| 03:07 | <@randolph> | Hey Noah |
| 03:07 | <~maoranma> | Yo |
| 03:10 | | Dukayn [dcfd2c3c@Nightstar-4fab16c5.mibbit.com] has joined #mf0 |
| 03:11 | <@randolph> | Heya Dukayn |
| 03:11 | < Dukayn> | heya |
| 03:11 | <@randolph> | What's up? |
| 03:14 | < Dukayn> | Not much |
| 03:14 | < Dukayn> | Just trying to work out a custom head for my single pirate chub |
| 03:15 | <@randolph> | I gotcha covered |
| 03:19 | <@randolph> | sec, uploading |
| 03:22 | <@randolph> | http://www.flickr.com/photos/wangtech/7405298100/ |
| 03:23 | <~maoranma> | The Dread Pirate Wesley |
| 03:25 | < Dukayn> | That... I... gimme a sec. That may be really awesome :P |
| 03:26 | <@randolph> | I improved on it a bit |
| 03:26 | < Dukayn> | lol already |
| 03:27 | <@randolph> | Well I just came up with it, gimme a break :p |
| 03:27 | <@randolph> | Ok, so make it 3 plates high (one brick) instead of 2 |
| 03:28 | <@randolph> | This lets you slide a headlight brick sideways into the eyepatch socket |
| 03:28 | < Dukayn> | instead of the bracket? |
| 03:29 | <@randolph> | use the bracket too |
| 03:29 | <@randolph> | bracket is the patch |
| 03:29 | <~maoranma> | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Aa_i81x-gbI&feature=g-vrec - Chubs gotta eat |
| 03:29 | <@randolph> | the headlight sideways is just to give it something substantial |
| 03:29 | <@randolph> | I guess it could just BE the headlight, testing sec |
| 03:30 | <@randolph> | that looks pretty good, too |
| 03:30 | <@randolph> | I prefer the bracket "patch" but the headlight looks good |
| 03:30 | < Dukayn> | so what's in back of that? |
| 03:30 | < Dukayn> | 1x2 brick? |
| 03:30 | <@randolph> | yeah |
| 03:30 | <@randolph> | I used a profile brick for "hair" |
| 03:31 | <@randolph> | Could also use two 1x1 round black bricks for dreads maybe?' |
| 03:31 | < Dukayn> | hehe |
| 03:31 | < Dukayn> | I'm not seeing how you get a headlight in there. |
| 03:32 | <~maoranma> | voodoo |
| 03:32 | <~maoranma> | The voodoes that Wangdoes |
| 03:33 | <@randolph> | ok so instead of sideways, just upright |
| 03:33 | <@randolph> | You know what, pic, sec |
| 03:34 | <~maoranma> | The answer is always is a jpeg store on a server hundreds of miles away |
| 03:34 | <~maoranma> | Penny Arcade? Famous for uploading jpegs. Jerry says as much himself |
| 03:36 | < Dukayn> | Yeah he's quite adamant about that. |
| 03:40 | <@randolph> | http://www.flickr.com/photos/wangtech/7405385262/ |
| 03:41 | < Dukayn> | Hmm |
| 03:43 | <@randolph> | If you prefer the bracket, just rotate the headlight brick 90 degrees to the left |
| 03:43 | <@randolph> | (or right) |
| 03:44 | <@randolph> | It doesn't attach, it just clamps between the bracket and the 2x2 roundplate |
| 03:45 | < Dukayn> | can't mock that in LDD |
| 03:45 | < Dukayn> | as the bracket clashes with the headlight |
| 03:45 | <@randolph> | Hm |
| 03:46 | <@randolph> | Leave out the headlight in LDD then |
| 03:46 | <@randolph> | stuff it in in MLCAD |
| 03:46 | < Dukayn> | heh |
| 03:46 | <@randolph> | It just slides right in |
| 03:48 | < Dukayn> | Not sure if I'll keep it, but it's a nice idea :) |
| 03:48 | < Dukayn> | I've put it aside as a potential. |
| 03:49 | <@randolph> | hehe |
| 03:50 | < Dukayn> | My only thought is it's a bit clunky |
| 03:50 | <@randolph> | Hm |
| 03:51 | < Dukayn> | Also, doesn't have to be a mod of a standard Chub head. |
| 03:51 | < Dukayn> | Just trying to find something unique for this guy. |
| 03:51 | <@randolph> | Ah, gotcha |
| 03:52 | <@randolph> | Consider slope bricks to create a tricorn outline then, maybe |
| 03:52 | < Dukayn> | hehe |
| 03:57 | <@randolph> | Is the hangar down? |
| 03:59 | < Dukayn> | is for me |
| 04:20 | < Dukayn> | randolph: http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/ChubHead1.png or http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/ChubHead2.png ? |
| 04:21 | < Dukayn> | or alternatively http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/ChubHead3.png and http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/ChubHead4.png :P |
| 04:27 | <@randolph> | hehe nice |
| 04:29 | <@randolph> | I like 1 and 3 |
| 04:31 | < Dukayn> | Yeah I was thinking probably 3 if I go with it |
| 04:31 | < Dukayn> | Just had another idea I'm trying out, not sure if it'll work |
| 04:36 | <~maoranma> | I like #4 |
| 04:48 | < Dukayn> | Arrr, 'e be wearin' a pirate hat! http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/ChubHead5.png |
| 04:49 | <~maoranma> | shiver me etcs |
| 04:49 | <@McMartin> | Arrrrr |
| 04:49 | <@McMartin> | Shiver me bricks |
| 04:56 | | mode/#mf0 [+vvv Ced|ChasingMorpheus Dukayn mf0bot_] by maoranma |
| 05:01 | <+Dukayn> | hmm is is better 1p higher? http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/ChubHead6.png |
| 05:01 | <~maoranma> | Yes |
| 05:02 | <+Dukayn> | I agree |
| 05:02 | <+Dukayn> | previously he had a very lazy eye patch :P |
| 05:02 | <@randolph> | augh, daily bricklink maintenance while I was browsing |
| 05:02 | <+Dukayn> | haha bugger |
| 05:02 | <~maoranma> | Yea, you're stuck with us for the next 8 minutes |
| 05:02 | <+Dukayn> | Check it randy, I gave him a hat ^^^^^ |
| 05:03 | <@randolph> | sweet |
| 05:03 | <@randolph> | Hm, maybe consider using wingplates, to get a brim? |
| 05:03 | <+Dukayn> | Hmm |
| 05:04 | <+Dukayn> | instead of the L plates? |
| 05:04 | <~maoranma> | Yea |
| 05:04 | <@randolph> | Or just in the front row |
| 05:04 | <@randolph> | dunno about the back |
| 05:04 | <@randolph> | that 1x1 cone looks pretty close |
| 05:05 | <@randolph> | Nvm, no wingplates |
| 05:05 | <@randolph> | They don't clip tight |
| 05:05 | <~maoranma> | lame |
| 05:06 | <@randolph> | It's the fault of the 2x2 round |
| 05:06 | <@randolph> | If I use a 2x2 square, it works |
| 05:06 | <@randolph> | Dukayn: consider flipping the entire head over to get more to work with |
| 05:07 | <@randolph> | (if the attachments aren't right) |
| 05:07 | <+Dukayn> | http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/ChubHead7.png |
| 05:08 | <@randolph> | Heh, that's kinda cool |
| 05:08 | <@randolph> | For the back of the head, did you know there's a hemicircle brick? |
| 05:08 | <~maoranma> | I like it. I wonder if a 1x1 round plate should go on the top |
| 05:09 | <~maoranma> | So it's not so flat? |
| 05:09 | <@randolph> | boatstud? |
| 05:09 | <@randolph> | instead |
| 05:09 | <~maoranma> | Maybe |
| 05:09 | <@randolph> | 2x2 round + boatstud |
| 05:09 | <+Dukayn> | nah it looks crud |
| 05:09 | <+Dukayn> | too smooth :P |
| 05:09 | <~maoranma> | Yea |
| 05:09 | <@randolph> | heh |
| 05:09 | <@randolph> | feather~ |
| 05:09 | <~maoranma> | Try just a plain 1x1 plate in that hole |
| 05:09 | <~maoranma> | PARROT |
| 05:10 | <~maoranma> | He needs a mech-drone parrot! |
| 05:10 | <@randolph> | P.O.L.Y. |
| 05:11 | <~maoranma> | Just one L? |
| 05:12 | <@randolph> | It's an acronym |
| 05:16 | <+Dukayn> | http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/ChubHead8.png |
| 05:16 | <+Dukayn> | it's on a jaunty angle! |
| 05:17 | <@randolph> | not a fan of the jumper:p |
| 05:18 | | * Dukayn shrugs |
| 05:18 | <+Dukayn> | It's an experiment |
| 05:19 | <+Dukayn> | I didn't like the 1x1 round plate in the top. |
| 05:19 | <~maoranma> | We're still going to heavily criticize it |
| 05:19 | <+Dukayn> | Didn't say you shouldn't |
| 05:20 | <~maoranma> | Yes you did |
| 05:20 | <~maoranma> | <Dukayn> I'm sensitive guys, please be gentle about my pirate chub head |
| 05:20 | <~maoranma> | ^ See? |
| 05:20 | <+Dukayn> | Uh huh |
| 05:20 | <@randolph> | Noah, I think I see some pixels there |
| 05:21 | <@randolph> | You gotta work on your photoshop skillz |
| 05:21 | <~maoranma> | Drat |
| 05:21 | <+Dukayn> | Definitely some pixels. They spell out "<Noah> I'm a dick" ;) |
| 05:21 | <~maoranma> | Except that's true |
| 05:22 | <~maoranma> | And you spelled my name wrong, it's DudeMcAwesome |

| 05:44 | | afny [kevinvankir@Nightstar-42c41d95.res.rr.com] has joined #mf0 |
| 05:46 | < afny> | Hm |
| 05:47 | < afny> | it looks like you helped Ced with the GN-X...I was going to, but I ended up just falling asleep before he got home from work. |
| 05:51 | <@randolph> | hey |
| 05:51 | <@randolph> | He figured it out from backscroll |
| 05:52 | < afny> | I never doubted him |
| 05:54 | <@randolph> | I messed around a little with wingplates |
| 05:55 | < afny> | I SORT of started on a "flight mode" |
| 05:55 | <@randolph> | Not looking terribly awesome - I think I'll need to modify the shoulders to get the right look |
| 05:55 | < afny> | I think the torso, or more specifically the leg attachment has to change if it really is going to look good in an alternate mode |
| 05:56 | < afny> | here, uh, wingplate reference |
| 05:56 | < afny> | http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=84716 |
| 05:56 | < afny> | hm, maybe his wingplate one isn't here |
| 05:56 | <@randolph> | so... |
| 05:57 | <@randolph> | The shoulders rotate perpendicular to the plane of the torso |
| 05:57 | <@randolph> | if you're looking head-on and the center of the chest is 0,0,0 |
| 05:57 | <@randolph> | The shoulder joints describe arcs on the XY plane |
| 05:58 | < afny> | this is the one I was thinking of: it transforms and uses a very similar base |
| 05:58 | < afny> | http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=98037 |
| 05:58 | <@randolph> | assuming "traditional" wing positioning, that means without modifying the shoulder joint, you're looking at a flight-mode position where the arms roughly stick out -X and +X |
| 05:59 | < afny> | zizy's choice was clearly more flexible shoulders |
| 05:59 | <@randolph> | actually |
| 05:59 | <@randolph> | If you look at it, it has no "arms" |
| 06:00 | < afny> | yeah, the illusion of arms is created by a leg attachment |
| 06:00 | < afny> | but the headlights w/ orange round could just as easily be a small arm |
| 06:00 | <@randolph> | So the shoulder pods are entirely decorative in mech mode, and just serve as concealing skirts in flight mode |
| 06:00 | <@randolph> | Sure |
| 06:01 | < afny> | transformed, if they were plate arms |
| 06:01 | <@randolph> | the rest of it is just the legs tucking up |
| 06:01 | < afny> | er, hingeplate arms* |
| 06:01 | < afny> | you'd just have to make sure you could fold them up into a 2x2 and make them a diamond |
| 06:01 | <@randolph> | hm |
| 06:01 | <@randolph> | I feel like that's cheating |
| 06:02 | <@randolph> | I'd rather have the arms be the wings or part of the fuselage |
| 06:02 | <@randolph> | arms that fold away/retract are like... Are we transforming, or are we a turtle? |
| 06:02 | < afny> | well this thing doesn't really have centralized wings |
| 06:02 | <@randolph> | yeah |
| 06:02 | < afny> | but they would still be visible in the transformed mode, they just wouldn't be an integral part |
| 06:02 | <@randolph> | It's cool, don't get me wrong |
| 06:03 | <@randolph> | ... ooh |
| 06:03 | <+Ced|ChasingMorpheus> | Morning folks. |
| 06:03 | <@randolph> | Hey ced |
| 06:03 | | Ced|ChasingMorpheus is now known as Ced |
| 06:03 | < afny> | o/ |
| 06:03 | | Ced is now known as Ceddobear |
| 06:04 | <@randolph> | I was just thinking, if I thicken the arm, I can have the "hand" fold away |
| 06:04 | <@randolph> | (on my romulus) |
| 06:06 | < afny> | I either need to take apart a bunch of stuff or get more bricks so I can just start trying things |
| 06:07 | < afny> | it's so much faster than just postulating |
| 06:07 | <@randolph> | Well, I just grabbed it and started modding |
| 06:07 | <@randolph> | Bilateral symmetry, so one limb at a time |
| 06:07 | <@randolph> | if it sucks, revert |
| 06:07 | < afny> | yeah, I think I'll just do that to my grey one |
| 06:07 | < afny> | gonna shower first |
| 06:07 | | afny is now known as afny|away |
| 06:08 | <+Dukayn> | Hy Cede |
| 06:08 | <+Dukayn> | um |
| 06:09 | <+Dukayn> | Hey Ced, even. |
| 06:09 | <+Ceddobear> | Hey sexybuns. |
| 06:13 | <+Dukayn> | http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/ChubHead9.png << PIRATE CHUB |
| 06:13 | <@randolph> | yarr |
| 06:13 | <@randolph> | afk |
| 06:23 | <+Dukayn> | Ceddobear: still no package |
| 06:26 | <~maoranma> | Fucking 'roos |
| 06:26 | <@randolph> | afny, I've got a really sexy transforming hand design |
| 06:27 | <@randolph> | taking a shot |
| 06:28 | <+Ceddobear> | Dukayn: Dafuq. |
| 06:28 | <+Ceddobear> | Srsly. |
| 06:28 | <+Dukayn> | I know |
| 06:28 | | afny|away is now known as afny |
| 06:28 | <+Dukayn> | How long has it been now? |
| 06:28 | <+Dukayn> | 3 weeks? |
| 06:28 | <+Ceddobear> | At least umpteen years. |
| 06:28 | < afny> | Is this guy piloting it: http://dailypop.files.wordpress.com/2010/12/doctor-who_pirateplanet.jpg |
| 06:28 | <~maoranma> | Dukayn: you probably lost it to a drug dog. Ced uses weed as packing filler |
| 06:29 | <+Ceddobear> | That IS true. |
| 06:29 | <+Dukayn> | Well in that case the people at customs are probably very high and playing with my Lego by now :P |
| 06:29 | <~maoranma> | Only the finest bud for his bud |
| 06:29 | <+Ceddobear> | Blueberry Ksuh! |
| 06:30 | <~maoranma> | Anyway, g'night, got to deal with kids in the morning and school in the evening |
| 06:31 | <+Dukayn> | Oh how fun |
| 06:31 | <+Dukayn> | night mate |
| 06:34 | <+Dukayn> | You know I think I'm gonna ditch the pirate head. |
| 06:34 | <+Dukayn> | It's fun and all but really it wouldn't /actually/ be found on a giant fighty robot. |
| 06:35 | <@randolph> | Ok, check it |
| 06:35 | <@randolph> | http://www.flickr.com/photos/wangtech/7406090498/ |
| 06:35 | <@randolph> | @ afny |
| 06:36 | < afny> | nice |
| 06:36 | < afny> | is that just a 5way in there? |
| 06:36 | <@randolph> | yeah |
| 06:38 | <@randolph> | works with grille tiles too |
| 06:38 | < afny> | it'd be good if you could work it into a thruster system |
| 06:38 | <@randolph> | Yeah |
| 06:39 | <@randolph> | Hell, works with any 1x2 that will rotate |
| 06:39 | <@randolph> | So I'm thinking you have fold up wings entirely on the shoulder |
| 06:40 | <@randolph> | And then this arm underneath that swivels back into a thruster |
| 06:46 | <+Ceddobear> | Oh, lemme take shots of my OG before I head to work. |
| 06:47 | <@randolph> | woo |

