02:34 | <@randolph> | I just blew out the dust inside my PC case |
02:34 | <@randolph> | And found a Technic 1/2 pin |

03:22 | < mchnzr> | yo |
03:22 | < mchnzr> | just did a photoshoot of all the stuff I've been building lately |
03:22 | < mchnzr> | I wish someone else took pictures of my stuff for me |
03:23 | < mchnzr> | how ya been? |
03:24 | < afny> | p good |
03:24 | < afny> | not doing much building lately myself |
03:24 | < afny> | just sporadic tinkering |
03:24 | < afny> | are you UPLOADIN? |
03:24 | < mchnzr> | I got a bunch of parts from bricklink, let me do some new stuff |
03:24 | < mchnzr> | yea, it's all on flickr |
03:25 | < afny> | cool, I'll check it out |
03:25 | < afny> | waiting for sc2 videos to buffer :| |
03:25 | < mchnzr> | I still need to get some hinge plates 1x2 locking to make reavers |
03:25 | < mchnzr> | you play or just watch? |
03:25 | < afny> | just watch |
03:25 | < afny> | don't have a computer that can run it currently or I would |
03:26 | < mchnzr> | ah, too bad |
03:26 | < mchnzr> | Next paycheck I'm upgrading for Guild Wars 2 |
03:27 | < afny> | the only thing I've been playing recently is Monster Hunter |
03:28 | < huhwhozat_desktop> | hahaha nice mchnzr |
03:28 | < huhwhozat_desktop> | I like the mobil panzer |
03:28 | < afny> | I'm looking for new pc components for sc2 and adobe shit |
03:28 | < huhwhozat_desktop> | very unique |
03:28 | < mchnzr> | huhwhozat: thanks :) |
03:28 | < huhwhozat_desktop> | makes me think of q-bert :P |
03:28 | < afny> | I like the double barreled one with the green accent |

04:50 | <@randolph> | Hey MK |
04:51 | < Mantisking> | Hey. |
04:52 | < afny> | hey mk, you use technic stuff |
04:52 | < afny> | do you know of a method for attaching those technic fig helmets? |
04:52 | < Mantisking> | Yup. |
04:52 | < afny> | I have (had, can't find) a black one with a black visor that I want to use |
04:52 | < afny> | bt |
04:52 | < afny> | but playing with my teal one |
04:52 | < afny> | I can't find a good way to connect it |
04:53 | < Mantisking> | I've never used them as far as I know. |
04:53 | < afny> | http://www.flickr.com/photos/carterbaldwin/6545637973/ |
04:54 | < afny> | as far as I can tell, this uses one |
04:54 | < afny> | although it may just be two visors, I don't actually know what's behind them |
04:55 | < Mantisking> | Looks like two visors to me. They're probably held on with pressure. |
04:56 | < afny> | yeah, but I mean |
04:56 | < afny> | the thing they're pressed to |
04:56 | < afny> | I think is one of the helmets I'm talking abut |
04:56 | < afny> | +o |
04:57 | < Mantisking> | Could be a helmet facing backwards. |
04:58 | < afny> | the problem is still how to connect them helmet to other elements |
04:58 | < afny> | although I suspect that person's solution was to just put a whole technic fig head in there and attach the ball joint |
04:58 | < Mantisking> | Could be. |

15:29 | < afny> | third try |
15:29 | < afny> | finally got some daylight |
15:32 | < DeathZero> | o/ mooornin |
15:33 | < DeathZero> | o-o pirates! |
15:37 | < afny> | not ENTIRELY designed with mfz in mind |
15:37 | < afny> | but close enough |
15:38 | < DeathZero> | lol. I like it. |
15:38 | < afny> | thanks |
15:38 | < afny> | every time I take a picture of it I find a vastly better pose |
15:39 | < afny> | it's the first "big" mech I've ever built |
15:39 | < afny> | I've built a couple that are almost as tall but not nearly as detailed |
15:40 | | Ced23Ric [me@Nightstar-7a276200.adsl.alicedsl.de] has quit [Ping timeout: 121 seconds] |
15:43 | < DeathZero> | it's got a "I dug this shit up and now I'm gonna raid and pillage" kind of vibe |
15:43 | < DeathZero> | the last part might be mostly due to the pirate flag. o_O |
15:48 | < afny> | dug this shit up is definitely correct |
15:48 | < afny> | and pillaging, too |
15:48 | < afny> | maybe not raiding |
15:49 | < afny> | okay, so the setting as I envision it currently |
15:49 | < afny> | (I'm sleep deprived and highly caffeinated) |
15:49 | < afny> | it's like |
15:49 | < afny> | a very fucked up adaptation of Little Red Riding Hood |
15:49 | < afny> | set in a huge, bombed out city |

