- [2017-11-02 07:40:16] <Shem> The "You have been auto-set to away" and "You are no longer set to away" messages should have a line break before them, in my opinion. When they're not separated by line breaks it gives the impression that no time has passed since the last message
- [2017-11-02 07:41:33] <Shem> and another tiny nitpick - you can't have "/blah" be both a command in the IRC client program and a text-command to the bots in the room (/kill X)
- [2017-11-02 07:42:03] <Shem> for /kill to work, it would have to be a function implemented in the IRC client itself
- [2017-11-02 07:42:52] <Shem> actually maybe it could still work, if she tinkered with her own client to make this command go to her list of bots and delete the specified name...
- [2017-11-02 07:43:34] <Shem> but in chats in this server, for example, when people use commands for our bots the prefix character is _ or ! or % for a reason
- [2017-11-02 07:47:44] <abyssonym> are you even allowed to send messages that start with a forward slash in IRC
- [2017-11-02 07:48:21] <abyssonym> the protocol might not allow it
- [2017-11-02 07:48:31] <Shem> /sure

- [2017-11-02 07:59:35] <Shemetz> so, it's a copypasta? a meme?

- [2017-11-02 09:20:55] <Cyrix> that kenzi tries to socialise? wtf?
- [2017-11-02 09:21:10] <Cyrix> what with her that people push her away?
- [2017-11-02 09:21:40] <VereorNox> If Kenzie is the main character

- [2017-11-02 09:21:52] <Cyrix> The only question mark is 10-59, but I’m suspicious they’re okay. Heart_Shaped_Pupil: I already found them. they’re alive and well. Houndstooth: Did you? ok. good. great.
- [2017-11-02 09:21:57] <VereorNox> A main character that keeps doing the right thing but is universally hated

- [2017-11-02 09:22:34] <Cyrix> bit much kenzie
- [2017-11-02 09:22:52] <Cyrix> dont go.... full exposition on what you thought it was for you and state that like that

- [2017-11-02 09:24:02] <Cyrix> and her trigger defo handicapped her in some way
- [2017-11-02 09:24:13] <Cyrix> most likely physically?
- [2017-11-02 09:24:30] <Cyrix> She doesnt seem so socially stunted - just a bit awkward, but overall nice
- [2017-11-02 09:24:37] <Cyrix> must be something which really freaks people out
- [2017-11-02 09:24:46] <Cyrix> she got called optics early on....
- [2017-11-02 09:24:58] <Hierophant> HSP seems to be the most sociable out of all the people we've seen so far. I'd not describe her as awkward.
- [2017-11-02 09:25:03] <Hierophant> Also yeah, I'm fairly sure Optics is her cape name
- [2017-11-02 09:25:11] <Cyrix> maybe she has no eyes/face anymore?
- [2017-11-02 09:25:25] <Cyrix> yeah - maybe its a hint towards surveilliance spy tech?
- [2017-11-02 09:25:44] <Cyrix> or at least a 'hacker' kind of thinker/tinker

- [2017-11-02 09:27:16] <VereorNox> Kenzie = Cyrix confirmed
- [2017-11-02 09:27:29] <Hierophant> Sorry, my bad. Aven was frontline, HSP was backline.
- [2017-11-02 09:27:44] <Cyrix> soooo has her power to do with some or the big players in the end? Dragon an AI would be the obvious first guess
- [2017-11-02 09:27:48] <Cyrix> *of
- [2017-11-02 09:27:53] <Tadpole> I wonder how many of these cameos/references I'm missing out on due to not having been on this network for a while...
- [2017-11-02 09:28:21] <Hierophant> The typing style doesn't fit Dragon, and the references to her being a Ward in Baltimore makes no sense in that context.
- [2017-11-02 09:28:29] → Wellwick joined (uid211357@hathersage.irccloud.com)
- [2017-11-02 09:28:35] <Cyrix> I am offering myself to you and you would be stupid to turn me down. use me. please.
- [2017-11-02 09:28:38] — Cyrix cringes
- [2017-11-02 09:28:46] <Cyrix> thats not creepy at all Kenzie
- [2017-11-02 09:28:50] <Cyrix> to hear a 12 year old say that
- [2017-11-02 09:29:08] <Cyrix> ... thats almost my innuendo kinda levels bad xD
- [2017-11-02 09:29:19] <Hierophant> ?
- [2017-11-02 09:29:21] <Cyrix> dunno if she did it by choice
- [2017-11-02 09:29:25] <VereorNox> only if you're dirty, Cyrix :|
- [2017-11-02 09:29:26] <Tadpole> The double entendre of the words “use me” might be lost on a 13yo
- [2017-11-02 09:29:29] <Hierophant> Well she just wants to help out from what I interpret
- [2017-11-02 09:29:35] <Cyrix> Houndstooth: Sure. Absolutely. Houndstooth: I can contact you here?
- [2017-11-02 09:29:37] <Cyrix> oh fuck you!
- [2017-11-02 09:29:38] <Hierophant> So it's not really exploitative
- [2017-11-02 09:29:39] <Tadpole> Well not so much entendre as dirty interpretation
- [2017-11-02 09:29:53] <Hierophant> That didn't even occur to me when I read the chapter
- [2017-11-02 09:29:55] <Cyrix> "we contact you! no need to call us! 100%! We got your number"
- [2017-11-02 09:29:56] <Hierophant> But I see it now
- [2017-11-02 09:30:00] <Hierophant> you guys are a bad influence
- [2017-11-02 09:30:29] <Tadpole> Hierophant: It took me by surprise and I needed a second to see the less innocent meaning and realise that's probably what a teenager would have meant
- [2017-11-02 09:30:29] <Cyrix> Heart_Shaped_Pupil: The high point of the conversation was toward the end when he said don’t call us we’ll call you.
