you |
11:05.42 | Groxkiller98 | Alright. Will do. |
11:05.44 | Hachiman | You can use Elemental to do almost anything that Warhammer psykers and Star Wars Jedi can do |
11:05.50 | Groxkiller98 | :D |
11:05.51 | Hachiman | *everything rather |
11:07.36 | Groxkiller98 | Elemental Energy seems pretty vague on... everything. |
11:08.49 | Hachiman | It's rather vague, yes |
11:08.58 | OluapPlayer | Ask Wormy for help since it's his essence |
11:09.58 | Groxkiller98 | I will. Do I need to ask him for a specific go-ahead as well? |
11:10.12 | Groxkiller98 | Or can I start working and ask for help along the way? |
11:10.31 | OluapPlayer | I don't think you need his permission to get started |
11:11.09 | Groxkiller98 | Alright. |
11:12.37 | Groxkiller98 | I'll ask Xho to use Demonic once I have some of this figured out on one of the Xhodocto cultists. |
11:12.47 | Groxkiller98 | Still super happy he let me have them. |
11:14.09 | Groxkiller98 | Can I get any pointers on how to improve this? http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Teyan_Imperium_of_Andromeda |
11:16.20 | Hachiman | I'll have to read through later |
11:16.42 | Groxkiller98 | Okay. |
11:26.49 | Groxkiller98 | I'll definitely need to poke Xho. I have an idea for a cultist I really wanna ask him about. |

11:43.36 | Groxkiller98 | It'd be weird |
11:43.45 | Groxkiller98 | And... weird. And wrong. |
11:43.48 | Tybusen | He crusaded people while having mismatched internal organs |
11:43.57 | Groxkiller98 | >_> |
11:44.42 | Tybusen | There's nothing more terrifying than seeing a guy swinging a giant sword or axe at you and also knowing that at that very moment his body is rejecting its most vital organ |
11:44.53 | Hachiman | Bro |
11:44.59 | Hachiman | Do you not know of Baldwin IV |
11:46.13 | Groxkiller98 | I'm just going to pretend I was never here... |
11:52.35 | Tybusen | shit, 4 am |
11:52.37 | Tybusen | i should sleep |
11:52.49 | Groxkiller98 | Yeah. Go to bed. |

13:08.09 | Monet | hi |
13:10.04 | OluapPlayer | Hi |
13:45.52 | ImpyDroid2 | Hachiman OluapPlayer: Hm. Have I told you a story about Putin and Cthulhu? |
13:46.04 | ImpyDroid2 | I finished reading Shadow over Innsmouth and was reminded of it |
13:46.22 | ImpyDroid2 | Hi |
13:48.11 | OluapPlayer | You've not |
13:49.42 | ImpyDroid2 | So in 2006 Putin answered to various questions from the Internet |
13:50.03 | ImpyDroid2 | One of the questions was "What do you think of the awakening of Cthulhu" |
13:51.17 | ImpyDroid2 | His response was: "I treat otherworldly forces like that with disdain. One would find more truth in the Bible, the Talmud or the Quran." |
13:52.00 | ImpyDroid2 | In other words, he dissed the Great Old Ones |
13:52.15 | Monet | Someone should have replied "what about the Necronomicon?" |
13:52.38 | ImpyDroid2 | I think he was meant to say that the Bible is superior to the Necronomicon |
13:52.47 | ImpyDroid2 | he meant |
13:52.49 | ImpyDroid2 | even |
13:54.16 | Monet | While I admit his comment is badass. |
13:54.39 | ImpyDroid2 | He was also asked about the usage of mechas in the Russian army |
13:54.45 | ImpyDroid2 | He did not rule that out |
13:55.14 | Monet | The event does feel like when atheists call God a "wish-granting old man in the sky" |
13:57.37 | OluapPlayer | Every day for the last few days, at least one fly gets into my room and refuses to leave |
13:57.41 | OluapPlayer | It's getting annoying now |
13:57.59 | Monet | ImpyDroid: Russia throws the gauntlet down for challenging whoever wins the Japan vs USA mecha duel |
