>>30915 add in stuff more ethnicities more resources it muxes and balances the resource needs for stuff and also makes like "early, normal, late" for factories like early arms fac uses different resources than late
and it also adds new units and balances them areound
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
for example instead of just having infantry and guard, you have infantry, regular and guard, with guard only unlocking at machineguns and it also makes tanks much more effective.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
And it mixes how the late game great war system works, allowing the victors of each war win much more territory from the losers if they win
And it adds more national ideas, the "order freedom" stuff and the abiltiy to switch between them andm uch more oh, more social and political stuff, like "immigration" and "minority rights" etc
Looks like it adds a fair bit, I'll think about using it.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
You should, it makes having a large standing army way more worth it and the great power dynamic mixes it changes make it a lot more interesting in terms of alternate history also yeah, way more events and stuff

I don't know if I can post on /moe/ while streaming on periscope/twitter so when I do start streaming, I'm just gonna post "streaming" on /moe/ and the stream will show up on my twitter a minute or two after that here's the twitter it'll be streaming on https://twitter.com/idlematts it's probably gonna start around 4:30 (1.5 hours from now) but idk the protest supposedly starts at 4 but i've never been to a protest like this before and the rally doesn't start until 5

European comments instead of fullstops are always confusing, especially at work. I have to type out invoices and getting europeans convention numbers is sometimes a pain.
Americans also suck on invoicing they always put the date wrong. the system doesn't accept american dates but if they have something that legit fits you can figure out what date it is supposed to be if it isn't obvious it is an american company
That's my normie twitter for when I get my public face going Not that I tweet a lot of my weeb twitter though I just retweet stuff generally I'd tweet more if I had followers Hopefully streaming the protest live will get me followers
i'll just report on stuff that isn't directly trump if i just talk like "this protest was pretty lame everyone was a loser" he'll retweet that shit i'll get big! so many followers!

>>30973 Oh Rika, there are two misunderstandings I want to clear, not that they're desperately important.
1 was that cap you didn't know the context off, regarding "running around as a lewd whore". That was in reference to playing Pokemon Moon, where I had the "trap-like" outfit. 2 was Kirara thinking Iw was on E-3. I'm not, I'm on E-2, but I read about that debuff mechanic in E-3 on normal/hard and wanted to let him know I thought it was dumb
Oh, I see, I finished E-2 normal recently, it wasn't too bad. I'm currently deciding what difficulty I want to do E-3 on, and if I want to bother farming for the second sub. Those two new subs aren't very good so I may not bother. They aren't particularly cute either.
The combined fleet isn't that bad. You just need to use boss support and either 1/3 or 2/2 on your LBAS. You'll get A rank most of the time if you do that. S rank is probably out of reach since it's combined fleet.
>>30980 I was under the impression that you were only allowed to use 1 of them. If there's a way to sortie the second, I was not aware of it and did not use it.
I used the top route.
>>30980 Yeah. 1 fighter 3 bombers or 2 fighters 2 bombers. I used 2/2 but I was on normal which means my AP requirement was higher than yours will be.
I am the sort of person to pick only a few and use them forever even if they aren't the best, I should probably play with other boats but I feel less motivation with other characters!
That is more than what I manage to do! I went out once to get something to eat and saw a hot air balloon. came back home. Thinking about what to do. Decided to read while thinking and now it is 10pm
>>31021 How do you DO it? I woke up after about 2.5 hours sleep and decided to start moving and working on my readings again. and I couldn't do it. I just felt too disgusting. I had to go back to bed.
But yeah, when you do stuff with little sleep and force yourself to do that often enough, it becomes quite easy to be really functional even with the tiniest amount of sleep. Just avoid driving a car if you pull several no-sleepers in a row.

