Start of #Exalted buffer: Fri Oct 23 08:17:45 2009 [18:21:15] Oh, hey, Adyen's on [18:21:29] I can't really look at too much gore [18:22:09] Well the SFX are pretty bad [18:22:21] and kinda intentionally that way [18:22:27] It doesn't matter if it's bad. If it's live action, I can't deal with it. [18:22:30] * Adyen (senranda@74.12.121.45) has joined #Exalted [18:22:33] Hey Adyen [18:22:35] aw [18:23:01] Adyen, how long do you think you can play? [18:24:21] Also, will you be around Sunday/ [18:24:23] 2 to 3 hours max [18:24:26] Sunday yes [18:24:30] Yon, Charles, you around? [18:24:32] What do you think? [18:24:53] and I need to start washing my clothes right now. [18:25:04] Oh. So that'll take away from the 2-3 hours? [18:25:29] I'm around [18:25:45] What do you think of the 2-3 hour time limit? [18:26:12] I guess it's better than nothing [18:26:56] I can stay up late tonight if you wanna do something [18:27:09] Well, tonight is Youkai day [18:27:14] ah [18:27:23] You can spectate if you like [18:27:26] #Youkai [18:27:34] I might join if you'll take me [18:27:34] Yeah I'm here [18:27:35] It's a slice of life RPG mostly, though. [18:27:38] Cool [18:27:52] * Adyen is now known as Emmy [18:27:56] mostly need a system and an idea of the the setting [18:28:00] * Yon is now known as Megumi [18:29:00] Huh? [18:29:13] added an extra the [18:29:18] by accident [18:30:03] fuck! I ordered a mcchicken and they gave me fish! [18:30:49] I meant, why do you need a system and idea of the setting if youwant to spectate? ?__ [18:30:51] ?_? [18:31:17] I meant if you'd let me join, or are you no longer taking PCs? [18:32:21] Well, we aren't exactly crowded, but this is an extremely social game. The PCs don't really do anything "cool". [18:32:27] Charles, get into channel [18:32:33] ah [18:32:39] For the most part, they go to school, eat lunch, chat, hang out after school, etc. [18:32:51] They deal with the occasional weird thing, but that's about it. [18:33:00] weird thing? [18:33:03] Hey, I punched a tree out once. >:C [18:33:06] haha [18:33:14] Weird supernatural incidences. [18:33:17] ah [18:33:32] But like, no one aside from Megumi's really built for fighting or whatever. [18:33:50] I've done social games before [18:33:55] I think I'm the most abnormally normal in the group. [18:34:07] And you can't tell me I didn't win, the tree wasn't moving afterwards. :colbert: [18:34:12] hahahaha [18:34:15] * Demota nods [18:34:25] Just as long as the other people are civil and nice [18:34:41] Right now, we've got a tanuki, an oni, a human that can seen kami, and whatever the heck Emmy is. [18:35:09] Hmmm... Human? Maybe? [18:35:19] Room for a minor Angel/Devil? [18:36:01] Angels and demons have very specific roles in this setting. [18:36:02] like really minor, like training level even? [18:36:15] hmmm [18:36:23] Maybe a lesser bodhisattva [18:36:51] I was prolly thinking with the Disgaea part of my brain [18:36:57] >_> are there even such thing as training angels in myths? [18:37:00] Not really [18:37:16] This is like... very, very focused on east Asian mythology [18:37:21] Ah [18:37:26] Tengu maybe? [18:37:40] Or maybe a monkey? [18:38:20] Those are doable. [18:38:42] Well Sarujin, I mean [18:38:48] * Charles is now known as Kentaro [18:39:13] OKay, you guys wanna continue from yesterday, or start a new day? [18:39:26] Sarujin being the more "Journey to the West" "Saiyan Type" monkey person [18:39:44] * Demota nods [18:39:46] ie: dude with a monkey tail and fur [18:40:08] While that's doable, animal types are usually shapechangers. No