Session Start: Sat Mar 22 19:08:18 2003 [19:08] * Now talking in #pvpexalted [19:08] * Topic is 'Exalted: What do I see? A flower, whose name I don't know yet' [19:08] 'lo [19:09] * Jydan waves. "Hi GoldenH [19:09] 'ello, GH. [19:09] 'sup? [19:09] Eh. [19:10] Just watching TV. [19:10] WWF? [19:11] yesssss NIU has a japanese minor [19:12] * FiatVictrix shrugs. Nah, watchubg Discovery channel. [19:12] ing, ing. [19:13] mmm [19:25] You know, it's still kinda weird that one plane costs 1.5 billion dollars. [19:25] not when you realize that most engineers get a nice 100,000/year salary. [19:26] and CEOs can get paid that much a year. [19:26] more if they want. [19:27] There's not a whole lot of places making anti-radar material. [19:27] Therefore if you want a company to build, maintain, and operate said facility you pay big, also so they don't get tempted to sell it to others. [19:27] Ahhhh. [19:28] The desgin requires almost exact specifications, which requires VERY precise and expensive equipment. [19:28] * Hikari (Hikari@zaqd378a51a.zaq.ne.jp) has joined #pvpexalted [19:28] * ChanServ sets mode: +o Hikari [19:28] Good morning. [19:28] Hello Hikari. :) [19:28] 'ello, Hik. [19:28] good mornin [19:29] * GoldenH gives hik a puffy marshmellow [19:29] And my name is Hikari, or if you prefer, Mayumi. [19:29] :) [19:29] * Hikari points to the title. :) [19:29] noooooo people have to stop calling me GH????? [19:30] * Jydan chuckles. [19:30] Now, why would we want to do that? Somebody registered the name? [19:30] nah [19:31] I think she's referring to her being the flower in the topic... [19:31] That's what she's doing. [19:31] That, or my peppermint cola has something else entirely in it. [19:31] * GoldenH chuckles [19:31] * Jydan concurs with the Fiat. [19:31] man I am daft [19:32] Daft punk? [19:32] Now, who else here smells of rosebuds? [19:33] * Jydan raises his hand. [19:33] Of course I was refering to the title. [19:33] stupid rose petals. [19:33] .... [19:33] Oh... [19:33] Hey, it was your idea Fiat. I'm still picking those things out of places. [19:34] actually I need to take a shower before the game [19:34] * GoldenH assualts with the power of unwashed funk! [19:34] I didn't hear you complaining before. [19:34] Errr... good to hear that you have finally admitted your feelings and lived them out... [19:34] There was no reason to complain. [19:35] * FiatVictrix shrugs. Hey, at least I'm the pretty one in that relationship. [19:35] * Jydan scowls. [19:35] So Jydan goes on top? [19:36] Awwww, babe, you know I kid. [19:36] Yeah. I'm the pretty one. [19:36] And Fiat goes on top? [19:37] We alternate. [19:37] Good. It is best that way. Showing that you are equal in your relationship, and all that. [19:38] Alsomore fun to experiment. [19:38] * GoldenH is now known as GoldenH|Showa [19:39] Hik, there's a 89 megabyte update to AA. 1.60. [19:40] Oh dear.... [19:40] What is new in it? [19:40] They aren't excatly clear on that..... [19:41] Ah, so it is the long expected version that has all opfor take the appearance of a man in a beret and with a big mustache? [19:41] Carrying a SCUD missile on his back. [19:42] (I wish...) [19:42] Ricochetts. [19:42] Ricochet? Whoa... [19:42] Bulllets can get lodged in the walls. [19:44] Well, no problem if the lodge. I worry about the ones jumping back. [19:44] "During the 30 hour missions, the 2 pilots took naps on an 8 dollar lawn chair placed in the 1 billion dollar plane's cockpit." [19:45] Still, this mean we can finally be Revolver Ocelot, just with an M16A2 this time. [19:46] * FiatVictrix considers the unholy offspring of a revolver and a rifle. [19:47] I have to PAY for the patch...? [19:48] No, you can download it for free, I think. [19:48] That's what I'm doing. [19:49] ooo... medics... I might come to like this game again... [19:49] They have medics finally? [19:50] Sexxxcellent! [19:50] They