Marsh-chan
Some people seem to think it does. But I've also heard that if you miss one sleep block by even a few minutes it screws you up for days.
Those "sleep hacks" are something thatmight work, if you need to crunch something or shit writing, coding etc work that isn't physical labour and allows you to take the required naps when the time comes, so also kinda requires "working from home" But even then, you are just fooling your brain and body that you ahve rested and the gained "extra" hours most likely will be spent fixing minor mistakes a fully awake brain and body wouldn't do. Also, since you are tired your brain and body will require more energy, so you will eat more and gain weight. And add to that the other lack of sleep issues and you have >gaining weight >worse performance >decreased resistance to illness and diseases et al

And uh. When I worked in that vegetable factory I had to use a nail gun a fair bit to make up the shipping boxes.
I bet your dad just took out out a couple of times to chop up some small logs. It's not like you were heaving up huge planks of timber in a lumber yard.
The nail gun I used helping my dad build a fence, and yes, he lifted all the heavy stuff. I used a chainsaw during a tornado cleanup volunteer thingy my church did, and I had to haul some of the log parts too. And I've used it a few times helping my mom clean up logs and fallen trees from her property from storms and stuff. I had to pick up log and tree parts there too!

no fuckin clue, hope they finish up the investigation soon i've received no bill for january, but after paying the december bill, there was a 506 dollar charge added to the account, but not in the form of a bill because ive received no bill. bill history shows no bill for january. and a letter saying that there's probably an error and they're going to investigate and then i got mailed a cutoff notice for not paying something that i couldn't pay because it was on hold and now i'm getting late fees added onto this month's bill for not paying it and i can't even pay this month's bill because it wants a full payment, which would be 700 dollars because of the anomalous balance it's really dumb i could just pay it but i dont want to fuckin pay 700 dollars and then have the investigation show "oh yeah the meter wasn't right you really only needed to pay 150 that month" because ive never had a bill more than 150, and i dont believe a 500 dollar bill would be possible if i tried

>>31391 Yeah. I had bunch of that in high school too. I guess it was part of some sort of push to show that BOOKS CAN BE RELATEABLE. And down to earth and about real life problems that teenagers face or some crap like that.

Anno
>>31408 Because at this point we weren't really European anymore but not really Canadian. It was that weird transitional period where there wasn't a solid concept of culture. To say we were doing a proper indoctrination into European culture would be a misnomer since we were already shying away from the old world cultural values, but we were still totally embracing old world cultural values by trying to enforce other cultures on native peoples.

I'm actually pretty close to getting my arts degree. And now I've decided what to major in I just have to smash out a bunch of the prerequisites. So I'm taking three lit classes at the moment.
Which results in me giving up my weekend to read mediocre novels about life in the bush.

And even if an arts degree is pretty useless, it might lead to better things than frying chicken while I finish the rest of my studies.

Well law/arts is five years. And I've done about two years worth of subjects. Give or take. Mostly arts stuff though. So that's another three years of law. Plus an IT bachelors is three years.
And that's not counting extra stuff I'd have to do if I actually wanted to get a license to practice law.
I might try to get into cyber law. Maybe. That's one idea. MARSH-CHAN -- DEFENDER OF THE INTERNET
To practice law you have to pass several additional tests. There's like a theory exam which is the main thing, and then also background checks stuff like that. I think it takes about a year all up. I don't really remember. I've never really wanted to be a lawyer anyway so all that is secondary.
This isn't just a half thought out pipe dream. There are a few places around the country that have a combined law/IT option, including some very prestigious ones. So after I finish the arts stuff at this crappy local tin-pot university I'm gonna start applying. Maybe move to Sydney.
So everybody who thought I was just a useless NEET will know I'm actually super smart an' stuff.
Marsh-chan
Nah.
There's heaps of stuff you can do with a law degree besides actually becoming a lawyer. Both public and private sector. And combined with the IT stuff I could lead down some really interesting paths. Policy making. Security of important infrastructure. All that good stuff.s

Now you're a total badass.

Marsh-chan
Yes. Its crucial. You need to be at rock bottom to fill yourself with enough self disgust to push you into reaching your goals. If you haven't yet found the lowest point of bedrock in your life, I'd recommend drinking a bottle of absinthe per day. that will get you there pretty quickly.

You know one thing always bothers me about Alien. Why didn'tt hey detach their cargo before blowing their shit up? Shouldn't have been that hard, leave it there for the company to salvage and just blow up the ship, thus lessening the losses and possibly keepinh your job. >>31806 Oh right the AI and computer directives. >>31806 No they didn't they just had "if meet interesting things, bring them back, crew expendable
FormerRei !GURPSRWiTs

