John

16:05

Okay...now I'm eating candy...

reads FAQ

Patience....

Ullallulloo

@John Another life ruined.

John

@Ullallulloo I NO RITE

Ullallulloo

I'm up to 430,000 pieces of candy eaten with no end in sight.

John

Aaaand now I have a lollipop.

Blem

I'm making Invulnerability potion from my candy atm

John

16:08

Reading these chat logs, this sounds an awful lot like Nethack but with candy.

I was never good at nethack.

So, do I buy lollipops every chance I get, or should I stock up on more candy?

Ullallulloo

@John uh...candy for now, I guess.

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

@John Not really

Ben Brocka

once you plant enough lollipops they'll become self sustaining

get a couple of swords first

Ullallulloo

@BenBrocka He can't do that yet.

John

@BenBrocka I see nothing even remotely related to swords.

Ben Brocka

16:10

wait longer

John

waits Fun game!

Blem

summoning sword should be the best, but i got a level 5 fire sword

Wipqozn

Yes. Get a few swords first (need a bit of candy), then start putting money towards lolipops.

Ben Brocka

I have a life sword :/ it's certainly not helping against the dragon

Ullallulloo

@Blem Does stuff die from that?

@BenBrocka Only fire or a really high life helps against dragon.

John

16:11

Oooh a wooden sword.

Do I want one?

I keep misreading it as "candles" and was like, "@Wipqozn's eating wax?" >.>

Ben Brocka

get the sword

you'l suddenly see more of the game

John

Sword get!

OOH BUTTONS

And now I can finally see what I'm working toward :D

200 more candies to go. ._.

I'm...in the pink?

Ronan Forman

@John Can you not go questing?

John

@RonanForman I can, but I feel like I should get the copper sword first

Ronan Forman

@John Note the forest is peaceful./

John

16:14

Do I still get candy while I quest?

Ullallulloo

@John yes

John

@RonanForman Oh. Right.

@Ullallulloo Yay

Blem

@Wipqozn theres even a potion named after you in the game!

Ben Brocka

yesss dragon dead

Wipqozn

@Blem I saw that.

Ben Brocka

16:14

but I didn't get the stupid amulet that run

John

I'm...a lumberjack?

Ben Brocka

is the amulet only in the keep?

Ullallulloo

@BenBrocka Yes, just from the walled-in zombie warrior.

badp

Nice. @GnomeSlice apparently hit the jackpot

Ben Brocka

do I want to get it before Hell?

John

16:15

The lollipop farm!

Marco Ceppi

@RonanForman There's no script, it's a service

badp

11k views on the relevant question

Blem

@John plant lollipops till you get 100/s

Ronan Forman

@MarcoCeppi Okay, where do I start it?

John

@badp Nice! :D

@Blem 100/s? That sounds like a lot.

plants

Marco Ceppi

16:16

@RonanForman sudo service mumble-server restart

Blem

@John think it is about 20k you need to plant

John

@Blem Yeah...I just planted my 3... "9 a day, seriously?"

Blem

it goes up fast

Ullallulloo

@John Note: they come all at one time, not spread out over the time period.

Blem

buy 10 at a time and plant them all

John

16:17

@Ullallulloo I can't decide if I like that or not.

@Blem Okay... waits for candy

Ullallulloo

@John Probably not.

Ronan Forman

@MarcoCeppi I don't know the sudo password.

Marco Ceppi

@RonanForman what account do you log in with?

John

Aw, I died.

Ronan Forman

@MarcoCeppi go1

Marco Ceppi

16:18

That account might not have sudo access

Ronan Forman

@John Where?

John

@RonanForman The goblin mountain.

I had the copper sword and everything.

Marco Ceppi

@RonanForman try now

Fluttershy

@John I couldn't beat Mount Goblin until I had an iron sword and some more health.

John

@Fluttershy I was within 10 hp of the last goblin.... ;_;

Marco Ceppi

16:20

Oh you guys playing that candies game?

Ronan Forman

@MarcoCeppi I didn't ask me for a password, so I assume it worke.d

Marco Ceppi

@RonanForman yeah

John

@MarcoCeppi Ayep!