13:59.00 | Monet | ImpyDroid2: I just found out about the darksaber |
13:59.07 | Monet | https://youtu.be/-IbQQxBxtu8?t=17s my reaction to it |
14:06.11 | Monet | I like my Star Wars swords interlaced with cortosis |
14:08.55 | ImpyDroid2 | Darksabers look cool |
14:13.30 | Monet | While I do cry bullshit, I get the cool factor |
14:13.50 | Monet | It's just really hard to look at them and not see a reskinned vibroblade. |

15:04.54 | Groxkiller98 | One of my new characters is still a draft. The other is now canon - though needs tweaks, and some action. |
15:05.20 | Groxkiller98 | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Captain:Tana%27Suloni http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/User:Groxkiller98/Drafts/Characters/Nu%27Vex |
15:05.44 | Groxkiller98 | Hachi gave me some critique on Tana'Suloni. Need to add that. >_> |
15:10.59 | Groxkiller98 | Can you guys give me some thoughts? |
15:23.57 | Groxkiller98 | ...No? |
15:25.04 | dino82_ | shesounds like an interessting character |
15:25.08 | dino82_ | with three eyes eh? |
15:25.25 | dino82_ | and a dislike for bugs :d |
15:26.22 | Groxkiller98 | She has four eyes. One is discolored. |
15:26.26 | ImpyDroid2 | I just learned what is French for "to squat" |
15:26.31 | ImpyDroid2 | My education is complete now |
15:26.47 | Groxkiller98 | XD |
15:27.10 | Groxkiller98 | The Mithadorn-Xilic conflict was a big part of Mithadorn history. |
15:27.51 | Groxkiller98 | So was their animosity with the Drakear Remnant, but External left the wiki. :( |
15:31.43 | Groxkiller98 | A shame really, that he went. |
15:31.56 | dino82_ | interessting :D |
15:32.18 | Groxkiller98 | Thanks! ^_^ |
15:34.45 | Groxkiller98 | I just need to give her and her squad some things to shoot at. |
15:43.37 | Groxkiller98 | Also, I'm gonna try make some firearms in Spore tonight, for use in some pictures.# |
15:44.29 | dino82_ | to shoot at? |
15:44.33 | dino82_ | like bugs or enemies? |
15:44.36 | Groxkiller98 | Enemies. XD |
15:44.47 | Groxkiller98 | Also, going to try make an interior image of Fiction:Dakasha_Station |
15:44.54 | Groxkiller98 | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Dakasha_Station |
15:47.53 | Groxkiller98 | It's gonna be big enough to fit several cruisers inside comfortably. |
15:49.25 | Groxkiller98 | Anyone got any Andromedean powers that could have a reasonable conflict with the Mithadorn? |
15:50.22 | Monet | Andromeda' fairly quiet |
15:50.32 | Groxkiller98 | Yeah. |
15:50.53 | Groxkiller98 | The only conflict I had was with a bunch of alien explorers in the end of things. |
15:51.05 | Groxkiller98 | Since the Xilic arrived and almost immediately ended up at war. |
15:54.10 | Groxkiller98 | Maybe I should do a few joke pages for one of my charcters. |
15:54.14 | Groxkiller98 | characters* |
15:54.43 | Groxkiller98 | Something like... http://www.scp-wiki.net/the-things-dr-bright-is-not-allowed-to-do-at-the-foundation |
15:55.51 | dino82_ | oh wow that is a big space station :D |
15:55.54 | Groxkiller98 | :D |
15:56.29 | Groxkiller98 | It's supposed to be a substitute for the two uninhabitable planets. |
15:56.37 | dino82_ | the mithadorn can always get involved in conflicts with others as well besides those just inside Andormeda |
15:57.09 | Monet | One of the benefits of AGC membership |
15:57.14 | Monet | PAE* |
15:57.35 | Groxkiller98 | Like? |
15:57.59 | dino82_ | I don't know. Perhaps explorers who cross unknowingly Mithadorn borders or so |
15:58.07 | dino82_ | perhaps not a full wat but a series of incidents |