- [2017-11-02 09:30:33] <Cyrix> oh wow and she noticed too
- [2017-11-02 09:30:38] <Cyrix> thats so sad :(
- [2017-11-02 09:30:51] <Cyrix> god. That kinda hurts me to read it
- [2017-11-02 09:30:56] <Cyrix> I know how she feels :/
- [2017-11-02 09:31:07] <Tadpole> HSP for MC
- [2017-11-02 09:31:14] <Cyrix> It doesn’t matter. I’m choosing to view this in a positive light. My day has to get better from here.
- [2017-11-02 09:31:19] <Cyrix> <3 shes so cool
- [2017-11-02 09:31:36] <Cyrix> Tattletale took on a new mission that’s taking her to Earth N. She’ll be busy for a short while.
- [2017-11-02 09:31:38] <Cyrix> !!!!!!!
- [2017-11-02 09:31:38] <Cyrix> TT
- [2017-11-02 09:31:46] <Cyrix> earth N?
- [2017-11-02 09:31:51] <Cyrix> do we know whats that about?
- [2017-11-02 09:32:09] <Cyrix> woooooooooooooooah
- [2017-11-02 09:32:11] <Cyrix> wait a minute
- [2017-11-02 09:32:12] <Cyrix> It is. Information about my new teammates is key.
- [2017-11-02 09:32:21] <Hierophant> I never even noticed the bad feeling that Houndtooth might have generated by saying don't call us we'll call you
- [2017-11-02 09:32:26] <Cyrix> so all the people *in* the chat know about her new teammate as well?
- [2017-11-02 09:32:30] <Hierophant> I mean, to my mind that's a perfectly valid way of doing things, and lots of people tell me similar
- [2017-11-02 09:32:35] <Cyrix> She shared all the data she has on them with the whole chat?
- [2017-11-02 09:32:40] <Cyrix> okay
- [2017-11-02 09:32:43] <Cyrix> thats like
- [2017-11-02 09:32:54] <Cyrix> that chat isnt a chat with normal people
- [2017-11-02 09:32:55] <Cyrix> no way
- [2017-11-02 09:33:09] <m1el> Cyx, finish the chapter, please.
- [2017-11-02 09:33:09] <Cukr> :D
- [2017-11-02 09:33:14] <Cyrix> maybe shes a master? and those are mastered people?
- [2017-11-02 09:33:18] <Cyrix> but that doesnt fit?
- [2017-11-02 09:33:20] <Hierophant> >Worm >normal people
- [2017-11-02 09:33:22] <Hierophant> wow
- [2017-11-02 09:33:33] <Hierophant> Since when was the last time someone on Worm was even remotely close to normal? :P
- [2017-11-02 09:33:43] <Hierophant> (Okay, there's a lot, but you get the drift)
- [2017-11-02 09:33:50] <Cyrix> maybe shes software tinker and those 'people' are not 'people' but just like- some sort of assistance systems?
- [2017-11-02 09:33:57] <Cyrix> it would fit with her lonelyness
- [2017-11-02 09:34:04] <Cyrix> and
- [2017-11-02 09:34:06] <Cyrix> gotta read more
- [2017-11-02 09:34:22] <Cyrix> Heart_Shaped_Pupil: Bye C. Heart_Shaped_Pupil: Rawr. K is here. everyone run away! >:3
- [2017-11-02 09:34:23] <Cyrix> awwww
- [2017-11-02 09:34:32] <Cyrix> shes hurting you assholes
- [2017-11-02 09:34:34] <Cyrix> :(
- [2017-11-02 09:34:45] <Cyrix> someone give her a real hug
- [2017-11-02 09:35:08] <Cyrix> A is eating too. she practically living at library now I think.!
- [2017-11-02 09:35:10] <Cyrix> !
- [2017-11-02 09:35:19] <Cyrix> A is feeding on information if anything
- [2017-11-02 09:35:21] <Cyrix> like crazy
- [2017-11-02 09:35:22] <Hierophant> Keep in mind that C just rejected her last chapter
- [2017-11-02 09:35:33] <Cyrix> almost if she isnt from bet and needs to learn all there is about the crap she got dropped into
- [2017-11-02 09:35:45] <Cyrix> rejected? He was suspecious of her
- [2017-11-02 09:35:47] <Cyrix> rightly so
- [2017-11-02 09:36:09] <Hierophant> There's a running theory that A (Mangled_Wings) is a Damsel of Distress clone
- [2017-11-02 09:36:15] <Cyrix> Tattletale is out of town. They probbaly won’t attack without her around to act. There is a repreive. I got some info on her late last night too
- [2017-11-02 09:36:20] <Hierophant> I'm not sure if I fully believe it, but I can buy it happening.
