14:40
< afny>
It's possible that you don't see a yen symbol
14:40
< afny>
but I see a yen symbol.
14:41
< DeathZero>
o_o
14:41
< afny>
DeathZero: \o/
14:41
< DeathZero>
no, I see \ o /
14:41
< DeathZero>
without spaces
14:41
< afny>
I still see a yen symbol
14:41
< afny>
is it a backslash for you?
14:41
< afny>
?
14:41
< DeathZero>
yer.
14:42
< afny>
what the fuck colloquy
14:42
< afny>
I'm going to restart
14:42
< DeathZero>
a forward slash, a lowercase o and then a backslash
14:42
< afny>
all this yen symbols
14:42
< afny>
it's a conspiracy.

14:51
< DeathZero>
i went and looked those up while you were restarting. lol.
14:51
< DeathZero>
\o/ does this still come up as yen?
14:51
< afny>
what the fuck
14:51
< afny>
yes it does.
14:51
< DeathZero>
bah.
14:51

14:52
< DeathZero>
that wasn't supposed to be yen
14:52
< afny>
yeah I figured
14:52
< DeathZero>
\ does that show up as a slash?
14:54
< afny>
nope
14:55
< DeathZero>
how about this one /
14:56
< afny>
yeah
14:56
< afny>
that works
14:56
< DeathZero>
hmm \o/ work like this?
14:58
< afny>
YEN
14:58
< afny>
clearly this is just the internet's way of telling me to move all my savings to the yen
14:59
< huhwhozat>
this thing amuses me
15:00
< DeathZero>
lol, your pc no like forward slash.
15:00
< DeathZero>
btw, whozat, I got your message after you left yesterday
15:01
< DeathZero>
the local lego store is nice, but I was less than impressed with its Pick a Brick wall.
15:01
< huhwhozat>
mkay
15:01
< huhwhozat>
I'm meaning to visit it sometime soon-ish
15:02
< huhwhozat>
been ages since I've been in a lego store :P
15:02
< huhwhozat>
I wonder if they'd let people demo MF0 in-store, if it were to be arranged with management....
15:03
< DeathZero>
dunno, its not a real large store.
15:04
< DeathZero>
that'd be pretty cool though.
15:04
< afny>
I sort of doubt it
15:04
< afny>
since it's not an official lego game
15:04
< afny>
I'm like 99% sure they wouldn't allow it
15:04
< DeathZero>
yea.

That's a shame. True, it's not an official Lego game, but we -would- be advertising their products.

Well I don't know for sure that they wouldn't let you do a demo at a lego store, but it just seems very unlikely
15:24
< afny>
Especially once the book is published, I mean, the themes are a little dark for lego's target audience
15:25
< DeathZero>
Theres always a chance, albeit a very very small one.

< huhwhozat>
sage was the one running the games via maptool, yes?
18:45
< huhwhozat>
I wouldn't mind a game later today if he/anyone else could run it
18:45
< afny>
Yeah, but he released the campaign
18:45
< afny>
I think anyone who doesn't have router issues can host
18:45
< afny>
although as I discussed with him, I think we'd benefit from setting up the maps in a different way
18:46
< afny>
currently all the maps are designed ahead of time, I assume by him, and all the terrain can only be edited by the DM
18:46
< huhwhozat>
I'll have to take a look at the cmpgn; I d/l'd it but haven't touched it yet
18:46
< afny>
but what I proposed is all the cover be put in a resource folder, and all the players place it cooperatively before the game starts, vetoing placement if they see fit
18:46
< afny>
more like a real game
18:46
< huhwhozat>
I like that idea
18:47
< afny>
it prevents maps from heavily favoring the defender
18:47
< afny>
as he points out this can be a little tough on the defender if they're inexperienced, but I think that's part of the game
18:47
< huhwhozat>
true
18:48
< huhwhozat>
I'd def. be up for a game later, have to make a couple tokens tho.
20:13
< huhwhozat>
why yes, I did just create a frame using only the parts from Sebulba's Pod Racer mini set
20:36
< afny>
I need to get one of those sets
20:36
< afny>
need some pink lightsaber blades
20:36
< afny>
and I could get some orange and blue going
20:37
<@randolph>
afny: I thought the point for his campaign *was* to favor the defender, since they're supposed to gang up against his nefarious alien threat
20:37
< afny>
Maybe that's why the maps are designed that way, but I'm not talking about campaign games
20:38
< afny>
I dunno if the maps were designed with the campaign in mind or not, but they aren't "balanced" for normal play
20:38
<@randolph>
Ah ok, if it's just in general, I thought someone else was also running them
20:38
<@randolph>
(ferret?)
20:38
< afny>
He is, but I haven't played with him
20:38
< afny>
it seemed like he was using a different system entirely

