00:05.45 | Wormy_ | How'd it go? |
00:06.17 | Wormy_ | I'm comparing thesis ideas since I've got to choose a supervisor |
00:09.46 | Monet | 77%. I was quite descriptive though maybe a little too interested in the subject matter. |
00:13.33 | Monet | I tried discussing Baudrillard and hyperrealism but according to feedback may have come across as not understanding how dark Baudrillard's view was. |
00:16.04 | Monet | Video games are a pretty controversial medium. |

00:32.02 | Wormy_ | <PROTECTED> |
00:32.39 | Wormy_ | One of my thesis ideas is to follow an addition question I had from that.. But I;m struggling to come up with an experiment for this huge topic |
00:33.30 | Wormy_ | Another involves AI and artificial evolution, and I have a clearer idea for experiments |
00:33.50 | Wormy_ | But I feel so committed to my last year's work |
00:45.44 | Monet | Hmm though choice |
00:53.41 | Monet | Wormy_: It might be better to explore the project you have a clearer idea for. |
00:54.13 | Wormy_ | Yeah |

08:31.13 | Methanogen | Hello |
08:31.39 | Hachiman | Hi |
08:32.12 | Methanogen | Ah hi Hachi, going well? |
08:32.18 | Hachiman | Yeah, things go fine |
08:32.26 | Hachiman | How about yourself? |
08:32.31 | Methanogen | Good |
08:32.44 | Methanogen | Expanding upon the religion of the Eriaroons a bit |
08:33.41 | Methanogen | As always, still some work to do |
08:33.42 | Hachiman | Ah nice |
08:34.55 | Methanogen | Here's a question for you: when would a fiction empire page be considered "completed"? I'm guessing most of them are getting perpetually updated as time goes and wars happen etc |
08:35.41 | Hachiman | I mean, I'd say it's essentially completed when you fill out all the necessary stuff in your sections |
08:35.54 | Hachiman | When there's nothing left to add until you want to expand or revise later |
08:35.58 | Methanogen | I see |
08:36.50 | Methanogen | In that case I'm actually somewhat close-ish sorta maybe. The main thing I want to expand upon is history, with relations and quotes also being good things to expand on but rather dependent on external factors |
08:37.06 | Hachiman | Yeah, that's fair |
08:37.51 | Methanogen | Some empires have immensely hugely long histories just from all the events they've been a part of |
08:38.22 | Hachiman | Yeah, that's cus they've been around a while |
08:38.28 | Methanogen | True, they have |
08:38.28 | Hachiman | And have had a lot of in-fiction influence |
08:38.54 | Methanogen | Being new, I mainly will end up using historical events that occurred just on the homeworlds of the species pretty much |
08:39.32 | Methanogen | True |
08:39.46 | Methanogen | I have exactly zero fiction influence beyond my own stuff currently |
08:40.11 | Hachiman | Well, that's just cus you're new :p |
08:40.50 | Methanogen | True, and my empires haven't actually done anything yet, which hopefully will soon change |
08:40.59 | Hachiman | I'm sure that with the right contact and cooperation, you'll get more influence as time goes on |
08:41.18 | Methanogen | Hopefully yes |
08:42.11 | Methanogen | In the meantime I'll continue to expand on my stuff |
08:43.25 | Methanogen | I've still got to elaborate in history for sure |

11:28.09 | Ghelae | I'm okay; how about you? |
11:28.35 | Methanogen | Good, expanding on Eriroon religion |
11:28.56 | Methanogen | *Eriaroon |
11:31.07 | Methanogen | Still avoiding writing history stuff though I'll inevitably have to |
11:33.26 | Ghelae | The history that you've got on the page should be sufficient. Let any further details come when you're inspired to write them, rather than trying to force them. |
11:33.42 | Methanogen | Thanks for the advice |
11:33.59 | Methanogen | I guess I'll save writing that for when I actually have ideas for it then |
11:34.26 | Ghelae | Geography and climate are good starting points for figuring out how different peoples will interact with each other. That's presumably quite difficult for the oceans of an ice world. |
11:34.46 | Methanogen | True |
11:34.54 | Methanogen | Especially when many natural barriers can just be swam over |
11:35.14 | Methanogen | So it's a very different environment to an earth-like world |

11:36.55 | Methanogen | Yorchi would have a substantially more similar geography but I still have little idea on how their history would go |
11:38.23 | Methanogen | So I'll save writing history for later on I suppose |
11:39.35 | Monet | for species maybe keep broad |
11:39.59 | Methanogen | Does that make it a lot easier? |
11:40.06 | Monet | imagine trying to condense human history into four paragraphs |
11:40.45 | Ghelae | Why imagine? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human#Transition_to_civilization |
11:41.05 | Methanogen | Humans existed then fought each other for thousands of years while building various things to destroy and fight with and eventually this happened until today |
11:42.12 | Methanogen | But yeah it's very vague |
11:42.33 | Ghelae | For a species, that section of that page is the level of detail you need. For a nation, however, you'll generally want more. |

11:42.47 | Wormydroid | Hi |
11:42.52 | Methanogen | Since I'm doing a nation, that's where the issue happens |
11:42.54 | Methanogen | Hi there |
11:42.57 | Ghelae | Mainly because you usually don't have to condense twelve millennia into a readable page. |
11:42.59 | Ghelae | Hello. |
11:43.37 | Methanogen | So far I only have a vague outline of modern history, as in what happened after the actual unified society was founded |
11:44.14 | Ghelae | When you're describing a nation that unifies a species, you're more like describing the species, with the main history ending with a description of how they unified. |
11:44.22 | Ghelae | Then you're onto that modern history. |
11:44.34 | Methanogen | I see |
11:44.53 | Ghelae | Because the nation doesn't really exist before unification. So your prior history is that of the species as a whole. |
11:44.58 | Methanogen | True |
11:45.21 | Methanogen | Does that mean I should put it on my species page? Or not because labelled that "biology" specifically? |
11:46.53 | Methanogen | Also, I still have to actually come up with this pre-unification history |
11:47.18 | Ghelae | It could go on the species page, with a "see also" link at the start of the nation's history page. |
11:47.29 | Methanogen | Hmmm I see |
11:48.59 | Methanogen | I'll have to figure out the history since I actually don't have much of one yet even in my mind |

13:16.02 | Hachiman | Hi |
13:16.13 | Wormy_ | hi |
13:16.22 | Hachiman | Wormy_: Just started reading Ultima properly today |
13:17.08 | Wormy_ | I see, I thought you was getting through the book really quick |
13:17.48 | Hachiman | Got to the part where the druid informs trierarchus Kerys about detecting the Tatania in their system |
13:18.07 | Hachiman | Or at least, I presume it's the Tatania |
13:18.35 | Hachiman | Also, Baxter more clearly defines that Earthshine and Yuri are both Braemann in Ultima |
13:19.32 | Hachiman | "And he'd told her his true name, or one of them: Robert Braemann. He'd known Beth would understand the significance." |
13:29.59 | Wormy_ | I was sure he was the grandfather, did Proxima explicitly state Yuri's real name was Robert Braemann? |
13:31.34 | Hachiman | It didn't |
13:31.44 | Hachiman | At least, this is the conclusion I'm personally getting |
13:34.12 | Hachiman | I don't actually know for sure; it's just that other reviewers have said that this is the impression they got as well once they realized why Beth was shocked to hear one of Earthshine's name |
13:40.32 | Wormy_ | It may be in Ultima, I don't know, but Earthshine's past is revealed |
13:40.55 | Wormy_ | I can't remember whether it was explicitly stated or whether I just got a different impression |
13:41.03 | Hachiman | Ah |
13:41.28 | Hachiman | I'll have to read through in that case and see for myself |
13:41.39 | Wormy_ | Been since 2015 since I read it |

16:38.31 | Imperios | >e Vila instead use shadow magic, a rather unusual hybrid of cryptomancy and umbramancy that gives its users the ability to create illusions and glamours, dominate minds and alter space and time. |
16:38.41 | Imperios | >Outside of their Source powers, the Vila also possess abilities typical of elves - affinity with nature, agility, long lifespan (that can be further prolonged through time magic) and sharp eyesight. |

