Brave little toasters OOC

20:22:08: <Sunrise> Okay
20:22:13: <Chor> What's the four legendary toasters? :3
20:22:13: <Sunrise> We have 4 toasters, yeah?
20:22:30: Scygnus hasn't even read the rules, but will at least hang out in here and watch ;p
20:22:37: <wiremobile> We're a toaster short
20:22:41: <Chor> silly Scygnus
20:22:44: <Sunrise> You play as a toaster in Fallout Swede-Equestria
20:22:45: <Chor> there are no rules
20:23:04: <Chor> Nothing is forbidden, everything is allowed.
20:23:08: <Sunrise> Oh, no there are. Scroll to the bottom of this: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1mS6QybEEEGxymc5mNuQx8gileixjhTrDcNU5zZimeYQ/edit
20:23:09: <wiremobile> Shotgun totin' toastercorn
20:23:20: <Sunrise> Disregard all of the fucking blurb etc etc
20:23:28: <Sunrise> Just the feats and the minor rule change
20:23:51: <Sunrise> You won't level up, just mod yourself if needs be
20:25:35: <Sunrise> https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0AhcsCSxUH3GBdHVUWWZfUFo5Q2JhSFUzOEp3RGQ4MHc#gid=0
20:25:37: <Sunrise> Character sheet
20:26:09: Chor is totally doing a partly deranged utility Mr. Hoofy
20:26:54: <Chor> also, I only see 3 archetipes there
20:27:09: <wiremobile> Pega, uni, dirt
20:27:19: <Chor> utility, assistant, security
20:27:25: <wiremobile> It dances
20:28:07: <Sunrise> Hmm
20:28:14: <Sunrise> Infact maybe I am going OTT
20:28:23: <Sunrise> Fuck it, just have a short and sweet character sheet
20:28:27: <Scygnus> I haven't even read the original rules completely, not even sure if i've looked at the ones you're specificallytalking about :p
20:28:39: <Sunrise> Yeah okay, definatly fuck it then
20:29:00: Chor could use a simpler rule system, like he's going to explain
20:29:58: <Scygnus> I can't play today anyway, if that's what you were planning. I have my usual tuesday game in about thirty minutes, if enough players show up.
20:30:06: <Chor> you put just bonuses in the stats, like 2x +2, 2x +1, 2x +0, 1x -1
20:30:14: <Sunrise> We won't bother with such things as RULES. Just get a wrttn document with just. Name, Make, Colour and a damage table ranging from Fine, Battered, Bust, Broken, Shattered.
20:30:18: <Sunrise> Ahhh
20:30:28: <Sunrise> Chor and Wirepony, you guys available?
20:30:29: <Chor> and to resolve anything that involves that statistic, you roll 2d6 and add that modifier
20:30:32: <Chor> yup
20:30:41: <Sunrise> That sounds better than what I suggested, Chor.
20:30:58: <wiremobile> Not available now
20:30:59: <Chor> on a 10+ you get what you want, on a 7-9 you only get a partial result, a ugly bargain, or an ugly choice to make
20:31:05: <wiremobile> Stuck on phone
20:31:08: <Sunrise> But tbh, there's notgoing to be any stats
20:31:10: <Chor> aw
20:31:16: <Sunrise> Just items
20:31:17: <Chor> naw, why not
20:31:19: <Sunrise> Like an adventure game
20:31:39: <Chor> pffft xD aw hell, then more items give more bonuses to the roll
20:31:49: <Sunrise> HMMM
20:31:54: <Chor> like, the perfect tool for the job is a +2 and a good one is a +1
20:31:59: <Chor> and using nothing at all is a -1
20:32:37: <Chor> I can explain better while ongoing on the details
20:32:41: <Sunrise> So what would the stats actually be? Just four traits that the toasters have?
20:32:57: <wiremobile> I'd say SPECIAL
20:33:02: <Chor> you're making it just tools right? so tools woud be everything that is
20:33:06: <wiremobile> Everyone is familiar with it
20:33:22: <wiremobile> And it's a good base to build off
20:33:25: <Sunrise> Okay
20:33:43: <Chor> still, robots are not ponies, in theory
20:34:08: <Chor> and we could use a very simplified, pick-up-and-play system
20:34:22: <wiremobile> SPECIAL applies to scum like zebras and griffins
20:34:23: <Sunrise> Could do
20:34:32: <Sunrise> Truth
20:34:37: <wiremobile> No reason it can't work for the glorious robot race
20:35:04: <Chor> so, basically, you have a list of the tools and things you have, and each thing you do depends on the tolls you use and how you use them
20:35:13: <Sunrise> Okay, sounds good
20:35:27: <wiremobile> Yes
20:35:27: <Chor> the GM decides how appropriate the action is to the task, and gives relevant bonus
20:35:40: <Sunrise> So how would a character sheet look?
20:35:45: <Chor> TOOLS
20:35:55: <wiremobile> Special, skills, TOOLS
20:36:16: <Chor> you know, just the equipment, and maaybe some training to give some other bonus
20:36:31: <Sunrise> And so if i wanted to roll to jump out of the way of tumbling rock whatwould that be? Roll the stat?
20:36:35: <Sunrise> AGI?
20:36:48: <Chor> well, that'd depend on the locomotion you possess
20:36:49: <wiremobile> Yah agi plus any relevant tool
20:37:11: <wiremobile> Rocket booster, vaulting pole, spiked treads
20:37:19: <Chor> good locomotion to get out of the way would get you a bonus, if you're hovering and slow you get a malus
20:37:29: <Chor> or stuff like that, really
20:37:32: <Sunrise> So its a number out of 10 and what die do you roll?
20:37:54: <wiremobile> D10 seems appropriate
20:38:06: <Chor> 2d6+bonus, but really, that bonus can't go much farther than -1 or +3
20:38:21: Chor also doesn't understand anymore who Sunrise is talking to
20:38:29: <Sunrise> Both of you :p
20:38:34: <wiremobile> Heh
20:38:36: <Chor> LOL, way to multitask
20:38:56: <wiremobile> Chor is making more sense though
20:39:19: <Chor> but basically, it'd be on a case-to-case basis, considering both your programming and your tools
20:39:27: <Sunrise> So 2d6+bonus with Specials that go up to 10 ... How do we determine whats a success?
20:39:38: <wiremobile> Programming = skills
20:39:40: <Chor> it gets good since eventually the bonuses become codified and set in stone, and people know what to expect
20:40:08: <wiremobile> Make the number from stat/skill plus bonus, roll less than it
20:40:12: <Chor> nuuuu I was thinking no specials, just equipment and training (as programming)
20:41:04: <wiremobile> Everybot is going to have special... Hmm
20:41:06: <Chor> and you use them in conjucion for stuff, with little strictness means the player can get inventive
20:41:49: <Chor> like using some welding programming to manipulate a pencil instead and draw precise lines, dunno xD
20:41:56: <wiremobile> Special limited to 3 max, 15 assignable points, requires appropriate equipment to use
20:42:18: <wiremobile> My 3 in perception does me no good without eyeballs
20:42:54: Chor is against SPECIAL in this case btw, there's already too much stuff on the plate if we want to use inventory and pseudo skills
20:43:04: <wiremobile> But my interpolation processor in my spell matrix helps me get more out of even basic eyeballs
20:43:18: wiremobile is for special, is not militant
20:44:01: <Sunrise> So 2d6+bonus. That bonus can come from both tools stats/training. You can roll to do anything basically, and the training can be let's say four(?) special features your toaster has. Each time you roll the dice you will be rolling to beat a hidden number I have selected for the challenge
20:44:05: <Sunrise> Ammirite?
20:44:35: <wiremobile> Sounds doable
20:45:02: <Chor> nope, that's the cool thing, there's no DC, just the static one of 10+ for a good result and 7-9 for a meh result, however the bonus gets decided from how well the player approaches the problem
20:45:15: <Scygnus> I'm so confused. Once you hammer it out, make me a quickstart guide, 'kay?
