Best quotes from IRC, Mumble and Discord

[ccexplore]

There has often been much chatter on IRC lately such that on some days, it can be almost impossible to try to skim the channel logs usefully.  And then once in a while, the gods smile and you end up with this on the very top of the log for the day http://www.lemmingsforums.com/Smileys/lemmings/winktounge.gif" alt=";P" title="Wink-Tongue" class="smiley" />:

http://www.nordicbots.com/?id=73&net=quakenet&cid=81576&year=2014&month=4&day=5" class="bbc_link" target="_blank">http://www.nordicbots.com/?id=73&net=quakenet&cid=81576&year=2014&month=4&day=5

[00:00:46] <Clam> did it rub you the right way 

==========

And of course, no channel browsing is complete without checking out http://www.nordicbots.com/?id=66&net=quakenet&channel=lix" class="bbc_link" target="_blank">the latest channel statistics, something I actually haven't done in a long while.  Looks like relative newcomer NaOH has already made quite a reputation there http://www.lemmingsforums.com/Smileys/lemmings/winktounge.gif" alt=";P" title="Wink-Tongue" class="smiley" />:

NaOH is a very aggressive person. He/She attacked others 4 times.
For example, like this:
     * NaOH slaps Clam around a bit with a large clam

Then again, it's comfort to know that some things there apparently never changes (or changes much).  Apparently I'm still fingered as the very long-winded guy even though I'm hardly ever even present there (hmm, or maybe I'm overcompensating when I am?).  And then of course there's this http://www.lemmingsforums.com/Smileys/lemmings/wink.gif" alt=";)" title="Wink" class="smiley" /> (though maybe this one's done on purpose]:

sailor_sam has quite a potty mouth. 0.7% words were foul language.
For example, like this:
     <sailor_sam> I'm also a fan of blue cheese

[Simon]

<NaOH> why do I remind you of peach?
<Rub> well the thing about peach is shes a girl
<Rub> the thing about you is, your a girl
<Clam> can't fault that logic
<NaOH> omg what!? I never would have thought of that connection!
<NaOH> you are truly a genius
<Rub> thanks!
* NaOH bows deeply
<NaOH> you've completely changed my entire life perspective
<Rub> Just another of those pro moments in IRC
<Rub> one for the history books
<Clam> this is going in the Best Of topic

Then today, after reading cc's post:

<SimonN> I want to post a quote to the 'best quotes' thread, what should I post
<Clam> I wonder if NaOH's client stopped updating again
<Clam> there was one yesterday, I even went so far as to say "this is going in the Best Of topic"
<SimonN> oh yes, Rubix needs a girlfriend
<NaOH> no
<NaOH> what
<NaOH> hi
<Clam> to RUB him up
<NaOH> that was at clam

<NaOH> okay, hopefully he won't read this
<Clam> don't read the log unless you like balls

<NaOH> A sad and strange and simple task
<NaOH> A scribe for hire, taking minutes for strangers
<NaOH> You peer into my life from far away...
<NaOH> You always listen, every day.
<NaOH> Do you have a life of your own?
<NaOH> Do you ever wonder what you might find
<NaOH> if you weren't so afraid of speaking your mind?
<NaOH> What goes on behind your |Lovely| mask

<NaOH> Do you ever wonder if anyone |Loves| you?

Yes, and who would keep even my embarrassing love poetry safe from prying eyes, such as geoo's.

Here's what happened. I was innocently talking about decorating a Christmas tree in the lix map editor. J'accuse Rubix of putting foul words in my mouth!

Code: [Select]