15:58.12 | dino82_ | depends on what you wish or desire I guess :D |
15:58.33 | Groxkiller98 | I was thinking of the ones that benefit the PAE. XD |
15:59.17 | Monet | What about other kinds of stories: Exploration, diplomacy travel, etc. |
15:59.59 | dino82_ | yeah |
16:00.01 | Groxkiller98 | Those also work. |
16:00.12 | dino82_ | that is also possible, perhaps the Mithadorn venture beyond their borders |
16:00.13 | Groxkiller98 | They did have some interaction with France. |
16:00.19 | dino82_ | they will encounter eventually someone who disagrees with the, |
16:00.20 | Groxkiller98 | They do. |
16:00.29 | Groxkiller98 | It's mentioned on their page. |
16:01.01 | dino82_ | oh I see! Overlooked that :D |
16:01.22 | dino82_ | the Gigaquadrant is a big place with lots of less friendly empires |
16:02.28 | Groxkiller98 | Yeah, but the Mithadorn are only really capable of wandering around Andromeda. |
16:02.46 | Groxkiller98 | And are too scared of the Dominion to poke around anywhere near them. |
16:02.56 | ImpyDroid2 | Gah now I am reminded why the Fictionverse is more difficult to write |
16:03.12 | Groxkiller98 | XD |
16:03.21 | Groxkiller98 | I need to go for a bit. Will log back on later. |
16:03.42 | ImpyDroid2 | It has less rules and technology can do pretty everything, I have to come up with reasons why problems cannot be overcome instantly |
16:08.54 | dino82_ | I love the Fiction Universe |
16:09.04 | dino82_ | a perfect mix of sci-fi, fiction, fantasy etc |
16:09.14 | dino82_ | anything is possible if we want :D |
16:09.46 | Hachiman | I wouldn't say 'fantasy' personally other than the inhabitants of the Quadrants but that's just me |
16:10.40 | Monet | We have demons |
16:10.46 | Monet | But they're mostly inactive. |
16:11.18 | dino82_ | Yeah demons are fantasy :D And yeah, the Quadrant have quite a bit of magic and fantasy |
16:11.19 | OluapPlayer | It's definitely science fantasy when I get involved |
16:11.21 | dino82_ | I love fantasy |
16:15.25 | ImpyDroid2 | These infinite possibilities makes things a bit difficult sometimes |
16:15.38 | ImpyDroid2 | The Fantasyverse is more grounded in that regard |
16:15.53 | ImpyDroid2 | You always know what one can do and what one cannot |
16:16.41 | Hachiman | I think I've said before that I like working within boundaries |
16:16.48 | Hachiman | It's more fun to do |
16:17.09 | ImpyDroid2 | ^ That |
16:17.30 | ImpyDroid2 | Like one thinks of a good obstacle that the heroes could overcome somehow |
16:17.49 | ImpyDroid2 | Then one realises "hell with T2 technology one could simply teleport through it" |

16:18.19 | Charles_Murray | Hey |
16:18.30 | dino82_ | hi |
16:18.56 | Hachiman | And then you think "oh I'll just a teleportation jammer" and then you think "but the heroes have something to jam a teleportation jammer or make them obsolete with Essence" |
16:19.06 | dino82_ | I like the endless possibilities and makes nice story to find solutions |
16:19.21 | dino82_ | those "obstacles" can make interessting story or be overcome by users working together |
16:19.25 | dino82_ | though it is a bit widespread sometimes haha |
16:22.45 | Monet | This is why I find explaining helps |
16:22.59 | dino82_ | yeah! |
16:23.20 | Hachiman | Don't get what you mean by that |
16:23.28 | Hachiman | Explaining is something people always do |
16:23.30 | Monet | A teleportation jammer jammer for instance, how does it jam the scrambling signal? |
16:23.53 | Hachiman | I was only partially joking |
16:24.13 | OluapPlayer | Story devolves into who is in control of the teleportation jammer jammer jammer jammer jammer jammer jammer |