say they will come. [19:50] Ahhh. [19:50] http://www.americasarmy.com/archives/news/v16_available_now.php [19:52] * GoldenH|Showa is now known as GoldenH [19:53] * GoldenH smells like apple blossoms now! [19:53] mmmmmmmm....... [19:54] I thought the F-22 was the JSF.... [19:55] laf. "Projectile Penetration [19:56] * Jydan worries. "Is it an armed AI?" [19:56] * FiatVictrix rolls his eyes. [19:57] Oh, no! The drones will initiate the Fire directive! [19:57] nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo [19:57] Hey, it's always possible. [19:57] * GoldenH leaps through the air in super-slowmo [19:57] Sure. But considering that the drones are always at least overseen by a human operator? [19:57] * DarthTom (~ltermac@HSE-QuebecCity-ppp3499254.sympatico.ca) has joined #pvpexalted [19:58] True. [19:58] 'ello, DT. [19:58] Hey DT. [19:58] Hello, DT. [19:58] How to defeat Stealth Technology - KILL EVERY BIRD ON EARTH! [19:59] and every cloud [19:59] And every particle of air. [19:59] Offense always enjoys a period of supremacy over defense. [19:59] yo [19:59] NOOOO! Not the clouds! They give birth to the rain babies! [19:59] No wait. Killing the air would help stealth... [19:59] indeed. [19:59] But at least the airplanes can't fly then. [19:59] Quite. [20:00] what about stealth boats ? [20:00] I bet they would just use rockets instead of jets. [20:00] KILL THE WATER! [20:00] rockets are VERY visable, hik :) [20:00] plus the smoke trail wuld stay forever. [20:00] they COULD have super-low-orbit spacestations of destruction, though. [20:01] Yaaaaay! [20:01] But... I don't want to have to pay for air. [20:01] Too bad! [20:01] that's ok, Fiat. there will be a rebel group deep below the earth's surface that distributes pirated air. [20:02] You are already paying for it. [20:02] Yaaaay! Pirated air! [20:02] 10% of your income is actually air tax. [20:02] You see... [20:02] * Thanos (~web-Guest@ip68-108-129-116.lv.lv.cox.net) has joined #pvpexalted [20:02] ... ACK! [20:02] Back in the 14th century, before air was recognized as matter, the Order bought all of it. [20:02] 'ello, T. [20:02] Hello, Thanos. [20:02] * Thanos bows to everybody. [20:03] yo Than [20:03] * FiatVictrix blinks. [20:03] GH been around? [20:03] Now getting paid for allowing you to breathe it is one of our greatest sources of income. [20:03] I'm having to pay the Order for AIR? [20:03] Yes. [20:03] You can always stop breathing if you want. [20:03] The Order? [20:04] This is different from how the Order charges insane prices at movie concession stands, and all that other stuff. [20:04] This is just unconscionable. [20:04] NWO? [20:04] But very effective. [20:04] hrmmm [20:04] GH? [20:04] Somewhat. [20:04] http://www.titaniumcounter.com/temp/emergency For those who haven't seen it. [20:05] The Order - the global alliance of all women, bent on world domination. [20:05] * FiatVictrix grumbles.... wait a second... [20:05] Do women have to pay the air tax? [20:05] As if we didn't rule the world already. [20:05] Hrmmm GH does not seem to be answering ...... [20:05] Well, officially we do. [20:05] Officially. [20:05] But you know those Order parties and so? [20:05] We get in for free, with all the extras. [20:06] mmmmmm.... Order parties..... [20:06] Order parties? Can I have an invite sometime? [20:06] Ever wondered why teenage girls get into discos without paying or having to show ID? [20:06] Those are initiates of the Order. [20:06] Clearly, I must assemble a group of women that I may breathe from to avoid this horrendous tax... [20:06] They can still not get into the real parties, but the discos are both tests and training grounds [20:07] * FiatVictrix casts about for the little white book. [20:08] * DarthTom eats some gummi bears and sips his cream soda [20:08] Uhmm..