| 13:41 | < Rex> | Heyo |
| 13:42 | < locas> | yo |
| 13:43 | < Rex> | Watching Aura Battler Dunbine. |
| 13:45 | < locas> | that's ALMOST mobile suit gundam |
| 13:45 | < locas> | I haven't seen it though |
| 13:45 | < locas> | I haven't seen much tomino stuff outside of gundam |
| 13:45 | < locas> | I've seen part of overman king gainer |
| 13:46 | < Rex> | It's rather boring. |
| 13:47 | < locas> | I honestly had never heard of it |
| 13:48 | < Rex> | I like the idea of bug mechs and what not, but it's rather old and moves too fast without fulling hitting the points it's trying to. |
| 13:49 | < Rex> | I don't like the "present day main character is thrown into the past or another world" thing, though. |
| 13:50 | < locas> | that was a popular trope for a while |
| 13:50 | < Rex> | And honestly, when you're abducted and forced to fight for someone, then another person comes around and tells you that you shouldn't be fighting for the abductor because he's a power hungry bad dude...it's really obvious he's bad, yet the protagonist is just like "whatever, lady, I get to pilot this beetle looking fucker." |
| 13:51 | < Rex> | The 80's wasn't exactly the pinnacle of storytelling, though. |
| 15:32 | < Rex> | So...can I call you Emma? |

| 18:27 | < locas> | Rex, you can |
| 18:27 | < locas> | I as not here at all |
| 18:27 | < locas> | I was downtown and forgot to shut my computer :P |
| 18:28 | < locas> | (Emma does ping me for reference) |
| 18:39 | < mraichelson> | O_o |
| 18:39 | < locas> | 8_8 |

| 19:42 | < Ced23Ric> | THE PARTS ARRIVED. |
| 19:42 | | * mraichelson hurls confetti |
| 19:43 | < Ced23Ric> | Better than straight up hurling. |
| 19:46 | < mraichelson> | well, i did eat a lot of confetti at lunchtime, and... |
| 19:47 | < Ced23Ric> | How are your sales going, anyway? |
| 20:02 | < mraichelson> | oh sure, right for the throat. :) |
| 20:02 | < mraichelson> | quiet, but itās summer, outdoors, etc. |
| 20:02 | < mraichelson> | sent two to scotland yesterday. |
| 20:02 | < mraichelson> | exciting. |
| 20:15 | < FlakManiak> | Okay, okay. This is very exciting. This thing I'm designing is working out perfectly. |
| 20:16 | < FlakManiak> | I started to assemble it in my head right after waking up (after doing some mental assembly of another thing in a dream). |
| 20:16 | < FlakManiak> | It's not for MFZ, but... |
| 20:34 | < mraichelson> | not for mfz? begone with this heresy! |
| 20:34 | | FlakManiak [Erik@Nightstar-mfq.k5c.237.96.IP] has left #mf0 [] |
| 20:34 | < mraichelson> | err, i was kidding, but okay. |
| 20:34 | | FlakManiak [Erik@Nightstar-mfq.k5c.237.96.IP] has joined #mf0 |
| 20:39 | < Ced23Ric> | ... motherfuck. |
| 20:39 | < Ced23Ric> | How can you run out of 1x1 rounds? |
| 20:40 | < Ced23Ric> | This is appaling. |
| 20:44 | | * mraichelson sees referral link from 4chan. |
| 20:44 | | * mraichelson shifts in seat uncomfortably. |
| 20:45 | < Ced23Ric> | I linked to you today. |
| 20:46 | < mraichelson> | i figured it was probably from somewhere in tg. but at a glance it didnāt actually say. went digging to look it up. :) |
| 20:46 | < mraichelson> | (and danke) |
| 20:47 | < Ced23Ric> | http://boards.4chan.org/tg/thread/33442831/mobile-frame-zero-mf0-general-025 |
| 20:47 | < FlakManiak> | Oh, Ced, how's your rules consolidation/patch going? Is the "just the normal rules, but organized" thing done? |
| 20:47 | < Ced23Ric> | It's done textwise. |
| 20:48 | < Ced23Ric> | Now I need to find the energy to actually design it and add graphics. |
| 20:48 | < Ced23Ric> | (Hint: I don't have that.) |
| 20:50 | < FlakManiak> | Well, even just the text would probably be really helpful to me. Do you mind sharing that? |
| 20:52 | < Ced23Ric> | It should be online, but I'll check and update. |
| 20:52 | < Ced23Ric> | i'l post on the thread when I am done with building etc. pp. |
| 20:56 | < FlakManiak> | Hmm. I should make stations already. |
| 20:56 | < FlakManiak> | They're the one thing I've neglected most. |
| 20:56 | < Ced23Ric> | Telle me about it. I have 4 and made 4 more impromptu ones to get a full game going, but I really don't like any but one. |
| 20:56 | < FlakManiak> | The 4x4 guideline is impossible so I think I'll just pretend it's 6x6. |
| 20:56 | < FlakManiak> | I have, uh, zero actual stations, and eleven frame companies. |
| 20:57 | < Ced23Ric> | ... my god. |
| 20:57 | < FlakManiak> | Well, not all the frame companies are ready for gameplay. |
| 20:57 | < FlakManiak> | But still. |
| 20:57 | < Ced23Ric> | I have about 40 frames ready to play. |
| 20:57 | < FlakManiak> | Nice. |
| 20:57 | < FlakManiak> | I think my total frames is 60, with five being one-offs. |
| 20:58 | < Ced23Ric> | Organized in 4 companies and 4x 2 frame demo teams. |
| 20:58 | < FlakManiak> | Hmm, yeah, that number is still accurate. |
| 20:58 | < FlakManiak> | ten-frame companies? |
| 20:58 | < Ced23Ric> | ... and after I am done stcikering my last Scramblers here, they'll be good to go. |
| 20:58 | < FlakManiak> | I have nine companies of five, one of four, and one of six. |
| 20:58 | < Ced23Ric> | Nah, 2x8 and 2x 7. |
| 20:58 | < Ced23Ric> | The 8 ones are gonna get cut down to 7 though. |
| 20:58 | < FlakManiak> | Oh I thought you said "around 4x 2" not "and 4x 2". I can't read. |
| 20:59 | < Ced23Ric> | Hah. |
| 20:59 | < FlakManiak> | You don't want the versatility of being able to field eight? |
| 20:59 | < Ced23Ric> | When will that happen? In 1 vs 1. |
| 20:59 | < Ced23Ric> | And WHEN I fight 1 vs 1 I rather have a higher ppa. |
| 20:59 | < Ced23Ric> | In 3 player games, the imit is already 7. |
| 20:59 | < Ced23Ric> | And I have almost a dozen players. |
| 21:02 | < FlakManiak> | Oh the limit is 7 in 3P? Alright then. |
| 21:02 | < FlakManiak> | Hmm. I kind of want to make three more blue dragons just so I can say I have the company maxed out though. |
| 21:03 | < Ced23Ric> | Did you get any games under your belt yet? |