19:07.22 | Wormy_ | hi |
19:07.56 | Imperios | Hachiman Wormy_: https://2ch.hk/po/src/21692261/14908955302330.jpg There's a building in Kiev that looks like a frowning face |
19:08.19 | Imperios | Oh wait it is in Kalilingrad |
19:08.19 | Imperios | Nvm |
19:09.05 | Xpu | [Insert Soviet Russia Joke Here |
19:09.08 | Xpu | ] |
19:09.11 | Xpu | man i sucl |
19:09.12 | Wormy_ | looks depressing |
19:09.13 | Xpu | see |
19:10.38 | Monet | Wormy_: Soviet-style brutalism at its finest. |
19:12.22 | Monet | Seriously though why were the Soviets so fascinated with such depressing architecture? |
19:13.11 | Xpu | Concrete being a wonder material during the 60s I guess |
19:14.03 | Wormy_ | I look at Soviet era buildings and think "oh that loos reminiscent", a lot of 60's era council blocks look rather alike |
19:14.56 | Monet | It was useful when restoring the infrastructure destroyed by the War, not going to lie. |
19:15.20 | Monet | But the International style was ridiculed for its bland appearance. |
19:17.54 | Imperios | Monet: What period are we talking about? |
19:18.02 | Imperios | Lenin, Stalin, or Khruschev and everyone after him? |
19:18.19 | Imperios | Each had their own unique style associated with them |
19:18.34 | Monet | Brutalism was prominent between the 50s and 70s |
19:19.29 | Imperios | Ah so you mean after Stalin |
19:20.00 | Imperios | Basically from Khruschev onwards, aesthetics were sacrificed for the sake of maximum efficiency and availability |
19:20.20 | Monet | "You have to give this much to the Luftwaffe, When it knocked down our buildings, it didn't replace them with anything more offensive than rubble." - Prince Charles, 1987 |
19:20.53 | Imperios | In some cases, it was a necessary evil |
19:21.47 | Imperios | For example, Khruschev managed to succesfully relocate millions of Soviet citizens from barracks and communal apartments into individual flats |
19:22.04 | Imperios | Problem is, in order to do so he had to cover every Soviet city with |
19:22.51 | Monet | A similar thing happened in London during the 60s so fair point. |
19:22.52 | Imperios | http://img-fotki.yandex.ru/get/5702/yurilobanow.21/0_4fb00_27457315_L.jpg Well, these things |
19:23.15 | Monet | The UK by comparison, built these http://vignette1.wikia.nocookie.net/ukhousing/images/f/f5/Red_Road_f.jpg/revision/latest?cb=20091228224309 |
19:23.28 | Monet | http://l7.alamy.com/zooms/48f8412744ed483e91def2f856dedb82/a-1960s-tower-block-against-a-blue-sky-ah1keg.jpg |
19:23.45 | Imperios | These look more like our Gorbachev-era houses |
19:24.24 | Imperios | http://photos.wikimapia.org/p/00/02/06/16/10_big.jpg |
19:24.34 | Monet | Weird |
19:24.45 | Monet | By Gorbachev these tower block were well out of favour. |
19:25.22 | Imperios | Yeah but >Russia |
19:25.25 | Xpu | Russia: Master of BETON |
19:25.43 | Monet | True, true. |
19:25.54 | Xpu | What exactly is the reasoning behind concrete being 'beton' in Russian anyway |
19:26.05 | Imperios | >Russia |
19:26.13 | Imperios | >keeping up with the time |
19:26.15 | Wormy_ | Imperios: http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2013/06/11/article-2339387-0028737800000258-719_634x423.jpg http://i.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2012/09/06/article-2199130-0000849C00000CB2-422_634x425.jpg https://edinburghnapiernews.files.wordpress.com/2008/10/barrowfield2.jpg |
19:26.21 | Imperios | Xpu: you mean the etymology? |
19:26.26 | Xpu | sà |
19:26.31 | Imperios | It's just another term for concrete, I think French also uses it |
19:26.46 | Monet | "Beton" is French for Concrete yes. |
19:26.52 | Imperios | https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/B%C3%A9ton Yeah I was right |
19:27.07 | Imperios | It's probably one of the many words Russians stole from the French |
19:27.25 | Imperios | > Borrowing from Latin bitumen |
19:27.29 | Imperios | There you go |
19:27.37 | Monet | Brutalism comes from a term "Beton brut" or "Raw concrete" coined be Le Corbusier. |
19:27.58 | Imperios | Makes sense because concrete is kind of like bitumen |
19:28.04 | Xho | Ah |
19:28.35 | *** join/#sporewiki Hachiman (4eca2a12@gateway/web/freenode/ip.78.202.42.18) |
19:28.49 | Hachiman | Fucking laptop runs worse than my fucking legless grandma |
19:29.44 | Monet | Well focusing on an architectural style that is cheap and quick to erect makes sense. |
19:29.59 | Imperios | Xho: Now that you mentioned the ancient world I got reminded of the question one of my friends gave me a while ago |
19:31.03 | Imperios | She asked me why even the oldest Egyptian statues were more lifelike than medieval Scandinavian art and sculpture, despite being much more ancient |
19:32.13 | Xho | aliens |
19:32.18 | Monet | It might just be a matter of style. |
19:32.46 | Xho | The Egyptians were present for longer and long before the Scandinavians |
19:33.01 | Monet | The ancient cultures were fascinated in making statues almost lifelike |
19:33.11 | Imperios | My explanation to her was something along the lines of "Germanic people were just fucking barbarians who could not sculpt shit" |
19:33.21 | Xho | Compare Egypt's statues up until whenever compared to Ancient Greece between 600 BC and 325 BC |
19:33.40 | Xho | Greece's advancement in sculptures between 600 BC - 325 BC is immense |
19:33.53 | Xho | Egypt had between 3000 BC - roughly 530 BC when the Persians took over |
19:34.13 | Xho | So 2500 years of artistic movements really |
19:34.50 | Monet | When hey were freshly made that statues would have looked like this https://i1.wp.com/moco-choco.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/04/true-colors-of-greek-statues-4.jpg?resize=630%2C526&ssl=1 |
19:34.52 | Xho | The Greeks would have had a faster level of advancement since sculpture techniques were becoming more advanced |
19:35.09 | Imperios | Also the level of technological advancement does not always translate to artistic development |
19:35.31 | Imperios | There were after all African nations who, while fairly primitive, created highly lifelike and developed sculptures |
19:35.39 | OluapPlayer | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:War_of_the_Ancient_Three#The_Full_Might_of_Borealis everyone shut up and check the conclusion of the Kondrakar arc |
19:35.49 | Imperios | Monet: Wait redhead romans |
19:36.06 | Monet | I think the hair's meant to be brown. |
19:36.47 | Imperios | Weird how the statue looks so pale compared to the Roman frescoes |
19:36.55 | Imperios | I suppose it is just the materials |
19:36.57 | Monet | It makes sense they'd be brightly coloured because dyes cost dosh and "look at my money!" |
19:37.19 | Xho | OluapPlayer: Hez - stupid snake should've just remained sleepin |
19:37.30 | Xho | Seriously though RIP to makman |
19:37.57 | OluapPlayer | He died as he lived exploding a hole through reality |
19:38.11 | Xho | Angazhar - hardcore |
19:38.24 | Xho | Imperios: It would ultimately depend on location |
19:38.41 | Xho | The Greeks advanced through bronzework and marble |
19:39.04 | Imperios | I thought the Romans were more into marble and Greeks into bronze, or vice versa, can't remember |
19:39.05 | Xho | Egyptians mostly through granite |
19:39.17 | Xho | The Greeks worked into bronze during the 400s BC |
19:39.22 | Xho | Or maybe 500s |
19:39.23 | Imperios | Yeah geography must have affected art as well |
19:39.34 | Hachiman | "The extragalactics within the allied forces, such as the Draconid Imperium, were quickly to recognize these ruins as being distinctly Dominatus-like in architecture; the ruins of the Drakodominatus Tyranny's Borealan colonies, lost decades ago in a war no one knew happened to an enemy no one knew about." |
19:39.37 | Hachiman | Beautiful |
19:39.38 | Imperios | What I find odd is that I never heard anything East Asian sculpture |
19:40.00 | Imperios | Hachiman: That's a bit offensive to GD12 hur |
19:40.05 | Imperios | *anything about |
19:40.11 | Xho | jade sculptures |
19:40.12 | Hachiman | I meant the way it was written |
19:40.16 | OluapPlayer | It isn't since it was his idea |
19:40.33 | Xho | Imperios: Buddha sculptures |
19:40.58 | Imperios | Hachiman: No I mean this passage is |
19:41.23 | Hachiman | Don't see how it's offensive |
19:41.32 | Imperios | Xho: http://www.metmuseum.org/-/media/Images/About%20The%20Met/Conservation%20and%20Scientific%20Research/Projects/Archived%20Objects%20Conservation/Chinese_Sculpture_Figure_1.jpg?la=en Seems Indian-inspired |
19:41.38 | Monet | It refers to the Dominatus colonies that were assimilated by the Junction. |
19:41.42 | Xho | But the Greeks went from granite in the 600s, marble throughout into Roman occupation and bronze around from the 500s |
19:41.58 | Monet | No one realised that such a campagin had happened. |
19:42.05 | Imperios | Ah |
19:42.11 | OluapPlayer | Yes |
19:42.19 | OluapPlayer | If only people would read the fiction I linked |
19:42.26 | Imperios | Actually wait |
19:42.35 | Imperios | The Terracotta Army |
19:42.36 | Imperios | Nevermind |
19:42.39 | Xho | doi |
19:43.03 | Hachiman | Also fucking hell those passages in the Maknagrius chapter |
19:43.08 | Imperios | http://www.ancient-china-history.com/images/chinese-art.jpg Ah these ugly as fuck things the mogu were based on |
19:43.14 | Hachiman | Was Lord-Padre kaiju-sized? |
19:43.30 | OluapPlayer | He was as large as Dalamadur |
19:43.34 | Hachiman | Jesus |
19:43.34 | OluapPlayer | So about the size of a mountain |
19:43.36 | Imperios | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chow_Chow |
19:43.43 | Imperios | >It is believed [4][5] that the Chow Chow is one of the native dogs used as the model for the Foo dog, the traditional stone guardians found in front of Buddhist temples and palaces. |
19:43.48 | Imperios | Holy fuck I can have a pet mogu |
19:43.51 | Monet | He coiled around the planet's largest mountai nwhere he meditated |
19:44.01 | OluapPlayer | Yeah, those are the mentioned spires |
19:44.03 | Xho | I like the short passage kind of style |
19:44.18 | Xho | It progresses things quickly and not too much effort required |
19:44.19 | Monet | Imperios: These statues were the inspiration for the guardians yeah |
19:44.25 | OluapPlayer | Clearly he was knocked into one of them and it stabbed through his body |
19:44.28 | Monet | While the Mogu themselves are basically Oni. |
19:44.29 | OluapPlayer | Which was probably quite nasty |
19:44.37 | Imperios | >âI serve He who was ancient when your Cold Ones were young. He who consumes hope and breaths out despair. He who presides over the fear, the hatred, the doubts of lesser beings. He is that which shall devour you all!â |
19:44.39 | Hachiman | What Maknagrius did and how he did it, alongside how you wrote it, are quite horrifying |
19:44.41 | Imperios | >He who consumes hope and breaths out despair. |
19:44.57 | Imperios | Wait so killing Shu'rimrodir will cause him to split into the Shu? |
19:45.06 | OluapPlayer | the shu of nightmares |
19:45.30 | Imperios | >the Dominion homeworld of Kondrak was a black sphere of evil upon the void of space, only superficially resembling a planet at this point |
19:45.34 | Wormy_ | <PROTECTED> |
19:45.47 | Imperios | So it was like a wormhole or something? |
19:46.06 | Wormy_ | <PROTECTED> |
19:46.09 | OluapPlayer | I imagine more like a Corruptus Overworld, except it wasn't alive |
19:46.12 | Wormy_ | *stroke |
19:46.19 | Xho | I have to say that section was nicely written |
19:46.27 | Xho | Has a dark poetry about it which is up my street |
19:46.50 | Hachiman | Aye |
19:46.57 | Hachiman | And the imagery you described is great as well |
19:47.01 | Imperios | Also holy fuck Alan the Viking |
19:47.13 | OluapPlayer | OH HELLO TYRANNOSAURUS ALAN |
19:47.15 | Imperios | Nice to finally see it in action |
19:47.20 | Hachiman | Shu'suvreca - ODIN'S PIZZA PLACE |
19:47.20 | Imperios | It is brutal too |
19:47.44 | Imperios | >This vortex, a permanent reminder of the threat of the Corruptus, would become known as the Eternal Wound and be forever supervised by the Kormacvar Legacy, who ensured demon incursions would not go far if they attempted to emerge from it. |
19:48.28 | Imperios | Now it only needs a Dominion commander who would hide there and attempt to invade Borealis while constnantly failing |
19:48.42 | OluapPlayer | yes, it's the Eye of Terror |
19:48.46 | OluapPlayer | but with more purple |
19:49.54 | Monet | And wasn't born by a galactic-scale orgy |
19:50.12 | OluapPlayer | Yes, in this case it was a nation-scale mass suicide |
19:50.29 | Hachiman | Dark |
19:50.49 | OluapPlayer | This marks 2/3 of the fiction done |
19:50.58 | OluapPlayer | now is the part with everyone's FAVORITE borealis fiction |
19:51.09 | Hachiman | Hachi - kill yourself Maknagrius - OKAY THEN |
19:51.19 | Imperios | Venoriel - FUCK YOU GARDEVOIRS |
19:51.22 | Imperios | FUCK YOU I SAUY |
19:51.25 | Imperios | *SAY |
19:51.42 | OluapPlayer | Rovegar - sheesh take us to a date first |
19:54.38 | Xho | hawt |
19:54.38 | OluapPlayer | Imperios: which reminds me you still didn't introduce the Divinarium to the war declaration |
19:54.55 | Imperios | Yeah I should add them too |
19:55.14 | Imperios | They're probably not going to fight as an independent force but together with the DI as part of the PAE |
19:55.25 | OluapPlayer | I assumed so |
19:56.07 | OluapPlayer | That being said I don't know how much extragalactic activity there'll be in this final part |
19:56.20 | OluapPlayer | It doesn't involve big extermination warfare like the Ganthorea and Kondrakar bits |
19:59.46 | Xho | Basically Maknagrius did a Mickey Rourke in Iron Man 2 and went "YOU LOSE" |
20:00.01 | OluapPlayer | Didn't watch that so I wouldn't know |
20:00.14 | Monet | I'm sure the Royal Intelligence Agency would be happy to combat the insurrection |
20:00.32 | Xho | Basically he plays a Russian guy who dies and initaties a detonation sequence for keks |
20:00.40 | OluapPlayer | In that case yes |
20:00.44 | OluapPlayer | As for the insurrection |
20:00.57 | OluapPlayer | I think the DI would rather help it than combat it |
20:01.00 | Imperios | If it involves covert activity, the Divinarium is likely to intervene |
20:01.05 | OluapPlayer | You'll see when I get there |
20:01.10 | Imperios | It excels at these operations after all |
20:01.14 | OluapPlayer | I need a little break after writing all of that |
20:01.46 | OluapPlayer | Imperios: Not gonna lie it's gonna be Suramar in space |
20:01.50 | OluapPlayer | So you should know what to expect |
20:01.52 | Imperios | AN ILLUSION |
20:01.59 | OluapPlayer | SOMETHING'S NOT QUITE RIGHT |
20:02.29 | OluapPlayer | From the introduction of the page |
20:02.30 | OluapPlayer | >the Rovegar people grew increasingly discontent with their heads of government |
20:03.11 | Xho | Now I'm imagining the Rovegar's government to be just heads |
20:03.21 | OluapPlayer | wow |
20:03.30 | OluapPlayer | Vileraz IV is just a head on a mechanical suit |
20:03.39 | Xho | I'M UNHAPPY WITH YOUR HEAD wow rude |
20:04.33 | Imperios | Xho: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m5YYv88y9jM |
20:04.41 | Imperios | OluapPlayer: Actually wait |
20:04.48 | Imperios | *Heads* of government? |
20:04.52 | Imperios | There's usually just one |
20:05.12 | Xho | Oh god |
20:05.17 | OluapPlayer | The whole government of the Matriarchy is rotten |
20:06.18 | Xho | rotten heads c |
20:06.21 | OluapPlayer | Vileraz has her allies, removing just her wouldn't fix all the problems |
20:06.44 | OluapPlayer | Granted she is definitely the most evil of the lot |
20:08.47 | Monet | In this case, "heads" refers to the government leadership in general |
20:08.53 | OluapPlayer | Yes |
20:09.08 | Imperios | Yeah just pointing that the term head of government is rather precise, it is a specific position |
20:09.14 | Imperios | I think "elites" would be a better word |
20:09.22 | OluapPlayer | I guess |
20:09.25 | Imperios | Of course I'm not forcing you to change anything |
20:09.50 | Imperios | Head of government = Prime minister/Chancellor/etc |
20:09.56 | Monet | Or simply "leadership" |
20:09.58 | Xho | I AM THE SENATE |
20:10.25 | OluapPlayer | Vileraz IV - tis treason then AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA |
20:10.26 | Imperios | That guy who's either the second in command of the country or its actual leader if the head of state does not have any power, like in Germany or the UK |
20:10.49 | Technobliterator | >the Rovegar people grew increasingly discontent with their heads of government |
20:10.53 | Technobliterator | Zaarkhun - <3 |
20:11.01 | OluapPlayer | hur |
20:11.07 | OluapPlayer | yeah dumba chek all the things i wrote |
20:11.24 | OluapPlayer | I mentioned the Vyronicia Fleet and Tuolog |
20:11.37 | Technobliterator | I will read, but I have a splitting headache right now |
20:11.49 | Imperios | OluapPlayer: Oh, and the end scene should involve Vileraz using a Taldar artifact to turn back time several times |
20:11.57 | Imperios | Or throwing fireballs |
20:12.00 | Imperios | I WILL MAKE ASHES OF YOU |
20:12.02 | OluapPlayer | hur |
20:12.11 | Imperios | Technobliterator: http://ntmynews.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/ancap-meme-generator.png Literally Zaarkhun |
20:12.46 | Xho | oh dear |
20:12.55 | Technobliterator | Oh, so the War of the Ancient Three is the final Borealis fiction |
20:12.57 | OluapPlayer | Zaarkhun wouldn't like the Rovegari insurrection though. They don't want anarchy, they just want a government not led by a megalomaniac madwoman |
20:13.21 | Xho | Final Borealis fiction eh |
20:13.23 | OluapPlayer | It's the final fiction I'll coordinate in the fictionverse |
20:13.27 | Xho | sad times |
20:13.31 | Monet | Oh that's what you mean |
20:13.46 | OluapPlayer | I'll still be around to participate in other people's stories |
20:13.51 | OluapPlayer | But I'll change my focus to the fantasyverse |
20:13.52 | Monet | RIA - 3000 credits and we can ensure the queen has an accident. |
20:13.56 | Technobliterator | Ah |
20:13.59 | Xho | Fantasyverse is better c |
20:14.25 | Xho | I kind of want to engage back in Tuuros again |
20:14.28 | Xho | But where exactly |
20:14.46 | OluapPlayer | So you don't have to worry about Ottzello, you can still make stories there as much as you want |
20:15.16 | Xho | Needs a Dominion retalitation for killing Maknagrius |
20:15.20 | Technobliterator | If this is the final fiction, we should probably conclude Billig's story as well |
20:15.21 | OluapPlayer | denied |
20:15.25 | Xho | neva |
20:15.39 | Xho | Hez would not take the death of one of his confidants sitting down |
20:15.43 | Imperios | Technobliterator: Billig dies from a heart attack |
20:15.44 | Imperios | The end |
20:15.47 | Technobliterator | :| |
20:15.53 | OluapPlayer | "should've done a diet eh" |
20:15.53 | Xho | Kitoruka would probably laugh but then again Kitoruka isn't a politician |
20:16.09 | OluapPlayer | Zaarkhun returns part deux: starring Billig's left leg |
20:16.15 | Technobliterator | Billig is still immortal due to the Time Secrets, I'm pretty sure |
20:16.28 | OluapPlayer | Billig lost the secrets but he turned into an undead |
20:16.29 | Xho | Santorakh - fat shit clearing up my table fuck off |
20:16.33 | OluapPlayer | So yeah he's kinda immortal |
20:16.34 | Technobliterator | Ah, yes |
20:16.42 | Imperios | So he just needs to be trapped |
20:16.57 | Monet | Maleus - Send me to Borealis. I'll turn Hypoborea into hyperthermia. |
20:17.10 | Imperios | Could be interesting to see Billig cooperate with the good guys against an even worse threat |
20:17.13 | OluapPlayer | Arkarixus - out the airlock with you |
20:17.22 | Xho | Angazhar - lol why borealis pick any galaxy lol |
20:17.28 | Monet | Maleus - If u can touch me. |
20:17.45 | Technobliterator | Billig has cooperated with the good guys in the past |
20:17.55 | Technobliterator | He hasn't done an evil thing in ages |
20:17.59 | Technobliterator | It's about time he does |
20:18.03 | Xho | The nasty thing about being Angazhar's servant is that retaliation doesn't need to be inflicted on Borealis to prove a point |
20:18.12 | OluapPlayer | You can if you want, but not in the Ancient Three war |
20:18.15 | OluapPlayer | It wouldn't fit there |

