http://fractalsoftworks.com/forum/index.php?topic=7921.0 Holy shit, try this out.
00:42
< Ced23Ric>
Aimbot confirmed.
00:43
< Soren>
I just like the freaky feeling of always hitting things.
00:47
< Ced23Ric>
It's weird.
00:47
< Ced23Ric>
I love guessing.
00:47
< Ced23Ric>
It's such a feeling of accomplishment to hit a far range antimatter lance blast coming out of a turn.
00:48
< Soren>
Yeah.
00:48
< Soren>
Iām not going to use it all the time, but itās a very handy piece of UI to have in the toolbox.
01:09
< Ced23Ric>
Until the game has more solid mod support, I am ind of burnt out on it.
01:09
< Ced23Ric>
Because while the mods are cool, the game doesn't really compartmentalize them well.
01:09
< Soren>
mm.
01:09
< Ced23Ric>
One doubled-up file name and the game shits itself.
01:09
< Ced23Ric>
One double-up procedure call and it breaks.
01:10
< Soren>
Yeah, thereās a standard, but not everyone adheres to it.
01:10
< Ced23Ric>
And as long as I cannot integrate Neutrinos to a expanded universe mod, I am sad.
01:10
< Soren>
mm.
01:12
< Soren>
Iām still interested in modding the game, but mostly Iām waiting to see what the trade system is like
01:15
< Soren>
And yes, IāM adhering to the standard.
01:16
< Soren>
Because Iām sane enough to care if it works.
01:16
< Ced23Ric>
I like your brusts of sanity.

They just dispersed for half an hour.

Fucking insane. Some of them didnāt sleep at all, they were fucked-in-half drunk as only the underage can be, and I can smell burning rope.

16:55

but clicked anyway
16:56

and sounds promising. iām still too chicken to try asking the game store here to run a demo there.
16:56
< CedAtWork>
Why's that?
16:56
< CedAtWork>
The problem is, MFZ is hard to monetize for a store.

Hey, Chris.
16:57
< Mantisking>
Talking about getting a functioning group running at a game store?
16:58
< mraichelson>
just in general really. 1- because i was out of gaming at all for sooooooo long that even the idea of there being stores that have space for people to do it kind of confuses me. 2- exactly like you said, explaining to them āhereās this game, itās cool. the rules are free and anyone playing will probably have to buy all their supplies online.ā

well, I can, but it makes me cringe

Why are they at your place?

You go first, Iāve already told my story.
17:28

Nothing real big, it just feels like every time I turn around there's something else getting tossed onto my desk.
17:29

Mhmm. Can't say I have for the last ... 6 years.
17:29
< CedAtWork>
That's how it works, Ray. It's probably true.

I guess I just learnt that anger doesn't make me work faster or generate more time.

What might be best is a big box of Lego to set up a buiild table, then run demos on another table or two.
18:09
< CedAtWork>
Then they read Joshua's interpretation of the CC-SA, laugh at me and shun me forever.

18:10

18:10

So it may just be me.
18:10

18:10

What now?

They had a shitload of lego they poured out to build from.

Has inspired many similar locations in the US.

< Ced23Ric>
Offered promotion, space, projector, asked for a google hangout with MFZ's creators and asked me to make a presentation about wargaming and copyright/copyleft.
