7:00 AM
@Sandwich Maybe a part of the halloween costume?
We have horror icons with really thick long nails, they have horses with split or cloven hoofs.
@BESW Tell me: is finding a very long stick and poking the shell to roll it over and then inspecting it from stick's distance remotely adequate?
 
@doppelgreener ....maaaaybe?
What are you inspecting it for?
 
I dont know that seems a bit elaborate XP
 
To see if there is anything in there with a hypodermic tooth.
 
'cause, um, it's easy to mistake a live shell for a dead one from a distance.
 
@Sandwich I think it is meant to be a cloven hoof because it's a devil costume.
Speaking of devilish ponies, if only I had $350 to spend on a plush unicorn.
 
7:03 AM
Yeah, Golden Harvest has normal hooves; it's a costume.
 
@Pixie That unicorn looks out of this world, though I can't truthfully say it is off the chain.
 
Are there any FiM ponies with separate hooves from their main body?
@doppelgreener [thumbs up]
 
Ah, right, Big Mac has 'em.
 
I forget what they call those
Fetlocks?
Something like that
 
7:07 AM
@Sandwich The part of the body or the fur? The fur is called "feathers."
 
Oh man
Daring do has arrived
 
But he's got yellow, distinct hooves beneath his feathers, whereas most ponies don't look like they technically have hooves at all. Which is how it was in G1, too. Only male ponies had distinct hooves.
 
behold, a terrible diagram
terrible because it is horribly misleading
you are now enraged
you acquire level 1 barbarian, pick a feat
 
Sick! Thats a STR and CON bonus and a penalty to AC
And a Morale bonus to will saves yeeeah
 
@doppelgreener I choose GRAAAAAAAH.
 
7:10 AM
@Pixie good choice
attack!
 
@Doppelgreener I'll go with RAAAAAAAGHHH
With accompanying Mouth foam variant of course
 
ooh, I get Uncanny Dodge.
 
[picks up diagram, breaks over knee]
 
(My first level was Barbarian--d12 hp is nice, but +10ft movement? win.)
 
the diagram is defeated!
good job
 
7:11 AM
I will now proceed to cook and eat the diagram
 
@Sandwich also a fine choice! i see you have an eye for detail
@Sandwich the diagram was cursed; you should have left its corpse be! you are now possessed by a wrathful spirit which urges you to create marvellously detailed diagrams that are catastrophically misleading due only to small details.
 
@Doppelgreener Jokes on that Diagram then, I'm an illiterate barbarian!
 
@Sandwich Ha! Fantastic! The spirit is totally counteracted, and its wrathful nature grants you a +1 bonus to actions taken while enraged.
 
Still, you keep getting the undeniable urge to tattoo Ikea furniture assembly instructions across your body.
 
INSERT ROD A INTO SLOT BEEEEEEE RAAAAAAAAGH
 
7:15 AM
@BESW You don't need to be literate for those
 
Only if "Rod A" is my fist, and "Slot B" is your face.
 
@Adeptus Right, that's why he gets the rage bonus.
 
Because that is the barbarian's way.
 
Rod A is my Axe, and Slot B is the groove that my axe makes when it collides with an object
 
@Sandwich Morning. Or probably I should be saying "I'm pancake" since I had to actually think this out before understanding you where talking about me.
 
7:17 AM
@Pancake Howdy
 
@SPArchaeologist GREETINGS!!!
 
@SPArchaeologist ...that took me a moment to remember.
 
The other day, I forgot the phrase for "sock garter" and briefly replaced it in my thoughts with "leg jail."
 