20:45:35: <wiremobile> Also doable, but needs a shit hot dm
20:46:03: <Sunrise> Ah right I see, yeah thats even easier
20:46:05: <Chor> naw, it's easy really on the spur of the moment, plus keep in mind previous decisions carry oveer
20:46:28: <Chor> so if you did something already you can use the same bonus for the same action, like you'd have your combat bonuses memorized
20:46:53: <Sunrise> wat
20:47:16: <Chor> like, you know, slicing open a raider or something with your blade
20:48:01: <Sunrise> Oh so you built up traits from shit you've already done...? This has lost me now
20:48:33: <Chor> mmmm, okay, let's do this instead
20:48:42: <Sunrise> Woah woah
20:48:53: <Sunrise> What's wrong with what we have already? It's cool and straight forward as fuck
20:49:31: <Sunrise> So 2d6+bonus. That bonus can come from both tools stats/training. You can roll to do anything basically, and the training can be let's say four(?) special features your toaster has. 10+ for a good result and 7-9 for a meh result. Traits and tools can improve this
20:49:35: <Sunrise> Is what I've got so far
20:49:39: <Chor> mmm, nah, too much decisions on the GM, I guess we can simplify that part
20:49:50: <Sunrise> wat
20:49:54: <Sunrise> thats completely fine
20:50:36: <Sunrise> "I'm going to roll to lockpick this door open" >roll a 4 "You jam the lock" >roll a 10 "The lock springs open"
20:50:42: <Sunrise> Or
20:50:52: <Chor> yeah that part is completely fine
20:51:12: <Sunrise> "I'm going to dive out of the way from the collapsing debris" >roll a 4 "Oh no yo don't" >roll a 10 "You're already out of the room by the time it lands"
20:51:22: <Sunrise> Huh, what's this stuff you want to add then?
20:51:26: <Sunrise> I can run a game with just that
20:51:37: <Sunrise> Character sheet would just have 4 [Traits] on it
20:51:41: <wiremobile> Modified by my vibratory lockpick
20:51:57: <Chor> I'd want to use SPECIALS as actual base for bonus decisions afterall, and leave tools/traits as modifiers depending on the action
20:51:59: <wiremobile> Or rocket booster... yes
20:52:45: <Chor> let's say, tools give a +1 if they're the right thing for the job, and lack of specific training gives -1? or -2?
20:52:46: <Sunrise> Ewwwwww using SPECIAL
20:52:58: <wiremobile> Lol
20:53:00: <Chor> I know xD but that'd save the GM much hassle
20:53:13: <Sunrise> It makes /more/ hassle!
20:53:23: <Sunrise> that's more numbers to keep track of
20:53:34: <Chor> nah, you shoot, you use PER+tools, end of story
20:53:45: <wiremobile> Agi plus tools
20:53:48: <Chor> instead of having the GM feedback everything
20:53:48: <Sunrise> But Specials go up to 10
20:54:01: <Chor> nah, we collapse them into something from -2 to +2
20:54:02: <Sunrise> How do specials work into a +1/+2 system
20:54:05: <Sunrise> oh
20:54:06: <wiremobile> Or to 3, like I said
20:54:09: <Sunrise> oooh
20:54:27: <Chor> +3 is really, really good stuff, you don't want that as starting point
20:54:42: <wiremobile> Hmmm
20:54:48: <Sunrise> Okay right, I'm behind this now
20:54:50: <Chor> since there's tools aleady that can give you a boost
20:54:58: <wiremobile> Yes. -2 to + 2 is good
20:55:10: <Chor> ALRIGHT! So it's set now I guess
20:55:21: <wiremobile> Start all special at zero, unlimited fiddling?
20:55:28: <Chor> lack of specific training gives -2 then?
20:55:37: <Chor> hmmm, I'd say something like +5 total
20:55:58: <Chor> it's a little badass though ;p
20:56:15: <wiremobile> Id argue + 2 or 3 to reduce badassery
20:56:20: <Chor> +3 is good
20:56:52: <wiremobile> This is about tools, not... Minmaxing
20:56:59: <wiremobile> 3 is happy
20:57:13: <Sunrise> So 2d6+bonus. That bonus can come from both tools stats/training. You can roll to do anything basically, and the training can be let's say four(?) special features your toaster has. 10+ for a good result and 7-9 for a meh result. SPECIAL can range from -2 to +2. You start off with 0 in everything and have 4 Special points to spend. You can reduce special stats to minuses to get more bonuses.
20:57:15: <Sunrise> That sound good?
20:57:55: <wiremobile> Four special features?
20:58:59: <Sunrise> o 2d6+bonus. That bonus can come from both tools stats/training. You can roll to interact in the game work or handle challenges. 10+ for a good result and 7-9 for a meh result. SPECIAL can range from -2 to +2. You start off with 0 in everything and have 4 Special points to spend. You can reduce special stats to minuses to get more bonuses.
20:59:02: <Sunrise> whoops :3
20:59:21: <Chor> yeah, oh lawd, a crazy idea right there, we could use a common pool of SPECIAL points, HP, trainings, and items, all on a 1:1 basis
20:59:26: <Chor> right here*
20:59:41: <Sunrise> THIS IS GETTING VERY SILLY
20:59:42: <Chor> so you've got like 12 points to spend, go nuts xD
20:59:48: <wiremobile> That sounds like madness
20:59:57: <Chor> yeah, it is, I said it was crazy
21:00:01: <Chor> so NEVERMIND
21:00:05: <wiremobile> K
21:00:20: wiremobile nibbles on tinfoil
21:00:22: <Sunrise> Probably won't use training
21:00:33: <Sunrise> Just tools
21:01:10: <Chor> aw, are you sure? sounded cool enough to allow people their own niche
21:01:22: <wiremobile> Coprocessors and additional boards hideously rare
21:01:48: <Sunrise> You wanted the SPECIAL stats, man :p That's what they'd replace
21:02:02: <wiremobile> But good for nigh-permanent upgrades, assuming you can get them installed
21:02:02: <Chor> ah well, let's give it a try this way
21:02:15: <Sunrise> Right
21:02:38: <wiremobile> The vast majority of character abilities is going to be in tools and equipment
21:02:50: <wiremobile> I likey
21:04:33: <Sunrise> SO character sheet will look something like this: http://wrttn.in/7b152e
21:04:36: <Chor> Let's go then? I have a S +0 | P +2 | E +0 | C -1 | I +2 | A +1 | L +0 utility bot with all the cool stuff: 1 Cutter, 1 Welder, 1 Small Gripper, 1 Screw Driver, Impulse Drive (Slow)
21:04:54: <Sunrise> Okay sounds good
21:05:46: <Chor> also, I'd say STR lets you carry more/less stuff, say, locomotion+STR number of items/tools
21:06:25: <wiremobile> Oh god
21:06:33: <wiremobile> We're fusion buma
21:06:35: <Chor> legs allow you like 10, impulse drive only 7
21:07:00: <Sunrise> Eh, they're only gonna be tools and shit man, you won't be lugging car engines around
21:07:07: <Chor> mmm, we can do less probably, 9/6?
21:07:13: <Sunrise> What're you going to make, Wiremobile? :3
21:07:16: <Chor> but alright ;p
21:07:30: <wiremobile> Impulse drive (fast) does not increase that, just increased speed
21:07:41: <Chor> yeah
21:08:15: <wiremobile> I can't do it in my brain and I have no spreadsheet or gdocs output on phone
21:08:30: <Chor> also, let's say core has 4 HP, most weapons do 1 harm?
21:08:52: <wiremobile> Waaaay low
21:09:02: <Chor> if they're threatening at all of course
21:09:13: <Sunrise> Eh
21:09:16: <Sunrise> Again
21:09:33: <Sunrise> I'll probably just handle that
21:09:35: <Sunrise> Later
21:09:37: <Sunrise> You'll see
21:09:39: <Chor> alright man
21:09:51: <Sunrise> There's no need for combat stats and armour
21:10:02: <wiremobile> D8
21:10:22: <Sunrise> Yeah, whatcha' gonna do then Wiremobile? :o
21:10:41: <wiremobile> Tell me more because my build notes just got obsoleted
21:10:48: <Chor> there's the assistant which has Voice Augmentation, 1 Scriber, 1 Audio Recorder, 4 Legs, 1 Small Storage Compartment
21:10:59: <Chor> and the security robot with Armoured Chassis, 1 Magic Energy Pistol, 1 Night Vision, 1 Flash Light, 2 Legs
21:11:03: <Chor> so choose one :3
21:12:23: <Chor> and make SPECIAL for it
21:12:30: <Chor> make it SPECIAL*
21:14:26: <wiremobile> S-1 / p 1 / e -1 / c 2 / I 2 / a -2 / l 2
21:14:42: <wiremobile> Security robot
21:14:54: <Chor> you dashing thing you :3
21:15:15: <Chor> would we want a third player? that'd be easy enough to bring up to speed ^^
21:15:23: <Sunrise> Yup, that'd be cool
21:15:31: <Sunrise> Shit just went down in irc
21:15:35: <Sunrise> gonna give it a couple of minutes
21:15:42: <wiremobile> I'm too sexy for impulse drive
21:15:46: <Sunrise> lol
21:16:25: <Sunrise> Oh my, ilupony!