> Are you in your Lazy Sith recliner? [20:08] Of course [20:08] Gummi bears and cream soda? How odd. [20:08] Good. [20:08] Fiat :Meh [20:09] * FiatVictrix blinks. [20:09] * GoldenH doesn't have to pay air tax [20:09] What is this? [20:09] This is orders for Kiyyoko from Torrigan. [20:10] He has ordered Kiyyoko? [20:10] * Thanos doesn't pay the air tax either, but can't discuss why. [20:10] If you are in the Order you know why ;-) [20:10] We undid what Torrigan and Kiyyoko did, because it was incorrect. Situro was supposed to give the orders to Kiyyoko, along with the hair. [20:10] Only for the night or is it all week? [20:10] Situro told Kiyyoko to do it, correct. [20:10] Thanos is female...? [20:11] Ah! [20:11] That order! [20:11] * Retrieving #pvpexalted info... [20:11] it is most sly. [20:11] I approve of your plans [20:11] * FiatVictrix looks suspiciously at Hik. [20:11] The one where we let men in and they think they actually have influence. :) [20:11] * GoldenH knows better. [20:11] That is just a front operation. [20:12] however, I can still tempt hikari.. with XP! [20:12] yesssss.... [20:12] Would you honestly like a world not ruled by men? There wouldn't be wars then! [20:12] * FiatVictrix blinks. [20:12] You see, men has to think they are important. Otherwise they break down interely. And we cannot have that, who would do all the heavy lifting if men all went utterly dah-dah. [20:12] You're taking the side... [20:12] XP?!! WHERE?! [20:12] Of the ABYSSALS. [20:13] Over the DBs. [20:13] Actually I hurt my back doing heavy lifting once. [20:13] This is a new and frightening thing. [20:13] * Jydan is just following orders. [20:13] who, me? [20:13] She doesn't agree with them, exactly, but Torrigan says to do it, and she respects Torrigan. [20:13] ah [20:14] * FiatVictrix is sooooo, sooooo going to use this.... [20:14] * FiatVictrix cackles. [20:14] * GoldenH snickers and takes fiat's queen! [20:14] HEY! [20:14] You give her back! [20:14] * GoldenH waves the queen at Fiat [20:14] that's what you get for falling into my trap! [20:14] She was getting old anyway. Just move three pawns to the end line. [20:15] * DarthTom (~ltermac@HSE-QuebecCity-ppp3499254.sympatico.ca) Quit (Ping timeout) [20:15] Oooooooh... three queens. [20:15] Young and untouched. [20:15] New as mint. [20:16] mmmmmmmmmm...... [20:16] yes.... get new queens! [20:16] new queens fiat! [20:16] * FiatVictrix blinks. [20:16] But... if you want me to do it... that means it's bad... [20:17] He just wants to take them. [20:17] Then you will be forces to get your remaining five pawns to the end line. [20:17] mmmmmmmm...... taking the queens. [20:17] If I take the queens, it means you LOSE the queens. [20:17] ACK! [20:18] * FiatVictrix doesn't want to lose his queens! [20:18] * Hikari suddenly imagines chess as an RPG. The kind following all of his pawns to the end of the board because he wants to be sure to be the first on them, not that perverted old bishop. [20:18] just remember, you have to be very careful in placing your King when you start taking queens :-) [20:18] (king - not kind) [20:19] lol hik [20:20] Having the original queen escort them is good too, if only because the action when the pawns reach the last line is exciting to watch. [20:20] MMmmmm..... [20:20] * FiatVictrix curses. [20:21] And just when I'd manage to think of chess as just a simple board game again. [20:21] Heh. [20:21] * Hikari is eeeevil. [20:21] * Thanos is now known as ThanHopesToBeBack [20:21] * Jydan gives the Hikari a sexy bisexual cookie! [20:22] mmm... yummy! [20:22] Should I just give up and see everything as a metaphor for sex? [20:22] Yes. [20:23] Probably. [20:23] everything is a meatphor for sex [20:23] The Order wants you to! [20:23] It'll be easier for the Order to defeat you then. [20:23] Errr... I mean. It is good for your male brain to do so. [20:23] It relaxes it and helps you rest. [20:24] Yes, that is it. [20:24] Meatphor, GH? [20:25] Yes, as