15:49 | | mode/#mf0 [+o Ced23Ric] by ChanServ |
15:49 | < afny> | that's a demilitarized zone in a civil war |
15:50 | < afny> | and basically, there's a ton of ruined mechs in the city that both sides abandoned when they fled |
15:50 | < afny> | but the residents of the city are more or less stuck inside it |
15:50 | < afny> | so it's complete chaos, everyone has giant robots, and very little resources are coming in from the outside |
15:51 | < afny> | and this little girl is piloting this robot, and her grandmother is like a scientist or some shit working for one of the factions (probably the proletariat side) |
15:52 | < DeathZero> | nice, sounds interesting. |
15:53 | < afny> | I'll have to scale the mechs down if I want to make more than one or two |
15:54 | < DeathZero> | aww. |
16:05 | < afny> | hm |
16:05 | < afny> | I added a yellow 1x2 plate |
16:05 | < afny> | and changed one of the hinge plates in the chest from white to yellow |
16:05 | < afny> | I think I like it better |
16:07 | < afny> | looks a little too much like a deathscythe |
16:12 | < DeathZero> | Deathscythe ftw. |
16:13 | < DeathZero> | the name DeathZero came from a Gundam I made back in the day, started out as a combination of Deathscythe and Wing Zero. |
16:13 | < DeathZero> | >_> so yea, I'm a big fan of anything that resembles Deathscythe. |
16:14 | < afny> | urgh |
16:14 | < afny> | I dunno, I like gundams with black as a main color, but |
16:14 | < afny> | ...deathscythe. |
16:15 | < DeathZero> | http://s19.photobucket.com/albums/b197/Jinx_Bizzar/?action=view¤t=deathzer o.gif |
16:15 | < DeathZero> | >_> final version of DZ. |
16:22 | < afny> | I'm just not a fan of Wing in general |
16:25 | < DeathZero> | As far as story goes, I'm with ya, wing didn't have a really good storyline |
16:26 | < DeathZero> | Wing was pretty much only good for cool looking Gundams. |
16:26 | < afny> | I'm not even a fan of the gundams |
16:26 | < afny> | they try too hard to be cool, in my opinion |
16:26 | < afny> | I like Leos and the Tallgeese I |
16:27 | < DeathZero> | the talgeese was awesome. |
16:27 | < DeathZero> | aside from the Deathscythe and a few others, I prefer the Universal Century designs more. |
16:27 | < DeathZero> | the storyline is a lot better in my opinion too. |
16:33 | < afny> | urgh |
16:33 | < afny> | reading about Russia |
16:33 | < afny> | that punk band was found guilty, not surprisingly |
16:34 | < DeathZero> | o_O? |
16:35 | < afny> | http://www.guardian.co.uk/music/2012/aug/17/pussy-riot-trial-verdict-live |
16:35 | < afny> | bullshit dictatorship stuff basically |
16:38 | < DeathZero> | looks like it. |
16:48 | < afny> | I need some solid color minifig heads |
16:50 | < DeathZero> | I got ahold of a few to make some turtles. |
16:51 | < afny> | ...turtles? |
16:51 | < DeathZero> | the little turtle things that use minifig heads as legs. |
16:52 | < afny> | got a picture? |
16:52 | < DeathZero> | lemme see if I can find the original pics, I thought it was you that showed em to me originally. |
16:52 | < afny> | it's POSSIBLE, but I can't think of anything with minifig heads for legs |
16:53 | < afny> | it sounds ADORABLE. |