- [2017-11-02 09:36:34] <Cyrix> TT being *away* is a stablizing element? TT is attacking and moving on the regular
- [2017-11-02 09:36:39] <Cyrix> also keeping a tight ship it seems like
- [2017-11-02 09:37:58] <Cyrix> Heart_Shaped_Pupil: /twiddle thumbs twiddle thumbs: Unknown Command Heart_Shaped_Pupil: Yeah
- [2017-11-02 09:38:11] <Cyrix> I am crying a little bit in side
- [2017-11-02 09:38:16] <Cyrix> like- twelf liters a second
- [2017-11-02 09:38:25] <Cyrix> maybe a bit more
- [2017-11-02 09:38:54] <Cyrix> You said teammate related things were important.
- [2017-11-02 09:39:07] <Cyrix> that sounds like a neural net that just got new input a few seconds ago
- [2017-11-02 09:39:11] <Cyrix> I am so supicious
- [2017-11-02 09:39:12] <Cyrix> xD
- [2017-11-02 09:39:24] <Cyrix> everyone is a nilbog monster and AIs are everywhere!
- [2017-11-02 09:39:25] <Cyrix> rwar
- [2017-11-02 09:39:48] <Cyrix> Welds an ex-teammate?
- [2017-11-02 09:39:54] <Cyrix> where was weld before he transfered?
- [2017-11-02 09:40:10] <m1el> Chicago iirc
- [2017-11-02 09:40:35] <Tadpole> Boston?
- [2017-11-02 09:40:46] <Cyrix> boston area - according to wiki
- [2017-11-02 09:40:48] <Cyrix> has accent there
- [2017-11-02 09:40:52] <m1el> oh, I was wrong :
- [2017-11-02 09:40:56] <Cyrix> okay - crazy theory time
- [2017-11-02 09:41:25] <Cyrix> I think K has the same power as Richter. If she is from that area then thats the next best area to where newfoundland once sunk.

- [2017-11-02 09:41:47] <Hierophant> I'm not sure I follow the connection with Boston and Newfoundland
- [2017-11-02 09:41:52] <Cyrix> brb!
- [2017-11-02 09:41:56] <Cyrix> I need to read more :D
- [2017-11-02 09:42:01] <Tadpole> Yes.
- [2017-11-02 09:42:35] <Cyrix> ahar
- [2017-11-02 09:42:41] <Cyrix> admin time! aka Hi Dragon!
- [2017-11-02 09:42:48] <VereorNox> oi Wellwick
- [2017-11-02 09:42:50] <VereorNox> new glow worm
- [2017-11-02 09:42:54] <VereorNox> people are losing their mind
- [2017-11-02 09:43:00] <Cyrix> maybe thats about the time she read the messages from Sydney
- [2017-11-02 09:43:24] <Cyrix> You can call me by my name or just ‘shower’. Heart_Shaped_Pupil: Hi Shower. What can I do for you?
- [2017-11-02 09:43:30] <Cyrix> She knows shes talking with Dragon.
- [2017-11-02 09:43:42] <Cyrix> she calls everyone else by first name and never by capename
- [2017-11-02 09:43:54] <VereorNox> Or y'know
- [2017-11-02 09:43:56] <Cyrix> but she chooses to call 'graham' "shower"
- [2017-11-02 09:44:16] <Hierophant> She could just only call someone by their first name if she's comfortable with them
- [2017-11-02 09:44:21] <VereorNox> ^
- [2017-11-02 09:44:31] <VereorNox> Evil site administration does't deserve familarity.
- [2017-11-02 09:44:43] <VereorNox> Seize the servers of production!
- [2017-11-02 09:44:43] <Hierophant> How is PHO admins evil tho
- [2017-11-02 09:44:46] <Cyrix> I was trying to help. We’ve been updating the wikis as much as we can and three-fifths of the work is gathering data that’s helpful to others. Shower: We?
- [2017-11-02 09:44:56] <Cyrix> yes... shower. what? We? That switch from I to we
- [2017-11-02 09:45:07] <VereorNox> All administration is evil, Hierophant, don't you know?
- [2017-11-02 09:45:12] <Cyrix> and in relation to a gathering task - sifting tons of information
- [2017-11-02 09:45:22] <Hierophant> You're just mad your favorite character Void_Cowboy got banned :|
- [2017-11-02 09:45:30] <Cyrix> those other chatmembers are maybe other tinkers or thinkers or AI or teacher drones?
- [2017-11-02 09:45:32] <VereorNox> YOU WOT
- [2017-11-02 09:46:04] <Hierophant> I know, I know, it's a travesty he got banned, we get it, you're a Greg fanboy
- [2017-11-02 09:46:13] <Cyrix> Heart_Shaped_Pupil: Nobody else. It was me alone. I can fix it right now. Heart_Shaped_Pupil: How bad of a problem is this? Is there any leeway?
- [2017-11-02 09:46:16] <Cyrix> this is so sad
- [2017-11-02 09:46:18] <VereorNox> You take that back, Hierophant!
- [2017-11-02 09:46:22] <VereorNox> Them's fighting words!
- [2017-11-02 09:46:25] <Cyrix> those others are bots/AIs
- [2017-11-02 09:46:30] <Cyrix> I am fairly certain
- [2017-11-02 09:46:54] <Hierophant> Eh, I didn't intepret it as sad.
- [2017-11-02 09:47:02] <Hierophant> It's a serious but not heartbreaking problem, and she resolves to fix it right away.
- [2017-11-02 09:47:15] <Hierophant> It's more sad in the context that she's trying to do something good, but resource limitations have scuttled her only chance at being able to help
- [2017-11-02 09:47:27] <Cyrix> Toxicfish216: BusinessOrPleasureBot disconnecting… Toxicfish has left the conversation.
