11:34:21 <wildhalcyon> howdy
11:48:31 <kipple> ho
12:04:15 <wildhalcyon> how you doing kipple?
12:04:32 <kipple> fine, thank you :) what's up?
12:11:11 <wildhalcyon> Not a lot, finishing up my graduate degree, starting a new job, getting married
12:11:13 <wildhalcyon> its all good fun
12:11:42 <kipple> not bad ...
12:12:14 <wildhalcyon> yeah, its been good
12:12:17 <wildhalcyon> What about you?
12:12:38 <wildhalcyon> Any exciting esolangs I should catch up on?
12:13:27 <kipple> Haven't seen any really exiting new languages in a while
12:14:08 <wildhalcyon> Thats a right shame
12:14:35 <kipple> there are always new ones appearing, but it's hard to make something truly original
12:15:11 <wildhalcyon> I suppose originality would become tougher over time
12:15:40 <kipple> calamari made a language with a 36 byte interpreter. that's pretty cool
12:15:53 <kipple> but the language itself isn't that interesting IMHO
12:16:49 <wildhalcyon> still, that deserves a bravo
12:16:55 <wildhalcyon> is it TC?
12:16:57 <kipple> oh yeah
12:16:58 <kipple> no idea
12:17:17 <kipple> hmm. the article claims it is
12:17:22 <kipple> http://esoteric.voxelperfect.net/wiki/MinISCule
12:25:43 <wildhalcyon> Hmm, interesting
12:27:00 <wildhalcyon> whatever happened to RGB?
12:29:48 <kipple> not much ;)
12:31:08 <wildhalcyon> alright!.. same here

16:01:47 <ihope> Hola.
16:02:05 <jix> moin
16:12:29 <wildhalcyon> hey ihope
16:12:37 <ihope> Ello!
16:13:18 <wildhalcyon> whats been up?
16:14:47 <ihope> Not much.
16:14:56 <ihope> I still haven't won NetHack.
16:15:28 <wildhalcyon> Im still not surprised.
16:15:33 <ihope> :-
16:15:36 <ihope> )
16:16:09 <ihope> Last game, I "cheated" at Sokoban, thereby making me "unlucky", and I got killed by an invisible ogre after getting hallucination.
16:16:27 <wildhalcyon> hallucination really sucks.
16:16:30 <ihope> I mean... with negative luck and hallucination, you can't pray, and you can't engrave Elbereth...
16:16:40 <wildhalcyon> I don't like NetHack that much, I prefer *band variants
16:16:56 <wildhalcyon> but I can recognize why other folks do like it.
16:17:02 <ihope> I play Angband every once in a while.
16:20:20 <ihope> Maybe there's a better variant than vanilla Angband out there, aye?
16:23:24 <wildhalcyon> I like a few versions. ToME keeps me occupied for a while sometimes.
16:23:29 <wildhalcyon> It really depends on what you're into it for.
16:27:38 <ihope> Hmm, it looks cool enough.
16:27:42 * ihope downloads
16:28:21 <wildhalcyon> you should see my roguelikes folder... its deliciously evil.
16:28:46 <ihope> :-)
16:29:10 <ihope> Should I grab the latest alpha thingy of ToME or the latest actual release?
16:30:11 <wildhalcyon> Hmm, probably the latest release. I think ToME switched hands recently (I could be wrong on this) and the alpha might be unstable because of it. Its your call really
16:30:22 <ihope> Okay.
16:30:52 <wildhalcyon> My big goal was to write a funge roguelike, but I haven't written my fungeoid yet, so its just vaporware. But esolangs are, by and large, vaporware.
16:31:08 <ihope> Yep.
16:36:50 <ihope> Hey, cool, it accepts "Neuter" as a sex...
16:37:23 <wildhalcyon> Yeah, they're progressive
16:37:41 <ihope> They're what?
16:39:01 <wildhalcyon> progressive.
16:39:10 <wildhalcyon> They see past the two-gender system
16:39:15 <ihope> Ah.
16:39:25 <wildhalcyon> I don't really know what I'm talking about you know
16:40:40 <ihope> :-)
16:42:08 <wildhalcyon> does anyone have the spec for P?
16:56:30 <ihope> Hmm, this is interesting.
16:56:36 <wildhalcyon> ?
16:57:13 <ihope> Try to go down those stairs, and suddenly you're in a prison cell.
16:58:24 <ihope> Hmm, there's something iffy going on.
16:59:49 <wildhalcyon> curious..
17:00:07 <wildhalcyon> Not sure what that's about
17:02:49 <ihope> Okay, something's messed up here.
17:02:55 * ihope tries the alpha
17:20:09 <ihope> Yep, this works.
17:24:45 <wildhalcyon> yay
17:24:48 <wildhalcyon> there we go
17:24:49 <SimonRC> hi
17:37:10 <wildhalcyon> hi simon
17:41:01 <ihope> Somehow I just became encased in stone or something.
17:41:42 <wildhalcyon> hmm.. what did you do?
17:41:49 <wildhalcyon> Did you bring a shovel?
17:42:35 <ihope> Nope.
17:42:46 <ihope> I was going to do a new game anyway...
17:43:19 <wildhalcyon> well there we go
17:44:32 <ihope> :-)
17:44:59 <wildhalcyon> so the bot is still around I see
17:45:13 <ihope> Hmm... is it realistic to be able to eat 20 pounds of snake meat without stopping?
17:46:50 <wildhalcyon> probably not, no
17:48:28 <SimonRC> ihope: where did you get that weight from?
17:49:10 <ihope> It's a game. I had 30-some pounds of snake meat and ate all but about 8 pounds.
17:49:18 <SimonRC> heh
17:49:23 <SimonRC> which game?
17:49:55 <ihope> ToME.
17:50:39 <wildhalcyon> Its got a revolutionary graphics engine
17:50:52 <wildhalcyon> you might wanna check your computer's specs to make sure it can run the game.
17:50:58 * SimonRC reads rec.games.roguelike.development occasionally.
17:51:09 <wildhalcyon> shoot.

17:52:01 <ihope> I remember somebody developing a roguelike called Chazm or something.
17:53:36 <ihope> Thomas something...
18:04:35 <wildhalcyon> yep, I remember Thomas
18:04:47 <wildhalcyon> I think he's still around too

19:57:23 <calamari> pretty good, you?
20:04:31 <wildhalcyon> just fine. loafing around today and sporadically packing a box here and there
20:08:11 <calamari> are you moving
20:09:03 <wildhalcyon> yep. Two weeks from now.
20:09:37 <calamari> cool, will it be far?
20:09:43 <wildhalcyon> about six hours
20:13:08 <calamari> hmmm.. 6 hours from Chatham, Massachusetts
20:16:26 <wildhalcyon> chatham?
20:16:36 <wildhalcyon> Actually, its probably more like 8 or 9 hours from Chatham