16:54 | < DeathZero> | cant find the flickr of the guy that designed em but this is a pic of one |
16:54 | < DeathZero> | http://www.flickr.com/photos/32482342@N05/6535139111/ |
16:55 | < afny> | oh yeah, I vaguely remember these now |
16:55 | < afny> | they are indeed adorable |
16:55 | < DeathZero> | I figure I can field like 3-4 of em as one frame |
16:55 | < DeathZero> | and have mantis's crab's as 2-3 for one frame |
16:56 | < DeathZero> | then round it out with a Scrambler or two as the command units. |
16:56 | < DeathZero> | I think it'd be a neat little team. |
16:56 | < afny> | they look at least big enough to be 1/2 of a frame each |
16:57 | < DeathZero> | they're little less than half the height of a Landmate. |
16:57 | < afny> | yeah, but scramblers aren't tall either |
16:57 | < afny> | they're LATERAL |
16:57 | < DeathZero> | yea. |
16:57 | < DeathZero> | I was thinking about going with one of the Scrambler mods that has a torso on the top hlf |
16:57 | < DeathZero> | half^ |
16:58 | < afny> | Striders? |
16:59 | < afny> | IMMORTALS? |
16:59 | < afny> | yeah, I like adding stuff to the top of scramblers |
16:59 | < DeathZero> | http://www.flickr.com/photos/38509565@N00/6823659143 heres the orignal flickr I believe. |
17:00 | < afny> | adorable. |
17:00 | < afny> | I couldn't figure out how the Strider went together exactly |
17:00 | < DeathZero> | I made one in black, then decided he needed a friend and made a blue one, now I want red and green ones. |
17:00 | < afny> | but I'm missing parts to make even a vanilla scrambler, so |
17:00 | < afny> | it didn't really matter |
17:01 | < DeathZero> | Yea, I'll have to do an order to get all the peices I'd need. |
17:01 | < DeathZero> | I've got the base of a Scrambler assembled and a couple crab mechs done though. |
17:02 | < afny> | I don't have any 3x3 dishes so I had to get creative |
17:02 | < afny> | my scramblers have such big heads you kind of don't notice the 4x4 dishes on their main body |
17:03 | < DeathZero> | any time I've done an order recently I've been looking at what dishes the person has for sale and getting any non-black ones they've had. |
17:03 | < DeathZero> | I've got some dark blue, blue, and red now, I'd like to find a few green and dark red ones. |
17:04 | < DeathZero> | I also need to get some more of those octagonal things that make up the base of the scrambler and turtle. |
17:05 | < DeathZero> | I've only got black/dark red/blue minifig heads to use right now. |
17:05 | < afny> | hm |
17:05 | < afny> | I need to dig for little flame bits |
17:06 | < afny> | I had them sorted at one point but I don't think that's true anymore |
17:07 | < DeathZero> | flamer :P |
17:12 | < afny> | problem? |
17:12 | < afny> | I found six flame bits AND A STAR WAND |
17:12 | < DeathZero> | lol |
17:13 | < DeathZero> | make a sailor moon O_o |
17:13 | < DeathZero> | or a kirby. o_o |
17:13 | < afny> | sailor moon would be more fun |
17:13 | < afny> | although I could try out one of those spheres with kirby |
17:13 | < afny> | I definitely don't have the colors to make kirby, though |
17:13 | < DeathZero> | aww. |

