00:07 | < Dukayn> | That's the same one |
00:07 | < Dukayn> | Just with the sword sheathed |

00:19 | < Ceddo> | In sand green? ^^ |
00:19 | < MittenNinja> | of course :) |
00:23 | < Ceddo> | Okay. |
00:23 | < Ceddo> | Can you guys do me a favor? |
00:23 | < Ceddo> | I need you to watch a video. |
00:23 | < MittenNinja> | sure |
00:23 | < Ceddo> | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aQethZBldHs |
00:28 | < MittenNinja> | meh |
00:28 | < MittenNinja> | wasnt really much substance to that |
00:28 | < Ceddo> | No chords struck? :( |
00:28 | < MittenNinja> | not really |
00:28 | < MittenNinja> | never was a big MMO guy |
00:28 | < Ceddo> | Oh well. |
00:28 | < Ceddo> | Oh. |
00:28 | < Ceddo> | I get it. |
00:29 | < Ceddo> | You thought that was a legit review video of Tera. |
00:29 | < MittenNinja> | no |
00:29 | < MittenNinja> | its just all humor thats aimed at MMO players |
00:29 | < MittenNinja> | i understand it |
00:29 | < MittenNinja> | i just dont think its funny |
00:30 | < Ceddo> | Mhmm. :( |
00:30 | < MittenNinja> | its like someone making a joke about a play on medical terms when your an engineer |
00:30 | < Ceddo> | Gotcha. |
00:30 | < Ceddo> | Oh well. |
00:31 | < Dukayn> | Nah, most of the jokes aren't actually MMO specific |
00:31 | < Dukayn> | Mostly it's about how they want to rape their character, actually :P |
00:31 | < Ceddo> | :D |
00:31 | < MittenNinja> | well yeah |
00:31 | < Ceddo> | It's making fun of "those games" being way to ... "sexy". |
00:32 | < Ceddo> | For a lack of a better word. |
00:32 | < Ceddo> | Qty: 2,970 (x2970) <--- srsly. |
00:33 | < Ceddo> | "BUY ALL OF OUR STOCK OR ... FUCK OFF." |
00:33 | < Dukayn> | better than, say. Qty: 1 |

00:34 | < Dukayn> | who needs 3,000 trans blue flowers? |
00:34 | < Ceddo> | Also, let's check for T Pieces! |
00:34 | < Dukayn> | LEGO gay pride parade? |
00:34 | < Ceddo> | Qty: 8,900 (x100) - Each: US $0.09 |
00:34 | < Ceddo> | COOL. |

00:36 | < Ceddo> | Oh, THAT is actually cool. |
00:36 | < Ceddo> | 3mm rigid hose for 30 cents, 21L. |
00:37 | < Ceddo> | Dukey, I'll send you some rigid hose. |
00:37 | < Ceddo> | It's awesome. |
00:41 | < Dukayn> | kk |
00:42 | < Dukayn> | MittenNinja: I LDD'd up your Osprey body. I like it. |
00:42 | < Dukayn> | With your legs, too. |
00:42 | < MittenNinja> | Nice |
00:42 | < MittenNinja> | glad you do |
00:42 | < Dukayn> | And I think I found a solution without the 1x3 plate to hide the t-piece |
00:42 | < Dukayn> | http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/NewOsprey.png |
00:43 | < Dukayn> | I forgot to remove the taps before taking the screenshot but they will be gone too |
00:44 | < MittenNinja> | lookin good man |
00:44 | < Ceddo> | Nice taps, bro. |
00:45 | < Dukayn> | Replaced tapes with 1x2 tiles |
00:47 | < Dukayn> | taps, too |
00:47 | < MittenNinja> | lol |
00:47 | < Dukayn> | ok AFK, tidying up the house a bit |
00:47 | | Dukayn is now known as Dukayn[AFK] |
00:52 | < Ceddo> | SO. |
00:52 | < Ceddo> | My plan for tomorrow: Buying 400 1x2 masonry bricks. |
00:52 | < Ceddo> | I wonder how far that gets me. |
00:53 | < Ceddo> | 7 bricks tall, makes ... 114 wide. |
00:53 | < Ceddo> | Should be good enough for some walls. |
00:53 | < Ceddo> | Stretch them with regular bricks. |
00:55 | < MittenNinja> | for sure |
01:00 | < Ceddo> | Have you seen the masonry bricks? |
01:00 | < Ceddo> | They are beuatiful. |
01:01 | < MittenNinja> | i have not |
01:01 | < Ceddo> | http://www.bricklink.com/PL/98283.jpg?1 |
01:01 | < Ceddo> | I can get them in tan and in light gray. |
01:02 | < Ceddo> | Oh, AND medium flesh. |
01:02 | < MittenNinja> | Nice! |
01:02 | < MittenNinja> | I have seen those |
01:02 | < MittenNinja> | those are super slick |
01:02 | < Ceddo> | Yeah. |
01:02 | < Ceddo> | And my local store has all three colours in more than 1500 each. |
01:03 | < MittenNinja> | nice |
01:03 | < Ceddo> | So I'mma go there, put a 50EUR bill on the counter and haggle. |
01:14 | < Dukayn[AFK]> | Yep, I really like the new Osprey torso |
01:16 | | Dukayn[AFK] is now known as Dukayn |
01:17 | < Dukayn> | And the legs |
01:19 | < MittenNinja> | awesome. Glad to hear it! |
01:19 | < Dukayn> | Hmm, I need a couple 3300s |
01:20 | < Ceddo> | http://www.mobileframehangar.com/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=1489 |
01:20 | < MittenNinja> | i dont know if i even have any of those |
01:20 | < Ceddo> | Weapons! |
01:21 | < Dukayn> | yay a whole 3 stores in Aus have them in black lol |
01:21 | < MittenNinja> | nice |
01:21 | < MittenNinja> | i like |
01:22 | < Dukayn> | It's for the SSR pod |
01:23 | < MittenNinja> | couldnt you just use 4 cheese wedges? |
01:24 | < Ceddo> | Well, he has 2 studs to attach to. |
01:24 | < Ceddo> | So he'd need a 2x2 plate and 4 cheese cakes first. |
01:24 | < Ceddo> | And when we're talking cheese cake, afny isn't far. |
01:24 | < Ceddo> | He eats that stuff like you and I breathe air. |
01:24 | < Ceddo> | No joke. |
01:24 | < Ceddo> | Afny loves his cheese cake. |
01:25 | < MittenNinja> | who doesnt? |
01:27 | < Soren> | I can name a couple people |
01:27 | < Soren> | It's unusual, though |
01:27 | < Soren> | Things that are awesome: cherry cheese cake. |
01:28 | < Soren> | I don't know what was in it, but I suspect some kind of tart cherry pure?. It was pretty impressive. |
01:29 | < Soren> | https://www.dropbox.com/s/ypkk5ieeimff36i/I-ST-04Y%20Super%20Strider%20Command.J PG |
01:29 | < MittenNinja> | That my friend... is boss |
01:29 | < Ceddo> | Good god, Soren. |
01:29 | < Soren> | ty |
01:29 | < Ceddo> | If I wouldn't loathe red. |
01:29 | | * Soren bows |
01:29 | < Ceddo> | I'd cream. |
01:30 | < Ceddo> | BUT I DO. |
01:30 | < Ceddo> | SO hah. |
01:30 | < Dukayn> | Oh ho ho |
01:30 | < Soren> | I think it's doable in a couple of different colors. |
01:30 | < Soren> | blue, for sure, white. |
01:30 | < Ceddo> | So are you. |
01:30 | < Dukayn> | LOL |
01:30 | < Soren> | Whatever you can get both the head and the magnet bracket in. |
01:30 | < Ceddo> | Do you have a white foot like that? |
01:30 | < Ceddo> | I am tempted to try one out. |
01:31 | < Ceddo> | Ah, fuggit. |
01:31 | < Ceddo> | I HAVE 5 COMPANIES OF 8 FRAMES. |
01:31 | < MittenNinja> | what piece number is the head? |
01:31 | < Ceddo> | I don't need to start another. |
01:31 | < Ceddo> | (I want to, though. And I feel bad for it.) |
01:31 | < Ceddo> | Soren, can we make a pact? |
01:31 | < Dukayn> | Ced's got the sickness |
01:31 | < Ceddo> | Come end of June, we sit down and talk. You and I. |
01:31 | < Ceddo> | No, wait. |
01:31 | < Soren> | hrm. |
01:31 | < Ceddo> | You're gone by then. |
01:32 | < Soren> | yeah |
01:32 | < Ceddo> | Fuck. |
01:32 | < Ceddo> | Okay. |
01:32 | < Ceddo> | I'll be alone with my tears, then. |
01:32 | < Soren> | hmm? |
01:32 | < Ceddo> | I need a company for the Conclave of the Risen Moon. |
01:32 | < Ceddo> | white/black/blue Ijads. |
01:32 | < Ceddo> | So, basically, "Vanilla". |
01:32 | < Ceddo> | They need to compare to the Most Understanding Council. |
01:33 | < Ceddo> | But be different at the same time. |
01:33 | < Ceddo> | I was pondering lots and lots of tubes and such. |
01:33 | < Ceddo> | Tubes and domes and cannisters. |
01:33 | < Soren> | look for the trans-blue hoses form the Millennium Falcon sets. |
01:34 | < Soren> | Get a bunch, then razor them to length. |
01:34 | < Soren> | That'll set you up. |
01:34 | < Soren> | Also, I just remembered, I can totally do one of these in white. |
01:34 | < Soren> | brb |
01:34 | < MittenNinja> | I'm working on Ijad that look more like this: http://th01.deviantart.net/fs14/PRE/i/2007/039/8/f/I_Mech_by_flyingdebris.jpg |
01:35 | < Soren> | to which I say: rock on. |
01:35 | < Soren> | very For The Barrel |
01:36 | < MittenNinja> | Never heard of it |
01:36 | < Dukayn> | LOL, Apple mech. |
01:37 | < Dukayn> | Ceddo: you fucked up |
01:37 | < Ceddo> | What? D: |
01:37 | < Dukayn> | "nd now, VAL is proud to announce the VAL-03 Motherland Series of weapon systems." |
01:37 | < Dukayn> | on the Frontline series thread |
01:38 | < Ceddo> | Reload. ;) |
01:39 | < Dukayn> | Ah, the WHOLE fluff was wrong LOL |
01:39 | < Dukayn> | I thought it was just that line. |
01:39 | < MittenNinja> | lol |
01:40 | < afny> | MittenNinja, checkit: http://www.flickr.com/photos/jed_september/7073429919/in/photostream |
01:40 | < afny> | that mac-mech reminded me of this |
01:40 | < MittenNinja> | yeah that saffir is pretty sweet |
01:41 | < afny> | A company of saffirs and soren's zealot smashers would be pretty sweet |
01:41 | < MittenNinja> | i want the arms to be like 2 plates thick though |
01:41 | < afny> | safir* |
01:41 | < MittenNinja> | and the body 3-5 |
01:41 | < afny> | you could use the MGN arms |
01:41 | < MittenNinja> | im going to use those hinge plates for sure |
01:43 | < Ceddo> | I wonder it I can build such a thin 'frame and still have it look good. |
01:44 | < Dukayn> | Ceddo: Did you end up seeing the pic of the Nightingale last night? |
01:44 | < Ceddo> | Nah, sadly not. Shoot! |
01:44 | < Dukayn> | ah cool |
01:44 | < Dukayn> | I modded it a bit from the original thread |
01:44 | < Dukayn> | http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/NightingaleAlpha.png |
01:44 | < Dukayn> | Also, I can't believe I one-shot Trilly's frame :D |
01:45 | < Dukayn> | He's gonna be piiiiissed |
01:45 | < Ceddo> | It's what he gets. |
01:45 | < Ceddo> | Good job, dude. |
01:45 | < Dukayn> | Heh |
01:45 | < Ceddo> | You flat out gutted his 4 'frame column. |
01:46 | < Ceddo> | And you still have one 'gale to go. |
01:46 | < Dukayn> | Well he's lost a whole frame and one other gun |
01:46 | < Dukayn> | Yep |
01:46 | < Ceddo> | No, an SH. |
01:46 | < Dukayn> | Yes, SH |
01:46 | < Dukayn> | MOAR POWAH |
01:46 | < Dukayn> | 'gales need more dakka |
01:46 | < MittenNinja> | ceddo |
01:46 | < Ceddo> | Put a 2 Spot on another target, Dukey. |
01:46 | < Ceddo> | Yeppers, here! Alive and kickin'! |
01:46 | < MittenNinja> | anything you want besides palm trees and tires? |
01:47 | < Ceddo> | Lemme think. |
01:47 | < Ceddo> | Trans clear, trans blue, trans yellow, trans purple, trans orange, trans neon orange, trans pink. :D |
01:47 | < Ceddo> | Or dark blue. |
01:48 | < MittenNinja> | i have some dark blue i can send your way |
01:48 | < Ceddo> | Sweet! |
01:48 | < Ceddo> | Firing effects for the Ijads. |
01:48 | < MittenNinja> | wait, trans-dark blue? |
01:48 | < MittenNinja> | or just dark blue |
01:48 | < Ceddo> | Trans blue. |
01:48 | < MittenNinja> | hrm |
01:48 | < Ceddo> | And dark blue, solid. |
01:48 | < MittenNinja> | maybe not as much as i thought |
01:48 | < Ceddo> | So, both. :D |
01:48 | < MittenNinja> | ah |
01:48 | < MittenNinja> | ok |
01:48 | < MittenNinja> | i have solids |
01:48 | < Ceddo> | trans dark blue works, too. |
01:48 | < Ceddo> | Sweet! |
01:48 | < Ceddo> | I love dark blue. |
01:48 | < Ceddo> | Such a nice colour. |
01:49 | < Ceddo> | You have seen my 13th Guard, eh? |
01:49 | < Ceddo> | Dark Blue + Dark Bley works nicely. |
01:49 | < MittenNinja> | yeah it does |
01:49 | < Ceddo> | Oh, Mittens. |
01:50 | < Ceddo> | Do you wanna do me a BIG favor? :D |
01:50 | < MittenNinja> | sure? |
01:50 | < Ceddo> | With such a vast industrial support, VMW can field it's own mercenaries. Organized in combat groups, Vesopia Military Contracts offers their well-trained pilots and their equipment for garrision duty and patrols to just about anyone. |
01:50 | < Ceddo> | Before the SU closed the transit gate for VMW, they would even translocate to nearby systems to support local efforts. As a matter of fact, there is currently the VMC CG #13 stuck on Orion 6 |
01:51 | < Ceddo> | The VMC Combat Group #13 is all yours. |
01:51 | < MittenNinja> | Awesome. Thanks man. |
01:51 | < Ceddo> | The favor is: Build it. :D |
01:51 | < Dukayn> | Bahaha |
01:52 | < MittenNinja> | hahaha |
01:52 | < MittenNinja> | I can do that :) |
01:52 | < Ceddo> | You are fgree to pick designs, rework them, aslong as they resemble the source. |
01:53 | < MittenNinja> | sounds good |
01:53 | < Ceddo> | As for colours, VMC usually uses dark/light grey and tan, with few black accents. Some brown here and there. |
01:53 | < Ceddo> | So, a desert colour scheme. |
01:53 | < Ceddo> | But regional camouflage is possible. |
01:53 | < Ceddo> | Usually, the VMC fields variants of the same frame with one or two oddballs, that are either being fieldtested or mission specific. |
01:54 | < Ceddo> | VMC also has the questionable role of taking new VAL and VMW equipment to the combat. |
01:54 | < Ceddo> | So, you are fairly free. |
01:54 | < Ceddo> | If you are looking for an Iconic 'frame, it's the VMW-03 Gadian. |
01:55 | < Ceddo> | Also, I have no idea what they are doing on Orion 6. |
01:55 | < Ceddo> | They could support any side, really. |
01:55 | < Ceddo> | SU, so they are allowed back home. |
01:55 | < Ceddo> | Ijad, because some of them might be symbiont carriers. |
01:55 | < Ceddo> | FC, because there's someone who pays well. |
01:55 | < Ceddo> | Pretty vast field for you to play around with. :D |
01:56 | < MittenNinja> | Yeah. I'll have to do some research on frames :) |
01:56 | < Ceddo> | http://www.mobileframehangar.com/viewtopic.php?f=9&t=1003&p=3526#p3466 <-- Here's a complete inventory. |
01:56 | < Dukayn> | That Gadian is sweet |
01:56 | < Ceddo> | It's the only 'frame I have that can facepalm. :D |
01:57 | < Dukayn> | LOL |
01:57 | < Ceddo> | Lemme show you. |
01:57 | < Dukayn> | I semi-based the Nightingale head off that :) |
01:58 | < Ceddo> | I love that head so much, I used it again on the X Chubs. :D |
01:58 | < Dukayn> | It's neat |
02:00 | < Ceddo> | http://www.ced23ric.de/stuff/mf0/vmw03_gadian_b6.png |
02:01 | < Dukayn> | Hahahaha. I shall call him "Jean-Luc" |
02:01 | < Ceddo> | Bwahaha. |
02:01 | < Ceddo> | Colonel Jean-Card Pieluc. |
02:02 | < Dukayn> | Bahahaha I love Ponyo. "RESPECT YOUR FATHER!" |
02:02 | < Ceddo> | So ... 3am. |
02:02 | < Ceddo> | We're out of beer. |
02:02 | < Ceddo> | Out of tobacco. |
02:02 | < Ceddo> | Might call it an early night tonight. |
02:03 | < Ceddo> | I was appalled to day. |
02:03 | < Dukayn> | 3am is... early. |
02:03 | < Dukayn> | IN THE MORNING |
02:03 | < Ceddo> | Me and the two roomies, we killed two cases of beer and 4 six packs. |
02:03 | < Ceddo> | ... since Sunday. |
02:03 | < Ceddo> | And a case of beer is 20 bottles, half litres. |
02:03 | < Ceddo> | I feel ashamed. |
02:03 | < Dukayn> | LOL |
02:03 | < Ceddo> | But I was never drunk. |
02:04 | < Dukayn> | Our cartons are 24 bottles, 330mL (or thereabouts) |
02:04 | < Ceddo> | See, that's ~7.5 litres. |
02:04 | < Ceddo> | A case here is 10 litres. |
02:04 | < Ceddo> | And we had two cases, so 20 litres. Or 40 beers. |
02:04 | < Dukayn> | 350mL actually |
02:05 | < Dukayn> | just checked |
02:05 | < Dukayn> | so, 8.5L |
02:05 | < Ceddo> | And then, those 4 sixpacks of 330ml bottles. |
02:05 | < Dukayn> | But yes, you had lots of beer |
02:05 | < Ceddo> | So bad. |
02:05 | < Dukayn> | But you're German |
02:05 | < Dukayn> | It's all good :P |
02:05 | < Ceddo> | AND I DIDN'T EVEN NOTICE. |
02:05 | < Ceddo> | UNTIL NOW. |
02:05 | < Ceddo> | AS I SAW THE EMPTIES. |
02:05 | < Ceddo> | AND THE LACK OF FULL BOTTLES. |
02:05 | < Ceddo> | The sight was horrible. |
02:05 | < Ceddo> | So many bottles of beer. |
02:05 | < Dukayn> | I think when it comes to drinking promiscuity, the Germans, Aussies and Irish are definitely right up there. |
02:05 | < Ceddo> | None of them would ... pop. Open and release the goodness. |
02:06 | < Ceddo> | Oh yeah. |
02:06 | < Ceddo> | You and I could probably run up a decent tab. |
02:06 | < Ceddo> | Anyway. I wanna get up at 9am. |
02:06 | < Dukayn> | I can imagine some kind of combined festival with all 3 put together and the rivers would run brown with beer. |
02:06 | < Ceddo> | Leave at 9:30. |
02:06 | < Ceddo> | Hit the store at 10:15. |
02:06 | < Ceddo> | Be back at 11. |
02:06 | < Dukayn> | Fair enough. |
02:06 | < Ceddo> | Wake up my roomie. |
02:06 | < Ceddo> | Drink coffee. :D |
02:06 | < Dukayn> | GO TO SLEEP YOU CRAZY BASTARD |
02:07 | < Ceddo> | But ... I am not tired. |
02:07 | < Ceddo> | It's not 5am yet. |
02:07 | < Dukayn> | lol |
02:07 | < Ceddo> | Totally working on Canadian timezone again, fuck. :D |
02:07 | < Ceddo> | Late shifts at work kill me. |
02:07 | < Ceddo> | I wake up at 11:30 or so. |
02:08 | < Ceddo> | And I start at 2:30pm. |
02:08 | < Ceddo> | I am really just waiting for Soren. |
02:08 | < Ceddo> | I wanna see the Superstrider in white. |
02:08 | < Ceddo> | SOREN. |
02:08 | < Dukayn> | Hehe |
02:08 | < Dukayn> | My kid gets me up at 6am every weekday |
02:08 | < Ceddo> | Ha! |
02:08 | < Dukayn> | Wife does weekends so I get 7.30 or 8.00 |
02:08 | < Ceddo> | You could almost tug me in, then! :D |
02:09 | < Dukayn> | TUCK |
02:09 | < Dukayn> | TUCK YOU IN |
02:09 | < Ceddo> | Sorry. |
02:09 | < Dukayn> | LOL |
02:09 | < Ceddo> | I AM SORRY. |
02:09 | < Ceddo> | FUCK. |
02:09 | < Ceddo> | GRAMMAR NAZI. |
02:09 | < Ceddo> | ... this is actually hilarious. |
02:09 | < Dukayn> | :O |
02:09 | < Dukayn> | THA 'N' WORD |
02:09 | < Ceddo> | A German calling an Ozzy a grammar nazi. |
02:09 | < Dukayn> | heh |
02:09 | < afny> | well "tug me in" sounds a little...sensual. |
02:09 | < Ceddo> | *checks that off the bucket list* |
02:09 | < Ceddo> | Afny would know. |
02:09 | < Dukayn> | I thought you got arrested if you used the Nazi word in Germany |
02:09 | < Ceddo> | He worked at THE DOCKS. |
02:10 | | * afny foghorn |
02:10 | < Ceddo> | Dukayn: Nah. :D |
02:10 | < Ceddo> | You shouldn't raise your right arm too high, though. |
02:10 | < Dukayn> | haha |
02:10 | < Dukayn> | hailing a cab must be a bitch |
02:10 | < Ceddo> | We wave friendly! |
02:10 | < Dukayn> | "NO DON'T TAKE ME AWAY I JUST TO RIDE IN A TAXI" |
02:10 | < Dukayn> | just want* |
02:10 | < Ceddo> | We wave like people that don't want to hail the Fuhrer. |
02:11 | < Dukayn> | it's the heel click |
02:11 | < Ceddo> | It's quite funny and always looks dumb. |
02:11 | < Dukayn> | skip that, you're fine |
02:11 | < Ceddo> | Usually you just LOOK AT THEM INTENTLY. |
02:11 | < Ceddo> | The drivers know. |
02:11 | < Dukayn> | also, how DO you signal 3? |
02:11 | < Dukayn> | Inglorious Basterds has me curious |
02:11 | < Ceddo> | Thumb, index, middle finger. |
02:11 | < Dukayn> | Ha, that's bizarre. |
02:12 | < Ceddo> | Nah, it's ergonomic. |
02:12 | < Dukayn> | feels weird to me |
02:12 | < Ceddo> | The index and middle finger are attached to the same sinews. |
02:12 | < Dukayn> | Also you can't flip people the bird in brackets :P |
02:12 | < Ceddo> | So are the small and ring finger. |
02:12 | < Ceddo> | So we count: |
02:12 | < Ceddo> | One - Thumb. (Sideways, not up.) |
02:13 | < Ceddo> | Two - Thumb, Index. |
02:13 | < Ceddo> | Three: Thumb, Index, Middle. |
02:13 | < Dukayn> | Yeah when counting out like that I use it |
02:13 | < Ceddo> | Four - All fingers, thumb in. |
02:13 | < Dukayn> | but to signal a '3' I just use the 3 middle fingers |
02:13 | < Ceddo> | Five: WE RAISE OUR FOOT. |
02:13 | < Dukayn> | with the thumb holding the pinky down |
02:13 | < afny> | that does seem a bit weird, though, doesn't it |
02:13 | < Ceddo> | See, but you need to hold the pinky down because the ring finger wants to pull it up. |
02:14 | < afny> | I mean ced's way makes a lot more sense intuitively |
02:14 | < Dukayn> | When counting sure |
02:14 | < Dukayn> | but switching from 3 to 4 is easier the other way |
02:14 | < Dukayn> | just release the pinky |
02:14 | < Ceddo> | So we skip that, leave the pinky alone and use index/middle (which is a unit) and thumb (which is seperate). |
02:14 | < Dukayn> | also I don't know anyone who got RSI from counting to 3 :P |
02:15 | < Ceddo> | We count that way because it's ergonomic and based on how the sinews in the hand work. That's pretty much it. |
02:15 | < Ceddo> | EFFICIENCY, my friend. |
02:15 | < Dukayn> | WOW HOW ODD FOR A GERMAN |
02:15 | < Dukayn> | :P |
02:15 | < afny> | haha |
02:15 | < Ceddo> | I know. |
02:15 | < Ceddo> | Back in Canada, people actually called me into brainstorming sessions with the words: "GET THE GERMAN IN HERE, WE NEED MORE EFFICIENCY." |
02:15 | < Ceddo> | But they also called me Mr. Germany. So that was alright. |
02:16 | < Ceddo> | I made a 30 minute presentation of my backpack including contents at a bar once. |
02:16 | < Ceddo> | People were in awe. |
02:17 | < Dukayn> | lol |
02:17 | < Ceddo> | "Now, you say, that's all nice and dandy with that emergency whistle and the entire mobile office, but what if my car breaks down? - FEAR NOT! *opens another pocket and pulls out entire toolkit*" |
02:17 | < Ceddo> | Fun times were had by all. |
02:17 | < Ceddo> | We're riding to a gig, and I joined last minute, because I stumbled over the band, buddies of mine. |
02:18 | < Ceddo> | The lead singer wants t owrite the set list, in the car, and it's 9pm, and dark out. |
02:18 | < Ceddo> | So I handed him a clip-on flashlight, a clipboard, paper, sharpies, gum and some gaffa tape for later. |
02:18 | < afny> | what was the gum for |
02:19 | < afny> | did he have bad breath |
02:19 | < Ceddo> | He stared at me. "Dude. No one has that casually in his backpack." - "Well, they're not German, are they?" - "Point taken." |
02:19 | < Ceddo> | He was a cook and just got off work. Lots of garlic. |
02:19 | < MittenNinja> | my old roomate would totally have that on hand |
02:19 | < Ceddo> | Gum? :C |
02:19 | < Ceddo> | * :D |
02:20 | < Ceddo> | Afny, you know everything. |
02:20 | < Ceddo> | What are Medabots? |
02:20 | < Ceddo> | Dukayn! |
02:20 | < Ceddo> | LISTEN HERE! |
02:20 | < Dukayn> | Ceddo! |
02:20 | < Ceddo> | IT'S YOUR GO! |
02:20 | < afny> | It was a kids anime |
02:20 | < Ceddo> | None of Trilly's actions apply! |
02:21 | < afny> | sort of like pokemon but with little robots I guess |
02:21 | < Ceddo> | You one-shotted his frame, he loses all actions and does not get to move or fire. |
02:21 | < afny> | I dont know why they think one of my frames looks like one |
02:21 | < Dukayn> | Sweet |
02:21 | < Ceddo> | afny: Ah, thanks. |
02:21 | < Dukayn> | so it is |
02:21 | < Ceddo> | Dukayn: YOur last frame goes. DO IT. |
02:21 | < Dukayn> | Thank fuck |
02:21 | < Dukayn> | He had a 7 on 'gale Alpha |
02:21 | < Ceddo> | Nice, eh? :D |
02:21 | < Ceddo> | I will totally write that into my next post. |
02:21 | < Dukayn> | Yup |
02:22 | < Dukayn> | OH SHIT WHERE DID THAT MECH GO?! |
02:22 | < Ceddo> | LOL |
02:22 | < Dukayn> | THERE'S JUST A PILE OF SCRAP METAL AND BLOOD |
02:22 | < Ceddo> | BIG EXPLOSION. |
02:22 | < Dukayn> | well it's dual gatlings |
02:22 | < Ceddo> | I THINK I AM BLIND, EL TEE. |
02:22 | < Dukayn> | so, munched beyond recognition |
02:22 | < Ceddo> | Nah, I meant how SH-B saved 'Gale A. |
02:22 | < Dukayn> | must have hit the power core |
02:22 | < Dukayn> | Ah |
02:23 | < Ceddo> | Totes. Chewed right through armor and crunched the core. |
02:23 | < Dukayn> | Hmm, here's a thought. |
02:23 | < Ceddo> | "Reactor going critical. Emergency shutdown overridden." |
02:23 | < Dukayn> | Pilot kills |
02:23 | < MittenNinja> | ceddo you should e-,ail me you r address so i can send you stuff |
02:23 | < Ceddo> | Yah? |
02:23 | < Ceddo> | Greg: PM me. I need yours, too! :) |
02:23 | < Ceddo> | Wait. |
02:23 | < Ceddo> | I PM you. |
02:23 | < Ceddo> | You reply with yours. |
02:24 | < Dukayn> | As in, yeah OK I one-shot his frame. But did I blow it to oblivion or did I just take out the pilot with a well placed shot, and now the frame is completely useless but pretty much intact? |
02:25 | < Ceddo> | Killing the pilot would be cool. |
02:25 | < Ceddo> | I mean, such a skilled shot. |
02:25 | < Ceddo> | OH WAIT. |
02:25 | < Ceddo> | DUAL GATLINGS. |
02:25 | < Ceddo> | Explosion it is. :P |
02:25 | < Dukayn> | haha yeah for this one |
02:25 | < Dukayn> | but I'm wondering if you could houserule it in |
02:26 | < Ceddo> | But with a sniper rifle, yeah. |
02:26 | < Dukayn> | maybe roll d10, on a 10 you pilot kill |
02:26 | < MittenNinja> | i just PMed you |
02:26 | < Ceddo> | Nah, too unlikely. |
02:26 | < Ceddo> | Dukey, what would the houserule do? |
02:26 | < Ceddo> | 'Frame becomes cover? :D |
02:26 | < Dukayn> | SALVAGE |
02:26 | < Dukayn> | but yes, cover |
02:26 | < Dukayn> | possibly |
02:26 | < Dukayn> | why the fuck not? |
02:26 | < afny> | well a dead frame is cover anyway, I think |
02:26 | < afny> | isn't it? |
02:27 | < Dukayn> | I can't see how something that was one-shot can act as cover |
02:27 | < Ceddo> | No, it's pieces of lego scattered on the battle field. |
02:27 | < Dukayn> | yeah |
02:27 | < Dukayn> | it's flattened |
02:27 | < Dukayn> | gotta be 3 bricks high for cover :) |
02:27 | < afny> | well it depends on the size/construction of the frame and how the owner chooses to "destroy" it |
02:27 | < Ceddo> | Honestly, if anyone flattens my Ijads later, I will flatten him. |
02:27 | < afny> | a chub without a head standing silent and with no guns |
02:27 | < afny> | is still cover. |
02:28 | < Ceddo> | Dude, you know what we need? |
02:28 | < Ceddo> | Playdough shapes in the form of 'frames. |
02:28 | < Dukayn> | A chub without a head and no guns hasn't lost Whites |
02:28 | < Dukayn> | not enough damage |
02:28 | < Ceddo> | Frame busted? HULK SMASH. |
02:28 | < afny> | not true |
02:28 | < Dukayn> | LOL |
02:28 | < Ceddo> | Dukey, a Chub has a pretty important system in the head. |
02:28 | < Dukayn> | I guess it depends how you represent the other systems |
02:28 | < Ceddo> | Protip: It's the cockpit. |
02:28 | < Dukayn> | LOL |
02:28 | < Dukayn> | shutup |
02:29 | < Ceddo> | :D |
02:29 | < Ceddo> | Jus tsaying! |
02:29 | < afny> | actually the chest is the cockpit |
02:29 | < Ceddo> | Actually, you are wrong. |
02:29 | < afny> | or somewhere between the chest in the head |
02:29 | < Soren> | back, snappin pics |
02:29 | < Ceddo> | Joshua posted pictures. |
02:29 | < afny> | of someone's head looking out |
02:29 | < Ceddo> | *throws up hands* |
02:29 | < afny> | pretty sure a chub cockpit is almost exactly like a scopedog cockpit |
02:30 | < afny> | so most of the body is in the chest, but the human's head can look out of the chub head |
02:30 | < afny> | at least that's what I assumed from the illustrations in the pdf |
02:30 | < Dukayn> | I see a Chub head as a sensor suite |
02:30 | | KarolineDianne [NSwebIRC@Nightstar-35371e3c.hstntx.sbcglobal.net] has joined #mf0 |
02:30 | < Ceddo> | I just want this addiction to stop. |
02:30 | < afny> | Ask Soren man, he's right here |
02:30 | < afny> | but a 7p person would not fit in just a Chub head. |
02:30 | < Ceddo> | IT'S CRAMPED. |
02:30 | < afny> | that picture you're talking about from Josh is like |
02:30 | < KarolineDianne> | wat |
02:30 | < Ceddo> | Think 10 people in a smart car. |
02:30 | < Dukayn> | LOL it's 2p high! :P |
02:31 | < afny> | her looking out of the head because the head is CONNECTED to the body |
02:31 | < Ceddo> | 10 people in a smart car, alright? |
02:31 | < afny> | not because she sits in there. |
02:31 | < KarolineDianne> | 7p sits in chub's chest. Head is the top hatch and visor |
02:31 | < KarolineDianne> | Right? |
02:31 | < afny> | yeah I mean, that's what I thought |
02:31 | < KarolineDianne> | Chubs are chubby because the torso is the cockpit |
02:31 | < Dukayn> | That's what my take is. |
02:31 | < Dukayn> | I mean a human takes up the whole head of a Hi-Leg |
02:31 | < Dukayn> | like a ball turret. |
02:31 | < KarolineDianne> | And therefore needs more armor and space for the controls |
02:31 | < afny> | like a High leg, the 2x2 slope and surrounded construction is- |
02:31 | < afny> | yeah Dukayn beat me to it |
02:32 | < Dukayn> | NINJA'D |
02:32 | < afny> | and you even spelled the frame's name right |
02:32 | < afny> | this is why I'm always yelling at you about your cockpits Ced |
02:32 | < afny> | and now I see |
02:32 | < afny> | that you think a 7p person can fit in a 2p space |
02:33 | < MittenNinja> | KD! |
02:33 | < KarolineDianne> | MN! |