@Pixie it's funny how that makes total sense as well
 
I've only watched up to Season 2 of FiM
But thats funny X3
Leg jail
 
7:21 AM
@doppelgreener Sort of like this.
Except I actually thought it because I could not remember the correct name. :v
 
@BESW Well, DA fanart focus has now shifted from "sleeping on a pancake" to "sleeping on a pile of books", so that is expected.
@doppelgreener Morning, King of All Cosmos
 
Na naaaaa nanana nana naaaa na na naaaa naaa na na naaaaaaaah
Buddah bum buddah bum buddah bum
 
Go katamari do your best
nananananananananananananananana
I'll see you that and raise you this @Pixie imgur.com/gallery/5UTQk
 
Bird leaf is my eternal favorite.
 
7:28 AM
Mine is probably Leg Jail, if only because I have a stockings fetish
 
Leg jail is not very useful, unfortunately. :I
 
You could call Stockings or socks Leg Jail though
Doesnt have to be a garter
Hey you guys my question got answered
It was Marvel Superheroes
 
@SPArchaeologist Good morning!
@Pixie yes :D
 
Raw toast could also be "Sandwich buns"
 
Sand moose and horse tonardo made me lol.
 
7:42 AM
Hahaha Tonardo X3
 
"Sand Moose and Horse Tonardo" would be a good name for a band.
 
Or a performance I'd be very interested in watching.
 
EVERYONE
WE
ARE
HORSE TONARDO
 
AND WE ARE HERE TO WATCH SANDWICH ROCK YOUR EARS OFF
ONE TWO THREE FOUR [drums]
 
I thought we were the Crystal Gems. I have been lied to.
 
7:47 AM
Howd your RFS game go tonight Pix?
 
We are temporarily a Scott Pilgrim parody
Hmmmmm
@Pixie [suddenly pondering new avatar]
 
plays Another Winter
 
So... been a while
Anyone know of something like InvisibleCastle or OpenRPG that's not totally defunct?
 
@Dorian Greetings!
 
yo
 
7:49 AM
@Sandwich Things went well. We introduced Shalvenay's character, and now Miniman's and Nyoze's are trying to find the lost gnome queen, along with the two gnomes and the Turtable (which Nyoze created by warping reality and evolving a table).
 
OpenRPG is still your best bet I think
 
@Dorian Roll20 has taken over most of those niches, I think.
 
Well
Yeah Roll20 sorry
 
More for forums and pbp though
 
OpenRPG was the one that ran off Python yeah?
 
7:49 AM
That's why I liked InvisibleCastle so much.
 
@doppelgreener I've always intended to change mine to something else, but I never get around to it. xD
 
No dont @Pixie
That Vulpix is cute
 
but the site has been totally gutted, as has the OpenRPG site... and in both cases they haven't been touched since like 2012
 
One day I'll change mine to something that isnt a sandwich
 
I am on a train and there is an air con unit above my head that makes a startling loud Ba-THONK every time the train loses or gains power
 
7:51 AM
I mean, Roll20's great, but for some more pbp style games it'd be nice to have something that records rolls and such like InvisibleCastle does
 
"Startling Ba-THONK." Hmm. Not bad.
 
It still technically works... but only barely.
And doesn't look like it could handle maintaining decent game anymore.
 
@Pixie oh I mean for me. Garnet, maybe. (But I dare not make a green Garnet.)
 
Though it does look like some people are still using it to a certain extent
 
@doppelgreener Oh yeah. I just meant that I've been intending to change mine as well for the longest time. xD
Garnet is my favorite. Amethyst is close, though.
 
7:54 AM
@Pixie it's very hard to choose. Steven is also close for me, tho I get all TT___TT whenever Rose appears in any way.
 
@doppelgreener Heh. Prepare yourself for the most recent episode when it makes it your way, then.
 
That will be a while and I imagine I couldn't possibly really prepare.
 
@Pixie This episode was called "The call of Daomon" in the original release... I always hoped they would continue in that direction... but it was just a single strange episode.
 
@doppelgreener I will also say that I can see why from it why everyone is in love with her. Like. Wow. >_>
@SPArchaeologist Oh yeah, that one. I'm not there in my sub rewatch yet.
 