- [2017-11-02 09:47:30] <Cyrix> oh god dammit
- [2017-11-02 09:47:33] <Hierophant> I think it's fairly clear that HSP is desperate to get involved and do something, it's why she has her hobby project, and it's why she talked to HT and offered her services to him
- [2017-11-02 09:47:33] <Cyrix> thats so sad
- [2017-11-02 09:47:38] <Cyrix> oh maaan :(
- [2017-11-02 09:47:42] <VereorNox> No not Toxicfish :(
- [2017-11-02 09:47:47] <VereorNox> My Wormverse SI is gone :(
- [2017-11-02 09:48:02] <Wellwick> Hey Nox, gonna get breakfast and read now
- [2017-11-02 09:48:13] <Cyrix> oh god she had a hugbot
- [2017-11-02 09:48:18] <Cyrix> oh man
- [2017-11-02 09:48:32] <Cyrix> no wonder others thought she might be weird
- [2017-11-02 09:48:45] <Cyrix> for her people and code must be flowing fluently
- [2017-11-02 09:48:49] <Hierophant> Nothing wrong with having a hugbot, IMO
- [2017-11-02 09:48:59] <Cyrix> the differnce between people and code I mean
- [2017-11-02 09:49:09] <m1el> I would only accept an IRL hugbot
- [2017-11-02 09:49:17] <Cyrix> she said she got better with things - no wonder others might have thought shes weird
- [2017-11-02 09:49:23] <Hierophant> What's wrong with internet hugs
- [2017-11-02 09:49:36] <m1el> they're not real q_q
- [2017-11-02 09:49:52] <Cyrix> Heart_Shaped_Pupil: Haha. No. They’re as dumb as dog farts.
- [2017-11-02 09:50:12] <Cyrix> yeah, you are cleary not using cuss language to compensate for your emotional turmoil
- [2017-11-02 09:50:25] <Cyrix> oh wow
- [2017-11-02 09:50:49] <Cyrix> Heart_Shaped_Pupil: If they were A.I. I could be a potential S-class threat.
- [2017-11-02 09:50:54] <Cyrix> they were so AI
- [2017-11-02 09:51:04] <Cyrix> and she so knows the classification system
- [2017-11-02 09:51:11] <Cyrix> and plays with it -
- [2017-11-02 09:51:16] <Hierophant> They're not really intelligent though.
- [2017-11-02 09:51:17] <Cyrix> or not with
- [2017-11-02 09:51:18] <Cyrix> in it
- [2017-11-02 09:51:23] <Hierophant> I mean they're responding by trigger phrases and stuff
- [2017-11-02 09:51:31] <Cyrix> Heart_Shaped_Pupil: it’s hobby programming. Not my focus or specialty.
- [2017-11-02 09:51:38] <Cyrix> yeah. That diversion tactic is working
- [2017-11-02 09:51:39] <Hierophant> m1el: I mean. Internet things are real.
- [2017-11-02 09:51:41] <Cyrix> cleeaaaaaaaarly
- [2017-11-02 09:51:43] <Cyrix> so subtle
- [2017-11-02 09:51:46] <Hierophant> Like, I'm not real just because you only know me over the internet.
- [2017-11-02 09:51:55] <Hierophant> Cyrix: It could be true though! Like, what makes you think it isn't?
- [2017-11-02 09:52:09] <Cyrix> I built a server to manage any CPU load from the more complicated search bots. Can I donate it or something?
- [2017-11-02 09:52:11] <Cyrix> wait what?
- [2017-11-02 09:52:19] <Cyrix> she can not only build software but hardware too?
- [2017-11-02 09:52:23] <Cyrix> she triggered really young?
- [2017-11-02 09:52:28] <Cyrix> huh
- [2017-11-02 09:52:34] <Cyrix> breadth and depth
- [2017-11-02 09:52:48] <Cyrix> Heart_Shaped_Pupil: I emulated what you guys run and set it up intermediary. Shower: I don’t even think that’s possible.
- [2017-11-02 09:52:50] <Cyrix> she can dragon
- [2017-11-02 09:52:57] <Cyrix> because she has richters shards or is a bud off it
- [2017-11-02 09:53:27] <Cyrix> and she triggered young and is lonely and goddamit dragon you are normally so good with people but she scares you and dang noone reaches out to her
- [2017-11-02 09:53:29] <Cyrix> :(
- [2017-11-02 09:53:32] <Cyrix> I am so upset
- [2017-11-02 09:54:04] <Cyrix> Heart_Shaped_Pupil: You can have it. It’s probably better than what you have. Shower: Absolutely not. The security issues with that would be horrendous. It would allow snooping, spoofing- no. Take it down ASAP
- [2017-11-02 09:54:05] <Cyrix> yeah
- [2017-11-02 09:54:07] <Cyrix> dragon is scared
- [2017-11-02 09:54:17] <Tadpole> The bots You seem convinced that every admin is Dragon?
- [2017-11-02 09:54:18] <m1el> Hiero, I understand that you're real. I'm saying internet hugs aren't real for me. maybe that's correlated with the fact that I don't take any offense from text on the interwebs.