Ronan Forman

@MarcoCeppi help us!

Marco Ceppi

@John @RonanForman there's an easy way to beat it

John

16:20

@MarcoCeppi Oh?

Ben Brocka

er wat

so in Hell do I just avoid everything or what?

Ullallulloo

@BenBrocka yes

Marco Ceppi

Technically, if you want to "cheat"

Ullallulloo

untill ghosts; then charge through

John

Wait, will I get lollipops and candies while my game is closed?

Fluttershy

16:21

Ghosts hurt like hell.

John

Or do I have to leave this tab open forever if I want any lollipops?

Fluttershy

@John Closed, no.

Ronan Forman

@John No it's a local thing

Ben Brocka

ghosts can't kill you though

John

Bummer

Ullallulloo

16:21

minimized, very slowly.

Fluttershy

But you can leave the tab open and just do other things. You don't have to stay focused on the tab.

John

@Fluttershy Right

Ronan Forman

@John Wait until you get to a lp/min.

Ben Brocka

@John yes, but you can just save the game and play later if you need to turn it off

John

@RonanForman drools

@BenBrocka Good. I wouldn't be happy if I lost all my candy.

Ben Brocka

16:22

you can even make a bookmark to load your save game, it's pretty cool

Marco Ceppi

@John if you have chrome or firefox, and open the console just type this: javascript:(function(){candies.nbrOwned=lollipops.nbrOwned=9001})()

But that's if you're like me and you're impatient

Ben Brocka

is there any special loot in the castle stairs?

Ullallulloo

@MarcoCeppi noooo

Person who consumes pumpkins, etc.

John

@MarcoCeppi Haha points for poking around, but I'd rather not cheat.

Not yet, anyway >.>

Marco Ceppi

:)

Ronan Forman

16:23

@John Click on the merchant's hat.

John

...maybe I'll use that if I accidentally lose all my stuff... >.>

Marco Ceppi

The source of the game is really interesting and fun to read

Ben Brocka

what's the amulet do?

John

@RonanForman Wait, did he just give me 100 candies?

Awesome!

Ullallulloo

@BenBrocka Triple candy production.

Ben Brocka

16:24

even on top of the sorceress' bonuses?!

Ullallulloo

@BenBrocka yes

I'm at 39/sec

John

reads the source Whoa, I can get inside the dev's computer?

And make bugs?! My favorite thing to do.

I feel like I just need to forget about the tab and come back when I have a few thousand candies...

badp

What's with you guys and the candies? Are explosions involved?

Is it ponies? Is it murder?

John

I don't know....the candies are just so...alluring...

Ullallulloo

@badp Yes, yes, and yes.

Possibly all at the same time.

Fluttershy

16:28

63 candies per second.

badp

Well I made the page cry so I guess I won

SaintWacko

@John I just left my computer running for... ah...17 hours

Blem

SaintWacko

6 million lollipops

badp

It won't cry any more than (;_;) ._.

That's shameful.

I'm setting up (another) modded install of KSP, and I'm including both the B9 Aerospace pack and the Firespitter airplane parts pack. However, they both use Firespitter.dll in order for some of the internal views to have functional components. Unfortunately, the DLLs are different between the tw...

Q: How do I connect multiple machines to an energy bridge?

I've got an energy bridge converting my EU power to MJ and when I put a machine that runs on MJ directly next to the BC producer, it works.

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

It's so cute!

kalina

oh dear, I'm in trouble

SaintWacko

@kalina Oh?

kalina

tonight's entertainment appears to be me + 3 friends playing "drinking games"

which appears to be a combination of drinking and games

I have been told I have to take part

apparently the particular combination being used is shots of tequila and xcom enemy unknown ironman classic

Fluttershy

16:35

I made 9 Invulnerability potions and 100 Superman potions at one time...

kalina

each party member you lose results in 2 shots

Ullallulloo

@Fluttershy whyyyyyy??

Superman potions don't even do anythingggg.

