| 17:52 | < afny> | So if I make a rooftop racers thread |
| 17:52 | < afny> | you all have to make racing frames |
| 17:52 | < afny> | with fictitious sponsors |
| 17:56 | | * FerrelFerret accepts the challenge. |
| 17:58 | < afny> | woo |
| 18:20 | < neoaez> | Sweet |
| 18:20 | < neoaez> | I'm in. |
| 18:26 | < afny> | nyargh where is that halfpin |
| 18:26 | < afny> | I just had it in a red 1x1 brick yesterday |
| 18:30 | <+FerrelFerret> | LEGO bin syndrom - Talk to your friends about this serious issue. Or call the crisis help line at 1-800-555-IJUSTSAWTHATHUTCHINGPIECETWOSECONDSAGO for immediate help for you or a loved one. |

| 19:25 | < neoaez> | afny: are you shooting for smaller, lighter frames? Like the size of the landmate and smaller. |
| 19:25 | | * neoaez jots down the LEGO help line # and posts it on the fridge. |
| 19:25 | < afny> | yeah, that sounds about right |
| 19:26 | < afny> | J made it sounds like it was mostly ST-02s/LF-02s |
| 19:26 | < afny> | so I'm starting with one of those |
| 19:26 | < afny> | then I'll branch out |
| 19:26 | < afny> | also, GAH, I found that halfpin |
| 19:26 | < afny> | I was using it to hold up a shark |
| 19:26 | < afny> | and I forgot |
| 19:26 | < neoaez> | Hah |
| 19:27 | < afny> | Yeah, I'm thinking just light, weaponless frames |
| 19:27 | < afny> | I assume there are regulations about the kinds of movement systems allowed |
| 19:28 | < neoaez> | Makes sense. |
| 19:28 | < afny> | probably a time limit on jump jets |
| 19:28 | < afny> | no wheels |
| 19:30 | < afny> | quads are allowed, though |
| 19:30 | < afny> | probably some ghanat racers |
| 19:30 | < neoaez> | really? Not going to make that a different race class? |
| 19:30 | < afny> | I'm sure they are, some places |
| 19:30 | < afny> | but I'm thinking this is a more homegrown scene |
| 19:31 | < afny> | street racing as opposed to nascar |
| 19:31 | < afny> | I'm biased toward multi-form colonies, though |
| 19:31 | < afny> | since my SC setting is heavily integrated |
| 19:33 | < afny> | I don't see why a quad form would have an advantage over a biped, though |
| 19:33 | < afny> | there is probably an upper limit on the power supply/muscle cylinders; like, you couldn't enter the race with an ST-10 |
| 19:34 | < neoaez> | Why can't I remember which thread Joshua mentioned the roof top racing? |
| 19:35 | < afny> | it's in the currency thread in Background |
| 19:35 | < afny> | it was only yesterday I think |
| 19:35 | < afny> | or the day before |
| 19:35 | < afny> | I'd be working on underwater frames if he hadn't said that |
| 19:35 | < neoaez> | I just looked there and must have missed it. |
| 19:35 | < neoaez> | Yeah, those look pretty cool. |
| 19:36 | < afny> | I've got a lego octopus I'm excited to put in my next vignette |
| 19:36 | < afny> | OCTOPUSSSS |
| 19:36 | < neoaez> | Hah. Yeah I have one of those, too. |

| 20:17 | < addking> | damn he's so fast on and off |
| 20:19 | | * afny sighs |
| 20:19 | < afny> | he'll never learn that he needs to lurk if he wants to get anything done on IRC |
| 20:20 | < afny> | I've tried to impart that wisdom |
| 20:20 | < afny> | but it doesn't stick |
| 20:21 | < neoaez> | haha |
| 20:23 | < neoaez> | I've made a race frame based on the core of this: http://www.flickr.com/photos/73344611@N06/7687763882/in/photostream |
| 20:23 | < neoaez> | Gotta get my lightbox up so I take a pic. |
| 20:23 | < neoaez> | I changed the head up to make it look less armored. |
| 20:26 | <+FerrelFerret> | I was thinking about that one too. |
| 20:26 | <+FerrelFerret> | ) |
| 20:26 | <+FerrelFerret> | :) |
| 20:33 | < afny> | I took mine apart to make my race frame |
| 20:34 | < afny> | this one, I mean: http://www.flickr.com/photos/kyanosmoros/7596831660/in/photostream |
| 20:34 | < afny> | though in my fluff that thing probably was a race frame before it started being used in a violent populist movement |
| 20:34 | < afny> | definitely a hot rod |