02:33 | < Dukayn> | http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/PDFChub.png |
02:33 | < KarolineDianne> | Lots of stuff. Mostly just work and hanging out. A bit of a revelation in my personal life happened yesterday, that's about it. |
02:34 | < MittenNinja> | yeh? anything fun? |

02:35 | < Dukayn> | Did Ced just ragequit? |
02:35 | < afny> | Maybe I was too mean. |
02:35 | < KarolineDianne> | Work is stressful, revelation was depressing, other than that is mostly boredom. |
02:35 | < afny> | His whole life IS a lie, though |

02:37 | < Ceddo> | Yeah, right. |
02:37 | < Dukayn> | Hey I didn't say it was LIKELY |
02:37 | < Ceddo> | I am pretty sure my fragile character is a pretty commonly known thing around here. |
02:37 | < Ceddo> | I am sensitive. |

02:38 | < Soren> | READING LOGS WHILE EDITING |
02:38 | | MittenNinja is now known as Mitten|Dinner |
02:38 | < Ceddo> | Like a drop of morning dew on a lithe flower. |
02:38 | < Ceddo> | That's me. |
02:38 | < KarolineDianne> | Ceddo, that's me. |
02:38 | < Soren> | Assume that any design or functional difference between a Chub and a Scopedog came about solely because we don't like getting sued. |
02:39 | < KarolineDianne> | I'm the lithe flower. |
02:39 | < Ceddo> | KD: The point is not to taunt you. |
02:39 | < KarolineDianne> | You're a stone Archtree. |
02:39 | < Ceddo> | The point is to taunt Dukey. |
02:39 | < Dukayn> | oh wow they are similar |
02:39 | < Dukayn> | How are you taunting me? |
02:39 | < Ceddo> | Who insinuated my emotional demise over something like afny raining on my 1x1 trans-black cheese wedge parade. |
02:39 | < Dukayn> | oh that |
02:40 | < Ceddo> | Which is completely outrageous. |
02:40 | < Dukayn> | I wasn't serious. |
02:40 | < Ceddo> | AND HURT MY FEELINGS. |
02:40 | < Dukayn> | You should know better. |
02:40 | < Ceddo> | Oh, SHOULD I? |
02:40 | < afny> | Hey, just in case people don't know what a scopedog is: http://www.collectiondx.com/gallery2/gallery/d/9656-8/Scopedog1.jpg |
02:40 | < Ceddo> | Why don't you control my ENTIRE life? |
02:40 | < Ceddo> | Gee! |
02:40 | < afny> | and cockpit open: http://www.collectiondx.com/gallery2/gallery/d/9659-8/Scopedog12.jpg |
02:40 | < Ceddo> | Control freak! |
02:40 | < Ceddo> | God, that's one ugly fucker. |
02:41 | < Ceddo> | But I see the resemblence. |
02:41 | < Ceddo> | Soren, I got lego-blueballs, how is that white strider coming along? |
02:41 | < Soren> | it's coming. |
02:41 | < KarolineDianne> | I looked at some VOTOMS stuff and immediately saw the resemblance. I was like... WOW THAT LOOKS LIKE A CHUB |
02:42 | < KarolineDianne> | I C WAT U DID THAR |
02:42 | < Dukayn> | Soon I imagine Ced will be too |
02:42 | < Ceddo> | It's the only reason I am still awake. |
02:42 | < Ceddo> | I want it to look stunningly good. So I have a justification to start company #6. |
02:42 | < Ceddo> | And then cry bitte tears. |
02:42 | < Ceddo> | *bitter |
02:42 | < Ceddo> | Because I have a problem. |
02:43 | < KarolineDianne> | I have problems too |
02:43 | < Ceddo> | On the other hand ... six people free-for-all! |
02:43 | < Ceddo> | Yes, KD. But they are not entirely lego related. |
02:43 | < Ceddo> | My addiction is to ABS. |
02:43 | < Ceddo> | I can't even justify it. |
02:43 | < KarolineDianne> | Abs are nice. |
02:43 | < KarolineDianne> | Especially lady-abs |
02:44 | < Ceddo> | Not Abs. |
02:44 | < KarolineDianne> | Mmmm... |
02:44 | < Ceddo> | ABS. |
02:44 | < KarolineDianne> | Lady abs |
02:44 | < Ceddo> | Plastics. |
02:44 | | * KarolineDianne is too busy oiling her musclebound amazon's abs to pay attention to plastics |
02:44 | < Dukayn> | pics or bullshit :P |
02:44 | < KarolineDianne> | What's that, Isabella? How many dragons did you sleeper-hold today? |
02:45 | < Ceddo> | I know the answer. |
02:45 | < Dukayn> | Oh is that a video game character's abs? |
02:45 | < Dukayn> | I suddenly lost interest ;) |
02:45 | < KarolineDianne> | ;.; |
02:46 | < Ceddo> | To the bar! I heard Foster is alright. |
02:46 | < KarolineDianne> | my amazon seen here --> http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ash3/s720x720/554297_306411326109939_1583914 806_n.jpg |
02:46 | < Dukayn> | Fosters... |
02:46 | | * Dukayn shudders |
02:46 | < Ceddo> | KD: Reminds me of Aerosmith. |
02:46 | < Ceddo> | "Dude looks like a lady!" |
02:47 | < Ceddo> | Only the other way around. |
02:47 | < KarolineDianne> | That's not nice! |
02:47 | < KarolineDianne> | She does not look like a dude at all! |
02:47 | < Ceddo> | Dukayn: Fuck if I know what you drink down there. For all I have gathered, stingrays poison is ingested THROUGH THE HEART. |
02:47 | < Ceddo> | KD: She's a brickwall with blonde hair. |
02:47 | < Dukayn> | THAT WAS ONE GUY |
02:47 | < Dukayn> | And he was a fuckwad |
02:48 | < Ceddo> | My favourite show. |
02:48 | < KarolineDianne> | Hey, guys... Let's not joke about Steve Irwin. It was funny when he was alive... It's just disrespectful now. |
02:48 | < Dukayn> | That's like saying all I know is you guys like to be fat and wear powder blue military dress uniforms. |
02:48 | < Ceddo> | It had the same effect Bob Ross had on me. |
02:48 | < Ceddo> | It was endlessly mindless and entertaining. |
02:48 | < Dukayn> | I'm Australian. We're over it. It's just funny now. |
02:48 | < Ceddo> | "OMG, LOOK AT THIS DEADLY ANIMAL. LET ME TOUCH IT UNTL IT'S PISSED OFF." |
02:48 | < Ceddo> | At first I thought it was a joke. |
02:48 | < KarolineDianne> | :I |
02:49 | < Dukayn> | The irony being that it was the only animal he wasn't prodding to piss it off. |
02:49 | < Ceddo> | He deserved it. |
02:49 | < Ceddo> | He fucking did. |
02:50 | < KarolineDianne> | sigh |
02:50 | < Ceddo> | What is it, KD? |
02:50 | < KarolineDianne> | So mean. |
02:50 | < KarolineDianne> | Anyway |
02:50 | < Ceddo> | That man discredited an entire continent. |
02:50 | < Dukayn> | Ok let's leave off Steve, not for Steve but for KD. Cos I like KD. |
02:50 | < Dukayn> | For the record I didn't like Steve. |
02:51 | < Ceddo> | That was JUST done getting rid of the rep of being the Brits dumpster. |
02:51 | < KarolineDianne> | I just don't like disrespecting people. |
02:51 | < Ceddo> | In general? |
02:51 | < Dukayn> | Don't come to Australia |
02:51 | < Ceddo> | Don't come to Germany. |
02:51 | < Dukayn> | Cos, wow. You'd have a hard time :P |
02:52 | < KarolineDianne> | Why? |
02:52 | < Dukayn> | Well for a start if you don't disrespect at least a dozen people a week they deport you back to England |
02:52 | < Dukayn> | AND NO-ONE WANTS THAT |
02:53 | < Dukayn> | And you have to drink a beer to get past airport security. |
02:53 | < KarolineDianne> | I'm the kind of girl who answers with 'yes sir, yes ma'am' to pretty much everyone, even my friends. I'm very polite, courteous, and such... I think I even sort of bow to people when I apologize or thank them, rather reflexively. |
02:53 | < Soren> | https://www.dropbox.com/s/o7ejf1j13lescg3/I-ST-04F%20Super%20Strider%20Heavy%20A rms.JPG OKAY. FINALLY, I HAVE A FUCKING LINK. |
02:54 | < KarolineDianne> | I was polite before, but after getting a job that's rather big in customer service, it's exploded and really affected my mannerisms as a whole. |
02:55 | < KarolineDianne> | And... THAT is a BEEFY Ijad frame. Wow. I thought that thing you showed before was a hover-tank or a flyer or something, not the head of a scrambler variant. |
02:55 | < Dukayn> | OH MAN |
02:55 | < Ceddo> | I will TOTALLY build those. |
02:55 | < Ceddo> | THat's EXACTLY what I am talking about. :D |
02:55 | < Dukayn> | That is SEX |
02:56 | < afny> | is it 2rA+1d8 2Y? |
02:56 | < Soren> | 2Rd+1d8 1Y 1B |
02:56 | < KarolineDianne> | Meh. Sex isn't a synonym for Awesome anymore. :P |
02:56 | < Ceddo> | Deffo Rd. |
02:56 | < Soren> | slow and smacky. |
02:56 | < Ceddo> | KD: For you. |
02:56 | < Ceddo> | The rest of us is aroused. |
02:56 | < Dukayn> | LOL |
02:56 | < Ceddo> | Mhmm, dat 'frame. |
02:56 | < KarolineDianne> | You guys and your boners |
02:57 | < Soren> | yeah, twin liquid-cooled 60mm railguns. |
02:57 | < Ceddo> | Calibre piss-fest! |
02:57 | < Dukayn> | Those barrels say 'gatling' more than 'railgun' to me |
02:57 | < Ceddo> | Nah. |
02:57 | < KarolineDianne> | TV is free now. I'm gonna go play more Dragon's Dogma. |
02:57 | < KarolineDianne> | See you guys |
02:57 | < Ceddo> | But I will do the sensible thing. |
02:57 | < afny> | I'm glad you never looked at any of my calibers, Ced |
02:57 | < Dukayn> | Have fun |
02:57 | < afny> | you tore that rocket apart. |