20:18.47 | Xho | Hez could incite a genocide on Mirus for instance and still call it payback for Mak's death |
20:18.50 | Xho | Hi |
20:18.59 | Methanogen | Hello |
20:19.10 | Technobliterator | I agree |
20:19.19 | Technobliterator | I should come up with a fiction set before that war |
20:19.33 | Xho | Death is a currency and Angazhar doesn't care where it comes from, just as long as it is a big cash injection |
20:19.38 | Imperios | Yeah but it should make sense for him |
20:19.44 | Imperios | He's not a card-carrying villain, he's a businessman |
20:19.47 | Imperios | OOH |
20:19.52 | Imperios | Billig could totally do something on Praestol |
20:19.54 | Imperios | It is his kind of plac |
20:19.56 | Imperios | e |
20:19.59 | Technobliterator | Sure :o |
20:20.14 | OluapPlayer | Billig dies because he's actually allergic to cat fur |
20:20.16 | Monet | Maleus - Then if you'll excuse me I have some back-payments to deliver. |
20:20.29 | Xho | Technobliterator: I was gonna suggest Billig goes into business with this guy http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Captain%3ATuk_Nijusi |
20:21.20 | Technobliterator | looks at the page |
20:21.24 | Technobliterator | Yup, definitely seems to fit |
20:21.54 | Imperios | I kind of set up a few possible plots on the page already |
20:22.29 | Imperios | The Gafra-Ramattius gang war, Northfire being creepy, the Rades cults, the Artharon-Radeon racism tensions |
20:22.30 | Imperios | Etc |
20:23.05 | Methanogen | *has no idea what any of this stuff is* |
20:23.20 | Xho | basically a whole load of assholes in fiction |
20:24.05 | OluapPlayer | I'll see if I can get the insurrection done soon. I'm eager to see how people will react to the ending |
20:24.08 | Methanogen | Ah I see |
20:24.59 | Technobliterator | OluapPlayer, just finished reading new updates, good stuff |
20:25.14 | Technobliterator | I'm currently brainstorming what Billig's last act should be |
20:25.35 | Xho | Eating a child |
20:26.34 | Monet | Eating one to many people burgers |
20:26.57 | Methanogen | Eating....a rock idk |
20:28.17 | Imperios | Going on a diet |
20:28.38 | Xho | ooo shit boi |
20:29.32 | Technobliterator | I have a few ideas, but I have no idea if Oluap will approve any of them |
20:30.56 | Xho | Needs more Vranntan |
20:30.58 | OluapPlayer | Well shoot |
20:31.45 | Technobliterator | I could PM you a few ideas |
20:32.13 | OluapPlayer | Do it |
20:33.14 | Hachiman | Billig's last act; becoming an Ouroboros and eating himself |
20:33.33 | Xho | Santorakh - 10/10 |
20:34.49 | Xho | Imperios: https://scontent-lhr3-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.0-9/17553854_438660109817393_4558089671375884053_n.jpg?oh=ceb77b5435be3e3167a67e70a5738344&oe=59985460 |
20:36.51 | Xho | Why does the IRC go dead when I talk about my fiction |
20:36.54 | Xho | Strange phenomenon |
20:37.04 | Technobliterator | Did you? :V |
20:37.28 | Xho | Well |
20:37.32 | Methanogen | Well in my case it's just because idk what any of this stuff is or means etc, over time I'll try to learn it all |
20:37.34 | Xho | I dunno |
20:37.54 | Xho | To be fair I don't like talking about my fiction so I'm just shooting myself in the foot |
20:38.20 | Methanogen | I like talking about my fiction but it doesn't have too much to talk about |
20:39.01 | Wormy_ | Hachiman: Greggs bakery heir Colin Gregg jailed for abusing boys http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-tyne-39443585 |
20:39.23 | Hachiman | That's what you get for fiddling with sausage rolls before they're ready |
20:40.32 | Wormy_ | that's dark hur |
20:40.35 | Xho | Well he's not getting out of there |
20:47.25 | Methanogen | Gtg nice talking |
20:48.28 | Imperios | Xho OluapPlayer Hachiman: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taymyr_Peninsula |
20:48.45 | Xho | uh oh |
20:54.56 | OluapPlayer | tayy lmao |
21:04.04 | Xho | Wormy_: "Man tries to burn EU flag. Flag doesnât burn because of EU regulations on flammable materials" |
21:05.41 | Xho | Huh, Randomness unfriended me on Steam |
21:05.43 | Xho | That's a first |
21:06.30 | Monet | I'm sure it wasn't out of malice or ill-intentions or anything. |
21:06.37 | Technobliterator | Oh, me as well |
21:06.59 | Xho | strange kid |
21:07.06 | Xho | Even though he's probably older than me |
21:07.07 | Xho | strange kid |
21:07.12 | Technobliterator | shrugs |
21:07.19 | Imperios | He said he wanted to leave once |
21:07.42 | Xho | He should go then AND I WILL RETAKE MY PLACE AS ADMIN, ALL LOOK UPON ME AND DESPAIR |
21:07.45 | Xho | or something |
21:07.51 | Technobliterator | He said that multiple times, though |
21:08.39 | Wormy_ | Xho: rekt, in both cases |
21:08.41 | Monet | Well he's online pretty rarely. |
21:09.32 | Imperios | Xho: You mean I will finally ascend to my rightful place |
21:09.41 | Wormy_ | Random visits Cyrannus often. It's just that he has found a new worldbuilding community better suited to hardcore science |
21:09.43 | Xho | SporeWiki: Civil War |
21:09.48 | Technobliterator | I haven't seen him on in forever |
21:09.51 | Imperios | Jokes on me I am too hysterical and neurotic for this position |
21:10.06 | OluapPlayer | He's not been on this chat in a very long time |
21:10.13 | OluapPlayer | He left Sporewiki for good |
21:10.18 | Wormy_ | ~seen The_Randomness |
21:10.21 | infobot | the_randomness <~chatzilla@2607:ea00:107:3c01:409:a6c1:17e:7413> was last seen on IRC in channel #cyrannus, 1d 32m 39s ago, saying: 'bbl'. |
21:10.30 | Xho | oh well then |
21:10.32 | Wormy_ | Hangs on by a thread |
21:10.34 | Technobliterator | This would make sense |
21:11.19 | Xho | Objectively speaking I'm not sure why he was made an admin in the first place |
21:11.28 | Xho | He was semi-active at best beforehand |
21:11.37 | OluapPlayer | The decision was made without my involvement |
21:11.48 | Wormy_ | Well, he had promise as a level headed user |
21:12.06 | Xho | none of us are particularly level headed lol |
21:12.06 | Technobliterator | I think he promised to be active again |
21:12.12 | Technobliterator | then was for about a week |
21:12.16 | Technobliterator | and dropped off straight after |
21:12.24 | DrodoEmpire | He's level-headed enough and he has prior experience as a moderator |
21:12.31 | Wormy_ | Tbf he never asked to be admin |
21:12.34 | Technobliterator | I mean, we could demote due to inactivity, I guess |
21:12.34 | OluapPlayer | No one bothered to get my input on the matter |