| 06:52 | <+Dukayn> | nice dude |
| 06:52 | <@randolph> | nice |
| 06:52 | <@randolph> | Gotta get me some o' that hose |
| 06:53 | < afny> | I've got so many of those |
| 06:53 | < afny> | but they're all so old |
| 06:53 | < afny> | the rubber is kind of crusty |
| 06:54 | <@randolph> | ok afny |
| 06:54 | <@randolph> | sexy, SEXY transforming wing arm |
| 06:54 | <@randolph> | wing turns into a shield |

| 06:56 | <@Ced|OnAMission> | ABOUT THAT OG. |
| 06:56 | <@Ced|OnAMission> | WAS BUILDING IT FROM THE LOGS OF KEVIN AND RANDY. |
| 06:56 | <@Ced|OnAMission> | UGH. |
| 06:57 | <@Ced|OnAMission> | You guys have no concept of formalized language. |
| 06:57 | < afny> | we weren't writing a manual |
| 06:57 | <@Ced|OnAMission> | So, with that jab, I'mma bounce like flubber in a tamproline testing facility. |
| 06:57 | < afny> | that's DANGEROUS |
| 06:57 | <@Ced|OnAMission> | No. |
| 06:57 | <@Ced|OnAMission> | Lemme show you what is. |

| 07:02 | <@randolph> | http://www.flickr.com/photos/wangtech/7406178120/in/photostream |
| 07:02 | <@randolph> | ^ k, check it |
| 07:04 | < afny> | looks good |
| 07:04 | < afny> | how do you get from 3 to 4 |
| 07:05 | <@randolph> | ok, so it finishes hinging shut right? |
| 07:05 | < afny> | yeah |
| 07:05 | <@randolph> | just under the wing is a 1x2 plate that sitting peg-to-hole into the travis brick under it |
| 07:05 | <@randolph> | the whole wing just swivels up |
| 07:05 | <@randolph> | You can see the 1x2 d bley in shot 4 |
| 07:06 | < afny> | ah okay |
| 07:06 | <@randolph> | it's right under the tan 1x4 hinge under the leading edge of the wing |
| 07:06 | <@randolph> | THIS IS TOTALLY POSSIBLE |

| 07:10 | <@randolph> | this would be even better if I could attach the wing separately from the arm |

| 07:45 | <@randolph> | Hey ced |
| 07:47 | <@randolph> | bleh |
| 07:47 | <@randolph> | I've got transforming wingarms, and they work, and look cool, they just don't look cool _on the Romulus_ |
| 07:47 | <@randolph> | I think I'll have to make a dedicated frame for these proportions |
| 07:48 | < afny> | that's the problem with building in intricate transformations into multiple parts |
| 07:48 | < afny> | it radically alters the outline |
| 07:48 | <@randolph> | It's not the outline I'm concerned about so much as the OG has too broad a chest for these dinky wings |
| 07:48 | < afny> | every microscale lego mech I've seen that transforms does so with one or two movements, and has a lot of bits that are dual purpose |
| 07:49 | <@randolph> | and it's ALREADY pretty huge as a shield, so bigger isn't going to cut it |
| 07:50 | <@randolph> | Well, I'll show the final form before I pack it up and move on |
| 07:55 | <@Ced23Ric> | Yo, randy. |
| 07:55 | <@Ced23Ric> | If your schedule allows for it, grab that RP and throw me a slice of meat. |
| 07:56 | <@Ced23Ric> | Trilly wants to jump again, and I ain't ready yet. |
| 07:56 | <@Ced23Ric> | Also, Kevin. |
| 07:56 | <@Ced23Ric> | Grab Otami's character. Or, better, ask whether you may. |