02:57 | < Ceddo> | afny: What? D: |
02:57 | < Ceddo> | I explained my reasoning. |
02:58 | < Dukayn> | Heh, I've never declared a calibre |
02:58 | < Dukayn> | No reason |
02:58 | < Dukayn> | Just say it's a cannon, done |
02:58 | < Ceddo> | He wanted to run around with smoothbore cannons on a 2 ton 'frame, firing ~600rpm. |
02:58 | < afny> | A good approach. |
02:58 | < Ceddo> | That just insane. |
02:58 | < Soren> | I was assisting Ced with his precision-boner. It seemed only polite, I made him wait ;) |
02:58 | < Dukayn> | I might have said 40mm for the flechettes on the Opsrey |
02:59 | < afny> | All the calibers I listed were either based on Patlabor weapons or real world artillery |
02:59 | < Ceddo> | Artillery don't fire 600rpm. |
03:00 | < Ceddo> | And there's hardly any artillery firing on the move. |
03:00 | < Soren> | I just picked a number I thought would be barely sane. I bet it just rocks back every time it rips off a burst |
03:00 | < Soren> | KRAK KRAK KRAK |
03:00 | < Soren> | and the breakage. |
03:00 | < Ceddo> | That's the reason for the 48mm tungsten slugs I use for my rifles currently. Slow firing, hard hitting, shakes the building. |
03:01 | < Ceddo> | Like a Bolter. ^^ |
03:01 | < Dukayn> | MMmmmm, Bolter |
03:01 | < Ceddo> | INORITE. |
03:01 | < Ceddo> | It's an assault rifle mini dual explosion warhead rocket launcher. |
03:01 | < Ceddo> | What's not to love? |
03:01 | < Dukayn> | hehe |
03:01 | < Dukayn> | exactly |
03:01 | < Ceddo> | Anyway. |
03:01 | < Ceddo> | The Strider has been seen. |
03:02 | < Ceddo> | The boner is sated. |
03:02 | < Ceddo> | The bed calls. |
03:02 | < Dukayn> | haha |
03:02 | < Dukayn> | and I'm off to have a shower |
03:02 | < Ceddo> | Tomorrow's goal: COVER. |
03:02 | < Dukayn> | as it is midday |
03:02 | < Ceddo> | I will build so much terrain ... |
03:02 | < Dukayn> | and I feel dirty |
03:02 | < Ceddo> | So do I! |
03:02 | < Dukayn> | Ced |
03:02 | < Ceddo> | For other reasons. |
03:02 | < Ceddo> | Dukey? |
03:02 | < Dukayn> | I would like to see some pics of your stations at some stage |
03:02 | < Ceddo> | Yeah, I'll do that tomorrow, too. When I have terrain. :D |
03:03 | < Dukayn> | Cool. Coo-coo-cool. |
03:03 | < Ceddo> | Also, I thnk I have a great idea for a playmat. |
03:03 | < Ceddo> | This whole lego terrain discussion got me thinking. |
03:03 | < Ceddo> | Why not ust take fabric, cut it in a circle, throw it over a table and BOOM, done. |
03:03 | < Ceddo> | Perfect circle, everytime. |
03:03 | < Soren> | that's entirely workable. |
03:03 | < Dukayn> | Yeah |
03:04 | < Dukayn> | Ok, time to get hot, wet and naked |
03:04 | < Ceddo> | And you can take that in a diverse array of colors. |
03:04 | | Dukayn is now known as Dukayn[Shower] |
03:04 | < Ceddo> | Take it further, have slabs of other fabric pieces. |
03:04 | < Ceddo> | Boom, sand boxes, rivers, grassy areas. |
03:04 | < afny> | I like that idea. It'd also make it easier to not move terrain when you break bits off of it |
03:04 | < Soren> | yeah |
03:04 | < Ceddo> | Streets, trails, etc. |
03:04 | < Ceddo> | It's super easy. |
03:05 | < Ceddo> | Friend of mine does a lot of sewing for his LARPing. |
03:05 | < Ceddo> | I'll contact him and see whether he can cook something up. |
03:05 | < Ceddo> | The best part is portability. |
03:05 | < Ceddo> | Just fold it up and throw it in a backpack. |
03:05 | < Ceddo> | Even fucking better. |
03:05 | < Ceddo> | Wrap your legos in it. ;) |
03:06 | < Ceddo> | Anyway. Bed time. |
03:06 | < afny> | if you use the right fabric there wouldn't be any sewing involved |
03:06 | < afny> | hemming the edges of something circular is really annoying |

04:39 | < Soren> | oh MAN. |
04:39 | < Soren> | this roast. |
04:39 | < Dukayn> | ON NOM NOM? |
04:40 | < Soren> | The only thing that could make it better is if the cat were tranked out instead of hatching tiny plots to steal some. |
04:40 | < Soren> | She's gone completely berserk. |
04:41 | < Dukayn> | lol |
04:41 | < Dukayn> | missus is cooking up a WICKED smelling veggie soup |
04:41 | < Soren> | mmm |
04:41 | < Dukayn> | all I can smell is garlic slowly infusing itself in there. |
04:41 | < Dukayn> | I AM SO HUNGRY |
04:41 | < Soren> | Yeah, I made pumpkin soup a few weeks ago. |
04:41 | < Soren> | so good. |
04:42 | < Dukayn> | Pumpkin soup is great |
04:42 | < Soren> | had sprouts with the beef, really improved it. |
04:42 | < Dukayn> | My only issue when the wife makes it is that it's too thick, more like a mash than a real soup |
04:42 | < Soren> | yeah, I do it with veggie stock first, and a handful of shallots. |
04:43 | < Soren> | couple cups of water later, it's perfect. |
04:43 | < Dukayn> | We roast the pumpkin first too |
04:43 | < Dukayn> | NOM |
04:43 | < Soren> | mmm. |
04:43 | < Soren> | yeah |
04:43 | < Soren> | splash a little table cream in for texture. |
04:43 | < Dukayn> | YOU'VE MADE ME MORE HUNGRY YOU BASTARD |
04:43 | < Soren> | I do that. |
04:43 | < Soren> | It's a risk. |
04:44 | < Dukayn> | hurr |
05:04 | < Dukayn> | Mmmmmm, chicken and veggie soup |
05:05 | < Soren> | mmm |
05:07 | < Soren> | Okay, these dino feet look pretty good as a close-combat weapon. |
05:07 | < Soren> | GIANT SLAPPY PAW ACTION |
05:07 | < Dukayn> | I thought they might |
05:32 | < Dukayn> | Soren you around still? |
05:32 | < Soren> | yeah, more or less |
05:32 | < Soren> | What's up? |
05:33 | < Dukayn> | I put those new legs on a Hawk |
05:33 | < Soren> | oooh. |
05:33 | < Dukayn> | http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/HawkNewLegs.png |
05:34 | < Dukayn> | I was playing with the 2x2 round tile instead of the extra squares you did, but I think I prefer the squares now I've seen this one |
05:35 | < Soren> | mm. I think it can go either way, yeah |
05:35 | < Soren> | Man. That does look nice. |
05:36 | < Dukayn> | It works well |
05:36 | < Soren> | I really like the orange toes |
05:37 | < Soren> | might remove the orange in the arms, just too keep it from fragmenting too much |
05:37 | < Soren> | to* |
05:38 | < Dukayn> | Those were really for an example |
05:38 | < Dukayn> | I'm probably going to hardmount the weapons |
05:39 | < Dukayn> | http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/HawkOldLegs.png << Old legs. I still like 'em. Does it make it a bit taller, and with yours it's already slightly higher than a Chub. |
05:58 | < Soren> | yeah |
05:58 | < Soren> | size isn't really a huge issue, though |
05:58 | < Dukayn> | true |
05:58 | < Dukayn> | and it's only leg length |
05:59 | < Soren> | yeah, which varies. |
06:00 | < Dukayn> | What do you think of the old legs? |
06:08 | < Soren> | I think they're pretty nice, actually. |
06:08 | < Soren> | might need some z-axis splay to really shine. |

06:08 | < randolph> | Hey Dukayn, hey all |
06:09 | < randolph> | Anything fun going on? |

06:11 | < randolph> | Nice! |
06:12 | < randolph> | What do you use for backdrop? |
06:12 | < afny> | Wow, hadn't seen the full pink one. |
06:12 | < afny> | That's so nice. |
06:12 | < randolph> | Just a colored piece of construction paper? |
06:12 | < afny> | Or is it pink and orange? |
06:12 | < afny> | My monitor settings are weird right now |
06:12 | < randolph> | The last one? It's red and orange |
06:13 | < randolph> | Er, second to last one |
06:13 | < Soren> | A) just pink, and B) yeah, red and orange. |
06:13 | < afny> | I just switched to "daylight" settings and now I see it |
06:13 | < Soren> | I'm using a piece of illustration board, which is about three, four bucks. |
06:13 | < afny> | but my eyes hurt |
06:14 | < randolph> | ok cool |
06:14 | < randolph> | I need a good light source |
06:14 | < randolph> | I'm taking pictures on my wife's desk, in front of a piece of 8.5 x 11 :P |
06:15 | < afny> | You can make a pretty sweet lightbox with real cheap stuff. |
06:15 | < afny> | Just get like a big clear plastic tote bin, put it on its side |
06:15 | < randolph> | Nog |
06:15 | < afny> | put your backdrop on the bottom of the bin and the side that's on the ground, so it bends but doesn't crease |
06:15 | < Soren> | if you get a cheap fluorescent light and lay it out facing up, it provides pretty decent indirect light. That's what I used to use - just a big old shop light mount. |
06:15 | < randolph> | Any recommendations on type of bulb for natural-looking light? |
06:15 | < afny> | you can also point it directly at your lightbox if you obscure the sides with a thin sheet, interfacing, or tracing paper |
06:16 | < randolph> | what's "interfacing?" |
06:16 | < afny> | uh it's like white stuff you sometimes sew in between layers of fabric for clothes |
06:16 | < randolph> | Ah |
06:17 | < randolph> | I technically know how to sew, but I think the last time I did was in scouts :p |
06:17 | < afny> | well you don't need to know how to sew for this, you just drape it over |
06:17 | < randolph> | nod |
06:17 | < afny> | but tracing paper or any white semi-transparent thin thing will work |
06:17 | < randolph> | Just explaining my total lack of knowledge in the area |
06:17 | < randolph> | nog |
06:18 | < randolph> | I really like the Slammer's headcrest |
06:18 | < Soren> | ty |
06:19 | < Dukayn> | I have a lightbox, which is an old nappy box, holes cut in top and sides with standard printer paper taped over |
06:19 | < randolph> | What do you use as a light source? |
06:19 | < Dukayn> | Desk lamp |
06:19 | < Dukayn> | Or the sun |
06:19 | < randolph> | no flammability issue? |
06:19 | < Dukayn> | Not so far |
06:19 | < randolph> | (with the lamp) |
06:19 | < afny> | I just use desklamps too...I would use three, but I broke a bulb in one. |
06:20 | < Dukayn> | If you're worried, don't stick it too close :P |
06:20 | < randolph> | Heh. |
06:20 | < afny> | The thing about using a clear tote instead of a cardboard box is it lets you diffuse the lighting a lot more, so you don't get glare or sharp cast shadows |
06:20 | < randolph> | I've just never worked with non-storebought lightboxes |
06:20 | < randolph> | We have a couple at work... I think I'd get weird looks <_< |
06:20 | < Dukayn> | That's why you put the paper over the holes, afny |
06:20 | < Dukayn> | it diffuses the light |
06:21 | < afny> | Oh, I missed the HOLES part. |
06:21 | < afny> | Reading comprehension ho. |
06:21 | < Dukayn> | ah |
06:21 | < randolph> | Oh, right, since you're here Dukayn, I still can't think of a suitable LEGO construct to riff off your handle :P |
06:21 | < Dukayn> | the English language is tricky, but it's not THAT tricky :P |
06:22 | < afny> | No, but looking at your monitor is, apparently |
06:22 | < randolph> | Like, the only thing I found remotely related was a vampire woman in a novel |
06:22 | < Dukayn> | hahahaha |
06:22 | < Dukayn> | Well, the name is from a sci-fi book. |
06:22 | < randolph> | Which book? |
06:22 | < Dukayn> | it's called "Palace |
06:23 | < Dukayn> | it's by Katherine Kerr and Mark Kreighbaum, and it's my fave sci-fi book. |
06:23 | < Dukayn> | the character is head of security and a really awesome, badass dude. Until you find out he's a racist / rapist. But until then he's cool. |
06:23 | < randolph> | Well, he's still an awesome, badass dude, he's just also despicable~ |
06:24 | < Dukayn> | JUST LIKE ME REALLY |
06:24 | < randolph> | Buuut, I think I'll pass on bricking that. |
06:24 | < Dukayn> | :P |
06:24 | < Dukayn> | hahaha |
06:24 | < Dukayn> | I've seen Dukayn mentioned in the Koran, also. |
06:24 | < Dukayn> | And Community did an episode where they play D&D, and Fat Neil has a character called Dukayn. |
06:24 | < randolph> | "Dukayn ibn Sa'id al-Muzani?" |
06:24 | < afny> | Yeah, that's what his name makes me think of |
06:25 | < afny> | THE SWORD OF DUKAYN. |
06:25 | < Dukayn> | Probably, randolph |
06:25 | < randolph> | It was halfway down the google page after a bunch of welders |
06:26 | < randolph> | I guess I could make some sort of... Arabian-themed... welding... sword... |
06:26 | < randolph> | vampiric |
06:27 | < randolph> | Anyone here somewhat OCD and feel like proofing Chapter 2 of Exit Strategy before I post it? |
06:30 | < Dukayn> | arabian themed vampiric welding sword, lol |
06:30 | < Dukayn> | You know, Community has robbed me of my identity |
06:31 | < Dukayn> | I've been using Dukayn since 1996 |
06:31 | < afny> | I actually think the spelling is different |
06:31 | < afny> | but I'm not sure. |
06:31 | < Dukayn> | And now wherever I go with the handle people are like "THE SWORD OF DUKAYN! I LOVE COMMUNITY! ARE YOU FAT NEIL?" |
06:31 | < Dukayn> | yeah but it's phonetic |
06:31 | < Dukayn> | And people on the internet are generally stupid. |
06:31 | < afny> | Yeah I mean your internet life is over, I was just trying to make you feel better. |
06:32 | < Dukayn> | haha |
06:32 | < Dukayn> | It probably is but you never see it in print |
06:32 | < randolph> | If it helps, I haven't watched an actual tv show since college. |
06:32 | < Dukayn> | so people see the name, pronounce it in their head and go ZOMG FAT NEIL |
06:32 | < randolph> | (I'm not counting DVDs) |
06:32 | < afny> | If it helps, I think Community is an excellent show. |
06:32 | < afny> | I mean at least you're not tied to a Family Guy reference or something. |
06:33 | < Dukayn> | THANK GOD |
06:33 | < randolph> | Heh. |
06:33 | < randolph> | Hey, some of the early stuff was great |
06:33 | < Dukayn> | I love Community |
06:33 | < Dukayn> | Did you hear Dan Harmon got fired? |
06:33 | < afny> | Wait WHAT |
06:33 | < Dukayn> | Yep |
06:33 | < afny> | When? |
06:33 | < randolph> | A talking dog smacking his owner over the head with a rolled up newspaper saying "No. NO." is still pretty great. |
06:33 | < afny> | Why? |
06:33 | < afny> | FFuuu. |
06:34 | < Dukayn> | Hang a sec |
06:34 | < Dukayn> | He blogged about it |
06:34 | < afny> | God damnit. |
06:34 | < afny> | SIX SEASONS AND A MOVIE. |
06:35 | < Dukayn> | http://danharmon.tumblr.com/post/23339272200/hey-did-i-miss-anything |
06:35 | < randolph> | It's been six seasons? |
06:35 | < Dukayn> | no |
06:35 | < Dukayn> | Just finished 3 |
06:35 | < Dukayn> | Six Seasons and a Movie is like the show's motto |
06:36 | < Dukayn> | It's their (unrealistic) dream that is what they will get |
06:36 | < afny> | In series it was in reference to "The Cape" |
06:36 | < Dukayn> | But the show's ratings have never been great, for some unknown reason. |
06:36 | < afny> | Well not a reference, it was just said about "The Cape". |
06:36 | < afny> | Honestly I'm surprised it got this far without being cancelled. |
06:36 | < afny> | |
06:37 | < Dukayn> | Tru |
06:37 | < Dukayn> | and now NBC has moved it to Friday night |
06:37 | < afny> | But really, Harmon leaving might be worse than death for it. Who knows what it will be like without him. |
06:37 | < Dukayn> | And fired the creator |
06:37 | < afny> | The characters will all become really one dimensional |
06:38 | < randolph> | Why would they do that? |
06:38 | < afny> | Annie and Jeff will just descend into a sitcom will they, won't they scenario |
06:38 | < randolph> | I mean, sure, get rid of him. |
06:38 | < afny> | No one will know ho to write dialogue for Abed, so he will just be Evil Abed all the time. |
06:38 | < randolph> | But it sounds like they didn't even try to talk |
06:39 | < randolph> | Every piece of Sony news I've read in the past year has been "wtf Sony" |
06:47 | < afny> | So there's a very obvious answer to this question that I'm just not seeing, but how do you make the rumble monkey chest piece? |
06:48 | < afny> | I mean, I've got a 1x2 w/bar with a 1x2 plate on the bottom, and then one shoved in the vertical side of the bar... |
06:48 | < afny> | but I can't figure how how to connect it to the front of the frame without using another plate, and that makes it stick out too far. |
06:48 | < Dukayn> | I've never really looked at a Rumble Monkey |
06:48 | < Soren> | it's a pair of jumper plates underneath, and you remove the 2x2 |
06:49 | < afny> | ah |
06:49 | < afny> | see |
06:50 | < afny> | simple |
06:50 | < afny> | thanks. |
06:50 | < Soren> | yw |
06:51 | < Soren> | it's easy to get tunnel vision and think "Okay. This is easy. Why am I not seeing it?" |
06:51 | < Dukayn> | Absolutely |
06:54 | < Soren> | But in general I try not to go bonkers with the crazy obscure shit on MFZ stuff, even the stupid-expensive-because-I-don't-want-to-see-thousands-of-these designs like the Rumble Monkey |
06:55 | < afny> | I just happened to find two brown shoulder helmets, and one of my chubs w/diver mask uses a brown helmet already |
06:55 | < afny> | so I thought I'd give it an upgrade |
06:55 | < Soren> | yeah |
06:55 | < afny> | what's expensive about the rumble monkey? |
06:55 | < afny> | just the helmet parts? |
06:56 | < Soren> | the helmets, yeah, and the 'official' dark greay is also not super cheap. |
06:56 | < Soren> | greay* |
06:56 | < Soren> | ... |
06:56 | < afny> | ah yeah I never consider the official colors |
06:56 | < afny> | especially if they're greay. |
06:56 | | * Soren beats his fingers with a phone until they obey |
06:56 | < Soren> | GRAY. |
06:56 | < Soren> | FUCK. |
06:57 | < Soren> | the express reason iI did that was so that it would have a certain mystique and rarity and people would incorporate bits and pieces of them, like they'd been salvaged. |
06:57 | < Soren> | actually fielding a whole company of them isn't cheap or easy. |
07:11 | < Dukayn> | I cannot find a Rumble Monkey anywhere to see what they look like :P |
07:11 | < Dukayn> | I thought someone had posted one to the Flickr group but no |
07:11 | < Soren> | hang on a sec |
07:12 | < Soren> | https://secure.flickr.com/photos/bricklovinfreakboy/6316097890/ |
07:13 | < Dukayn> | Ah yes |
07:13 | < Dukayn> | I have seen them |
07:13 | < Dukayn> | Probably trawling through YOUR flickr :P |
07:13 | < afny> | mostly when you see them, it's just like Soren said |
07:13 | < afny> | somewhere between an 06 and an 09 |
07:13 | < afny> | cobbled together |
07:14 | < afny> | All the ones I've seen at the Hangar, anyway |
07:14 | < afny> | and the ones I saw on Malcom Craig's flikr |
07:17 | < afny> | +l |
07:19 | < afny> | is there a finalized list for the frames that area actually in the book? |
07:19 | < afny> | is it just two per faction? |
07:20 | < Soren> | that seems like a good guideline. |
07:21 | < Soren> | I was talking to Ced about posting up a list of semi-official stuff that sort of segued into 'hey, maybe I should just make a little know-your-enemy booklet'. |
07:21 | < Soren> | I'll throw that one out to J and see what happens. |
07:51 | < randolph> | Anyone unable to get to the hangar? |
07:52 | < Soren> | Man. Chrons must just be *throttling* his cock right now. |
07:52 | < Soren> | like a mangy weasel covered in pocket lint |
07:54 | < randolph> | wut |
07:55 | < Dukayn> | lol |
07:55 | < Dukayn> | Permabanned. About time too. |
07:55 | < randolph> | Did I miss a new development since Ced banned him? |
07:55 | < Dukayn> | Maybe it was a comment on the Hangar being unreachable |
07:55 | < randolph> | Heh. |
07:55 | < Dukayn> | Same day as Bricklink went down. |
07:55 | < Dukayn> | CHRONS IS HACKING |
07:55 | < randolph> | Would you call that a... :shades: chronjob? |
07:56 | < Soren> | he's got a script, and he's just gonna jam his cock into it until he's done. |
07:56 | < Soren> | You're gonna fit in just fine around here |
07:56 | < randolph> | hehe |
07:56 | < Dukayn> | I reckon he smokes *sunglasses* da Chronic |
07:56 | < Dukayn> | YYYYEEEEEAAAAHHHHH |
07:57 | < randolph> | In one of my regular IRC channels we programmed the bot to say YEEEAAAAAAH when someone says :shades: |
07:57 | < Dukayn> | Noah! Make it so! |
07:57 | < Soren> | oh, there we go. It's there |
07:57 | < Dukayn> | phew |
07:57 | < randolph> | woo |
07:58 | < randolph> | Oop, can't reach it again |
07:59 | < Dukayn> | yeah |
07:59 | < Dukayn> | it's going up and down like Lewinski |
08:00 | < Dukayn> | Soren: leg splay on the Hawk with the old legs. Does make a difference. |
08:00 | < Dukayn> | http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/HawkLegSplay.png |
08:01 | < Soren> | Yeah, just being able to point the toes out a little adds so much to the stability and dynamic appearance of a design. |
08:01 | < Dukayn> | Yeah |
08:01 | < Dukayn> | That angle's not the best |
08:01 | < Soren> | no, but it's still pretty good. |
08:01 | < randolph> | I apparently have a hard time designing mechs that look like classic mechs |
08:01 | < afny> | really depends what you mean by "classic" |
08:01 | < Dukayn> | http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/HawkLegSplay2.png |
08:02 | < afny> | there are a lot of different kind of mechs, and a lot of different kind of mech fans. |
08:02 | < Dukayn> | better angle |
08:02 | < Soren> | those ankles are pretty clever. |
08:02 | < Soren> | juuuuust enough mobility for the pretty. |
08:02 | < Dukayn> | The things you come up with when you have only 2 taps :P |
08:03 | < Soren> | well, one of the best tricks to good mobility is not to put all your faith in one joint. |
08:03 | < Dukayn> | I mean you can do that with taps too |
08:03 | < randolph> | afny: Humanoid or walker, or even spidery |
08:03 | < Soren> | a little mobility in two or three joints gives you prettier poses than a ton of mobility in one joint. |
08:03 | < randolph> | ^ ++ |
08:04 | < Dukayn> | yeah |
08:04 | < randolph> | Plus balance |
08:04 | < randolph> | Because you have more options for weight distribution |
08:04 | < Soren> | yeah. |
08:05 | < Soren> | I actually have an old example with instructions: the GM in my photostream has a shoulder joint that's actually two joints, each of which provides about half of what a shoulder joint needs. |
08:05 | < randolph> | hangar back up again... |
08:05 | < Dukayn> | GET IT WHILE IT'S HOT |
08:05 | < Soren> | because the center of that joint is the actual shoulder assembly, it shifts weight really smoothly and nicely, as opposed to always swinging dramatically around and tumbling. |
08:05 | < randolph> | I guess I'll just post Part 2 now |
08:06 | < randolph> | What's the best way to do a horizontal rule in phpBB? |
08:06 | < randolph> | like a mini-chapter division |
08:06 | < Dukayn> | lots of underscore? |
08:06 | < randolph> | heh |
08:06 | < Dukayn> | or lots of minus :P |
08:06 | < randolph> | I know, high ascii art! |
08:06 | < randolph> | :P |
08:06 | < Dukayn> | OOER |
08:06 | < Dukayn> | ( . Y . ) |
08:07 | < randolph> | I'll keep you abreast of developments |
08:07 | < Soren> | WHY DOES THAT BUTT HAVE NIPPLES |
08:07 | < randolph> | They're beauty marks |
08:07 | < Dukayn> | COS BOOBIES |
08:07 | < randolph> | Maybe a tattoo |
08:07 | < Dukayn> | A tattoo of boobies on a butt |
08:08 | < randolph> | gluteus mammarus |
08:12 | < Soren> | okay, I'm going to bail out like a dickweed and go read for a while. |
08:12 | | Soren is now known as Soren|away |
08:12 | < Dukayn> | whatcha readin? |
08:12 | < Soren|away> | later! |
08:12 | < Dukayn> | cya mate |
08:12 | < Soren|away> | oh, going over some old favorites that I converted to my Kindle for the flight across the pacific. |
08:12 | < Soren|away> | Let's see if they're all munged! |
08:13 | < Dukayn> | Ah |
08:14 | < Dukayn> | Have fun |

