| 00:02 | < Dukayn> | Cool. I hate moving. |
| 00:03 | < Dukayn> | Only had to do it twice ever, thankfully. |
| 00:07 | < aimforthetop> | it's been like once a year lately for me. :/ I don't think I've lost a brick from it yet, though! |

| 00:07 | < aimforthetop> | ey, Mits |
| 00:07 | < MittenNinja> | Heyo! |
| 00:08 | < MittenNinja> | whats happening? |
| 00:09 | < Dukayn> | Hey Greg |
| 00:10 | < MittenNinja> | havent seen you on here in ages duke |
| 00:11 | < Dukayn> | Well it was a ghost town, but with people saying they'd be here I thought I'd drop in. |
| 00:11 | < Dukayn> | Also, time zones are a bitch |
| 00:12 | < MittenNinja> | true that |
| 00:13 | < MittenNinja> | when are you gonna suck it up and move closer to us? |
| 00:13 | < Dukayn> | Ahahaha not likely. |
| 00:14 | < Dukayn> | I hated moving to another suburb, I'm not moving country. |
| 00:15 | < Dukayn> | And I love you guys but I wouldn't move just for Lego wargaming :P |
| 00:18 | < MittenNinja> | eh, cant blame me for trying. |
| 00:18 | < Dukayn> | True |
| 00:18 | < MittenNinja> | its just more economical for you to move here than for all of us to move there |
| 00:19 | < MittenNinja> | just sayin :p |
| 00:22 | < MittenNinja> | anywho whats new with you duke? |
| 00:23 | < Dukayn> | Lol. |
| 00:23 | < Dukayn> | New? Our new lounge floor :) |
| 00:23 | < Dukayn> | Replaced the carpet with floating floorboards |
| 00:24 | < Dukayn> | Looks amazing |
| 00:24 | < Dukayn> | Also the missus bought me some of those Hero Factory Chima sets. |
| 00:26 | < aimforthetop> | I misread that as 'China sets' and wondered 'that would be some odd dishware' |
| 00:26 | < Dukayn> | LOL |
| 00:31 | < MittenNinja> | lol |
| 00:31 | < MittenNinja> | anything good in those sets? |
| 00:33 | < Dukayn> | Not for MFZ, really. |
| 00:33 | < Dukayn> | A couple of situationally cool pieces, but not a lot. |
| 00:34 | < Dukayn> | But, they were half price so :) |
| 00:40 | < MittenNinja> | for sure |
| 00:41 | < Dukayn> | Cool looking pieces though |
| 00:42 | < Dukayn> | AFK for a bit, need to get the kids out of ths shower. |
| 00:43 | < MittenNinja> | http://mittenninja.deviantart.com/art/Mech-suit-177173677 i still want fogure out how to build this at mfz scale |
| 00:45 | < aimforthetop> | I've seen that! It was from some kickstarter minis game, but really it's a rip from Maschinen Krieger. |
| 00:45 | < aimforthetop> | And MaK, yeah that's one of my fave mech influences |
| 00:46 | < aimforthetop> | While I haven't nailed the suits yet I have applied some of the concepts to my own work. |
| 00:46 | < aimforthetop> | There's a MaK lego flickr group, awesome stuff but I don't recall any of it being 7p small. time to look again |
| 00:47 | < MittenNinja> | ill have to take a look. |
| 00:51 | < aimforthetop> | http://www.flickr.com/groups/1614654@N24/pool/with/8133600525/ a lot more small stuff since last time I looked! |
| 00:51 | < aimforthetop> | I freaking love MaK (note the posture my Shieldbugs have) |
| 00:55 | < aimforthetop> | Walking deathcans with hatches and stuff, I love it. |
| 00:55 | < Dukayn> | Looks nice |
| 00:55 | < Dukayn> | Lots of Yates in there :) |
| 00:55 | < aimforthetop> | Yates is greats. |
| 00:55 | < Dukayn> | Up |
| 00:55 | < Dukayn> | Yup, too |
| 00:58 | < aimforthetop> | Another similar influence to me is Ashley Wood's World War Robot. |
| 01:00 | < MittenNinja> | lots of cool stuff there. i really want that rounded cockpit though. which i wholly realize may not be possible in this scale |
| 01:02 | < aimforthetop> | http://www.flickr.com/photos/cam-m/8123755603/in/pool-1614654@N24/ |