<@randolph>
ah
21:01
< afny>
once I figure out how to generate maps using repeating textures
21:01
< afny>
I'm gonna make a campaign that's like
21:02
< afny>
the map is just the boundary and a solid color
21:02
< afny>
and the terrain is separate
21:02
< afny>
and I'm going to do everything in bright, solid colors with light outlines
21:03
< afny>
I'm thinking in the style of Risk: Black Ops

@afny: I can only apologise for adding notes to your photos
22:21
< afny>
heh
22:21
< afny>
I don't mind
22:21
< afny>
I've already taken that guy apart, he was ridiculous
22:22
< Malcolm>
It would have been hilarious to put two black dots in the middle of the shoulders
22:22
< afny>
or little plastic googly eyes
22:22
< Malcolm>
That would have been the business
22:23

Joking aside, I think the Gunbuddy is totally going to be the core frame for one of the comanies in the next demo game I facilitate
22:26
< afny>
awesome

me too

I just found out today that the tiny used video game store downtown does warhammer
22:26
< afny>
I usually hate everyone from my town with a burning passion, but I might venture out and try to demo there

< Malcolm>
Where is it that you stay?
22:40
< afny>
A tiny shitty town in upstate New York
22:42
< Malcolm>
Ah, I have a colleague from Buffalo who complains bitterly about the definitions of 'upstate New York.' She seems to have a very distinct geographical grudge which is somewhat opaque to me
22:42
< afny>
I did a year of school in Buffalo
22:42
< afny>
I'm about an hour east of there now
22:43
< afny>
I have the same grudge.
22:43
< Malcolm>
Heh
22:44
< afny>
It's mostly because people either assume we're from the city, or people from the city assume we're from Pougkeepsie or some other place just north of the city, when in reality it's a huge fucking state
22:44
< afny>
...but a lot of it is just because people from any part of New York like to complain bitterly about anything.
22:46
< Malcolm>
Well, the only places I've really been to in the upstate area are Ithaca and Syracuse, so my experience is sadly limited
22:46
< DeathZero>
>_>
22:47
< afny>
I don't know Syracuse very well, but Ithaca is my favorite place ever
22:47
< afny>
Once I figure out the logistics I plan on moving there
22:47
< afny>
That's actually where the other gaming store I want to demo at is located
22:48
< Malcolm>
Again, I sadly didn't spend enough time there
22:48
< Malcolm>
But I know many people who speak very highly of it
22:48
< afny>
In all honesty I haven't spent all that much time there either
22:48
< afny>
but I'm picking up what it's putting down
22:50
< DeathZero>
New York's one of the few places I've never been. :/
22:50
< afny>
It's definitely not the worst state.
22:51
< afny>
it's kind of a red state with blue cities, though
22:52
< afny>
it's just that the blue city is so big, it doesn't matter.
22:52
< DeathZero>
lol.
22:53

I just made a chain mine :D
22:54
< afny>
did you get some of those strings with bars?
22:54
< DeathZero>
I did, they turned out waaay too long.
22:54
< afny>
you could cut and retie them
22:55
< DeathZero>
I could, but I went with one of the shorter strings with studs on the end instead.
22:55
< DeathZero>
the lack of bars actually worked better I think.
22:55