08:25 | < Ced|Bed> | Mornin'. |
08:25 | | Ced|Bed is now known as Ceddo |
08:25 | < CalaveraJoe> | Yanno, it's immensely appropriate that brick link orders come in tiny little drug baggies |
08:26 | < Ceddo> | Good sir. |
08:26 | < Ceddo> | Dear, good sir. |
08:27 | < Ceddo> | As someone who needs to set his BrickLink overview to "40 entries per page" to have at least some sort of overview ... |
08:27 | < Ceddo> | ... I have to say ... |
08:27 | < Dukayn> | I set mine to 500 |
08:27 | < Ceddo> | ... I dedicated one drawer to those little baggies and I feel odd for it. |
08:27 | < Ceddo> | Guilty, you might say. |
08:28 | < Dukayn> | I have frictionless scroll and hate clicking "next" |
08:28 | < Ceddo> | Dukayn: To see all of your orders, eh? |
08:28 | < CalaveraJoe> | lol |
08:28 | < Dukayn> | All 1 of them? Yes. |
08:28 | < Ceddo> | :D |
08:28 | < Dukayn> | No, when I search for parts I always set to 500 per page |
08:28 | < Dukayn> | less clicking. |
08:28 | < Dukayn> | I can just super-scroll down till I see the colour I want. |
08:28 | < Dukayn> | Better than going through 4 pages of white |
08:29 | < CalaveraJoe> | I use the catalog to search for parts |
08:29 | < CalaveraJoe> | That way you get the nice summary screen and can just pick the color you want |
08:29 | < Dukayn> | hmm |
08:29 | < Dukayn> | hadn't thought of that |
08:29 | < Dukayn> | I'm a bricklink newbie |
08:29 | < Ceddo> | Oh, DUKEY. |
08:29 | < Ceddo> | You are SUCH a nasty young man. |
08:29 | < Dukayn> | CEDDYBEAR |
08:29 | < CalaveraJoe> | Also, for things I want in multiple colors, it means I can open tabs for each color |
08:29 | < Ceddo> | I LOVE how you worded that. |
08:29 | < Dukayn> | Pardon? |
08:30 | < Dukayn> | You confuse me, sir. Explain yourself! |
08:31 | < Ceddo> | "So yeah ... this guy's dead, fuck 'im, I snatch that stations, spot that guy over there, I'm done my turn, no one else gets to do jack squat, me again (Aww yeah), moving in, firing at that guy, because fuck 'im ... yeah. Yeah that's it. Your go, Trilly. *brushes off dust from shoulder*" |
08:31 | < Dukayn> | LOL |
08:31 | < Dukayn> | I so didn't word it like that |
08:31 | < Ceddo> | It SO sounds like that. |
08:31 | < Dukayn> | between the lines maybe |
08:31 | < Ceddo> | Yes. |
08:31 | < Ceddo> | To me. |
08:32 | < Ceddo> | Because I am an evil person. |
08:32 | < Dukayn> | I was very fucken polite :P |
08:32 | < Ceddo> | But I am thoroughly entertained. |
08:32 | < Ceddo> | Very Canadian of you |
08:32 | < Dukayn> | Is that efficient enough for ya, Fritz? |
08:32 | < Ceddo> | Oh, you haven't seen the end of it. :D |
08:32 | < randolph> | heh |
08:32 | | afny [kevinvankir@Nightstar-42c41d95.res.rr.com] has quit [Client exited] |

08:33 | < Ceddo> | Trilly will loose his marbles if you do. |
08:33 | < Dukayn> | And I'll laugh so hard |
08:33 | < Dukayn> | Poor Trilly |
08:33 | < Ceddo> | CJ: That's a sexy Iggy. |
08:33 | < Dukayn> | He's had one attack actually land and it was no good |
08:33 | < Dukayn> | OOER |
08:33 | < Dukayn> | THAT'S HOT |
08:33 | < Ceddo> | And now his game is almost over. :D |
08:34 | < Ceddo> | I wonder how "ooer" is pronounced. |
08:34 | < Dukayn> | Ooh-err |
08:34 | < CalaveraJoe> | Ceddo: Thanks! Bricked up my Salamander variant |
08:34 | < Ceddo> | Like Uh-Oh? |
08:34 | < Dukayn> | No like Ooh-Err |
08:35 | < Ceddo> | So "Ooh, Shiny" combined with "Err, I dunno..." |
08:35 | < Dukayn> | sound wise yess |
08:35 | < Dukayn> | doesn't mean the same |
08:35 | < Dukayn> | just means "ooh, nice" basically |
08:35 | < Ceddo> | That's a phonetic disaster. |
08:36 | < CalaveraJoe> | I've gotta say, frames are /infinitely/ more satisfying in brick |
08:36 | < Ceddo> | CJ: Infinitely, yeah. I use LDD to plan. |
08:36 | < Ceddo> | But I don't post it anymore. |
08:36 | < CalaveraJoe> | Like... the only reason I'm not bricking like a nut right now is my innate need to go "Lookit what I did!" all over the 'net |
08:36 | < Ceddo> | I AM JUST THE SAME. |
08:36 | < Ceddo> | Such an attention whore. |
08:36 | < Dukayn> | They always look better in brick |
08:37 | < Dukayn> | I just don't have enough so I post my LDD/LDraws |
08:37 | < CalaveraJoe> | The Salamander looks SOO much better in abs |
08:37 | < Dukayn> | Otherwise I'd never bloody post LOL |
08:37 | < Ceddo> | Hey Dukey, when you hit the hay? |
08:37 | < Dukayn> | SPEAKING OF POSTING |
08:37 | < Dukayn> | IS THAT THE MAILMAN? :P |
08:37 | < Ceddo> | :D |
08:37 | < Dukayn> | Me? In about... 8-9 hrs |
08:37 | < Dukayn> | Assuming a 1-2am bedtime |
08:37 | < Ceddo> | Dukey ordered one tap. He is really excited. :D |
08:38 | < Dukayn> | Fuck off :P |
08:38 | < CalaveraJoe> | lol |
08:38 | < Ceddo> | :D :D :D |
08:38 | < CalaveraJoe> | I've still got like 5-6 more orders coming in |
08:38 | < Dukayn> | You know |
08:38 | < Dukayn> | I never realised how alike Germans and Aussies are. |
08:38 | < CalaveraJoe> | What I save on travis bricks alone more than covered all the extra shipping |
08:38 | < Ceddo> | I can imagine the situation. |
08:38 | < Dukayn> | Well, this german |
08:38 | < Ceddo> | "Honey, I ordered something online." |
08:38 | < CalaveraJoe> | Of course, it also means I obsessively stare at the Orders page wishing ill on slow shippers |
08:39 | < Ceddo> | "INITIATE DEATH STARE. HEATING UP DISINTEGRATION GAZE." |
08:39 | < Dukayn> | hahaha |
08:39 | < Dukayn> | nah |
08:39 | < Ceddo> | "It was 6 bucks." |
08:39 | < Dukayn> | She was in bed |
08:39 | < Dukayn> | it was 2.15am |
08:39 | < Dukayn> | and I thought "Fuck It" |
08:39 | < Ceddo> | "AIMING. AIMING. AIMING." |
08:39 | < Ceddo> | Oh, lol! |
08:39 | < Ceddo> | "I tell her now while she is sleepy, HA!" |
08:39 | < Dukayn> | Next day, we were talking about how she spent like $30 on books a couple days ago |
08:40 | < Ceddo> | I think you still have $24 open. |
08:40 | < Dukayn> | And I just casually insert "so the 6 bucks I spent on Bricklink last night isn't really a problem then" |
08:40 | < Ceddo> | But that's just me. |
08:40 | < Ceddo> | Oooh, suave. |
08:40 | < Ceddo> | You are a gentleman and a scholar. :D |
08:40 | < Dukayn> | She just looked at me and smiled that "You clever bastard" smile |
08:40 | < CalaveraJoe> | Sadly, I may well have to put in ANOTHER order for the goddamn Minx |
08:41 | < Ceddo> | CJ: I ordered a company of midnight blue MINXes. |
08:41 | < Ceddo> | And I feel dirty for it. |
08:41 | < CalaveraJoe> | I suspect my primary company will be a mix of minxes, chubs, and iggys |
08:41 | < Dukayn> | QUESTION: Can you insert a technic pin into a headlight brick? |
08:41 | < CalaveraJoe> | The bottom |
08:41 | < Dukayn> | Yeah |
08:41 | < Dukayn> | length-wise |
08:42 | < CalaveraJoe> | Should be able to |
08:42 | < CalaveraJoe> | one moment, Ill check |
08:42 | < Dukayn> | I don't have any (oh the shame) |
08:42 | < Dukayn> | so I can't check myself |
08:43 | < CalaveraJoe> | Wont fit in all the way in the bottom |
08:43 | < Dukayn> | ok ta |
08:43 | < CalaveraJoe> | Only a bit |
08:43 | < Dukayn> | So LDD isn't trolling me this time |
08:43 | < CalaveraJoe> | Will fid MOST of the way in the back |
08:43 | < Ceddo> | Bottom you can't. |
08:43 | < Ceddo> | Back leaves 2mm of the first half out of the brick. |
08:43 | < Dukayn> | kk |
08:44 | < Ceddo> | http://www.bricklink.com/PL/47753pb020.gif?1 |

