* ANG|IRN (uid214746@id-214746.tooting.irccloud.com) has joined
<Nation95X> Uh, wow, congrats.
<Nephara> nice
<Gregoryisgodistan> Congrats!
<ANG|IRN> Nation95x just curious are you going to punish Lukalaw for stealing my players
<Gregoryisgodistan> Don't get your emails hacked.
<StJames> Congrats
<Eshan> Thank you all many!!!!!
<llama> ayy congrats!
<ANG|IRN> *Lukakulaw
<Eshan> Hope I get the job D:
<Eshan> LOL Greg
<Gregoryisgodistan> Or they'll come up with some conspiracy theory about Gregoryisgodistan.
<NorthernSunrise> congrats Eshan
<Nation95X> Folks around here are asking themselves "Does the Democratic Party still exist?" :P
<drawk> I was under the impression that Esportiva was /west/ of Rushmore and that AO was east of Rush and West of Espo
<Nation95X> ANG|IRN: ?
<ANG|IRN> Look at his lineups and look at my most recent WC roster
<NorthernSunrise> Well, you're not alone in the North, Ethane
<NorthernSunrise> I wonder if RB is moving out
<ANG|IRN> I don't really give a damn about a newbie taking my player names but I was just wondering about that
<llama> hm i would be down for moving to the northwest if possible
<Ethane> Yeah I'm not *alone*, but Im alone in terms of those who are active (exclu. now omerica)
<llama> idk why i chose my current spot
<llama> nobody active is there
<Ethane> now I'm gonna get flooded lol
<NorthernSunrise> ...
<StJames> Nation95X: "I am not a member of any organized political party. I am a Democrat."
<NorthernSunrise> Seriously, why do people forget I'm at the north
<NorthernSunrise> =P
<Nation95X> StJames: actually, I'm nonpartisan, period. :P
<llama> we're not /that/ close to each other though
<Ethane> You're nowhere near me tho :')
<NorthernSunrise> Anyway, I'll talk with Sarian
<Ethane> ???
<StJames> As am I.
<NorthernSunrise> If we're keeping this alive, we need all the help we can get
<Ethane> oh map yeah
<NorthernSunrise> And maybe the whole post on the RMB was enough to whisk a return
<Ethane> I didn't think Sarian was that interested in sports anymore tho?
<llama> ^^
<StJames> NorthernSunrise: If you need my help, I’m on call. o7
<NorthernSunrise> Only one way to find out
<NorthernSunrise> Well, if you're sticking around StJames.
* Chrom|herenothere (webchat@76.sub-70-199-144.myvzw.com) has joined
<Ethane> Hey Chrom
<NorthernSunrise> We'd love to have you on board
<StJames> I plan to stick around this time. ;)
<llama> Hey Chrom!
* Fanboy is now known as FanboyAFK
<Ethane> yay
<Chrom|herenothere> Mostly not here,want a transcript to follow
<credo> hi Chrom
<credo> lol, you anticipate something exciting happening? :p
<Ethane> oh okay
<Chrom|herenothere> Tis an important day to have a firsthand account of
<ANG|IRN> The fact that Lukakulaw has a player named Marco Saint Paul /is/ ridiculous though
<ANG|IRN> And he didn't even keep the clubs the same when he stole my players
<NorthernSunrise> ..
<NorthernSunrise> I thought he was just putting it as a news post
<ANG|IRN> Apparently Marco plays for someone called Willowwick FC now
<Ethane> Nephara - how will you get around the move in your IC'ly though?
<ANG|IRN> It is a news post NorthernSunrise, but he has his team lineup there and apparently he didn't want to make his own players
<Ethane> oh wait, Neph left for football
<Damukuni> Chrom|herenothere: 'Sup
<Damukuni> ?
<NorthernSunrise> oh shit
<NorthernSunrise> Maybe his team is Dural
<Chrom|herenothere> I was oddfrog damu sorry
<Eshan> knew it
<Nephara> not quite yet
<Damukuni> Chrom|herenothere: Lol
<Nephara> ethane nephara hasn't moved geographically
<Damukuni> We kinda guessed that?