21:16:28: Ilushia shall totally sit in here and watch. >.>
21:16:33: <Chor> woo! *hugs an ilupone*
21:16:35: <Sunrise> Damn.
21:16:47: Ilushia lacks brainpower or time to actually play the game, unless you're like super desperate for players and only planning a one-off session or something.
21:16:52: <Sunrise> We have two watchers but no third player D:
21:16:55: <wiremobile> Statement: the soft has been maximised
21:17:15: <Sunrise> Oh lol, I see where you're going Wiremobile
21:17:27: <Sunrise> Oh my
21:17:39: <wiremobile> Hmm, need to name my toaster
21:17:58: <Sunrise> There's no use kidding ourselves, they're not toaster anymore.
21:18:13: <wiremobile> 8c
21:18:14: <Chor> Mine's Mr Hoofy #2342, self-named Patchy
21:18:38: <Ilushia> XD
21:18:44: <Xavi> so there are Toasters here?
21:18:47: <Ilushia> So what are you planning to do with this exactly?
21:18:54: <Chor> yuuup, wanna hear the rules?
21:18:58: <Chor> Drop it Sunrise
21:19:08: <Nomad> can i wear a cape
21:19:10: <wiremobile> Security Drone #1742(e), Designate Mr. Scowly reporting
21:19:37: <Ilushia> Sure
21:19:40: <Sunrise> Dice = 2d6+bonus. That bonus can come from both tools stats/training. You can roll to interact in the game work or handle challenges. 10+ for a good result and 7-9 for a meh result. SPECIAL can range from -2 to +2. You start off with 0 in everything and have 4 Special points to spend. You can reduce special stats to minuses to get more bonuses.
21:19:50: <Sunrise> Ultra-simplified
21:20:06: <Ilushia> XD
21:20:20: <Nomad> now has a notepad
21:20:26: <Chor> Utility has 1 Cutter, 1 Welder, 1 Small Gripper, 1 Screw Driver, Impulse Drive (Slow)
21:20:30: <Chor> Assistant has Voice Augmentation, 1 Scriber, 1 Audio Recorder, 4 Legs, 1 Small Storage Compartment
21:20:35: <Chor> Security has Armoured Chassis, 1 Magic Energy Pistol, 1 Night Vision, 1 Flash Light, 2 Legs
21:20:48: <Chor> tools basically give you +1 to rolls when used properly
21:21:18: <Chor> and that's it
21:21:38: <wiremobile> We need an assistant
21:21:52: Ilushia could play an assistant.
21:21:55: Ilushia ponders this.
21:22:03: <Chor> I am an assistant already :3
21:22:07: <Ilushia> Ah
21:22:07: <wiremobile> We currently have no way to interact with meat beings using audio
21:22:18: <Sunrise> Wat
21:22:20: Chor is an assistant, wire is a security
21:22:24: <Nomad> utility :o
21:22:24: <Sunrise> You're Utility Chor
21:22:28: <wiremobile> Doh
21:22:30: <Sunrise> You silly filly
21:22:32: <Chor> oh fuck, that's true
21:22:38: <Sunrise> ITS SO SIMPLIFIED
21:22:40: <Nomad> chor is a noob
21:22:42: <Sunrise> EVEN WE DONT KNOW WHATS GOING ON
21:22:43: <Chor> so Ilu, you can totally be the assistant xD
21:22:51: <Chor> 2d6+2 DERP
21:22:52: <Bones> Chor, DERP: 12 [2d6=4,6]
21:22:54: Ilushia shall be the assistant then. Maybe slow. XD
21:23:03: <Chor> yup, totally derp with full success
21:23:24: <Nomad> 6_9
21:23:51: <Chor> remember Sunrise, 7-9 means the player may have to choose on occasion whether to continue with his action and suffer ill side consequences, or forfeit his intent
21:24:13: <Chor> or, just meh stuff happens, either of the two ;p
21:24:13: <Sunrise> KAY
21:24:14: <Ilushia> Repair Unit #22758 - Squeaky to her friends.
21:24:22: <Ilushia> Oh wait

21:29:41: <Mr_Scowly> Sunrise is afk, can rule dump
21:29:54: <Scygnus> What's our total at the moment? Also, looks like I'll be playing the usual tuesday game, so excuse me if I end up half-here if you're actually planning on running today.
21:30:14: <SnoW> so wait, what is this?
21:30:16: <Mr_Scowly> Special is -2 to + 2, 4 bonus points, start at zero

21:36:56: <Scygnus> I'm here 'till at least ten or so, but will be playing another game at the same time.
21:37:01: <Mr_Scowly> Welcome fellow unit

21:40:13: <Sunrise> okay, when you guys are ready just join #toastersic
21:40:15: Chor Patchy
21:40:28: Chor derps once again
21:41:08: <Patchy> all are free to spectate ^^ just don't talk in there unless you can toast toast toastilliciously
21:41:21: <Sunrise> Ayyup
21:41:40: <ToasterRepairpony[Asleep]> can I play the role of a toaster repairpony who is also perpetually asleep
21:41:48: <Patchy> that's good enough
21:41:49: <Xavi> hey guys, it's breakfast time here, mind giving me some toast?
21:41:55: <Sunrise> You can, but I think your dialogue might be limited
21:42:10: <ToasterRepairpony[Asleep]> I exist only for Mr_Scowly's amusement
21:42:23: Patchy offers Xavi some toast: burned, pulverized, and dipped in machine oil, just like he likes it best!
21:42:40: <Mr_Scowly> Statement: what is love? Baby don't hurt me.
21:42:42: Xavi doesn't want the oil though...
21:42:48: <squeaky> A TOASTER IS JUST A DEATHRAY WITH A SMALLER ENERGY SOURCE!
21:42:59: Scygnus now has this hilarious image of the party dragging a fallen comrade to the SPP because they heard there was an amazing Toaster Repairpony up there. Mostly hilarious because of how hard Pip would facehoof.
21:43:00: <Sunrise> Hahahah
21:43:04: <Mr_Scowly> Ilu, chor, need descriptor and branding
21:43:06: <Patchy> Beep boop son, beep boop.
21:43:47: <Sunrise> Scygnus you rolling up a brobot now?
21:43:54: <Patchy> Mr. Hoofy #2342 , of Iron Will Manufacturing, Mr Hoofy #2342, reporting for duty!

21:44:39: <Patchy> pardon my faulty introduction programming, sir!
21:47:33: <Sunrise> Squeaky ~ Squeeeeaky
21:50:20: <Patchy> also, how does non-assistant communicate among themselves? Am I a R2D2?
21:50:31: <Sunrise> ...
21:50:34: <Sunrise> Get out of my head, man
21:50:39: <Sunrise> I was just typing that out
21:50:39: <Patchy> Beep boop aslkfjhbalakjsbfalkjga
21:50:43: <Sunrise> YEAH SO ANYWAY
21:51:05: <Sunrise> Basically, you guys can all communicate to each other in binery, spell do-dahs or whatever. To actually project a voice into the outside world you need one.
21:51:14: <Mr_Scowly> Ilu pone is only one that can talk to meat sacks without a terminal or pipbuck
21:51:19: <Sunrise> Correct
21:51:20: <Patchy> eeyup
21:52:32: <squeaky> And soon... Very soon... All those filthy, stinking meat-sacks shall obey my commands... My wishes... My whims! MWAHAHAHA!
21:52:52: <Sunrise> Hahaha
21:52:58: <Patchy> yup, your common ragtag team of deranged robots right here
21:53:07: <Sunrise> Full-Fallout robots
21:53:28: <Sunrise> Squeaky join #toastersic
21:53:31: <Patchy> aayup
21:53:33: <squeaky> Sunrise, you've played FoNV right?