in GOOOOOOD MEAT!! [20:25] * DarthTom (~ltermac@HSE-QuebecCity-ppp3496689.sympatico.ca) has joined #pvpexalted [20:25] * FiatVictrix was rather aware of that, you know. [20:26] Just don't complain when I start ranting and raving in about two hours because all my brain cells are dying from lack of blood due to seeing everything as sexual. [20:26] Of course you were. [20:26] * FiatVictrix is still holding out hope GH can explain it in a way that doesn't kill more brain cells. [20:27] So the Solar Lich King cannot wield his staff today? :) [20:27] what do you want me to explain? [20:27] * FiatVictrix winces. [20:28] Great. Just great. [20:29] And Cicada should not bounce around too much on her Sanyet-chair? [20:29] * FiatVictrix shrugs. Like she isn't suggestive enough already? [20:29] Yes, the poor girl is saddled with an perverted player. [20:30] Too bed I never got to go all out on Odessa. She has much greater brain-busting potential. :) [20:30] Hikari, I promise you, there is nothing left to bust. [20:30] (bed = bad. But you guessed that, right?) [20:30] * ThanHopesToBeBack (~web-Guest@ip68-108-129-116.lv.lv.cox.net) Quit (Client exited) [20:31] Yes, and you know that was an intentional misspelling. [20:31] (actually...) [20:31] (no...) [20:31] Bah. [20:31] You just won't admit it to yourself. [20:31] (I spotted the typo, then decided not to correct it) [20:32] * FiatVictrix grumbles. [20:32] However, I must now say that you have been surpassed by Bog Mod for brain-killing. [20:32] And the Hikari character is saddled with a perverted player, and that player is saddled with another perverted player, and that charcter is saddled with yet another perverted player. [20:32] * FiatVictrix sighs. [20:33] He has LOVER?!!! [20:33] And that player is saddled with a catholic schoolgirl. [20:33] Jydan? I was trying to ignore the whole "Saddled" bit. [20:33] (a lover. Damn my grammer is bad when excited..) [20:33] Remember the whole "Reality is just another Roleplaying game theme? [20:33] theory [20:33] * FiatVictrix kicks Jydan. [20:33] NO! [20:34] No, no, NO! [20:34] Awww.... I'm sorry, baby. I'll make it up to you after the game. [20:36] Damn you, I'm already stuck with the mental image of cowgirl Cicada, the whole game is likely to be combat and such now turned into sex, and you want to throw on more layers so that I can lose more coherent thought capability faster? [20:36] Hey, we've got to make up for lost time. [20:36] Right, Hik? [20:36] * FiatVictrix LIKES coherent thought! [20:36] The Solar Lich King had a two-headed flail as well? [20:37] Well the Order doesn't want you to HAVE coherent thought. [20:37] * Hikari nods. [20:38] So? Since when has that mattered? [20:38] New policy. [20:38] Just be a drooling sex freak. So much easier to guide your efforts in the way we want them to go. [20:38] Honestly, I'd expect the order would prefer a non-drooling gibbering Fiat. [20:38] Maybe if you were IN the Order. [20:38] Easier on the surroundings. [20:39] * FiatVictrix 's been in his fair share of Order women. Does that count? [20:39] Hikari, I'm not aware of a policy on that matter. [20:40] * GoldenH is now known as Storyteller [20:40] * FiatVictrix swears, going about it all wrong. [20:40] If you don't want me wearing a tinfoil hat, don't put up the mind control satellites. [20:41] Well, maybe you could join the Order. [20:41] #pvpexaltedrp and rp2 [20:41] And if you don't want me having coherent thought, don't try to take it away from me. [20:41] You'd be more useful to us that way. [20:41] Of course we want him in Order women. He would make a poor sex toy if we didn't actually get to play with him. [20:42] One of our newest recruits praise him in many, many words every time I talk with her. [20:42] Is Melanie a member, Hik? [20:42] Anyway, I will rush out and get myself some healthy filling lunch. [20:42] oook [20:42] * Jydan isn't privy to the members list, unforutnately. [20:43] That is classified information. [20:43] That means the answer is yes. [20:43] Have a good time, Hik. :) [20:43] Later, Hik. [20:43] this is a funky .swf [20:44] * FiatVictrix thought you'd like it. [20:44] What is it? [20:44] The daft comment reminded me of it. [20:45] Try again. [20:45] mmm [20:47] Fiat, DT, check your essence/WP/HL totals [20:48] !exc ess peri -1 [20:48] 50 dice or less. example: !ex 5 [20:48] !exc ess peri +1 [20:48] 50 dice or less. example: !ex 5 [20:49] !exc helath -1 B [20:49] 50 dice or less. example: !ex 5 [20:49] !exc health -1 B [20:49] 50 dice or less. example: !ex 5 [20:49] !exc health +2 B [20:49] !exc willpower -1 [20:49] !exc willpower +1 [20:49] Seems correct. [20:50] hmm. you didn't get hurt or anythin? [20:50] No. [20:50] * FiatVictrix 's been flat-out fine. [20:50] ah [20:50] Heck, didn't even have to reroll the diamond-busting arrow shot. [20:51] heh [20:51] keepin' track of yo arrows? [20:51] Yeah. [20:51] * Storyteller nods sagely [20:51] I've got the six adamant, the one talisman. [20:52] Since it's wartime, they're all poisoned, the talisman is a broadhead, the rest are split between broadhead and armor-piercing. [20:53] ok [20:53] I don't think poison will bother our friendly spirit guardian and/or lich king, but it works well on infernals. [20:54] * Storyteller nods sagely [20:54] i'm going to check the log for details. [20:54] * FiatVictrix considers. [20:54] down to 3 players... [20:54] Hrm. [20:54] * Storyteller shrugs. if they think i'm going to wait they're sadly mistaken. [20:55] !exx essence peri -19 [20:55] 50 dice or less.x example: !ex 5 [20:55] !exc essence peri -19 [20:55] That's for tiger form, tiger skin, and angry predator FRENZAAAY! [20:55] heh [20:55] Oh. 19. [20:55] no armor then? [20:55] Ah, the scene-long speed charm. [20:56] * FiatVictrix shrugs. Too hot. I'll make the move for silk armor at some point. [20:56] eh. [20:56] What? [20:56] No silk armor with MA? [20:56] * Storyteller hasn't decided about silk armor. [20:56] Don't make me hire a sorcerer to whip up a perronele. [20:56] bookstore STILL doesn't have eclipses. [20:56] * FiatVictrix shrugs. [20:57] * Storyteller shrugs. a perronele is actually a Plothook. [20:57] I look at it as the fact it's artifact, and it only gives 5L soak. [20:57] yea [20:57] Why not give it to the poor MA person? [20:57] it's what, 3 dot? [20:57] Back. [20:57] WB [20:57] 2, 3 dot. [20:57] :) [20:57] Hi Hik! [20:57] * FiatVictrix is now known as Jynaru [20:57] * ThanHopesToBeBack (~web-Guest@ip68-108-129-116.lv.lv.cox.net) has joined #pvpexalted [20:58] Ooooohhhhh, yeah. Are you ready? [20:58] wb [20:58] so down to 3.... [20:58] * ThanHopesToBeBack is now known as Thanos_ [20:58] not eating? [20:58] 3? [20:58] * Hikari is now known as Cicada [20:58] I just got back from eacint out with my father :-) [20:58] ah [20:58] you eat fast. [20:58] Will be leaving again when my friend gets in. [20:58] * Storyteller nods. [20:58] * Jynaru sighs. [20:58] Yeah, it was just the Golden Arches [20:58] actually, i've been considering whittling down the game to you 4 [20:59] Am I going to have to kill EVERYTHING myself? [20:59] Well, DT is here. [20:59] yup [20:59] * Jynaru counts. [20:59] And the Azure Assassin is here as well. [20:59] Mmmmm.... [20:59] Who four? [20:59] Cic, Jy, Tabs, Vanal [20:59] ten attacks a turn on person man. [20:59] What do you mean? Fewer players? [20:59] Ah, WOULD LOVE THAT! [21:00] Wouldn't mind having Manx in there though, is good RPer when around :-) [21:00] * Werlynn (~Werlynn@ool-182dcd08.dyn.optonline.net) has joined #pvpexalted [21:00] * Jydan would like to play sometime. :) [21:00] Manx RPs? [21:00] hey werlynn. [21:00] * Storyteller hasn't decided yet. [21:00] I will decide after thsi game ends. [21:00] Hello, Werlynn. [21:00] which