<NaOH>        back to christmas theme
<NaOH>        what can we do with existing tiles
<NaOH>        There's a star in occult
<Rubix^3>   just mounds of raw video files is not good to keep hanging around.
<NaOH>     it's creepy but it does work...
<Rubix^3>   heh kinda star
<Rubix^3>   put lights on the points
<NaOH>        we have lights?
<Rubix^3>   umm
<Rubix^3>   guess not
<Rubix^3>   proximas' balls
<Rubix^3>   haha!  that sounds good
<Rubix^3>   his balls are too big for your star
<NaOH>      even the small ones?
<Rubix^3>   god this is sounding awkward
<Rubix^3>   even his small balls are too big!
<NaOH>      are there any smaller balls?
<Rubix^3>   dont know
<NaOH>      I don't really know how small they get, actually
<NaOH>      maybe geoo has some
<NaOH>      I'll go look
<NaOH>      there's the drippy wax thing in occult
<NaOH>      oh yes geoo has perfect balls!
<NaOH>      check out fruit_00 through fruit_08 in geoo/nopales/
<Rubix^3>   lol
<NaOH>      also geoo/sandstone/smaragd
<Rubix^3>   Definitely topic worthy:    oh yes geoo has perfect balls!
<NaOH>      also, matt has one
<NaOH>      matt/winter/09c
<NaOH>      matt only has the one, as far as I can tell, unless you count beach ball
<Rubix^3>   ya fruit is good
<NaOH>      yeah Proxima's balls are way too big for my star
<NaOH>      but would decorate a tree well
<Clam>      oh balls, I've jumped into an awkward conversation
<Rubix^3>   NaOH just cant stop talking about peoples balls
<Rubix^3>   shes a naughty one
<Rubix^3>   I was just at one of the staff housing here playing cards against humanity
<Rubix^3>   what an evil game hehe
<NaOH>      hardly my fault, you're the one who's fixated on the subject
<Clam>      I wonder if that xmas terrain included some nice round baubles
<Rubix^3>   balls to that!
<NaOH>      baubles, that's a great word

January the 4th 2015 we had a FlockDraw session on the IRC channel with me, geoo, Insane Steve, möbius, Ramon and Simon.





We started to quiz some custom levels so that one person gave a level title for another person who then tried to draw it, all the others tried to guess what level the picture depicts.



Warning: the following picture contains a spoiler for the solution of the level 'Love is Over'. Don't look at it unless you know the intended solution.

Spoiler

How many of the levels do you recognize?


The session ended with this picture, there's the last custom level in the background still.



EDIT geoo 2015-01-24: added spoiler tag.

[Proxima]

How many of the levels do you recognize?

Without looking any of them up:

Spoiler

Changing of the Guards
Love is Over
Land of Rainbows and Unicorns
Wait why is there a tree
Hrududu
Get Hype
Absolute Zero
awful flinging level, I forget the name
don't know the last one

[ccexplore]

In some cases (well, one in particular...) it looks like the level name was directly written into the drawing, which kind of goes against the spirit of the game presumably?  Or was it only written after someone guessed correctly?

[geoo]

In some cases (well, one in particular...) it looks like the level name was directly written into the drawing, which kind of goes against the spirit of the game presumably?  Or was it only written after someone guessed correctly?

You know the name of the level is not 'Gayland', right?

But yeah, a lot of stuff got scribbled on top of the drawings after the correct guess was made.


And here are some more spoiler-worthy quotes from IRC (only tangetially about lix levels, and certainly not giving away solutions), to be viewed at your own discretion:

<SimonN> I want chocolate and there isn't any here, and no mate
<SimonN> no Club-Mate, not no partner to hump
<SimonN> which is also not here, but don't care right now
<geoo> just ate the last bit of Chocolate I had, and no Club-Mate in Kenya (and no partner to hump either)
<SimonN> in Humps, the humps got screwed with a large carrot
<geoo> Though I assume having Club-Mate and chocolate is a desirable and I assume usually achieved state for you, you make it sound like the partner to hump follows along the same lines
<SimonN> no, that wouldn't have boded well with the long bugfixing at night this week
<geoo> what else do you screw with a large carrot? the bugs?
<SimonN> when love is over, the carrot takes over
<geoo> this should go in the topic, but don't forget the spoiler tags
<SimonN> let's make it public knowledge what the solution is, so people can talk freely about it, this is like medieval times where you got killed for uttering the unorthodox
<SimonN> it's probably wise to shower now and buy lots of food and chocolate
<geoo> and then apply the carrot
<SimonN> now it's you who's disturbing
<SimonN> maybe leek is even better, who knows
<geoo> I think if you put both together that might make for something great
<SimonN> Wurzelgemüse
<geoo> add some curry, sour cream, mhmm

<SimonN> geoo: now you've put Gayland and carrot screwing in one post
<geoo> how inappropriate of me
<geoo> good thing there's at least no ham involved, considering how inappropriate of a time for ham it is
<SimonN> hamster
<geoo> <Akseli> gonna fondle the mattresses
<geoo> <Akseli> with my elephant's trunk
<geoo> this is from 5 days ago
<SimonN> he's been invigorating and happy ever since

Now I'm curious if you ever worked out what the bug was...