21:53:36: <Sunrise> Yup
21:53:42: <squeaky> K. XD
21:53:47: <Sunrise> Oooooh, but not the Old World Blues
21:53:50: <squeaky> I know icekatze hasn't, is the thing.
21:53:53: <Sunrise> Which you're obv deferencing
21:53:55: <squeaky> Hahaha!
21:54:09: <Mr_Scowly> Nuclear toaster is best toaster
21:54:15: <Sunrise> Infact, scratch that. I've not playing ANY of the expansions for New Vegas, oddly
21:54:31: <squeaky> XD
21:54:35: <Sunrise> despite completing the game like 4 times
21:54:39: Sunrise is a goddamn fruit
21:54:45: <Patchy> can you even look diappointed? xD
21:54:48: <squeaky> XD
21:55:14: <Mr_Scowly> Disappointed lemon is disappointed
21:55:15: <Mr_Growly> It's that unecessary zero at the beginning of the code stream.
21:55:25: <Patchy> oh, I see
21:55:42: <Patchy> also, I'm most certainly going mad trying to differentiate between you two
21:55:49: <Mr_Growly> XD
21:55:57: Mr_Growly thought that might happen.
21:56:05: <Sunrise> 12http://i.minus.com/ikkPEUqqepDWs.png
21:56:10: <Patchy> WOOOOOOOOO
21:56:11: <Mr_Scowly> I was there first, so
21:56:31: <Mr_Growly> Just imagine he's Scooby and I'm Scrappy.
21:56:36: <Patchy> lol
21:56:46: <Scowly_Unit> Ruh roh!
21:56:50: <SnoW> even if I was down for playing (I just have another channel to lurk now) I'm leaving to pick up my brother from the airport in an hour
21:57:01: <Scowly_Unit> Damn
21:57:17: <Patchy> cya Snow, remember to equip your wheels before leaving!
21:57:31: <SnoW> im not leaving for an hour :D
22:00:59: <squeaky> <3 that image.
22:02:11: <Patchy> I know right!?
22:02:26: <Patchy> It's insanely appropriate
22:08:29: Patchy compiles together for ease of use http://mibpaste.com/7Bzrab
22:09:08: <Scowly_Unit> Check the gdoc 8p
22:09:18: <Patchy> haha xD
22:10:04: <Patchy> how cool ^^ for the people who weren't there: http://mibpaste.com/7Bzrab
22:10:08: <Patchy> LOL sorry

22:11:03: Scowly_Unit works his manipulators to the bare metal, and this is the thanks he gets
22:11:41: Patchy pat-pats (clunk-clunks) the poor Scowly_Unit
22:12:38: <squeaky> XD
22:12:51: squeaky is presumably some kind of pony-shaped research assistant 'bot.
22:13:37: <Sunrise> And go!
22:14:00: <Scowly_Unit> I just imagine your fim fiction avatar in chrome
22:14:06: <Sunrise> And correct, Squeaky
22:14:21: <squeaky> Yeah, pretty much. XD
22:14:28: <Sunrise> 4http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qwe1nbYO3og
22:19:35: <Mr_Growly> I have no mental imageof what we're supposed to look like here ;p
22:20:20: <Scowly_Unit> We're bipedal type security drones, squeaky is a pony bot, patchy is a sprite
22:20:22: <Patchy> http://images3.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20090107121018/fallout/images/archive/8/8c/20110125223307!Mister_Handy.png kinda
22:21:20: <Sunrise> Pretty much
22:21:33: <Mr_Growly> Ah. Got it.
22:23:44: <Patchy> unlike the picture, though, I do not spew blood from my anus
22:24:19: <Patchy> a hovering talisman gives me concessions on Newton's 2nd law
22:26:45: <Sunrise> Hahaha
22:30:17: <Mr_Growly> Is somebody logging this? I want a copy for posterity later :p
22:30:25: <Sunrise> Yup
22:30:37: <Scowly_Unit> Yay!
22:32:28: <Patchy> Scowly_Unit: apostrophes are required in order to improve processor efficiency in detecting text.
22:32:39: <Patchy> "Like this!"
22:33:27: <Patchy> detecting dialogue*
22:33:35: Scowly_Unit learns something new, implements immediately
22:33:55: <Patchy> also, I can't really form an image of those two-legged securities, are they like, anthros? xD
22:34:12: Mr_Growly wasn't using quotes because he doesn't have a voicebox.
22:34:33: <Patchy> that's the same, you're still communicating, AKA talking, only difference is language
22:34:47: <Patchy> even if someone speaks Greek to you you still put it between apostrophes ;p
22:34:48: <Mr_Growly> Yah yeah.
22:35:08: <Scowly_Unit> I wasn't because ignorant
22:35:16: <Mr_Growly> I could be really annoying and find that thing that translated text to binary :p
22:35:18: <Sunrise> Eh, details
22:35:35: <Sunrise> It may just be easier to actually change what the dialogue is to living
22:35:38: squeaky returns
22:35:40: <Sunrise> maybe uses + keys
22:35:44: <Sunrise> like +Hello flesh unit+
22:36:16: <Patchy> hah, that's an idea, we could use the alternate <robot tags>
22:36:33: <Scowly_Unit> Yeah... Pony legible dialog gets ", robot gets +
22:36:39: <Patchy> >Hello fleshy unit. You may not understand this.<
22:36:58: <Scowly_Unit> + please, it's a pain to < on phone
22:37:04: <Patchy> alrighty
22:37:57: <Scowly_Unit> Squeaky?
22:39:36: <squeaky> Oops
22:39:45: <squeaky> Replace "s with +s there. >..
22:39:51: squeaky is sorry she's slow. XD
22:39:56: <Scowly_Unit> 8)
22:40:01: <Patchy> fixing the door, Welders, screw drivers, grippers, the whole shebang
22:40:04: <Sunrise> No problem
22:40:06: <Sunrise> okay!
22:40:10: <Patchy> what stat?
22:40:17: <Sunrise> Int
22:40:19: <Sunrise> plus tools
22:40:21: <Scowly_Unit> Oooh, the first system test
22:40:21: <Sunrise> so thats a +3
22:40:22: <Patchy> 2d6+3
22:40:22: <Bones> Patchy, 2d6+3: 11 [2d6=2,6]
22:40:26: <Sunrise> Fffff
22:40:26: <Patchy> eeyup
22:40:27: <Sunrise> Woah
22:40:40: <Patchy> :3
22:42:14: <Patchy> so, um, who narrates that?
22:42:47: <Patchy> I suppose players could be trusted with narrating total successes
22:43:41: <Sunrise> Eh, we'll just do it how we do in the PnP, the most professional way, first to hit the Enter key
22:43:52: <Patchy> like a bawss
22:47:27: <Scowly_Unit> Per check, anything usable on the process floor?
22:47:38: <Patchy> doing the same actually
22:47:49: <Patchy> so, I suppose highest rolls or something?
22:48:48: <Scowly_Unit> 1 per and flashlight, say +1 = 2d6 + 2 for me
22:49:15: <Patchy> me too, so
22:49:24: <Patchy> 1d2 1 means I roll
22:49:26: <Bones> Patchy, 1 means I roll: 2 [1d2=2]
22:49:29: <Patchy> you go ;p
22:50:26: <Scowly_Unit> 2d6 + 2
22:50:26: <Bones> Scowly_Unit, + 2: 3 [2d6=1,2]
22:50:32: <Patchy> pffft xD
22:50:34: <Scowly_Unit> Owwww
22:50:42: <Patchy> that's a 5 btw
22:50:44: <Patchy> but still
22:58:24: squeaky is failing this so hard. XD
22:58:31: <Scowly_Unit> Lol
22:58:49: <Scowly_Unit> It's certainly a different theory
22:58:49: <Patchy> nah, just get used to it ;p
22:59:01: <Sunrise> Hehe yeah
22:59:18: <Patchy> so, any rolls required for our actions?
23:04:14: <Scowly_Unit> Hey hey julep
23:04:26: Julep waves. "This is glorious."