21:12.59 | Xho | Hi |
21:13.04 | OluapPlayer | my editing is augmented |
21:13.13 | Wormy_ | Actually, who becomes admin and who gets it removed is up to me, as a bureaucrat. |
21:13.15 | Xho | morgoth is illuminatus |
21:13.19 | Technobliterator | It's up to wormy :o |
21:13.34 | OluapPlayer | Without taking the moderators' input under consideration? |
21:13.37 | Wormy_ | I can take suggestions |
21:13.49 | Wormy_ | And everyone thought it was a good idea |
21:13.56 | OluapPlayer | I didn't |
21:13.57 | Wormy_ | I;m sorry you wasn't around. |
21:14.37 | Xho | tbf I don't think we need another admin |
21:14.43 | Wormy_ | On the subject of whether Random should keep his adminship, I will respect your input |
21:14.49 | Xho | We're functioning fine without Randomness as an admin |
21:14.57 | Xho | Sorta |
21:15.06 | DrodoEmpire | Xho: Memus Ex: Shia Divided |
21:15.07 | OluapPlayer | He doesn't need to stay an admin considering he's not been in this website for months |
21:15.09 | Technobliterator | I think Random his a cool guy, though I'm not sure it's mutual anymore |
21:15.34 | Xho | DrodoEmpire: JUST AUGMENT IT |
21:15.42 | DrodoEmpire | ayy |
21:15.44 | Technobliterator | yeah, looks like he removed all the people not in the cyrannus channel |
21:15.51 | Xho | DON'T LET YOUR DREAMS BE UNAUGMENTED DREAMS |
21:16.03 | DrodoEmpire | Tech: odd |
21:16.04 | OluapPlayer | what a shame |
21:16.07 | Wormy_ | If you want the truth, he couldn't stand the politics on SporeWiki nor has time to do two fic universes, but as far as I'm aware, he's not said he would leave the communityt |
21:16.09 | Xho | tbf I've always found Randomness aloof and a bit strange |

21:16.34 | DrodoEmpire | He certainly can be Xho, though we got well-acquainted with eachother over time |
21:16.43 | Wormy_ | I*stand the discussions of politics |
21:16.44 | Technobliterator | I think he's cool, but can get very hostile |
21:17.02 | Xho | When you say politics on SporeWiki you mean the way it's run or BREXIT/TRUMP |
21:17.05 | DrodoEmpire | Mostly because we were both on in the wee hours when a few notable trolls also came on |
21:17.27 | Monet | Xho: The stuff that goes on between people. |
21:17.29 | DrodoEmpire | Both, I recall |
21:17.30 | Wormy_ | Brexit/Trump |
21:17.42 | OluapPlayer | getting mixed messages here |
21:17.50 | Xho | To be honest the only real breakdown that happens on the Wiki now is when my seasonal depression takes over and I start trying to destroy everyone |
21:17.54 | OluapPlayer | Regardless me and him never really got along, in the wiki and out of it |
21:18.01 | Xho | I must try to keep that in check this year |
21:18.10 | Wormy_ | My breakdown is when I get drunk and come on here |
21:18.17 | Technobliterator | I think you used to early on, but that soured for some reason |
21:18.43 | Xho | I ruined the Kicath and my involvement in Borealis over the last time so I don't want that to happen again |
21:19.12 | OluapPlayer | You've saved yourself of having your fiction in an inactive galaxy |
21:19.17 | Xho | yey |
21:19.20 | Xho | 5/10 i tried |
21:19.24 | DrodoEmpire | I haven;t been doing as much fiction because I've been lacking motivation-- and that stems from school I guess |
21:19.45 | DrodoEmpire | That's temporary though |
21:19.48 | Xho | The seasonal depression was also that time I removed myself from being an admin and went psychotic at Cyrannus for no reason |
21:19.53 | Technobliterator | I haven't been doing fiction because I've been lacking time |
21:19.54 | Xho | Cyrannian evne |

21:19.57 | Xho | The irish guy |
21:20.06 | Wormy_ | oh yeah |
21:20.09 | Technobliterator | I don't remember why you went mad at Cyrannian |
21:20.14 | Xho | No reason |
21:20.14 | Technobliterator | but I remember that it happened |
21:20.16 | OluapPlayer | [angry leprechaun noises] |
21:20.23 | Technobliterator | and he was really confused |
21:20.25 | Xho | December is a very rough time for me mentally |
21:20.32 | Technobliterator | I think I went mad at him |
21:20.34 | Xho | I become very paranoid and irritable |
21:20.36 | Technobliterator | and he was similarly confused |
21:20.39 | Technobliterator | and I don't remember why |
21:20.49 | Xho | Happens every year |
21:20.54 | Wormy_ | I remember when Techno and Cyrannian had a big fued and I got caught in the middle |
21:20.59 | Technobliterator | I don't remember why that was |
21:21.00 | Technobliterator | at all |
21:21.01 | Wormy_ | *feud |

21:22.01 | Wormy_ | I know you got mad at me |
21:22.10 | Monet | <PROTECTED> |

21:22.15 | Technobliterator | I'm sure you had your reason |
21:22.18 | Technobliterator | but I don't remember why |
21:22.19 | OluapPlayer | Only one immune to it is dino |
21:22.22 | ZF102 | I defiantly pissed off a few here, probably with my noobishness early on. |
21:22.27 | OluapPlayer | Dino is a cinnamon roll too pure for this world |
21:22.34 | Wormy_ | Oluap had a perfectly fine reason to me bad at me and taught me a lesson |
21:22.35 | Technobliterator | Well, dino is impossible to have beef with |

21:23.05 | Technobliterator | I don't think I have got mad at Xho, at least |
21:23.06 | Wormy_ | Actually, I remember having a fierce Star Wars vs Star Trek debate with dino |

21:23.11 | OluapPlayer | You get what I mean |
21:23.12 | Hachiman | -first almost |

21:23.17 | Technobliterator | I think I never got mad at Wormy or Oluap either |
21:23.31 | Xho | Hachi got mad at me once and called the Xhodocto terrible |
21:23.36 | Technobliterator | Hachi, I have heard stories about me getting mad at him, but I don't remember |
21:23.39 | Technobliterator | at all |

21:24.09 | OluapPlayer | I remember getting mad at Cyrannian once because I was having a bad week and ended up snapping at him |
21:24.13 | OluapPlayer | But we patched it up quickly |
21:24.13 | Hachiman | And vice versa |
21:24.25 | Technobliterator | Even dino? :o |

21:24.48 | DrodoEmpire | Hachiman: I still remember the dumb spats we used to have lmao |
21:24.56 | Technobliterator | I don't remember it |
21:24.57 | Technobliterator | or why |
21:25.00 | Xho | I was a generally angry individual up until recently |
21:25.01 | DrodoEmpire | Oddly enough I also remember what I was eating, if I was |
21:25.02 | OluapPlayer | I only get mad at Wormy when he's drunk |
21:25.05 | Xho | Now it's just hollow and depressed |
21:25.09 | ZF103 | I don't try to get mad at anyone. Usually, when I get angry, I just smash my head onto the computer table. |
21:25.13 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
21:25.15 | DrodoEmpire | gud |
21:25.22 | OluapPlayer | When he's sober I'm kinda sad we don't speak too much |

21:25.35 | DrodoEmpire | edge |
21:25.36 | OluapPlayer | I get mad at you at least once a week, Imp |
21:25.42 | Wormy_ | Me and Drodo used to have very long and drawn out arguments, but now we tend to avoid conflicting opinions and get on all right |
21:25.46 | OluapPlayer | Usually because you take 15 years to respond to my messages |
21:25.49 | Imperios | No need to remember me having spats |
21:25.57 | Technobliterator | I think I got mad at Imp once, but not frequently |
21:25.58 | Imperios | Because I think I had them with EVERYONE |
21:26.02 | DrodoEmpire | Wormy_: Yeah we have one every once and a while |
21:26.04 | Imperios | We had dota-related spats with Jo |
21:26.08 | Xho | I don't really have any beef with any user any more |

21:26.14 | Technobliterator | Did we? I don't remember any of them |
21:26.17 | Imperios | We had an Andromeda-related spat with OP |
21:26.19 | DrodoEmpire | They're always long and I always get really fucking angry >.< |
21:26.25 | DrodoEmpire | Or frustrated |
21:26.31 | Imperios | A few with Xho about me using his creations without his approval |
21:26.32 | ZF103 | I don't think I've ever had a spat with Imp. I feel left out. |
21:26.32 | Wormy_ | And I'm really stubborn and never stop |
21:26.34 | DrodoEmpire | But nah you're a cool guy wormy, always thought that |
21:26.38 | Imperios | A few political spats with Hachi |
21:26.48 | Imperios | Drodo even |
21:26.49 | Technobliterator | I think Wormy has probably been frustrated with me |
21:26.49 | OluapPlayer | more like every time you talk to each other |
21:26.52 | Technobliterator | but I never got mad at him |
21:26.54 | Xho | Imperios: tbf not knowing things is not aesthetic |

21:27.34 | DrodoEmpire | >: |
21:27.39 | Wormy_ | Imperios: I only vaguely remember that |
21:27.42 | Imperios | We argued with Drodo mostly because of our divergent political views |
21:27.43 | Technobliterator | Charles is mostly cool, but one or two times he comes off as condescending |
21:27.48 | Wormy_ | What was it about? |
21:27.49 | Xho | No word of a lie, there is a place in the UK called Cuckfield |