| 07:57 | <@Ced23Ric> | Dafuq. |
| 07:57 | <@Ced23Ric> | Did he just admit that his faction/company is retarded? |
| 07:58 | <@randolph> | He's saying "I've never met an Ijad I didn't like [to sell things to]." |
| 08:00 | <@Ced23Ric> | Which still makes no sense. |
| 08:01 | <+Dukayn> | How so? His company likes to sell stuff to Ijad. They meet an Ijad, they try to sell him stuff. How does that not make sense? |
| 08:01 | <@Ced23Ric> | In context. |
| 08:02 | <@Ced23Ric> | Trilly calls them "brain parasite". |
| 08:02 | <@Ced23Ric> | I call them "embraced ally". |
| 08:02 | <@Ced23Ric> | He calls them ..."clients"? |
| 08:02 | <@Ced23Ric> | For what? |
| 08:02 | <@Ced23Ric> | And what would a symbiont buy? |
| 08:02 | <@Ced23Ric> | His host needs something. The symbionte less so. |
| 08:03 | <@Ced23Ric> | But it might just elude hm from a linguistic point. |
| 08:03 | <+Dukayn> | You're nitpicking |
| 08:03 | <@Ced23Ric> | And I might be overly negative towards him. |
| 08:03 | <+Dukayn> | He's (probably) talking about the conjoined personage |
| 08:03 | <@Ced23Ric> | Yeah, yeah I am. |
| 08:03 | <+Dukayn> | Not the symbiote specifically |
| 08:03 | <@Ced23Ric> | But that's the term in question. |
| 08:04 | <@Ced23Ric> | Meh. |
| 08:04 | <@Ced23Ric> | Really cannot stand the kid. |
| 08:04 | <@Ced23Ric> | Attention whores rub me in a really bad way. |
| 08:05 | <+Dukayn> | I think it's a misunderstanding. You and Trilly are talking about what you call the symbiote. He's talking about what "his company" refers to the Ijad they encounter. Which would never be a non-joined symbiote, I would imagine. In his eyes it makes perfect sense, but in context to the original discussion it doesn't. |
| 08:05 | <@Ced23Ric> | Well, yeah. |
| 08:05 | <@Ced23Ric> | He is no native speaker. |
| 08:06 | < afny> | Ced just hates that guy |
| 08:06 | < afny> | and will take any opportunity to tear him apart |
| 08:06 | <@Ced23Ric> | Such filigree details elude him. |
| 08:06 | <@Ced23Ric> | Well, and that. |
| 08:06 | <@Ced23Ric> | I really don't like 12 year-olds in my gaming. Sorry. |
| 08:06 | <@Ced23Ric> | SUE ME. BURN ME. TORTURE ME. |
| 08:06 | < afny> | 12 year olds grow up, dude |
| 08:06 | <@Ced23Ric> | BUT I WILL NEVER YIELD. |
| 08:06 | <@Ced23Ric> | Oh, I know. |
| 08:06 | < afny> | I think it's unfair to judge |
| 08:06 | < afny> | like |
| 08:06 | < afny> | okay |
| 08:06 | < afny> | THAT GUY |
| 08:06 | < afny> | no |
| 08:07 | < afny> | he probably is a dick |
| 08:07 | < afny> | and wouldn't be cool |
| 08:07 | < afny> | but ageism isn't cool |
| 08:07 | < afny> | I think people are more likely to be annoying/douches when they're young, but it isn't a hard and fast rule |
| 08:07 | <+Dukayn> | He's 19... |
| 08:07 | < afny> | Heh |
| 08:07 | < afny> | well okay, let's not use that guy as an example. |
| 08:08 | <@Ced23Ric> | Kev: I'm just using the label. |
| 08:08 | <@Ced23Ric> | I know 15 year olds that are hella cool. |
| 08:08 | <@randolph> | We need to be more inclusive |
| 08:08 | < afny> | Eh, It's still ageism |
| 08:08 | <@Ced23Ric> | And I know 30 year olds that are massive idiots. |
| 08:08 | <+Dukayn> | Oh, you mean /internet/ 12 year olds |
| 08:08 | <@Ced23Ric> | YES. |
| 08:08 | <@Ced23Ric> | THOSE. |
| 08:08 | < afny> | that's like saying hey, I know some gay people that are cool; they're not like those faggots. |
| 08:08 | <+Dukayn> | as in, 20+ year olds who like to play Halo. |
| 08:08 | <+Dukayn> | and teabag |
| 08:08 | <+Dukayn> | and are generally fuckwads |
| 08:08 | <@Ced23Ric> | "I FUCKED YOUR MOM!" - "Dude, you didn't even have your first wet dream yet." |
| 08:08 | < afny> | if you try to turn "12 year old" into a label, it damages ALL twelve year olds |
| 08:08 | < afny> | not just spoiled dickwads. |
| 08:09 | <@Ced23Ric> | I want to be inclusive. |
| 08:09 | < afny> | Well now that we know that guy isn't 12 |
| 08:09 | < afny> | just tear into him |
| 08:09 | <@Ced23Ric> | Inclusive to an elite few. |
| 08:09 | < afny> | just really let lose. |
| 08:09 | <+Dukayn> | Well he /did/ welcome him in the Welcome thread :P |
| 08:09 | < afny> | +o |
| 08:09 | <+Dukayn> | So that's inclusive. |
| 08:09 | <@Ced23Ric> | I also replied to his inane rules proposals. |
| 08:09 | <@Ced23Ric> | Which are house rule material. |
| 08:09 | <+Dukayn> | LOL ya I saw those |
| 08:09 | < afny> | You even built him a sword |
| 08:09 | <@Ced23Ric> | If you don't want me to play, that is. |
| 08:09 | <@Ced23Ric> | I DID build him a sword. |
| 08:09 | <@Ced23Ric> | IT WAS TOO SMALL. |
| 08:09 | <+Dukayn> | ZOMG WE NEED MOAR GUNZ |
| 08:10 | <@Ced23Ric> | WHAT THE DICK. |
| 08:10 | <+Dukayn> | LOL, the sword. |
| 08:10 | <+Dukayn> | which is what, twice as big as most MFZ swords we've seen so far. |
| 08:10 | <@Ced23Ric> | That was fucking massive and a half. |
| 08:10 | <@Ced23Ric> | "I need somethign way bigger." |
| 08:10 | <@Ced23Ric> | -_ |
| 08:10 | <+Dukayn> | I saw the "sword tutorial" and thought "dafuq, how hard is 'lightsaber handle, clip tile, 1x4 tile'?" |
| 08:12 | <@randolph> | Ok, here you go guys |
| 08:12 | <@randolph> | http://www.flickr.com/photos/wangtech/7406394886/in/photostream |
| 08:13 | <@randolph> | Articulation and transformation |
| 08:13 | <@randolph> | And it's red |
| 08:14 | <@Ced23Ric> | That's pretty sweet. |
| 08:14 | <@Ced23Ric> | OH. |
| 08:14 | <@randolph> | I think it could look good on something really thin |
| 08:14 | <@Ced23Ric> | JUST TO LET YOU KNOW. |
| 08:14 | <@randolph> | like 1-3 bricks wide, tops |
| 08:14 | <@Ced23Ric> | I decided I need a 7th company. |
| 08:14 | <@randolph> | aieee really? |
| 08:14 | | * Dukayn snickers |
| 08:14 | <+Dukayn> | I AM JACK'S COMPLETE LACK OF SURPRISE |
| 08:14 | < afny> | ^ |
| 08:15 | <+Dukayn> | brb I need to sort dinner out before I murder some motherfuckers. |
| 08:15 | | Dukayn is now known as Dukayn[AFK] |
| 08:16 | <@Ced23Ric> | :( |
| 08:16 | <@Ced23Ric> | IT'S AN HTH COMPANY. |
| 08:16 | <@randolph> | sweet |
| 08:16 | <@randolph> | oh |
| 08:16 | <@Ced23Ric> | IT'S RED. |
| 08:16 | <@randolph> | so I figured out how I can make melee weapons and still not use HtH |
| 08:16 | <@Ced23Ric> | Ah? |
| 08:16 | <@randolph> | Attach chains and rockets to everything |
| 08:16 | <@Ced23Ric> | WTF. |
| 08:17 | <@randolph> | At frame size, a nine-section-steel-whip is direct fire~ |
| 08:17 | <@Ced23Ric> | And insane. |
| 08:17 | <@randolph> | So's HtH -_ |
| 08:17 | <@randolph> | -__ |
| 08:17 | <@randolph> | er |
| 08:18 | <@randolph> | Apparently, so insane, I destroyed the other eye |
| 08:18 | <@randolph> | -____- |
| 08:18 | <@randolph> | there we go |
| 08:19 | <@randolph> | Haha, you know what I'm going to do once I get those flying stands? |
| 08:19 | < afny> | Ced |
| 08:19 | < afny> | did you have a stroke |
| 08:19 | <@Ced23Ric> | Why? |
| 08:19 | < afny> | A hand to hand company? |
| 08:19 | <@randolph> | I'm going to build a frame with floating, permanently detached limbs |
| 08:19 | <@Ced23Ric> | Yeah. |
| 08:19 | < afny> | how did u do this |
| 08:19 | <@Ced23Ric> | Whatchu mean? |
| 08:19 | < afny> | What made you decide you needed an hth company? |
| 08:19 | <@randolph> | talking to me or afny? |
| 08:20 | < afny> | also, @randolph |
| 08:20 | < afny> | the mech I based my red orbital guard frame on has those |
| 08:20 | < afny> | at least at point point |
| 08:20 | < afny> | that game (ZoE) has a lot of floating things |
| 08:21 | < afny> | and things that CRACKLE WITH ENERGY |
| 08:21 | <@randolph> | nice |
| 08:21 | < afny> | but at one point, the Neith gets badly damaged, but it continues to fight using the broken shards of its arms |
| 08:21 | < afny> | as floating bits |
| 08:21 | <@randolph> | hee |
| 08:21 | <@randolph> | I thought of it because I detached the Romulus' arms to try out the wingarms |
| 08:21 | < afny> | I originally thought about trying to make the frame a bit attacker that used the pieces of its arms on small 2x2 dish stands |
| 08:21 | < afny> | yeah, it looks cool, right? |
| 08:21 | <@randolph> | The romulus' arm still looks like it could fly by itself |
| 08:22 | <@randolph> | yeah |
| 08:22 | <@randolph> | so I figured "hey, just float them a little off to the side |
| 08:22 | <@randolph> | oh, so my idea on how to tuck away the hands |
| 08:22 | <@randolph> | you know how the default OG has 1x1 plateclip hands? |
| 08:22 | < afny> | yea |
| 08:23 | <@randolph> | sandwich it |
| 08:23 | <@randolph> | now it'll rotate |
| 08:23 | < afny> | I never do |
| 08:23 | < afny> | wait what |
| 08:23 | <@randolph> | just like the L-plate in the heels |
| 08:23 | <@randolph> | those are sandwiched, so they swivel |
| 08:24 | < afny> | what do you sandwich it between? |
| 08:24 | < afny> | I'm confused, mine already rotates. |
| 08:24 | <@randolph> | oh |
| 08:24 | <@randolph> | did you not use the 1x1 squareplate behind it? |
| 08:24 | <@randolph> | like in Soren's OG? |
| 08:24 | <@randolph> | gimme your link again |
| 08:24 | <@randolph> | I gotta see |
| 08:24 | < afny> | yeah, I just put the clip tile on |
| 08:25 | < afny> | the MgN uses these same arms |
| 08:25 | <@randolph> | ah ok |
| 08:25 | < afny> | and a lot of my mgns have big weapons |
| 08:25 | < afny> | that need rotation to hold |
| 08:25 | < afny> | so I just leave an open stud |
| 08:25 | <@randolph> | I used a 1x2 clipplate |
| 08:25 | <@randolph> | I wanted a beefy forearm |
| 08:25 | < afny> | I didnt even know that existed |
| 08:25 | < afny> | http://www.flickr.com/photos/kyanosmoros/7378165408/in/photostream/ |
| 08:25 | <@randolph> | It's in the pic XD |
| 08:25 | < afny> | I have overhangs |
| 08:25 | < afny> | 1x3 plates |
| 08:25 | <@randolph> | Ah, I see |
| 08:26 | <@randolph> | http://www.flickr.com/photos/wangtech/7399553976/in/photostream |
| 08:26 | <@randolph> | This shot shows the 1x2 clipplates |
| 08:26 | < afny> | weird |
| 08:26 | < afny> | yeah, I didn't notice |
| 08:26 | < afny> | literally never seen that part before |
| 08:26 | <@randolph> | I forgot where I got them |
| 08:26 | < afny> | I just saw it as a grey 1x1 and a clip plate |
| 08:27 | <@randolph> | hehe |
| 08:27 | < afny> | I think I broke Ced |
| 08:27 | < afny> | I asked him why he wanted a hand to hand company |
| 08:27 | < afny> | and his brain couldn't handle it |
| 08:27 | <@randolph> | Maybe he's off building it |
| 08:27 | < afny> | he must've been performing some SERIOUS doublethink up until that point. |
| 08:28 | <@randolph> | you know, totally cracked |
| 08:28 | <@randolph> | sitting on the floor in a pile of parts, crunching on a handful of 1x2 plates |
| 08:29 | < afny> | rolling huge armfuls of dice over and over |
| 08:29 | <@randolph> | "miss, miss, system destroyed, miss, system destroyed..." |
| 08:30 | < afny> | "damage to cover" |
| 08:30 | < afny> | and then he gets up and sledgehammers a hole in his wall |
| 08:30 | < afny> | before sitting back down and rolling again. |
| 08:39 | | Ced23Ric is now known as Ced|ActuallyWorking |
| 08:41 | < afny> | a likely story. |
| 08:48 | <@randolph> | Ceddobear: Randy: First WT item in the Vesopian background. ;) |
| 08:48 | <@randolph> | ^ I have no idea what this is referring to |
| 08:48 | <+Dukayn[AFK]> | the OG? |
| 08:49 | <@randolph> | Ah |
| 08:49 | <@randolph> | Except the OG isn't mine~ |
| 08:50 | <@randolph> | Also, I thought he licensed the FAR-907 |
| 08:50 | < afny> | who what |
| 08:50 | <+Dukayn[AFK]> | Well unless you /know/ that yours is 100% a replica of Soren's, it's yours. A variant, at worst. |
| 08:51 | <@randolph> | afny: Ced liked my assault rifle, used it in his Motherland series IIRC |
| 08:51 | < afny> | oh |
| 08:51 | <@randolph> | http://www.flickr.com/photos/wangtech/sets/72157629975690867/ |
| 08:51 | <@randolph> | @ Duk, fair, best I know is that it looks right after afny and I beat our heads on it :p |
| 08:52 | <@randolph> | It's *intended* to be a reverse engineering of the OG, anyway |
| 08:52 | <+Dukayn[AFK]> | Yeah |
| 08:52 | <@randolph> | I'm just waiting for Soren to say whether it's canonical in MFZ or not, so I know who WT stole it from~ |
| 08:53 | < afny> | this is why my fluff doesn't involve any producers |
| 08:53 | < afny> | don't have to worry about that |
| 08:54 | <+Dukayn[AFK]> | And why I have 2 distinct fluff areas. |
| 08:54 | < afny> | I sort of imagined all current frame tech being driven by some Anaheim Electronics like company that is playing all 3 sides |
| 08:54 | <+Dukayn[AFK]> | One is Jotorian Armouries, my frame builders. |
| 08:54 | <+Dukayn[AFK]> | and the other is my pirate company |
| 08:55 | <@randolph> | Part of my angle *is* the extrapolation of corporate influence and evolution |
| 08:55 | <@Ced|ActuallyWorking> | <afny> What made you decide you needed an hth company? <--- The realisation that I can combine the MINX, Superchub, Slammer and some odd bits into one 'frame. |
| 08:55 | <@Ced|ActuallyWorking> | And the conclusion that Avery Ontario needs her own personal company. |
| 08:55 | < afny> | I support this |
| 08:55 | <+Dukayn[AFK]> | Ced's going complete 180. |
| 08:56 | <@randolph> | He's not going to *field* it |
| 08:56 | <+Dukayn[AFK]> | It's not just HtH, it's all BB HtH :P |
| 08:56 | <@randolph> | He's just going to build it and be sad |
| 08:56 | <@Ced|ActuallyWorking> | I will field it. |
| 08:56 | <@randolph> | o_O |
| 08:56 | <+Dukayn[AFK]> | The Globetrotters gotta beat SOMEONE |
| 08:56 | <@Ced|ActuallyWorking> | I actually plan to play with it. |
| 08:56 | <@randolph> | Duk: hahahahah |
| 08:56 | <@Ced|ActuallyWorking> | I was even working on the design on the train here. |
| 08:56 | <@Ced|ActuallyWorking> | Got arms and legs done. |
| 09:12 | <@Ced|ActuallyWorking> | <@randolph> ^ I have no idea what this is referring to <--- Bricked, I meant. |
| 09:17 | <@randolph> | ahh |
| 09:44 | <@Ced|ActuallyWorking> | But I might build a FAR rifle thise time around. |

| 10:06 | < afny> | Okay, so |
| 10:06 | < afny> | did this guy put SAND |
| 10:06 | < afny> | on these plates |
| 10:06 | < afny> | before taking these pictures |
| 10:06 | < afny> | or are they just the dirtiest plates ever |
| 10:13 | <+Dukayn[AFK]> | Yeah I'd say those are old, dusty baseplates. |
| 10:13 | <+Dukayn[AFK]> | You should have seen some of the pieces at our local Lego expo a couple weeks ago |
| 10:13 | <+Dukayn[AFK]> | There was a truck there that must have been not moved for about a decade |
| 10:13 | < afny> | baseplates aren't hard to clean |
| 10:14 | < afny> | rugh |
| 10:14 | < afny> | did people really bring |
| 10:14 | < afny> | dirty pieces |
| 10:14 | <+Dukayn[AFK]> | Maybe he isn't anally retentive enough to care. |
| 10:14 | < afny> | to a live even |
| 10:14 | < afny> | I don't care about a little yellowing on white bricks, or a few spider webs and a bunch of dust on my parts when I PULL them |
| 10:14 | < afny> | but if I'm going to fucking show them off |
| 10:14 | < afny> | yeah, I clean them first. |
| 10:14 | < afny> | also, live EVENT* |

| 10:17 | < afny> | t |
| 10:17 | < afny> | that thing on the left |
| 10:17 | < afny> | is that supposed to be a car from Pimp My Ride |
| 10:17 | <+Dukayn[AFK]> | LOL |
| 10:17 | < afny> | like, we put an xbox and a bunch of fucking speakers in your trunk and left you with a dusty ass rusted out drive train |
| 10:17 | < afny> | because YOU'RE ON MTV. |
| 10:18 | <+Dukayn[AFK]> | looking at it, I'd say it's a "sports car" from the mid-90s technic set |
| 10:18 | < afny> | but that's totally a fucking lcd screen |
| 10:18 | < afny> | controllers |
| 10:18 | < afny> | and speakers |