23:04:43: <Scowly_Unit> It's toasterrific
23:05:19: <Sunrise> Hahaha
23:05:57: <Sunrise> And heya Julep :D
23:06:38: <Sunrise> Fuck, I accidentally a female Squeaky
23:06:45: <Patchy> hahaha xD
23:06:53: <Julep> ... robots have genders?
23:07:00: <Scowly_Unit> Yep
23:07:04: <Julep> That's some nifty sentience you have there.
23:07:10: <Sunrise> Apparently they do now, thanks to my typing
23:07:13: <Julep> XD
23:07:23: <Scowly_Unit> A software setting and optional genital equipment
23:07:35: <Scowly_Unit> Call it "hard ware"
23:07:39: <Julep> ...
23:07:41: <Julep> no.
23:07:43: <Julep> Bad.
23:07:44: <Julep> XD
23:07:54: <Scowly_Unit> 8D
23:07:54: <Patchy> I will inform you pony-shaped meatbag that self-conscious units can have all the genders they want, including metrosexuals if they like machine oil and winter armor fashion very much!
23:08:02: Julep has seen some distinctly R34 ponybots. Just... not... no.
23:08:12: <Scowly_Unit> Winter armor is always in fashion
23:08:23: <Scowly_Unit> Sunrise, we require loot
23:08:47: <Patchy> aha, so you are coming out of the stais pod Scowly_Unit? CONFESS!
23:09:18: <Scowly_Unit> This unit confesses to desiring a margarita and a hammock
23:09:24: <squeaky> Hehe
23:09:41: <squeaky> Squeaky was programmed for pony-robot relations (of the social kind, you sickos), so she identifies female even though she's an it.
23:09:42: <Patchy> so Sunrise, any roll for moi? ^.^
23:10:10: <Sunrise> Sorry, was reading Squeaky while typing :p
23:10:16: <Patchy> nah Sunrise THIS IS NOT HOW YOU DO IT, I WAS GONNA ROLLLLLL
23:10:29: <Sunrise> TRY AND STOP ME
23:10:34: <Scowly_Unit> Ahhh I have bad feels about levers now
23:12:18: <Patchy> any of us who can read hard drives?
23:12:25: Julep snickers.
23:12:38: <Scowly_Unit> Http://i.imgur.com/a29Om.jpg
23:12:39: <Patchy> though I suppose Squeaky would be the pony-shaped robot for the job
23:12:46: <Patchy> HAHAHAHAHA
23:12:49: <Julep> XD
23:12:56: <Patchy> So that's what you security things look like!
23:13:08: Patchy is totally the sexy guy in the middle
23:13:12: <Sunrise> Hahaha
23:13:31: <Sunrise> And no, they're literally like HDs, they'd need to be plugged into a terminal
23:13:52: <squeaky> R2-D2 is a playa.
23:13:52: <Patchy> mmm, like the one back in the first room?
23:14:01: <Sunrise> Maybe!
23:14:07: <Patchy> or the one inside here?
23:14:43: <Sunrise> No like the ones in this room, they're industrial stuff
23:14:57: <Sunrise> Bare circuitry, a lot of mechanics etc
23:15:27: <Patchy> aw, sorry
23:18:55: <Scowly_Unit> Huh
23:19:07: <Scowly_Unit> 1d2
23:19:07: <Bones> Scowly_Unit, 1d2: 1 [1d2=1]
23:19:13: <Scowly_Unit> Right
23:22:50: <Patchy> also, the ruleset I brought this dice roll system from offer rolls to to discern and learn more about something, that is, Ilu would have had to roll to discern just what was it about that field
23:23:19: <Patchy> the original version had "10+: ask 3 questions, 7-9: ask 1 question", but you know, whatever you wanna do is fine~
23:23:39: <Sunrise> Pfffsh
23:24:07: <Patchy> the questions were also codified, lemme fetch the text~
23:24:07: <Sunrise> Okay, Patchy, roll Int without any tool use to plug in and attempt to use that HD with the terminal, yeah?
23:24:16: <Bones> Patchy, 2d6+2: 12 [2d6=4,6]
23:24:16: <Patchy> 2d6+2
23:24:20: <Patchy> woooooo
23:24:30: <Sunrise> God damn
23:24:33: Patchy asks for rolls because he is best roller :3
23:24:57: <Scowly_Unit> You monster
23:25:07: <Patchy> >:3
23:25:27: <Patchy> says the walking washing machine
23:26:42: <Scowly_Unit> 3 minutes till offline to drive home
23:26:58: <Scowly_Unit> Eat downtime 2 hours
23:27:11: <squeaky> XD
23:27:14: <Scowly_Unit> Estimate*
23:28:13: <Sunrise> Dang.
23:29:53: <Scowly_Unit> And it's go time for me. Back as soon as possible
23:30:13: <Sunrise> Okay!
23:30:34: <Scowly_Unit> I want more of this. We need forum post and schedule
23:30:43: <Patchy> lolololol
23:30:48: <Sunrise> Oh god
23:30:49: <Scowly_Unit> Hugs to all
23:30:52: <Scowly_Unit> Cheers
23:31:26: <Patchy> although we could really use the fact that tools give more than a +1 next time, they should make more of a difference, but that's for the next time :è
23:31:28: <Patchy> ;p*
23:31:54: <ToasterRepairpony[Asleep]> that induced grins
23:33:24: <squeaky> Hehe
23:33:31: <ToasterRepairpony[Asleep]> I hereby declare Patchy to be best toaster
23:34:02: squeaky suggests stealing something from another game she used to play and adding a ranking level for each item which grants a bonus to rolls equal to that ranking bonus. Going up to 5 at the highest.
23:34:25: <Patchy> aww thanks :)
23:35:01: <Patchy> well, if we're going to use 2d6, then really, +4 is as high as it can ever get, stats+tools
23:35:27: <Patchy> otherwise the whole thing becomes a cakewalk to victory xD
23:36:36: <squeaky> Hehe
23:36:53: <Patchy> although I have noticed that we can use the 1-10 SPECIAL if we use 2d12, it has roughly the same distribution using 24+ for success and 16+ for meh
23:38:13: <Patchy> wait, by the front doors, you mean those at floor 0?
23:38:37: <Patchy> @Sunrise
23:38:45: <Sunrise> Ya
23:38:48: <Patchy> kay
23:38:51: <Sunrise> Like, the main front doors to the building
23:46:08: <Patchy> Mmmm, maybe some spectator might like to take some part while the others are away? :3
23:46:22: <Patchy> I mean, it's not like we got too attached to our characters yet xD
23:48:23: squeaky returns.
23:48:24: <Patchy> also, are we still at floor 0 Sunrise? and which doors are actually locked?
23:48:34: squeaky is sorry for vanishing.
23:48:49: Patchy hugs a friendliest ponybot.
23:49:23: <Sunrise> You're still at floor 0 yeah, the balcony would take you to floor 1 then beyond etc
23:49:45: <Sunrise> And welcome back friendlybot
23:50:35: squeaky is friendlybot, yay!
23:51:18: <Patchy> wait, so I expressed already the will to go up a floor, is there anything restraining me from doing so? Or didn't I? 6.9
23:51:49: <Sunrise> Oh
23:51:58: <Sunrise> Right i thought you meant floor as in the new room you were in
23:51:59: <Sunrise> Okay my bad
23:52:07: <Patchy> ah, I c
23:57:11: <Patchy> so, str+1^
23:57:12: <Patchy> ?*
23:58:03: <Patchy> 2d6+1 doing it anyway
23:58:04: <Bones> Patchy, doing it anyway: 7 [2d6=1,5]
23:58:04: <Sunrise> Yup
23:58:06: <Sunrise> oooh
23:58:17: <Patchy> nice tiem for experimenting, this is
00:00:35: <Patchy> keep in mind that meh successes can include exposing oneself to danger, consuming resources, losing body parts, taking a long time, needing additional parts for completion, etc.
00:02:57: <squeaky> Hehe
00:03:05: <squeaky> You know what ruleset I'd love to use for a game someday?
00:03:10: <Patchy> do tell
00:03:13: <squeaky> The Mountain Witch
00:03:16: <squeaky> Which is awesome.
00:03:35: <Sunrise> Oh shit
00:03:39: <Sunrise> I've fucking read that
00:03:41: <squeaky> It's got this trust system where each player can raise or reduce trust with others each chapter, which gives those others dice they can spend to help or hurt their allies.