<Nephara> it was on the NW corner of esportiva
<Ethane> oh okay
<ANG|IRN> He couldn't even make it subtle and name his midfielder 'Mario Saint Paul' or something that would keep it from being a ripoff XD
<Nephara> it is nowgoing to be in the SE corner of rushmore
<Nephara> no worries, it's a fair question
<Chrom|herenothere> In a way it'll connect the two regions
<Damukuni> Nephara: Funny, I read that as "the SE corner of nowhere"
<Eshan> lel
<Ethane> Does that mean I'm like, right close to Rushmore?
<credo> maybe he just used a name generator?
<Nation95X> ANG|IRN: have you tried contacting Lukakulaw directly for an explanation?
<credo> I usually wouldn't assume someone has negative intent :P
<Ethane> ^^^
<credo> (as in, innocent until proven guilty)
<ANG|IRN> I probably will, I literally just saw
<ANG|IRN> But Credo, he took three of my player names
<credo> like if my player was named "John Smith" and so was yours
<ANG|IRN> Marco Saint Paul, Bram Norcliff, and Axel Morrow
<ANG|IRN> It's not just random common names
* Bazalonia (~chatzilla@C-61-69-203-186.for.connect.net.au) has joined
<credo> I wouldn't go whining to moderation "AAAAHHHH ANGLATIA STOLE MY NAME JOHN SMITH AAAAHHH"
<Ethane> with more rare names, it is more suspicious, but check first
<credo> ^
<credo> who knows he could have used the same namegen as yours, and that namegen has a very small pool of names
<Gregoryisgodistan> Well, if anyone uses my names, it will be obvious since nobody in any other country is named Pervert Chaser 094U809SAUDFBASDF.
<llama> I didn't think anglatia used a namegen though?
<ANG|IRN> I didn't even use a namegen Credo, except for with Bram
<Nation95X> That's different than what I was thinking, but along the same lines.
<credo> lol
<Nephara> trivia hour: there's an Osarian and a Brenecian Samantha Pearce
<Nephara> okay bye
<Ethane> It may just be a similar name generator, much like Gregoryisgodistan's 'alternative facts' rp
* credo names his player Axle Tomorrow
<credo> :p
<Nation95X> Credo's comment about using the same generator.
<ANG|IRN> You won't even get names like the ones I use for a lot of my NT in namegens because of the mix matching of ethnicities that happens in Anglatia
<ANG|IRN> But anyway yeah I wouldn't be suspicious if it wasn't for three players with the same ages numbers and names as mine
<credo> on Behind the Name you can set mix and match ethnicities :P
<NorthernSunrise> eh, I'm sure he didn't do it just to spite you Anglatia
<llama> trivia hour: i accidentally named a player elias möller this cycle
<StJames> I used the mix-and-match to come up with names for Francophone Omericans back when that was a thing
<Eshan> trivia hour: Alexio del Nieran is the greatest NS football player in the history of anything
<Gregoryisgodistan> Same ages, numbers, and names? That's suspicious.
<StJames> Threw in some Italian and Catalan surnames into the mix
<ANG|IRN> I know, I'm just annoyed because one of the players is my biggest star midfielder, NorthernSunrise
<NorthernSunrise> I understand your problem, but chill down a bit
<StJames> But, yeah, if it’s the same ages and numbers too, that’s suspicious
<Eshan> yes please chill
<ANG|IRN> Actually it wasn't ages but same names and numbers
<NorthernSunrise> Maybe ask him about it calmly and I'm sure you two can figure that out
<StJames> ^^^
<Damukuni> Trivia Hour: Wisdom Tracey managed the Damukuni NT starting at age 21.
<NorthernSunrise> He seems reasonable.
<Eshan> yeah dude just talk to him hahahahaha
<Nation95X> Given this is being brought to my attention as the two nations face each other in the Semifinals instead of when the roster was posted or by MD 1, my official answer on the roster is that it's a big multiverse and it's entirely possible that someone has the same name.
<Ethane> It is suspicious, BUT ASK. Don't assume.