16:24.45 | Monet | ^ Why I find explaining helps |
16:26.52 | Monet | Technology is about the techniques, skills and tools to solve a problem. |
16:28.39 | dino82_ | I find the telportation jammer jammer jammer jammer thingy a bit jamming my understanding :P |
16:29.18 | Hachiman | I mean, same can be said of a respectable fantasy story |
16:29.19 | dino82_ | oh have diner |

17:40.11 | dino82_ | france is drawn in anotehr conflict? |
17:40.18 | Groxkiller98 | Everyone is? |
17:40.22 | Monet | Xho's contemplated it several times |
17:40.34 | Groxkiller98 | Like... If the Dominion woke up, I think we're all screwed. |
17:40.41 | Monet | Basically Dominion going full on the march = everyone gangs up |
17:41.16 | Groxkiller98 | Yeah. |
17:41.27 | OluapPlayer | Dominion wakes up -> something something mary sues and explosions -> Dominion goes back to sleep |
17:41.39 | Charles_Murray | dino82_ only in jest |
17:41.50 | Groxkiller98 | "Oh dear lord, the Dominion woke up! Everybody run!" "Nah, we can take them." "We can?" "Yeah! Gang up!" |
17:42.20 | Groxkiller98 | What if they remained as an active threat thought? |
17:42.29 | OluapPlayer | The setting would end |
17:42.32 | dino82_ | @Chalres: Ah ok haha |
17:42.37 | OluapPlayer | A faction of the Dominion's nature can't remain active much less win |
17:42.50 | Groxkiller98 | Well, yeah. But, if a small part of them did? |
17:43.11 | Groxkiller98 | Maybe they worked along the lines of small proxy factions instead of themselves? |
17:43.19 | OluapPlayer | "small parts" of the Dominion have always been active |
17:43.22 | Charles_Murray | Sounds like what they've been doing |
17:44.06 | Tek0516 | Last time they really woke up it destroyed almost all of the universe. |
17:44.19 | OluapPlayer | That was before the Dominion |
17:44.26 | Groxkiller98 | Wasn't that what killed all but seven galaxies? |
17:44.37 | OluapPlayer | That was before the Dominion |

17:58.21 | dino82_ | yup |
17:58.45 | dino82_ | especially now while the Gigaquadrant is a bit fractured and unified organisations like the SSA and Onuris are defunct |
18:00.04 | Monet | It still has GITO and various galactic governments |
18:02.49 | Groxkiller98_ | But still, if they wake up, we have a problem. |
18:03.47 | Monet | It all depends on Xho really. |
18:03.47 | dino82_ | @Monet: Yeah and the Xonexi and the Accord and the Initiative are all smaller less unified organisations |
18:03.50 | OluapPlayer | They're only a problem if you want your fiction to be threatened by it |
18:08.45 | Monet | dino82_: One world orders are hard, honestly. |
18:09.30 | dino82_ | @Monet: haha that is true :D |
18:17.12 | Charles_Bot | They don't really need to be unified to work together |
18:17.16 | Charles_Bot | I mean |
18:17.20 | Charles_Bot | Look at the French |
18:17.24 | dino82_ | Well, they do if they want to survive |
18:17.30 | dino82_ | no one can stand alone against the might of the Xhoddies |
18:18.46 | Charles_Bot | Yeah, which means that one way or another they will work together |
18:19.02 | Charles_Bot | The real danger is cost shirking |
18:19.57 | Charles_Bot | Where one part of the universe might not be *wholly unhappy* if the another rival part were to take the blunt of the casualties and the damage |
18:21.43 | dino82_ | true |
18:23.28 | Monet | Which might be the case. |
18:24.45 | Monet | If some great power rises in Xonexi and starts hammering the Board of Six, would the Initiative be that concerned? |
18:24.54 | Monet | Seven* |