one is openly a youkai [18:40:13] ah [18:40:22] any particular system? [18:40:43] Sarujins can transform, so it should be just a problem of whether it can keep the transformation up for long periods of time. [18:40:52] Or rather, it can transform after training. >_> [18:41:08] It's called Pretenders, but we usually don't use die rolls at all [18:41:20] And I want next day. [18:41:32] ah [18:41:34] Yon, Charles? [18:41:50] do I need to write a bio or can I describe it here? [18:41:57] Seems like a good time to fast forward [18:42:09] Since Kentaro was taking off at the end of the last session [18:42:14] Alright [18:42:18] Go ahead and describe here. [18:42:21] Hell... hm. [18:42:23] ah k [18:42:37] Nah, might be too short notice, especially with our limited time. [18:44:06] Emmy will be where the play will be done to prepare for Megumi's practice today. [18:47:06] Lets see. A while back I had a concept for a PC named Jan Wukong(for a fantasy game, the name can be changed). He was a goofy funloving individual who was more or less a young boy with monkey traits. [18:47:06] Adyen: You still doing the clothes washing? [18:47:22] * Demota nods [18:47:44] To what extent are the PCs allowed as far as powers? [18:47:51] Anything you want. [18:47:54] Within reason. [18:47:57] ah k [18:49:21] Jan originally was supposed to be the greatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatgreatsomething or other grandson of the original Son Wukong though in the original game I was gonna leave his origins up in the air [18:49:28] Not really. I just got a plan for what Emmy's doing, and it's going to take a lot of time in game. [18:49:41] Oh. [18:49:41] It's a VERY rules light system [18:49:49] So do you want me to skip the lunch phase of the day, then? [18:49:50] ah [18:49:52] Like, you pick your stats. [18:50:15] What stats? [18:50:16] You could have all 1s if you wanted [18:50:29] nope, let the others have the spotlight. :D [18:50:42] You could pump them up ridiculously high [18:50:44] It's up to you [18:50:45] "The others" is just Charles and Yon and any NPCs... [18:51:02] o.O [18:51:11] I'm a little confused [18:51:13] Should I just skip the lunch phase? [18:51:30] Maybe, yeah [18:52:16] http://docs.google.com/View?id=dd88vhbs_239hhn25jcm This was the initial blurb. Ignore the plot stuff. Just look at the system [18:52:21] Kentaro and Megumi are at their best when they're fighting, but fighting without a third party is weird [18:52:42] ah k [18:52:51] Yeah. I could throw in an NPC, but I feel bad leaving a PC out [18:53:01] Yeah [18:55:45] Did Emmy call Miki? [18:56:02] Nope [18:56:10] k [19:00:14] Is Kentaro going to be around, or should I go pull up another channel to have Kentaro with an NPC or something? [19:00:42] How's this look? Earth4, Air3, Fire4, Water3, Spirit4 [19:00:43] At practice? [19:00:49] Yeah [19:00:52] Or is this just Emmy fucking around with Megumi? [19:00:54] AE: Whatever you like [19:00:56] Like, are other people there? [19:01:04] Oh. I think this is just Emmy and Megumi. [19:01:24] "Kekkai"? [19:01:45] Yes, a barrier of sorts. [19:01:53] http://www.onemanga.com/Kekkaishi/ [19:02:28] Ugh. Okay, let me create a seconary channel [19:02:43] Charles, anyone else, into there. What's Kentaro doing? [19:02:53] I think Kentaro might actually be going to work [19:02:55] I was REALLY hoping to have everyone in one scene. [19:03:04] * Demota nods [19:03:15] hmmm [19:03:21] so now I wait [19:03:24] :) [19:03:24] ... wait for what? [19:03:33] #Youkai2 [19:03:39] That'll be the Kentaro channel [19:03:49] Rather, that's 'trained' [19:03:51] for either the game to end or for my PC to be approved [19:03:56] Oh. [19:03:59] Well, do you have a name? [19:04:09] Do you have the specialty things? I think I might be able to work you in [19:04:14] ah k [19:04:19] Would Jan Wukong work? [19:04:31] or should I choose something less conspicuous? [19:04:53] It's up to you. Most of the cast is Japanese, though. [19:05:11] hmmm [19:05:17] It's fine either way. [19:05:21] lemme check what his name was in Japanese [19:05:24] Son Goku. [19:05:28] ah [19:05:32] >_> ya... [19:05:34] Yeah. [19:05:36] Jan Goku then [19:05:41] Or Toriyama. [19:05:51] That'll be an okay reference while still sounding possible [19:05:57] Eye'm the priestest [19:06:03] hahahhahaahhahaha [19:06:09] Hop into #Youkai2, AE. [19:06:18] Get IC [19:06:27] Anyone who wants to spectate can do so [19:06:31] * Alt-Eisen is now known as Jan_Goku [19:06:50] Listen, there's only one person allowed to channel Cirno in this game. >:( [19:07:40] Jan, describe self [19:07:49] Ya-da ze~ [19:11:58] http://forums.somethingawful.com/attachment.php?postid=365595177 wow [19:14:26] w00t The Rogue Trader book came in :D [19:14:34] Oh, nice [19:15:35] Grats! [19:23:32] "I'm not a monkey, really!" [19:24:58] Yay for Levin Poka! [19:30:26] Eyo [19:30:30] Hi Nova [19:30:31] What's up? [19:30:46] Just got back from therapy [19:30:53] * Demota nods [19:30:59] Hope that went alright. [19:31:06] yeah [19:31:34] I really like having someone to vent to, who then is obligated to try and give me constructive insight. [19:32:40] * Adyen (senranda@74.12.128.117) has joined #Exalted [19:34:13] * Emmy (senranda@74.12.121.45) Quit (Ping timeout: 180 seconds) [19:34:44] Glad that went well. It can be tricky to find a good therapist sometimes [19:34:50] Yeah [19:34:57] At least he's not talking about yin and yang. [19:35:11] And balancing your chi. :facepalm: [19:36:40] Now I kinda want Chi Fit for the Wii. [19:36:47] Or letting out your Cosmos. [19:37:01] Hahahhaha, Chi Fit [19:37:11] Hahahah [19:41:39] What year is Jan in? [19:42:15] What do you mean? [19:42:16] * Adyen is now known as Emmy [19:42:24] 1st year, 2nd year, or 3rd year? [19:42:30] ah [19:42:44] For school [19:42:49] 2nd [19:43:08] transferred from out of country [19:43:22] * Demota nods [19:43:44] Wow. I think that'd make you the... first 2nd year in the game. [19:43:54] o.O [19:44:22] Whoa, the RT book has Storm Bolters [19:45:06] Don't you need 70 Str to weild one? [19:45:26] Storm Bolters are 9kg [19:45:36] you're thinking of a Heavy Bolter [19:45:40] aah [19:45:48] How's everyone doing, for remaining game time and sleepiness? [19:46:00] Pretty well [19:46:20] Wide awake and all the time in the world [19:46:28] I'd like to talk with you guys about making my RT PC but that can wait till tomorrow [19:47:14] 1 hour or so left. [19:47:19] aahahahh [19:47:20] DancinBrud posted: [19:47:20] Also, my wife bought the Rock Band Underpants for me last weekend. [19:47:20] Pros: Comfortable. Blue. [19:47:20] Cons: Waistband feels cheap. Can't tell it's actually a Rock Band product unless you look at the tag (maybe this is actually a pro?). [19:47:20] What makes them Rock Band underpants then? [19:47:27] Luce posted: [19:47:27] What makes them Rock Band underpants then? [19:47:27] They're Pull-Offs! :awesome: [19:49:39] did I just leave the scene? [19:50:02] Y... eah. [19:50:10] poody [19:50:11] I've got no idea how to get you back into a scene with PCs. [19:50:23] hmmm [19:50:55] I could wait or find a reason to go back inside [19:51:06] Hm [19:52:24] I think the group's pretty much fallen apart. I'll have to skip to another day to try to get things to come together. No big deal. [19:52:33] Should I go ahead and do that? [19:52:37] Well, I guess my kekkai could be completely undone anyways. Maybe we can go find Kentaro. [19:52:51] * Demota nods [19:53:31] Well, you could go to Bean Around, but there'd still be no reason to run into Jan... unless he sees one of you guys and was interested in talking with you? [19:53:39] What's Jan interested in, aside from bananas? [19:53:55] hmmm [19:54:20] well he might be heading to the local video arcade [19:54:43] Hm. [19:55:27] I guess Kentaro might be interested in games, and he can head there, then the other smight head there, after trying to follow Kentaro? [19:56:06] He might also head to a book store to read manga [19:56:37] What do you guys think? [19:57:40] That might work, yeah [19:57:43] * Emmy just shrugs. [19:58:02] Let's say he goes to a game center [20:04:39] I got to dry my clothes. brb. [20:05:59] 1d10 [20:06:00] Demota rolls 1D10: 6 [20:07:32] What are you doing to find them? [20:11:59] Let's go ahead and make a... [20:12:20] Well, it seems logical to look for him at Bean Around [20:12:20] Hm. [20:12:26] * Demota nods [20:12:26] Or call to see where he is [20:12:56] Each of you, roll a number of d6s equal to your Fire score. [20:13:06] 5d6 [20:13:06] Megumi rolls 5D6: 4 4 6 5 3 = 22 [20:13:14] Of the guys playing. Whoops [20:13:18] 4d6 [20:13:19] Jan_Goku rolls 4D6: 5 4 3 4 = 16 [20:13:21] ... :downs: [20:13:49] Let's see, I think Kentaro's is 2 [20:13:51] 4d6 [20:13:51] Emmy rolls 4D6: 4 4 1 3 = 12 [20:13:52] 2d6 [20:13:52] Kentaro rolls 2D6: 3 1 = 4 [20:13:55] Laffo [20:14:14] I'm gonna put my 3 in safety so I don't seriously injure myself playing Skee-ball [20:14:14] Really? I thought his Fire score was higher than that [20:14:27] I think his Earth is higher. Let me open the sheet [20:14:29] Well, I'm not too interested in specific results thistime, just totals. [20:15:57] 3d6 [20:15:58] Kentaro rolls 3D6: 1 3 6 = 10 [20:21:53] How is everyone? [20:22:33] I'm waiting for someone else to post first so I can react [20:22:42] Charles, Yon? [20:22:49] I'm going to sleep pretty soon... >_> [20:22:51] I'm okay but slightly distracted for the next ten minutes [20:22:56] I'm a little concenred since the main channel's been dead for 20 minutes [20:22:58] oh. [20:23:36] I;m distractd, yeah, but still good to play [20:24:02] I guess we can keep going, though I kinda wish there were faster response times [20:24:37] Well, in part, I'm not sure how to proceed [20:25:08] Like, approaching another youkai seems like a weird situation [20:25:15] Yeah [20:25:22] should I just pull the old "So I've been noticing you're following me"? [20:25:46] Dunno. I think maybe we can wait for Megumi [20:27:57] hmmm [20:27:58] I'm going to wash dishes and do some cleaning. Not like I'll be necessary for a little while anyway, even when you do meet up again [20:33:51] >_> I think I'll bail out now. I really have to sleep. I'm going to be working with 6 hours of sleep as it is. [20:36:10] * Cheeseball (mahamari@adsl-71-138-135-199.dsl.pltn13.pacbell.net) has joined #Exalted [20:36:14] Hey, Maha [20:36:16] Night Adyen [20:36:20] You able to play today? [20:36:30] Heya. Yeah, I can play a little before bed. Just got back not too long ago. [20:37:17] night. [20:37:22] * Emmy is now known as Adyen [20:37:30] * Adyen is now known as AFK_Adyen [20:38:35] * Demota nods [20:38:40] Go ahead and get IC and into