| 10:39 | | Dukayn[AFK] is now known as Dukayn |
| 10:40 | < afny> | hm |
| 10:40 | < afny> | I'm going to watch a NICHOLAS CAGE MOVIE |
| 10:40 | < afny> | awww yeah. |
| 10:41 | < afny> | But should I watch a HORRIBLE Nicholas Cage movie |
| 10:41 | < afny> | or a good one? |
| 10:41 | < afny> | I just can't decide. |
| 10:41 | <+Dukayn> | What are your options? |
| 10:41 | < afny> | I dunno, really |
| 10:41 | < afny> | Like, for good ones |
| 10:41 | < afny> | I'm thinking Matchstick Men, Lord of War, or Adaptation |
| 10:41 | <+Dukayn> | Leaving Las Vegas. |
| 10:41 | < afny> | Is that a BAD one? |
| 10:41 | < afny> | It sounds bad. |
| 10:41 | <+Dukayn> | Nah it's good |
| 10:42 | < afny> | Oh, I was thinking of something else |
| 10:42 | < afny> | I haven't seen it |
| 10:42 | <@randolph> | hey afny |
| 10:43 | < afny> | ? |
| 10:43 | <@randolph> | Did you have thoughts on the campaign houserules? |
| 10:43 | < afny> | Lemme read through it again |
| 10:43 | < afny> | I was operating with my caffeine brain when I read it before |
| 10:43 | <@randolph> | Ah ok, I thought you were going to bring it up before |
| 10:43 | < afny> | Yeah, I was, but then I crashed |
| 10:43 | <@randolph> | It's more of a starting point |
| 10:43 | <@randolph> | yeah, I'm crashing out now too |
| 10:43 | <@randolph> | see you guys |
| 10:43 | <@randolph> | o/ |
| 10:43 | < afny> | You read some of my rant in here, right? |
| 10:44 | < afny> | I'll catch up and we'll talk later |
| 10:44 | < afny> | o7 |

| 11:10 | < afny> | Urgh |
| 11:10 | < afny> | keep looking at zizy frames |
| 11:10 | <+Dukayn> | heh |
| 11:15 | < afny> | okay |
| 11:15 | < afny> | I'm ACTUALLY GOING TO START SORTING |
| 11:15 | < afny> | This is me, SORTING |
| 11:15 | < afny> | FUCK I HATE SORTING. |
| 11:17 | <+Dukayn> | LOL |
| 11:18 | <@Ced|ActuallyWorking> | Kev, watch Drive Angry. |
| 11:18 | <@Ced|ActuallyWorking> | It's so bad, it's good. |
| 11:18 | <@Ced|ActuallyWorking> | My boss is here. |
| 11:18 | <@Ced|ActuallyWorking> | Since 9:15, we've been talking, Frank, him and I. |
| 11:19 | <@Ced|ActuallyWorking> | My lord, shit's gonna get wild over here. |
| 11:19 | < afny> | is he informing you that there's a new influx of technologically incapable baby boomers headed to your office or something? |
| 11:19 | < afny> | heh |
| 11:19 | < afny> | this movie |
| 11:19 | < afny> | 45% on rottentomatoes |
| 11:19 | < afny> | that's what I like to see. |
| 11:20 | <+Dukayn> | hahahahahaha |
| 11:21 | <+Dukayn> | 45% is actually not bad for Rotten Tomatoes :P |
| 11:34 | <@Ced|ActuallyWorking> | Nah. Just many porjects. |
| 11:35 | <@Ced|ActuallyWorking> | We're taking over another ministry, too. |
| 11:35 | <@Ced|ActuallyWorking> | Wild stuff. |

| 11:53 | <@Ceddobear> | But okay. |
| 11:54 | <@Ceddobear> | I got about 3.5h of 8h done. |
| 12:02 | <+Dukayn> | so no more real work? :P |
| 12:34 | <@Ceddobear> | Well, it's ... odd. |
| 12:34 | <@Ceddobear> | Important day. |
| 12:35 | <@Ceddobear> | Positioning myself for the future. |
| 12:35 | <@Ceddobear> | Hence my absence. |
| 12:35 | <+Dukayn> | Ah |
| 12:41 | <@Ceddobear> | We're talking about staff development and such. |
| 12:44 | <+Dukayn> | Yeah, I get it. |
| 12:45 | <+Dukayn> | The "fun" stuff :/ |
| 12:53 | <@Ceddobear> | Yeah. :D |
| 12:53 | <@Ceddobear> | Dukey. :| |
| 12:53 | <@Ceddobear> | "Well, that is my point. It's not awesome, it's clunky and too large. 3x6 is already ridiculously massive. But, anyway, you need to come up with your own ideas. Maybe take a look at Gattlinggouf's Paladin." |
| 12:53 | <@Ceddobear> | What#s being harsh about that? O_o |
| 12:54 | <+Dukayn> | I'm guessing this is "sword tutorial" guy |
| 12:55 | <@Ceddobear> | Yeah. |
| 12:55 | <@Ceddobear> | PerplexingTheorist. |
| 12:55 | <+Dukayn> | Yeah. |
| 12:55 | <@Ceddobear> | Which I agree with. |
| 12:55 | <+Dukayn> | I don't think it's too harsh. |
| 12:55 | <@Ceddobear> | His theories perplex me. |
| 12:56 | <@Ceddobear> | Se,e I wouldn't even know what COULD be perceived as harsh. |
| 12:56 | < afny> | I don't think you've been harsh to him on the board |
| 12:56 | < afny> | I just think it's funny that you WANT to be |
| 12:56 | < afny> | that you're restraining yourself from just ripping his neck off |
| 12:56 | <@Ceddobear> | Oh, you have no idea. |
| 12:56 | <+Dukayn> | No, I do :P |
| 12:56 | < afny> | btw |
| 12:56 | < afny> | my white MgN |
| 12:56 | < afny> | has two swords that are |
| 12:56 | < afny> | handle, 1x1 brick, tile clip |
| 12:56 | <@Ceddobear> | I am using a LOT of my mental capacities to hold back. |
| 12:56 | <+Dukayn> | I've been having to deal with idiots on fora (thanks Josh) for years :P |
| 12:56 | < afny> | and then 1x8 tile |
| 12:57 | <@Ceddobear> | 1x8 tiles are okay. |
| 12:57 | <@Ceddobear> | Been using one myself. |
| 12:57 | <+Dukayn> | 3x6 is.... no |
| 12:57 | <+Dukayn> | that's not even a sword blade. |
| 12:57 | <+Dukayn> | It's a goddamn plane wing |
| 12:57 | < afny> | MY WAFFLES |
| 12:57 | < afny> | OH SHIT. |

| 12:58 | <@Ceddobear> | Dukayn: He should take fucking two and explain that it's a d6Rh d6Rh d8Rh d6G d6B combo-system. |
| 12:58 | <+Dukayn> | I do like the minifig hands on there |

| 13:00 | | mode/#mf0 [+v afny] by Ceddobear |
| 13:00 | <@Ceddobear> | Those minifig hands are badly fiddly. |
| 13:00 | <@Ceddobear> | They look cool. |
| 13:00 | <@Ceddobear> | But fall of constantly. |
| 13:01 | <@Ceddobear> | *off |
| 13:01 | <@Ceddobear> | Already lost two of them. |
| 13:02 | <+afny> | yeah, I think shoving them in things |
| 13:02 | <+afny> | is a safer connection |
| 13:02 | <+afny> | or onto bars |
| 13:02 | <+afny> | onto tiles or plates is kinda flimsy |