11:22 | < Ceddo> | AND "OF", TOO. |
12:32 | < Dukayn> | sorry dude |
12:32 | < Dukayn> | was watching Castle with the wife |
12:34 | < Dukayn> | Ceddo: and bricking up this: http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/SparrowhawkAlpha.png |
12:34 | < Ceddo> | Fucking finally. |
12:34 | < Ceddo> | Hear my story. |
12:35 | < Ceddo> | On how I got 60% off my purchase. |
12:35 | < Dukayn> | wait |
12:35 | < Dukayn> | check out my pix first |
12:35 | < Dukayn> | then you can wax lyrical about ripping off Lego merchants :P |
12:35 | < Ceddo> | Dude that's sexy. |
12:35 | < Ceddo> | I like SH's. :D |
12:35 | < Dukayn> | Me too |
12:35 | < Dukayn> | New gun, new jetpack :) |
12:35 | < Ceddo> | I'mma try and build one. |
12:35 | < Ceddo> | I have two trans-black slopes like that. |
12:35 | < Dukayn> | It's... fiddly |
12:35 | < Ceddo> | And no Idea what for. :D |
12:36 | < Dukayn> | Mostly around the hip/leg connections |
12:36 | < Ceddo> | Maybe I refine it abit on the way. |
12:36 | < Dukayn> | but that could be my clips, or the nozzles |
12:36 | < Dukayn> | Maybe |
12:36 | < Dukayn> | :) |
12:36 | < Ceddo> | ANYWAY. |
12:36 | < Ceddo> | LISTEN CLOSELY AND LEARN. |
12:36 | < Dukayn> | I also PM'd you those pics |
12:36 | < Dukayn> | of your LDD files |
12:36 | < Ceddo> | Saw those, thanks man! |
12:36 | < Ceddo> | Shipped out the bubble mailer, too. |
12:37 | < Ceddo> | It was like $4.50, to Australia. :D |
12:37 | < Dukayn> | hahaha |
12:37 | < Ceddo> | So I walk into the store. And we chitchat, as per usual. He's all like: "You again." and I go on about my shifts and how they are always closed when I have early shift, bla bla. |
12:37 | < Dukayn> | that's less than my order from Adelaide |
12:37 | < Ceddo> | Anyway, I cut to the chase and tell him, I want those masonry bricks. |
12:38 | < Ceddo> | And he asks what colour, we talk about houses people build ... I just let him go on about it for a bit. |
12:38 | < Ceddo> | So he shows me the bin, and it reads: 0.22 cents a piece. |
12:38 | < Ceddo> | FIRST DISCOUNT. |
12:38 | < Ceddo> | "Online it's 0.17." - "Really?" - "Yeah." - "Okay, we'll make it 0.17 for you here, too, then." |
12:38 | < Dukayn> | Is that 22 cents, or 0.22 cents? |
12:39 | < Ceddo> | 0.22 Euros, sorry. |
12:39 | < Dukayn> | ah |
12:39 | < Ceddo> | So 22 cents a pop. |
12:39 | < Ceddo> | Anyway. |
12:39 | < Ceddo> | Drop from 22 to 17. |
12:39 | < Ceddo> | So I start prodding the bin, poke around a bit and take a deep, deep sigh. |
12:39 | < Ceddo> | "Say, if I'd drop 50 Euros on those ... how many can you do?" (Current price would give me 294 bricks) |
12:40 | < Ceddo> | SECOND DISCOUNT. |
12:40 | < Ceddo> | "Mhmm, mhmm ... *calculates in his head* ... let's say ... 320." |
12:40 | < Ceddo> | "Okay man, cool! *grabs light grey and medium flesh bin*" |
12:40 | < Ceddo> | I pour them out on the counter, his daughter watches me as I count. |
12:40 | < Ceddo> | "5 ... 10 ... 15 ... 20 ... 25..." |
12:41 | < Ceddo> | I take my sweet ass time, and always grab 5, show her 5, throw them in a plastic bin. |
12:41 | < Ceddo> | NEEDLESS TO SAY, by ~30, she is bored as all fuck. |
12:41 | < Ceddo> | And there's fucking 290 to go. |
12:41 | < Ceddo> | So I pick up 6, and say: 30. |
12:41 | < Ceddo> | Pick up 6, say: 35. |
12:41 | < Ceddo> | Pick up 6, say nothing. |
12:41 | < Ceddo> | Pick up 6, say 40. |
12:42 | < Ceddo> | And so on, all the way up to "205". |
12:42 | < Ceddo> | More like 250, ish. |
12:42 | < Ceddo> | "I'm all light grey, I guess I take some medium flesh." - "Yeah, okay." |
12:42 | < Ceddo> | I go ahead and count again. Around 20, she is married to her cellphone. |
12:42 | < Dukayn> | LOL how old? |
12:42 | < Ceddo> | I do all this right in front if her, mind you. There's no sneaky in the corner action. |
12:43 | < Ceddo> | Like 25, ish? |
12:43 | < Ceddo> | Anyway. |
12:43 | < Ceddo> | This is where it gets hilarious. |
12:43 | < Ceddo> | I am at 20, grab 6, say: "Twenty five ..." |
12:43 | < Ceddo> | Grab 6, say: "Twenty six ..." |
12:43 | < Ceddo> | Grab 6 say: "Thirty ..." |
12:43 | < Ceddo> | She doesn't give a flying fuck. |
12:43 | < Dukayn> | lol |
12:43 | < Ceddo> | I count up to "115", which is more like 150. |
12:44 | < Ceddo> | And BAMM, 400 bricks for 50 Euros. :D |
12:44 | < Ceddo> | I mean, those fuckers are still expensive. |
12:44 | < Ceddo> | But I got from 225 at store price to 400 at Ceddo discount. |
12:44 | < Ceddo> | Pret-ty good haul. |
12:44 | < Dukayn> | LOL |
12:45 | < Ceddo> | I am quite the con artist. |
12:45 | < Dukayn> | that's not a discount, that's pure theft. |
12:45 | < Ceddo> | WHAT. |
12:45 | < Dukayn> | brilliant theft, but still. |
12:45 | < Ceddo> | I BOUGHT THOSE. |
12:45 | < Ceddo> | WITH MONEY. |
12:45 | < Ceddo> | :D |
12:45 | < Ceddo> | I just evened the odds. |
12:45 | < Dukayn> | haha no, you bought 250 odd. You stole 150 odd :P |
12:45 | < Ceddo> | I bought 320! |
12:45 | < Ceddo> | Stole 80! |
12:45 | < Dukayn> | hahahaha ok ok |
12:45 | < Dukayn> | pedant :P |
12:45 | < Ceddo> | And by stole, I mean, I assigned myself a customer discount! |
12:46 | < Dukayn> | the five-finger kind |
12:46 | < Ceddo> | Indeed. |
12:46 | < Ceddo> | Which is my favourite discount. |
12:46 | < Dukayn> | So anyway, I bricked up that Sparrowhawk. |
12:46 | < Dukayn> | it's all fucked up colours though |
12:46 | < Ceddo> | How was it? |
12:46 | < Ceddo> | FUCK YEAH. |
12:46 | < Dukayn> | It's really stable standing |
12:46 | < Ceddo> | I want to build one, too. |
12:46 | < Ceddo> | Right now. |
12:46 | < Ceddo> | Somehow. |
12:46 | < Dukayn> | You want the LDD? |
12:46 | < Ceddo> | Lemem check my parts. |
12:46 | < Ceddo> | Nah, FREEBUILD, man. |
12:46 | < Ceddo> | From memory. |

12:47 | < Ceddo> | CHALLENGE ACCEPTED. |
12:47 | < Dukayn> | hahaha |
12:47 | < Dukayn> | I'm really interested to see how you go actually |
12:47 | < Ceddo> | I'll get the cockpit right and that's gonna be it, lol. |
12:47 | < Dukayn> | LOL |
12:47 | < Ceddo> | Mhmm, I could show you on Skype. |
12:47 | < Dukayn> | well if you're not even going to look at pics |
12:47 | < Ceddo> | Do you have Skype? |
12:48 | < Dukayn> | I do |
12:48 | < Ceddo> | Care for a vid call? :D |
12:48 | < Ceddo> | Watch me BUILD. Like a mofo. |
12:48 | < Dukayn> | Missus watching TV, which is right next to the PC. |
12:48 | < Ceddo> | I already have the two trans slopes, this can't go wrong. |

14:25 | <~Noah> | Sup guys |
14:25 | < Dukayn> | hihi |
14:25 | < Dukayn> | Ceddo's off playing a game of MFZ with his roomie. |
14:26 | <~Noah> | So, it looks like the bricklink chat is dead for the foreseeable future. |
14:26 | < Dukayn> | Hmm? |
14:26 | <~Noah> | The chat button is gone from the site |
14:26 | < Dukayn> | ah |
14:26 | < Dukayn> | I can't make changes to my order either |
14:26 | <~Noah> | Same |
14:26 | < Dukayn> | I change to Paid, hit Submit and it errors out |
14:26 | < Dukayn> | database issues |
14:27 | <~Noah> | Yea, same thing when I try to change from recieved to completed |
14:27 | <~Noah> | But it let me post feedback *shrug* |
14:27 | < Dukayn> | ha |
14:32 | <~Noah> | So I was thinking about setting up a generic fan of lego channel for bricklinkers and others. |
14:32 | < Dukayn> | not a bad idea |
14:34 | <~Noah> | I'll play around with the idea later, gotta go find something to do for four and a half hours now that my exam is over |

14:55 | < Dukayn> | Hey Mittens |
14:55 | < Ceddo> | Oh boy. |
14:55 | < Ceddo> | That was such a great game. |
14:55 | < Dukayn> | Ha, welcome back |
14:55 | < Ceddo> | I had a 'frame survive a 6 spot + 8 SSR. |
14:55 | < Dukayn> | I was just wondering how far through you were |
14:55 | < Ceddo> | And live on for the entirety of the game on two whites. |
14:56 | < Dukayn> | lol |
14:56 | < Ceddo> | He even got to punch someone. :D |
14:56 | < Dukayn> | \o/ |
14:56 | < Ceddo> | Also, Admiral Ackbar declared the 13th Guard as the winner. |
14:56 | < Ceddo> | Time to do the Battle Report. :D |
14:57 | < Dukayn> | lol |
14:57 | < Ceddo> | Dude. |
14:57 | < Ceddo> | Our cover took like a dozen hits |
14:57 | < Ceddo> | There was bricks EVERYWHERE. |
14:57 | < Dukayn> | Oh btw I figured something out with the Sparrowhawk hip |
14:57 | < Ceddo> | Whatcha got? |
14:57 | < Dukayn> | it's perfectly situated for a t-piece + 2 clip join |
14:58 | < Dukayn> | all you gotta do is add another clip, replace the nozzle I have with a T-piece and you're done |
14:58 | < Ceddo> | Sweet. |
14:58 | < Ceddo> | Okay, lemme just write this up and edit the pictures. |
14:58 | < Ceddo> | It's worth it. :D |
14:58 | < Dukayn> | KK |
14:58 | < Dukayn> | I'm trying to fix up that torso connection though |
14:58 | < Dukayn> | get rid of the 2 lamp holders |
14:59 | < MittenNinja> | What's up guys? |
15:00 | < Dukayn> | Not much |
15:00 | < Dukayn> | Ced just finished a game |
15:00 | < Dukayn> | And I've been trying to rejig an older design to be less explodey |
15:01 | < MittenNinja> | Nice. What design? |
15:01 | < Dukayn> | The Sparrowhawk |
15:02 | < Dukayn> | It's got a 2 lamp holder connection behind the cockpit which is flimsy |
15:02 | < Dukayn> | and the taps on the arms don't insert in anything, they're held on by a stud, so they like to fall off rather than rotate. |
15:03 | < MittenNinja> | You have the design up on the forums? |
15:03 | < Dukayn> | I do, but the pics aren't great. |
15:03 | < Dukayn> | They're small and show no real detail |
15:03 | < MittenNinja> | That's alright. |
15:05 | < Dukayn> | I have an LDraw of the Chickenhawk which uses the same base frame |
15:05 | < MittenNinja> | Oh that guy! |
15:05 | < Dukayn> | just legs are slightly different but I'm happy with that |
15:05 | < MittenNinja> | Yeah yeah, I remember that frame |
15:06 | < MittenNinja> | You want me to rework him a bit too? |
15:06 | < Dukayn> | If you want, sure. |
15:07 | < Dukayn> | it's pretty much the "torso" which sits behind the head. |
15:07 | < Dukayn> | you want the LDraw? |
15:07 | < Dukayn> | this is the thread: http://www.mobileframehangar.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=1095 |
15:09 | < MittenNinja> | Sure man |
15:09 | < Dukayn> | These will help too. This is the original "Tomahawk" version, but the core remains the same. |

15:10 | < MittenNinja> | Sweet, thanks man. |
15:10 | < Dukayn> | NP |
15:11 | < Dukayn> | I've already figured out I can remove the lamp holders and attach the bar plate to the cockpit via a 1x2 directly, but I'm stuck on shoulder mounts. |
15:11 | < MittenNinja> | I'm sure I can figure somethig out :) |
15:11 | < Dukayn> | Headlights work, but I want to be able to mount the jump pack. |
15:11 | < Dukayn> | Yeah go nuts |
15:12 | < Dukayn> | Don't worry about legs, those are fine :) |
15:12 | < MittenNinja> | Sounds good |
15:18 | < Ceddo> | God, I want to write FASTER. |
15:18 | < Ceddo> | No one go away. |
15:18 | < Ceddo> | Stay around! |
15:18 | < Ceddo> | I am so proud! :D |
15:18 | < Dukayn> | hehe |
15:18 | < Dukayn> | I'm hanging out for this |
15:19 | < MittenNinja> | What're you writing? |
15:20 | < Dukayn> | After action report for his game |
15:22 | < MittenNinja> | Ah |
15:23 | < Ceddo> | Already at turn 3! :D |
15:24 | < Dukayn> | heh |
15:24 | < Dukayn> | hahahahaha oh man, you can attach a Chub torso behind the 'Hawk cockpit |
15:25 | < Ceddo> | SWEET. :D |
15:25 | < Ceddo> | MORPHIN! |
15:25 | < Dukayn> | that's a heck of a Chub variant :P |
15:34 | < Ceddo> | The fuck did I do there. |
15:34 | < Ceddo> | *scratches head* |
15:35 | < Dukayn> | lol |
15:38 | < MittenNinja> | Duke you could flip the taps around and attach them to the torso via clips and the attach the arms with a lamp holder like I did on my grand Naga. |
15:39 | < MittenNinja> | That's the quick fix option I see |
15:39 | < MittenNinja> | I'll still mess around with it when I get home thogh |
15:39 | < Dukayn> | Ah i see |
15:39 | < Dukayn> | that could work yeah |
15:39 | < Dukayn> | Thanks |
15:42 | < Ceddo> | Almost done! |
15:42 | < Dukayn> | \o/ |
15:48 | < Ceddo> | I think I got it. |
15:49 | < Dukayn> | cool |
15:50 | < Ceddo> | http://www.mobileframehangar.com/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=1491 |
15:50 | < Ceddo> | There we go! |
15:53 | < Dukayn> | woo |
16:03 | < Ceddo> | Done reading? |
16:03 | < Ceddo> | Did some editing (system dice) and fixed typos. |
16:04 | < Dukayn> | Yeah done |
16:04 | < Dukayn> | You got munched dude |
16:04 | < Ceddo> | What? |
16:04 | < Ceddo> | Nah. :D |
16:04 | < Dukayn> | No, Danni did |
16:04 | < Dukayn> | sorry got confused |
16:04 | < Ceddo> | The 13th was mine. |
16:04 | < Ceddo> | Yeah, he ate it pretty bad. |
16:04 | < Ceddo> | I mean, he leveled the playing field in turn #1. |
16:04 | < Ceddo> | That Chub was almost toast. |
16:05 | < Dukayn> | Yeah |
16:05 | < Dukayn> | but that one-shot on the Fidler |
16:05 | < Ceddo> | Yeah. :D |
16:05 | < Dukayn> | ouch |
16:05 | < Ceddo> | "So you take 5 damage." - "Okay, what does he have left?" - "Uhm ... nothing. Because he lost that spot before." - "Fuck." |
16:05 | < Ceddo> | But it was a 6 ATK |
16:05 | < Ceddo> | + 5 SPOT |
16:05 | < Ceddo> | On 3 DEF. |
16:05 | < Ceddo> | :D |
16:05 | < Ceddo> | Or something like that. |
16:06 | < MittenNinja> | Yeah. From what I've seen, blue dice are a bit overrated. |
16:06 | < MittenNinja> | Spot and movement is where its at. |
16:06 | < Ceddo> | Oh. |
16:06 | < Ceddo> | Oh can I hear that again? |
16:07 | < Dukayn> | lol |
16:07 | < Ceddo> | Wasn't that my fucking song? :D |
16:07 | < Ceddo> | I think it was! |
16:07 | < Ceddo> | :D |
16:07 | < MittenNinja> | Lol |
16:07 | < Ceddo> | You and your DF DF B B shens. |
16:07 | < Ceddo> | I even dropped the B on a 2 system 'frame. :D |
16:08 | < Ceddo> | "Meh, she'll be fine. SHELL AWAY, GIABENE!" |
16:08 | < MittenNinja> | I really need to go through and revamp my companies for con |
16:08 | < Ceddo> | Oh yeah. |
16:08 | < Ceddo> | You can take a look at the Vesopia Background thread. |
16:08 | < Ceddo> | I posted several company lists there. |
16:08 | < Dukayn> | BTW Mittens that Grand Naga joint works |
16:09 | < MittenNinja> | Awesome |
16:09 | < MittenNinja> | Yeah that joint is really dependant on having a good fresh lamp holder. |
16:09 | < Ceddo> | There are 2 'frames, in 10 companies, that have B B. :D |
16:09 | < Dukayn> | We'll see how it works in the brick :P |
16:09 | < MittenNinja> | It can be super sturdy with new parts but super flimsy with older ones |
16:09 | < Ceddo> | And there is one company of 8 that uses 2 B in TOTAL. |
16:10 | < MittenNinja> | Hahaha |
16:10 | < Ceddo> | I'll supergkue my Elder Naga. Fuck it. |
16:10 | < MittenNinja> | Lol |
16:10 | < Ceddo> | That lampholder won't work and the connection breaks off constantly. |
16:10 | < Ceddo> | I'm done goofing around. :D |
16:11 | < MittenNinja> | I had tp cycle through my parts to find ones tjat stayed solid |
16:11 | < Dukayn> | I tried gluing my broken clip tiles |
16:11 | < Dukayn> | only 1 stayed glued |
16:11 | < MittenNinja> | But once I did, the arms never fall off. |
16:11 | < Dukayn> | Probably didn't use enough |
16:12 | < Ceddo> | Superglue, man. |
16:12 | < Ceddo> | Dissolve that ABS. |
16:13 | < Ceddo> | And let it sit for a day. :D |
16:13 | < Dukayn> | I used Superglue |
16:13 | < Dukayn> | left it overnight |
16:13 | < Dukayn> | Just probably didn't use enough, like I said |
16:14 | < Dukayn> | I was very sparing |
16:14 | < Ceddo> | Fuck. |
16:14 | < Dukayn> | oh btw http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/ComeAtMeBro.png |
16:14 | < Dukayn> | http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/DatJumpPack.png |
16:14 | < Ceddo> | My superglue turned into A not-so-super-brick-of-plastic. |
16:15 | < Dukayn> | My only issue with that shoulder, is that it's so close to the cockpit (which can be fixed I know) and that it makes the shoulder pods look stupid. |
16:15 | < Dukayn> | but I might Travis that bitch and see how it looks. |
16:16 | < MittenNinja> | If you look at my meerkats they've pretty much got the exact same shoulder setup that you have now. |
16:16 | < Dukayn> | on those pics or on the original? |
16:16 | < MittenNinja> | The new ones |
16:17 | < Dukayn> | cool |
16:17 | < Dukayn> | Yeah I see it |
16:17 | < Dukayn> | looks good |
16:19 | < Ceddo> | oKAY: |
16:19 | < MittenNinja> | They fall apart whenever you try to adjust the positioning, but otherwise they stay nice and tight |
16:19 | < Ceddo> | So I just used some epoxide. |
16:19 | < Ceddo> | Well, modelling epoxide. So it's not the supergluey stuff. |
16:20 | < Ceddo> | But it'll be rock solid in a few hours. |
16:20 | < Ceddo> | Take that, lamp holder! |
16:20 | < Dukayn> | lol |
16:22 | < Ceddo> | Also, Dukey. |
16:23 | < Ceddo> | Didya see the stations? You were curious. |
16:23 | < Dukayn> | I did |
16:23 | < Dukayn> | nifty stuff :) |
16:23 | < Dukayn> | Nah Mittens, I like it |
16:23 | < Dukayn> | http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/SparrowhawkNewShoulders.png |
16:23 | < Dukayn> | http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/SparrowhawkNewShoulder.png |
16:23 | < Ceddo> | Four oh four! |
16:23 | < Dukayn> | DERP |
16:23 | < Dukayn> | FUCK YOUR FOUR OH FOUR |
16:23 | < Dukayn> | :D |
16:23 | < Ceddo> | That works. |
16:24 | < Ceddo> | Give it a bit broad stance. |
16:24 | < Ceddo> | *Gives |
16:24 | < Dukayn> | Yeah |
16:24 | < Dukayn> | Added a 1x1 plate and it made a huge difference |
16:24 | < Ceddo> | Let's see what I can muscle into this 'frame. :D |
16:24 | < Dukayn> | Do you want the LDD Ced? |
16:24 | < Ceddo> | Nah, freehand all day, son. |
16:24 | < Dukayn> | LOL |
16:25 | < Dukayn> | DAMMIT I WANT MY BRICKS NOW |
16:25 | < Dukayn> | WHY AREN'T THEY HERE YET |
16:25 | < Ceddo> | Also, as for you "stealing" parts from me ... |
16:25 | < Ceddo> | I am good. |
16:25 | < Ceddo> | I have everything build I will ever need. |
16:25 | < Ceddo> | All that's left is to play around with. :D |
16:25 | < Dukayn> | It's much appreciated. |
16:26 | < Dukayn> | I have a mate coming around tomorrow to sort through his Lego collection |
16:26 | < Ceddo> | Hrhr. |
16:26 | < Dukayn> | First order: filter out all the shit he will never use |
16:26 | < Ceddo> | Your bubble mailer should arrive next weekend or ... a bit later. |
16:26 | < Dukayn> | like, anything bigger than 2x4 :P |
16:26 | < Dukayn> | eh, it gets here when it gets here |
16:26 | < Dukayn> | I'm easy |
16:26 | < Ceddo> | Hey, 1x6 and 1x8 tiles = sword blade! |
16:27 | < Dukayn> | they're not bigger than 2x4 |
16:27 | < Dukayn> | 1x8 is the same surface area :P |
16:27 | < Ceddo> | Oh, okay, Mr. Geometry. |
16:27 | < Ceddo> | Sorry, I didn't know you were going by such a wholesome approach. |
16:27 | < Dukayn> | wholesome? me? hahahahahhahahahahahahahaha |
16:27 | < Ceddo> | Why don't you calculate the surface area of my dick while you're at it? |
16:28 | < Ceddo> | Because, I'mma slap you with it. |
16:28 | < Dukayn> | They haven't invented a measuring unit that small yet. |
16:28 | < Ceddo> | IT'S NOT A 1x8 TILE! |
16:28 | < Dukayn> | AW SNAP |
16:28 | < Ceddo> | Fruitless. |
16:28 | < Ceddo> | I AM WELL ARMED. |
16:28 | < Ceddo> | Anyway. |
16:28 | < Ceddo> | Back to this Spawk. |
16:28 | < Dukayn> | brings a whole new meaning to I DO TO YOU NOW THE TREMENDOUS HURT |
16:28 | < Ceddo> | Bwahaha. |
16:28 | < Dukayn> | or whatever that phrase is |
16:29 | < Dukayn> | So, Spawk, yes. |
16:30 | < MittenNinja> | You guys are ridiculous |
16:30 | < Ceddo> | On it like a bonnet, Dukey. |
16:30 | < Ceddo> | You are welcome, Greg. Cable is shit anyway. This entertainment here is for free. |
16:31 | < MittenNinja> | Ceddo, ill be sending over your "care package" on monday |
16:31 | < Ceddo> | Sweet! |
16:31 | < Ceddo> | As soon as I get those sandgreen tiles, they'll fly out. |
16:31 | < Ceddo> | ... should prolly order them. *rubs chin* |
16:31 | < MittenNinja> | Awesome. I really appreciate it man. |
16:31 | < MittenNinja> | Lol |
16:31 | < Ceddo> | :D |
16:32 | < Dukayn> | good luck |
16:32 | < Ceddo> | Nah, I'll get that done. Do you mind if I snatch like 10 of those? |
16:32 | < Dukayn> | Bricklink is being a bitch |
16:32 | < MittenNinja> | Not at all man. |
16:32 | < Ceddo> | Sweet. |
16:32 | < MittenNinja> | You are buying them after all :) |
16:32 | < Ceddo> | Well, WHO KNOWS, maybe you use 25 tiles on one 'frame you wanna build 4 of! |
16:33 | < Dukayn> | Damn, I need to buy another Sebulba Pod Racer. I need that spanner. |
16:33 | < MittenNinja> | Nah, those heavy Chubs are the biggest users of them. They use I think 12? |
16:33 | < Ceddo> | The Castellan Yuan-Ti uses 23 slopes. |
16:33 | < Ceddo> | The Elder Naga 25. :D |
16:34 | < Dukayn> | Dat shield |
16:34 | < Ceddo> | I just slapped them on every stud I found. |
16:34 | < Ceddo> | Dat Shield is fucking awesome. |
16:34 | < Dukayn> | hence "dat shield" |
16:34 | < Ceddo> | You will like this Spawk, man. |
16:35 | < Ceddo> | It already looks like it was built to walk the Ring to Mordor, and I have a leg done. :D |
16:35 | < Dukayn> | lol |
16:37 | < MittenNinja> | Slopes I have bunches of. You can thank the Brandenburg gate for that |
16:37 | < Ceddo> | I got two of those. Not fucking around. |
16:37 | < Ceddo> | I sent Soren 60 of them, though. |
16:37 | < MittenNinja> | Nice |
16:37 | < MittenNinja> | I just need to find 1x1 tiles and headlights now |
16:38 | < MittenNinja> | I nifty go buy one more Brandenburg set. There a bunch if useful tan in it too. |
16:38 | < MittenNinja> | *might |
16:38 | < Ceddo> | Yeah, especially for desert terrain. |
16:43 | < MittenNinja> | My iguanas only use 3 now, which means I can build lots of em |
16:43 | < MittenNinja> | 1x2s that is |
16:45 | < Ceddo> | My gosh, that 'frame looks so ... cohesive. |
16:45 | < Ceddo> | I am awefully proud of myself. |
16:45 | < Ceddo> | And it's becoming a mining 'frame. Sorry Dukey. |
16:45 | < Dukayn> | lol |
16:45 | < Dukayn> | that's ok |
16:45 | < MittenNinja> | Pictures? |
16:45 | < Dukayn> | you can misappropriate my stuff as much as you like |
16:45 | < Ceddo> | Of the WiP? |
16:45 | < Dukayn> | you're sending me free fucking lego |
16:45 | < Ceddo> | Sure, sec. *takes snapshot* |
16:47 | < MittenNinja> | Haha |
16:48 | < Ceddo> | http://www.ced23ric.de/stuff/mf0/spawk_b1.png |
16:49 | < Dukayn> | DUDE |
16:49 | < Ceddo> | Yah? |
16:49 | < Dukayn> | AWESOME |
16:49 | < Ceddo> | :D |
16:49 | < MittenNinja> | Ooooo I like |
16:49 | < Ceddo> | I was like: I have these fucking skis ... might as well use them. |
16:49 | < MittenNinja> | Npu with the skis |
16:49 | < Ceddo> | And then: But next to each other they look like poop ... .OOH, the 1x2 bar plate! |
16:49 | < Ceddo> | *clip clip* |
16:49 | < MittenNinja> | And as always the tires :) |
16:49 | < Ceddo> | YAY |
16:49 | < Ceddo> | LOVE TIRES. |
16:50 | < Ceddo> | Just makes it look more cohesive. |
16:50 | < MittenNinja> | Exactly |
16:50 | < Ceddo> | Time for a back module. |
16:50 | < MittenNinja> | Havig the matte black round shape in there really helps pull the frame together |
16:52 | < Ceddo> | Oh, that's nice. Totally oversized backpack is a go. |
16:53 | < Ceddo> | OH FUCK YES. |
16:53 | < Ceddo> | Lemme take a picture again. :D |
16:53 | < Dukayn> | lol |
16:54 | < Ceddo> | You will understand in a few moments, my friend from Down Under. |
16:55 | < Ceddo> | *uploads...!* |