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

And of course the more you drink the more impaired your judgement is, the more party member you lose

kalina

yes

SaintWacko

@kalina holy shit

Oh, wait

Just classic?

Nevermind

Fluttershy

16:37

@Ullallulloo I didn't mean to! I just meant to make the invulnerability potions! But since I used 18000 candies, it gave me 9 invuln pots and 100 superman potions. >_>

kalina

well yes the intention is not for the night to be over in the first hour

fredley

Tonight's forecast: Equal parts hilarity and misery. High chance of embarrassment and regret.

2

kalina

@fredley not very equal parts

I won't be able to stand within the first hour

fredley

@kalina It's just a forecast

Ullallulloo

@fredley Is the key boss the final one?

fredley

16:38

@Ullallulloo Key boss?

@kalina Looking forward to it

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

►

fredley

In a non-creepy way

but in a slightly creepy way

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

Runescape 3. The most interesting part is the engine. It's supposedly created using HTML5 with WebGL for the 3D

Fluttershy

I beat hell! =D

Ullallulloo

@fredley Yeah, where you need a key.

Right after the turtle level.

fredley

16:39

Oh, yes

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

Which would probably make this the first mass market commercial game to try something like this

fredley

The boss is called DEV

Ullallulloo

@fredley I know, but I didn't want to give hints to others. :P

fredley

@Ullallulloo Given the naming conventions in this game, it could easily be Desirable Equine Video

kalina

I probably won't be on chat @fredley

fredley

16:40

@kalina D:

kalina

I will save you the opportunity of starring everything I say

Wipqozn

How long should I mix for the invulnerability potion ?

Ullallulloo

@fredley I guess. :P

fredley

Promise to come on after your games, but still while drunk?

Ullallulloo

@Wipqozn 'Til your arms hurt.

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

16:41

@Wipqozn One minute

fredley

@Wipqozn Until your arms hurt

@kalina I'll be good, I promise

SaintWacko

@YiJiang'sEvilClone Holy shit I may have to start playing Runescape again

I have a level 116

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

The Japanese have their own MLP dub now. And the result is glorious

fredley

@kalina I take it you saw this

@YiJiang'sEvilClone My Little Pokemon?

Fluttershy

I killed myself! But Myself killed me too! =(

fredley

16:42

I can't believe that's not already a thing

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

@fredley Oh, that has been done waaay before the dub came out

Ullallulloo

@Fluttershy You must become better than you can be.

fredley

@YiJiang'sEvilClone Yeah. It's a bit obvious

Fluttershy

@Ullallulloo I have surpassed myself.

Ullallulloo

@Fluttershy Then how'd you die?

I have no idea how that fight works.

Fluttershy

16:43

@Ullallulloo Oh, no, I mean after I died, and went and surpassed myself.

fredley

@Ullallulloo You win if you surpass yourself

Ullallulloo

@Fluttershy oh

fredley

Surpassing yourself requires surpassing 10 thousand lollipops, and giving them to an old woman in a hut.

This game is odd

SaintWacko

I wish I could unequip my seven league boots

Makes it a lot more difficult

fredley

@SaintWacko Become a Turtle!

SaintWacko

16:45

@fredley What?

I'm on Castle Stairs

Stupid ghosts

Fluttershy

Does beating myself actually give me anything? Or does it just unlock the next area?

fredley

@SaintWacko Oh. You can't become a turtle yet :(

@SaintWacko Ghosts are the worst.

Ullallulloo

@Fluttershy Just next area.

No money or anything.

@SaintWacko Summon imps.

Fluttershy

Dang.

SaintWacko

@fredley I just summoned a couple imps

Finished it easily

fredley

16:46

@SaintWacko Damn you summoners with your summoning

SaintWacko

@fredley I don't have a summoner sword

Just used scrolls

Ullallulloo

@fredley Pssh, if he was a summoner, he'd be smashing thing with golems by now.

fredley

I bought all the lollipops!

SaintWacko

@Ullallulloo Instead i have a level 7 sword of flames

Fluttershy

Alright. So I just got killed in one hit. <_< Time to make more invulnerability potions.

