| 02:30 | < neoaez> | Hope the folks on the race circuit have some good insurance =) |
| 02:31 | < afny> | I hope the property owners have insurance |
| 02:31 | < afny> | fuck those guys with the mechs, though, they're crazy |
| 02:31 | | * afny shakes fist |
| 02:31 | <~McMartin> | I got to use my Firelizards yesterday in a game. |
| 02:32 | < neoaez> | That's what I meant |
| 02:32 | <~McMartin> | Very dense cover, though; I've now learned why vehicle-like frames are really inconvenient |
| 02:32 | < afny> | ah, yes |
| 02:32 | < afny> | yeah, that's why I don't actually field my Seeder |
| 02:32 | < afny> | large footprints are annoying |
| 02:36 | < afny> | Oh, you left before I could say how much I like that Veloce |
| 02:36 | < afny> | the back of it especially |
| 02:36 | < neoaez> | Thanks! |
| 02:36 | < neoaez> | That brick just screams "racer" |
| 02:37 | < afny> | so does chrome (lol) |
| 02:37 | < neoaez> | True. True. |
| 02:37 | <~McMartin> | I got some battery powered glowy bricks. |
| 02:37 | <~McMartin> | I should make reactor cores out of them. |
| 02:38 | < afny> | UNDERGLOW |
| 02:38 | < afny> | I'm just gonna use trans-neon green parts to do mine |

| 04:33 | < addking> | ahh, damn i have my racing frame together, but i have no camera. =/ |
| 04:33 | < afny> | you must rectify |
| 04:33 | < addking> | you'd have to pilot it like a crotchrocket. |
| 04:33 | < afny> | THIS PROBLEM |
| 04:33 | < afny> | is it open cockpit? |
| 04:33 | < afny> | open cockpit is in this year. |
| 04:33 | < addking> | no, but it's pretty tiny |
| 04:34 | < addking> | gull wing arms |
| 04:34 | < addking> | with rockets on 'em |
| 04:34 | < addking> | the body is a flipped about conscript or zizy chest more or less |
| 04:35 | < addking> | and i don't have any good racing colors at the moment. |
| 04:35 | < afny> | what |
| 04:35 | < afny> | ANY colors are good racing colors |
| 04:35 | < afny> | the idea is to clash AS HARD AS YOU POSSIBLY CAN |
| 04:36 | < addking> | well, grey, dk grey, black as what i have in the parts i needed to build with |
| 04:36 | < addking> | glow in the dark cheese wedge 'canopy' tho ;P |
| 04:36 | < addking> | or trans-orange maybe. |
| 04:37 | < afny> | that sounds pretty intense. |
| 04:37 | < Mantisking> | Try Orange and Dark Bley, they go well together. |
| 04:37 | < addking> | what up mantis? |
| 04:37 | < addking> | king |
| 04:38 | < afny> | I just realized this is some Clash of Kings shit right here |
| 04:38 | < Mantisking> | Not much. Just farting around before going to bed. |
| 04:38 | < Mantisking> | Storing up some blog posts for the rest of the week. |
| 04:38 | < addking> | and btw, i changed like 15 passwords yesterday, so yes i know i blew up my log-in again, but yeah... |
| 04:38 | < Mantisking> | I'll fix it. |
| 04:39 | < Mantisking> | BTW, Afny, I'm going to blog your work sometime this week. |
| 04:39 | < afny> | woo |
| 04:39 | < afny> | blogosphere |
| 04:39 | < afny> | you should also |
| 04:39 | < afny> | MAKE A ROOFTOP RACER |
| 04:39 | < afny> | you know you want to |
| 04:40 | < Mantisking> | I could mod my Commisar. |
| 04:40 | < Mantisking> | Or just use it as is. |
| 04:40 | < addking> | man, i wish i had a couple of those 1x1 rounds with the hole in the middle, i could make this even tinier/lighter |
| 04:40 | < afny> | maybe give it the old weight reduction |
| 04:40 | < afny> | remove the seats and cupholders |
| 04:41 | < Mantisking> | Or beef up the engine to ludicrous proportions. |
| 04:41 | < afny> | also a viable option, but you're liable to crash into someone's living room if you go over a certain weight |
| 04:42 | < afny> | er |
| 04:42 | < afny> | likely* |
| 04:42 | < afny> | pliable. |
| 04:42 | < addking> | this thing looks like it was scrapped together from MgN arms, conscript body (turned 90 degrees) and cheaper/lighter, no armor conscript legs. |
| 04:43 | < afny> | sounds slick |
| 04:43 | < addking> | eh? |
| 04:43 | < afny> | so like, when you say crotch rocket |
| 04:43 | < afny> | it's actually a head first cockpit design? |
| 04:43 | < addking> | yeah |
| 04:43 | < Mantisking> | Addking, e-mail sent with new password. |
| 04:43 | < addking> | the arms attach above the body. |
| 04:44 | < addking> | Thank you sir, I'll try not to fuck it up again. |
| 04:44 | < afny> | When you said gull-wing arms, I was a little confused |
| 04:44 | < afny> | I imagined flapping. |
| 04:44 | < addking> | well it's got ski's on em? |
| 04:44 | < Mantisking> | Think of them like gull-wing doors on a car. |
| 04:44 | < afny> | Yes, I got the analogy :P |
| 04:45 | < Mantisking> | 'kay. |
| 04:45 | < afny> | but those FLAP, you see. They go up and down. |
| 04:45 | < addking> | yeah these don't flap |
| 04:45 | < addking> | well you could, but it's likely panic as you fall off a roof |
| 04:45 | < Mantisking> | Well, you're certainly making a flap about them. |
| 04:45 | < addking> | *ba-dum, crash* |
| 04:46 | < Mantisking> | Go fix your account. |
| 04:46 | < Mantisking> | :) |
| 04:47 | < afny> | Yeah, that's exactly what I was picturing |
| 04:47 | < afny> | hanna barbera flapping |
| 04:47 | < afny> | as the frame hung in the air before falling off the roof |
| 04:47 | < addking> | hahaha |
| 04:47 | < addking> | nice one MK |
| 04:49 | < addking> | yes, i certainly did. |
| 04:50 | < addking> | fixed. |
| 04:50 | < addking> | now i need to steal an iphone or something for a pic of this frame. |