| 01:02 | < aimforthetop> | That'd be a huge-class Frame at 7p |
| 01:03 | < Dukayn> | Heh yeah |
| 01:04 | < Dukayn> | I'm going to be taking some photos today when the kids have gone to my mum's place. I have a new Landmate I have |
| 01:04 | < Dukayn> | Haven't posted yet |
| 01:05 | < Dukayn> | And a nice little scene involving it and the Archangel locked in combat. |
| 01:06 | < MittenNinja> | yeah ive seen that one, way too big unfortunately. |
| 01:07 | < MittenNinja> | looking forward to seeing it duke! |
| 01:07 | < MittenNinja> | ive noticed that my general size of builds has gone down. |
| 01:08 | < MittenNinja> | anti-size creep |
| 01:08 | < MittenNinja> | it tends to keep things simpler and less parts intesive |
| 01:11 | < Dukayn> | Yeah |
| 01:11 | < Dukayn> | I had a go at a HUNK |
| 01:12 | < Dukayn> | But the legs failed me. Ended up with Landmate style hips and Conscript legs |
| 01:12 | < Dukayn> | Not the best but I have 0 T-pieces left. |
| 01:13 | < Dukayn> | Been thinking of breaking down the Torai Omega to build the Nightingale Mk.II, but not sure the colours would be any good. |

| 01:21 | < aimforthetop> | Hi, shades |
| 01:22 | < Shades_Corvid> | Boo |
| 01:24 | < Dukayn> | Hey shades |
| 01:24 | < Shades_Corvid> | In the last 24 hours I went a bit crazy on the LEGOs purchases, as far as my budget is concerned. Wanted to grab the deals before they expired! |
| 01:24 | < Dukayn> | Heh |
| 01:25 | < Dukayn> | We're in the same boat, but we haven't bought anything useful for MFZ |
| 01:25 | < Dukayn> | Chima Hero Factory sets are 50% off at the moment, so we've now bought all 6 |
| 01:26 | < MittenNinja> | im selling my guitar to fund my lego addiction |
| 01:26 | < Dukayn> | Well, they're 50% off in 1 store we found them in |
| 01:26 | < Dukayn> | LOL really? |
| 01:26 | < Shades_Corvid> | Chima really hasn't caught my attention. Feels kind of a retelling of Thundercats... |
| 01:27 | < Dukayn> | Eh, I don't care about the story or whatever. Their sets look cool :P |
| 01:27 | < MittenNinja> | well the fact that its been sitting in my closet for two years doesnt hurt either |
| 01:27 | < Dukayn> | Yeah that would help |
| 01:27 | < Shades_Corvid> | Most of my purchases was for MFZ, working on a review also as we speak. I agree they do look cool but not THAT cool for me but have fun. |
| 01:29 | < Shades_Corvid> | Outside of the minifigure collection, my LEGO collection is pretty much for MFZ. Part of this is for space but there is MegaBlok Warthog defending said minifigures. |

| 01:29 | < Dukayn> | Hehe those Halo sets are nice. |
| 01:30 | < Dukayn> | They have the Mantis in KMart at the moment. Every time I see it I want to get it. |
| 01:31 | < Dukayn> | AFK, having a shower. |
| 01:31 | | Dukayn is now known as Dukayn[AFK] |
| 01:32 | < Shades_Corvid> | and my cat just made my Target bag full of Umbaran MHCs into a pillow. |
| 01:32 | < aimforthetop> | I have one of the halo weapons pack sets from a few years ago but there's not much utility in that other than arming minifigs. I could give the guns to Frames, but it's like I've trained myself to build them instead over the last year |
| 01:33 | < aimforthetop> | yay, MHCs. Got 3, oughta get more |
| 01:34 | < Shades_Corvid> | I have five total now, thinking of picking up one more next week. |

| 01:36 | < MittenNinja> | so, im trying to set this up wth an irc app on my phone. anyone know what i need to put in for the server info? |
| 01:38 | < Shades_Corvid> | What app? |
| 01:38 | < aimforthetop> | Never done a phone app. irc.nightstar.net ? |
| 01:38 | < MittenNinja> | yeah i tried that |
| 01:39 | < MittenNinja> | simpleirc |