<Eshan> not a big deal
<Astograth> I once had someone rip my club's logo - not the RL one /I/ ripped, but /my/ derivative :P
<Nation95X> Maybe I should have done the cutoff 18 minutes ago. :P
<StJames> Cock up before conspiracy
<ANG|IRN> StJames, that would make sense if it was just MSP or Norcliffe or Morrow but do you really think someone just happened to come up with those names randomly, and that they just happened to make their MSP a 19 year old that wears #10
* llama has quit (Ping timeout: 180 seconds)
<Damukuni> Trivia Hour: I ripped my church's logo and recoloured it for the Associations Twenty20 League.
<Eshan> Ang
<Eshan> talk to him
* Nephara has quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
<NorthernSunrise> btw NFX, I'm not feeling well to RP with Esvorpita
<Eshan> not us
<NorthernSunrise> If you don't mind
<ANG|IRN> I'm going to, I'm just saying there's no way that it's a coincidence
<ANG|IRN> You guys seem to think it's random
<Astograth> (Btw, seeklogo.com is awesome)
<Nation95X> No I don't mind, was thinking of asking you NSI.
<StJames> All I’m saying is don’t automatically assume malicious intent.
<credo> ^
<Nation95X> Same with StJames.
<ANG|IRN> Not necessarily saying it's malicious, but I don't think most would take kindly to someone exactly copy and pasting one of their players and taking two others from the same roster while changing the ages and numbers
<tinhampton> Trivia Hour (tm): Tinhampton were the second-best unranked team in the qualifiers, beaten only by eventual qualifiers Spaam.
<ANG|IRN> Especially when one of the players is a major star, it would be like if I just copy and pasted Andrew Arrowsword or Rodolfo Zelaya or someone
<Eshan> well no
<Eshan> those are actual stars
<NorthernSunrise> Actually, Anglatia
<Eshan> so it’s a bit different lol
<NorthernSunrise> I don't think it's random
<Nation95X> ANG|IRN, you have stated your assertion however need proof to your claim.
<NorthernSunrise> It kind of could be
<credo> wut Andrew Arrowsword is a major star
<Damukuni> Trivia Hour: Damukuni only barely beat Tinhampton ... :)
<StJames> Talk with him about it calmly and see if it’s just a misunderstanding or a mistake.
<NorthernSunrise> But still, you really should just ask him out peacefully
<ANG|IRN> Eshan, Marco Saint Paul has played almost every match that we've done as a NT, he's a major star for us
<credo> you would never think about that seeing all the crap that SJG and people give him :p
<ANG|IRN> And Nation95x the proof is in my WC roster and his post
<Eshan> I wouldn’t use major star tho lol
<Eshan> I wouldn’t call my best player a major star like Zelaya
<Eshan> Andrew
<Eshan> absolutely yes
<Damukuni> credo: But that's because it's become the running joke
<Eshan> andrew arrowsword is terrible
<Eshan> the worst even
<Eshan> well no
<Eshan> worst implies you were good to begin with
<Eshan> or had some level of skill
<Nation95X> ANG|IRN: What's your position on RL sports leagues fining players and/or staff and management for criticizing league officiating and/or management?
<Astograth> No it doesnt :P
<credo> Eshan is the worst
<ANG|IRN> I think it's kind of stupid but I don't really have an opinion one way or the other
<ANG|IRN> It's not like athletes can't afford fines
<Eshan> https://media.giphy.com/media/3oz8xLd9DJq2l2VFtu/giphy.gif
<Eshan> @credo
<Eshan> man I gotta hotkey that gif
<credo> lol
<StJames> two thumbs up
<ANG|IRN> But anyway, my point wasn't to say that MSP is one of the top players in the NSWC, it's that nobody would react well with one of their key players getting ripped off by someone else
<Nation95X> Then you will understand that I've said that without proof your claim has no merit. If you continue to make this claim without supporting evidence I will deduct points from your current RP bonus.
<Ethane> woah
<Eshan> whew
<ANG|IRN> Look at my roster though?
<ANG|IRN> I'll link it
<Gregoryisgodistan> That seems harsh.