| 05:29 | <~McMartin> | Wow, the Rescue Robot creator kit is *amazing* |
| 05:29 | | * McMartin drastically increases his supply of attachable bits for articulation |
| 05:29 | < addking> | yeah it's like 17 bucks too. good price |
| 05:30 | | * McMartin just built the main model with it to get the hang of the system |
| 05:30 | <~McMartin> | I can make it do a thumbs-up |
| 05:32 | < addking> | my friend John got one of those, when he was asking me 'what sets have great parts', at 17 bucks you get the light brick too. |
| 05:32 | < addking> | which isn't great for frames, cuz it's pretty big, but ... hey LASERS |
| 05:33 | <~McMartin> | I was thinking "reactor core" station =D |
| 05:34 | < addking> | yeah that'd be cool |
| 05:35 | < addking> | hot damn found my part. |
| 05:35 | < addking> | afny - i'll get an LDD pic at least up. |
| 05:35 | < addking> | assuming it goes together 'nice' enough for LDD |

| 06:55 | < afny> | very ultralight |
| 06:56 | < addking> | is that a good thing? ;) |
| 06:57 | < afny> | I didn't mean it looked ultra light |
| 06:57 | < afny> | I mean it looks like an ultralight aircraft |
| 06:57 | < afny> | and yes |
| 06:58 | < afny> | http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/7f/Ixess_hang_glider_arp.j pg/800px-Ixess_hang_glider_arp.jpg |
| 06:58 | < addking> | yeah exactly. with legs |
| 06:59 | < afny> | everything is better with legs |
| 06:59 | < addking> | I actually can't build it as in the pic, needs those 1x1 rounds with holes. |
| 07:00 | < addking> | well, maybe it'd hold w/o them, but not well |
| 07:01 | < afny> | those are pretty cool, but I think I'd rather have white 1x1 round tiles |
| 07:01 | < afny> | if I had to choose one tiny expensive piece |
| 07:02 | < addking> | yeah. my build here has taps or t-s into cylinder/half-pins/clip (ala conscript) legs. =/ |
| 07:02 | < addking> | i have the guns, but they are on collectable mini-figs. |
| 07:04 | < addking> | octane colors on your conscript? |
| 07:05 | < afny> | I dunno, I just think white with red and green colors are sports care colors |
| 07:05 | < afny> | car* |
| 07:05 | < afny> | but I definitely had some octane stuff in my bin |
| 07:05 | < afny> | or |
| 07:05 | < afny> | OCTAN |
| 07:05 | < afny> | I guess it's called |
| 07:06 | < addking> | that's likely. i don't remember having any of those sets myself |
| 07:06 | < afny> | I feel like I must've got mine used |
| 07:07 | < afny> | I dunno, I think I have a spoiler with a decal |
| 07:07 | < afny> | but I can't find what set it would've come in |
| 07:07 | < afny> | anyway, I'm gonna go to bed |

| 22:05 | < afny> | Hey Malcolm |
| 22:05 | < afny> | Barry Muggs is a busy man |
| 22:05 | < afny> | maybe you should take time out of your schedule and go run a demo for him |
| 22:05 | < afny> | so he can get on with his important life |
| 22:05 | < afny> | I think you're being a bit insensitive to his needs |
| 22:06 | < afny> | I guess he's calling himself "Baz" now? |
| 22:06 | < Malcolm> | I know, I'm a terrible man |
| 22:07 | < Malcolm> | I'll drop my PhD research, moving house, spending time with my wife, and teaching work, and head off to give good old Bazza a right good demoing |
| 22:08 | < afny> | At which time he will tell you |
| 22:08 | < afny> | "Yeah, this game is alright. It could use some more rules, though." |
| 22:08 | < Malcolm> | Then fuck off and play War Machine, would be my considered response |
| 22:09 | < afny> | No one would hold it against you if you threw a punch at that point. |
| 22:09 | < Malcolm> | Hmm, that would go against my pacifist tendencies |
| 22:09 | < Malcolm> | But it may be tempting |
| 22:10 | < Malcolm> | On other matters, I'm torn between designing racing frames and underwater frames |
| 22:10 | < afny> | Maybe you could just knock his fantastic mechs off the table. |
| 22:10 | | Ced23Ric [me@Nightstar-20da7138.adsl.alicedsl.de] has quit [[NS] Quit: ] |
| 22:10 | < afny> | Yeah, I'm having a similar dilema |
| 22:10 | < Malcolm> | I've built one racer, now I want to build more |
| 22:11 | < afny> | I'm gonna do at least one more today, something not conscript based |
| 22:11 | < afny> | a few more and it'll be out of my system (until J posts rules for it) |
| 22:11 | < Malcolm> | I took the easy way out and just based one on the Landmate! |
| 22:11 | < afny> | It looks good, though, very sporty in the chest |
| 22:13 | < afny> | er...hold on, I'm trying to pm you but I suck at IRC |