>>31805 In the Alien novel it states that Wayland Yutani >>31810 no idea but its cited on the alien wiki anyways if you read between the lines you can tell that Wayland Yutani totally knew about the Alien. >>31811 they knew that it needed to put an egg into a person, the android was supposed to be able to deal with everything also why >>31812
do people actually read those cashgrab movie novelisations?
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>31808 then why the fuck did they not send a proper team to pick the eggs up No they didn't they just knew that any interesting tech or organism find would be profitable even in Alien Isolation, W-Y didn't exactly know what it was, just that it aws deadly and profitable potentionally
>>31808 Then explain ALiens if they knew that the plaent had the eggs in there, why did they only send in people to investigate the derelict after having COLONIALSIED IT FOR YEARS when they had heard Ripley's report?
FormerRei !GURPSRWiTs
fuck accidentally clicked done >>31812 no idea, when was the last time you saw Alien by the way? Anyways its not my job to convince you that Weylan(d)-Yutani already knew about the xenomorph, but that is what most people believe. >>31815 they're movies, they don't have to make sense (unfortunately)
I am watching alien atm and last time was maybe a year ago same for aliens
Simply said, W-Y has most likely "grab any unknown tech or organism by anymeans necessary" policy I mean, in A: isolation they buy the whole station and go "fuck everyone, as long as we can get this whatever it is"
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>31813 them knowing about it, just makes no sense considering the plot and events of the first two movies simply said
But that aside, how the alienwiki explains how the facehugger actually grows is quite interesting shame the movies never imply it. >lump of cancer causing cells that make the body grow the chestburster naturally
But there should be a space game, where you salvage shit and find weird stuff like aliens rogue AI or just a ship with hull breach basically, setting of dead space or alien or alien isolation, but without the main point being "what went wrong" but picking up and fixing and looting derelict vessels
well basically, but it would be nice if it wasn't all retro graphics and 2d
Anno
I mean you could do like Alien: Isolation style environments, and just shrug off the plot details.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
yeah, something like the survival games, but instead of planets you have ships and wll no silly hunger and shit meters and you just go look into signals or "hey go pick up this shit and haul it back here" requests as a salvage ship/crew and occasionally it is just "fix engines, drive back" and occasionally you find a protoss fleet carrier with zergs inside it or shit
Well, this has been a real productive day I watched all the konosuba that's out so far I found out that somehow Richard Spencer has a twitter account when Milo was bannu >>31826 Yeah I watched that between the seasons
Okay the W-Y did know there was a derelict and something dangerous there, but they didn't exactly know what. Just whatt he transmission had in it. that much is said in the movie, but easily missable, since iti s just on the computer screen.

Although I'm a bit bothered that he didn't do his annual Anti-Valentines Day radio special this year. I think this might be the first time he didn't do it in his 21 years of radio.
FormerRei !GURPSRWiTs
We used to have a bunch of cassette tape recordings of his radio show, but my mom threw away all of them except for one (as far as I know, no more showed up during the move).

If the government calls me and is like "hey you gotta do this thing, otherwise we're gonna fine you a million dollars" there's gonna be literally no way for me to find out
>>31898 There's been articles and such that dive into this aspect for a while, it's pretty neat. Kind of like how nice some parts of The Lord of the Rings looked because of the hybrid special effects they used. Then The Hobbit came along and a lot of it didn't have the same impact because it was just entirely CGI.