| 13:06 | <+afny> | I love this |
| 13:07 | <+Dukayn> | Man that Lego's seen some use :P |
| 13:08 | <+afny> | the only form of weathering I approve of |
| 13:09 | <+Dukayn> | Hahaha |
| 13:15 | <@Ceddobear> | Hence, I bite. |
| 13:15 | <@Ceddobear> | But, you know what? |
| 13:15 | <@Ceddobear> | You could achieve that look with a file and some pliers. |
| 13:15 | <@Ceddobear> | Squeeze the ABS with a needle nose plier, get the profiles in. |
| 13:15 | <+afny> | stop flicking the needle |
| 13:15 | <@Ceddobear> | And then, clean up the excess with the file. |
| 13:16 | <@Ceddobear> | Or, maybe, an exacto knife. |
| 13:16 | <@Ceddobear> | Which brings me bac k to dremeled microfractures. |
| 13:19 | <+Dukayn> | Step away from the Dremel, Ced :P |
| 13:19 | <+Dukayn> | I've got some plier marks on some of my bricks, from when they just won't pull apart any other way |
| 13:33 | <@Ceddobear> | http://mobileframehangar.com/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=1639&p=11513#p11513 |
| 13:33 | <@Ceddobear> | I am angry. |
| 13:37 | <+Dukayn> | Yeah, I can understand that. |
| 13:37 | <+Dukayn> | Shit, I got Chron'd. |
| 13:37 | <+Dukayn> | I know where you're comin' from. |
| 13:38 | <+afny> | I just think investing |
| 13:38 | <+afny> | your throbbing penis |
| 13:38 | <+afny> | in lego ego battles |
| 13:38 | <+afny> | is just not a constructive use (of penis) |
| 13:38 | <@Ceddobear> | It#s a nice penis, though. |
| 13:39 | <@Ceddobear> | And CC totally deserved a bit of reaming. |
| 13:39 | <@Ceddobear> | I mean, srsly. What's his deal? Is it White Knight Wednesday? |
| 13:44 | <+afny> | I couldn't follow that guys argument |
| 13:44 | <+afny> | he just contradicted himself and didn't seem to have a point |
| 13:46 | <+Dukayn> | OK so, I finally did up the reworked Osprey in MLCad, but it's been renamed the Harrier as I think it's different enough to warrant a new model name :) http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/JA-32_Harrier1.png |
| 13:47 | <@Ceddobear> | Change the face. |
| 13:47 | <@Ceddobear> | Then, I approve of a new name. |
| 13:47 | <+Dukayn> | NO DAMMIT |
| 13:47 | <@Ceddobear> | YES DAMMIT. |
| 13:47 | <+Dukayn> | Dude, this is the Osprey: http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/JA31_Osprey_1.png |
| 13:48 | <@Ceddobear> | Kev: At least I am not insane. |
| 13:48 | <@Ceddobear> | Oh. |
| 13:48 | <@Ceddobear> | NEVERMIND. |
| 13:48 | <@Ceddobear> | I APPROVE. |
| 13:48 | <+Dukayn> | See? Different enough :P |
| 13:48 | <@Ceddobear> | HELLO THERE, ARNOLD'S WORK VEHICLE. |
| 13:48 | <+Dukayn> | Bahaha, nice True Lies reference |
| 13:49 | <+Dukayn> | Also, I love that in MLCad I can do the 1x2 plate magazines :D |
| 13:56 | <+afny> | hm |
| 13:56 | <+afny> | I need to liberate some hinge plates |
| 14:03 | <@Ceddobear> | LIBERATE YOUR MIND. |
| 14:04 | <+afny> | I think I'm going to take apart |
| 14:04 | <+afny> | three of my ijad company's frames |
| 14:04 | <+afny> | and all of the mafia frames but the red one |
| 14:04 | <+afny> | that gives me a good amount of everything but Travis |
| 14:04 | <+afny> | so mess around with original designs |
| 14:04 | <+afny> | well, and tiles |
| 14:04 | <+afny> | but I can build a frame without tiles |
| 14:04 | <@Ceddobear> | I could send you some more travis bricks. |
| 14:05 | <+afny> | I won't turn down free bricks but I have to get some money and get a new BL order together if I really want to build anything significant |
| 14:05 | <+afny> | I'm out of too many essentials to rely on charity I think |
| 14:05 | <+afny> | these sorting trays are really making me fiend |
| 14:06 | <+Dukayn> | fiend is a verb now? :P |
| 14:06 | <+afny> | I didn't verb it |
| 14:06 | <+afny> | (and yeah, verb is a verb too) |
| 14:06 | <+afny> | but it's commonly used as a verb when talking about addiction |
| 14:07 | <+afny> | Ie fiending for a cigarette |
| 14:07 | <@Ceddobear> | It's like jonesing. |
| 14:07 | <+afny> | exactly |
| 14:07 | <@Ceddobear> | brb |
| 14:09 | <+Dukayn> | ah ok I hadn't heard it used as such. |
| 14:09 | <+Dukayn> | DAMMIT WHY DOES POV RAY CHANGE TRANS ORANGE INTO TRANS NEON ORANGE? |
| 14:28 | <@Ceddobear> | To FUCK with you. |
| 14:29 | <+Dukayn> | Obvs |
| 14:31 | <@Ceddobear> | Dude, you need to hold me. |
| 14:31 | <@Ceddobear> | Make me be more peaceful. |
| 14:32 | <@Ceddobear> | Online forums take away my layer of smiles and smirks. |
| 14:32 | <@Ceddobear> | They reveal my inner contempt and indiscriminate resentment. |
| 14:32 | | * Dukayn gives his Ceddybear a big hairy man hug |
| 14:32 | | * Ceddobear is a fairly intolerant person when it comes to stupidity. |
| 14:32 | <@Ceddobear> | I wish Chron would come back. |
| 14:33 | <+Dukayn> | I am very intolerant to stupidity |
| 14:33 | | * Ceddobear sighs. |
| 14:33 | <@Ceddobear> | Captain AttentionHog is really an issue for my blood pressure. |
| 14:35 | <+afny> | fuuck I hate sorting so much |
| 14:36 | <+afny> | the worst part is |
| 14:36 | <+afny> | I know it won't STAY sorted. |
| 14:36 | <+afny> | it feels like such a temporary accomplishment |
| 14:36 | <+Dukayn> | be more organised? :P |
| 14:36 | <+afny> | yes |
| 14:36 | <+afny> | entropy is a core tenant of my existence |
| 14:37 | <+afny> | if this was just like |
| 14:38 | <+afny> | ahhh |
| 14:38 | <+afny> | it's just so many fucking bricks |
| 14:38 | <+afny> | if it was just a bricklink order, fine |
| 14:38 | <+afny> | but it's soooo many old bricks and soooo many of them are pretty useless |
| 14:38 | <+afny> | so I'm just sorting through for 1x1-1x4 stuff |
| 14:41 | <+Dukayn> | http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/wp/JA-32_Harrier.png |
| 14:43 | <+afny> | classy |
| 14:52 | <+afny> | alright |
| 14:52 | <+afny> | REALISTIC goals |
| 14:52 | <+afny> | sort the shit on my desk |
| 14:52 | <+afny> | and on my table |
| 14:52 | <+afny> | I think I have one grille plate for every other part |
| 14:57 | <@Ceddobear> | Kev. |
| 14:57 | <@Ceddobear> | Here's how I sort. |
| 14:57 | <@Ceddobear> | Sort by colour. |
| 14:57 | <@Ceddobear> | Take baggies. |
| 14:57 | <@Ceddobear> | Throw all big parts and odd colors in seperate baggies. |
| 14:57 | <@Ceddobear> | Throw baggies in drawer. |
| 14:58 | <@Ceddobear> | Then focus on usefull and small parts. |
| 14:58 | <@Ceddobear> | Sort by color. |
| 14:58 | <@Ceddobear> | Then sort by shapde. |
| 14:58 | <@Ceddobear> | -d |
| 14:58 | <@Ceddobear> | Put into bin. |
| 14:58 | <+afny> | I can't sort by color |
| 14:58 | <@Ceddobear> | Repeat as necessary. |
| 14:58 | <+afny> | with only one sorting box thing |
| 14:58 | <@Ceddobear> | YOU CAN. |
| 14:58 | <+afny> | lies |
| 14:58 | <@Ceddobear> | YOU NEED MORE PYLONS. |
| 14:58 | <+afny> | yea |
| 14:58 | <+afny> | but I don't have any minerals |
| 14:58 | <+afny> | to make them |
| 14:59 | <@Ceddobear> | http://i923.photobucket.com/albums/ad73/Brosepho/P62003014.jpg |
| 14:59 | <@Ceddobear> | DAFUQ. |
| 14:59 | <+Dukayn> | LOL I know |
| 14:59 | <+Dukayn> | I do believe he's being "silly" |
| 15:00 | <@Ceddobear> | I am sure he is. |
| 15:00 | <@Ceddobear> | His humor only tickles my facepalm muscles. |
| 15:01 | <@Ceddobear> | God, I wish I could lay off my irrational dislike for that kid. |
| 15:05 | <+Dukayn> | I just shook my head and moved on. Not worth getting riled up over. Certainly not that pic. On the plus side, he has improved the leg design even if it is stupidly long. |
| 15:19 | <+afny> | my category for 1x2 plate, modified |
| 15:19 | <+afny> | is way too broad |
| 15:19 | <+afny> | for this storage solution |
| 15:20 | <@Ceddobear> | Dukey: Nah, just the guy in general. |
| 15:20 | <@Ceddobear> | Anywho. |
| 15:21 | <@Ceddobear> | I am dne here. |
| 15:21 | <@Ceddobear> | TIme to go home. |
| 15:22 | <+Dukayn> | K mate |
| 15:22 | <+afny> | hey, maybe I won't fall asleep before you get home today |
| 15:22 | <+Dukayn> | TTYL |
| 15:22 | <+afny> | o7 |
| 15:22 | <@Ceddobear> | Heh. Be back in 45. |
| 15:23 | <+Dukayn> | afny: I have connected all my standard 1x2s together in an alternating 3-plate pattern like =| then on top of that |= etc. |
| 15:23 | <+Dukayn> | And then the "modified" ones (handles, clips, etc) I just stack on top of each other :P |
| 15:24 | <+afny> | it's those 1x2s with two ring things |
| 15:24 | <+afny> | that really make this take up so much extra space |
| 15:25 | <+Dukayn> | oh the 1x4 offset? |
| 15:26 | <+afny> | yeah |
| 15:26 | | Ceddobear [Ced@Nightstar-47ff655f.dip.t-dialin.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 121 seconds] |
| 15:31 | <+Dukayn> | Do those separate perhaps. |
| 15:34 | <+afny> | hm |
| 15:34 | <+afny> | alright, sorted everything on my desk, table, and one tray |
| 15:34 | <+afny> | still zero ringplates |
| 15:34 | <+afny> | so it's back to picking some frames to cannibalize |
| 15:36 | <+afny> | I really have no idea what I did with all my 1x1 light bley tiles |
| 15:36 | <+afny> | maybe I used them all |
| 15:37 | <+Dukayn> | definitely possible |
| 15:42 | <+afny> | balls |
| 15:42 | <+afny> | almost all the ring plates I could reclaim with these guys |
| 15:42 | <+afny> | are yellow |
| 15:42 | <+afny> | oh well |
| 15:42 | <+afny> | whatever |
| 15:42 | <+afny> | hyaku shiki-esque mecha it is |
| 15:46 | <+afny> | I feel like I need to somehow make a scrambler/strider for my Ijad company |
| 15:46 | <+afny> | or it won't be taken seriously |
| 15:46 | <+Dukayn> | hehe |
| 15:46 | <+afny> | I mean it has five chubs in it, so it already won't be taken seriously |
| 15:46 | <+Dukayn> | well it depends on what the Ijad have bonded with |
| 15:47 | <+afny> | yea |
| 15:47 | <+Dukayn> | the Scrambler-based models are only those who are joined to a ghanat |
| 15:47 | <+afny> | That's what I keep telling Ced |
| 15:47 | <+afny> | but he insists on wiring up humans in there |
| 15:47 | <+Dukayn> | That'd be mighty uncomfortable |
| 15:47 | <+afny> | I've only gone one frame in my Ijad/Mercs that clearly is piloted by a non-human |
| 15:47 | <+afny> | yeah, that's what I said :\ |
| 15:47 | <+Dukayn> | although his cockpits are hugely bulky |
| 15:47 | <+Dukayn> | so his could probably work |
| 15:47 | <+afny> | he tells me that the purple ones didn't bother to modify for human comfort |
| 15:48 | <+afny> | but his unbuilt blue ones did |
| 15:48 | <+afny> | I get the blue ones, then, if they changed the design to accommodate human morphology |
| 15:48 | <+afny> | but I was sort of under the impression that the Ijad BUILT the strider to take advantage of the ghanat limbs |
| 15:48 | <+afny> | and the interfacing between them was what made fluid movement in a scrambler possible |
| 15:48 | <+Dukayn> | maybe they did, I dunno. |
| 15:48 | <+afny> | (also dragoons) |
| 15:48 | <+afny> | I mean I think I read it somewhere |
| 15:49 | <+Dukayn> | I'm not even really bothering with the Ijad much |
| 15:49 | <+afny> | They're by far the most interesting "faction" to me, fluff wise |
| 15:49 | <+afny> | but the thing I love most about MFZ lore is the way the three factions blur |
| 15:49 | <+afny> | it isn't just like you pick a "race" and that "race" defines your fluff |
| 15:49 | <+afny> | it's a lot more complicated than that. |
| 15:49 | <+Dukayn> | Yeah |
| 15:49 | <+Dukayn> | And I need to talk to Soren about whether or not an Ijad would be likely to take up a life of piracy |
| 15:50 | <+Dukayn> | Pretty sure the answer would be "depends on the individual" like most things. |
| 15:50 | <+Dukayn> | but I wanna make sure before I go and say "yep this guy is a tentacle head" |
| 15:52 | <+afny> | nah dude, you can TOTALLY do that |
| 15:52 | <+afny> | Ijad can be anything |
| 15:52 | <+afny> | if there are Ijad bonded humans in UMFL service |
| 15:52 | <+afny> | there are certainly Ijad bonded mercs and pirates |
| 15:53 | <+afny> | Just like some extremist Ijad ride humans |
| 15:53 | <+afny> | it goes both ways |
| 15:58 | <+Dukayn> | Fair enough |
| 15:58 | <+Dukayn> | That works for me. |
| 16:00 | <+afny> | yess |
| 16:01 | <+afny> | everyone needs sum Ijad free-thinkers in their company |

| 16:16 | <+afny> | I can use my INGENIOUS top rails to mount a light |
| 16:16 | <+afny> | oo |
| 16:17 | <+afny> | awesome description |
| 16:17 | <+Dukayn> | ty |
| 16:17 | <+afny> | and you didn't break my CARDINAL RULE like Ced |
| 16:17 | <+Dukayn> | I was hoping it was enough to go on |
| 16:17 | <+Dukayn> | what's your cardinal rule? |
| 16:17 | <+afny> | don't say "He looks basically like "insert anime character here" |
| 16:17 | <+Dukayn> | hahaha |
| 16:17 | <+afny> | er...one too many quotes |
| 16:17 | <+Dukayn> | well in my head I was thinking to myself "Don't say he looks like Peter Dinklage, don't say he looks like Peter Dinklage!" |
| 16:18 | <+afny> | haha but that's immediately what I thought anyway |
| 16:18 | <+Dukayn> | Cos well, he doesn't. But it's the most evocative and easiest comparison. |
| 16:18 | <+afny> | I'll have a hard time not drawing Peter Dinklage |
| 16:18 | <+afny> | he's a sexy motherfucker |
| 16:18 | <+Dukayn> | INORTIE |
| 16:18 | <+Dukayn> | INORITE* |
| 16:18 | <+Dukayn> | He's a BAMF |
| 16:19 | <+afny> | a |
| 16:19 | <+afny> | ...brother you might fuck? |
| 16:19 | <+Dukayn> | lol |
| 16:19 | <+afny> | a... |
| 16:19 | <+afny> | I don't even know |
| 16:19 | <+Dukayn> | BadAss MotherFucker |
| 16:19 | <+afny> | AH. |
| 16:19 | <+afny> | Makes MORE SENSE. |
| 16:20 | <+Dukayn> | I originally thought to have him one of the bonded. |
| 16:20 | <+Dukayn> | But then realised that his tentacles would drag in the dirt :P |
| 16:20 | <+afny> | He could wrap them |
| 16:20 | <+Dukayn> | Yeah, but I already have ideas on the bonded pilots. |
| 16:20 | <+afny> | when I read your description, I immediately thought of Peter Dinklage's character from Penelope |
| 16:21 | <+Dukayn> | I haven't seen that. I do have The Station Agent but I have yet to watch it. |
| 16:21 | <+afny> | http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m5k0ncY8mn1qegn55o1_r2_400.gif |
| 16:21 | <+afny> | this is him in Penelope. |
| 16:22 | <+Dukayn> | LOL THAT GIF |
| 16:22 | <+Dukayn> | That's the mo, but the hair's nowhere near neat |
| 16:22 | <+Dukayn> | and... no patch. |
| 16:22 | <+afny> | Yeah, but you can see why I immediately jumped to this |
| 16:23 | <+afny> | I mean...pirates and eyepatches. |
| 16:23 | <+Dukayn> | Yes |
| 16:23 | <@Ceddobear> | Backsies. |
| 16:23 | <+Dukayn> | And shit I love that gif |
| 16:23 | <+Dukayn> | it's like |
| 16:23 | <@Ceddobear> | What. |
| 16:23 | <@Ceddobear> | Oh. |
| 16:23 | <@Ceddobear> | Heh. |
| 16:23 | <@Ceddobear> | HE LOOKS LIKE GUILE. |
| 16:23 | <+afny> | I'm just watching it |
| 16:23 | <+Dukayn> | "Cmon, put it there. Just, put it there. Cmon. Cmon. NO FUCK YOU BYE" |
| 16:23 | <+afny> | over and over |
| 16:23 | <@Ceddobear> | I was kidding, Kev. :D |
| 16:23 | <+afny> | that's Nick Frost on the other side of the glass |
| 16:23 | <+afny> | LIAR |
| 16:23 | <+afny> | the fat guy from Spaced/Shaun of the Dead |
| 16:23 | <+Dukayn> | OMG NICK FROST |
| 16:23 | | * Dukayn goes to find this movie |
| 16:24 | <+afny> | Penelope is a really good movie |
| 16:24 | <+Dukayn> | I love Frost & Pegg |
| 16:24 | <+afny> | kind of a rom-com |
| 16:24 | <+afny> | it's not really their kind of humor, but it's good |
| 16:24 | <+Dukayn> | Also WHEN IS THIS PIECE OF OH SHIT AWESOME COMING OUT? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1545660/ |
| 16:24 | <+afny> | I hope it's good |
| 16:24 | <+afny> | it's one of those things that like, I'm afraid it will SUCK |
| 16:24 | <@Ceddobear> | Ugh. |
| 16:24 | <+afny> | but it has the potential to be really good |
| 16:24 | <@Ceddobear> | My boss wants to go for beers tonight. |
| 16:24 | <@Ceddobear> | AND I HAVE TO GO. |
| 16:24 | <+afny> | Gotta climb that corporate ladder |
| 16:25 | <@Ceddobear> | Political decision, yeah. |
| 16:25 | <+Dukayn> | Bahahahahaha |
| 16:25 | <+afny> | DRONE. |
| 16:25 | <@Ceddobear> | Fuck you. :/ |
| 16:25 | <@Ceddobear> | I LIKE MONEY. |
| 16:25 | <+afny> | Hehe |
| 16:25 | <+Dukayn> | I love that my entire company is <15 people |
| 16:25 | <+Dukayn> | And I'm personal friends with the Director. |
| 16:25 | <+Dukayn> | He gave me PS3 games and a new phone a month after I started |
| 16:25 | <@Ceddobear> | My company is 6000. |
| 16:25 | <@Ceddobear> | Goal for 2020 is 10000. |
| 16:26 | <+Dukayn> | Your "company" is part of the German government :P |
| 16:26 | <+afny> | A GOVERNMENT that's EXPANDING? |
| 16:26 | <@Ceddobear> | Nah. |
| 16:26 | <+afny> | Astonishing. |
| 16:26 | <@Ceddobear> | I am not gov. |
| 16:26 | <@Ceddobear> | I work for the gov. |
| 16:26 | <@Ceddobear> | Private contractor. |