<ANG|IRN> Unless you mean I can't prove that he was trying to copy my players
<Damukuni> Hey Nation95X , 'sup?
<Ethane> I agree with Greg
<StJames> I agree with Greg
<Damukuni> Got that new rig up and running yet?
<StJames> Damn you, ninja!
* StJames waves fists in the air
<Damukuni> Also, what are you currently hosting, Nation95X ? I don't remember you bidding for anything other than the last AOCAF
<drawk> GCoS
<Damukuni> Oh right
<Damukuni> as Portlandistan
<Damukuni> duh
<Damukuni> I'm Exitsignia in that thing :P
* Damukuni runs
<Gregoryisgodistan> But Anglatia is in the World Cup so he can't be in that.
<Ethane> ^^^ that idea was great
<Ethane> you can thank me later Damu :P
<Eshan> you’re welcome
<Nation95X> Ang is in as The Redvale.
<Damukuni> Ethane: I was making a roster for it, but then I was called to a meeting
<Damukuni> Nation95X: Right. Evaded my mind for a minute
<Ethane> oh thats sad :(
<Damukuni> Ethane: Wasn't YOUR idea :)
<ANG|IRN> Nation95x if you deduct RP bonus because of this I'm just going to scrap the RP that I wrote and drop the tournament completely
<Ethane> No, but it was INSPIRED by The Great Pi
<ANG|IRN> There's such thing as beyond reasonable doubt, you know
<credo> and you don't got it
<ANG|IRN> I could see your argument about not having evidence if there was just one player with the name of one of mine, because that could easily be a coincidence, but there's no way that this happens with three
<Gregoryisgodistan> Yes, but civil claims only require preponderance of evidence.
<Gregoryisgodistan> So unless he wants to throw someone in jail, that's all he needs.
<ANG|IRN> Especially when I didn't just get these names out of an rng
<credo> STOP BITCHING ABOUT IT TO US
<credo> AND TG LUKAKU LAW ABOUT IT
<credo> we're tired of your ranting about this
<credo> we all know your opinion, and you know ours
<ANG|IRN> I'm not even talking about that, I'm talking about 95x threatening to take away my RP bonus
<Farf> I'm siding with Anglatia on this one
<Farf> This is well beyond reasonable doubt
<Farf> Exceedingly so
<Nation95X> When someone who was regularly disciplined back in high school for questioning authority says they're tired of someone's statement because of the lack of evidence, that should say something.
<Nation95X> ;)
<Gregoryisgodistan> I agree with Farf. And 95X threatening to take away RP bonus is completely uncalled for regardless.
<Ethane> I think if you took it to moderation, they would probably strike it down as plagiarism
<Gregoryisgodistan> If Quebbles threatening to take away RP Bonus from Sarian for repeatedly harassing and impersonating him was over the top, what 95X did certainly is.
<Ethane> ^
<Nation95X> I haven't opened the spreadsheet yet.
<Eshan> I think ANG should just TG him and be like “the fuck bro”
<Eshan> and we can all stop talking about it
<Ethane> But I still think a TG is the best path
<Eshan> because who cares
<Eshan> at all
<Eshan> even one bit
<Eshan> tiny little bit at that
<Ethane> Anglatia cares :P
<Gregoryisgodistan> At this point, I'm concerned about 95X's integrity as a host.
<Eshan> ANG just TG him and get it settled with, 95X just don’t dock
<Eshan> easy
<Eshan> good job team
<Eshan> we’re going home
<StJames> ^^^
* Ethane is going home
<drawk> ^^^
* Damukuni has quit (Quit: http://www.kiwiirc.com/ - A hand crafted IRC client)
<ANG|IRN> Nation95x, so to get this straight, you're telling me that someone came up with names randomly and just happened to get Marco Saint Paul, Axel Morrow, and Bram Norcliffe, and that MSP happens to be 19 and wear number ten, and play in the midfield along with the other two, and that it's all a coincidence
<Ethane> 'Wait, I am gome'
<Ethane> ffs
<Ethane> pls stahp and tg the nation
<Eshan> silly Ethane
<Eshan> ^^^^
<StJames> ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
<ANG|IRN> For fuck's sake, I'm going to send the TG, but the stupid threats are more annoying than what actually happened
* Nation95X is now known as NextOption95X
<Gregoryisgodistan> I agree with Anglatia on this.
