| 01:40 | <@randolph> | Hey MN |
| 01:44 | <+MittenNinja> | sup randy |
| 01:45 | <@randolph> | Just got home |
| 01:46 | <@randolph> | Oh! |
| 02:25 | < afny> | wow |
| 02:25 | < afny> | I hope Tycho actually writes an MFZ short story |

| 03:17 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | Hello, all. |
| 03:17 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | So happy, just been building cover. Now I can demo. :) |
| 03:22 | <@randolph> | Hey FF |
| 03:23 | <@randolph> | That's cool |
| 03:23 | <@randolph> | Any neat cover to show off? |
| 03:26 | | MittenNinja [NSwebIRC@Nightstar-eca6a0cb.co.comcast.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 121 seconds] |
| 03:35 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | Not really. |
| 03:36 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | Bought a bunch of dark bley at the LEGO store. |
| 03:36 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | Didn't know there was a LEGO store in the mall close to me. Was super stoked when I found out. |
| 03:37 | < neoaez> | Which mall? |
| 03:43 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | Grapevine Mills |
| 03:43 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | In Grapevine, TX |
| 03:45 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | I'm going to go back after work tomorrow and get some more. Lots of dark bley, white, and red 1x2 bricks |
| 03:45 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | Also had some transfer neon green 2x2 round bricks too |
| 03:47 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | Trans, not transfer... |
| 03:47 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | Stupid phone. :/ |
| 03:48 | <@randolph> | wow neon green 2x2 round? |
| 03:48 | <@randolph> | that's awesome |
| 03:48 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | I'm just happy cause now I have plenty of 1x2 bricks to make cover. |
| 03:49 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | The neon will be great for stations. |
| 03:49 | <@randolph> | You'd be surprised how quickly the 1x2s go :| |
| 03:49 | <@randolph> | Especially if you get multiple colors |
| 03:50 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | I have a lot of walls 3 bricks high and haven't even used half of one of the cups. :) |
| 03:50 | <@randolph> | Oh, I've been building them at least 5 |
| 03:50 | <@randolph> | 3 looked kinda weird |
| 03:51 | <@randolph> | (next to a chub-sized frame) |
| 03:51 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | For demo purposes ill be using 3 high walls |
| 03:51 | <@randolph> | It's like crotch height |
| 03:51 | <@randolph> | nod |
| 03:51 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | With few taller |
| 03:51 | <@randolph> | I want to make some "sandbag cover" out of 1x2 rounded bricks |
| 03:52 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | Yeah, but sandbags don't really get built that high |
| 03:53 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | 3 bricks is somewhere in the range of 7 to 8 feet. At 7p at least |
| 03:55 | <@randolph> | I figure the frame ones do |
| 03:55 | <@randolph> | At least on the UMFL training courses |
| 03:58 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | Be back in bit. Got to drive for a bit. :) |
| 04:06 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | Back |
| 04:06 | < neoaez> | Hmm... |
| 04:06 | < neoaez> | I'm in Arlington tomorrow, but its still half an hour to Grapevine. If only I could come up with a reason to be there for work tomorrow... |
| 04:07 | < neoaez> | I drove by North Park today and was tempted to stop. |
| 04:07 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | That's where I first went a few months back |
| 04:08 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | I work in Alliance, so it's not too far. |
| 04:09 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | But then again, everything is about 30 minutes away in DFW. lol |
| 04:27 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | In the rules it says cover loses 6 bricks for a hit. Does a 1x2 back count as 1 or 2 bricks for this? |
| 04:29 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | Cause, if we count the physical bricks and not the size, cover made with larger bricks would disappear much faster. |
| 04:36 | <@randolph> | 1 brick |
| 04:36 | <@randolph> | yes. |
| 04:36 | <@randolph> | Soren described his "dickwad wall" entirely made of 1x2 plates |
| 04:37 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | Hmm, but plates aren't bricks. :/ |
| 04:37 | <@randolph> | You remove "6 pieces of LEGO" |
| 04:37 | <@randolph> | A LEGO tree counts as one brick/piece. |
| 04:38 | <@randolph> | These are the rules, the terminology isn't really relevant at this stage except for the purposes of clarity |
| 04:38 | <@randolph> | Whatever you want to call them, an abritrarily-sized, contiguous, non-conglomerate LEGO object is removed |
| 04:38 | <@randolph> | x6 |
| 04:40 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | I see, just reread the rules... |
| 04:41 | <@randolph> | that's why the cover rules threads talk about "use larger bricks for flimsy cover, smaller bricks for hardier cover, or mix it" |
| 04:44 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | Got it. Didn't catch that when I read them the first time. And I haven't read through the new releases rules section yet. Just the fluff. :) |
| 04:45 | <@randolph> | nod |
| 04:46 | <@randolph> | I meant in the forums, but there's a lot to catch up on if you only follow irregularly |
| 04:49 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | Most of the rules make sense to me, from the first read through, and I kept up with the rules discussions. I guess I just missed the talk on cover. |
| 04:51 | <@randolph> | Gotcha |
| 04:51 | | KarolineDianne [NSwebIRC@Nightstar-35371e3c.hstntx.sbcglobal.net] has joined #mf0 |
| 04:51 | < KarolineDianne> | Well if it isn't the MOF0S |
| 04:51 | <@randolph> | There's certainly this undercurrent of grousing about the balance implications of bricksize determining cover effectiveness, but... well, a) cover is equally available and b) terrain setup is by mutal veto |
| 04:51 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | Basically, my mind saw 3 bricks tall and got stuck on the bricks part. Over looking the whole pieces, not bricks, statement. |
| 04:52 | <@randolph> | Hey KD |
| 04:52 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | Another Texan! |
| 04:52 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | Hey |
| 04:57 | < KarolineDianne> | :O |
| 04:59 | < KarolineDianne> | What's this about cover? |
| 05:00 | <@randolph> | Don't judge a brick by it. |
| 05:00 | < huhwhozat_desktop> | kwahahahhaa |
| 05:01 | < huhwhozat_desktop> | hey, I'm a TExan too! I just don't live there any more |
| 05:02 | <@Soren> | Ah, this searing pain! I smell puns in the air. |
| 05:04 | < KarolineDianne> | I don't get it. |

| 11:18 | <@Ced23Ric> | Hey, randolph! |
| 11:18 | <@Ced23Ric> | I know you read the backlog, so here goes. |
| 11:18 | <@Ced23Ric> | I received to letters this morning. One for you, one for Mittens. I apparently switched the addresses around and it took until now for them to get back to me. |
| 11:19 | <@Ced23Ric> | I sent them out again, with correct and double-checked addresses, and added some travis bricks and stickers to yours to make up for the delay. |
| 11:19 | <@Ced23Ric> | Mittens gets some more tiles and slopes in sand green to his 1x2 tiles (and stickers, too). |
| 11:19 | <@Ced23Ric> | I am sorry for that. :| |

| 15:58 | < Malcolm> | It's only taken me the best part of half a day to realise that |
| 16:04 | < huhwhozat> | and apparently Tycho is interested in writing a short story for the universe. Cool :D |
| 16:07 | < Malcolm> | Not an area of interest for me, but cool nonetheless. |
| 16:08 | < Malcolm> | If it were Harlan Ellison writing a story, then I might be really interested! |
| 16:08 | < Malcolm> | But, it's great to get that kind of publicity |