| 01:43 | < Shades_Corvid> | try it without the irc |
| 01:44 | < MittenNinja> | just nightstar.net? |
| 01:44 | < Shades_Corvid> | yeah but I am just guessing |
| 01:45 | < MittenNinja> | nope |
| 01:49 | | Shades [nobody@Nightstar-5f91e246.fios.verizon.net] has joined #mf0 |
| 01:49 | < Shades> | 1 2 3 |
| 01:49 | < MittenNinja> | what did you put in there? |
| 01:50 | < Shades_Corvid> | I used a different app which was free first of all. I put irc.nightstar.net |
| 01:50 | < MittenNinja> | which app did you use? |
| 01:51 | < Shades_Corvid> | mango lite but I am on an ipad |
| 01:51 | < Shades_Corvid> | I also have 6667 in the port but I think that is a user by user thing |
| 01:52 | < Shades_Corvid> | encoding was set to unicode UTF-8 |

| 01:57 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | YUSSSS! |
| 01:57 | < Shades_Corvid> | so maybe it was just the app? |
| 01:57 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | maybe |
| 01:58 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | this is so much nicer than trying to use the webchat on my phone browser |
| 01:58 | | Dukayn[AFK] is now known as Dukayn |
| 01:58 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | guess whos back... |
| 01:59 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | dukeys back... |
| 01:59 | < Dukayn> | :) |
| 01:59 | < Dukayn> | That works better if Shades goes AFK :P |
| 01:59 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | hahaha true |
| 02:00 | < Dukayn> | What app are you using Mits? |
| 02:00 | < Shades_Corvid> | Dukayn and Shades have never been seen in the same room together... |

| 02:00 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | rice irc client |
| 02:01 | < Dukayn> | Ah ok |
| 02:01 | < Dukayn> | Android? |
| 02:01 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | yeah |
| 02:01 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | im anti iphone |
| 02:01 | < Dukayn> | Have you tried AndChat? |
| 02:01 | < Dukayn> | It's what I'm using |
| 02:01 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | i didnt like the app |
| 02:01 | < Dukayn> | Fair enough |
| 02:01 | < Dukayn> | Wha |
| 02:01 | < Dukayn> | Gah |
| 02:02 | < Dukayn> | What's rice like? |
| 02:02 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | i think that was the one that would disconnect if i closed the window |
| 02:02 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | if i cant use my phone like a flash drive i overpaid for it |
| 02:02 | < Dukayn> | Hmm ok. I can switch out using the app switcher without issue, or by pressing Home. |
| 02:03 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | i would hit home and then it would disconnect me |
| 02:03 | < Dukayn> | That's odd. |
| 02:03 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | maybe its an android thing? |
| 02:03 | < Dukayn> | What phone? |
| 02:03 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | nexus 4 |
| 02:03 | < Dukayn> | Hmm. My Galaxy Nexus and Galaxy Tab are fine with it. |
| 02:03 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | huh weird |
| 02:03 | < Dukayn> | Indeed |
| 02:04 | < Dukayn> | I'm on my tab right now. |
| 02:04 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | eh oh well, this works just fine :) |
| 02:04 | < Dukayn> | Cool, cool. |
| 02:04 | < Shades_Corvid> | I can't get a smart phone because of my job. |
| 02:04 | < Dukayn> | Man, I wish they had LDD for Android., |
| 02:04 | < Dukayn> | What job Shades? |
| 02:04 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | what do you do? |
| 02:04 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | no kidding |