18:25.55 | Charles_Bot | Answer: The Rambo have supported such a rising great power already :P |
18:28.31 | Technobliterator | no guys you're wrong, the Loron can stand up to the Xhodocto and win on their own, they have before |
18:28.33 | Technobliterator | it must be true |

18:30.17 | dino82_ | @monet: Depends on what power that would be Monet. If it were the Xhodocot then yes. If it would threaten the safety of the Draconid, DCPand TIAF as well |
18:30.20 | dino82_ | considering they are still allies |
18:30.33 | dino82_ | and are valuable to RN and the safety of the gigaquadrant |
18:30.58 | Hachiman | Xhodocto cannot be bothered with Gigaquadrantic politics so they just avoid it like the plague |
18:31.09 | Hachiman | Well, they cannot be bothered with most things honestly |
18:31.13 | Technobliterator | That is a pretty neat layout :o |
18:31.19 | Technobliterator | URO would be happy to have a closer relationship |
18:31.38 | Charles_Bot | France - yey :D |
18:33.02 | Technobliterator | nice section, Oluap |
18:33.03 | Charles_Bot | Hachiman : More like they don't need it; when you have overwhelming power on your side, why would you bother with delicate structures and agreements if you can just crush everything |
18:33.15 | Technobliterator | So this is how Baptarion and Hachi join the good guy team? |
18:33.59 | Hachiman | I've said before that Vyutrin looks like he's gonna be an interesting character as Baptarion's boss |
18:34.17 | Hachiman | I don't think Baptarion had a boss figure in the original |
18:34.24 | Hachiman | Other than Thea |
18:34.24 | OluapPlayer | He didn't |
18:34.33 | OluapPlayer | Baptarion was the military commander, which never made sense |
18:34.52 | OluapPlayer | And Baptarion and Hachi have been part of the good guy team for ages already |
18:34.56 | Monet | "Let's put a scientist in charge of an army" |
18:35.22 | OluapPlayer | You're expected to have at least some scientific knowledge in the Collective |
18:35.28 | OluapPlayer | So your sentence isn't wrong |
18:35.33 | Hachiman | To be fair, you're expected to be a scienti-- |
18:35.34 | Hachiman | Oh |
18:36.54 | Monet | Doesn't surprise me. |
18:37.58 | Hachiman | Collective is a technocracy of sorts last time I recall |
18:38.06 | Monet | Chances are the average level of knowledge in the developed parts of a T-3/T-2 society is going to put the level of such in the modern world to shame |
18:38.15 | Charles_Bot | OluapPlayer Hachiman reminds me of this: https://youtu.be/R1dy44jV8EM |
18:38.21 | OluapPlayer | It is a technocracy in every way shape and form |
18:38.27 | Hachiman | hur |
18:38.28 | OluapPlayer | Literally in the page |
18:38.48 | Monet | Back in the the 1900s (I think) the mechanics of magnetism was something you learned in university. |
18:38.56 | Hachiman | I said 'of sorts' because it was governed by a constitutional monarch until recently |
18:39.03 | OluapPlayer | The position used to belong to Arberkul. Baptarion was elevated to his post as an emergency as all other candidates were busy at the home territory. Presumably the Vengeful Claw |
18:39.16 | OluapPlayer | with the* |
18:39.36 | Charles_Bot | Start about about 1:00 |
18:39.53 | Hachiman | I remember that part of Pirates of Penzance |
18:39.58 | Hachiman | Always managed to get stuck in my head |
18:40.00 | OluapPlayer | Now the Collective has sent a representative of the Royal Guard to take care of the problem, which essentially means they want the Devourer's Chosen completely annihilated |
18:40.16 | OluapPlayer | and are putting all of their focus on making that happen |
