| 14:27 | < Shades_Corvid> | Good morning snow day! |
| 14:27 | < mraichelson> | noice |
| 14:27 | < Shades_Corvid> | meh, have to use vacaction to get paid though :P |
| 14:33 | < mraichelson> | that sucks |
| 14:35 | < Shades_Corvid> | Sure does, has to be a full on shut down for them to pay us and cancel work. I think that would take like a state of emergency or something. |

| 14:38 | < Shades_Corvid> | Hey MK |
| 14:39 | < Mantisking> | Allo? |
| 14:39 | < Shades_Corvid> | we are alive |
| 14:40 | < Shades_Corvid> | Should I hang a sign? |
| 14:43 | | Mantisking_ [NSwebIRC@Nightstar-3lq4g4.fios.verizon.net] has joined #mf0 |
| 14:43 | < Mantisking_> | Aaaaand this is going to get annoying. |
| 14:43 | < Shades_Corvid> | You using a client or the java |
| 14:44 | < Mantisking_> | Java. |
| 14:44 | < Shades_Corvid> | What browser? |
| 14:44 | < Mantisking_> | I had loaded a client into the Firefox browser I used to use, but then I swiched computers. |
| 14:45 | | Mantisking [NSwebIRC@Nightstar-3lq4g4.fios.verizon.net] has quit [Ping timeout: 121 seconds] |
| 14:45 | < Mantisking_> | I'm using Chrome at the moment. |
| 14:45 | < Shades_Corvid> | There is an IRC DLC for chrome that works and is stable. |
| 14:46 | < Shades_Corvid> | What am using now. |
| 14:46 | < Mantisking_> | I'll look into it, but I am on a work computer. :-) |
| 14:47 | < Shades_Corvid> | roger that. |
| 14:53 | < Mantisking_> | So what are you working on for the blog? |
| 14:54 | < Shades_Corvid> | The smoothie cart from Target''s V day collection currently |
| 14:58 | < Mantisking_> | I didn't get one of those. I'm disappointed. |
| 14:59 | < Shades_Corvid> | Mine has ton still, even the helicopter. |
| 14:59 | < Shades_Corvid> | It not that great but has 3 taps |
| 14:59 | < Mantisking_> | I grabbed two more helicopters the other day and cleaned out my local Target. The Smoothie Cart was already gone. |
| 15:00 | < Mantisking_> | Which is weird because it cost more. |
| 15:00 | < Mantisking_> | I still have two more stores to check though. |
| 15:01 | < Shades_Corvid> | don't know what to tell you. |
| 15:02 | < Mantisking_> | Well, the V-Day section was destroyed in both stores I went to so, it may have been a late rush and people grabbed whatever they could due to the weather. |
| 15:04 | < Shades_Corvid> | They might be moving the stock around for easter too, I keep an eye on the clearance section. |
| 15:05 | < Mantisking_> | As do I. :-) |
| 15:06 | < Mantisking_> | Never pay full price if you can help it. |
| 15:06 | < Shades_Corvid> | got that droid with the 360 tread for like 5ish once |
| 15:06 | < Mantisking_> | I've got two of them sitting in my "review" pile. |
| 15:07 | < Mantisking_> | Oh, the "$10 off $50" Star Wars Lego sale would be good for picking up the new crop of Microfighters. |
| 15:07 | < Shades_Corvid> | oh, already did that... |
| 15:08 | < Shades_Corvid> | not the sale, just have them. I spend about $10 a week on something for the blog/mf0 |