| 16:28 | <+MittenNinja> | sup guys |
| 16:28 | <@Ceddobear> | Anywho - my boss told me today that he wants me to keep close eyes on the upcoming hard- and software upgrades. |
| 16:28 | <+Dukayn> | MITTENS! |
| 16:28 | <+Dukayn> | I didn't see you sneak in there |
| 16:28 | <@Ceddobear> | And get involved with the server migration. |
| 16:28 | <@Ceddobear> | So I know the site intimately. |
| 16:28 | <+Dukayn> | Aw man they're making you DO stuff? |
| 16:28 | <@Ceddobear> | Which is odd. |
| 16:28 | <@Ceddobear> | Because I am still in probation period. |
| 16:28 | <@Ceddobear> | Sounds like I am passing. ;) |
| 16:28 | <+Dukayn> | Haha |
| 16:28 | <@Ceddobear> | But, considering this, I REALLY WANT TO GO FOR A BEER. |
| 16:28 | <@Ceddobear> | SO STOKED. |
| 16:28 | <+MittenNinja> | well i AM a ninja |
| 16:28 | <@Ceddobear> | ;) |
| 16:29 | <+Dukayn> | Yeah I was still on probation in my last job at the time the annual performance reviews came along. |
| 16:29 | <@Ceddobear> | Lovin' the close up of the Harrier. |
| 16:29 | <+Dukayn> | I scored 5/5 which only 3 people in each branch office were allowed to be scored at so I figured I was pretty safe there :P |
| 16:29 | <@Ceddobear> | Heh. |
| 16:29 | <@Ceddobear> | OH! |
| 16:29 | <+MittenNinja> | yeah that close up shot is sweet |
| 16:29 | <+Dukayn> | Yeah that's my current wallpaper |
| 16:29 | <@Ceddobear> | KEVIN! |
| 16:29 | <@Ceddobear> | I HAVE AN IDEA. |
| 16:29 | <+afny> | Oh what |
| 16:29 | <@Ceddobear> | Mobile Battlefleet Zero:Naval Assault. |
| 16:30 | <+Dukayn> | I'm going to do a series of close-ups if people want. |
| 16:30 | <+afny> | Boats? |
| 16:30 | <+afny> | Is your idea BOATS? |
| 16:30 | <@Ceddobear> | Starships. |
| 16:30 | <+afny> | I think that's already a planned official expansion |
| 16:30 | <+MittenNinja> | Josh is already working on that :) |
| 16:30 | <@Ceddobear> | D: |
| 16:30 | <+afny> | at least it was POSSIBLY one, he was either going to work on space combat for frames |
| 16:30 | <@Ceddobear> | I prefer it my way. |
| 16:30 | <+afny> | or space combat for ships |
| 16:30 | <@Ceddobear> | MY WAY IS BETTER. |
| 16:30 | <+afny> | space combat for frames already sort of exists |
| 16:30 | <+afny> | what's different about your way? |
| 16:30 | <@Ceddobear> | BECAUSE I TOOK 20 MINUTES ON THE TRAIN. |
| 16:30 | <+MittenNinja> | he was plannig on starships |
| 16:30 | <@Ceddobear> | AND THEN, FELL ASLEEP. |
| 16:30 | <+afny> | that sounds like a good way |
| 16:31 | <@Ceddobear> | I know. |
| 16:31 | <@Ceddobear> | SO! |
| 16:31 | <@Ceddobear> | Every ship has 3 d6W. |
| 16:31 | <@Ceddobear> | And up to 5 systems. |
| 16:31 | <@Ceddobear> | 3x DF = 2d6 + 2d8 |
| 16:31 | <+afny> | why so many dice? |
| 16:31 | <@Ceddobear> | Because they get 3d6W. |
| 16:31 | <+afny> | but why |
| 16:32 | <+Dukayn> | Cos they're SHIPS |
| 16:32 | <@Ceddobear> | So they become sturdier. |
| 16:32 | <+Dukayn> | Thus, bigger and better than frames |
| 16:32 | <+afny> | a ship would be EXPONENTIALLY better than frames, though |
| 16:32 | <+afny> | CATACLYSMICALLY better |
| 16:32 | <@Ceddobear> | Well, yes. |
| 16:32 | <+afny> | they don't compare on the same scale |
| 16:32 | <@Ceddobear> | Well, fuck you then. |
| 16:32 | <+afny> | In fact, in the blurb from V and J about space combat |
| 16:32 | <+afny> | deployment of frames in space would be a system |
| 16:32 | <+afny> | one system |
| 16:32 | <@Ceddobear> | And I keep my trainsleep idea to myself. |
| 16:32 | <+afny> | :c |
| 16:32 | <+afny> | :C |
| 16:32 | <@Ceddobear> | You wanted it this way. |
| 16:33 | <+afny> | Is that a sad face, it doesn't look like it on colloquy |
| 16:33 | <+afny> | I'm just sayin', why more dice |
| 16:33 | <+afny> | just use the same amount of dice but different rules |
| 16:33 | <+afny> | dice is EXPENSIVE son |
| 16:34 | <+Dukayn> | I'm actually considering making marker tokens for when I play |
| 16:34 | <+Dukayn> | so I don't need quite so many dice, or can use my dice roller app on my phone. |
| 16:34 | <+MittenNinja> | dice arent that expensive |
| 16:34 | <+afny> | I've already got mine designed |
| 16:34 | <+afny> | it's a card divided bilaterally |
| 16:34 | <+Dukayn> | They can be. Local nerd shop here sells 'em $2 EACH |
| 16:34 | <+afny> | with numbers 0-6 |
| 16:35 | <+afny> | d8s are expensive, Mitten |
| 16:35 | <+MittenNinja> | get the chessex dice cubes |
| 16:35 | <+afny> | especially if you want to get the proper colors |
| 16:35 | <+MittenNinja> | 30 dice |
| 16:35 | <+MittenNinja> | $5 |
| 16:35 | <+afny> | some of it is wasted on dice you don't need |
| 16:35 | <+afny> | and it's hard to get the colors |
| 16:35 | <+MittenNinja> | each cube is all one color |
| 16:35 | <+Dukayn> | Remember I'm in bumfuck, Australia. |
| 16:35 | <+MittenNinja> | got one white |
| 16:35 | <+MittenNinja> | one blue |
| 16:35 | <+MittenNinja> | etc |
| 16:35 | <+MittenNinja> | THE INTERNETS |
| 16:35 | <+afny> | but they come with a bunch of stuff |
| 16:35 | <@Ceddobear> | Chessex is from the UK. |
| 16:35 | <+afny> | that you don't need |
| 16:35 | <@Ceddobear> | And Mittens has Chessex dice. |
| 16:35 | <@Ceddobear> | So quit your bickering. |
| 16:36 | <@Ceddobear> | Chessex is the international standard for large amounts of d6. |
| 16:36 | <+afny> | well |
| 16:36 | <+afny> | my way is free |
| 16:36 | <+Dukayn> | ^ |
| 16:36 | <+afny> | you can just use paperclips to denote the number |
| 16:36 | <+MittenNinja> | http://www.chessex.com/Dice/Opaque%20Dice/25404.htm |
| 16:36 | <+afny> | and you put one card by each frame for spot and defense |
| 16:36 | <+afny> | no other values need to be tracked past the roll |
| 16:36 | <+MittenNinja> | 36 d6s for $6 |
| 16:36 | <+MittenNinja> | all one color |
| 16:36 | <+afny> | I'd rather spend 6 bucks on lego |
| 16:37 | <+afny> | more realistically |
| 16:37 | <+MittenNinja> | just sayin, dice dont have to be expensive :) |
| 16:37 | <+afny> | i'd rather spend the THIRTY+ dollars I'd have to spend on dice |
| 16:37 | <+afny> | to get the right colors |
| 16:37 | <+afny> | on lego |
| 16:37 | <+afny> | 30 bucks is expensive |
| 16:37 | <+MittenNinja> | keep in mind, thats enough dice for multiple players |
| 16:37 | <+MittenNinja> | go in on it with some buddies and split up the dice |
| 16:38 | <+afny> | I already have enough dice to roll anything anyone might need at one time |
| 16:38 | <+Dukayn> | Chessex Manufacturing PO Box 80255 Fort Wayne, IN 46898-0255 |
| 16:38 | <+afny> | why spend extra money? |
| 16:38 | <+Dukayn> | You got a funny definition for "UK" Ced |
| 16:38 | <+afny> | I think he was thinking "Essex" |
| 16:39 | <+MittenNinja> | im not saying you need more dice |
| 16:39 | <@Ceddobear> | UNITEDSTATESOFAMERICA, K? |
| 16:39 | <+MittenNinja> | im just saying they dont have to be expensive |
| 16:40 | <+afny> | and I'm saying 30 bucks for the dice needed to play the game is expensive |
| 16:40 | <+afny> | even if it covers multiple people |
| 16:40 | <@Ceddobear> | Kev: You got ~20 d6B amd ~20 d6Y? |
| 16:40 | <+afny> | wat |
| 16:40 | <+afny> | you don't need nearly that much d8 |
| 16:40 | <@Ceddobear> | d6. |
| 16:40 | <+MittenNinja> | thats 180 dice for $30 |
| 16:40 | <+afny> | I've got a ton of d6 |
| 16:40 | <+Dukayn> | Ohhhhh Ceeeeed: http://www.mobileframehangar.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=1653 |
| 16:40 | <@Ceddobear> | You got 20 blue, 20 yellow? |
| 16:40 | <+MittenNinja> | split between four people |
| 16:40 | <+afny> | no? |
| 16:40 | <@Ceddobear> | Well. |
| 16:40 | <+afny> | I said I have enough to roll anything on one turn |
| 16:40 | <@Ceddobear> | Screw you, then. |
| 16:41 | <@Ceddobear> | But you need to mark DEF. |
| 16:41 | <+afny> | d8s don't ever stay on the table |
| 16:41 | <@Ceddobear> | And SPOT. |
| 16:41 | <@Ceddobear> | d6 *!!!!!* |
| 16:41 | <+afny> | I told you, I made cards |
| 16:41 | <+afny> | divided bilaterally |
| 16:41 | <+afny> | one side blue, one side green |
| 16:41 | <+afny> | er...yellow |
| 16:41 | <+afny> | with the numbers 0-6 printed |
| 16:41 | <+afny> | you can indicate the integer easily with a paperclip and just smack it down next to the frame |
| 16:41 | <+MittenNinja> | i think it really comes down to the aesthetics |
| 16:41 | <@Ceddobear> | Dukey: That is horrid. |
| 16:42 | <+Dukayn> | Hehehehhee |
| 16:42 | <+afny> | I'm going to design them in PS and laminate them |
| 16:42 | <+Dukayn> | Hey it's better than what he had before :P |
| 16:42 | <+afny> | and they'll be small, like 2x4 |
| 16:42 | <+afny> | in* |
| 16:42 | <+afny> | not BEAUTIFUL to have on your table, but not an eyesore |
| 16:42 | <@Ceddobear> | I could poop on a 2x4 bricks and stick a 1x6 tile in it and it would look better. |
| 16:42 | <@Ceddobear> | AND BE MORE POSABLE. |
| 16:43 | <+MittenNinja> | I'd rahter spend the money and have it look awesome and involve less work personally |
| 16:43 | <+MittenNinja> | but thats me |
| 16:43 | <+afny> | I'm not saying you're in the wrong for doing that |
| 16:43 | <@Ceddobear> | Kevin lives in a desert. |
| 16:43 | <+afny> | I'm just dirt poor |
| 16:43 | <+afny> | and I like making things |
| 16:43 | <@Ceddobear> | And in a desert. |
| 16:43 | <@Ceddobear> | Like sandcastles. |
| 16:43 | <+afny> | I do like sandcastles. |
| 16:43 | <+afny> | but they're hard as fuck to make in the desert. |
| 16:43 | <@Ceddobear> | And sandcakes. |
| 16:43 | <+afny> | and cheesecastles. |
| 16:43 | <@Ceddobear> | You need to pee on the sand. |