18:41.17 | Hachiman | The Collective's Royal Guard, led by the Great Vyutrin |
18:42.32 | Hachiman | Considering the Royal Guard constitutes the most elite military unit in the Collective, I imagine that Baptarion's in for a hard time |
18:43.01 | Hachiman | Both because I imagine Vyutrin and his lot to be kind of hardasses and the fact the Guard would logically be dealing with the most dangerous shit up close and personal |
18:46.58 | dino82_ | o gotto go for a while |
18:46.59 | dino82_ | bye bye |
18:47.04 | OluapPlayer | Vyutrin isn't a leader of the Guard. he's the equivalent of a sergeant |
18:47.27 | Hachiman | Ah |
18:47.30 | OluapPlayer | Jerkon is the leader of the Guard |
18:48.03 | OluapPlayer | I imagine Vyutrin is a veteran of the Marinox war so yeah, he's battle-hardened |
18:48.09 | Monet | Wouldn't it be better to send a captain? |
18:48.28 | OluapPlayer | His title is literally Royal Captain |
18:48.34 | Hachiman | kek |
18:48.53 | Monet | I got confused when you said sergeant. |
18:49.48 | OluapPlayer | I don't imagine the Guard has much hierarchy. There's the mooks, the captains, something in between, the admirals and the marechal who's the head honcho |
18:50.17 | Hachiman | The thing in between is probably lieutenant or some similar rank |
18:50.41 | Hachiman | That's one thing, actually; where did you get "marechal" from? |
18:50.44 | OluapPlayer | There aren't a lot of them around to have a big hierarchy ladder |
18:50.52 | OluapPlayer | Portuguese translation for "marshall" |
18:50.55 | Hachiman | Ah |
18:52.17 | OluapPlayer | Herquie is an admiral. So was Koluap until he went kaput. Someone else has since taken the position, probably |
18:54.31 | Hachiman | Would Vyutrin still be around in the 2800s? |
18:54.47 | OluapPlayer | Yes |
18:55.36 | Monet | The way I work out the number of officers is work out how many subordinates a rank would command over |
18:56.39 | Monet | E.g. a sergeant commands a squad of eight, 10 sergeants answer to a corporal, a lieutenant would have command over 25 colonels. |
19:10.05 | Tek0516 | Ugh. So the workers doing a bunch of annoyingly loud work above us for the past week and a half need to come in and do work to our apartment for it tomorrow. >.< |
19:17.32 | NeonPanda | Monet: did you get corporal and sergeant mixed up? |
19:18.01 | Monet | Possibly |
19:26.02 | DanzaDelMondo | OluapPlayer: It makes sense for the Guard to have a smaller hierarchy |
19:26.08 | DanzaDelMondo | LEss complex one that is |
19:26.26 | DanzaDelMondo | As a small elite force they have less need of it |
19:27.15 | DanzaDelMondo | AFAIK guard officers IRL often have relatively low-ranked titles but count as higher-ranked ones because they are elites in general |
19:27.23 | DanzaDelMondo | relatively low ranks |
19:28.58 | Hachiman | I mean, I just like fancy hierarchy titles |
19:29.19 | NeonPanda | typically speaking it's their administrative authority that causes the disparity, rather than the rank |
19:29.56 | DanzaDelMondo | Hachiman: Wait, until recently? |
19:30.00 | DanzaDelMondo | Maryah isn't in charge anymore? |
19:30.19 | OluapPlayer | You're a week late |
19:30.28 | DanzaDelMondo | thefuckwhathappenedwhenwhattheactualfuck |
19:30.38 | Hachiman | DanzaDelMondo: She's still in charge or in an advisory position afaik but the structure of the Collective's government has been reformed |
19:30.46 | DanzaDelMondo | Oh |
19:31.01 | OluapPlayer | Check UDB |
19:31.15 | DanzaDelMondo | Oh |
19:32.04 | DanzaDelMondo | President, right |