| 20:42 | <+FerrelFerret> | I love that one |
| 20:42 | <+FerrelFerret> | I think more of a Exo-Frame like ExoSquad. |
| 20:43 | <+FerrelFerret> | :) |
| 20:43 | < afny> | for racing? |
| 20:43 | < afny> | I can imagine some open cockpit designs would be popular |
| 20:44 | < Malcolm> | My plan is to do something more akin to a Group B rally car |
| 20:44 | < Malcolm> | Might even build it in Lancia Martini colours |
| 20:45 | < afny> | heh, I reached for those colors too |
| 20:45 | < afny> | but I think I'll try red/green accents on white |

| 20:46 | < Malcolm> | Ah, like the old Alitalia sponsored Stratos from the 70s |
| 20:48 | < afny> | alternatively, http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20070512172820/transformers/hu/images/8/84 /Ker%C3%A9k_-_Wheeljack_-_transform.gif |
| 20:49 | < Malcolm> | Oh yeah, was he not meant to be based on a Group 5 Beta Montecarlo race car or something? |
| 20:49 | < afny> | To be honest I have no idea, the animation in that show wasn't very consistent |
| 20:50 | < Malcolm> | I loved the Monetcarlo racer as a kid. |

| 21:36 | < neoaez> | still working on the fluff |
| 21:37 | < neoaez> | I wish that half pin was available in chrome. |
| 21:49 | <+FerrelFerret_phone> | Looks good. |
| 21:56 | < neoaez> | Thanks |
| 21:57 | < neoaez> | I wish I had some green. I really don't have much. |
| 21:57 | < afny> | same |
| 21:57 | < afny> | I had to settle for a plate |
| 21:58 | < neoaez> | I do have some lime green, though. Maybe a white and lime green frame next... |
| 21:59 | < neoaez> | Oooo... finally a use for that one lime green droid body =) |
| 21:59 | < afny> | I just made two conscripts for the first post |
| 21:59 | < afny> | wanted to use confirmed canon frames |
| 21:59 | < afny> | after I take pictures of these, I'll try something new |
| 22:01 | < neoaez> | Gotta start getting ready to go out. Steak dinner awaits! |
| 22:01 | < afny> | o/ |
| 22:42 | <@randolph> | hee at riced out frames, afny |
| 22:42 | < afny> | I'm planning one with undercarriage lights |
| 22:42 | < afny> | a ghanat quadruped with green underglow |
| 22:42 | <@randolph> | hahah sweet |
| 22:43 | <@randolph> | that's something I can get behind |
| 22:43 | <@randolph> | Did I mention that a few trips to LA ago, I saw a riced-out Porsche? |
| 22:43 | <@randolph> | It was hideous |
| 22:43 | <@randolph> | Giant spoiler, fatpipe, windshield replacement, racing harness |
| 22:44 | <@randolph> | "R" sticker next to the turbo tag |
| 22:44 | < afny> | glorious |
| 22:44 | <@randolph> | I expect Honda drivers to not have enough sense, but a Porsche? I figured when you had enough to afford one of those, you know you can just buy a better car instead of the aftermarket garbage :p |
| 22:47 | < addking> | used or new porsche? |
| 22:49 | <@randolph> | Should be used, it wasn't a recent model |
| 22:49 | <@randolph> | It was in good condition, otherwise |
| 22:50 | <@randolph> | I expected a young dude or midlife crisis mobile, but it was being driven by an older guy who looked far too responsible |
| 22:54 | < afny> | http://www.mobileframehangar.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=1963&p=15387#p15387 |
| 22:58 | <@randolph> | Le Mechour |
| 22:59 | < afny> | Oui, Parkour, but with property damage! |
| 23:00 | <@randolph> | Thought you said no weapons |
| 23:02 | < afny> | That LIMITS property damage |
| 23:02 | < afny> | but these are still giant robots jumping around on top of buildings |
| 23:02 | < afny> | there's bound to be some breakage. |