21:28.45 | ZF104 | Wow, sexual? |
21:28.45 | Imperios | Nah it was two different occasions |
21:28.52 | Xho | That was quite nuts tho |
21:28.54 | ZF104 | I'm sickened...but curious. |
21:29.00 | Monet | When you were slow writing or when I complained over Irsk. |
21:29.09 | Wormy_ | Charles and I are on cool terms now, but yes we had our significant differences on many things and found it hard to see eye to eye |
21:29.12 | Imperios | First I got a week ban for sexual stuff and having annoyed Cyr really well |
21:29.12 | OluapPlayer | Yes they were being too lewd with Tyraz and Iovera |
21:29.12 | OluapPlayer | So we had to ban them for a week, or was it 3 days |
21:29.18 | Imperios | Then Hachi and R17 got banned later on |
21:29.21 | Xho | A while |
21:29.22 | Imperios | For 3 days |
21:29.25 | Technobliterator | oh god |
21:29.26 | Technobliterator | R17 |
21:29.27 | Imperios | These were two separate bans |
21:29.28 | Technobliterator | He was a handful |
21:29.28 | DrodoEmpire | ooh spicy <.< |
21:29.34 | DrodoEmpire | Oh shit I remember R17 |
21:29.38 | OluapPlayer | Fucking hell R17 |
21:29.44 | DrodoEmpire | He was quite the interesting meme |
21:29.45 | Xho | HOW DO I PRONOUNCE XARIK-WHATEVER AGAIN |
21:29.45 | OluapPlayer | He was like Xho but without the redeeming qualities |
21:29.50 | DrodoEmpire | ayy lmao |
21:29.52 | Imperios | But yes there is no person here with whom I have interacted heavily WITHOUT getting into spats |
21:29.52 | Technobliterator | Pfffft |
21:30.00 | Monet | Archdeacon of Tzeentcian Loecraft Edge |
21:30.02 | ZF104 | What happened with R17? I mostly got along with him. |
21:30.03 | Imperios | I suppose I am just naturally inconsiderate |
21:30.09 | Xho | OluapPlayer: >implying i have redeeming qualities |
21:30.15 | OluapPlayer | ZF104: Ridiculously short-tempered |
21:30.15 | Imperios | Actually wait there is one |
21:30.17 | Imperios | Tybusen |
21:30.21 | Wormy_ | I kind of liked R17 |
21:30.23 | Technobliterator | Do people still get mad at me? Like, apparently everyone has been mad at me at some point even if it wasn't mutual |
21:30.23 | Technobliterator | :| |
21:30.28 | Imperios | But he's not been answering my Skype messages for like ages |
21:30.28 | OluapPlayer | He got mad over every single thing ever |
21:30.40 | Imperios | And still has not finished the Uniate League |
21:30.40 | Xho | You're not around here long enough for us to get mad at you in the first place top kek |
21:30.44 | OluapPlayer | Technobliterator: Just over fiction |
21:30.44 | Technobliterator | :V |
21:30.44 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah I dunno what happened to him Imperios |
21:30.48 | *** join/#sporewiki ZF105 (4933de11@gateway/web/freenode/ip.73.51.222.17) |
21:30.52 | Imperios | So I am now slightly angry at Tybusen |
21:30.53 | Technobliterator | Over fiction? |
21:31.00 | Monet | Technobliterator: For me it's just when you talk about Iraq. |
21:31.02 | OluapPlayer | Yes, because your ideas are dumb hur |
21:31.07 | Imperios | Technobliterator: We had quite a few disagreements |
21:31.08 | ZF105 | OluapPalyer I've heard of his temper, but we never butted heads. |
21:31.08 | DrodoEmpire | Wormy_: I recall doing RPs with him a lot |
21:31.09 | Technobliterator | ya mom |
21:31.13 | DrodoEmpire | They were... eh |
21:31.15 | Imperios | First it's Dota obviously |
21:31.17 | DrodoEmpire | I recall them being strange |
21:31.24 | DrodoEmpire | Not Aeo-level fucking strange |
21:31.25 | Imperios | Then me being rude to you once |
21:31.26 | DrodoEmpire | But strange |
21:31.27 | Xho | Ao |
21:31.29 | Xho | Aeo even |
21:31.31 | Technobliterator | I don't remember having issues with you over Dota |
21:31.32 | Imperios | And you were really angry back then |
21:31.34 | Imperios | You had |
21:31.36 | Imperios | Lots of them |
21:31.38 | Xho | Now Aeo was a piece of work |
21:31.43 | Technobliterator | This comes as no surprise to me |
21:31.44 | Imperios | Actually guys |
21:31.45 | Technobliterator | but I don't remember any |
21:31.48 | ZF105 | Wait, whose stuff is strange, my internet cut out? It's Still R17 right? |
21:31.49 | Imperios | Can I apologise for something |
21:31.49 | DrodoEmpire | Aeo was incredible in how unreadable he was |
21:31.53 | OluapPlayer | SporeWiki's own little DEUS VULT |
21:31.57 | DrodoEmpire | Aeoneonatrix |
21:31.59 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah |
21:32.10 | DrodoEmpire | Until he became an atheist at some point |
21:32.10 | Imperios | Every time I got hurt and lashed out at people, panicking and whatnot |
21:32.12 | Imperios | Sorry for that |
21:32.18 | Imperios | I REALLY hate that character trait of mine |
21:32.23 | Xho | Man it's quite amazing how many users have come and gone |
21:32.25 | Technobliterator | We probably forgive you |
21:32.32 | DrodoEmpire | And then there was his -weird- morality and philosophy which was impenetrable and... yikes |
21:32.39 | Wormy_ | <PROTECTED> |
21:32.41 | Xho | Imperios: I can understand because that's just December to February for me |
21:32.44 | Technobliterator | oh, you know who no one was ever mad at |
21:32.46 | Technobliterator | FalcoPunch |
21:32.56 | Xho | I was mad at Falco |
21:33.01 | ZF105 | Falco was awesome. |
21:33.05 | Xho | He wrote fiction on raptor-gator sex |
21:33.07 | Technobliterator | This comes as no surprise to me |
21:33.08 | Xho | fuck that m8 |
21:33.10 | Technobliterator | oh |
21:33.13 | Technobliterator | bleh |
21:33.16 | Monet | I think I've managed to get on every person's nerves at least once. |
21:33.18 | DrodoEmpire | His RPs were some of the weirdest things ever, but they were intoxicating in how strange they were so I kept coming back for more lmao |
21:33.21 | OluapPlayer | reminder that the gators belonged to Hachi |
21:33.24 | Wormy_ | I remember Poeringu and Zagorian |
21:33.35 | Xho | OluapPlayer: That only makes it slightly more logical |
21:33.39 | OluapPlayer | Poeringu was my first wiki friend |
21:33.48 | OluapPlayer | But then he suddenly disappeared one day |
21:33.52 | Xho | rip |
21:33.53 | Wormy_ | And TimeMaster... He had it in for me. |
21:34.01 | Technobliterator | oh, TimeMaster |
21:34.04 | Monet | Although I've come to settle on the belief that it's the relationships where nothing bad happens that are the most concerning. |
21:34.10 | Technobliterator | I remember he kept trying to rejoin the wiki and get into the fictionverse |
21:34.12 | DrodoEmpire | Who was TimeMaster, again? |
21:34.13 | Technobliterator | and it never worked out |
21:34.18 | Xho | He was a Taldar |
21:34.21 | *** join/#sporewiki ZF106 (4933de11@gateway/web/freenode/ip.73.51.222.17) |
21:34.21 | Xho | A very bad Taldar at that |
21:34.23 | OluapPlayer | dur |
21:34.25 | DrodoEmpire | ayy lmao |
21:34.30 | Tybusen | Imperios: I've been busy with schoolwork and shit and that's why I haven't been able to make much progress on Uniate League stuff |
21:34.34 | OluapPlayer | TimeMaster was an admin from before the fictionverse |
21:34.35 | Xho | ZF106: Fucking hell sort your shit out |
21:34.36 | Technobliterator | He did try and make races like the Taldar, though |
21:34.43 | Technobliterator | yeah, and every time he tried to join the fictionverse |
21:34.44 | ZF106 | I can't help it! |
21:34.46 | Technobliterator | it never worked out |
21:34.47 | Imperios | Right |
21:34.52 | Xho | DO IT JUST DO IT |
21:34.52 | ZF106 | My internet is cutting out all the time. |
21:34.56 | Technobliterator | so he just sorta gave up |
21:35.06 | Wormy_ | Drodo: He tried to get me banned as "vandal" for accidentally breaking an infobox |
21:35.07 | Xho | Val keeps appearing and disappearing |
21:35.09 | Imperios | Tybusen: Plz comment to the POTATO flag I made doe |
21:35.14 | ZF106 | I don't want to restart my computer and miss the saucy gossip. |
21:35.20 | Wormy_ | He also kept undoing my edits and putting up my pages for deleytion |
21:35.24 | Technobliterator | oh |
21:35.25 | Technobliterator | Val |
21:35.29 | OluapPlayer | I've butted heads with everyone here, save the people I don't talk to |
21:35.31 | Technobliterator | No one has ever been mad at Val |
21:35.41 | DrodoEmpire | CrimCrimCrim has in for you Xho lol |
21:35.45 | OluapPlayer | I've never got mad at Val since I never spoke to him |
21:35.48 | Technobliterator | He's like Dino in that sense |
21:35.49 | DrodoEmpire | Val is awesome |
21:35.57 | Technobliterator | Val was my best friend here for ages |
21:35.58 | Xho | Val only really became understandable only recently |
21:36.08 | Xho | Other than that his fiction was very difficult to read on the account of not so good English |
21:36.13 | Xho | So it kinda went around in circles |
21:36.13 | Technobliterator | but then he used to leave all the time |
21:36.28 | ZF106 | I remeber one person kept vandalising my old fiction back in the day. |
21:36.29 | Wormy_ | Val, GD12 and that Somarinanoa are three users that keep coming and going |
21:36.40 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
21:36.48 | Xho | I don't really know who I'd call a best friend on the wiki |
21:36.49 | ZF106 | Never found the guy, but he kept trying to create wierd links between mine and other user's fiction. |
21:36.53 | OluapPlayer | I quite disliked GD12 when he first showed up |
21:36.55 | Wormy_ | Latter one goes back to the "origins" era of Sporewiki |
21:36.56 | Monet | GD12 and the eternal breakfast. |
21:37.00 | Xho | I kind of hug and stab everyone at the same time because fuck you all lol |
21:37.00 | OluapPlayer | He made an OP fiction and was praised for it |
21:37.20 | Technobliterator | Somarinoa never really does anything |
21:37.21 | ZF106 | It was a well written OP fiction tho. |
21:37.22 | OluapPlayer | At least we managed to work things out. Mainly since he let me destroy part of said OP fiction |
21:37.26 | Technobliterator | other than complain that we delete his stuff |
21:37.28 | Technobliterator | despite him never using it |
21:37.37 | Wormy_ | lol |
21:37.48 | DrodoEmpire | That was a point of contention between me and him for a while, until I got over my inferiority complex and was happy with where I was eventually |
21:37.49 | Monet | OLuapPlayer: Unlike most people who do that he planned a rise and fall from early on. |
21:37.50 | ZF106 | I think my internet is working now. |
21:37.58 | Xho | GD and I got along but we never got to writing fiction primarily because both of our fictions were OP |
21:38.02 | OluapPlayer | I suppose |
21:38.16 | OluapPlayer | I got a good kick out of Vorius devouring a ship full of Dominatus |
21:38.18 | Tybusen | Xho: "Once everyone's OP, no one will be" |
21:38.22 | Xho | xhodocto |
21:38.26 | Monet | But the rise and fall was something of an inside deal. |
21:38.38 | Monet | I miss him. |
21:38.40 | Wormy_ | Tyranny-DCP battles were some of the best fun I;ve had |
21:38.42 | OluapPlayer | demogorgon prime was an inside job |
21:38.54 | Xho | PLANET BUSTERS DON'T MELT PLANET CORES |
21:38.56 | Xho | OR SOMETHING |
21:39.13 | Monet | PLANET BUSTERS CAN'T MELT IRON CORES |
21:39.22 | Xho | there we go |
21:39.35 | OluapPlayer | Actually no, I've never had a beef with Ghelae |
21:39.36 | Wormy_ | IRON CORES CAN@T MELT PLANET BUSTERS |
21:39.43 | Technobliterator | Has anyone, though? |
21:39.43 | Technobliterator | :V |
21:39.44 | ZF106 | HOW TO LOSE AN ENTIRE CORE'S WORTH OF WIEGHT. |
21:39.46 | OluapPlayer | Considering his supreme neutrality and the fact we never really talk much |
21:39.58 | Technobliterator | He's impossible to beef with |
21:40.02 | Xho | tbf if you get mad at Ghelae you're really getting mad at yourself |
21:40.13 | DrodoEmpire | THIS ONE WEIRD TRICK MELTS AWAY PLANETARY CRUST INSTANTLY |
21:40.14 | Technobliterator | the worst you get from him is a sarcastic remark that you probably deserved |
21:40.15 | Monet | Best weapon ever has to be the LEZIAPETSSHIT - a canon that uses solidified maths to annihilate matter. |
21:40.27 | Xho | One user that will leave a sour taste in one's mouth |
21:40.28 | Wormy_ | I've got frustrated trying to understand Ghelae when he sees all the flaws in my ideas :P |
21:40.28 | Xho | Mush |
21:40.29 | Tybusen | Ghelae must be secretly Swiss |
21:40.30 | OluapPlayer | I still think that name is fucking stupid |
21:40.36 | Technobliterator | ugh, Mush |
21:40.38 | Technobliterator | Yes |
21:40.49 | Ghelae | Tybusen: You're not the first one to suggest that. |
21:40.52 | OluapPlayer | Captain Ego |
21:40.57 | Technobliterator | He used to be cool with everyone, then he got this ridiculous ego |
21:40.59 | Monet | The name kind of fits the theme |
21:41.05 | Technobliterator | Come to think of it, he always had it |
21:41.08 | Monet | LEZIAPETSSHIT sounds somewhat German. |
21:41.09 | Xho | The Xhodocto destroying the Obvia'Atra is still my crowning achievement |
21:41.20 | Technobliterator | but we just tolerated him at first |
21:41.24 | OluapPlayer | >get annihilated >strip naked |
21:41.27 | Technobliterator | oh yeah, the Obvia'Atra died |
21:41.28 | OluapPlayer | it's like hachi wrote this shit |
21:41.29 | Technobliterator | that was cool |
21:41.30 | Wormy_ | Did we shun Mush because we couldn't stand his ego or did he actually do something |
21:41.34 | ZF106 | I don't get how one can get an ego on here. It's Spore fanfictions. Nothing to be really proud of. |
21:41.37 | Technobliterator | He did two things |
21:41.40 | Tybusen | Are the Obvia'Atra simply dead, or have they been erased from canon? |
21:41.47 | Technobliterator | Firstly, his ego basically made us sick of him |
21:41.47 | OluapPlayer | Dead |
21:41.49 | Xho | Santorakh - YEAH GET NAKED FOR ME BITCH #TENTACLEHENTAI #FUCKINGREKTM8 |
21:41.55 | Technobliterator | Then, he returned and claimed he was going to make new galaxies |
21:41.56 | Wormy_ | I remember lengthening his ban because he kept socking |
21:42.01 | Xho | Pretty much how the Annihilation went |
21:42.17 | Technobliterator | Despite him leading the discussion in which we specifically said no new galaxies |
21:42.20 | Monet | He did try to blow up Phradox without any discussion about it |
21:42.32 | Xho | He went full Xhodocto with no Xhodocto |
21:42.34 | Ghelae | And now Phradox is the only one of his galaxies still around. |
21:42.37 | Technobliterator | So after that, he flamed people |
21:42.43 | Technobliterator | and then got banned |
21:42.45 | Technobliterator | kept evading the ban |
21:42.48 | Imperios | He's rich |
21:42.52 | Imperios | The wealth must have got into his head |
21:42.53 | Tybusen | Speaking of Phradox, the person who owns that galaxy doesn't seem to be around anymore |
21:42.54 | Technobliterator | and then has never returned |
21:42.54 | Xho | permabanned m8 |
21:42.59 | DrodoEmpire | ZF106: He brought the ego from elsewhere, I recall he's the child of some diplomat or some shit? |
21:43.05 | DrodoEmpire | So, yeah, wealthy |
21:43.07 | Xho | destroygalaxy.exe pls |
21:43.08 | DrodoEmpire | Might gone to his head |
21:43.11 | Monet | Imperios: He's rich and afawk he travelled the world |
21:43.12 | DrodoEmpire | *might've |
21:43.12 | Technobliterator | yeah he's rich |
21:43.17 | *** join/#sporewiki ZF108 (4933de11@gateway/web/freenode/ip.73.51.222.17) |
21:43.18 | Technobliterator | and basically bragged about how much sex he had |
21:43.22 | DrodoEmpire | Ugh |
21:43.35 | Wormy_ | I remember him asking us our sexuality, which was a very creepy thing to do |
21:43.36 | Technobliterator | then told us "no no, when you get as much as me, it's not special anymore, so it sucks" |
21:43.38 | DrodoEmpire | *he claims he had |
21:43.38 | Technobliterator | Like |
21:43.39 | ZF108 | SO ANYWAI, HOWS YUR SEX LIFE |
21:43.47 | Technobliterator | who does that |
21:43.55 | Xho | My sex life actually has a number |
21:43.57 | Xho | -1 |
21:44.06 | ZF_107 | test |
21:44.17 | Ghelae | Tybusen: Yeah, Bio21 hasn't been here in over three years. Phradox is now basically owned by Liquid Ink since he decided to start doing stuff with it recently. |
21:44.19 | DrodoEmpire | Wormy_: Yeah that's fucking weird. |
21:44.19 | OluapPlayer | depends do u count erp as sex ;x |
21:44.20 | Monet | Those who brag about their sex lives are usually hiding an insecurity. |
21:44.24 | OluapPlayer | Wow I feel gross for typing that |
21:44.25 | Tybusen | Xho: You gave out exactly one sex and didn't get one in return? |
21:44.31 | Xho | Not even that |
21:44.42 | Xho | Sex took one me from me |
21:44.49 | ZF_107 | Ouch |
21:45.00 | DrodoEmpire | "I'll have three sexs pls" |
21:45.00 | Wormy_ | He was bragging about his dick size too and asked me what mine was. But I thought he was asking me for my height so I posted my height to him |
21:45.04 | DrodoEmpire | "not one more" |
21:45.09 | DrodoEmpire | LOL |
21:45.11 | Xho | lel |
21:45.12 | Monet | Oh star gods above |
21:45.12 | OluapPlayer | Oh wow |
21:45.17 | ZF_107 | OH LAWD |
21:45.22 | Monet | Never ask for dick sizes over the internet! |
21:45.25 | Wormy_ | Maybe he was a stalker |
21:45.26 | Technobliterator | ... |
21:45.28 | DrodoEmpire | He must've been impressed <.< |
21:45.28 | Technobliterator | ._. |
21:45.29 | OluapPlayer | LET'S COMPARE COCKSSSSSSSSSSS |
21:45.31 | Imperios | Oh guys speaking of ERPs |
21:45.32 | ZF_107 | That was probably the most heterosexual Sporewiki chat |
21:45.35 | Xho | coxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx |
21:45.38 | Technobliterator | That's, uh |
21:45.38 | Wormy_ | Wasn't you there Ghelae? |
21:45.39 | Technobliterator | stupid |
21:45.43 | Wormy_ | Do you remember? |
21:45.47 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah its creepy |
21:45.53 | Xho | I actually know a guy with a surname Cocks |
21:45.55 | Monet | Technobliterator: Magna insecuritas. |
21:45.58 | Technobliterator | I mean |
21:45.58 | Ghelae | I might have been, although I don't remember that exact incident. |
21:46.00 | DrodoEmpire | I mean, do you plan to sleep with us anytime soon? |
21:46.03 | Xho | Funnily enough he's gay which makes me laugh somewhat |
21:46.05 | ZF_107 | What, you guys don't share your sizes with your best friends? I do it all the time. |
21:46.05 | OluapPlayer | http://i.imgur.com/2qbeSYt.jpg HERE'S MY BIG BLACK COCK |
21:46.07 | Ghelae | I do remember he was scared of the concept of asexuality. |
21:46.07 | DrodoEmpire | Why ask us this shit? |
21:46.11 | Tybusen | Yes let's ask Ghelae if he remembers seeing Wormy's 5-foot something dick |
21:46.20 | DrodoEmpire | olol |
21:46.21 | Technobliterator | It's silly |
21:46.21 | Xho | OluapPlayer: hashtag wet |
21:46.28 | ZF_107 | lwed Oluap, Lewd |
21:47.17 | DrodoEmpire | The whole idea of ERP makes my skin squirm a little though. Not because I'm averse to sexuality, its just fuckin weird |
21:47.20 | Monet | <PROTECTED> |
21:47.37 | Xho | What is ERP anyway |
21:47.46 | OluapPlayer | Erotic roleplay |
21:47.47 | DrodoEmpire | """"""Erotic""""" RolePlay |
21:47.53 | Monet | <PROTECTED> |
21:47.55 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
21:47.58 | Wormy_ | He used to brag about living in exotic locations |
21:48.00 | ZF_107 | Erotic Rop Penguins |
21:48.03 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
21:48.05 | Xho | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DY-xFP7HdEg |
21:48.15 | Wormy_ | "Look how lucky I am" |
21:48.26 | Imperios | It's weirder if it's a RL person you know posting these to you |
21:48.31 | Technobliterator | Yeah, he had a really stupid attitude |
21:48.39 | Technobliterator | I recall him always logging in while being drunk |
21:48.42 | Technobliterator | for some reason |
21:48.43 | Imperios | Like for example a girl wwho has a crush on you |
21:48.49 | Xho | This just reminds me of Biggie Cheese now |
21:48.56 | Monet | Wormy_: I would punch him. |
21:49.03 | Technobliterator | then I recall when he asked to be unbanned |
21:49.22 | Technobliterator | he basically wrote some heartfelt thing about how he was secretly so depressed despite being happy |
21:49.22 | ZF_107 | The Hammer of the Admins knows no mercy upon the wicked. |
21:49.29 | Monet | I don't care how 'refined' you are, bragging for eternity isn't classy. |
21:49.31 | Technobliterator | and creative writing was his only way to fix that |
21:49.32 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
21:49.32 | OluapPlayer | I remember Mush getting in trouble with Cyrannian during his ban tirade |
21:49.48 | Technobliterator | yeah |
21:49.49 | OluapPlayer | Again Cyrannian is the butt of everyone's anger |
21:49.52 | Technobliterator | Cyrannian banned him |
21:49.55 | Technobliterator | because he kept flaming |
21:49.58 | Technobliterator | then ban evading |
21:50.06 | ZF_107 | I'm probably the only one whose never been banned, but probably should've been. |
21:50.11 | Imperios | DrodoEmpire Wormy_: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/France Ohgod try playing the anthem |
21:50.18 | Imperios | Hachiman too |
21:50.30 | Wormy_ | How come? |
21:50.32 | Monet | I remember once seeing a quote on his Core Empire page that had a Libertus speaking like the Core citizens were gods. |
21:50.35 | Wormy_ | Tis the French anthem |
21:50.46 | OluapPlayer | Yeah that ticked Cyrannian off |
21:50.50 | Technobliterator | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Log/block?page=User%3AMushrumKing yeah, this was it |
21:50.51 | Xho | Imperios: My fucking sides |
21:51.00 | Technobliterator | No, most people here haven't been banned |
21:51.01 | DrodoEmpire | "sup boyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy" |
21:51.07 | Technobliterator | Xho has been "banned" but it was a joke ban |
21:51.13 | Technobliterator | I have been joke banned by myself constantly |
21:51.37 | Technobliterator | http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Log/block?page=User%3ATechnobliterator |
21:51.40 | Technobliterator | most of these are stupid |
21:51.44 | Wormy_ | Monet: The thing that bothered me is that you can be ricjh and explore the world, but not actually see or experience anything really special |
21:52.06 | Technobliterator | I was even told to stop being stupid for one of them |
21:52.08 | Imperios | Wormy_: The lyrics |
21:52.22 | Xho | "21:31, April 19, 2015 OluapPlayer (wall | contribs) unblocked Technobliterator (wall | contribs) (Stop being stupid)" |
21:52.23 | Xho | wow |
21:52.26 | OluapPlayer | Yes, because you had fiction to write but you banned yourself |
21:52.31 | Hachiman | Imperios: I don't get it |
21:52.32 | OluapPlayer | So I unbanned you so you could edit |
21:52.34 | Technobliterator | ah |
21:52.35 | Hachiman | It's just the anthem |
21:52.46 | Imperios | Hachiman: Read the lyrics that appear while you play it |
21:52.51 | Imperios | Start again |
21:53.00 | Monet | Wormy_: The secret millionaire |
21:53.37 | Imperios | Wormy_: He has seen the tourist facade of nations but does not know the common folk and how they suffer |
21:53.38 | Monet | HAchiman: "Form your battalions, |
21:53.38 | Monet | Let's march, let's march! |
21:53.38 | Monet | Let an impure blood |
21:53.38 | Monet | Soak our fields!" |
21:53.40 | Wormy_ | Monet: my Dad used to go backpacking without money in India, Middle East, China and Kashgar, Tibet, , Mongolia. His experiences were really unforgettable |
21:53.41 | Imperios | *Soviet anthem plays* |