| 15:23 | < Shades_Corvid> | He will be back |
| 15:58 | | Mantisking [NSwebIRC@Nightstar-3lq4g4.fios.verizon.net] has joined #mf0 |
| 15:58 | < Mantisking> | Back. Just got done with two vendor meetings. |
| 16:01 | < Shades_Corvid> | wb |
| 16:07 | < Mantisking> | Whee. |
| 16:09 | < Shades_Corvid> | to the cropping! |
| 16:15 | < Shades_Corvid> | cleared snow, now photo cropping |
| 16:17 | < Mantisking> | How much snow did you get down there? |
| 16:17 | < Shades_Corvid> | 5 inches in Newport News, VA |
| 16:18 | < Mantisking> | At this point we've gotten over ten times that. |
| 16:21 | < mraichelson> | yeah, have friends in boston and southern NH that have been mighty fed up lately. :) |
| 16:21 | < Shades_Corvid> | I am sure |
| 16:22 | < Mantisking> | I'm sooooo tired of the snow at the moment. :-) |
| 16:23 | < Shades_Corvid> | Target in my area has a bunch of snow toys on sale. I should have picked some up. |
| 16:39 | < Mantisking> | Is it time to go home yet? |
| 16:40 | < Shades_Corvid> | I am already home |
| 16:40 | < Mantisking> | :-P |
| 16:41 | < Shades_Corvid> | Jumping to PAX East 2016 minifig scale, so for rules I am presuming at the moment we would be using the mods from the Size, Scale, and Standards? |
| 16:43 | < Mantisking> | Double all dimensions, right? |
| 16:52 | < Shades_Corvid> | yeah, just want to make sure we are on the same page. That goes to cover as well. |
| 16:55 | < Mantisking> | No problem. |
| 17:01 | < mraichelson> | cover sounds like where that will really get expensive :) |
| 17:04 | < Mantisking> | I've got a *lot* of unopened boxes of Lego. |

| 17:13 | | Irssi: Join to #mf0 was synced in 36 secs |
| 17:19 | < Shades_Corvid> | I am starting to get there myself but I agree with Raichelson's statement. |
| 17:25 | < Mantisking> | Once we get past this year I'll really start digging into it, but I think I can cover it without too many problems. Pun intended. |
| 17:25 | < Shades_Corvid> | I am not that worried about it either, have more then a year. Stations too. |
| 17:27 | < Mantisking> | Since you and I are both going, I hope we can get at least one more MFZ blogger to go and then hold a "MFZ blogger's symposium" or something like that. |
| 17:31 | < Shades_Corvid> | be very cool |
| 17:32 | < Shades_Corvid> | anything else MF0 you think we could do besides these two things and helping Joshua demo? |
| 17:36 | < Shades_Corvid> | Also if we could get a third for minifigure scale game that be cool. |
| 17:36 | < Mantisking> | Joshua and I are talking about organizing a tournament. |
| 17:37 | < Shades_Corvid> | awesome |
| 17:37 | < Shades_Corvid> | might want to consult greg, aka Transit Gate, they had some issues or something so might have some Lessons Learn to tell. |
| 17:38 | < Mantisking> | Yeah, from what I heard it was attendance problems. |
| 17:41 | < Shades_Corvid> | Oh, ok |
| 17:42 | < Mantisking> | There's a fairly large Massachusetts MFZ contingent and I'm going to put on a full court press once we get done with PAX East this year. |
| 17:42 | < Shades_Corvid> | I am thinking of starting "road to past east 2016' series of posts after 2015 is done. |
| 17:43 | < Mantisking> | Oooh, good idea. |
| 17:43 | < Shades_Corvid> | PAX even, not past |
| 17:44 | < Mantisking> | We still have to figure out what we're going to do for that "Iron Reviewers" post on both our blogs. |
| 17:44 | < Shades_Corvid> | True true |
| 17:48 | < Mantisking> | Ah, okay. Looking at what I copy/pasted, it looks like the idea was for me to do something you couldn't copy. |
| 17:51 | < Shades_Corvid> | I still think there should be a host somehow and it should all about not being serious. |
| 17:51 | < Mantisking> | True. |
| 17:52 | < Shades_Corvid> | That is why I suggest the one that uses cartoon characters but I don't think they have done anything in awhile but maybe it be a guest blog thing...or switch to doing something live on G Hangout? |
| 17:54 | < Mantisking> | A G+ Hangout might work. |
| 17:55 | < Mantisking> | Check this out. https://www.flickr.com/photos/75723140@N03/16316653399/in/pool-legomechaskill |

| 21:12 | < Mantisking> | The place where I work has a flat roof. Yay. |
| 21:42 | < Shades_Corvid> | What, how does someplace with a real snow season have a flat roof |
| 21:42 | < Shades_Corvid> | back from my nap |
| 21:50 | < Mantisking> | There are a few places around with flat roofs. They're usually industrial buildings. |
| 21:53 | < Shades_Corvid> | Alright, now to build a maxel |