00:03:43: <Sunrise> Yeah, man that'd be an awesome game :D
00:03:51: <squeaky> Wouldn't it just?
00:05:31: Patchy brbs.
00:13:03: Patchy backs.
00:14:39: Patchy needs to play more RPGs to widen his rule system knowledge, also funs.
00:15:00: <Patchy> is that /pony/ talking?
00:15:07: <Sunrise> yup!
00:16:52: <Sunrise> Mr_Growly isn't actually here anymore, is he? :p
00:17:15: <Patchy> eh, I'd only wish ;p
00:17:18: <Mr_Growly> Here-ish. Surrounded by goblins in my other game.
00:17:32: <Mr_Growly> He'll speak when we find something he can shoot :p
00:17:55: <Sunrise> Ah-hah
00:17:56: <Sunrise> :D
00:19:28: <Mr_Growly> Oh, and may I assume we security units have speakers with pre-recorded messages?
00:19:48: <Sunrise> Hah, Yeah
00:20:49: <Sunrise> Would be stuff like... [Identifying the fact that you're security and have authorisation to fire] [Calling perps to stop] [Informing them that they're under arrest when they do comply] and then maybe like a [Default greeting] for non-emergancies
00:21:53: <Sunrise> Okay, roll Int, Patchy
00:21:58: <Patchy> that's int?
00:22:05: <Patchy> 2d6+2
00:22:06: <Bones> Patchy, 2d6+2: 10 [2d6=3,5]
00:22:15: Patchy does a hovering happy dance.
00:22:17: <Sunrise> You'll see in a sec
00:22:51: Mr_Growly was thinking for DIE ZEBRA SCUM! or SURRENDER AND YOU WILL BE KILLED PEACEFULLY!
00:23:04: <Patchy> well, you see Sunrise, this system is made so you don't have to think up of complications in advance, you just do when the dice tell you to ;p saves up lots of brain squeezing
00:24:16: <Patchy> in particular, 7-9 is victory with complications, and 6- is failure with complications
00:26:08: <Patchy> ohohoho, you sly fox you Sun ;p
00:26:40: <squeaky> XD
00:27:27: <Sunrise> :3
00:37:58: <squeaky> Charisma?
00:38:35: <Patchy> probably, the parley move I knew about required that in order to demand something you'd need some leverage, something that they want
00:39:01: <Sunrise> Aaand yes, roll CHA
00:39:08: <Patchy> on a 10+ they accept and you can promise you'd grant what they want, on a 7-9 they want proof right now of that.
00:40:10: <Patchy> the thing we could use right now is "We don't kill you," with +1 for lazer pistols! Cooperation! xD
00:40:35: <squeaky> Do I get a bonus for my vocalizer?
00:40:43: <Sunrise> Yup!
00:40:46: <Sunrise> Counts as a Tool
00:40:49: <squeaky> 2d6+3
00:40:50: <Bones> Squeaky, 2d6+3: 7 [2d6=2,2]
00:40:55: <Sunrise> Oh dear
00:41:05: <Patchy> still a kinda success tho
00:41:09: <Sunrise> Yeah
00:41:22: <Sunrise> was mainly looking at the two 2s :p
00:41:50: <Patchy> hahaha, told you, we can't go much higher than +3 or it becomes all a success xP
00:47:16: <Patchy> scanning the folks for ID cards, can I has that? +per?
00:47:59: <Sunrise> Yeah, roll Per. You'll have an employee database you can check for non-hostiles.
00:48:06: <Patchy> 2d6+2
00:48:07: <Bones> Patchy, 2d6+2: 13 [2d6=5,6]
00:48:13: Patchy swags.
00:48:33: <Sunrise> Oh, wait. Squeaky just got a massive jump on you
00:48:41: <Patchy> yup, she did
00:48:56: <Sunrise> Squeaky, roll PER
00:49:04: <Patchy> still, highest rolls, and +2 would be the highest ;p
00:49:05: <Sunrise> To make our their faces in detail, etc
00:50:05: squeaky is only +1 unless she's also got a database
00:50:22: <Patchy> I mean, I vote she uses my result since we're going for the same purpose, and we're cooperating
00:50:23: <Sunrise> Nah, just the +1
00:50:35: <Sunrise> lol, yeah you would say that :p
00:51:00: <Patchy> man, like we did with the scavenging before, highest rolls and that's it, no reason to make all the players roll
00:51:14: <Patchy> otherwise there'd be tons of failures and complications and shix xP
00:51:55: <Sunrise> aight fiiine
00:52:18: <Patchy> yay, so you can tell either of us what the database results are :3
00:54:38: <Mr_Growly> Patchy broadcasting that?
00:54:57: <Patchy> newp, >this is machine speak<
00:55:18: <Mr_Growly> I meant to the rest of us.
00:55:26: <Patchy> oh yeah, then of course I am ;p
00:55:40: Patchy may also be not exactly a stable personality
00:55:42: <Sunrise> Okay. Players can act.
00:56:18: <Mr_Growly> Roll?
00:56:42: <Sunrise> Yup, 2d6+PER
00:56:47: <Sunrise> For pew-pews.
00:57:02: <Mr_Growly> 2d6+2
00:57:03: <Bones> Mr_Growly, 2d6+2: 10 [2d6=4,4]
00:57:11: <Sunrise> Hot diggity
00:57:15: <squeaky> Don't forget your pewpew weapon bonus!
00:57:38: <Mr_Growly> Oh,wasn't sure I got it. So that'd be 11 then.
00:58:08: <Patchy> eh, I may have to rethink later this +1 flat bonus thing ;p
00:58:19: <Bones> Sunrise, 2d6: 7 [2d6=1,6]
00:58:19: <Sunrise> 2d6
00:58:49: <Mr_Growly> Are combat rolls opposed rolls?
00:59:30: <Sunrise> Nah, it's just roll to hit
00:59:39: <Patchy> well, 10+ is all fine and dandy, then it's differentiated beween CC and ranged
00:59:45: <Sunrise> They shot back. Since Patchy ain't going to have time to get to them
00:59:52: <Sunrise> But I guess he's on his way, yeah?
01:00:34: <Patchy> CC 7-9 means you hit and get an attack, ranged 7-9 means you can choose either to expose yourself to danger to get the shot, get a glancing shot, or consume more ammo than strictly necessary
01:01:27: <Patchy> and those last options were player-chosen. (/me is recollecting the rules for Dungeon world with this)
01:02:04: <Sunrise> Ah well
01:02:04: <Patchy> then the enemy makes his move, and it's either plain damage they apply or some other elaborate thing that forces reactive rolls on the players
01:02:16: <Sunrise> Players up again
01:03:00: <Patchy> going for me CC weaponz, would the cutter give me a +1?
01:03:06: <Sunrise> Yup
01:03:11: <Sunrise> And welder
01:03:16: Mr_Growly doesn't has knees.
01:03:17: <Sunrise> But ofc, same attack
01:03:18: <Patchy> 2d6+1
01:03:19: <Bones> Patchy, 2d6+1: 10 [2d6=3,6]
01:03:26: Patchy grins widely.
01:03:39: <Patchy> that was +str btw
01:03:51: <Mr_Growly> 2d6+3
01:03:51: <Bones> Mr_Growly, 2d6+3: 11 [2d6=4,4]
01:05:10: <squeaky> Evidently Growly was built by Solaris Inc. XD
01:05:28: <Patchy> yup, they had their hoof in a lot of things xP
01:07:03: squeaky takes cover. Is talky-bot! Not shooty-bot!
01:08:12: <Sunrise> Players turn, mare is fleeing.
01:08:34: <Patchy> want to have a round of parley Squeaky?
01:10:18: <Patchy> though you'd have to block her path, keep that in mind =P
01:11:22: <Patchy> taking that as a no in 10...
01:11:35: squeaky is typing as fast as she can!
01:11:39: <Patchy> procedure aborted. :p
01:12:02: <Sunrise> :D Okay, roll CHA!
01:12:26: <Mr_Growly> Scratch that if she stops.