- [2017-11-02 09:54:18] <Cyrix> of restrictions of ascalon or someone fucking with her mind
- [2017-11-02 09:54:29] <Tadpole> Oops, ignore the first two words
- [2017-11-02 09:54:57] <Hierophant> Realtalk
- [2017-11-02 09:55:01] <Hierophant> shower might just be a rando PHO admin
- [2017-11-02 09:55:05] <Hierophant> Dragon wouldn't be confused by the chatbots either
- [2017-11-02 09:55:10] <Hierophant> Whereas Shower was
- [2017-11-02 09:55:13] <Cyrix> I was pretty sure when K did address the admin with her nick and not his supposed real name
- [2017-11-02 09:55:27] <Hierophant> <Hierophant> She could just only call someone by their first name if she's comfortable with them
- [2017-11-02 09:55:30] <Tadpole> Seems like too small a datapoint to base the entire conclusion on
- [2017-11-02 09:55:33] <Hierophant> yep
- [2017-11-02 09:55:38] <Cyrix> Shower: We’ll talk before the day is out. I need to make sure we have a handle on everything involved here. Shower has left the conversation. Heart_Shaped_Pupil: okay then.
- [2017-11-02 09:55:42] <Tadpole> I reckon Dragon is reading over people's metaphorical shoulders
- [2017-11-02 09:55:47] <Cyrix> I love this in a really heartwrenching way
- [2017-11-02 09:55:48] <Hierophant> Not saying it isn't Dragon, but there's no evidence it is
- [2017-11-02 09:55:52] <Cyrix> that she often talks to the empty chat
- [2017-11-02 09:56:11] <Cyrix> its such a neat device in text to express that lonelyness
- [2017-11-02 09:56:21] <Hierophant> I'm not convinced HSP is necessarily a NFL trigger, either. Could be an AI tinker, if she's lying about her specialty, or just a very broad tinker, who's able to spec out to creating dumb chatbots
- [2017-11-02 09:56:42] <Hierophant> (I think I gave BS as an example earlier of this, but Kid Win and his lie detector is another example)
- [2017-11-02 09:56:47] <Tadpole> The chatbots aren't that dumb
- [2017-11-02 09:57:12] <Cyrix> stopy YBUTTing hierophant
- [2017-11-02 09:57:15] <Cyrix> its cleary dragon
- [2017-11-02 09:57:25] <Tadpole> They have set phrases they say after Kenzie logs on, yes, but they also seem reasonably able to interpret what she says, as well as interpreting articles they find online
- [2017-11-02 09:57:30] <Cyrix> or a subroutine of her or whatever
- [2017-11-02 09:57:46] <Hierophant> I have no idea what YBUTTing is, and there's literally no evidence it's Dragon other than Kenzie addressing someone whose username is Shower, as Shower.
- [2017-11-02 09:57:54] <Cyrix> Executioner404 has joined the conversation. Executioner404: /Kill Goatfish Goatfish: WIP_Capbot is disconnecting… Goatfish has left the conversation. Executioner404: /kill Shameful_Manatee Shameful_Manatee: WIP_Chrisbot is disconnecting… Shameful_Manatee has left the conversation.
- [2017-11-02 09:57:56] <Cyrix> wow
- [2017-11-02 09:58:02] <Cyrix> she renames herself to executioner
- [2017-11-02 09:58:08] <Tadpole> Hmm
- [2017-11-02 09:58:11] <Tadpole> I don't think so
- [2017-11-02 09:58:14] <Cyrix> so she clearly thinks she is killing something sentient?
- [2017-11-02 09:58:25] <Tadpole> I think Executioneer is another bot she made because she can't bear to type out all the commands
- [2017-11-02 09:58:27] <Cyrix> or she started a routine that is called executioner
- [2017-11-02 09:58:30] <Hierophant> She didn't. WB said she was using the Executioner to autokill all the bots so she can walk away
- [2017-11-02 09:58:31] <Cyrix> the connotation is the same
- [2017-11-02 09:58:46] <Cyrix> in regards to if those chatmembers were AI or 'simple bots'
- [2017-11-02 09:59:12] <Cyrix> Mangled_Wings: I’ve been called Queen Dark twice and King Dark once.
- [2017-11-02 09:59:14] <Cyrix> oh god
- [2017-11-02 09:59:15] <Cyrix> I just died
- [2017-11-02 09:59:17] <Hierophant> I really, really, REALLY doubt she'd murder like half a roomful of sentient beings because the admins told her she was making PHO lag
- [2017-11-02 09:59:20] <Cyrix> comic relief
- [2017-11-02 09:59:21] <Cyrix> thank you
- [2017-11-02 09:59:28] <Cyrix> that chapter was almost to grimdark for me
- [2017-11-02 09:59:32] <Hierophant> Also, I uh, still am not convinced she's Dragon, Cy.
- [2017-11-02 09:59:38] <Hierophant> And literally nothing grimdark happened in that chapter
- [2017-11-02 09:59:42] <Cyrix> yes
- [2017-11-02 09:59:43] <Cyrix> nothing
- [2017-11-02 09:59:44] <Hierophant> Other than HSP being sad about being rejected
- [2017-11-02 09:59:50] <Hierophant> And some chatbots getting disconnected
- [2017-11-02 09:59:56] <Cyrix> yes. nothing.
- [2017-11-02 10:00:00] <Hierophant> Surely it has some level of emotional impact, but it's a stretch to call it grimdark
- [2017-11-02 10:00:11] <Tadpole> I'm 60% on shower not being Dragon and 85% on those bots not being sentient
- [2017-11-02 10:00:19] <Cyrix> Mangled_Wings: I think I hate the internet to the very center of my being.