I liked Sora and Biyomon the best
 
7:58 AM
@Pixie !!!!! I await excitedly.
 
Kari < Sora
 
@BESW that onomatopoeia took some thought.
 
Hikari is my favorite forever, but hey, I like Sora too. xD She didn't really get enough screentime, though, I'm noticing on my rewatch. Also I love Mimi roughly 1000x more than I did as a child.
 
Mimi has the best hat
 
@Pixie Mimi == Young Aerith
 
8:01 AM
Palmon with Mimi's hat in the promotional art of Tri made me so emotional.
 
Lilimon is adorable too
 
Yeah, she's one of my favorite Digimon. I'm sad she never got to be Rosemon, though. [stares markedly in Tri's direction]
 
ALSO
WHY HAVENT THEY RERELEASED DIGIMON WORLDS 1/2/3 ON THE PSN
Like WHAT THE HECK MAN
 
I have 1 and 3, but I gotta find a copy of 2 sometime. [groan]
It's probably licensing, though.
 
I have 1 and 2
My brother owns 3
1 is the best one though
2 is probably a close second
 
8:05 AM
I played 2 with a friend as a kid and did enjoy it, but I didn't wind up getting it. I was never in the right place at the right time. xD
 
Its like 50bucks on ebay right now
 
Yeah. I'll grab one someday, but right now I'm just trying to keep up with the new goods coming out.
My Patamon plushie just processed. ; w;
 
Pata pata patamon
 
 
quite adorable
 
8:09 AM
There's not release dates for anybody but Patamon or Agumon, but I am so excited. I am also crying because my money.
 
I asume those are all first forms
I know some of em are but have not seen them all
 
Digimon was one of my favorite series as a kid
 
Child/rookie. The baby forms come before, but most of them don't spend a lot of time in those.
 
ah, ok my bad
 
I liked the Digimon Anime more than the Pokemon one
The Digimon games and the Pokemon games were tied though
Digimon games were more about actively raising your digimon, as opposed to pokemon where it was only a passive thing
 
8:11 AM
@trogdor Not at all, it's kinda confusing, and you almost never even see a baby I. xD
 
that is a confusing thing
 
Egg > Baby > In-training > Rookie > Champion > Ultimate > Mega
From Egg to In-Training only takes about an hour or two
In-Training to Rookie takes 24H
Rookie to Champion takes.. I think its 3D-4D?
Then Champion to Ultimate takes ~12D
 
Baby is also called fresh in the dub. Japanese is Baby I -> Baby II -> Child -> Adult -> Perfect -> Ultimate. Japan's Ultimate didn't exist when they dubbed the show. xD
 
What I posted was just stuff from the first game
 
aand of course my question is closed.
and here I thought I made sure it was different enough
 
8:14 AM
I played Far too much Digimon Curling in that game
 
It also didn't exist at the time of the first Digimon orld, which is why ultimate (perfect) is all you can get.
 
well hopefully that's clarification enough
 
Hehe, Digimon Curling. Penguinmon is so cute.
 
if not, I'll have to abandon this idea I suppose...
0
Q: Are there any good online dicerollers for forums still?

DorianI used to use Invisible Castle's roller which was based off of OpenRPG. Worked great, but it looks like the site has been pretty much gutted and is mostly defunct. The roller still works but I'm not sure how well the site would hold up to actually building a good proper campaign anymore. Is th...

 
Well you can actually get two Megas in Digimon world 1
Phoenixmon and H-Kabuterimon
They're just treated as Ultimates in that game
I think if I recall you need to catch Seadramon and get the sea guardians flute and win a tournament on a specific date there to get the evolve item for H-Kabuterimon
 
8:16 AM
@Sandwich mumble.... let me see if I can still find it....
 
Phoenixmon is a no-care-mistakes evolution from Birdramon
Or you can use the evolution item you get from the Battle arena
 
@Dorian When you say Invisible Castle was unique in its features, I think you should describe the unique features.
 