21:53.51 | ZF108 | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBSRA2k7FBE |
21:53.57 | Imperios | Start the anthem from the beginning and read the lyrics |
21:54.00 | ZF108 | When the internet keeps breaking. |
21:54.52 | Hachiman | Oh God |
21:55.02 | Hachiman | "Arise, children of the Fatherland, sup boyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy" |
21:55.08 | Monet | Despite the moniker "cheese-eating surrender monkeys", France's anthem isn't-half aggressive. |
21:55.33 | Wormy_ | "Arise, children of the land. Sup boiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii" |
21:55.59 | Monet | I saw "children of the Fatherland" |
21:56.10 | Tybusen | Imagine how the Napoleonic Wars would have turned out if the French Army's battle cry was "sup boyyyyyyyyyyyy" |
21:56.17 | Xho | https://youtu.be/fvtQYsckLxk?t=1m5s ARISE CHILDREN OF THE FATHERLAND |
21:56.34 | Wormy_ | "To cut the throats of women and children" |
21:57.01 | Monet | Look at the final verse. |
21:57.30 | Hachiman | Napoleon turns up and intimidates his enemies by performing his longest "yeah boiiiiiiiii" ever |
21:58.02 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
21:58.03 | Monet | It's basically "When the adults are too old to protect their country, we the future generation will sign up and fight in their place" |
21:59.08 | Wormy_ | Has Wikip[edia been vamdalised or something? |
21:59.14 | Xho | "I have a week set of lungs" |
21:59.25 | Ghelae | Wormy_: The file on Wikimedia Commons has. |
21:59.26 | Xho | A WEAK SET OF LUNGS AND THEN YEAH BOIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII |
21:59.39 | Monet | Ever since first hearing a translation of La Marseillaise I've wondered "how the fuck do people think the French are surrendering pansies" |
21:59.49 | Tybusen | oui garcooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooon |
21:59.53 | DrodoEmpire | ayyyy |
21:59.57 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah its pretty hardcore |
22:00.10 | Tybusen | Wormy_: When has Wikipedia not been vandalized? |
22:00.13 | Technobliterator | I have no idea how anyone patrols Wikipedia's RC |
22:00.21 | Ghelae | https://commons.wikimedia.org/w/index.php?title=TimedText:La_Marseillaise.ogg.en.srt&diff=prev&oldid=239228315&uselang=en-gb |
22:00.27 | Technobliterator | It gets so many edits every second |
22:00.58 | Monet | >Famous for surrounding >Anthem chants how they will take up arms and anoint the land in their enemies' blood. |
22:01.03 | Wormy_ | This is the gold standard of vandalism |
22:01.09 | Technobliterator | Wow, Imp's edit |
22:01.11 | Technobliterator | : | |
22:01.12 | Ghelae | I suspect it isn't monitored very well. Mostly done by bots, watchlists, and new pages patrolling rather than recentchanges patrolling. |
22:01.26 | Imperios | Oh |
22:01.28 | Imperios | Sorry |
22:01.31 | Imperios | I just did that |
22:01.35 | Technobliterator | hahahaha |
22:01.36 | Technobliterator | that's funny |
22:01.39 | Imperios | But the initial edit wasn't mine |
22:01.55 | Tybusen | Imp you're gonna get banned from Wikipedia |
22:02.14 | Imperios | I fucking forgot to log out while doing this hur |
22:02.26 | DrodoEmpire | That's like saying you're gonna get a visit from the By-Law Enforcement |
22:02.27 | DrodoEmpire | <.< |
22:02.34 | DrodoEmpire | "ooh, so scared" |
22:03.03 | OluapPlayer | say that after they break down your door and beat you up until you cry |
22:03.08 | OluapPlayer | dont mess with the dictionary BITCH |
22:03.11 | DrodoEmpire | "yes officer i'll move my ferns seven inches to the right" |
22:03.12 | Imperios | Okay at least my vandalism was at least somewhat clever |
22:03.15 | DrodoEmpire | ayy lmao |
22:03.25 | Wormy_ | I used to vandalise Wkipedia and Wookipedia |
22:03.31 | Xho | tfw Charles bursts through your door and shoves a 24 inch baguette up your ass |

