45: Integral over C without a C

05:09

66: measure of knowledge

user165474

ok apparently not :P

Wheat Wizard

46: Foreign band here

user165474

Lemme see... Well Integral without C suggests you're not adding +C to the end...

user165474

Integral over C?

user165474

C = Complex Numbers?

user165474

05:10

(sorry, just drafting here)

numbermaniac

that's fine

@WheatWizard contact

Wheat Wizard

which one?

numbermaniac

3: the development of an organism

user165474

Pass 46

Wheat Wizard

05:11

@HyperNeutrino Neither C is the complex numbers but complex numbers are involved

user165474

I see.

Wheat Wizard

I don't think anyone has connected 46

numbermaniac

@0' were you contacting 45 or 46?

awesomepi

Bye!

user165474

12:11

Hello everyone :D

Rubio

Hallo

n_palum

Hullo

G_as_in_Gnome

13:10

Hai :)

user165474

Do we have people to start a game? Or did everyone leave?

G_as_in_Gnome

How many are needed for a "good" game

n_palum

4-5 is usually the best number

user165474

We have 3 right now.

n_palum

And having someone who's a room owner around to pin stuff is usually pretty handy too

G_as_in_Gnome

13:13

We have 4 right now I think?

Assuming you both want to play and Antoine is also willing to play

user165474

I'm willing to play.

user165474

s/willing/wanting

Sconibulus

I'll join in the fun

G_as_in_Gnome

I can never make the weekend scheduled games cause of volunteering :(

Silenus

I'm around to contribute sporadically.

user165474

13:17

We seem to have 4 people now.

G_as_in_Gnome

Okay you want to defend neutrino?

user165474

I defended last night, so if someone else wants to defend, go ahead, but I wouldn't mind

G_as_in_Gnome

I haven't participated in an actual game before (just read the logs on the fun I missed) so I'd rather not defend on my first time

user165474

Alright.

user165474

@Sconibulus @Silenus You want to defend?

user165474

13:20

Silenus said sporadically so maybe not

Sconibulus

I have a (short) meeting in just over half an hour, so I'd rather not

user165474

Alright.

user165474

Then I guess I'll defend.

user165474

Sconibulus

4: yep

n_palum

Things that'll help: Number you clues, when you contact, say the number as well, don't overwhelm the defender with clues, and star other people's clues that have not been guessed so they are on the board to the right (makes it easier to track)

Sconibulus

G_as_in_Gnome

do old clues still count even after the new letters have been added?

n_palum

If they are not busted @G_as_in_Gnome

dcfyj

13:27

9's out :P

user165474

If the word still starts with the same letters, yes.

Sconibulus

G_as_in_Gnome

okay yeah 9's out :')

dcfyj

Silenus

13:27

Obsolete clues should be announced by the poser.

But 2 should stand no?

G_as_in_Gnome

yeah 2 stands

9 is out, unstar it :)

n_palum

Contact 2 if other's haven't but I assume they have

Silenus

Silenus

7: packing

user165474

Pass 2. :(

n_palum

If you don't know 2, and give up, you need to pass (it's generally a trend that if things are contacted for a while, you try to get them and pass if you cannot so that the game moves along)

dcfyj

13:34

I don't recall hearing the word arboreal before

n_palum

He only has to tell you if it's it or not, unless it's like a difference of plural or not

user165474

Alright.

user165474

Pass 9.

dcfyj

@Sconibulus you're up

Sconibulus

user165474

user165474

user165474

as my first guess

user165474

rip

dcfyj

why didn't you?

user165474

13:42

I thought it would be too similar to Arbitrator but actually, that's a good question, why didn't i

dcfyj

lol

user165474

rip :P

G_as_in_Gnome

lol

user165474

Rule of Thumb: Always guess if you can.

dcfyj

yup

user165474

13:42

:P

dcfyj

defending is hard though

n_palum

5 was ARBITER yes

G_as_in_Gnome

^

dcfyj

especially when you have 7+ people waiting on you

user165474

I see.

G_as_in_Gnome

neutrino can you pass/guess on 7 right before I go :)

n_palum

13:46

Just guess 3 @G_as_in_Gnome

dcfyj

3 is pending

user165474

I passed 3

G_as_in_Gnome

i think silenus got it before me

dcfyj

doesn't matter, he can go after you

Silenus

Is 7 still alive?

dcfyj

I'm pretty sure 7 is, but he may have left

user165474

@G_as_in_Gnome Is 7 still alive?

Sconibulus

13:50

oh crap... what's that word...

user165474

You win :D Congrats

dcfyj

That was your word I take it

Sconibulus

I only half remember it

user165474

Yes.

dcfyj

I'm guessing 7 was arbitrary

user165474

13:53

Hm.

user165474

Maybe.

user165474

Anyway, I have to go finish up some schoolwork. See you all later! :D

n_palum

Is basic really a def for Arbitrary

Sconibulus

I can do a defense in about ten minutes, but I have a meeting in about now

if someone else wants to start, feel free

or if we're done for now, that's ok too

G_as_in_Gnome

7 was arbitrary yes

had to go brush my teeth