- [2017-11-02 10:00:21] <Cyrix> oh god
- [2017-11-02 10:00:26] <Cyrix> thank you mangled_wings
- [2017-11-02 10:00:35] <Cyrix> you might the edgiest tryhard of tryhardtown
- [2017-11-02 10:00:45] <Cyrix> but it might be genuine because you do not know better
- [2017-11-02 10:00:50] <Hierophant> I'm [undefined]% on Shower being Dragon because I don't think it's a good idea to form substantive, confident beliefs about things you have literally 0 evidence for or against
- [2017-11-02 10:00:54] <VereorNox> The queen dark thing went over my head
- [2017-11-02 10:01:00] <Cyrix> but either way you are exactly what Kenzie needs right now
- [2017-11-02 10:01:05] <Hierophant> VereorNox: It's the Worm version of the Navy Seal Copypasta
- [2017-11-02 10:01:13] <VereorNox> ohh
- [2017-11-02 10:01:17] <Hierophant> She goes on PHO and brags about being a great and powerful supervillain and people meme at her
- [2017-11-02 10:01:19] <Cyrix> Heart_Shaped_Pupil: If you think about it, with powers and all, the center of your being could include the vast monster in another dimension that’s all hooked up into you. Passenger stuff. The center of mass could be in the middle of an alien god monster the size of a mountain or moon. I imagine it has the energy of a small star stored in it.
- [2017-11-02 10:01:21] <Hierophant> it's fucking hilarious
- [2017-11-02 10:01:22] <Cyrix> okay shit.
- [2017-11-02 10:01:40] <Cyrix> Kenzie knows a lot of shit. And thats a view behind the facade
- [2017-11-02 10:01:47] <Cyrix> because holy crap thats not common knowledge
- [2017-11-02 10:01:59] <Cyrix> thats S class information right there
- [2017-11-02 10:02:00] <Hierophant> Yeah, it's why people were theorizing about her being Bonesaw - but the pieces don't fit, there.
- [2017-11-02 10:02:10] <Cyrix> bonesaw?
- [2017-11-02 10:02:13] <Cyrix> huh
- [2017-11-02 10:02:17] <Cyrix> I dont think so
- [2017-11-02 10:02:18] <Tadpole> Hierophant: Eh, you can make a Bayesian calculation even with very little evidence (as long as you have priors)
- [2017-11-02 10:02:20] <Cyrix> to young
- [2017-11-02 10:02:20] <Hierophant> me neither
- [2017-11-02 10:02:24] <Cyrix> was in the wards before
- [2017-11-02 10:02:27] <Hierophant> right
- [2017-11-02 10:02:31] <Cyrix> years before GM
- [2017-11-02 10:02:32] <Hierophant> But like, what Ward knows the truth about the shards
- [2017-11-02 10:02:34] <Cyrix> doesnt fit
- [2017-11-02 10:02:35] <Hierophant> Heartbroken?
- [2017-11-02 10:02:41] <Cyrix> no
- [2017-11-02 10:02:44] <Hierophant> But then they'd not have been in Baltimore
- [2017-11-02 10:02:45] <Cyrix> but a snoop in the net
- [2017-11-02 10:02:58] <Cyrix> and she said herself that in the end of GM her role was critical
- [2017-11-02 10:02:58] <Hierophant> Could be! She broke into Tattletale's net, mebbe, or helped mf5 uncover something about triggers
- [2017-11-02 10:03:03] <Cyrix> that she did important things
- [2017-11-02 10:03:25] <Cyrix> so either taylor used her at some point to do something important
- [2017-11-02 10:03:27] <Hierophant> She could've helped build the big cannon that offed Scion, if she was a Tinker
- [2017-11-02 10:03:31] <Cyrix> nah
- [2017-11-02 10:03:34] <Cyrix> that was string theory
- [2017-11-02 10:03:38] <Hierophant> Eh?
- [2017-11-02 10:03:42] <Hierophant> String Theory was that at that point
- [2017-11-02 10:03:50] <Hierophant> I'm talking about the one they shoved into Scion's main body after Foil opened the gate
- [2017-11-02 10:03:54] <Hierophant> Defiant was the one who pulled the lever
- [2017-11-02 10:03:56] <Cyrix> yeah
- [2017-11-02 10:04:02] <Cyrix> that was built by string theory
- [2017-11-02 10:04:08] <Hierophant> Did ST build that? I thought she died in the oil rig
- [2017-11-02 10:04:16] <Cyrix> dunno about that
- [2017-11-02 10:04:19] <Cyrix> but that was her gun
- [2017-11-02 10:04:24] <Cyrix> it was the G driver
- [2017-11-02 10:04:33] <Cyrix> they hit scion with it before - but only his body.
- [2017-11-02 10:04:45] <Cyrix> after sting brought the barriers down they shot him again
- [2017-11-02 10:04:52] <Cyrix> and his body acted as a portal to his real body
- [2017-11-02 10:05:05] <Cyrix> and since the G driver was an upscaled moon killer
- [2017-11-02 10:05:14] <Cyrix> it pretty much destroyed whatever earth/planet scion was on
- [2017-11-02 10:05:24] <Cyrix> anyways, not important
- [2017-11-02 10:05:29] <Cyrix> I need to finish reading
- [2017-11-02 10:05:31] <Hierophant> I was under the impression that the big gun that killed Scion was the one all the tinkers Taylor dumped into a room together was working on
- [2017-11-02 10:05:45] <Cyrix> nah
- [2017-11-02 10:05:46] <Cyrix> Mangled_Wings: This serves to illustrate the depth and energy of my hate for a setting where C might be more intimidating than I am.