<Eshan> coulda fooled us
<Ethane> yes, and I agree
<Eshan> anywho
<Gregoryisgodistan> He would have shut up if 95X hadn't threatened hin.
<Eshan> problem solved
<Gregoryisgodistan> him*
<StJames> On the RP bonus, I’m on Anglatia’s side
<Ethane> But I think this is for 95X to address. Continuing to rant doesn't help.
<StJames> On everything else, no
<Ethane> and I do think 95X should address the criticisms
<Gregoryisgodistan> Agreed, Ethane.
* Damukuni (kiwiirc@23.226.82.146) has joined

<NorthernSunrise> Anglatia, calm down. Telegram LukakuLaw about it.
<NorthernSunrise> You two solve it peacefully. All that I ask.
<NorthernSunrise> Second, NFX, don't say you'll punish him for bringing it up repeatedly like a kid on sugared coffee
<NorthernSunrise> You've been doing a fantastic job at all tournaments you host, you don't need to bring it up on you.

* FanboyAFK has quit (Ping timeout: 180 seconds)
<NorthernSunrise> No need for controversy or anything of the like.
<credo> you just missed a very interesting convo
<ANG|IRN> I just wanted to know if he was going to lose points for plagiarism NSI
<Eshan> LOL
<StJames> Hello, Electrum. o/
<Eshan> hahahahaha
<Electrum> that alwas happens
<NorthernSunrise> It's not ethical for NFX to tell you
<Eshan> “Ok? Ok."
<NorthernSunrise> Maybe after the tournament.
<ANG|IRN> That was literally my initial question, and then everything after that was arguing over if it was plagiarism or not
<NorthernSunrise> It was.
<credo> Electrum, do you want me to score the TLW lower leagues?
<ANG|IRN> I mean, if that's the answer, he could have said that, but no
<NorthernSunrise> NFX will handle it properly.
* ANG|IRN shrugs
<NorthernSunrise> You literally couldn't have a better host to handle this.
<Eshan> except for me
<Ethane> tru Eshan <3
<Eshan> I woulda kicked you both out of the tournament
<Ethane> oh
<Eshan> XD
<StJames> *two thumbs up*
<NextOption95X> OK, *I* telegrammed Lukakulaw to ask for clarification.
<drawk> Great for a potential co-host
<StJames> Given that Esportiva is temporarily locked down, should we hold off on opening Campionato sign-ups?
<Eshan> Indeed drawk
<Eshan> ;)
<NextOption95X> Because I need to give them time to respond, the Semifinals are postponed to tomorrow.
<NorthernSunrise> We're holding off until tomorrow as well.
<NorthernSunrise> I believe we'll have the whole delegate situation fixed by then.
<NorthernSunrise> Who was responsible for holding sign-ups before this happened?
<Electrum> yes please credo
<StJames> Neph did sign-ups for the last edition
<credo> ok I will today
<NorthernSunrise> ...well.
<NorthernSunrise> Guess it's me now?
<Damukuni> Guess it's now
<Damukuni> *you
<StJames> I did volunteer on the RMB, but if you want to.
<ANG|IRN> You don't have to hold things up NextOption95x, I really don't care at this point. All I wanted was the answer to one question if I'm not getting that then I don't care
<Ethane> 83 minutes ago: The United Kingdom of 2nd Brazilian Empire arrived from The Rejected Realms.
<Ethane> 90 minutes ago: The Scurvy Pirates of Blackbone Bay arrived from Balder.
<Ethane> 91 minutes ago: The Expeditionary Division of The Hodori Defence Forces arrived from Balder. < this was interesting
<ANG|IRN> The one thing I was going to do was send a quick TG asking him if he could not use Marco Saint Paul but since 95x already sent one I'll hold off with that
