| 02:15 | | * SouthernMyst waves |
| 02:15 | | * SouthernMyst sighs at her router |
| 02:16 | | * Vornicus bites the router. |
| 02:17 | < SouthernMyst> | I know it's not code, but I don't know who else to ask, so hopefully one of you bright people can help me... |
| 02:20 | < SouthernMyst> | I've plugged in my wireless router, reset it, connected to it, (connected also via network cable), opened its web-based setup page, renamed it, reconnected to it, set a WPA2 key, ... and can't connect now. |
| 02:20 | < SouthernMyst> | I've just changed it to a WPA key, but that doesn't look like it's doing anything, either. |
| 02:21 | <@Derakon> | You should be able to reset it to factory defaults by pressing buttons/unplugging it in certain ways. |
| 02:21 | < SouthernMyst> | Yes, I did that at the beginning. |
| 02:21 | < SouthernMyst> | And then I wanted to secure it with a password, rather than just have a wide-open network. |
| 02:21 | <@Derakon> | Right. |
| 02:22 | < SouthernMyst> | Did I miss something? |
| 02:22 | <@Derakon> | Okay, I though the question was "waugh my router is useless to me now how do I fix it?" when it's actually "okay, how do I configure this so it actually does what I want?" |
| 02:23 | < SouthernMyst> | Sorry, didn't give an actual question, did I? My bad. Yes, did I miss something in the giving it a password bit? |
| 02:23 | <@Derakon> | Networking is not my strong suit, I'm afraid. |
| 02:25 | < SouthernMyst> | Ah, well, thanks hun |
| 02:25 | <@Consul> | If you stick around, someone will probably see this who can help. |
| 02:26 | <@Consul> | In fact, you got me thinking I should get my wireless network better secured. |
| 02:28 | < SouthernMyst> | heh. |
| 02:29 | <@gnolam> | Pfft. If people secured their networks, where then would I get all my free internet access? ;) |
| 02:29 | < SouthernMyst> | well, seeing as I'm borrowing the net while visiting relatives, I'll delegate the "sticking around" bit to TW, rather than leave this all hooked up in my uncle's office constantly. ;) |

| 06:40 | <@Vornicus> | hey Janus! |
| 06:41 | < Janus> | Been a long time! |
| 06:42 | <@Vornicus> | Yes it has. |
| 06:42 | <@Vornicus> | How is that game you were making coming? |
| 06:43 | < Janus> | ... what game? (that can't be a good sign) |
| 06:43 | <@Vornicus> | Heh, join the club. |
| 06:44 | | * Janus gets a T-shirt! |
| 06:45 | <@Vornicus> | Honestly I can't remember anything particular about it. There was an awesome bit of continuous-world pathfinding around round objects that I helped you with, and some random thing where you got OpenGL to draw an arena wall, but that's... all I remember. |
| 06:46 | < Janus> | Oooooh yeah, that! Aha. I think I used SDL to render that with. I remember since it rendered at -2 frames per second or something. |
| 06:46 | <@Vornicus> | heh |
| 06:47 | | * Vornicus has also hopped from project to project. |
| 06:48 | <@Vornicus> | Right now I'm working on a remake of the 1990 strategy game King's Bounty. |
| 06:48 | <@Vornicus> | (which has gotten a bit of a revival lately) |
| 06:48 | < Janus> | King's Bounty... (wikipedia, up and at 'em!) |
| 06:49 | <@Vornicus> | You are a powerful bounty hunter. You throw together an army, fight baddies, capture castles and villains, and find the scepter of order, all on a time limit. |
| 06:49 | <@Vornicus> | If you've played an HoMM game, it's like that, except you're the only hero and you don't get to develop castles. |
| 06:49 | < Janus> | King Maximus doesn't like to be kept waiting, I see! |
| 06:50 | <@Vornicus> | Made by the same guys. |
| 06:56 | < Janus> | Looks interestin', from what I see. Can't wait to play it, sometime~ |
| 06:57 | | * Janus has no idea what a HoMM game is, though. Except that there's more than one hero, and they are also urban planners. |

| 06:58 | <@Vornicus> | Heroes of Might And Magic: you control a kingdom, and can hire heroes to command armies. |
| 06:59 | <@Vornicus> | You develop your castle to produce more, and more advanced, units, and send your heroes out to find treasures, fight other heroes, and conquer other castles. |
| 07:01 | < Janus> | Ah. Yeah, I've heard of that name before. I thought that was some arcade hack and slash game though. I must be getting my name and description wires crossed. |
| 07:03 | <@Vornicus> | Might and Magic is something different. |
| 07:05 | <@ToxicFrog> | Although it's still not a hack and slash, really. |
| 07:05 | <@Vornicus> | No. |
| 07:05 | <@Vornicus> | Wizards and Warriors is hack and slash. |
| 07:05 | <@ToxicFrog> | It's a...uniquely demented series of RPGs. |
| 07:06 | | * Vornicus hasn't played M&M |
| 07:06 | <@AnnoDomini> | I think I played the demo of one of them. |
| 07:06 | <@AnnoDomini> | I concur that it's... special. |

| 13:58 | <@Reiver> | Not Kings Bounty? |
| 14:02 | <@McMartin> | ? |
| 14:03 | <@McMartin> | And yes, Ignatia and Bridge Spell rantings were both Let's Play King's Bounty |
| 14:22 | <@Doctor_Nick> | ;o |
| 14:22 | <@Doctor_Nick> | :3 |
| 15:05 | <@Vornicus-Latens> | but, they did break the game. Using the classic trick, though, not anything with Bridge. |
| 16:44 | <@ToxicFrog> | Yeah. It's Clone and Time Stop that broke it. |
| 16:45 | <@McMartin> | Clone isn't nearly as awesome without Raise Control. |
| 16:46 | <@McMartin> | Time Stop seems less like breaking it and more like "Absolutely necessary if you want to actually finish the game completely" |
| 16:48 | <@ToxicFrog> | Mmm, true. |