found an interesting manga http://bato.to/comic/_/comics/masturbation-count-r20786 >A city has been cursed by a lust demon and everyone in the city has the number of times they've masturbated in their life floating above their head
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Oh god Hikikomori for life
FormerRei !GURPSRWiTs
>>31903 They have the guy who masturbates the most hang out at the entrance of the town to mitigate the shock.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
do they get paid? also imagine the awkwardness in some work place or shit >friday say 1000 >monday 1500
>you enter a town where your characters masturbation count floats over your head >some player goes, shiiit, what fontsize cause this gonna be a big number
FormerRei !GURPSRWiTs
>>31909 I'm not sure if I would actually have them go there, because I'm sure if I did we would all get into a huge argument. >>31911 I would not let a player play an immortal elf, at least not any time soon. I don't want to have to deal with high level characters. Also I'm pretty sure that elves are supposed to have a low sex drive.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Oh come on, it would be ridiculous like someone playing some immortal elf character could really throw their character around
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Oh aliens had a Shining reference never noticed that before
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>31910 yeah, but once you have lived some thousand years, those numbers gonna staaack maybe dwarf would be worse, though or something
why would an elf have a low sex drive Why would being an elf have any influence on your sex dricve
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
because, when you are naturally immortal, if you say sprout kids every few years, eventually BILLION IMMORTALS bam there goes the planet so basically, just like in real world the longer you live, the less you generally breed. so elves most likely wouldn't breed that much and their pregnancy most likely would also take time.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
of course sentient beings would still do stuff that is fun and... welp that wouldn't mean elves wouldn't do 24/7 orgies with safe-magic-sex enabled
FormerRei !GURPSRWiTs
>>31915 I'm like 99% sure that D&D elves aren't immortal (as in live indefinitely as long as they aren't killed).
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
Yeah, but generally elves live like 1000 years or shit
FormerRei !GURPSRWiTs
>>31918 I'm in the middle of looking it up right now but I'm pretty sure sure 1000 is the high end of an elf's natural lifespan. >>31920 not in D&D
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
and usually are biologically immortal
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
>>31919 that doesn't still refute any of my points. live they 1000, 10 000 or 500 years they are sentient beings who most likely have similiar biological responses as humans to faciliate drive for breeding somewhat as in "sechs feels good" so a 500 year elf would still most likely have a high number on m-count
FormerRei !GURPSRWiTs
Okay the maximum age of a D&D elf with no class features or other special shit that changes their lifespan has // is 750.
FormerRei !GURPSRWiTs
In D&D 3.5.
FormerRei !GURPSRWiTs
Also I'm pretty sure that there are rules (non homebrew) that I could use to calculate average masturbation counts for different races. >>31925 well yes, do you think I'm going to let people make pun pun? I would also likely not allow psionics. At least not initially. >>31925 I know a DM who is much worse than me about that.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
wow now you dictate how the players can make their characters what a bad DM
>let's go to camelot >on the otherhand let's not go to camelot, it's a silly place a game by rei

>>31927 I meant more of when they're researching something and roll a knowledge check "this poison comes from the city of x in the country of y, incidentally city x was cursed by a lust demon and a magic number counting how many times you've masturbated floats your head if you go there, it affects everyone who is within the city limits".
When you make your character you have to define their One Unique Thing, the thing that makes them stand out. They can range from purely fun to campaign-shaping.
FormerRei !GURPSRWiTs
>>31931 Its made by the primary designer of D&D third edition and the lead designer of D&D fourth edition.
PAN's character, for instance, is a holy paladin whose god he prays to is dice. >>31939 This could definitely be a One Unique Thing but I imagine it could be very unpleasant to roleplay, haha

I would basically only run 3.5 or something else d20 system based that isn't super far from the base srd. Well I would also run GURPS, maybe. Although i have told my friends that if they buy me a hard copy of the book I would need to run a game in a system that I would be willing to run at least one game in any system. Like FATAL for example.
FormerRei !GURPSRWiTs
For anyone not familiar with FATAL this should give you all you need to know. https://1d4chan.org/wiki/FATAL
Also mousing over links is part of the experience since err mousing over sentences or portions of them that have been turned into links, because the page it links to is often // I'm having a terrible time expressing myself in text form today
oh yeah ton how did you farm the axe at all isnt th e event stupid hard

>>31949 It is insanely hard yes I got half my vajras for one axe by using full elixirs half the time on my extremes when suddenly a flip gave me an axe
FormerRei !GURPSRWiTs
heh, I forgot about some of these awful magic items >Armor of Jewy Jewbacca: "Whosoever dons this armor will acquire a nose twice the size and a manhood half the size. Further, the wearer will become extremely greedy and fight to the death for one silver piece. Finally, the wearer acquires 2 inches of hair all over their body, resulting in halving their Facial Charisma and Bodily Attractiveness. While hairy, the wearer must bathe every 1d6 hours or smell foul." There are three other armors just like this which turn the wearer into an ethnic stereotype with no benefits whatsoever. According to Byron, this was supposed to be "controversial humor". So funny everyone forgot to laugh.
FormerRei !GURPSRWiTs
Oh wow, I found a game even worse than FATAL. https://1d4chan.org/wiki/VTNL

Apparently cats react to brain freeze in similar ways to humans. I guess it's kind of unsurprising when you think about it, but it's still kind of neat.
TN !PcAPtAiNJo
but do cats eat cold things that much even`?
Anno
Well the clips of brainfrozen cats seem to have them licking cold yoghurt or ice cream. So they probably don't, but like with milk and cream, they really like the other milk-based products.