| 22:02 | < Ced23Ric> | Mike! |
| 22:02 | < Ced23Ric> | http://mobileframehangar.com/viewtopic.php?f=12&t=5031 |
| 22:02 | < Ced23Ric> | There. |
| 22:03 | < mraichelson> | sweet! |
| 22:03 | < FlakManiak> | I haven't, but maybe I can this weekend. |
| 22:03 | < FlakManiak> | There's a strong possibility, really. |
| 22:03 | < mraichelson> | jebus, dat artillery. |
| 22:03 | < FlakManiak> | Though... I might just end up playing Codex instead. |
| 22:03 | < Ced23Ric> | I was debating on going 12 tubes, but that felt like overkill. |
| 22:04 | < FlakManiak> | Wow, that artillery. |
| 22:05 | < FlakManiak> | Ced, you might claim to be just an engineer... But your builds are too stylish. |
| 22:05 | < Ced23Ric> | I bow my head to all those who tought me before. |
| 22:05 | < Ced23Ric> | Thanks! |
| 22:06 | < Ced23Ric> | I have to admit, the stickers really make these guys. |
| 22:07 | < FlakManiak> | Yeah, the stickers are super sweet. |
| 22:07 | < Ced23Ric> | Most of it is Galaxy Squad. |
| 22:07 | < FlakManiak> | The direct fire guns are also great. |
| 22:07 | < FlakManiak> | How exactly are the direct fire guns assembled? |
| 22:07 | < Ced23Ric> | Yeah, I am really happy about those. |
| 22:07 | < Ced23Ric> | Check the LXF, I just put it in the thread. |
| 22:07 | < FlakManiak> | I remember trying to puzzle it out before, but didn't quite finish... |
| 22:07 | < FlakManiak> | Ok. |
| 22:07 | < Ced23Ric> | If not, I can explain. |
| 22:08 | < Ced23Ric> | Hint: It uses 3mm tube in the brick, and a 3L bar in LDD. |
| 22:09 | < FlakManiak> | So the top axle holder doesn't actually attach to the front of the gun? |
| 22:09 | < FlakManiak> | Or does it go through or something strange? |
| 22:09 | < Ced23Ric> | Well, the entire assembly works a little funny. |
| 22:10 | < Ced23Ric> | You have the 2x1 lift arm in the back. With the half pin/studs. |
| 22:10 | < Ced23Ric> | That is how it mounts to the ball turret. |
| 22:10 | < FlakManiak> | Right. |
| 22:10 | < Ced23Ric> | Then, there is the 4L bar running through the lower pin/stud, into the axle hole of the front liftarm thing. |
| 22:10 | < FlakManiak> | Right. |
| 22:10 | < Ced23Ric> | And then, there is a regular 2L pin in black in the top pin hole of the front liftarm. |
| 22:11 | < Ced23Ric> | Now you have two pins on either side. |
| 22:11 | < Ced23Ric> | I shove cut tube into those pins. |
| 22:11 | < Ced23Ric> | And then slide the 2L axle "wrapper" (connector, whatever) over those tube ends. |
| 22:11 | < Ced23Ric> | For the front one, I had to cut it so it becomes more of a cone than a straight tube because the black pins have tighter inner diameters. |
| 22:12 | < Ced23Ric> | The grey half pin/stud thing fits fine. |
| 22:12 | < Ced23Ric> | There IS a 3L PIN-PIN-AXLE thing, but that is rare, not black and I had none. |
| 22:12 | < Ced23Ric> | So fuck that. |
| 22:12 | < Ced23Ric> | Alternatively, you CAN use 3L bar. There is room in the ball turret. |