16:56 | < Ceddo> | http://www.ced23ric.de/stuff/mf0/spawk_b4.png |
16:58 | < Dukayn> | Very nicely done |
16:58 | < Ceddo> | It flows so nice into the back. |
16:58 | < MittenNinja> | That is nice |
16:58 | < Dukayn> | So what did you keep? |
16:59 | < Ceddo> | Uhm. |
16:59 | < Dukayn> | Cos mostly it looks like the cockpit :P |
16:59 | < Ceddo> | The 2x4 and the two slopes? :D |
16:59 | < Dukayn> | lol |
16:59 | < Ceddo> | I told you that was gonna happen. ^^ |
16:59 | < Ceddo> | Okay, now ... arms. Or weapons. |
16:59 | < Ceddo> | Mhmm. Can I get a massive drill on there, somehow? *checks parts* |
16:59 | < Dukayn> | hehe |
17:00 | < Dukayn> | if you don't mind sending some breakdowns I'd love to see all the bits behind the cockpit |
17:00 | < Ceddo> | Yeah, no probs, I'll build you an LXF, if you'd like. |
17:00 | < Dukayn> | Course, that thing there is no longer my frame :P |
17:00 | < Ceddo> | It's all dirt simple. |
17:01 | < Ceddo> | I am just raping the lampholders until they cry themselves to sleep. |
17:01 | < Ceddo> | GUESS WHAT I JUST FOUND. |
17:01 | < Dukayn> | lol |
17:01 | < Dukayn> | massive drill? |
17:01 | < Ceddo> | If your guess is "A GIANT DRILL BIT" you are ... |
17:01 | < Ceddo> | ... yes. |
17:01 | < MittenNinja> | Lol |
17:02 | < Dukayn> | so are those 2 lamp holders still behind the cockpit? |
17:02 | < Ceddo> | There's 4. :D |
17:02 | < Dukayn> | haha |
17:02 | < Dukayn> | Ah so that's what holds those on the side |
17:03 | < Ceddo> | Bottom 2x2 section of the thing is covered with a 1x2 and a 1x2 bar plate. |
17:03 | < Ceddo> | Add 4 lampholders, 2 facing back, 2 sideways. |
17:03 | < Ceddo> | As spacers, I used clip plates, to which the T piece attaches. |
17:05 | < Dukayn> | the sideways lamp holders, where are they attached? the 1x2 plate? |
17:06 | < Ceddo> | The bar plate upfront. |
17:06 | < Dukayn> | ah ok |
17:06 | < Ceddo> | Where the "headlights" are. |
17:06 | < Dukayn> | I thought so but it didn't look like there was room for the other plates you have on ther e:P |
17:06 | < Ceddo> | The jumpers? |
17:07 | < Dukayn> | oh I see, the lamp is the black |
17:07 | < Dukayn> | then there's the slope in front |
17:07 | < Dukayn> | the others are behind it |
17:07 | < Ceddo> | Yupp. |
17:08 | < Ceddo> | Exactly. |
17:08 | < Ceddo> | BAHAHAHA. |
17:08 | < Ceddo> | This looks ridic. |
17:09 | < Ceddo> | Do I get bonus points for the drill turning AND the 'frame being stable when it's the most imbalancingly positioned? |
17:09 | < Dukayn> | of course |
17:10 | < Ceddo> | I know what I need now. |
17:10 | < Ceddo> | Motherfucking blastshield. |
17:23 | < Dukayn> | I'm off in 5 |
17:23 | < Dukayn> | 2.30am and all :P |
17:24 | < Ceddo> | Gimme 5 to upload. |
17:24 | < Ceddo> | It's worth it. |
17:24 | < Dukayn> | kk |
17:25 | < Ceddo> | Okay, taking pics now. |

17:30 | < Ceddo> | WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT. |
17:30 | < Ceddo> | :D |
17:30 | < MittenNinja> | Nicely done sir |
17:30 | < Ceddo> | *bows* Thanks. |
17:30 | < Ceddo> | Go big or go home. |
17:30 | < Dukayn> | I can't in good conscience call that a Sparrowhawk |
17:30 | < Dukayn> | :P |
17:30 | < Ceddo> | I call it ... the Canary. |
17:31 | < Dukayn> | LOL |
17:31 | < Dukayn> | Good call |
17:31 | < Ceddo> | No, dude, it makes total sense! |
17:31 | < Dukayn> | I know |
17:31 | < Dukayn> | Hence good call |
17:31 | < Ceddo> | It's a Spawk variant that works in a mineshaft! |
17:31 | < Ceddo> | Thanks. :D |
17:31 | < Dukayn> | That needs it's own thread |
17:31 | < Ceddo> | I'll do one up, if you want me to. |
17:32 | < Dukayn> | It's your frame, mate :) |
17:32 | < Ceddo> | It's yours aswell! |
17:33 | < Dukayn> | It used to be LOL |
17:33 | < Dukayn> | That's all yours |
17:33 | < Ceddo> | Danni will love him. |

17:39 | < Ceddo> | Heh. Very well! |
17:39 | < Ceddo> | Yours doesn't have headlights yet. ^^ |
17:40 | < Dukayn> | Haha no |
17:40 | < Dukayn> | And I don't like the shoulder pods like that |
17:40 | < Dukayn> | I might bring the arms back in without the tyres. |
17:40 | | * Ceddo imagines the Canary to hide behind the shield and drill until the teeth are all dull. And the shield looks like it has been used at a shooting range. |
17:41 | < Ceddo> | What the Spawk's MDS? |
17:41 | < Dukayn> | MDS? |
17:41 | < Ceddo> | Manufacturer Designation Short or something. |
17:42 | < Dukayn> | ah right |
17:42 | < Dukayn> | JA-04 I think |
17:42 | < Ceddo> | Alright, I'll use that. |
17:42 | < Dukayn> | yep 04 |

18:49 | < Ceddo> | How's things? |
18:50 | < Soren> | not at all bad! |
18:50 | < Ceddo> | You misse the story of my 60% discount at a Lego store, the Canary mining 'frame and my battle report. |
18:50 | < Soren> | I saw the canary! I did not see the rest. |
18:50 | < Soren> | I have some big chrome drills in a bag somewhere. |
18:50 | < Ceddo> | <Ceddo> LISTEN CLOSELY AND LEARN. <--- Search for this line in the logs. |

19:36 | < Soren> | Reading stories about Ced stealing bricks is like reading about kids getting in trouble for violating curfew by 15 minutes. |
19:37 | < Soren> | You're so German. Even when you steal shit you have to pay for it. |
19:37 | < Soren> | So orderly. |
19:38 | < Ceddo> | But I palmed a lot of bricks ... :( |
19:39 | < Soren> | pff yeah whatever. You don't get criminal cred until you're actually palming shit you didn't even order. |
19:47 | < Soren> | Okay, done with the logs |
19:47 | < Ceddo> | Heh. |
19:47 | < Ceddo> | Welcome back! |

19:48 | < Soren> | oh, these are Special Edition kits. You've seen 'em. |
19:48 | < Ceddo> | And: Danni wants a rematch. I think I'm getting him hooked. |
19:50 | < Soren> | excellent. |
19:51 | < Ceddo> | And he realized what is just slowly trickling into people's heads on the board. |
19:51 | < Ceddo> | Spot wins the game. |
19:51 | < Ceddo> | Def is neglectable. |
19:53 | < Soren> | yeah |
19:54 | < Soren> | I still want to try that double-direct shield-generator asshole. |
19:54 | < Soren> | But I might give him 2Y, too. |
19:54 | < Ceddo> | DF DF B B? |
19:54 | < Ceddo> | "Tank". :D |
19:54 | < Soren> | YYBBGd8 |
19:54 | < Soren> | 'Sentry' :D |
19:54 | < Ceddo> | "Useless" |
19:55 | < Ceddo> | It's like playing paintball and bolting a Red Dot sight to your marker. And foregrip. And rails. |
19:55 | < Ceddo> | It may seem cool, but it's really just deadweight that makes you inefficient. |
19:56 | < Soren> | My thinking is that I can use it to shield HtH frames. |
19:56 | < Soren> | I'm less interested in optimal play and more interested in awesome weird cheese. |