22:03.38 | OluapPlayer | people even |
22:03.43 | DrodoEmpire | Xho: hot ;) |
22:03.49 | Wormy_ | I changed an infobox for a clone trooper class with "gaytrooper" |
22:03.50 | Xho | mon dieu |
22:03.53 | OluapPlayer | peope sounds like a Pope-themed drug |
22:03.58 | DrodoEmpire | Wormy_: FUCKING DESTROYED |
22:04.12 | ZF108 | Well Wormy, Clones have no women in their ranks. They gotta get what they can get. |
22:04.13 | Xho | Imperios: I showed my friend that |
22:04.23 | Xho | He went "Someone really took a bat to those lyrics" |
22:04.25 | Imperios | Xho: The initial vandalism or mine? |
22:04.28 | Xho | Yours |
22:04.31 | Imperios | Oh |
22:04.33 | Imperios | I am honoured |

22:14.36 | Imperios | And elementals sang this strain |
22:14.45 | Imperios | Horde of Iron, Iron Horde, rule the waves |

22:15.17 | OluapPlayer | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9-jOMdC4BI only one thing you'll ever need |
22:15.48 | Imperios | I seriously want to mix Rule Britannia with WoD |
22:15.49 | Xho | "Best review of STALKER so far" |
22:16.16 | OluapPlayer | such is life in the Zone |
22:16.33 | Monet | Xho DrodoEmpire Imperios Tybusen: http://spore.wikia.com/wiki/Fiction:Third_House_War#The_Great_Game Half done but |
22:17.06 | Monet | Original chapter I realise was poor so have a window into posh dragon world. |
22:17.47 | Technobliterator | Okay, folks, you may find the next Ancient Three War section interesting :o |
22:18.01 | ZF108 | Does it involved Godzilla? |
22:18.16 | Imperios | Wormy_: https://youtu.be/8OIGCkfmK8w?t=33 I give you our answer to Rule Britannia |
22:18.18 | Xho | Monet: Uriel http://s2.quickmeme.com/img/10/103ae317aacb5e55671933f62411b5fc686ab5f5b7f78ec00b8e77ffb8fd63af.jpg |

