I need a better card base for the bookmark. It's still a little too flimsy.

Need to find some thin stiff cardboard

badp

@YiJiang'sEvilClone It's better with borders.

@YiJiang'sEvilClone would it help if you embiggened her hair?

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

No, I chose a poor base for the bookmark. Should've got out and found a real piece of card instead of this piece of stiff art paper

badp

maybe superglue a ruler (fragment) on the back

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

I don't think that's going to help

badp

while you run the risk of the bookmark bending around the ruler, it'd certainly help with the rigidity

plus... it'll have an inbuilt ruler (fragment)!

to measure (fragments of) distances!

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

12:12 AM

I really should be using a penknife instead of scissors for this

Her hair is a nightmare to cut around

badp

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

Borrow one?

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

Q: How much gold do champion kills give on Proving Grounds?

There is a reduction in gold per champion kill on Proving Grounds. I play a lot of it, but never really had the time to watch for the gold gain because, unsurprisingly, I'm usually in combat when I get kills. So how much gold does a kill get you, including when the target has a kill/death streak?

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

Uh huh

Ben Brocka

1:42 AM

@OrigamiRobot I don't notice it with B0re. Or rather I just fired it off immediately before taking a shot for bonus damage

OrigamiRobot

@BenBrocka It doesn't block the actual shot, it's visually distracting.

Ben Brocka

have no idea how much bonus damage it does. I didn't even know it did until I saw someone mention it on here...or is that only for melee?

OrigamiRobot

Up to 200% increased Gun Damage (minimum bonus: +40%)
Up to 250% increased Gun Critical Damage
Up to 650% increased Melee Damage (minimum bonus: +230%).

Ben Brocka

Does waiting longer or shorter improve damage with that?

OrigamiRobot

Also, apparently it does block shots.

@BenBrocka Waiting increases it.

Ben Brocka

1:46 AM

Really? I didn't notice that. Though Bore might pierce anyway or something

OrigamiRobot

Yea, I never use it anyway.

Only accidentally when trying to throw a grenade.

Ben Brocka

I use it all the time when reviving people. Though it doesn't help all too much

I'd use it more if I didn't have to break a run to drop it

Or if I could move faster, like Phasewalk

OrigamiRobot

I'd use it more if it didn't make that stupid clone.

Ben Brocka

The clone is pretty dumb

OrigamiRobot

It ruins the ability when sniping.

OrigamiRobot

1:58 AM

@Ktash any idea when this marathon is happening? Or even how long it is going to last?

Ktash

@OrigamiRobot A weekend. As for when, not yet. Probably not for a while still (a lot more planning left to do)

once we get some people signed up, I'll have everyone email me, and we can figure out something that works for as many people as possible

Ben Brocka

On Twitch I take it? All on one channel or what?

Ktash

On Twitch, yeah. Hopefully in a single channel/stream, yes

OrigamiRobot

I'd be fine with streaming, but I have no idea how to do any of that.

Ktash

Feb 13 at 2:59, by Ktash

something like that

and I'll be figuring out streaming and how it will all work before we kick things off

probably sooner rather than later

and we'll hopefully have a practice run

OrigamiRobot

2:02 AM

Are we going to run one game at a time?

Ktash

not a whole weekend, but just doing some streaming and hand-offs and such

@OrigamiRobot At certain times, maybe 2. Once we get goals, I'll have people help me get timeframes for things and try and map out a basic schedule (optimistic and worst case)

Ben Brocka

Was thinking if we do BL2 we might be able to fit a full playthrough in but it might require tagging people in/out if it's an actual 24/something hr stream. And that can get weird if the host isn't up to current main quest progress

OrigamiRobot

For Terraria, the walkthrough gives a good guide for structuring goals wiki.terrariaonline.com/Guide:Walkthrough

Ben Brocka

@Ktash so just everyone in all games talking over Mumble then?

OrigamiRobot

I think it would be fun to have two Terraria games racing each other.

Ben Brocka

2:05 AM

That'd be cool

Races could work with Portal 2 too, especially for co op

Ktash

@OrigamiRobot Suggest it as some goals on the meta :)

@BenBrocka That was my thoughts. Why I suggested it

tried to come up with some fun goals for the teams too for donation levels

@BenBrocka Probably yeah

something like that

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

@AshleyNunn So yeah, if you scroll up a bit you can see I actually made the squashed Twilight bookmark

Ktash

@BenBrocka something like that will probably require some planning if it is too long for 1 person

it may come down to, if we can, we have a set of people do it in one location... if possible

Ben Brocka

@Ktash was thinking co op for BL2 also

I have no idea how long a "speed run" playthrough takes though

consensus is like 20 hours for normal playthroughs, but if you know what you're doing and skip some dialog it should be a fair bit shorter. Not sure how much though

Ktash

@BenBrocka maybe still a while

OrigamiRobot

2:09 AM

On the other hand, I'm conflicted about each goal being to progress to the next section of the game.

Ben Brocka

4 hours seems doable

does that run require glitches/tricky shit or do you know?

Ktash

I have no idea

never played the game

OrigamiRobot

"We can't fight the Eye of Cthulhu until you guys donate another $50."

Ben Brocka

Oh he's "speed running" it with a level 50 doing the real work...