| 16:44 | <@Ceddobear> | Inorite. |
| 16:44 | <+afny> | the knife. |
| 16:44 | <@Ceddobear> | LOL |
| 16:44 | <+afny> | Anyway, Mitten |
| 16:44 | <+Dukayn> | Was that him? |
| 16:44 | <@Ceddobear> | PLEASE, GENTLEMEN, BEAR WITNESS TO MY NEWEST CREATION. |
| 16:44 | <+afny> | if the game costs 20 bucks, and the dice cost 30 |
| 16:44 | <@Ceddobear> | IT IS A PORTABLE LIGHTBOX. |
| 16:44 | <+afny> | even if you only need one rulebook and one set of dice for 2-5 players |
| 16:44 | <+afny> | that's still fifty bucks |
| 16:44 | <@Ceddobear> | By using two envelopes. |
| 16:44 | <+afny> | and that's if no players buy any new LEGO |
| 16:44 | <+Dukayn> | LOL |
| 16:44 | <+MittenNinja> | which is still cheaper than a warhammer rulebook |
| 16:45 | <+afny> | true, but I'm not trying to pull in a warhammer audience, necessarily |
| 16:45 | <+Dukayn> | Oh god no please |
| 16:45 | <+afny> | one of the major reasons I like the game is its low barrier to entry monetarily |
| 16:45 | <+Dukayn> | Let them keep their game |
| 16:45 | <+MittenNinja> | exactly |
| 16:45 | <+MittenNinja> | thats my point |
| 16:45 | <+afny> | so I don't want to go up to people and say |
| 16:45 | <+afny> | hey |
| 16:45 | <+Dukayn> | It'd be like trying to pull the COD players into a new awesome FPS |
| 16:45 | <+MittenNinja> | even if you buy lots of stuff |
| 16:45 | <+afny> | you need to buy all these dice |
| 16:45 | <+MittenNinja> | its STILL cheaper |
| 16:45 | <@Ceddobear> | Dukey: I wanna play with that kid. |
| 16:45 | <@Ceddobear> | And destroy his 'frame. |
| 16:45 | <+afny> | If I do a demo, I don't mind using home-printed stuff |
| 16:45 | <+afny> | because it shows the game is really flexible |
| 16:45 | <@Ceddobear> | "Can I do the damage?" - "Sure." |
| 16:45 | <+afny> | and cheap |
| 16:45 | <@Ceddobear> | HULKSMASH. |
| 16:46 | <@Ceddobear> | Kev: I actually like your idea. |
| 16:46 | <+MittenNinja> | its a good idea |
| 16:46 | <@Ceddobear> | I got an offer for you. |
| 16:46 | <@Ceddobear> | Are you gonna use the company sheet I did up? |
| 16:46 | <+MittenNinja> | I just prefer sleek shiny uniform things |
| 16:46 | <@Ceddobear> | Because, if so, I'll build you a DEF/SPOT chart sheet. |
| 16:46 | <+MittenNinja> | Dude Ceddo |
| 16:46 | <+MittenNinja> | those sheets were a lifesaver at the con |
| 16:46 | <+MittenNinja> | thank you |
| 16:47 | <@Ceddobear> | lol, no worries. :D |
| 16:47 | <@Ceddobear> | Josh: "You really don't need sheets. It's so easy." |
| 16:47 | <+MittenNinja> | its true |
| 16:47 | <@Ceddobear> | I'm glad they worked. |
| 16:47 | <+afny> | I dunno, I haven't looked at your sheets Ced |
| 16:47 | <+afny> | got a link? |
| 16:47 | <@Ceddobear> | *!* |
| 16:47 | <+afny> | I've seen them in battle report photos but I haven't seen, like |
| 16:47 | <+afny> | the image |
| 16:47 | <+MittenNinja> | but with them i had guys finish an entire game after walking them through a partial turn |
| 16:47 | <+Dukayn> | lol |
| 16:47 | <+MittenNinja> | that have never seen the game before |
| 16:48 | <+MittenNinja> | i just stoof back and watched |
| 16:48 | <+MittenNinja> | *stood |
| 16:48 | <+afny> | Mitten: do you think those sheets are NOT sleek, shiny and uniform? |
| 16:48 | <+MittenNinja> | no they are |
| 16:48 | <@Ceddobear> | http://www.mobileframehangar.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=1220 |
| 16:48 | <+MittenNinja> | but i also lamenated them |
| 16:48 | <+afny> | yeah, mine will be too |
| 16:48 | <+MittenNinja> | and used dry erase markers with the, |
| 16:48 | <+MittenNinja> | *them |
| 16:48 | <+afny> | designed in a similar fashion to Ced's sheets and laminated |
| 16:48 | <+MittenNinja> | I wouldnt use them though if i wasnt teaching the game to newbies |
| 16:49 | <+afny> | could use a dry erase instead of a paperclip, but a paperclip is a bit easier to shift because you don't have to erase |
| 16:49 | <+afny> | yeah Ced, these are really nice |
| 16:49 | <@Ceddobear> | I'll whip up some DEF/SPOT cards, then. |
| 16:49 | <@Ceddobear> | And the paperclip idea is genius. |
| 16:50 | <@Ceddobear> | Dafuq. |
| 16:50 | <+afny> | I'm not 100% sure if my home laminating capabilities will be sturdy enough against the pressure of a clip to not warp the card |
| 16:50 | <+afny> | but we'll see |
| 16:50 | <@Ceddobear> | "Hello. Do you want to watch German girls live in front of the camera? CLICK HERE." |
| 16:50 | <+Dukayn> | BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA http://thinknice.com/wp-content/uploads/2011/08/Funny-Animated-GIF-Exploding-Fir eworks.gif |
| 16:51 | <@Ceddobear> | Darwin award right there. |
| 16:51 | <+Dukayn> | ^ That is Ced, doing a one-shot kill to PerplexingTheorist's frame :P |
| 16:51 | <+Dukayn> | Man I'm still giggling |
| 16:51 | <+Dukayn> | I'm saving that, for later use. |
| 16:52 | <+afny> | those legs are "quiet stable" guys |
| 16:53 | <+Dukayn> | ah, it's a stealth system |
| 16:53 | <+afny> | "quiet stable" flimsy legs |
| 16:53 | <+afny> | one blue. |
| 16:53 | <@Ceddobear> | Stop talking about him. |
| 16:53 | <+Dukayn> | But as they are flimsy, roll damage dice if you go over difficult terrain because you trip and fall over |
| 16:53 | <@Ceddobear> | I really, really, REALLY want to rip him the fuck apart. |
| 16:54 | <@Ceddobear> | Maybe even STEAL HIS SUCKER and KICK HIS PUPPY. |
| 16:54 | <@Ceddobear> | Stickers arrived today. |
| 16:54 | <+Dukayn> | http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/DuploFrameStation.png |
| 16:54 | <@Ceddobear> | Prolly gonna apply ome tonight. |
| 16:54 | <+Dukayn> | for my 4 year old :D |
| 16:54 | <@Ceddobear> | After my IMPORTANT BEER. |
| 16:55 | <@Ceddobear> | You made him a 404 pae? |
| 16:55 | <@Ceddobear> | *page |
| 16:55 | <+Dukayn> | YES |
| 16:55 | <+Dukayn> | http://www.dukayn.net/MFZ/DuploFrameStation.jpg |
| 16:55 | <@Ceddobear> | AWESOME. |
| 16:55 | <+Dukayn> | the one time it's actually a JPG |
| 16:55 | <+MittenNinja> | STICKERS |
| 16:55 | <@Ceddobear> | Yeah, I know. |
| 16:55 | <@Ceddobear> | Mittens: They are wicked. |
| 16:56 | <@Ceddobear> | If you cut them out individually, I am sending you over 75 bullet holes you can sticker on. |
| 16:56 | <~maoranma> | Dukayn: Do you live near the feral pig populations? |
| 16:57 | <+Dukayn> | No, nowhere close really |
| 16:57 | <~maoranma> | I'm watching a special on Nat Geo Wild, was curious |
| 16:58 | | maoranma is now known as Noah |
| 16:58 | <+Dukayn> | http://www.environment.gov.au/biodiversity/invasive/publications/information-gap s/images/figure1.jpg |
| 16:58 | <+Dukayn> | pigs, middle-right |
| 16:58 | <+Dukayn> | we're the island off the south east coast there |
| 16:59 | <~Noah> | yea, I know what the silhouette of a pig looks like |
| 16:59 | <~Noah> | Is that a cat beside it? |
| 16:59 | <+Dukayn> | Cats on the left middle yeah |
| 16:59 | <+Dukayn> | We got a lot of those fuckers running loose |
| 17:00 | <~Noah> | Almost as bad as rabbits |
| 17:00 | <+Dukayn> | yeah |
| 17:00 | <+Dukayn> | Anyway it's 2am and I really should go to bed |
| 17:00 | <+Dukayn> | Night all |
| 17:00 | <~Noah> | G'night |
| 17:00 | <+afny> | ight |
| 17:00 | | Dukayn [dcfd2c3c@Nightstar-4fab16c5.mibbit.com] has quit [[NS] Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client] |
| 17:01 | <+afny> | hm |
| 17:01 | <+afny> | I need direction |
| 17:01 | <+afny> | I could make this new frame for my Ijad company |
| 17:01 | <+afny> | if I break down all the Nimrods |
| 17:01 | <+afny> | that leaves it with one opening |
| 17:02 | <~Noah> | made any spaceships? |
| 17:03 | <+afny> | not in a while |
| 17:03 | <+afny> | I was gonna start building them again but then I was making guns |
| 17:03 | <+afny> | and now I've started cannibalizing frames |
| 17:09 | <+MittenNinja> | it happens |
| 17:09 | <+MittenNinja> | im about to do the same |
| 17:10 | <+afny> | I haven't decided if I'm really going to go through with it |
| 17:10 | <+afny> | r |
| 17:10 | <+afny> | +eworking some systems and taking apart just one frame from my skirmish company got me enough ring plates to play with |
| 17:10 | <+afny> | but if I took apart this whole company and three of my Ijad frames, I'd have a lot of stuff |
| 17:10 | <+afny> | with the exception of Travi |
| 17:10 | <+afny> | +s |
| 17:11 | <+afny> | I was to experiment with different connections, so not having taps or travis isn't that bad |
| 17:12 | <@Ceddobear> | Kev ... decide what your fav company is. |
| 17:12 | <@Ceddobear> | And then, your two least fav companies. |
| 17:12 | <@Ceddobear> | The fav is untouchable. |
| 17:12 | <@Ceddobear> | The least two die. |
| 17:12 | <+afny> | eh |
| 17:12 | <@Ceddobear> | Build a new company and rank it. |
| 17:12 | <+afny> | I think the least 1.5 favorite |
| 17:12 | <+afny> | will die |
| 17:12 | <@Ceddobear> | Rinse and repeat until you are happy. |
| 17:12 | <+afny> | but I'm pretty set on keeping both my FC and UMFL companies |
| 17:12 | <@Ceddobear> | It's what I did. ^^ |
| 17:12 | <+afny> | and about HALF my ijad company |
| 17:13 | <+afny> | the Ijad company that evolved out of my original merc characters has to stay in at least some capacity |
| 17:13 | <+afny> | I can rework the frames, but the core idea will stay the same |
| 17:13 | <+afny> | the UMFL company looks really good, so that stays |
| 17:13 | <+afny> | and the FC company is like |
| 17:13 | <+afny> | I don't know, the only one I MIGHT change in that is the conscript |
| 17:13 | <+afny> | the MgNs are all solid |
| 17:14 | <+afny> | and the hi-legs make it |
| 17:15 | <@Ceddobear> | CRUSH THE REST. |
| 17:15 | <@Ceddobear> | LET THE LEGO GODS SORT THEM OUT. |
| 17:15 | <+MittenNinja> | lol |
| 17:15 | <+afny> | yeah, I think |
| 17:15 | <+afny> | big head chub mafia |
| 17:15 | <+afny> | might get crunched for now |
| 17:16 | <+afny> | I really like that concept but they're held together by tablescraps anyway |
| 17:16 | <+afny> | I can always remake them when I have the proper bits |
| 17:16 | <+MittenNinja> | true that |
| 17:16 | <+MittenNinja> | thats why i pulled apart my nagas |
| 17:16 | <+afny> | the problem is, even crunching the 8 frames this would give me |
| 17:16 | <+MittenNinja> | i needed those travis bricks |
| 17:16 | <+afny> | nets me 0 travis |
| 17:17 | <+afny> | zizy frames don't use many, or any though |
| 17:17 | <+MittenNinja> | true |
| 17:17 | <+afny> | so if I fill in the Ijad gap with a Zizy frame |
| 17:17 | <+MittenNinja> | those things are pretty sweet too |
| 17:17 | <+afny> | yeah, I'm really into his stuff right now |
| 17:17 | <+afny> | I didn't really know about it |
| 17:18 | <+MittenNinja> | his stuff looks sweet |
| 17:18 | <+MittenNinja> | but it's a little flimsy for my tastes |
| 17:18 | <+MittenNinja> | not that the frames are fragile |
| 17:18 | <+MittenNinja> | but a lot of his limbs are only a plate or two thick |
| 17:18 | <+afny> | I really don't mind that |
| 17:18 | <+afny> | but it's sometimes weird at 7p scale |
| 17:18 | <+afny> | it can work, though |
| 17:18 | <+MittenNinja> | i like a little more chunky-ness |
| 17:21 | <+afny> | I'm just going to work on some original designs |
| 17:22 | <+afny> | using his stuff as inspiration |
| 17:22 | <+afny> | I haven't made any original frames since my first design, every time I get bricks I just |
| 17:22 | <+afny> | make a ton of Soren's stuff |
| 17:22 | <+afny> | now that I'm cannibalizing, I feel like I can slow down and just mess around with bits |
| 17:22 | <+afny> | I still have two working companies to play with at any time (if I can find a game) |
| 17:23 | <+MittenNinja> | in about 15 minutes I'll have a moss green iguana |
| 17:23 | <@Ceddobear> | Cannibalizing is fun. |
| 17:25 | <~Noah> | having good luck with the vinyl dye? |
| 17:25 | <+MittenNinja> | yeah its working pretty well |
| 17:26 | <+MittenNinja> | I'm going to try and rework the anaconda a bit too to make it more sturdy |
| 17:26 | <+MittenNinja> | and then do that one up in the green too |
| 17:27 | <~Noah> | Do you think you could do closer shots of those dishes you dyed, I'm curious of the detail |
| 17:27 | <~Noah> | It looks like from white to black, they look identical, but it's hard to tell |
| 17:34 | <+MittenNinja> | they pretty much are |
| 17:34 | <~Noah> | http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7Ad1AuHriI&feature=g-all-u - XD |
| 17:34 | <+afny> | Alright |
| 17:35 | <+afny> | I got a red bionicle foot from Soren |
| 17:35 | <+afny> | WHAT TO DO |
| 17:36 | <~Noah> | Make half a bionicle leg |
| 17:37 | <+MittenNinja> | I'll get some better shots though |
| 17:39 | <+afny> | hm |
| 17:40 | <+afny> | if I can find a way to attach my mgn heads without a 1x2 plate with bar |
| 17:40 | <+afny> | I can make a super strider |
| 17:40 | <+afny> | I think I'll need randolph for this |
| 17:44 | <+MittenNinja> | https://www.dropbox.com/s/g80mp9fq2nervlp/Iguana%20Vinyl.jpg |
| 17:45 | <+MittenNinja> | https://www.dropbox.com/s/q9s1ho1vyj9zj4x/Iguana%20Comparison.jpg |
| 17:45 | <+MittenNinja> | That dye looks sick on the guanas |
| 17:45 | <@Ceddobear> | Hrm. |
| 17:46 | <@Ceddobear> | Did you dye black dishes there? |
| 17:46 | <+MittenNinja> | those were two of the dishes from the test |
| 17:47 | <+MittenNinja> | I need to do one more coat of the wedges n stuff though |
| 17:47 | <+MittenNinja> | i just wanted to see how theyd look though |
| 17:48 | <@Ceddobear> | Dunno if I like 'em. |
| 17:48 | <@Ceddobear> | Maybe I am so used to sand green. |
| 17:49 | <+MittenNinja> | they have such a military feel with the dye |
| 17:49 | <+MittenNinja> | the sand green (while cool) doesnt have that |
| 17:49 | <+afny> | I think it does |
| 17:49 | <+afny> | I don't know, what kills it for me is the texture |
| 17:50 | <+MittenNinja> | because its not gloss? |
| 17:50 | <@Ceddobear> | Yeah, I guess that's it |
| 17:50 | <+afny> | it's like car paint |
| 17:50 | <+afny> | it's got a speckle to it |
| 17:50 | <+MittenNinja> | thats because it is car paint :p |
| 17:51 | <+afny> | yeah, that's the problem |
| 17:51 | <+afny> | (and it doesn't have the same perfect color balance with every other LEGO color because it wasn't chosen by some intense polish focus group) |
| 17:51 | <+afny> | but mostly it's the texture that bothers me. |
| 17:52 | <+MittenNinja> | I think it looks better on the iguana than it does on the fat snake |
| 17:53 | <@Ceddobear> | Yeah, I think it's ... not a good idea, the colour. |
| 17:53 | <@Ceddobear> | I think you took a great sacrifice for all of us. |
| 17:53 | <@Ceddobear> | And I applaud you for it. |
| 17:54 | <@Ceddobear> | But I now know, the only thing I would dye is T-pieces into black. |
| 17:54 | <+MittenNinja> | the other thing too is that I do want to pick up a gloss black |
| 17:54 | <+MittenNinja> | yeah |
| 17:54 | <+MittenNinja> | try dyeing some pieces black that dont come in black |
| 17:55 | <+MittenNinja> | i might venture into trying some other colors as well |
| 17:55 | <+MittenNinja> | but as a whole I'm not going to be doing this a lot methinks |
| 17:56 | <~Noah> | Yea, I'd be interested in seeing some dyed black pieces |
| 18:05 | <+afny> | So Ced |
| 18:05 | <+afny> | Tell us more about this melee company |
| 18:05 | <@Ceddobear> | Okay. |
| 18:05 | <@Ceddobear> | So. |
| 18:05 | <@Ceddobear> | You know it anyway. |
| 18:05 | <~Noah> | Hokay. |
| 18:05 | <~Noah> | Sew. |
| 18:05 | <@Ceddobear> | It's the underbidding crazy horses. |
| 18:06 | <+afny> | the underbidding 1v1 defenders? |
| 18:06 | <+afny> | ah |
| 18:06 | <+afny> | I'm looking to mooch off your dicebuilds but I don't really like that one |
| 18:06 | <@Ceddobear> | I'll tailor them a bit. |
| 18:06 | <+afny> | Well, I like it, but I don't want to underbid with this company |
| 18:07 | <+afny> | I'm redoing my Ijad/mercs dicebuild because they're down to 7 frames, and two of them are unspecced (the Slammer and the Fuchikoma) |
| 18:07 | <+afny> | and all the Chubs have four weapons each because I made all those new guns |
| 18:07 | <@Ceddobear> | I'll show ya my dicebuild. |
| 18:07 | <+afny> | :A |
| 18:13 | <@Ceddobear> | Dafuq is it with people being unable to deduct a build. |
| 18:13 | <@Ceddobear> | "Hey, what does your lamp holder with 1x1 round plate consist of? Any chance for a laminated, gold-framed building instruction booklet?" |
| 18:14 | <@Ceddobear> | I am on a rage trip. |
| 18:14 | <+afny> | Where is this happening |
| 18:14 | <+afny> | I give people the benefit of the doubt because I can never figure out builds |
| 18:15 | <+afny> | remember when I couldn't figure out how to attach the two halves of a conscript? |
| 18:15 | <+afny> | wow what |
| 18:15 | <+afny> | the SUPER CHUB |
| 18:16 | <+afny> | you can see every part of it |
| 18:16 | <+afny> | unless you don't know how the chest is made |
| 18:16 | <+afny> | I guess |
| 18:16 | <+afny> | hm, okay |
| 18:16 | <+afny> | Ced, you remember that blue/grey Nimrod that you didn't like |
| 18:16 | <+afny> | the one with the giant fuselage missile launcher |
| 18:17 | <+afny> | I'm going to make a zizy-esque direct fire or split range frame for that frame's pilot |
| 18:19 | <@Ceddobear> | Do it. :D |
| 18:19 | <@Ceddobear> | And yes. |
| 18:19 | <@Ceddobear> | The 360? photographed Superchub. |
| 18:22 | <@Ceddobear> | "Alright, just adding a building note here. If you remove the top two blocks and replace them with a clip, you get a shorter leg while removing most, if not all, of the flimsiness. the leg itself will loose a pivot point (a very non vital one) unless you add a 1x1 plate or stud underneath the clip.." |
| 18:23 | <@Ceddobear> | "Alright, just adding a Ced note here. If you remove your overinflated ego and stop giving instructions for your poopy 'frame that neither compares nor entices anyone but your grandma (out of pity), you appear to be a less narcisstic, reality-detached cockmongler." |
| 18:50 | <@Ceddobear> | People that don't call me: My boss. |
| 18:57 | <+afny> | oh god |
| 18:57 | <+afny> | this frame is huge |
| 18:58 | <+MittenNinja> | http://www.flickr.com/photos/mittenninja/7409162732/in/photostream |
| 19:00 | <@Ceddobear> | I WANT TO SHARE MORE TO YOU. |
| 19:01 | <@Ceddobear> | HOLY FUCK YES GREG MARRY ME AND DO THINGS TO ME KEVIN WOULD APPROVE OF. |
| 19:02 | <+MittenNinja> | hahaha |
| 19:02 | <+MittenNinja> | so you like it? |
| 19:03 | <@Ceddobear> | YOu could say so. |
| 19:09 | <+afny> | I love the way the shoulders obscure the head |
| 19:09 | <+afny> | very good overlap |
| 19:11 | <+MittenNinja> | thanks |
| 19:12 | <+afny> | ced |
| 19:12 | <+afny> | I think you'll like this frame |
| 19:12 | <+afny> | it's very... |
| 19:12 | <+afny> | Flying Debris |
| 19:12 | <@Ceddobear> | Oh god. |