| 02:05 | < Shades_Corvid> | I work at a shipyard, the one that makes USA aircraft carriers. |
| 02:05 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | ah |
| 02:05 | < Dukayn> | Cooool |
| 02:05 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | thats kinda badass |
| 02:06 | < Dukayn> | "Me? I build fucken warships." |
| 02:07 | < Dukayn> | :P |
| 02:07 | < Shades_Corvid> | Well, building warships means you can't have a camera inside the fence. |
| 02:07 | < Shades_Corvid> | National Security and all that. |
| 02:10 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | you could get a smartphone and then rip out the camera? |
| 02:10 | < Dukayn> | Bit hard to do. |
| 02:11 | < Shades_Corvid> | Still against policy, trust me on this. |
| 02:11 | < Dukayn> | You could get a smartphone and not take it to work :P |
| 02:11 | < Dukayn> | Surely owning one personally is allowed |
| 02:13 | < Dukayn> | Ruh roh, Shades talking about his job has gotten him nabbed by the NSA |
| 02:14 | < Shades_Corvid> | True but seems pointless to have it then. |
| 02:14 | < Shades_Corvid> | No, that was my horrible credit. |
| 02:15 | < Shades_Corvid> | Could most likely build frames at the shipyard... |
| 02:15 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | lol |
| 02:15 | < Dukayn> | Heh |
| 02:16 | < Dukayn> | I have officially been appointed protector of my daughter's Octonauts. |
| 02:16 | < Shades_Corvid> | just saying |
| 02:17 | < Shades_Corvid> | octopus explores? |
| 02:17 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | something like that |
| 02:19 | < Shades_Corvid> | and shouldn't she protect her own octonauts? |
| 02:20 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | OMG |
| 02:20 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | i figured it out! |
| 02:20 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | hang on |
| 02:21 | < Shades_Corvid> | o_0? |
| 02:24 | < Dukayn> | She normally does but she's leaving soon, so apparently it's now my job. |
| 02:24 | < Dukayn> | I'm guessing he's figured out a certain design conundrum |
| 02:24 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | i think i figured out how to pull of a frame design ive been wanting to do for awhile |
| 02:25 | < Dukayn> | ^ see? I'm psychic |
| 02:25 | < Dukayn> | And was not at all involved in an earlier conversation regarding that topic... |
| 02:26 | < Shades_Corvid> | I think it involves the shipyard... |
| 02:26 | < Dukayn> | Heh |
| 02:28 | < Dukayn> | Man, moving my PC out of the lounge has been kinda great. |
| 02:33 | < Shades_Corvid> | No prying eyes? |
| 02:33 | < Shades_Corvid> | Alright, blog post about Harry Potter fandom done, now to do a review. |
| 02:34 | < Dukayn> | LOL |

| 02:36 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | shitty picture but it gets the point across |
| 02:36 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | thats the rough torso |
| 02:36 | < Mantisking> | Wow, lookit all da people! |
| 02:37 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | sup mantis? |
| 02:37 | < Mantisking> | Just got home from dinner and food shopping. |
| 02:37 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | nice |
| 02:38 | < Dukayn> | Looks good Greg |
| 02:38 | < Dukayn> | WB MK |
| 02:38 | < Shades_Corvid> | It about the whole 'We Rise Again' since the announcement of the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them movie. |
| 02:38 | < Dukayn> | Oh right |
| 02:38 | < Dukayn> | I'm not fandom-aware enough to have noticed] |
| 02:39 | < Shades_Corvid> | I have a friends that post on facebook about that kind of stuff |