19:57 | < Soren> | I want to discover every fucked-up corner case and make it work for me. |
19:57 | < Ceddo> | But then you'd be using HtH. |
19:57 | < Ceddo> | As in: Fail. |
19:57 | < Soren> | Because I'll share it with the internet like a gentleman, while there's some asshole out there who would spring it on people hatefully. |
19:57 | < Ceddo> | I'm pretty sure that's a jab. |
19:58 | < Soren> | actually, no! |
19:59 | < Soren> | You've been pretty adamant about sharing your insights. |
20:00 | < Ceddo> | Well, so it IS a jab. |
20:00 | < Ceddo> | At someone else, though. |
20:00 | < Ceddo> | No, I share my insights constantly. |
20:00 | < Soren> | at the archetype. |
20:00 | < Ceddo> | In 2038, a gang of scavengers infiltrate an industrial complex on a island within a prohibited zone. They are looking for the element Texmexium, which is rare and very valuable. |
20:00 | < Ceddo> | ... sure. |
20:00 | < Ceddo> | Tex Mex cheese mix is like 9 bucks at the Avondale in Niagara Falls, I know that. |
20:01 | < Soren> | players who find exploits and hide them from other players should have their genitals flattened out with a rubber mallet. |
20:03 | < randolph> | <Ceddo> And he realized what is just slowly trickling into people's heads on the board. |
20:03 | < randolph> | Pff, been saying it from the start~ |
20:03 | < Ceddo> | Not talking about you. |
20:03 | < Soren> | You're here, not on the board. |
20:03 | < randolph> | But I'm a beautiful snowflake too :| |
20:04 | < Soren> | We're cowards, we only talk shit about people who can't hear us. |
20:04 | < Ceddo> | But there's still people who jerk off on B B 'frames. |
20:04 | < randolph> | hehe |
20:04 | < Ceddo> | Nah, I talk shit about erryone. |
20:04 | < Soren> | not so much ''jerk off' as 'want to find a use for' |
20:04 | < randolph> | My holy trinity is: Action Economy, Asymmetrical Engagement, Soft Neutralization |
20:04 | < Soren> | I think 2B is really the only way to make a viable HtH closer, for example. |
20:05 | < Soren> | it's not a good idea. I'm still about as anti-HtH as I can be while still actually being involved in the project, but it's a valid role. |
20:05 | < randolph> | I really, really, REALLY want to like HTH |
20:05 | < randolph> | In every game system I play, I try to make a martial artist |
20:05 | < Ceddo> | I gave up on HtH. |
20:05 | < Ceddo> | It's inefficient. |
20:05 | < randolph> | I'm going to make it work, dammit >_< |
20:06 | < Soren> | brb |
20:06 | < Ceddo> | HtH does nothing I cannot do better with DF. |
20:06 | < randolph> | Destroy dudes at point blank range? |
20:06 | < Ceddo> | Did you see Dukey's SH-A oneshot Carrot? |
20:06 | < randolph> | I did. But anyone can roll god dice sometime |
20:06 | < Ceddo> | Did you read my battle report where a concerted strike of two Chubs ripped a 'frame in cover to shreds? |
20:07 | | KarolineDianne [NSwebIRC@Nightstar-35371e3c.hstntx.sbcglobal.net] has joined #mf0 |
20:07 | < randolph> | EV of Direct/Artillery against cover is 1 in 6 |
20:07 | < randolph> | EV of HtH against fuck-your-cover is 1 in 2 |
20:07 | < KarolineDianne> | Yo yo yo |
20:07 | < randolph> | Hey Karoline |
20:07 | < Ceddo> | That's what it seems like. |
20:07 | < Ceddo> | But do you know what the EV of HtH is 1 unit away? |
20:07 | < randolph> | That's MATH. It's not layers of perception |
20:07 | < Ceddo> | 0 in infinity. |
20:08 | < randolph> | Nuh-uh, not if my Blink cooldown is up >_< |
20:08 | < Ceddo> | And a mere d8G is not gonna get you there. |
20:08 | < KarolineDianne> | EV? |
20:08 | < randolph> | Expected Value |
20:08 | < randolph> | I have a post in General with a chart |
20:08 | < randolph> | lemme dig it up |
20:08 | < Ceddo> | And even still, all the time you spend walking up, guess what DF does? |
20:08 | < randolph> | http://www.mobileframehangar.com/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1041 |
20:08 | < Ceddo> | That's right. Fire. |
20:08 | < Ceddo> | Direct EV comparison in a vacuum is pointless. |
20:08 | < randolph> | Ced: I know. I love kiting. USF is built around the Trinity |
20:09 | < randolph> | I'm just saying, there's gotta be a way to make it work |
20:09 | < randolph> | If there isn't... MFZ isn't balanced |
20:09 | < Ceddo> | You need to understand the correlation of effective range and threatened area in cohesion with EV. |
20:09 | < randolph> | Absolutely |
20:09 | < randolph> | I do. |
20:09 | < Ceddo> | And you will see that HtH sucks a big, mean dick. |
20:09 | < Ceddo> | Here's the worst. |
20:09 | < randolph> | I'm not saying "It definitely works" I'm saying "I must be missing something, because Josh and Vincent couldn't have... right?" |
20:09 | < Ceddo> | Don't need HtH system. I can still headbump you into submission. :D |
20:10 | < randolph> | Well |
20:10 | < Ceddo> | Totes works. |
20:10 | < randolph> | The 2:1 conversion rate means that d8 hits a lot more |
20:10 | < Ceddo> | Eh. *shrug* |
20:10 | < randolph> | Again, I don't have the answers |
20:10 | < randolph> | What I have right now is *faith* |
20:10 | < randolph> | Desperate, fanboyish faith |
20:10 | < Ceddo> | Good sir. |
20:10 | < Ceddo> | This is not the first game I played. |
20:11 | < Ceddo> | I do have an eye for the gamings of the power. |
20:11 | < Ceddo> | And I also see weak combinations. |
20:11 | < randolph> | I will not deny you your credentials, good sir |
20:11 | < randolph> | But leave me my faith >_< |
20:11 | < Ceddo> | H H B B is probably the worst 'frame you could build. |
20:11 | < Ceddo> | Even D B outperforms that. |
20:11 | < Ceddo> | And yes, now I am getting preposterous. |
20:12 | < KarolineDianne> | I'm just confused now. |
20:12 | < randolph> | TL: DR; <Ced> HtH sucks! <R> Yes, but I want it not to suck! the end |
20:12 | < Ceddo> | But in the Battle Report you can see an A B 'frame prime one, kill one and damaged one 'frame. ;) |
20:12 | < Ceddo> | -d |
20:13 | < Ceddo> | Puny little 2 system 'frame. Even took damage on turn #1. |
20:13 | < Ceddo> | Guess what? Dropped the Def. |
20:13 | < Ceddo> | And then, engaged HtH with a 'frame down to 2 Whites. |
20:13 | < KarolineDianne> | H H B B gets the free d8G to move. It has good defense, and hits hard when it gets in reach. What's wrong with it? |
20:13 | < Ceddo> | Totes worked. :D |
20:13 | < MittenNinja> | It's worthless when you can't get into reach |
20:14 | < Ceddo> | KD: It's slow, it's ability slows it down further or is not used, and it cannot dish out without getting superclose. |
20:14 | < Ceddo> | H H B B is a deadweight. |
20:14 | < MittenNinja> | And you pretty much need lucky rolls to get into reach of anyone who's trying to stay away from you |
20:14 | < Ceddo> | Especially if you only have that one d8G and your whites. |
20:14 | < MittenNinja> | BB YY is ten tines better |
20:14 | < randolph> | Karoline: If you check out the WT doctrine sim in battle reports, my USF fought a HtH-heavy company |
20:14 | < MittenNinja> | You can still use your white for hth and you can spot and provide cover |
20:15 | < Ceddo> | Which you cannot use properly if you want to provide cover - because the covered 'frames need to be in 1 unit cohesion. |
20:15 | < KarolineDianne> | You guys are confusing me... |
20:15 | < randolph> | Especially in the 2nd sim, I just completely dismantled them - they couldn't get close enough to fight for many, many activations |
20:15 | < Ceddo> | So you either outrun your covered 'frames and stop using the only advantage of BB or you stay with the slowest 'frame and are slow yourself. |
20:16 | < Ceddo> | It's actually fairly simple. |
20:16 | < KarolineDianne> | The only advantage of BB...? I'm pretty sure the main advantage is a higher chance of defense 6 |
20:16 | < Ceddo> | Which means jack. |
20:16 | < randolph> | Yes but |
20:16 | < randolph> | Here's the damage calc: |
20:16 | < randolph> | Attack + Spot - Defense |
20:16 | < Ceddo> | Exactly. |
20:16 | < randolph> | This is the EV: d6 (3.5) + d6 (3.5) - d6 (3.5) |
20:16 | < randolph> | If you ever spot, defense means dick |
20:16 | < Ceddo> | Truth. |
20:16 | < Ceddo> | I had a game with a 'frame, Def 6. |
20:17 | < Ceddo> | Had a spot 5. |
20:17 | < Ceddo> | Took an ATK 8. |
20:17 | < randolph> | And everyone *will spot*, because spot is that good |
20:17 | < Ceddo> | Bamm, whites only, one shot. |
20:17 | < KarolineDianne> | Right... |
20:18 | < KarolineDianne> | I'm just gonna go with you guys are silly and leave it at that. |
20:18 | < randolph> | ... Why? |
20:18 | < MittenNinja> | Yeah, blue dice are very underpowered. Which makes me a bit sad |
20:18 | < randolph> | I've got Maths |
20:18 | < randolph> | I've also got Sims |
20:18 | < KarolineDianne> | Maths mean nothing to me. |
20:18 | < randolph> | :| |
20:18 | < randolph> | Ion-powered Violins? |
20:18 | < randolph> | The violins swear that blue is underpowered. |
20:19 | < Ceddo> | Truth. |
20:19 | < MittenNinja> | I mean think of it this way. |
20:19 | < KarolineDianne> | Anyway, I just posted some new picks to the flickr stream |
20:19 | < MittenNinja> | You could have a blue die which you can apply to def and use your white for move |
20:20 | < MittenNinja> | Or you could have a green die which gives you the ability to move through cover and use your white for def |
20:20 | < randolph> | Yeah, it's not that defense is *bad*, it's that it's an opportunity cost. |
20:20 | < MittenNinja> | Same amount if dice, but the green gives you an extra ability |
20:20 | < MittenNinja> | The blue does not |
20:20 | < MittenNinja> | Blue dice don't give you much of a benefit over using white dice for ded |
20:21 | < MittenNinja> | *def |
20:21 | < Ceddo> | KD: Damage isn't guns, it's spot. Def isn't Blue, it's movement (into cover). Spotting isn't neat, it's damage. Movement isn't fast, it's doubling up on Def and obstacle mitigation. |
20:21 | < MittenNinja> | And that's the problem |
20:21 | < Ceddo> | That is all you need to know, really. |
20:22 | < randolph> | I think we scared her off, gents |
20:22 | < Ceddo> | Yeah. |
20:22 | < Ceddo> | :/ |
20:22 | < KarolineDianne> | You guys really don't make any sense to me. |
20:22 | < randolph> | Can you verbalize the part that is unintelligible, so that we may better formulate our case? |
20:22 | < Ceddo> | I tried to summarize it. No dice? |
20:23 | < KarolineDianne> | I don't think it matters. I doubt anything you say can change the way I see it... It's kind of how I am. |
20:23 | < MittenNinja> | Blue dice aren't any better and doing what they do than white dice. So its better to spend your systems on dice that will do the job better than white dice. |
20:23 | < MittenNinja> | That's the simplist way I can put it |
20:23 | < Ceddo> | KD: Well, then you are deliberately ignorant to the reality of the system. D: |
20:24 | < randolph> | MN: I think there's a slight increase when you pack Blues |
20:24 | < Ceddo> | There is, EV go up for sure. |
20:24 | < randolph> | i.e. BBWW gives higher EV than WW alone |
20:24 | < Ceddo> | But the payoff is minuscule. |
20:24 | < randolph> | But... it still caps at 6, is the problem |
20:24 | < randolph> | If the 2nd B changed it into d8s... |
20:24 | < Ceddo> | And the special ability of BB is actually a drawback or a deadweight. |
20:24 | < MittenNinja> | Eight but you have to use those whites for movement which really means its BBW |
20:24 | < MittenNinja> | *right |
20:24 | < Ceddo> | More like BB. |
20:24 | < Ceddo> | You want to spot, right? ;) |
20:25 | < randolph> | I think double weapon systems are overrated |
20:25 | < MittenNinja> | Well I was assuming a yellow die |
20:25 | < MittenNinja> | Agreed |
20:25 | < KarolineDianne> | Blue dice means I can use them instead of white. Then I can save my whites for movement or spotting or replacing bad red dice. |
20:25 | < Ceddo> | KD; Okay, get this. |
20:25 | < randolph> | KD: But the same is true in reverse |
20:25 | < KarolineDianne> | And if it's a melee frame, I get a free green die as it is. |
20:25 | < Ceddo> | Y is better at Spot as W. |
20:25 | < KarolineDianne> | So there's no point in grabbing another |
20:25 | < Ceddo> | Why? |
20:25 | < Ceddo> | Because it spots in cover. |
20:25 | < Ceddo> | W can't do that. |
20:25 | < randolph> | "Green dice means I can use them instead of white. Then I can save my whites for defense or spotting or replacing bad red dice" |
20:26 | < Ceddo> | G is better at movement than W. Why? Because it can move in/through cover. W can't do that. |
20:26 | < randolph> | Right, but she's assuming HtH |
20:26 | < randolph> | So let's use Y instead |
20:26 | < Ceddo> | B is JUST THE SAME as W in Def. It cannot do anything better than W. |
20:26 | < Ceddo> | BB, now CAN do something W cannot. But if you USE the BB ability, you need to SLOW DOWN. The column moves at the speed of the slowest 'frame. |
20:27 | < Ceddo> | If it doesn't, the BB ability does not work. |
20:27 | < randolph> | Which is fine in certain combos |
20:27 | < MittenNinja> | Honestly I think the only die worth doubling up on at all is Y |
20:27 | < Ceddo> | Obviously. |
20:27 | < KarolineDianne> | If I get a free green die that's BIGGER than an actual green system, AND has all the same benefits, there's no point in taking another one instead of a blue die. Now I have blue and green. Now my white dice are free to do -anything- at their leisure. |
20:27 | < Ceddo> | Because you can cross-spot. |
20:27 | < KarolineDianne> | Cross-spot...? |
20:27 | < Ceddo> | KD: Yes and no. You play HtH, you don't need EV movement, you need peak movement. |
20:27 | < randolph> | Ok, so take your free d8G, but why take the blue at all instead of yellow or red? |
20:28 | < Ceddo> | Yeah, I shoot at A in DF range and Spot B at Arty range. |
20:28 | < Ceddo> | Somewhere over there, for my other 'frames. |
20:28 | < Ceddo> | I spot across the battlefield. Crossspot. |
20:28 | < Ceddo> | Also, 1d8 is not enough movement. |
20:28 | < Ceddo> | Not for HtH. |
20:29 | < KarolineDianne> | 8 is THE ABSOLUTE MAX YOU CAN POSSIBLY ROLL IN THIS GAME |
20:29 | < KarolineDianne> | How is it not enough? |
20:29 | < randolph> | Yeah, HtH needs burst movement, not average movement |
20:29 | < randolph> | Ok, so you have 1d8 movement. |
20:29 | < Ceddo> | DF falling one unit short? Meh, you have 8 units threat and fire. |
20:29 | < randolph> | 1/8 of the time, you move 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. |
20:29 | < Ceddo> | HtH falling one unit short? All is forfeit. |
20:29 | | * KarolineDianne shakes her head |
20:29 | < randolph> | HtH *needs* X movement THIS TURN to do anything. |
20:29 | < Ceddo> | It doesn't need "some movement". |
20:29 | < randolph> | If it rolls less than X, you've wasted an entire round |
20:30 | < randolph> | And you have ONE DIE to do that |
20:30 | < Ceddo> | Because HtH has no threat bubble. |
20:30 | < KarolineDianne> | I don't see any point to any of this. |
20:30 | < Ceddo> | How can you not?` |
20:30 | < randolph> | I feel like I'm missing someting. |
20:30 | < KarolineDianne> | You guys aren't making any sense to me at all |
20:30 | < Ceddo> | You are not listening, then. |
20:30 | < randolph> | Ok, will you read my sim, PLEASE. |
20:30 | < randolph> | It's not maths. |
20:30 | < randolph> | It's just a play by play |
20:30 | < KarolineDianne> | No matter what, your dice will be random. |
20:31 | < Ceddo> | Not exactly. |
20:31 | < KarolineDianne> | There is NO way to -guarantee- anything |
20:31 | < randolph> | You will see that the d8 HtH frames, EVEN WITH 8s, cannot catch me |
20:31 | < randolph> | EVER |
20:31 | < Ceddo> | You can alter the likelihood. |
20:31 | < randolph> | I used an overlay template to show you how far they can move at range 8 |
20:31 | < Ceddo> | The more shots at a high number you have, the more likey one will appear. |
20:31 | < randolph> | They could *never catch me* |
20:31 | < Soren> | Oh boy. I leave and the butthole of channel drama just prolapses like whoa in here. |
20:31 | < Soren> | *flop* |
20:31 | < KarolineDianne> | "Randalph you're flat-out lying |
20:31 | < Ceddo> | You're not Canadian, stop that. |
20:32 | < Ceddo> | Dafuq. |
20:32 | < randolph> | ... |
20:32 | < KarolineDianne> | If you roll all 1's and I roll all 8's, I CATCH YOU |
20:32 | < Ceddo> | No. |
20:32 | < Ceddo> | He is 12 units away. |
20:32 | < randolph> | No, really, check the sim |
20:32 | < KarolineDianne> | IT IS POSSIBLE |
20:32 | < Ceddo> | You don't catch him. |
20:32 | < Ceddo> | No. |
20:32 | < randolph> | I show all my dice |
20:32 | < Ceddo> | He is 12 units away. |
20:32 | < Ceddo> | You wasted a turn. He shoots you. |
20:32 | < randolph> | Yes, if you always roll 8s and I always roll 1s, you will catch me |
20:32 | < Ceddo> | Which doesn't happen. |
20:32 | < randolph> | But it takes me 2-3 activations to melt a dude |
20:33 | < randolph> | So I melt the one that will reach me in 2 turns |
20:33 | < KarolineDianne> | "He's 12 units away. Okay. I get to move 8. He moves 1. Now he's 5 units away. I roll 8 again, he rolls 1... I CATCH HIM |
20:33 | < randolph> | He doesn't get that far |
20:33 | < Ceddo> | No, you are dead. |
20:33 | < Ceddo> | Or crippled to the point of combat inefficiency. |
20:33 | < KarolineDianne> | Having more G systems doesn't change that in the slightest. There's no point to this argument, then. |
20:33 | < Ceddo> | There is. |
20:33 | < KarolineDianne> | And you're assuming you do damage. |
20:33 | < Ceddo> | Which will happen. |
20:33 | < randolph> | Well, yeah, all of them are 2Y |
20:34 | < Ceddo> | Your Def is constantly atleast -1, if not -6 |
20:34 | < KarolineDianne> | Saying -you will never catch me- is an enormous fallacy that makes no sense. |
20:34 | < Ceddo> | At LEAST -1 |
20:34 | < Ceddo> | It's a generalization to emphasize a point. |
20:34 | < randolph> | "You will never catch me before enough damage makes catching me irrelevant?" |
20:35 | < Ceddo> | The point being, HtH needs burst movement or is toast. |
20:35 | < randolph> | I feel like this medium isn't sufficient for explaining |
20:35 | < KarolineDianne> | Having more d6's won't make you go faster. In that scenario, you CANNOT MOVE 12 UNITS |
20:35 | < KarolineDianne> | EVER |
20:35 | < Ceddo> | Every turn a 'frame does not deal damage or spot for a damage dealer, it's useless. |
20:35 | < KarolineDianne> | NO MATTER WHAT YO HAVE |
20:35 | < Ceddo> | Calm down. |
20:36 | < Ceddo> | The point for the extra movement system is a different topic. |
20:36 | < randolph> | I'm not able to help here, I'll make a chart or something and post it later. In the meantime, visiting pick-a-brick wall |
20:36 | < randolph> | Take care all |
20:36 | < Ceddo> | Topic 1: BB is worse than YY or YG. |
20:36 | < Ceddo> | Topic 2: HtH is weak. |
20:36 | < Ceddo> | Topic 3: 1d8 G is not enough to assure speed. |
20:36 | < Ceddo> | These interact, obviously. |
20:37 | < KarolineDianne> | In this situation, where you're so far away that it's impossible to get to him in one turn, PERIOD. There's no point in having more G systems, they won't get you there in one turn. It's impossible. So, I'm of the opinion that having something that helps keep you alive on the way there, such as defense, would be more useful. |
20:38 | < Ceddo> | Okay, I think I am at loss, too. |
20:38 | < Ceddo> | I'll give it a rest. |
20:38 | < Ceddo> | Going for a smoke. |
20:38 | < KarolineDianne> | It seems to me that his example just proved my point, really. |
20:42 | | * KarolineDianne shall keep hold of her largely blue company... Both in color scheme and dice. |
20:42 | < Ceddo> | You know what: That's fine. |
20:42 | < Ceddo> | You do it your way. |
20:44 | < KarolineDianne> | They were originally going to be brown and tan, but none of the stores I tried had the right pieces in those colors. |
20:44 | < KarolineDianne> | I was so sad. I wanted to run my Varay Rattlesnakes. |
20:44 | < Ceddo> | Blue makes for a great "law enforcement" theme. |
20:44 | < Ceddo> | Plain blue goes well with black and white. |
20:45 | < Ceddo> | Dark blue goes well with dark grey and black. |
20:45 | < KarolineDianne> | Yeah, I thought my first Vulture looked like a police or security mech |
20:46 | < Ceddo> | You've seen the 13th Guard, eh? Ironically, my fav company thus far. |
20:46 | < Ceddo> | And They are actually just for demo games. |
20:46 | < KarolineDianne> | The who? |
20:47 | < Ceddo> | http://www.ced23ric.de/stuff/mf0/13th_guard_b4.png |
20:47 | < Ceddo> | http://www.ced23ric.de/stuff/mf0/st07x_chub_b1.png |
20:47 | < Ceddo> | Those 8 are the 13th Guard. |
20:48 | < KarolineDianne> | Oh, yeah I saw them. Can't say I like the missile launchers in the second pic, though. |
20:48 | < Ceddo> | LRM racks. Lotsa missiles. |
20:49 | < Ceddo> | I could invert the whole shebang and use cones instead. |
20:49 | < Ceddo> | But I won't get the 5-pattern. |
20:53 | < Ceddo> | This store is currently closed to the general public. If the seller has authorized you to buy from this store, enter the store password in the box above. |
20:53 | < Ceddo> | THE FUCK ISSAT SHIT. |
20:55 | < KarolineDianne> | Check and see if it's Bricklink Store 51 |
20:55 | < Ceddo> | Nah, it's some German Store. |
20:57 | < MittenNinja> | For the sand green? |
20:58 | < Ceddo> | Yuss. D: |
20:58 | < Ceddo> | I hope it's just over the weekend. |
20:58 | < MittenNinja> | Hopefully |
20:58 | < Ceddo> | But that store is fully infected with assholitis anyway. |
20:58 | < Ceddo> | "BUY 500 OR DIE IN A FIRE." |
20:58 | < MittenNinja> | Lol |
20:59 | < MittenNinja> | Luckily I actually want extremely large quantities of those suckers |
21:00 | < Ceddo> | Dude, when I order 100 of them, he's gonna be like: |
21:00 | < Ceddo> | "MOTHERTRUCKER. ANOTHER MINBUY. DAMN! *angrily throws a single bag into a mailer* FUCK THAT KID, I'LL FART INTO HIS BAGGY." |
21:00 | < KarolineDianne> | wat |
21:00 | < MittenNinja> | Lol |
21:01 | < Soren> | hahaha |
21:01 | < KarolineDianne> | You sound like the Turretes(Or however you spell it) guy... |
21:01 | < Ceddo> | Tourette's Syndrome. |
21:01 | < Ceddo> | Can be either kinetic, verbal or both. |
21:02 | < Ceddo> | Usually involves swear words. |
21:02 | < Ceddo> | But I actually talk like that in the calmest manner ever. |
21:02 | < Ceddo> | "So, yeah, that fucking guy fucked all that shit to fucking hell ... *takes a puff.* Fuck." |
21:02 | < KarolineDianne> | Hey, watch your fucking language |
21:02 | < Soren> | I think people with Tourette's probably curse less than I do. They sure enjoy it less. |
21:03 | < Ceddo> | Oh, dude. |
21:03 | < Ceddo> | There is a guy at my work. |
21:03 | < Ceddo> | House mail. |
21:03 | < Ceddo> | He is FUCKED. |
21:03 | < Ceddo> | He walks down the hallway, talking to himself: |
21:03 | < Soren> | poor guy. |
21:04 | < Ceddo> | "Oh you're dirt, DIRT, I say, DIRT. Oh yeah. They will find out. Everyone will find out, and then ... Oh, hello there Mr. Rasch. How are youu doing? Fine? Well, I'll be on my way. ... and then, when the bombs blow up, they will know it was you all along. You dickbutt. Idiot. YOu don't deserve to ... Ah. Mrs. Meier, here's your mail." |
21:05 | < KarolineDianne> | ... wat |
21:05 | < Ceddo> | I am not joking. |
21:05 | < Ceddo> | Happens every day. |
21:05 | < Ceddo> | He walks down the halls and mutter stuff like that. |
21:05 | < Ceddo> | Switches to casual convos and then ... goes back to it. |
21:07 | < Ceddo> | Mittens, do you think you can take a different video? |
21:07 | < Ceddo> | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7YwY1LyeNA |
21:07 | < Ceddo> | It's very different. |
21:09 | < MittenNinja> | I cant watch it right now. I'm at work and I'm on via my phone. |
21:09 | < Ceddo> | Ah, gotcha. |
21:11 | < MittenNinja> | As much as I love all the fun frames, im still looking forward to building a full company of black/sand green fat Snakes and decking them out. |
21:16 | < Soren> | I really want to see that. |
21:17 | < MittenNinja> | I still need to get some more pieces before I can pull it off though. |
21:18 | < Ceddo> | I'll get you those tiles ASAP. :D |
21:19 | < MittenNinja> | Namely 2x2 plates, headlights, and 1x1 tiles |
21:19 | < MittenNinja> | Oh I don't need the 1x2s for those |
21:19 | < Ceddo> | Mhmm. |
21:19 | < Ceddo> | Want me to shift priority and got those other parts? |
21:20 | < Ceddo> | What is the number count on those? |
21:20 | < MittenNinja> | Don't worry about it. Just getting the headlights would cost ~$20 |
21:23 | < Ceddo> | Bwahahaha. |
21:23 | < Ceddo> | Okay, gotta run, BIAB. |
21:23 | | Ceddo is now known as Ced|OnAMission |
21:42 | < KarolineDianne> | I need to order a billion dark blue pieces... PLates, wedges, tiles... |
21:42 | < KarolineDianne> | If I'm going for this dark blue color scheme... I need more of it. |
21:46 | < MittenNinja> | Yeah, it looks super slick with bley |
21:46 | < MittenNinja> | I want to build a grand Naga out of that eventually |
21:48 | < KarolineDianne> | bley? |
21:49 | < MittenNinja> | Blueish grey |
21:49 | < MittenNinja> | Which is what the new greys are |
21:50 | < MittenNinja> | The old shook greys are a different hue |
21:50 | < MittenNinja> | *school |
21:50 | < KarolineDianne> | Ah |
21:50 | < KarolineDianne> | WHat looks great in bley? |
21:53 | | * Soren throws some new gray bits into Mittens' bin of Custom company stuff. |
21:55 | < MittenNinja> | Ooooo thanks! |
21:55 | < KarolineDianne> | ::D |
21:55 | | * KarolineDianne puts her spare eyes away |
21:55 | < MittenNinja> | Hey Soren, did you want magnets? |
21:56 | < MittenNinja> | And or.magnet brackets? |
22:02 | < Soren> | yes please, if you have any clean, relatively unyellowed white ones. |
22:02 | < Soren> | I've got magnets out the ass, though |
22:03 | < MittenNinja> | I don't know if I have any whites, I do have some reds and maybe a couple blues though |
22:09 | < Ced|OnAMission> | I have returned. |