Found.
not the best one, but still a proof of its existence.
 
Oh god
 
@Sandwich Yeah, but in the game, they still aren't megas in the game. :P Though I'm incorrect, megas did exist at the time, but they had just been introduced via the Pendulums. It was a pretty new concept.
 
8:19 AM
Yes
 
@SPArchaeologist this is a mod?
 
I got a Legit Phoenixmon in Digimon world 1
It was the best feeling
 
@Sandwich One time I got an Angemon when I had way too many care mistakes to technically accomplish that, or at least that's what I thought. I was like, "?!?!?!"
 
@trogdor nope, just a flash demo someone made. Nothing too great since it was just intended as a mere demo, but I have to admit that it cam be pretty hypnotic to watch.
 
@Pixie hmm I thought I did...
 
8:22 AM
Well the game states that you can still meet the prerequisites for digivolution if only one of the things you're missing qualifies you and thats the last result
I think for Angemon you need 1000MP and 100 Brains, with 20 weight and 0 care mistakes
 
@Sandwich That makes sense! I was very confused at the time. Like, "This should not be possible???" xD
 
So if you have a Digimon with 1000MP, 100 Brains, and 20 weight, even if you have more than 0 care mistakes you can still get angemon as long as you dont meet ANY other prerequisites for digivolution
Like if you had Patamon for example
And you had Offense 100, speed 100, brains 100, MP 1000 as well as 20 weight
You would get Leomon over Angemon because you met all his prerequisites
 
@Pixie done
 
@Dorian I also think rephrasing the question to something like "Is there a functioning dice roller that has similar functions to the now-defunct Invisible Castle?" might help differentiate it. As you said, the question marked duplicate has Invisible Castle as the chosen answer.
 
But you could even end up with Angemon if you had MP 1000 20 weight and 0 care mistakes as well
 
8:28 AM
@Pixie done
 
Hopefully that helps. Not entirely sure. But I tried, anyway. xD
 
You could even get an ultimate just by meeting their bonus condition
 
well it has 3 reopen votes
idk how many else I need
 
That's good.
@Sandwich I rarely had Digimon live that long. :P
The game was so hard as a child, like so hard. xD
 
Did you die 3 times too much?
 
8:32 AM
@Sandwich At first. I was rather careful after that, but different things can affect your Digimon's natural lifespan, so even then it was still hard.
 
Care mistakes shave an hour or two off easy
 
And I was like... 9, too. xD So I didn't know all the parameters for digivolution. I could tell that different stats caused different digivolutions and care mistakes also were involved, but not specifics.
 
Well uh
At least you probably knew you could poop 16 times and get numemon
 
@BESW my family and I might be about to see The Hobbit As Told By Drunken Legolas In Bar Afterward
 
@Sandwich Sometimes, not knowing the specific stats, I'd get caught in a loop I can refer to only as Numemon Hell. :P
 
8:35 AM
@Pixie At least you where smart enough to play Digimon. I had the bad idea to start playing Disagea.
 
There was actually one fallback that I learned fairly early on
That would always get a digimon
Centarumon
 
@doppelgreener This sounds wonderful.
 
You just need to make sure you had Brains 100 and you could do pretty much anything else
Bonus points if you kept discipline high though
!
Apparently according to the Sony site Digimon World 2 IS on the PSN
Time to go check
 
@Sandwich Is it? They have an entry on their site for it (they index titles), but I didn't think it was actually buyable.
 
I'm checking now
 
8:45 AM
Also, I made a picture that represents the main thing I recall from the Hobbit films.
 
@SPArchaeologist ah, ok then
I was a little excited by that
oh well
 
I know the felling. I actually wished they would have more time to work on Ponyvania.
 