| 19:20 | <@Ceddobear> | Back of the Iguana, wheel heels. |
| 19:22 | <+MittenNinja> | ah |
| 19:22 | <+MittenNinja> | nope |
| 19:22 | <+MittenNinja> | just a travis with dishes |

| 19:34 | <+afny> | shit |
| 19:34 | <+afny> | this thing is so ARTICULATE |
| 19:35 | <@Ceddobear> | I think I built a transit gate. |
| 19:43 | <+afny> | pic |
| 19:45 | <@Ceddobear> | Still greeblin'. |
| 19:45 | <@Ceddobear> | It's very Mass Effect-y. |
| 19:48 | <@McMartin> | I bet those 1x1 slopes help for that a lot. |
| 19:48 | | * McMartin isn't good enough yet to make any Star Control-y stuff. |
| 19:50 | <@Ceddobear> | ... Odd. |
| 19:50 | <@Ceddobear> | It's now heavily armed. |
| 19:50 | | * Ceddobear scratches his head. |
| 19:52 | <+afny> | ohhh this is done I think |
| 19:52 | <+afny> | gonna set up the lightbox |

| 19:57 | <@Ceddobear> | Mhmm. Took the multi-launcher off again. |
| 19:57 | <@Ceddobear> | http://www.ced23ric.de/stuff/mf0/gate_5.png |
| 20:05 | <+afny> | pretty neat |
| 20:05 | <+afny> | it could be a station |
| 20:05 | <+afny> | for fleet battles |
| 20:08 | <+afny> | hm |
| 20:08 | <+afny> | HM |
| 20:08 | <+afny> | okay |
| 20:08 | <+afny> | it's three split range |
| 20:08 | <+afny> | one defense |
| 20:10 | <@Ceddobear> | Yeah, it was meant as a station. |

| 20:11 | <+afny> | not 100% sure about the lower legs |
| 20:12 | <+afny> | if I could replace the cylinders with travis and greeble up |
| 20:12 | <+afny> | it might look better |
| 20:12 | <+MittenNinja> | Looks like you had some ME inspiration for that transit gate ceddo |
| 20:13 | <+MittenNinja> | oooo i like that afny |
| 20:13 | <+MittenNinja> | i like that a lot |
| 20:13 | <+afny> | it's mostly just a zizy frame |
| 20:13 | <+afny> | well, the core of it anyway |
| 20:14 | <@Ceddobear> | <@Ceddobear> It's very Mass Effect-y. <-- ;) |
| 20:14 | <+MittenNinja> | still |
| 20:14 | <+MittenNinja> | looks sexy |
| 20:14 | <@Ceddobear> | I LOVE that 'frame, Kevin. |
| 20:14 | <+afny> | thanks |
| 20:15 | <@Ceddobear> | Put a 1x1 round into the legs. |
| 20:15 | <@Ceddobear> | I wanna BUILD one of those. |
| 20:15 | <+afny> | a 1x1 round where? |
| 20:15 | <@Ceddobear> | Gosh, it's so ... hydraulic. |
| 20:15 | <@Ceddobear> | In that open spot between the 2x2 rounds |
| 20:15 | <+afny> | yeah, it doesn't cover up its muscle cylinders |
| 20:15 | <+afny> | it's risque |
| 20:15 | <+afny> | oh, you lose artic if you do that |
| 20:16 | <+afny> | although there are like a billion joints in the legs |
| 20:18 | <@Ceddobear> | looks more solid. |
| 20:19 | <+afny> | you mean the gap between the blue brick and the black plate, right? |

| 20:19 | <+afny> | you can't put anything there, I tried |
| 20:19 | <+afny> | it's not just that you lose artic |
| 20:19 | <+afny> | you can't get the angle you need |
| 20:22 | <@McMartin> | I dig the Lego Mass Relay. |
| 20:22 | <@Ceddobear> | THanks! :) |

| 21:06 | <@randolph> | heh |
| 21:31 | <+afny> | man, everyone is ragging on the one hardmount/one gun arm |
| 21:31 | <+afny> | I didn't know people had strong opinions about that sort of thing |
| 21:32 | <+afny> | how is it supposed to grab those extra magazines if it doesn't have a HAND |
| 21:32 | <+afny> | shiiit |
| 21:50 | <+MittenNinja> | Really? on the Aphrodite? |
| 21:50 | <+MittenNinja> | I love that man |