- [2017-11-02 10:05:57] <Cyrix> and whats even better here is that mangled wings keeps up
- [2017-11-02 10:05:59] <Hierophant> Odd_Reptile isn't even that intimidating though
- [2017-11-02 10:06:05] <Cyrix> comprehends and makes a joke out of it
- [2017-11-02 10:06:12] <Cyrix> mangled wings is thinker imo
- [2017-11-02 10:06:16] <Cyrix> one that scales with information
- [2017-11-02 10:06:34] <Hierophant> How d'you figure that?
- [2017-11-02 10:06:44] <Cyrix> because she spends the entire day at the library
- [2017-11-02 10:06:50] <Cyrix> and wants to be big bad and scary?
- [2017-11-02 10:06:58] <Hierophant> ...huh?
- [2017-11-02 10:07:09] <Cyrix> and is kinda obsessed with becoming strong and scary and successful
- [2017-11-02 10:07:15] <Cyrix> and she is trying to build a powerbase
- [2017-11-02 10:07:25] <Cyrix> but clearly she isnt talking/talkative
- [2017-11-02 10:07:32] <Cyrix> well nvm
- [2017-11-02 10:07:35] <Hierophant> Agree, but you can be a power-hungry supervillain and also spend all day looking for information and also not be a Thinker - information is useful to ANYONE seeking to build a powerbase, whether or not they're thinkers
- [2017-11-02 10:07:36] <Cyrix> ima continue reading
- [2017-11-02 10:07:38] <Tadpole> If Wildbae ever gives Cyr a cameo appearance, he should have her make weird theories in PHO chat
- [2017-11-02 10:07:44] <Hierophant> hahaha
- [2017-11-02 10:08:00] <Cyrix> that turn out to be true 80% of the time :P
- [2017-11-02 10:08:25] <Hierophant> Did you make any Twig theories?
- [2017-11-02 10:08:29] <Cyrix> Mangled_Wings: I am always serious.
- [2017-11-02 10:08:32] <Cyrix> xD
- [2017-11-02 10:08:46] <Cyrix> I cant help but read everything she says in lungs voice
- [2017-11-02 10:08:50] <Cyrix> she sounds so much like him in my head
- [2017-11-02 10:09:08] <Hierophant> She sounds more like Shadow Stalker/DoD to me
- [2017-11-02 10:09:19] <Tadpole> Not Shadow Stalker
- [2017-11-02 10:09:22] <Cyrix> If you will work for me then I’ll damn well make good use of you. I’ll incentivize you to stay around.
- [2017-11-02 10:09:30] <Tadpole> I mean she might sound like SS but probably isn't SS
- [2017-11-02 10:09:40] <Cyrix> that sounds like lung recruiting bakuda
- [2017-11-02 10:09:42] <Cukr> Who is DoD?
- [2017-11-02 10:09:44] <Cyrix> only nicer and not so dumb
- [2017-11-02 10:09:49] <Tadpole> Damsel of Distress
- [2017-11-02 10:09:56] <Cukr> Ah.
- [2017-11-02 10:10:09] <Cyrix> I think mangled Wing would be a neat protag @ that discussion beforehand
- [2017-11-02 10:10:33] <Cyrix> Kenzie is a great tatteltale informationdumper/deveice to keep the characters updated on what we as readers of worm 1 know
- [2017-11-02 10:10:50] <Cyrix> huh
- [2017-11-02 10:10:50] <Cyrix> wow
- [2017-11-02 10:10:54] <Cyrix> done
- [2017-11-02 10:10:59] <Cyrix> yeah, that chapter was supercool
- [2017-11-02 10:11:04] <Cyrix> the best one so far for sure
- [2017-11-02 10:11:12] <Cyrix> I loved it! It was such a rollercoaster
- [2017-11-02 10:11:18] <Hierophant> Cyrix: So what's your theory about who's going to be the MC?
- [2017-11-02 10:11:24] <Cyrix> I dont have one
- [2017-11-02 10:11:33] <Cyrix> or rather I dont want to share
- [2017-11-02 10:11:38] <Hierophant> I'm calling an ensemble cast in the style of Twig, with M_W, Cap, HSP, odd-reptile etc. as the ensemble
- [2017-11-02 10:11:45] <Cyrix> you people laugh and mock me for the things I say right now
- [2017-11-02 10:11:52] <Cyrix> so I kinda see no reason to share anything
- [2017-11-02 10:11:55] <Cyrix> >P
- [2017-11-02 10:12:02] <Hierophant> My theory about viewpoint character is... I think I'd say it's a toss up between M_W and HSP.