the channel [20:38:45] * Cheeseball is now known as Berny [20:38:57] I'm a little busyish, but everyone's at a game center right now. Maybe Berny's there to play or is passing by and spots them [20:39:15] Ah, okay. [20:39:39] If you're about to wrap up, I'll just watch. ^^ No worries. [20:41:04] Hey, Maha [20:41:09] * AFK_Adyen (senranda@74.12.128.117) Quit (Quit: Client Exited) [20:41:14] Heya, Cha. [20:41:36] Nah, not wrapping up so much. Me and Yon were preoccupied so it's been really, really slow, but we're good to keep going [20:43:01] What is it that you guys are preoccupied with, because I've been starting to feel a little down about that. :/ [20:43:19] I told you, I'd be doing Naxx on thursdays for the next few weeks [20:44:01] Oh, okay. I'll have Berny walk by, then. [20:44:28] I'm imagining Kentaro is holding the skee-balls in front of his crotch. :| [20:44:42] o.O [20:45:02] Hahah [20:46:08] Hahaha [20:47:21] What season is it, Dem? [20:47:46] And what day of the week? :) [20:48:30] http://www.4thletter.net/sfmk/kombatant.jpg Hahahahah WHAT [20:49:03] eeeeh? [20:49:29] It's from the Mortal Kombat comic D: [20:49:48] satuday [20:49:57] Hahaha [20:50:03] I don't remember the season anymore [20:50:13] I need to get the calendar worked out [20:50:17] And I'm feeling a little down. [20:50:27] Why's that? :( [20:50:53] Just a lot of frustrations building up. Partly related to washing the dishes. [20:51:22] Dad just leaves plates next to him all day, and I nearly sliced myself on a really sharp knife whiel I was trying to scrub away the stuff that dried onto it [20:51:44] Jesus [20:51:49] I wish people would put dishes in the water immediately instead of letting it dry. Especially dad's stuff. [20:51:58] Then I saw a cup behidn the kitchen garbage can for some reason [20:52:24] Wow. [20:52:34] I let dishes soak on teh right. Then put the stuff on the left. Then soap it up, then put it in an empty basin on the right side. Then I soak it all in water. [20:52:59] Then half the time, dad hears the water running and puts his dirty dishes in the right side basin, contaminating the theoretical "clean except for soap" side. [20:53:15] :picard: [20:53:38] That's terrible [20:53:46] yeah [20:53:52] I do not miss washing dishes by hand. [20:54:02] Have you tried telling him which side to put the dishes in? [20:54:06] yeah. [20:54:15] But he's like, 60something and forgets stuff all the time [20:54:22] We have a dishwasher, but that thing uses up a ridiculous amount of water. [20:56:08] Aw. Make signs? [20:56:29] Like, a "dirty dishes here" sign? [20:56:39] Maybe, but having specific categories and doing things in a specific order are probably already kinda OCD as it is. [20:57:14] Yeah, but if you have your own secret categories, you're just going to get frustrated when other people don't fulfill them [20:58:04] I tell him. :( [20:58:08] It's not exactly secret [20:58:09] Nah, I do a similar thing when washing dishes. [20:58:44] Bck at my old job, I organized stuff all the time, and then my coworkers would casually disorganize them because there was nothing to remind them of what was up [21:00:18] 'Saru' is Japanese for monkey, but Kentaro's using it in address as though it were a proper name [21:00:58] Saru-san? [21:01:59] Nah. Kentaro's kind of socially derpy, so I think he addresses most people without honorifics unless they're close friends. But I figure that he's still using it as direct address [21:03:50] http://www.4thletter.net/sfmk/gorobfg.jpg Why the fuck does Goro have a Liefelder? [21:03:57] hahahah [21:10:53] I like how Kentaro's the one iwth the vocabulary here. :V [21:12:22] His vocabulary clearly has some gaps, though. He knows what a simian is, but can't express it :V [21:12:39] hahaha [21:16:44] I really love the idea of an arcade machine kami. [21:16:52] Yeah. [21:16:54] Aaaaaaaaaaahahahaha http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Is_Live [21:19:09] Oh man [21:19:10] Oh, shoot. I forgot I hadn't sent in the RSVP for my high school reunion [21:19:14] Hi Nova [21:19:14] That'd be the coolest kami ever. [21:19:15] What's up? [21:19:21] lurking ._. [21:19:21] Not that I particularly want to go since I didn't have friends in my year [21:19:22] But still [21:19:29] When's the due date? [21:19:45] Nova: You familiar with shinto much? [21:19:57] Not much [21:20:00] I was gonna say that being an arcade machine kami must really suck ass, but then I remembered that arcades aren't nearly as bad off in Japan. [21:20:01] Just vaguely [21:20:06] * Demota nods [21:20:13] Like, there's a spirit for every thing, and then a spirit for the concept of things. [21:20:26] And then a spirit for pure concepts [21:20:33] Yeah. [21:20:36] ANd then a spirit of all pure concepts [21:20:41] And a spirit of all things [21:20:43] And, arguably, gods for individual components [21:20:46] And a spirit of everything [21:21:03] * NovaSeaker nods. [21:21:32] That's how I'm sort of running it in youkai. Anyone capable of perceiving kami have REALLY weird vision. [21:21:59] Since they can see what anyone else can see, then they can see the kami of everything, then can "tune" to see kami on higher or lower levels. [21:22:26] Like a mouse god, the left button god, the mouse wheel god, the mouse wheel axis god.. [21:28:32] haha [21:28:34] http://us.blizzard.com/store/details.xml?id=1100000632 Oh man [21:28:43] awwww [21:29:41] * Megumi facepalms. "Hahhahaha, so a while back my brother said that we should split the cost of Arkham Asylum. Seeing as I owe him $30 and his birthday is in a couple weeks on top of that, I offered to just buy it for him." [21:30:05] He goes "But I was going to buy it for you!" [21:30:13] Hee [21:30:23] hahahahahah [21:30:48] Oh man, I totally want one. [21:31:39] So is it a new rule that somebody has to use that line in ALL of our games or something? :V [21:31:51] Apparently so! [21:31:56] Just like how every game's gotta have yuri [21:32:11] Honestly, it just seemed appropriate since it's both an explanation and Kentaro talking about balls. :V [21:32:35] Hahahahhaa [21:33:12] http://i.somethingawful.com/forumsystem/customtitles/title-vidmaster.gif [21:33:34] I guess Maha's busy. :{ [21:34:00] Odal is missing yuri. Not for lack of trying, though. [21:34:10] It's got yuri undertones. That's enough. [21:34:15] Heh [21:34:26] What was the line that gets used in all games? [21:34:31] Four balls [21:34:38] * ChanServ sets mode: +o NovaSeaker [21:34:59] Oh, Redscarves. In our youkai setting, the redscarves are a closed social group. They're all girls, and they all wear red scarves. [21:35:07] er [21:35:17] They're usually moderately wealthy. [21:35:25] The school the PCs attend has a number of them. [21:35:27] Sorry, Cha, just wanted to leave #Sharn empty. Didn't realize you were on auto-reconnect [21:35:54] Oh man [21:36:27] So Jan would probably have seen a few around [21:36:37] ah [21:41:04] http://www.tedel.com/chaz/theend3.PNG Oh man. I wonder if I should wallpaper this [21:41:20] It's my wallpaper right now. [21:42:01] Poor Megumi. :V [21:42:09] save us, we're caught in a loop :( [21:42:34]