22:19.57 | DrodoEmpire | Monet: oh no |
22:20.18 | Imperios | ZF108: Yeah, nice Konigsberg you had |
22:20.22 | Imperios | TOO BAD IT IS NOW KALININGRAD |
22:20.29 | ZF108 | REEEEE!! |
22:20.41 | DrodoEmpire | REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE |
22:20.53 | ZF108 | WRRRRRRRRRRRYYYYYY |
22:20.54 | Monet | Xho: Oh yeah quite a wham line. |
22:21.09 | Monet | It was fun describing the gala itself. |
22:21.28 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah its a really rich description |
22:21.32 | Hachiman | WRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY |
22:21.45 | Monet | Also the challenge of having Uriel there but not look like he's walking blindly into a lion's mouth. |
22:22.02 | OluapPlayer | AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA |
22:22.04 | Xho | Kithworto - RUN BITCH RUN |
22:22.08 | ZF108 | MUDA MUDA MUDA! |
22:22.12 | Imperios | Wormy_: Our version of Rule Britannia is either Wide is My Motherland (which I showed you) or Be Glorified, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i7vGnKXrVYI |
22:22.13 | Xho | OluapPlayer: get ur own catchphrase |
22:22.36 | Wormy_ | very epic |
22:22.37 | Imperios | The other patriotic songs are more about the military |
22:22.57 | Imperios | Do you have any WW2-era ones? |
22:23.04 | OluapPlayer | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wh261nfSn3E AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA |
22:23.17 | Wormy_ | Imperios: This one's played for WWI and 2 ceremonies https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7MG27BKwjaI |
22:23.41 | Wormy_ | Its more sad than glorifying war though |
22:23.59 | Imperios | Ours are a mix |
22:24.15 | Imperios | There are two main iconic WW2 songs, one written in 1941, the other is 1945 |
22:24.30 | Xho | OluapPlayer: Unfortunately I had headphones on |
22:24.41 | Imperios | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sailmeWkm_A This one is about offering resistance in face of an overwhelming force |
22:24.45 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah British/Canadian ways of remembrance tend to be very solemn and respectfully reserved |
22:24.54 | OluapPlayer | you got agitated skeleton'd |
22:24.57 | Wormy_ | I think Britain lost its glory for war after WW! |
22:25.00 | Wormy_ | *1 |
22:25.42 | Imperios | Wormy_: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQ2q5ALTXNM And here's the 1945 song |
22:26.14 | OluapPlayer | Hachiman: Check that link |
22:26.49 | Wormy_ | Think I've the second one before |
22:27.10 | Imperios | Not unlikely, it's a very popular song |
22:27.19 | Imperios | We sang it in school |
22:27.45 | Wormy_ | BBC Radio 4 used tio play this mashup every morning https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rF7kzj4lCnE |
22:27.56 | Wormy_ | But antri-patriotic dogooders complained |
22:28.55 | Imperios | I like how both me and Wormy are normally tolerant left-wingers but have that hidden imperialist side |
22:29.27 | Wormy_ | I think its good to be proud of one's country's achievements. |
22:29.58 | Imperios | Wormy_: Oh, we have a similar thing where before making announcements, on the radio or for example on train stations, there will be a few notes from certain patriotic songs |
22:30.09 | *** join/#sporewiki ZF109 (4933de11@gateway/web/freenode/ip.73.51.222.17) |
22:30.11 | DrodoEmpire | Wormy_: I'm the same way |
22:30.18 | Hachiman | OluapPlayer: Holy fucking shit |
22:30.20 | Wormy_ | I mean, much of the Western world's values, technology, institutions and values come from the British Enlightenment and industrial rebolution |
22:30.24 | DrodoEmpire | ^ |
22:30.30 | OluapPlayer | AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA |
22:30.48 | Monet | The British Empire may have been flawed, like horribly flawed bordering malicious sometimes, but Britain today wouldn't be Britan as we know it without its existence. |
22:31.01 | OluapPlayer | Revenants are hilarious |
22:31.03 | Imperios | Actually yes |
22:31.08 | DrodoEmpire | The Assyrian Empire existed |
22:31.11 | Imperios | DrodoEmpire: Go share some Canadian patriotic music with us |
22:31.12 | DrodoEmpire | You're fine, Britain |
22:31.13 | OluapPlayer | It's a huge screaming skeleton with shoulder-mounted rocket launchers |
22:31.14 | DrodoEmpire | :p |
22:31.29 | Wormy_ | And also, what other empires gave their territories back? The French and Dutch comkitted war crimes trying to keep their empires |
22:31.31 | Imperios | Meanwhile we spread authoritarianism, tyranny and fear. |
22:31.35 | OluapPlayer | What's not to love |
22:31.42 | DrodoEmpire | Imperios: Yeah that's the issue lmao |
22:31.44 | Imperios | First under the Tsar, teh |
22:31.47 | Imperios | then under the Soviets |
22:31.49 | DrodoEmpire | There isn't much to choose from |
22:31.52 | Wormy_ | And Britain had anti-slave ship policing the waters |
22:32.03 | DrodoEmpire | And that's because Canada is, as of current, a country without a nation |
22:32.08 | Imperios | I suppose we still improved worker rights overall |
22:32.19 | Imperios | Don't you have this maple leaf song |
22:32.24 | Imperios | Maple Leaf Forever |
22:32.25 | DrodoEmpire | We're very young and our country wasn't forged in fire exactly |
22:32.28 | Monet | I recall hearing the petition to abolsih slavery had the most signatures of any petition in British history. |
22:32.28 | *** join/#sporewiki ZF110 (4933de11@gateway/web/freenode/ip.73.51.222.17) |
22:32.39 | Wormy_ | Of course, Britain did awful things in the name of its empire. 150 million people died over it's course. But I think it has some distinctions |
22:32.40 | DrodoEmpire | So, it'll take a while |
22:33.17 | Monet | WOrmy_: "You don't go creating the largest empire in history by being nice about it" |
22:33.31 | ZF110 | Empires are not maintained by timidity. |
22:33.52 | Imperios | Wormy_: The stereotype Russians have of Britain, is that while the Russian Empire and the USSR conquered land honestly, the British and later the USA were deceitful and sneaky about it |
22:34.09 | Imperios | "The cunning Anglo-Saxon" |
22:34.12 | DrodoEmpire | Imperios: "In Flanders Fields" isn't exactly a patriotic song, its a poem for one, and its more an appeal to remembrance than an out and out "CANADA FUCKING RULES" sorta deal |
22:34.13 | Wormy_ | They probably aren't wrong |
22:34.54 | *** join/#sporewiki ZF111 (4933de11@gateway/web/freenode/ip.73.51.222.17) |
22:35.23 | Wormy_ | Imperios: I've got an example of Britain being sneaky with the Germans in the 19th century |
22:35.28 | DrodoEmpire | Despite not being actually forged from fire-- Canada wasn't built out of a revolution nor was it invaded or anything-- the World Wars and our participation in them are a -big deal- over here |
22:35.31 | Imperios | Wormy_: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bRWct0GI3K4 And that's likely the most iconic Russian military march |
22:35.37 | Imperios | What's the British one? |
22:35.46 | DrodoEmpire | But again, pointing to "Canadian culture" is tricky |
22:35.59 | Wormy_ | Scroll down the paragraph about Namibia http://slatestarcodex.com/2014/11/21/the-categories-were-made-for-man-not-man-for-the-categories/ |
22:36.23 | Imperios | These are Cossacks singing BTW |
22:36.44 | Wormy_ | "Namibia is a very weird-looking country with a very thin three-hundred-mile-long panhandle (eg about twice as long as Oklahomaâs). Apparently during the Scramble For Africa, the Germans who colonized Namibia really wanted access to the Zambezi River so they could reach the Indian Ocean and trade their colonial resources. " |
22:36.45 | Imperios | Wormy_: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQQRIz52ZeQ |
22:37.01 | Wormy_ | " They kept pestering the British who colonized Botswana until the Brits finally agreed to give up a tiny but very long strip of territory ending at the riverbank." |
22:37.19 | Wormy_ | " This turned out to be not so useful, as just after Namibiaâs Zambezi access sits Victoria Falls, the largest waterfall in the world â meaning that any Germans who tried to traverse the Zambezi to reach the Indian Ocean would last a matter of minutes before suddenly encountering a four hundred foot drop and falling to pretty much certain death." |
22:37.35 | Imperios | German - I HATE THAT TEAHOG |
22:37.38 | Wormy_ | "The moral of the story is not to pester the British Empire too much, especially if theyâve explored Africa and you havenât." |
22:37.57 | Wormy_ | roasted like British beef |
22:38.37 | Wormy_ | I like how the Borat song still gets used by mistake |
22:38.46 | Monet | Long live the Commonwealth. |
22:38.49 | Imperios | Wormy_: BTW, remember this propaganda video you said you wouldn't watch at uni |
22:38.51 | Imperios | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T65SwzHAbes Here's it |
22:39.05 | Imperios | For some reason I can imagine the message of the video would resonate with the British |
22:39.13 | Monet | The British Empire didn't die, it just federalised. |
22:39.15 | Wormy_ | yeah, I'm very likely monitored there |
22:40.49 | Wormy_ | Not sure what's going on in it but one scene shows the Nazi flag and another a Pride flag |
22:41.39 | Wormy_ | Maybe Brexit will reignite more tracde with the Commonwealth |
22:42.03 | DrodoEmpire | Yeah, definitely will at least with Canada |
22:42.06 | DrodoEmpire | As far as can be seen |
22:42.18 | Wormy_ | Maybe we'll be getting Australian Tim Tams and Candian Tim Horton chains popping up |
22:43.15 | DrodoEmpire | Possibly hur |
22:43.43 | DrodoEmpire | Tom Hortons is like Starbucks except for people who aren't pretentious hipster twats |
22:43.44 | DrodoEmpire | <.< |
22:43.47 | Monet | As long as the trade deals don't allow the hormone-ridden stuff from erm..."certain" countries. |
22:43.47 | DrodoEmpire | *Tim |
22:43.51 | Wormy_ | I could dip a tim tam in a Hortons mocha latte |
22:43.55 | Imperios | Wormy: Activate the closed captions |
22:43.59 | Imperios | It has English subtitles |
22:44.10 | Wormy_ | Which link? |
22:44.17 | Imperios | The video |
22:44.37 | Wormy_ | oh right dur |

22:45.45 | Wormy_ | Yes, seems to be presenting Russia as the workhorse of Eurasia |
22:46.15 | Wormy_ | "Look at all these tribes and their savage ways before Russians came and built on their lands"-kind of message |
22:46.32 | Imperios | Yeah, I imagine Britain feels the same for the Commonwealth |
22:46.36 | Wormy_ | That was a very British thing in the 19th century |
22:46.59 | Wormy_ | Convert the natives to Christianity and build roads for them |
22:47.09 | Wormy_ | *Make them build roads for us |
22:47.11 | OluapPlayer | Technobliterator: It needs a quote at the top of the section |
22:47.18 | Technobliterator | Hmm |
22:48.11 | Imperios | Monet Technobliterator Wormy_: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHfBIO-alTI Ooh there's an English one |
22:48.14 | Imperios | Jo will like this |
22:48.15 | Wormy_ | Imperios: Interests me that in the eatrly 20th century, attitudes to natives started to change. This commander who shot dead nearly a hundred Indian protesters was stripped of his medals and sent home |
22:48.25 | Technobliterator | chek Ancient Three war first |
22:48.28 | Technobliterator | and then I will watch that |
22:48.29 | Wormy_ | Images of the Boer camps shocked British citizens |
22:49.12 | Monet | Imperios: Holy shit I hate this kind of documentary. |
22:49.15 | Wormy_ | And people started to complain jobs at home were being destroyed by the competition |
22:49.47 | Monet | I struggle to manage watching American documentaries |
22:50.21 | *** join/#sporewiki ZF112 (4933de11@gateway/web/freenode/ip.73.51.222.17) |
22:50.36 | Imperios | Technobliterator: Now this is a HUGE change |
22:50.58 | Monet | I'm trying to work out if this video is an informative discussion on terrorism or an excuse for a production company to stroke its graphic design balls. |
22:51.00 | Imperios | https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N7PpdYil-7Y Oh this channel is fucking brutal |
22:51.19 | Imperios | Monet: Both |
22:51.28 | Imperios | Makes propaganda more impresssive |
22:51.39 | Technobliterator | To be fair, Imp, this video doesn't tell me anything I don't already know |
22:51.51 | Wormy_ | Impy: Have you seen the purported North Korean propaganda film about America. It depicted the majority of Americans being homeless |
22:51.57 | Wormy_ | Not sure if its fake though |
22:52.10 | Monet | I'm one minute in and I've paused the video honestly largely because fuck me how much they're throwing in my face. |
22:53.13 | Monet | And I'm with Techno, I've heard all this before |
22:53.42 | Monet | But it infuriated me. |
22:53.55 | Imperios | IT's Russian propaganda |
22:53.59 | Imperios | What would you expect |
22:54.11 | Wormy_ | Wow Otzello will be made great again |
22:54.26 | Monet | Yes, America funded Middle-Eastern radicals...to combat the SOviet Union in the 1980s. |
22:55.50 | Monet | The Mujahidin were praised as heroes back then. https://i.stack.imgur.com/gylUa.jpg here's a closing frame from Rambo III. |
22:57.11 | Monet | Apologies for exploding there. |
22:57.50 | ZF112 | It's cool. Stupid Propaganda brings that out in everyone. |
22:58.15 | Wormy_ | I think its an example of how foreign policy can be unpredictable |
22:58.29 | Monet | Wormy_: Exactly. |
22:58.56 | Wormy_ | The world is a complex place and the social history of the Middle East in particular isn't understood very well |
22:59.15 | Wormy_ | by Western nations |
22:59.47 | Wormy_ | That's one thing I learned from Adam Curtis |
22:59.53 | Monet | International relations is messy. Every time discussions of American interventionalism are brought up, what is conveniently left out is 1) how damn paranoid the State was of Communism 2) the guys they intervened against were usually professed Marxists or pro-communist. |
23:00.39 | Technobliterator | I'm not sure how that justifies it, but ok |
23:00.43 | Monet | Beware the half-truth, it can do more damage than an outright lie. |
23:01.17 | Monet | Technobliterator: I'm not saying it does but it does provide background for -why- the States did it. |
23:02.13 | Monet | Otherwise what you have is card-carrying imperialism. |
23:04.02 | Monet | The thing is we were all born after the Soviet Union. |
23:05.05 | Monet | It's difficult to get across how terrifying the threat of communism was becuase quite often it comes out as being crazy.. |
23:05.41 | Monet | And maybe things like the witch-hunts under Joe McCarthy were indeed crazy. |
23:09.02 | Monet | (again really sorry, boy that propaganda really set me off) |
23:09.20 | Wormy_ | The US had plenty too |
23:10.02 | Wormy_ | I feel as though the word is edging back to a cold war |
23:10.09 | Wormy_ | *world |
23:10.23 | Imperios | Monet: http://cs7.pikabu.ru/images/previews_comm/2014-08_5/1408638984754.jpg |
23:11.02 | Monet | All hail the God-Emperor Putin. |
23:14.33 | Imperios | DrodoEmpire: http://cs.pikabu.ru/post_img/2013/10/30/12/1383159959_2103516880.jpg |
23:16.02 | Wormy_ | not enough maple leaf |
23:16.05 | DrodoEmpire | ayy |
23:43.25 | Monet | http://www.therobotsvoice.com/2010/06/8_of_professor_xs_many_many_dick_moves.php the side of Charles Xavier most people don't know |
23:45.56 | Monet | SO turns out we can blame Xavier, Stark Mr. Fantastic and Dr. Strange for Planet Hulk and World War Hulk. |
23:58.49 | DrodoEmpire | https://www.thestar.com/news/canada/2017/03/24/lorne-grabher-loses-personalized-licence-plate.html I fucking hate my country sometimes |
23:59.17 | DrodoEmpire | I should apply for a custom license plate blazoned with "FAGGOT" just in protest of this bullshit |