Damn system updates..
"You havent used your PS3 in a month? THREE UPDATES BRHRHRHRHHH"
What in all nine hells of baator is this crap
I was under the impression that my Playstation was a GAME console
Hmmm
River King A Wonderful Journey
Oh! La Pucelle tactics too
Nope, still no Digimon world
Pity
No Digimon Digital Card battle either. Weak.
 
9:11 AM
I love La Pucelle. I need to go back and finish it, though.
 
Demon Priere is sooo amazing
I have two questions for you @Pixie
Whats your favorite pokemon, and whats your favorite Disgaea character?
 
Vulpix (also Clefairy and Gengar), and hmm. I haven't played a lot of Disgaea, actually. I've played most of their other games, but not enough of Disgaea to have encountered many named characters. xD I really like the witch units though.
 
^ see above (fixed, this one is better)
 
Lahaaaahahaharl
I like in D2 when Laharl gets femmed up
 
I can certainly get behind all the burning
 
9:21 AM
I really like Etna though
Sexy beam is probably the best move in any Disgaea game
 
sexy beam? how is a beam sexy?
 
You know... I always hoped some odd astral alignment would a day allow for Matt and Natalie to end up in Disagea.
 
@Sandwich I can only thing of Morning Musume's Sexy Beam.
 
You gotta give me a second
I'm trying to find the gif
 
lol
 
ah I guess that makes sense
make a pose, make the beam pink and put hearts everywhere
 
@SPArchaeologist That was hypnotic.
@doppelgreener I expect ree-pour-taaj.
 
@BESW I know ^_^
 
10:06 AM
I've never seen that character before but she's apparently from Disgaea D2 :o
 
10:47 AM
 
10:57 AM
Infinity Gauntlet is a goldmine for quotes.
 
and so Thanos went to DC world, got Teen Titans Raven back as his new "Faithfull student" and then proceeded to give her only two tickets for the EG3 premiere.

That hadn't the expected result though, since she then decided just to bring her pony doll instead and leaved Robin and the other waiting at the tower.
 
SNOWFLAME FEELS NO PAAAIN
 
11:13 AM
I assume you're also familiar with the Snowflame fan comic.
 
"About (Why?!)" sums it up.
 
11:42 AM
Sorry, I'm not really much into American superhero comics.
I am more into manga
 
I think Snowflame is,.. probably relatively obscure anyway
not unknown by any means, but still
his concept doesn't,........ exactly lead to him being useable in every kind of story, to be sure
 
Nonsense
A guy powered by cocaine is perfect for EVERY COMIC
 
11:58 AM
@NeilD Hi!
 
12:17 PM
@BESW My liege, I return!
 
XD
 
Thanks for notifying me of your return
Now excuse me while I consume this fowl the court chef has cooked
Mmyes quite delectable
This gooseflesh is quite tasty
 
@doppelgreener so how did you like it?
 
@trogdor It was okay. It had some very good bits, and I can totally see where BESW got his idea that the movie is probably the events as told by drunk Legolas in a bar afterwards. (Especially right near the end.) But it didn't really need to be as long as it was.
 
@doppelgreener yeah, I figured
 
12:31 PM
I can see why Jackson decided to make it three movies, but this last one could've been more concise.
 
I watched it with him, and I came to many of the same conclusions around the same time as him
I was not convinced 3 movies were necessary, largely because I felt like it was a cash grab AND because I did not personally see enough effort put into making it "concise" as you say
 
You talking about the hobbit?
 
@BESW I overlooked this!! Not bad
 
certain things were also just ignored or added in when I think it did not need to be approached that way
 
@Sandwich I just saw part 3 with my parents
 
12:33 PM
The Hobbit is a one.. maybe two movie tops
 
still, I did like it, despite that, I just have criticism I hold against the movies
 
The thing with the spiders, the thing with finding the ring and the sword.. tricking Smaug, shooting the black arrow into his one vulnerable point.. that'd be movie one
The stuff with the Arkenstone, the war between the races of man, elf, and dwarf, that should've been movie two
 
@Sandwich the hobbit with just the hobbit bits and minus any LotR prequel bits
 
Well the important part about the Hobbit is that nothing in the hobbit really matters to LotR except actually finding the ring and passing it down to Frodo
 
@Sandwich i dunno, i'd treat the whole of Laketown + the five armies as movie two
The stuff with the Arkenstone and the five armies isn't a whole movie's worth
 
12:37 PM
@doppelgreener you forgot the part where Tom thanks the staff for having kept him out of all of this once again.
 