Ktash

@OrigamiRobot I'd like to avoid main story quests and such. Have those be assumed and have the goals be extra things

Ben Brocka

2:11 AM

Maybe a DLC run of BL2 would be better

those are beatable inside a few hours

Me jin and jared (I think) beat DLC1 on launch day,,,

FAE

@Ktash It's not like... story-based really, so that metric is hard to apply to Terraria.

Fluttershy

@Ktash There's no like... Avoiding main story stuff in Terraria. Mostly because th... what @FAE said. <_<

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

Uh, Terraria has a story?

OrigamiRobot

@FAE Still there is some sequence of progression to the game.

FAE

Terraria is more similar to Minecraft than like, Borderlands 2 or Portal 2.

Ktash

2:12 AM

Of the games we're marathoning, I've only played SC2 and Portal 2, so I'll be looking to you all to help get goals and such figured out

Ben Brocka

Goals could be nice to have/optional stuff

I don't think most bosses are really needed to progress except the dungeon boss

and any introduced in v1.1 I guess, not aware of those at all

OrigamiRobot

Maybe for Terraria, each goal should allow us to upgrade our armor or something like that.

FAE

@OrigamiRobot Yeah, but you can't like, "avoid story stuff" like Ktash said really.

Fluttershy

@BenBrocka Wall of Flesh is pretty important.

As important as wearing the Holy Goggles when fighting Richter in SotN.

FAE

Chat's being dodgy for me.

Ktash

2:14 AM

@OrigamiRobot I was sort of thinking goals could be used to make things harder for us, or make us progress further, instead of making things easier

OrigamiRobot

@FAE What I was saying was having progression milestones as goals doesn't seem like the best approach to me.

Ktash

so maybe the opposite approach is better

FAE

@OrigamiRobot Yeah, I can see that.

Fluttershy

@BenBrocka For Borderlands 2 we could have like... Story missions broken down into goal tiers with side missions scattered in between. So do a story mission, do a bunch of side missions, do a story mission, etc. Maybe?

OrigamiRobot

The moment you are ready to progress, but the donation for that goal hasn't been met, you're dead in the water.

Ktash

2:16 AM

@OrigamiRobot Yeah, that's the dangerous part. That's why, with the variety of games, I feel it will be better to assume we are doing some things by default

We have a default set of tasks, and then donation tiers add to our list of things we need to do

OrigamiRobot

Goals should be restrictions on how we play the games.

Ktash

@OrigamiRobot Also a good way to think of goals :)

OrigamiRobot

Like each goal for Diablo could be to play with one less piece of equipment.

Now, I don't know how realistic it is, but that's just an example.

FAE

If anything can get people to donate money, it's watching other people suffer.

OrigamiRobot

2:20 AM

Exactly.

Ktash

@OrigamiRobot Heh, except Diablo didn't make the cut ;)

Ben Brocka

@Fluttershy Just concerned that would get too long. Including sidequests would almost certainly push time over 20 hours, at least in the main game. With the DLCs we could probably do all 3, possibly 100% (possibly not counting raid bosses unless it's a level 50 run)

OrigamiRobot

@Ktash Still a valid example.

@OrigamiRobot Baby steps, man. Baby steps.

@OrigamiRobot One of the many things for planning. I'm going to have to look into paypal's API and see what others do

Ben Brocka

Oh right paypal might work

Ktash

That'll come in with site design, which hasn't quite hit planning yet lol

@BenBrocka Paypal is what Child's Play uses

Ben Brocka

I've seen lots of donation counter widgets around, I'm sure there's something

OrigamiRobot

@Fluttershy It is pretty important.

Ktash

I know it's possible already, since Mario Marathon does it

Fluttershy

2:23 AM

@OrigamiRobot Right. But this is still just the first stage of things.

Ktash

just need to take the time to figure out how

Ben Brocka

@Ktash Probably easy enough to get current amount paid from the API, show a bar showing the donations + goals?

OrigamiRobot

@Fluttershy It's crucial to the entire system.

Ktash

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking

alright, I need to go pick up my food... bbl

Ben Brocka

Should I just sign up for one game or indicate all which I might be interested in?

Ktash

2:28 AM

@BenBrocka Either or. If you put your name in for multiple, we can be a bit more flexible with how we plan out with people to fill in the gaps

and if we have too much, we can figure out how we can manage multiple streams or something. But that's a problem I'd love to have haha

Retrosaur

@BenBrocka woulud this include Terra and Verm?

Because Verm is only a luck spawn

and Terra is ridiculously hard in TVHM, unless your using a glitch

Ben Brocka

Vermi wouldn't be too hard if he's still as common when they did that Norfleet event...not sure how hard he is to spawn otherwise

Retrosaur

I've tried it yesterday, it takes forever.

Literally, it takes FOREVER to get one Verm to spawn

It's ridiculously sad, but it took forever. My party had a shit ton of Ultimate Badass Varkids, but no Verms at all

Ben Brocka

3:14 AM

that's a shame. When they made Vermi common it was actually pretty fun.

Retrosaur

And I've been pratically dying to see some sort of Legendary Soldier. I'll never get one T>T

Also, ensure if they do BL2 marathon events

nobody can abuse evilmashers

because that thing completely wrecks the game

Ben Brocka

If we're starting a playthrough we probably wouldn't ever get one anyway, sidequests take too long. But yeah, no exploits seems reasonable

Tim Stone

Retrosaur

@TimStone PFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

@BenBrocka Not necessarily, you can get the quest for the Evil Smasher before you actually have to go through Sawtooth Cauldron for the main quest.