Ullallulloo

16:48

@Fluttershy yeeeppppp

That level takes a loootttt.

Also, teleport scrolls won't suffice.

Yi Jiang's Evil Clone

@Fluttershy If you got killed in one hit invulnerability potions probably won't be enough

Ullallulloo

It stinks to find that out after using 6 invuln pots.

Fluttershy

I have seeds, scrolls, and potions.

Ben Brocka

@Ullallulloo two will work

if you mean the dragon level

Ullallulloo

@BenBrocka I was reaching him before my recharge got up.

fredley

16:49

@BenBrocka keep

Ullallulloo

@BenBrocka No.

@Fluttershy okay, then that's good if you use it good.

He could kill me in one hit, so play it safe.

Ben Brocka

should I try and get more than 200 hp?

SaintWacko

Anyone made a Seed yet?

Fluttershy

I have like 550 hp.

2 mins ago, by Fluttershy

I have seeds, scrolls, and potions.

John

Silver sword, or 20 more lollipops? >.>

SaintWacko

16:51

@Fluttershy What do they do?

fredley

@John Lollipops

Always lollipops

Ben Brocka

k, now IO have 365 then

John

@fredley Mhmkay.

Ben Brocka

demons were killing me too fast

Fluttershy

@SaintWacko They grow a tree in front of you that has like 700 health.

Ben Brocka

16:52

@fredley once you start getting lollipops per min you can stop buying them thoguh

fredley

@BenBrocka Yeah.

Ullallulloo

@John Sword. Lollipops will grow themselves.

Oh, right. Lollipops if you're not up to min or sec yet.

fredley

@Ullallulloo But bootstrapping your lollipop farm early on is important

John

@Ullallulloo I just bought the lollipops >.>

Oh well, I can always wait another 10 minutes :P

Yeah, I'm at 48/h

Ben Brocka

can I not brew berserk potions?

Fluttershy

16:55

Newp.

SaintWacko

@Fluttershy Oh. Hm

Ben Brocka

lame

Fluttershy

@SaintWacko They're pretty much necessary for the castle keep.

SaintWacko

@Fluttershy Why?

Wipqozn

Dragon dead.

kalina

16:56

@fredley awesome

Wipqozn

I also found a unicorn horn.

John

1 lp/min!

fredley

@kalina Protip: Don't play EVE

Fluttershy

@SaintWacko Teleport from dragon when invulnerability potion wears off, plant a tree in front of you to let your scroll and potion timer run down, rinse and repeat.

SaintWacko

@Fluttershy Hm

Ullallulloo

16:57

@Fluttershy or just use a second scroll.

Ben Brocka

@Wipqozn where?

Fluttershy

@John It's gonna grow pretty fast from there.

SaintWacko

Dragon is too strong to just fight normally?

Powerlord

So, the new Shadowgate soundtrack is on bandcamp.

John

@Fluttershy :D

Wipqozn

16:57

@BenBrocka In the keep.

Powerlord

@SaintWacko Yup.

Fluttershy

@SaintWacko Yes.

Ben Brocka

@SaintWacko certainly

Ullallulloo

@SaintWacko Yep, slaughters me in seconds.

SaintWacko

@Ullallulloo Wow

Powerlord

16:57

I got annoyed at the level after Castle Keep, though.

Which made me stop playing

Wipqozn

@Powerlord Yeah, the level afterwards looks like hell.

Ben Brocka

what drops the horn?

Fluttershy

@Wipqozn Ba dum tsh...

@BenBrocka Which?

Ullallulloo

@BenBrocka Unicorn or cow?

Wipqozn

@BenBrocka The Unicorn horns? Unicorns.

Ben Brocka

16:58

I have neither

oh nvm got one

Ullallulloo

@BenBrocka The unicorn horn is dropped by unicorns, and the cow king horn is dropped by the cow king.

Powerlord

The Amulet is also dropped in the keep.

Wipqozn

I got that on my first run through, but died. What does it do?

John

Does throwing them on the ground do anything?

Ullallulloo

@Wipqozn Triples your candies' production.