19:32.37 | DanzaDelMondo | This reminds me |
19:32.51 | DanzaDelMondo | Windey was regent pre-Maryah's adulthood, right? |
19:34.23 | NeonPanda | bbl |
19:34.37 | OluapPlayer | Windey led the Spinkers |
19:35.07 | DanzaDelMondo | Did they have a proper regent? |
19:35.20 | DanzaDelMondo | Like |
19:35.35 | DanzaDelMondo | Who attended state meetings and the like? |
19:35.40 | DanzaDelMondo | Who was head of state? |
19:36.02 | OluapPlayer | Windey |
19:36.31 | OluapPlayer | I assume you're asking about Spinkers |
19:37.58 | DanzaDelMondo | I mean Indocs in general |
19:38.23 | OluapPlayer | Then no, the heads of state were the Supreme Advisors |
19:38.32 | DanzaDelMondo | So like a collective head of state |
19:38.34 | DanzaDelMondo | right |

19:43.46 | Monet | Thinking on GW's infamous Storm of Chaos campaign, I suppose one way it could have been controlled is the battles recorded could have been ones in GW shops |
19:45.21 | Monet | Not the most efficient way of recording battles as GW shops tend to have only 1-2 tables depending on size |
19:46.26 | Hachiman | Isn't that the campaign where Archaeon, THE Chaos Champion, had his groin obliterated and headbutted to unconsciousness by Grimgor |
19:47.07 | DanzaDelMondo | Yep |
19:48.45 | Monet | That was their attempt to fix the campaign |
19:49.53 | Monet | Where due to thousands of anonymous (and importantly a huge number of made-up) reports of Greenskin victories, Grimgor and his boyz rampaged across the world. |
19:50.16 | Hachiman | >made-up |
19:50.22 | Hachiman | I'd like to see a source for that please |

19:55.34 | Monet | Grimgor's famous ambush might be in reference to how in the campaign the Greenskins basically kicked Archaeon and his warriors every time they poked their heads out of the Chaos Wastes. |

20:46.22 | Xho | I'm getting too old and jaded to care at this stage |
20:47.46 | Charles_Murray | dino82_ What Monet said; Relations are deteriorating due to the Talven buildup, but they might pick right back up if negotiations are successful |
20:48.08 | dino82_ | Clear for me :D |
20:51.42 | Hachiman | Sorry was eating |
20:52.09 | Hachiman | Xho: Don't think so, he just doesn't like talk about Muslims and real world stuff plus he's been having a shitty day regardless |

20:53.01 | Xho | Shitty day as in |
20:53.42 | Hachiman | Shitty day as in he's been bored through most of it plus just general toxic vibes wherever he visits on the web |
20:54.20 | Charles_Murray | dino82_ Major difference is that France and the Rambo (at least for the time being) are engaged in a sustainable rivalry which has the potential of getting out of hand, but not nearly as much as the Talven situation, which could escalate to war really quickly. |
20:54.34 | Xho | Isn't the internet just generally toxic |
20:54.37 | Hachiman | I'm just hoping he doesn't read the logs because THAT might upset him a little bit though |
20:54.50 | dino82_ | @Charles: Because both side does'nt really want to go to war |
20:54.59 | Charles_Murray | Same think in the Talven situation |
20:55.03 | Charles_Murray | Thing* |
20:55.05 | Monet | Xho: Unfortunately but eh, human nature. |
20:55.40 | Xho | Well if it's any moral justification I can't quite function on a nice basis atm |
20:55.46 | Charles_Murray | but structural factors make it much more likely, given that unless an agreement is reached -now-, the Talva will -need- to carry out a preemptive strike or lose everything |
20:56.02 | Xho | Family's dying, I'm not feeling great, I have work stress and uni preparation all at once |