22:24 | | mode/#mf0 [+qo Noah Noah] by ChanServ |
22:25 | < Ceddo> | Mhmm ... |
22:25 | < Ceddo> | 24 blue, 24 yellow ... |
22:25 | < Ceddo> | 8 green, 8 d8 green .. |
22:25 | < Ceddo> | Should get 16 white. |
22:25 | <~Noah> | figuring out the most dice you'd need? |
22:26 | < Ceddo> | Yeah, for 4 players. |
22:26 | < Ceddo> | With 6 'frames each. |
22:26 | <~Noah> | Ahh |
22:27 | < Ceddo> | But I buy the blue and yellow in 36 chessex boxes anyway. |
22:27 | < Ceddo> | So feel free to bring 8 'frames. :D |
22:27 | <~Noah> | That'd cover it for sure, I'd guess you'd need 25 yellow |
22:27 | < Ceddo> | I'll have 36 of yellow and blue. |
22:28 | < Ceddo> | Then, I need 16 d6 red and 8 d8 red. |
22:28 | <~Noah> | Well, no, because the last frame's spot would go unused |
22:28 | < Ceddo> | Actually, no. |
22:28 | <~Noah> | No? |
22:28 | < Ceddo> | Double Spot before that. |
22:28 | < Ceddo> | Needs to have 2 free yellow dice. |
22:28 | < Ceddo> | Wait that makes no sense. |
22:29 | < Ceddo> | It's 23 +2, so 25. You are right. |
22:29 | < Ceddo> | Well I have 36 anyway. |
22:29 | < Ceddo> | Alright. |
22:29 | < Ceddo> | Back to movement. |
22:29 | < Ceddo> | 16 green sounds tarded. |
22:29 | < Ceddo> | No one uses double movement, right? |
22:29 | < Ceddo> | Right..? |
22:29 | <~Noah> | Well, the last frame doesn't really need to roll spot though |
22:30 | < Ceddo> | No, but the 23rd 'frame can roll spot AND have a spot on himself. |
22:30 | < Ceddo> | ... this is never gonna happen. |
22:30 | <~Noah> | Ahh, hmm |
22:30 | < Ceddo> | THere's never gonna be 23 unused spots. |
22:30 | <~Noah> | that's why I like my histobricks |
22:31 | < Ceddo> | Gah, fuckit. |
22:31 | <~Noah> | Cheaper than dice, lol |
22:31 | < Ceddo> | I give away the demo companies. |
22:32 | < Ceddo> | There will be no double movement. |
22:32 | < Ceddo> | D |
22:32 | < Ceddo> | * :D |
22:33 | < Ceddo> | Okay, red dice. I have tons of those, so I am covered. |
22:33 | < Ceddo> | No one is EVER gonna need more than 3. So 12 will do. I have 12. |
22:33 | < Ceddo> | d8, max of 4 per player. But I will keep it at one and make them roll multiple times. |
22:36 | < Ceddo> | Okay, summary! |
22:36 | < Ceddo> | 1) A boat load of blue! |
22:36 | < Ceddo> | 2) A boat load of yellow! |
22:37 | < Ceddo> | 2) 4 d6 Green, 4 d8 green |
22:37 | < Ceddo> | *3) |
22:37 | < Ceddo> | 4) 16 d6 WHite |
22:37 | < Ceddo> | 5) 12 d6 red, 4d8 red |
22:37 | < Ceddo> | Anyone see anything missing? |
22:37 | < Ceddo> | Only problem: Cross activation chains. |
22:38 | < Ceddo> | So, the question is: Do I want extras? |
22:38 | <~Noah> | Probably |
22:38 | <~Noah> | And chains can get long depending on play |
22:42 | < Ceddo> | Mhmm. |
22:42 | < Ceddo> | Two of each, as a pool? |
22:43 | < Ceddo> | As in, two 'frames deep. |
22:43 | < Ceddo> | Blue/Yellow I got anyway. |
22:43 | < Ceddo> | But I added +4 white, +2 green of each, +2 red d8, d6 red I have. |
22:44 | < Ceddo> | Sure, don't talk to me. :( |
22:51 | <~Noah> | Sorry, was investigating something |
22:59 | < Soren> | Dear sorting: you suck ass through a curly straw. |
22:59 | < Soren> | but I can't argue with the results. |
23:04 | <~Noah> | Dear Sorting Hat: You smell funny and I didn't want to be in Hufflepuff. |
23:04 | < Soren> | srsly. |
23:05 | < Ceddo> | No one wants to be in Hufflepuff. |
23:05 | < Ceddo> | Not even the kids in there. |
23:05 | <~Noah> | So, I extended an olive branch to BrickLinkers to join us here, and if there's enough support, to create a new channel and website for them |
23:05 | < Ceddo> | What? |
23:05 | <~Noah> | So I except good behavior if we start getting some guests *wags finger* |
23:05 | < Soren> | hmm. That could be sorta cool, yeah. |
23:05 | | * Soren puts it away and zips up |
23:05 | < Soren> | FINE. |
23:05 | < Soren> | I JUST WANTED THE FRESH AIR, OKAY? IT WAS HOT. |
23:06 | <~Noah> | Ceddo: BrickLink chat appears to be down, probably permanently, so I'm looking to invite more lego fans that way, and try to convert them into mof0s |
23:06 | <~Noah> | Since we talk about lego a lot here anyway |
23:06 | < Ceddo> | It's true. |
23:06 | < Ceddo> | But we also talk about our rap career. |
23:06 | < Soren> | Just getting some Bricklink sellers to realize there's a market for cheap, common parts in bulk out there could be really good. |
23:06 | < Ceddo> | MOTORS AND BUTTS. |
23:07 | <~Noah> | -Your- rap career. |
23:07 | < Ceddo> | Our. |
23:07 | < Ceddo> | It's more than me. |
23:07 | < Ceddo> | I'm just the MC. |
23:07 | <~Noah> | Okay |
23:07 | <~Noah> | -Not my- rap career. |
23:07 | < Ceddo> | There's Soren, who drops the beat. |
23:07 | < Ceddo> | Danni, who DJs. |
23:07 | < Ceddo> | Afny, who does background vocals. |
23:07 | < Ceddo> | KD, who waits in the change room. |
23:08 | < Ceddo> | With fresh water and tiny rolls with yummy cheese and cold cuts. |
23:08 | < Ceddo> | I mean. |
23:08 | < Ceddo> | Right? |
23:09 | < Soren> | I wonder if I can beatbox with my cheeks full of cheese cubes. |
23:09 | < Soren> | That shit's going on YouTube, I can tell. |
23:10 | < Ceddo> | I'm still convinced Bricklinkers can't take us. |

23:13 | | david [NSwebIRC@Nightstar-0f2788c3.bethere.co.uk] has quit [[NS] Quit: Page closed] |
23:13 | < Ceddo> | So ... I built this first Grand Naga. *sighs* And ... and it was shit. |
23:13 | < Ceddo> | It really was. I mean, what was I thinking? |
23:13 | < Ceddo> | Light Bley, orange and dark blue. |
23:13 | < Ceddo> | It was an abomination. |
23:13 | <~Noah> | I made a multitier blind marble labyrinth >_> |
23:13 | < Dukayn> | It looked horrid |
23:14 | < Ceddo> | But I didn't have sandgreen! I felt so ashamed. |
23:14 | <~Noah> | I missed this apparently |
23:14 | < Ceddo> | So ... so I built a new one. I wanted to make it better. Stronger. Larger. |
23:14 | < Ceddo> | Hence, the Elder Naga. |
23:14 | < Ceddo> | It looked so purty. So boss. |
23:14 | < Ceddo> | But it taunted me, every day. |
23:14 | < Ceddo> | I tried to pretend it was good, it was ... whole. |
23:14 | < Ceddo> | But it was not. |
23:14 | < Ceddo> | WHAT NO ONE KNEW. |
23:14 | < Ceddo> | WAS. |
23:15 | <~Noah> | It was solid pink |
23:15 | < Ceddo> | That the 1x1 clip plate never properly stuck to the Travis brick in the center torso. |
23:15 | < Ceddo> | And the 1x1 round plates with open stud always fell off the lampholder. |
23:15 | < Ceddo> | And the 1x1 round bricks, with the tires, always came off the shoulders. |
23:15 | < Ceddo> | It was horrible! |
23:15 | < Ceddo> | I couldn't even SCOOT it. |
23:15 | < Ceddo> | I was so ... disappointed in myself. |
23:16 | <~Noah> | You abuse your parts, and that's news some how? |
23:16 | < Ceddo> | I was about to end it all, today. |
23:16 | < Dukayn> | you glued it didnt you |
23:16 | < Ceddo> | So ... I cheated. |
23:16 | < Ceddo> | And I need to tell right now. |
23:16 | < Ceddo> | I took my green stuff, a two-part modelling epoxy from Games Workshop ... |
23:16 | | * Noah advised everyone to stoplist Cedric |
23:16 | <~Noah> | Green stuff is good stuff |
23:16 | < Ceddo> | ... and I did it. I smeared into EVERY. SINGLE. LOOSE. CREVICE. |
23:17 | < Ceddo> | And let it sit until now. |
23:17 | < Ceddo> | And not, it is whole. |
23:17 | < Ceddo> | It is sturdy. |
23:17 | <~Noah> | I used it when working with my metal necrons and Hordes trollbloods |
23:17 | < Ceddo> | Strong. |
23:17 | < Ceddo> | I ... I won't do it again. |
23:17 | < Ceddo> | But this time, I had to. |
23:17 | < Ceddo> | Is there hope for me? |
23:17 | <~Noah> | Immobile |
23:17 | < Ceddo> | No, it's all just as moveable. |
23:17 | < Ceddo> | I didn't fasten the joints. |
23:18 | < Ceddo> | Just the joint mounts. |
23:18 | <~Noah> | Ceddo: No, for every brick you glued, sacrifice an identical brick |
23:18 | <~Noah> | By mailing them to me |
23:18 | < Ceddo> | Oh, sorry. |
23:18 | < Ceddo> | Mailed them to Dukey already. |

23:25 | < Ceddo> | Could be 13. I dunno. |

23:25 | < randolph> | Do you have VAT ? |
23:25 | < Ceddo> | Or 8? |
23:25 | < Ceddo> | Yeah, 19%. |
23:25 | < randolph> | ok, that's probably it |
23:25 | < KarolineDianne> | Does anyone else ignore the cover damage when they play? Or simplify it to just assigning hit points to cover so that you don't have to pick it apart? |
23:25 | < randolph> | I assign cover damage |
23:25 | < Ceddo> | KD: I rip cover apart. |
23:25 | < randolph> | But I only use sims so far |
23:26 | < randolph> | I haven't built any physical cover |
23:26 | < Ceddo> | Randy: Seen the battle report? :D |
23:26 | < Soren> | I'm sure there are people who DON'T like having the table look like a Lego bomb went off on it. |
23:26 | < Ceddo> | Soren: Who fucking DOESN'T? |
23:26 | < Soren> | But I don't know who they are and I don't want to play with them ;) |
23:26 | < Ceddo> | That's the whole MAGIC of MFT. :D |
23:26 | < Ceddo> | Infuckingdeed. |
23:26 | < KarolineDianne> | Or don't like the thought of losing pieces or having to rebuild their awesome terrain every single game |
23:26 | < Soren> | well, yes. |
23:26 | < Ceddo> | This is not Captain Fluffybear in Cuddle Ponyland. |
23:27 | < Soren> | I make shitty basic terrain out of parts I can afford to lose one or two of. |
23:27 | < Ceddo> | This is Mobile Frame Zero: Rapid Fucking Attack. |
23:27 | < Ceddo> | Shit needs to blow up. |
23:27 | < Dukayn> | Oh dear |
23:27 | < KarolineDianne> | WELL MAYBE I WANT TO CUDDLE CAPTAIN FLUFFYBEAR IN PONYLAND |
23:27 | < Dukayn> | Now I'm imagining high-speed Frame-on-Frame doggy style action |
23:27 | < Ceddo> | WELL HE'S GETTING DRUNK WITH THAT OTHER CAPTAIN RIGHT NOW AND THEN HE'S GONNA SCORE SOME WENCHES, SO, TOUGH. |
23:27 | < Dukayn> | YOU WANT A RAPID FUCKING ATTACK? |
23:27 | < Dukayn> | TAKE IT BITCH |
23:28 | <~Noah> | No! I want wiff and grind! |
23:28 | < randolph> | Ced: Yeah! It looks sweet, esp the masonry stuff |
23:28 | < KarolineDianne> | Someone needs to make a pink chub with teddybear ears and a captain hat, and then make a pony Frame |
23:28 | < Dukayn> | lol |
23:28 | < Dukayn> | well someone made a Chub out of Lego Friends stuff |
23:28 | <~Noah> | +1 pony frame if it's also a unicorn |
23:28 | < randolph> | <KarolineDianne> WELL MAYBE I WANT TO CUDDLE CAPTAIN FLUFFYBEAR IN PONYLAND |
23:28 | < randolph> | Rule 37 |
23:28 | <~Noah> | Ijad in a horse ftw |
23:28 | < randolph> | You know, I made a centaur |
23:29 | < KarolineDianne> | What's rule 37? |
23:29 | < Dukayn> | You mean 34 randy? |
23:29 | < Ceddo> | The best part of cover damage: Scoring 4 cover hits, and ripping 24 brickes off, and THEN littering them across the battlefield. |
23:29 | < Ceddo> | Rule 37: Enjoy the little things. |
23:29 | < randolph> | I may mean 34. |
23:29 | < randolph> | I dunno, it's the one about everything has a erofic |
23:29 | < Ceddo> | Rule 34: There is porn of it, no exceptions. |
23:29 | < Dukayn> | 34 |
23:29 | < randolph> | Ok thanks |
23:29 | < randolph> | I don't whip it out that often <_< |
23:29 | < Ceddo> | I did not look that up. |
23:29 | < Ceddo> | I feel dirty. |
23:29 | < KarolineDianne> | Why would I want fluffy bear robot porn why |
23:29 | < Ceddo> | That's not the question. |
23:29 | < Dukayn> | Rule 37 is what gets Ceddo laid |
23:29 | < randolph> | Maybe you just want to cuddle! |
23:29 | < Dukayn> | ;) |
23:30 | < Ceddo> | OH SNAP. |
23:30 | < KarolineDianne> | Cuddles are where it's at. |
23:30 | < Dukayn> | All women want to do is cuddle |
23:30 | < KarolineDianne> | Everything else is meh |
23:30 | < Ceddo> | Dukayn: At least your mom isn't screaming your NEIGHBOR'S name anymore. |
23:30 | < randolph> | -_- |
23:30 | < Dukayn> | Dude, my mum's almost 60 |
23:31 | < randolph> | http://www.mobileframehangar.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=1205#p5969 |
23:31 | < Ceddo> | *rubs chin* So? Good old German saying: On old frigattes, you learn how to sail. |
23:31 | < randolph> | ^ pretty trivial to convert to actual robohorse |
23:31 | < Dukayn> | LOL |
23:31 | < Ceddo> | randolph: Yeah, you did good on that one. |
23:31 | | Dukayn is now known as Dukayn[AFK] |
23:31 | < Ceddo> | Oh, oh, randy. |
23:31 | < randolph> | I think there are teddybear ears in one of the sets |
23:31 | < Dukayn[AFK]> | brb |
23:31 | < Ceddo> | I wish to expres my love. |
23:31 | < randolph> | Slap them on a chub, done |
23:31 | < Ceddo> | My undying love. |
23:31 | < randolph> | ... For what |
23:32 | < Ceddo> | For Mr. Chubs. |
23:32 | < randolph> | Hehe |
23:32 | < Ceddo> | He is, by far and wide, the BEST character of the entire board. |
23:32 | < randolph> | Mr. Chibs is like, my most popular creation, and he's the smallest one |
23:32 | < Ceddo> | I feel with him ALL the time. |
23:32 | < KarolineDianne> | Poor, poor Mr. Chibs |
23:32 | < Ceddo> | And everytime you post something new, I SCROLL DOWN FIRST. |
23:32 | < KarolineDianne> | I'd give him snuggles. I'm sure that's what he needs. |
23:32 | < Ceddo> | Because, Mr. Chibs is where it's at. |
23:33 | < randolph> | (17 pieces, just counted) |
23:33 | < Ceddo> | You had me at: "Oh no, Mr. Chibs, what a pickle you are in!" |
23:33 | < randolph> | (counting his loafers) |
23:33 | < randolph> | hehe |
23:33 | < Ceddo> | Ever since, madly in love. |
23:33 | < KarolineDianne> | Ohgod |
23:33 | < randolph> | Still gotta give mad props to Soren though, his awesome Chubs profile comes through - if Chub didn't exist, Mr. Chibs wouldn't have anywhere near the traction |
23:33 | < Soren> | heh, thanks. |
23:33 | < KarolineDianne> | I'm imagining Mr. Chibs with Siegmeyer's voice now... |
23:34 | < Ceddo> | Well, that's a given. |
23:34 | < Ceddo> | But Soren's pretty full of himself. |
23:34 | < Ceddo> | He doesn't need more praise. |
23:34 | < Ceddo> | :D |
23:35 | < randolph> | Hey, as far as I'm concerned, credit given is for accomplishment, ego doesn't enter into the equation |
23:35 | < randolph> | See: Last scene of Iron Man 2~ |
23:35 | < KarolineDianne> | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mSjbZbhCvCQ <- Mr. Chibs |
23:35 | < randolph> | KD: What/Who is Siegmeyer? |
23:35 | < KarolineDianne> | Always in a pickle |
23:36 | < KarolineDianne> | He was a goofy fat knight in Dark Souls who would -always- end up in a pickle. |
23:36 | < randolph> | haha |
23:37 | < Ceddo> | "Still closed ... still closed ... mhmm." |
23:37 | < Ceddo> | Genius. |
23:37 | < KarolineDianne> | He also had a habit of falling asleep standing in the most... Odd places |
23:37 | < randolph> | Except when he's performing in Brickstreet Boyz, I envision Mr. Chibs as never talking, just being very expressive with his expressions |
23:37 | < randolph> | And even while performing, I figure he lip-synchs |
23:39 | < Ceddo> | He is more of a background dancer crossbred with Milli Vanilli. |
23:39 | < Ceddo> | Can we TALK about those guys for a second? |
23:39 | < Ceddo> | Milli Vanilli? |
23:39 | < KarolineDianne> | Milli Vanilli? |
23:40 | < Ceddo> | Was the whole name a joke? |
23:40 | < Ceddo> | Milk and Vanilla are certainly NOT things I'd associate with these guys. |
23:41 | | afny [kevinvankir@Nightstar-42c41d95.res.rr.com] has joined #mf0 |
23:41 | < randolph> | Let's check Wikipedia! |
23:41 | < KarolineDianne> | I've never heard of these people |
23:42 | < Dukayn[AFK]> | You kids |
23:42 | | Dukayn[AFK] is now known as Dukayn |
23:43 | < randolph> | I can't seem to find an explanation for the name |
23:44 | < Ceddo> | What? |
23:44 | < Ceddo> | You never heard of Milli Vanilli? |
23:45 | < Ceddo> | One of the most successful German music exports of the 90ies! |
23:45 | < Ceddo> | ... which is probably ahy. |
23:45 | < Ceddo> | *why |
23:45 | < Ceddo> | Also, hilarious lip syncers. |
23:45 | < Dukayn> | they were German? |
23:45 | < Ceddo> | Couldn't sing a damn line. |
23:45 | < Dukayn> | I did not know that |
23:45 | < Ceddo> | Just like Boney M. |
23:45 | < Dukayn> | WAT |
23:46 | < Dukayn> | Wait, Boney M can't sing, or is German? |
23:46 | < Dukayn> | or both? |
23:46 | < Ceddo> | Your face when you learn that the lead singer of Boney M. was actually this guy: http://i2.bunte.de/img/HBG5ueFo.jpg |
23:46 | < Ceddo> | And the guy on stage was a dupe. |
23:47 | < Ceddo> | Your face when you learn that the female voice was the producer's assistant. |
23:47 | < Ceddo> | Your face when you learn that the guy who actually sang was also the guy behind Milli Vanilli. |
23:48 | < Ceddo> | So yeah. All of that was pret-ty German. German engineering at the least. |
23:48 | < Ceddo> | But Boney M. was also sung by the Producer who just needed a face for the stage. :D |
23:49 | < Dukayn> | Really, there's nothing in their Wiki page about that |
23:49 | < Dukayn> | I'd suspect they'd have been found out by now. |
23:49 | | Whitewolf [a@Nightstar-735e319f.superkabel.de] has quit [Client exited] |
23:50 | < Ceddo> | Well, I'd say, read the German wiki pages, but ... |
23:52 | < Dukayn> | lol |
23:52 | < Dukayn> | Google Translate would fix that |
23:55 | <~Noah> | YO MOMMA |
23:57 | < Dukayn> | I... don't see how that fits here. |
23:57 | < Dukayn> | And now I've opened the door......... |
23:57 | <~Noah> | YO FACE IS MADE OF BUBBLE TAPE |
23:59 | <~Noah> | Waka waka waka *dies and falls over* |
23:59 | < Dukayn> | Oh sorry was that funny? :P |