| 02:39 | < Shades_Corvid> | and my blog is more about my life in general then just a MFZ blgo. |
| 02:40 | < Dukayn> | I have a friend who writes copious amounts of fandom slashfic but she keeps that stuff separate from FB. |
| 02:42 | < Shades_Corvid> | Harry/Draco porn... |
| 02:43 | < Dukayn> | All sorts. And not just Potter. Sherlock, Inception, bunch of others I'm sure. |
| 02:44 | < Shades_Corvid> | I am sure, I was just trying to put a striking image in peoples minds. |
| 02:44 | < Shades_Corvid> | Like cute bows on Chubs. |
| 02:46 | < Shades_Corvid> | and Hey Mantis! Going to go rip you off again. |
| 02:46 | < Mantisking> | Yeah? |
| 02:46 | < Mantisking> | Considering how much I've been ripping off everybody else lately... |
| 02:46 | < Shades_Corvid> | writing more reviews. |
| 02:47 | < Mantisking> | Cool. I'm going to mention your blog in an upcoming post. |
| 02:47 | < Shades_Corvid> | is Dark Cloud Blogs. Oh wow, thank you sir. |
| 02:48 | < Mantisking> | Is it someone else's blog and your just guest posting? |
| 02:50 | < Dukayn> | I was going to do a blog. But then I realised I had nothing to blog about. |
| 02:51 | < Mantisking> | Duk, That would be kind of boring. :-) |
| 02:52 | < Shades_Corvid> | It is mine, originally it was two blogs (plans for others) that were referred to collectivly as Dark Cloud Blogs, I even have a Facebook and twitter for it. Recently I condensed the two blogs into just one. |
| 02:52 | < Shades_Corvid> | So calling it Blogs is just an old habit. |
| 02:52 | < Mantisking> | SC, okay. |
| 02:53 | < Shades_Corvid> | One was for my Brief Movie Reviews and the other about being my life in general. |
| 02:54 | < Mantisking> | Although it is surprising how much crap you can find to talk about when you're writing a blog. |
| 02:54 | < Dukayn> | Heh |
| 02:54 | < Mantisking> | I'm sitting on 29 draft posts right now. |
| 02:55 | < Dukayn> | Haha jeez. Get to writing already :P |
| 02:55 | < Dukayn> | Cos y'know, you don't post enough blog posts already |
| 02:56 | < Shades_Corvid> | OH! So something interesting at Toys R Us today. It a new 'construction set' mini figure line. I should have taken a picture or written down the name. |
| 02:57 | < Shades_Corvid> | I wanted to get one but 8 dollars for a mini fig is a but much, specially when I was getting 6 poly bags already. Anyways, it is basically a minifigure that turns into a brick. |
| 02:58 | < Mantisking> | Tekna Knights? |
| 02:58 | < Shades_Corvid> | yes! |
| 02:59 | < Dukayn> | Gtg guys, wife has come back from shopping. TTYL. |
| 02:59 | | Dukayn [Dukayn@Nightstar-71df254a.iinet.net.au] has quit [[NS] Quit: Bye] |
| 02:59 | < Mantisking> | I saw them too. At $6 a figure it seemed a little steep. |
| 03:00 | < Mantisking> | Later, Duk. |
| 03:03 | < Shades_Corvid> | I liked their weapons, could work for MFZ, The concept might be fun to play with, might help with the transforming frames too. I will most likely get one to play with in the future when I am not buying anything else. |
| 03:03 | < Mantisking> | Yeah, I was looking at the weapons too. |
| 03:08 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | BAH I NEED MOAR PIECES! |
| 03:09 | < Shades_Corvid> | story of MFZ |
| 03:17 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | ah well. |
| 03:17 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | another time |
| 03:17 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | now i can keep messing with those landscripts |
| 03:18 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | ...or conmates |
| 03:18 | < MittenNinja[phone]> | ...whatever |

| 05:09 | < Mantisking> | Just me and MittenNinaj chatting about blogging at the moment. |