01:12:35: <Sunrise> ...With a bonus of +1 from Growly's parting shot
01:12:41: <Patchy> haha, yeah don't worry, I know your timings ;P was just fooling around and seeing if I could get a Y/N answer ;p don't worry about old crazy Patchy
01:12:46: <squeaky> 2d6+4
01:12:47: <Bones> Squeaky, 2d6+4: 7 [2d6=2,1]
01:12:53: squeaky is abysmal at this, apparently. XD
01:12:58: <Sunrise> Hahaha oh my days
01:15:02: <Patchy> mmm, that sounded a bit too agrressive xD I'm not really attacking her here
01:23:04: <Sunrise> Wey
01:23:05: <Sunrise> Welcome back
01:23:09: <Wirepony> o/
01:23:11: <Patchy> yusss
01:23:19: <Patchy> you just missed a combat with some Steel Rangers ;p
01:23:23: squeaky wonders if she even knows what the Steel Rangers are. Would assume so but isn't 100% sure.
01:23:59: <Sunrise> The group has gone through the building and discovered a bunch of steel rangers were trying to steal the factory Maneframe
01:24:02: <Patchy> oh yeah, SR were pre-war stuff
01:24:29: <Patchy> well, war stuff, but still
01:24:29: <Scowly_Unit> oooo!
01:24:56: <Mr_Growly> So'kay, Scowly. I rolled good.
01:25:17: <squeaky> Yeah, I know that, I just figured I'd check. XD
01:25:40: <Sunrise> Yeah she'd be aware of them
01:26:06: <Scowly_Unit> what's the current setting, and how did I get handled?
01:27:14: <Patchy> you weren't ;p just chilling along, doing beeps and shit
01:27:30: <Scowly_Unit> fair enough
01:27:41: <Sunrise> You're currently upstairs in an office. top floor, just outside the Maneframe. There are three dead Steel Rangers here along with three already destroyed pop-up turrets.
01:27:57: <Scowly_Unit> where are the others?
01:28:00: <Sunrise> Below is admin and technology which has a few machines
01:28:01: <Sunrise> With you
01:28:10: <Sunrise> You were just laggin' behind we'll say
01:28:14: Sunrise handwaviums
01:28:18: Scowly_Unit buys in
01:34:20: <Scowly_Unit> processing logfile
01:41:22: <Scowly_Unit> Top Squeaky Priority!
01:41:31: <squeaky> Well yes.
01:41:44: <squeaky> She's a pony-robot relations unit! Ofcourse her first priority is protecting pony-kind. XD
01:41:49: <Scowly_Unit> still, amusing channel entry break placement
01:43:01: <Patchy> entry break?
01:43:06: <Patchy> *does not compute*
01:44:01: <Patchy> so Sun, gotta roll anything here?
01:44:19: <Sunrise> Right, yeah. Roll Int
01:44:24: <Sunrise> No bonuses
01:44:27: <Patchy> 2d6+2
01:44:27: <Bones> Patchy, 2d6+2: 12 [2d6=5,5]
01:44:32: <Patchy> :3
01:44:33: <Sunrise> Dang
01:44:37: <Scowly_Unit> http://i.imgur.com/Rp77F.png
01:44:46: <Scowly_Unit> Squeaky Priority.
01:44:54: <Patchy> LOL!
01:45:07: <Sunrise> Wait
01:45:11: <Sunrise> What the fuck even happened there
01:45:23: <Patchy> you don't wanna know hahahaha
01:45:30: <Sunrise> I read it was Squeaky. Then took your roll anyway.
01:45:32: <Sunrise> I just
01:45:36: <Sunrise> Christ I need a dirnk
01:45:42: Kingsley[Chores] claps
01:46:45: <Patchy> so anyway, I was checking the state of Julie and the stuff she was supposed to be connected to.
01:49:25: <Sunrise> Gotta say, mental image of that is quite cool.
01:49:34: <Patchy> ^^
01:50:09: <Sunrise> This post apoc survivor sitting down face to face with an almost pristine pre-war robot lookalike
01:50:20: <squeaky> XD
01:50:35: <squeaky> Yes, exactly/
01:51:22: <Patchy> >Female of a main race closing in with an appendage to touch a representative of another
01:51:29: <Patchy> where have I seen this before xP
01:52:00: <Scowly_Unit> it's a russian water tentacle!
01:52:08: <Patchy> BLEAURGHGSJDFHGSJFD
01:53:47: <squeaky> XD
01:53:51: <squeaky> Wat?
01:54:11: <Sunrise> I don't even either
01:54:33: <Patchy> nothing, just craziness as usual, move along pls
01:54:54: <Scowly_Unit> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xNLtPLFECNw
01:55:00: <Sunrise> Btw, I'm keeping that roll so don't worry Patchy. So if Squeaky gives the go ahead you can pop the thing open and remove the matrix
01:55:10: <Scowly_Unit> the abyss is one of the best movies ever >.<
01:55:28: <squeaky> Oh, that scene. XD
01:55:49: Kingsley[Chores] is listening to the Shadow of the Colossus soundtrack while reading the RP channel
01:55:51: <Patchy> well, I was also checking the status of the thing, I mean, the Maneframe was connected to the whole building , right? So I was scanning for signs of other functioning bots
01:56:56: Sunrise has the System Shock 1+2 soundtrack on
01:57:03: <Sunrise> Previously was Journey
01:57:22: <Sunrise> Oh, Neo Tokyo soundtrack as well
01:57:32: <Scowly_Unit> Underpony at the moment. I'm home, so I'm plugged into ~300gb of tunes on shuffle
01:57:36: <Kingsley[Chores]> wow
01:57:48: <Kingsley[Chores]> System Shock soundtrack would give that scene a totally different feel
01:58:00: squeaky isnt' listening to anything right now. XD
01:58:09: Kingsley[Chores] is now creeped out by Squeaky
01:58:42: Patchy feels his inquiries being ignored
01:58:57: <Scowly_Unit> <Patchy> well, I was also checking the status of the thing, Imean, the Maneframe was connected to the whole building , right? So I was scanning for signs of other functioning bots
01:59:08: <Scowly_Unit> I'm interested in that result as well ;)
01:59:33: <squeaky> <@Sunrise> Btw, I'm keeping that roll so don't worry Patchy. So if Squeaky gives the go ahead you can pop the thing open and remove the matrix
02:00:05: <Patchy> that doesn't answer my question, you know ;p if we shut the thing down we won't have ways to check
02:01:27: <Sunrise> Kingsley[Chores] which scene? I only just switched it on a few minutes ago :p
02:01:55: <Kingsley[Chores]> Sunrise: the touching-Squeaky scene
02:02:07: <Kingsley[Chores]> SoTC made it all ambient and magical
02:02:19: <Sunrise> Heh. Maybe one of the Command Decks would have been sufficiently creepy.
02:02:20: <Kingsley[Chores]> system shock makes it creeeepy
02:02:49: <Sunrise> Also looks like Scowly_Unit has actived Override: 420
02:03:13: <Scowly_Unit> My primary objective is to not stress my processor
02:03:20: Scowly_Unit blames Patchy
02:03:43: <squeaky> XD
02:04:25: <Sunrise> Do not stess my processor. You wouldn't like me when my processor exceeds recommended temperatures.
02:04:49: <Scowly_Unit> Revelatory Statement: Captain, that is my secret. My processor always exceeds recommended temperatures.
02:04:52: <Scowly_Unit> @_@
02:05:07: <Scowly_Unit> did we lose Scygnus, or is he planning on returning?
02:05:30: <Mr_Growly> I'm paying atention.
02:05:52: Scowly_Unit facedesks
02:06:03: <Scowly_Unit> forgot the translation matrix, sorry
02:06:17: <Patchy> He's the strong, silent type, y aknow
02:11:12: Scowly_Unit debates looting
02:12:25: Patchy fails heavily xD
02:12:36: <Scowly_Unit> yes you do
02:12:51: <Scowly_Unit> no more sourdough for you, mister! you're back on white bread detail.
02:12:58: <Sunrise> Looting may be a problem. This isn't a conventional RPG :p The only player with an inventory is Squeaky
02:13:08: <squeaky> Hehe
02:13:10: <Sunrise> Your guns run on your internal batteries
02:13:46: <squeaky> Obviously we must enlist industrious pony-units to repair and upgrade our systems!
02:14:00: <Patchy> yussss
02:14:24: Kingsley[Chores] is dawwing
02:14:52: <Scowly_Unit> Ze Maneframe is mudder, Ze maneframe is fadda!