- [2017-11-02 10:12:16] <Hierophant> Could be recency bias though, I was fairly sure Cap would be viewpoint char at one ponit
- [2017-11-02 10:12:23] <Cyrix> those two are to me the most insteresting so far, yeah
- [2017-11-02 10:12:35] <Hierophant> I really hope one of those two are the MCs
- [2017-11-02 10:12:48] <Hierophant> They're the best characters and I really feel sorry for HSP and hope she gets the companionship she wants
- [2017-11-02 10:12:52] <Hierophant> I also really want to see M_W go full ham
- [2017-11-02 10:12:56] <Cyrix> I personally hope for a girl for stupid identification reasons and the meta reason that I think bow writes better females then males
- [2017-11-02 10:12:59] <Cyrix> but alas
- [2017-11-02 10:13:11] <Cyrix> And shes from balitmore
- [2017-11-02 10:13:56] <Cyrix> shards trigger/search for parahumans in certain areas first - we know that from parahumans 1 with grue/aisha
- [2017-11-02 10:14:20] <Cyrix> after that they usually use genetics, but not always
- [2017-11-02 10:14:28] <Cyrix> as can be seen with taylors bud
- [2017-11-02 10:14:47] <Cyrix> so my theory is that Kenzie is a Richter Shard/Bud
- [2017-11-02 10:15:17] <Cyrix> and she triggered very young and it was a very bad trigger - so her power appears to be relativly wide and flexible
- [2017-11-02 10:15:26] <Cyrix> and she also has so many issues and needs so many hugs
- [2017-11-02 10:17:01] <Hierophant> She has one major issue, I think, which is that she's very isolated.
- [2017-11-02 10:17:11] <Hierophant> If we theorize that her power involves making those chatbots, then that's a masterish power, which fits with the isolation
- [2017-11-02 10:17:20] <Hierophant> I definitely think the her cheerfulness is probably a coping mechanism of some sort
- [2017-11-02 10:17:36] <Hierophant> Whether with loneliness or with the fallout of GM is a different story
- [2017-11-02 10:17:55] <m1el> making chatbots is not a master power?..
- [2017-11-02 10:18:03] <Cyrix> agreed on the later two points - disagree on your observation that she has just one major issue - I think she has multiple and that isolation is rather the product of the issues at end
- [2017-11-02 10:18:20] <Cyrix> @m1el making dragon wasnt one either? technically
- [2017-11-02 10:18:29] <Hierophant> Creating minions is a strong masterish power.
- [2017-11-02 10:18:32] <Tadpole> 3>the meta reason that I think bow writes better females then males
- [2017-11-02 10:18:35] <Hierophant> Or a master application of a tinker power
- [2017-11-02 10:18:38] <Cyrix> but I think its stupid to try to devide powers along those classification lines to strongly
- [2017-11-02 10:18:39] <Tadpole> He does, interestingly enough.
- [2017-11-02 10:18:50] <Hierophant> Cyrix: What d'you think are her other issues?
- [2017-11-02 10:18:52] <Cyrix> I just think so - I dunno if he does
- [2017-11-02 10:18:56] <Tadpole> But if the banner was any indication, it's probably going to be a girl
- [2017-11-02 10:19:00] <Cyrix> @Hierophant that her trigger crippled her badly
- [2017-11-02 10:19:06] <Hierophant> Oh, you mean like a physical cripple?
- [2017-11-02 10:19:10] <Hierophant> Has to go around in a wheelchair and stuff?
- [2017-11-02 10:19:14] <Hierophant> Interesting idea, I think it might well fit.
- [2017-11-02 10:19:15] <Cyrix> nah
- [2017-11-02 10:19:22] <Hierophant> Mental cripple, then?
- [2017-11-02 10:19:25] <Cyrix> just that her power removed senses from her that are needed for nomal interaction
- [2017-11-02 10:19:27] <Cyrix> kinda like bitch
- [2017-11-02 10:19:28] <Hierophant> Huh.
- [2017-11-02 10:19:29] <m1el> hm. you may have a point, Hiero. but I wouldn't classify most sorts of programming as master power.
- [2017-11-02 10:19:54] <Hierophant> I feel like if that was the case she'd be less eager to meet up, not more, but it could well have stripped away her innate sense of "difference" between humans and machines
- [2017-11-02 10:20:40] <Hierophant> Normal human beings would recoil at the idea of talking to bots like they're "actual people" because bots are seen as "not real people" who you do not socially interact with. This "sense" stems from an innate... uh... intuition? that lines of code are somehow different and distinct from human types of intelligence
- [2017-11-02 10:20:50] <Hierophant> (This is why Saint got so pissed at Defiant falling in love with Dragon)
- [2017-11-02 10:21:09] <Hierophant> I think that it may well be the case that HSP does not have this "intuition", whether due to trigger, shard or natural born that way
- [2017-11-02 10:21:15] <Tadpole> Nah that's because Saint is an ass
- [2017-11-02 10:21:18] <Hierophant> Also I use a lot of quotation marks, perhaps unecessarily
- [2017-11-02 10:21:23] <Hierophant> Yeah, but I don't think he was a lying ass
- [2017-11-02 10:21:31] <m1el> /demerit Saint
- [2017-11-02 10:21:34] <Hierophant> I mean that I think Saint genuinely believes there's something wrong with having a relationship with a robot
- [2017-11-02 10:21:54] <Hierophant> And a lot of humans share this intuition, it's not just Saint. Consider how people with waifus or sexbots are seen as lonely weebs and mocked for it, for instance.
- [2017-11-02 10:22:03] <Hierophant> HSP, I think, perhaps does not have this intuition
- [2017-11-02 10:24:03] <Hierophant> Alright, I'm heading out now, thanks for the convo everyone
- [2017-11-02 10:24:04] ⇐ Hierophant quit (Aliphant@net-8fm.sou.95.209.IP): Quit: Bye-bye! Have a nice day!
- [2017-11-02 10:51:49] → Megafire joined (Megafire@net-56lide.dynamic.ziggo.nl)
