| 00:04 | <@Vornicus> | ARG ARG ARG |
| 00:04 | <@Vornicus> | Too damn many games I want to remake. |
| 00:05 | <@ToxicFrog> | Man, the Halo 2 installer does not look healthy when running on XP. |
| 00:05 | <@Vornicus> | heh |
| 00:06 | | * Vornicus has found himself writing (and nearly succeeding) a combat and AI thing for King's Bounty. |
| 00:10 | <@ToxicFrog> | ..ahahaha |
| 00:10 | <@ToxicFrog> | + [p. 228] "'We have the gloomy and purposeless trousers of Uncle Vanya,' said one, doubtfully." |
| 00:10 | <@ToxicFrog> | Uncle Vanya is the other great Chekhov play. "Gloomy and purposeless" sums up much Chekhovian drama quite accurately. The Russian word is "toska" -- a sort of weary, faded ennui. |
| 00:10 | <@ToxicFrog> | Uncle Vanya's trousers, interestingly enough, are not actually featured in either of Chekhov's plays. As Terry pointed out on afp: "Well, yes. Vimes got them." |
| 00:15 | <@ToxicFrog> | Vornicus: that reminds me, I need to come up with a final project for AI. |
| 00:16 | <@ToxicFrog> | I have considered something that solves some game-related problem. |
| 00:16 | <@ToxicFrog> | Nethack-o-matic would be cool, but I think a bit large for a last-two-weeks-of-class thing. |
| 00:16 | <@McMartin> | Especially since nobody's ever made a remotely competent one before, ever. |
| 00:18 | <@ToxicFrog> | Yeah. |
| 00:18 | <@ToxicFrog> | Although there is a rogue-o-matic. |
| 00:18 | <@McMartin> | And lots of Angband cyborgs. |
| 00:18 | <@ToxicFrog> | And I believe there's a promising nethack-o-matic under construction. |
| 00:18 | <@McMartin> | We need to make a zomgband at some point. |
| 00:19 | <@McMartin> | The l4mer hits! The l4mer r0xx0rz j00! J00 feel unl33t! |
| 00:19 | <@Vornicus> | zomg |
| 00:20 | <@ToxicFrog> | I would hold out for zomghack, but there's a nice resonance with "zangband" and, for all that I dislike its gameplay, *band has a much, much cleaner codebase. |
| 00:21 | <@McMartin> | The initial inspiration of zomgband was in fact my consistent misreading of zangband that way. |
| 00:21 | <@Vornicus> | TF: Had I spent more than cursory amounts of time on either VornMoO or VornSettlers, I would throw you a bot interface and say "code me" |
| 00:26 | <@ToxicFrog> | (there are alternatives, like a pure research project, but I like implementation dammit) |