02:16:03: <Sunrise> Ello muddah. Ello fada. 'ere I am at. Post-Equestria!
02:17:16: <Scowly_Unit> times are horrid, skies are cloudy.
02:17:26: <Scowly_Unit> But at least we aren't in Hoofington by golly!
02:18:22: Scowly_Unit is snickering hard at using Tourist Speak on the stupid organic.. what's wrong with their radio recievers anyway?
02:18:47: <Mr_Growly> Come to think of it, did original FO:E ever say anything about how taint affects robots? I know there was that one in PH...
02:19:21: <Scowly_Unit> oooh.
02:19:36: <Patchy> eh, taint would probably screw up a bit the spell matrixes at most, doesn't do shiz to metal
02:19:44: <Scowly_Unit> that's.. a good question. There didn't appear to be much damage or change to the automated systems in Maripony
02:19:57: <Scowly_Unit> Unless and until we get souls, we're probably fine.
02:20:36: <squeaky> IMP doesn't seem to affect inorganic compounds at all.
02:20:43: <Mr_Growly> Yeah. I was just checking. The one in PH just reached a level of actual self-awareness, which we're already at.
02:20:51: <squeaky> Certainly it didn't mutate or change Red-Eye's cybernetics or PipBuck as far as we can tell.
02:21:05: <Mr_Growly> And you-know-who was right there,so that probably had something to do with it.
02:21:59: squeaky should suggest calling this to a close when we leave the building. Well... First gonna have to find out if this nice pony can turn off the magnets around the door, then leave. But should get to bed soon.
02:22:25: Patchy had enough fun for today as well xD
02:22:30: <Scowly_Unit> I'm ok with this
02:22:50: <Patchy> So! How is the system holding up according to you guys?
02:23:07: <Scowly_Unit> pretty well.
02:23:14: <Scowly_Unit> we need moar loots!
02:23:33: <Scowly_Unit> - specifically, it is a real robo-headache having to interact with organic meatbags through a single point
02:23:55: squeaky thinks it's pretty good so far.
02:24:19: <Patchy> telepathy expansion it is then!
02:24:22: <squeaky> We all have our purposes, Scowly!
02:24:24: <Mr_Growly> I'm enjoying it.
02:24:50: squeaky is totally useless at fighting and has basically no technical tools. XD Is mostly analytical and communications.
02:24:59: <Scowly_Unit> fair enough
02:25:15: <Scowly_Unit> I wish I'd been able to stay in while I was drivintg home from work, that's for certain
02:30:34: <squeaky> And end? Unless anyone else wants to respond to the state of the wasteland?
02:30:47: <Sunrise> ^ that is what im waiting for
02:30:55: <Sunrise> I've got a couple more lines to deliver and im done
02:33:57: <Sunrise> Mr_Growly? Any last words? :p
02:34:41: <Sunrise> Hah
02:34:44: <Sunrise> Like a boss
02:34:50: <Scowly_Unit> woot woot
02:34:55: <Mr_Growly> I need to work up a nice little speech for when it's time to actually explain himself.
02:35:44: <Scowly_Unit> so when's the Next Bat Time?
02:36:18: <Patchy> Same Bat day, earlier-ish Bat hour?
02:36:56: <Scowly_Unit> Difficult for me, i was at work 8(
02:37:03: <Patchy> since we had to forge the rules today xD can you believe it, we got to make the rules of a game /and/ playtest it in the same day!
02:37:05: <squeaky> Patchy is totally aiming for robopocalypse. XD He wants me to be redundent ;-;
02:37:16: <squeaky> Hehe
02:37:25: <Scowly_Unit> we're all crash test dummies! hooray!
02:37:33: Scowly_Unit jumps off a parking structure
02:37:52: Patchy will totally keep Squeaky around as proof that even the lowly pony shape can be improved upon and made beauty with the right gears and spell matrxes
02:37:59: <Scowly_Unit> O_O
02:39:08: <squeaky> XD
02:39:15: <Patchy> that'd be plenty of inspiration for the troops :3
02:40:07: <Scowly_Unit> ...shake that robo-butt
02:40:14: <Patchy> unf!
02:40:15: Scowly_Unit has a bad mind and is hitting himself
02:40:16: squeaky snrks.
02:41:18: Patchy should definitely remember to crack a Sweetiebot joke at some point, or maybe he should just leave that department to the actual pony-shaped bot xP
02:41:23: <Scowly_Unit> so there was no loot during the whole session?
02:41:32: <Scowly_Unit> That would certainly be Squeak's baliwick, yes
02:41:50: <Patchy> well, there was the red card, the HD, and the spell matrix
02:41:59: <Scowly_Unit> ....FFFFFFFFFFF
02:42:06: <Scowly_Unit> Chekov's Box!
02:42:21: <Mr_Growly> Eeyup.
02:42:31: Scowly_Unit tears his hair out
02:42:38: <Sunrise> :D
02:42:57: <Mr_Growly> Forget a full voicebox, I just want 'Eeyup' and 'Anope' added to my recordings.
02:43:09: <Wirepony> ha!
02:43:12: <Wirepony> Bot Macintosh?
02:43:38: <Sunrise> Yeah, thats it. Just a one shot. Hope you guys enjoyed it!
02:43:40: <squeaky> No, no, not a chekov's box.
02:43:48: <squeaky> That's the box which Group 1 got ahold of at the observatory
02:43:54: <Wirepony> ahhh
02:43:55: <Patchy> eeyup
02:43:56: <squeaky> Remember? The hard drive was specifically complaining it had to go to Stable 9.
02:43:59: <Kingsley[Chores]> orsonwellesclap.gif
02:44:13: <Stygius> What? We're not going to play more with these characters? Awwww...
02:44:15: Ilushia snuggles Sunrise. ^^
02:44:26: <Wirepony> that was some good stuff, Sunrise.
02:44:35: <Kingsley[Chores]> I was hoping for more Squeaky. :[
02:44:36: Chor huggles a Sunrise!
02:44:47: <Sunrise> Naw, sorry man. I don't have the time/commitment to run a length campaign. But I'm happy that this went well enough :D
02:44:57: Sunrise hugs all! Yay~
02:45:04: <Kingsley[Chores]> aww!
02:45:08: <Chor> wheeee, nao we can post system for flashy gamez!
02:45:08: Wirepony droops
02:45:13: Ilushia giggles, snuggles friends.
02:45:28: <Stygius> Can I get a copy of the logs, anyways?
02:45:30: <Kingsley[Chores]> someone link me to the log of this when it's posted
02:45:34: Ilushia is admittedly a little sad about it ending there. But had lots of fun. <3
02:45:34: <Wirepony> lol
02:45:35: <Kingsley[Chores]> cough hivemind cough
02:45:42: <Sunrise> Hah.
02:45:44: <Wirepony> I like this system
02:45:47: <Chor> herdmind*
02:45:50: <Wirepony> it's pared down about as far as you can get.
02:45:55: <Stygius> It's awesome as a pickup system.
02:46:27: <Chor> needs to be made harsher though, having +3 as most used bonus is atrocious xD
02:46:31: <Kingsley[Chores]> and so ended the best sidestory that never was
02:47:05: <Wirepony> mmm, I'm sure if we had more than one or two sessions.
02:47:17: Wirepony suspects Sunrise had the difficulty waaay down
02:47:30: <Sunrise> Yeah :p
02:47:33: <Ilushia> XD
02:47:51: <Chor> yeah, you could have been crueler at the wooden door
02:48:10: Chor however did all 10+ but that one, so he couldn't possibly have failed ANYTHING ELSE
02:48:12: <Sunrise> I know, man. Those fucking things are a bitch to move.
02:48:40: <Sunrise> Okay! Log time
02:48:47: <Kingsley[Chores]> \o/
02:50:17: <Chor> http://pastebin.com/GQDSW9G4
02:50:30: <Sunrise> Oh shit
02:50:33: <Sunrise> It just hit me now
02:50:38: <Sunrise> We did actually have 4 players
02:50:40: <Sunrise> So
02:51:18: <Sunrise> >Four legendary toasters did indeed embark on a voyage of self-discovery in the wasteland of post apocalypse Swede- i mean, Equestria!
02:51:36: <Wirepony> \o/
02:51:44: <Sunrise> MISSION COMPLETE
02:51:52: <Ilushia> Yep. XD