is a good year, still. [21:00] * Storyteller wnats GOOD RP [21:00] :( [21:00] Maybe I am getting mixed up between Manx adn Werlynn> [21:00] * Storyteller shrugs. [21:01] Werlynn, you have your full essence pool, and your cloth thingy doesn't cost committed essence. [21:01] Killin time is upon us. [21:01] ok [21:01] BUt, you have to tell me when the bloody thing is on. [21:01] don't wear it all the time. [21:01] always? [21:01] ok [21:01] * Storyteller might have to think up social stigma then. [21:01] at least once you get back to the realm. [21:01] A bit like the Bronze Skin? [21:02] yea, only tala doesn't make any effort to hide it. [21:02] "Only see when blind. Like all Immaculates." :) [21:02] Cicada - The Azure Assassin [21:03] * Werlynn thought up a cool Abyssal name [21:03] I understand the double emphasis on ass. But since when has she been killing people? [21:03] Pre-Black Exaltation name was Rosalyn, so her title becomes Black Rose Princess [21:03] I know a guy called Kickassassassin [21:04] I was under the impression that she was an assassin. [21:04] everyone ready? [21:04] * Jynaru , should I ever play an Abyssal, will be something like "Bob" or "Mike." [21:04] Vanal's pseudonym ? Th etoughest SOB in the Realm [21:04] Ready as I am evergoing to be :-( [21:04] either that, or The Vanal [21:04] I'm going to NPC Maris. [21:04] * DarthTom is jacked up and good to go [21:04] * Werlynn mentioned to a couple individuals, but will say here: may be pondering an Abyssal game after the book comes out. [21:04] Tabius too I guess. [21:04] coo [21:04] Heh, which reminds me, my table top ST 'wants' me to play an Autocathonian :-) [21:05] Spiffy. [21:05] #pvpexaltedrp and rp2 [21:05] * Werlynn is now known as Tala [21:05] * DarthTom is now known as Vanal [21:05] Heh, yeah, had a tough time coming up with an idea..... [21:06] sdo you made Exalted Lenin ? [21:06] Vanal and Jynaru in rp#1 everyone else in rp#2 [21:06] I'll do the beginning thing in rp#1 [21:06] No, ended up doing a Centure ;-) [21:07] The guy is a combat medic as it were. [21:07] Has diagnostic gear and can put a cumulative Body Mending medicant on people. [21:08] He carries around his own folding 'Vat' in his horse body :-) (which is a lv5 artifact. [21:08] * Jynaru laughs! [21:08] And has Henchemen (at 5) so he can have 8 techs whenever he needs to swap out charms and stuff [21:08] Bantha tank! [21:09] Well it seems that if you want to increase anything other than Abilities and Virtues its like redesigning your body [21:09] or something. [21:09] I don't own Time of Tumalt so I am not 100% on the where and why's [21:10] * Jynaru shrugs. [21:10] But the ST liked the idea and helped put it together and gave his blessing so I hope it all works out; [21:10] Charms are all body modification. [21:10] But not ordinarily stats. [21:12] Hrmmmm [21:12] I thought it was anything that took more than a few days XPwise had to use the Vats, like Essence and Attributes, then Charms are added to that [21:13] Essence, yes. Charms, yes. [21:13] so...no Exalted Lenin ? [21:13] Attributes? Not normally. [21:14] Werlynn please read the logs when you're not here? ^_^ [21:15] Hrmmmm COOL [21:15] Cause the guy has 0 points of Personal Essence that is not already taken up by charms. [21:16] Remind me to come back and steal the statues for lawn ornaments. [21:16] A couple of points of Virtues and Some skills are all he needs before status [21:16] stats that is [21:17] It will be a long campaigne I am told ;-) [21:17] I am sure you guys have heard of KTS right? [21:17] KTS? [21:17] Werlynn, when Ete is ready to change back to Thursdays, you'll come back. :) [21:17] For 1 game? [21:17] * Jydan isn't going to be ending it as soon as he thought, apparently. [21:18] Kenetic Transfer System (its a Technocracy thing ;-) [21:19] * Jynaru shrugs. Yay for the rotes. Which spheres? [21:19]