17:20 | < DeathZero> | my son just closed the door to his play room so that he could lock the cat in there. |
17:20 | < DeathZero> | then went and laid on her. |
17:20 | < afny> | is she alive? |
17:20 | < DeathZero> | yea, she's fine |
17:21 | < DeathZero> | just unhappy now. |
17:21 | < DeathZero> | he's only a year and a half old. |
17:21 | < DeathZero> | so he's not big enough to crush her |
17:21 | < afny> | s'good |
17:24 | < DeathZero> | Yea, long as she don't try to bite him its all good. |
17:24 | < DeathZero> | She's declawed so I don't have to worry about that. |
17:25 | < afny> | :_: |

17:28 | < DeathZero> | o_O |
17:28 | < afny> | I don't think it's a humane practice, that's all |
17:30 | < DeathZero> | ah, she was already declawed when I got her. |
17:31 | < afny> | ah |
17:34 | < DeathZero> | somebody lost her in my mom's neighborhood, never could find the owner so she became mine. |
17:34 | < DeathZero> | aside from the fact that she was declawed, she was too friendly to leave outside where she'd get mauled by some other animal. |
17:35 | < afny> | aw |
17:35 | < afny> | how she just gets sat on by a tiny baby |
17:35 | < afny> | preferable, presumably. |
17:36 | < DeathZero> | yea, most of the time. |
17:44 | < DeathZero> | finally finished ready the shit about whats going on in Russia. |
17:44 | < DeathZero> | oi. what a clusterfuck. |
17:45 | < afny> | yeah |
17:45 | < afny> | Putin is a fun guy |
17:51 | < DeathZero> | Yea, it'll be interesting to see what all comes of this. |
17:53 | < afny> | a bunch of people will go to jail |
17:53 | < afny> | I don't think it's enough to spark a real revolution |
17:53 | < afny> | and it's not like some other power will intervene |
17:53 | < DeathZero> | one can hope |
17:54 | < afny> | it's Russia. |
17:54 | < DeathZero> | I know, I know. |
17:55 | < afny> | still, it's fucked up |
17:55 | < DeathZero> | yep. |
18:37 | < DeathZero> | I swear, the main char from FMP might as well be Heero Yuy. |
18:41 | < afny> | one of the many reasons I didn't make it very far in that show |
18:42 | < afny> | I must admit that mech Mitten posted does look a lot like a Gunbuddy though |
18:42 | < afny> | even the four holes on the head |
18:47 | < DeathZero> | yea |
18:47 | < DeathZero> | as far as FMP goes I believe that was a russian mech. |
18:48 | < DeathZero> | just thought I'd share that with how prominent Russia is in the news today. |
18:48 | < afny> | I've retconned in a soviet flavor for the Gunbuddies after Malcolm pointed out the similarity to soviet tanks |
18:49 | < afny> | so even that fits |
18:51 | < afny> | my faction that uses them is anything but soviet, though |
18:51 | < afny> | they just share a visual aesthetic |
18:51 | < afny> | the Fourth Estate is a bit French, if anything |
18:53 | < afny> | I hope Malcolm finds his SD card before he takes his apart |
18:53 | < afny> | I want to see his take on them |
19:01 | < DeathZero> | he did some gunbuddys? |
19:01 | < afny> | yeah, you can see them vaguely in his phone pics of his recent demo |
19:01 | < afny> | but they're like six pixels in area |
19:02 | < afny> | apparently it was like three scrapheap ones and one factory model |
19:02 | < afny> | I wanna see them because I bet he had some really good ideas for them |
19:03 | < DeathZero> | lol, I wanna see em now too |
19:05 | < afny> | maybe I'll mail him an SD card in exchange for those dirty 2x2 dishes |
19:05 | < huhwhozat> | heheh |
19:05 | < huhwhozat> | I need to get a camera |
19:06 | < huhwhozat> | got my company built, but nothing to take pics with |
19:07 | < DeathZero> | I use a $30 dollar crap digital camera for mine. |
19:07 | < DeathZero> | not the best pics but it works. |
19:08 | < afny> | garage sales sometimes have cheap point and shoots |
19:19 | < huhwhozat> | mm |
19:19 | < huhwhozat> | I'm going to meijer today |

19:58 | < huhwhozat> | these could be very useful for MFZ parts |
19:58 | < huhwhozat> | if they ever get approved |
20:19 | < huhwhozat> | soren should do a CUSOO project for MFZ sets when he gets them finalized |
20:31 | < DeathZero> | I doubt lego would produce it even it it got to 10,000. |
20:31 | < DeathZero> | I don't think MFZ is the type of game that lego would actually put their name behind. |
20:32 | < DeathZero> | then theres the fragility issue of a lot of the frames out there. They tend to dislike sets that break when you're just fiddling with em. |
20:33 | < DeathZero> | even the basic Chub has fragility issues with the waist and at the top of the legs. |
20:39 | < huhwhozat> | blarr :( |
20:39 | < huhwhozat> | stupid corporate guidelines |
20:46 | < DeathZero> | lol. |
20:47 | < DeathZero> | terrain sets would be awesome. |