@SPArchaeologist hahaha
 
I think part of the issue is that the LOTR trilogy movies happened first
 
Well they kind of cheapened Thorin's "revelation" that he's putting material things before his friends by doing it the way they did
They made a hobbit animated movie, I think that one is better
By comparison anyway
They dont need nine hours of movie for a book that I can read in five
 
@Sandwich yes, i feel a lot of things they did cheapened the best parts of the movie :'(
 
because of those trilogy movies coming first, they probably thought they needed to add in way more action and fighting
 
12:38 PM
@Sandwich I was going to flag your post as "offensive against humanity" before you added the lines below.
 
like the fight between Thorin Oakenshield and Azog - that wasn't his fight, that was an accompaniment to Legolas's gravity-defying magical super-acrobatics
 
And that dumbass fight inside that fallen down tower
What was that even
 
and would, itself, have been an awesome capstone, were it not for the fact we had just before that seen a fight much more spectacular and fancy (if less meaningful)
 
anyway the hobbit movies had something good in them. I had so much fun watching their attempts to make Legolas fit in the story
 
Legolas wasn't in the Hobbit :I
 
12:40 PM
yes, meaning the second fight could've been very easily removed
(thorin's i mean)
(ha ha ha I joke, Legolas's)
(chat falls silent due to everyone blowing a blood vessel in their brain from my last messages)
 
nope I just was gone searching for this nugget
^never forget.
 
To be honest I would've been happy if they ended on he killing smaug note and just made it a single movie
They killed the big bad and got the loots
 
I don't know.... It would still have felt something was missing from the movie appearance of the dwarves
Snowhite probably.
 
None of the stuff afterwards was really that important to be honest, it kind of cheapened the goal that they worked so hard to accomplish
 
Oh, also, the Galadriel flip-out was awesome.
 
12:49 PM
@Sandwich And losing Thorin getting his friendship lesson in the third movie?
 
He ded
Thats my rebuttal
He learned his friendship lesson then died
 
@Sandwich in my headcannon he went back and wrote a letter to Galadriel "Dear Princess Galadriel, today I learn that I should listen to my hobbit friend more"
3
 
Well if they had built up the important parts..
Like Bilbo saving them like six times on the way to The Lonely mountain...
 
in the end, I think I can't really articulate how I even feel about the Hobbit Movies
there was way too much awesome, and suck, mixed into the same thing
 
@trogdor we can see the brilliant awesome and the gleaming turd parts latched onto it as tumescent parasites
 
12:54 PM
it is true
the thing is, it is terminally infected with both
and operation will not help
 
I don't see you smiling... I must make you smile. Ok, think I know how I can up your morale now!
 
You know.
When you watch all three hobbit movies back to back.
They kinda feel better?
 
Rejoy: There is the new Star Wars movie coming out this winter
 
@SPArchaeologist You just blew my mind.
Again.
 
yes,.. the new Star Wars movie, the one I am alternately sure will be awesome and horrible
 
12:56 PM
It just never stops happening.
 
but I will not judge it
 
I had heard there was a recut of the trilogy into a single movie (much like Star Wars: the Phantom Edit), I think this might be it, and I'll watch that at some point
 
Do we know who the lead in episode VII is?
Because I sure do not.
 
Well following Canon I would assume that its Luke Skywalker after he re-establishes the Jedi order upon defeating Palpatine
 
I wish it was the black storm trooper.