| 05:09 | < MittenNinja> | heya thad |
| 05:09 | < Thaddeus> | Gotcha. Hello! |
| 05:09 | < MittenNinja> | that wouldnt necessarly be a bad thing |
| 05:10 | < MittenNinja> | i know there are plenty of people that are skeptical about buying off brand bricks |
| 05:10 | < MittenNinja> | and there aren't a lot of reviews of them online |
| 05:10 | < MittenNinja> | especially in regards to the MFZ community |
| 05:10 | < Thaddeus> | Ok, gotta go. |
| 05:10 | < MittenNinja> | later Thad! |
| 05:11 | < MittenNinja> | good to see you |
| 05:12 | < Mantisking> | Later, Thad. |
| 05:12 | < MittenNinja> | by no means does that mean you should limit yourself to doing that though |
| 05:12 | < MittenNinja> | But there is nothing wrong with that being a staple |
| 05:12 | < Mantisking> | Heh. |
| 05:13 | < Mantisking> | It just seems to take me a long time taking pictures of all the parts in the set. |
| 05:13 | < Mantisking> | And we're heading into poor weather season which is going to cut down on my camera time. |
| 05:14 | < MittenNinja> | Something to keep in mind though, is that while good, edited and well shot pictures are nice, and improve the aesthetic, they aren't technically necessary for something like that |
| 05:14 | < Mantisking> | True. |
| 05:14 | < MittenNinja> | as long as someone can see what the parts are, it's still just as useful |
| 05:15 | < Mantisking> | While there are lists out there for Lego sets -- Bricklink, etc. -- it may be hard to find lists for Clone brand sets. |
| 05:15 | < MittenNinja> | exactly |
| 05:16 | < Mantisking> | I was kinda surprised to see you take a foray into Clone bricks. |
| 05:17 | < MittenNinja> | there are some really useful pieces that aren't available otherwise |
| 05:17 | < MittenNinja> | I don't think I'd ever go as far as to build a frame strictly out of off brand stuff |
| 05:18 | < MittenNinja> | but i have nothing against using a part here or there to achieve somethign different |
| 05:18 | < Mantisking> | Oh, check this. http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?i=5954852 |

| 05:19 | < MittenNinja> | not bad |
| 05:19 | < Mantisking> | That's the torso based on your Apollo. |
| 05:19 | < MittenNinja> | if you angled the shoulders up a bit you could make the arms a little less "gorilla" like |
| 05:20 | < Mantisking> | The angle is dictated by the handlebars. |
| 05:24 | < MittenNinja> | right, but if you raise the handlebars up a bit and change their orientation, you can change how the shoulders are angled |
| 05:26 | < MittenNinja> | Oh, I know why |
| 05:26 | < MittenNinja> | you have the wrong clip plates |
| 05:26 | < Mantisking> | Yup. |
| 05:26 | < MittenNinja> | aha |
| 05:27 | < Mantisking> | I like the "gorilla" look anyway. :P |
| 05:31 | < Mantisking> | Lego Maersk Triple E set. http://toysnbricks.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=17&t=9385 |
| 05:31 | < MittenNinja> | that looks like it has lots of useful pieces |
| 05:35 | < Mantisking> | I like that Maersk blue. I really should have bought those recent Maersk sets to get some. |

| 05:48 | < MittenNinja> | yeah |
| 05:48 | < MittenNinja> | its a nice color |
| 06:04 | < Mantisking> | Time to clean up and go to bed. |
| 06:04 | < Mantisking> | I've been fighting with a torso design all night and I'm still no closer to getting it to work. |
| 06:04 | < MittenNinja> | yeah ill be doing the same soon |
| 06:04 | < MittenNinja> | yeah, i made a breakthrough earlier |
| 06:05 | < MittenNinja> | only to run into more issues |
| 06:11 | < Mantisking> | Can't wait to see it. |
| 06:13 | < Mantisking> | G'night. |
