@FEichinger Wow, 7 out 9 messages on the star list are images. It is a slow star week.

@Yuki Well, with you playing imgur feed bot, I can see how that would happen.

tomorrow is karneval

yeay

@FEichinger Hey, I can't star my own messages. Not my fault.

Carnival in Germany, Switzerland and Austria

There is a huge variety of customs and traditions associated with Carnival celebrations in the German-speaking countries of Germany, Switzerland and Austria. They can vary considerably from country to country, but also from one smaller region to another. This is already reflected in the various names given to these festivities occurring before Lent. Names In parts of East and South Germany, as well as in Austria, the carnival is called Fasching. In Franconia and the southwest-parts as well as some other parts of Germany, the carnival is called Fastnacht or Fasnet; in Switzerland, Fasna...

4:10 PM

@FEichinger Nobody says "fire" in allcaps without extending the "I". If they do, they're wrong and should feel wrong.

@Yuki I DON'T CAAAARE.

I need to test my highlighting script.

@FEichinger There is no script, there is only FIRE!

@Yuki No, there very much is a script.

And it's slowly turning into something useful.

@FEichinger What, are you using it to keep track of all the people kalina burns?

4:15 PM

@Yuki That, and people talking about me without actually pinging me, and posts about banished, and posts about sescripts ... Pretty much anything I might find interesting but wouldn't normally get notified of.

Oh, I missed the start of TTP Gen 2

Democracy is broken beyond repair right now

> Democracy mode is automatically selected at the start of every hour.

ugh

cc @FEichinger

4:19 PM

No, it's not exactly like that

Every hour, democracy starts. Then as soon as a single round of votes has anarchy as the leading option, democracy ends.

Given that the voting system is broken, the most democracy has resisted is 4 minutes.

Private Pansy

And there's no way of getting democracy back until the next hour?

No way.

@FEichinger Butbutbutbut how are we going to talk about you behind your back now?

@PrivatePansy Perhaps. If it helps, by the point the symptoms are visible, it's too late.

@Yuki By pushing the messages out of the visible transcript, making it impossible for me to find (right now).

I will still get the count, but I can't link directly to the messages (yet).

I like that TPP is showing clearly the limits of current-age democracy voting systems, one hour at a time

4:56 PM

So long as we keep insisting that the winner of an election with 15 votes for a9, 8 votes for a and 20 votes for anarchy is won by "anarchy", we'll keep having shitty democratic systems where everybody wins and the losers are elected.

(a "won" because more people wanted a-something than anarchy.) (a9 won because of the people who wanted a - the most popular course of action - most people wanted a9; it then proceeds to lament against voters of a because they "wasted" their votes and let anarchy get elected.) (anarchy "won" because it's the single candidate with the most votes.)

@OrigamiRobot i dont think i've tasted that one, have you?

user58869

must be something good to get mentioned in a movie

6:01 PM

@FEichinger Oh, now it's a simple democracy vote to switch back to Anarchy. I like it.

user58869

come quietly or there will be trouble

@OrigamiRobot In the interest of fairness a single command should switch it back to democracy too.

@RonanForman Eh, I think the creator did it this way so everybody focuses on inputting actual commands.

@RonanForman But @FEichinger doesn't like democracy!

6:06 PM

Instead of "anarchy" or "democracy" spam.

Maybe not fairness, but if anarchy is chosen my vote, democracy should be chosen by anarchy.

@RonanForman Fairness isn't the point of the current implementation, I believe.

The idea is that if they get stuck, democracy rolls around on its appointed hour.

If it's needed to get past a certain part, then the commands (left, right, up, down, etc.) will outnumber the votes for "anarchy" and they'll proceed through whatever is stopping progress.

I'd prefer all anarchy all the time, but this method is far better than the previous.

If it's not needed, then anarchy will come back and they keep going.

The way things work right now, it cuts down on unnecessary "anarchy" and "democracy" spam in the Twitch chat, which is great.

It's not "fair", but it's definitely better.

This way if Democracy isn't absolutely required, it will like go back to Anarchy immediately.

6:09 PM

Fairness isn't always the best option. If everything were fair, government would be run by a direct democracy.

And we know how that went with Athens.

user58869

@Alex Dude, what have we said about posting random pictures and videos?

user58869

@Frank we? who exactly are you claiming to represent, frank?

@Alex The community at large.

Franks everywhere.

6:18 PM

Since most everyone has ignored you.

user58869

@Frank i will say no more

user58869

@Frank i wiill not feed the troll

@Alex That's a novel interpretation.

On that note, I'm wondering how to implement a notes thing for users.

Because I ignored @Alex at one point, forgot why, took him off ignore, and now I have him ignored again.

@Yuki Simple: trust that you had done so for a good reason.

NEVER RETHINK DECISIONS! THAT WAY LIES HUBRIS!

FAE

6:21 PM

Evening, all.

Dear Future @Yuki, You did this for a reason. Love Past @Yuki.

FAE

@Frank This reminds me of the Notes feature CoH implemented later on. So, so handy.

@FAE Very much so.

Good 12:21 PM Central Standard Time, @FAE.

Private notes could come in so handy.

6:22 PM

@Frank "1 star, was a jerk on on the Synapse run"

@Frank Yeah, but @GnomeSlice is a lot better now compared to when I first got on the Bridge.

If I followed that policy, he'd still be on ignore.

@Yuki Hence why I added in the hyperbole afterwards.

I might try to write a private notes thing after this week.

It'll give me something constructive to do.

user58869

@Alex Seriously, dude. Stop posting random crap. We've said it I don't know how many times.

user58869

6:28 PM

@Frank frank, i do not wish to recieve message from you.

user58869

@Alex Simple way to fix that. Doesn't mean I can't flag your random crap.

Because when you get right down to it, it's spam.

They seem to be doing a lot worse in this game.

@Alex I have asked you before in a polite way to stop.

Oh, they don't have any badges yet. That's why their other pokemon are such low level.

6:38 PM

@Yuki You ignored me?

Listen pal, I've been here a lot longer than you...

@GnomeSlice It was for like two days.

@Yuki =[

@GnomeSlice I'm not sure what that has to do with anything.

@Unionhawk I already put on pants to go to the grocery store and get a rotisserie chicken.

The only problem is transferring that perfectly poached egg from the pot to the bowl.

What's on top in the pot is rarely on top when it gets moved to the bowl.

Which is sad.

Being rude isn't going to get you anywhere.

@GnomeSlice It's also an on-topic itg, which is always going to draw some votes from people checking to make sure it's on-topic

user58869

@GnomeSlice no, this person is quite beligerent

7:27 PM

@GnomeSlice I know, but it's a sad truth, people will only vote for things they know about, and most people don't take the time to learn about all the options. (I count myself in that group.)

@Alex I don't think that means what you think it means.

user58869

Belligerent

A belligerent (lat. bellum gerere, "to wage war") is an individual, group, country or other entity which acts in a hostile manner, such as engaging in combat. Belligerent comes from Latin, literally meaning "one who wages war". Unlike the colloquial use of belligerent to mean aggressive, its formal use does not necessarily imply that the belligerent country is an aggressor. In times of war, belligerent countries can be contrasted with neutral countries and non-belligerents. However, the application of the laws of war to neutral countries and the responsibilities of belligerents are not a...

@Alex Getting banned is not as fun as it sounds. I was banned for 6 months. Not fun.

user15026

@alex I didn't even mention bans. Chill. Just figured advice from a mod who is a usual here might not go amiss

I mentioned it, and I only said you're on the road. I have neither the will nor the power to actually carry out that, and I never said how far down the road you were (since I have not the power to know that either)

Granted, that's a dummy shark, but still.
