| 02:18:12 [Puyopuyo] | Yes, the channel name is my fault. |
| 02:18:30 [Puyopuyo] | And Ian pretty much nailed my reasoning. It's bizarre and trivial. |
| 02:18:42 [Puyopuyo] | And Chescheir is right, I don't give a damn about RPI's RED. |

| 02:19:21 [Pipian] | Oh |
| 02:19:24 [Pipian] | When he said PRI |
| 02:19:34 [Pipian] | I thought he was talking about the Mexican political party |
| 02:19:50 [Pipian] | And assumed he must know something about Mexican political parties that I don't (their colors?) |
| 02:20:32 [Puyopuyo] | Ha. You've been at MIT too long. |
| 02:21:12 [Puyopuyo] | "so let me get this straight, Sam suggested the name Cochineal because it is red food coloring derived from insects? And only because its obscure trivia." <- Yes, because it's obscure trivia. And it's a lot more interesting than "#RPI_ALUM_SORTA_GAMING_I_DON'T_KNOW_WHY" |
| 02:22:28 [Puyopuyo] | Also, new Keroro ep for the win! |
| 02:36:17 [gadgetgrl] | oh man, we just had fire trucks lining the entire length of the street |
| 02:36:26 [gadgetgrl] | b/c of a large metal piece hanging from our roof apparently |
| 02:36:41 [gadgetgrl] | poor people above us...both apartments were broken into |
| 02:36:45 [Puyopuyo] | ...you're trying to summon Gozer? |
| 02:36:55 [gadgetgrl] | lol |

| 02:38:07 [nathanbp] | I need a 3rd monitor |

| 02:51:37 [Puyopuyo] | What do you use the second monitor for? |
| 02:52:17 [nathanbp] | chat right now |
| 02:53:14 [Puyopuyo] | Ah |
| 03:00:15 [gadgetgrl] | i could use a monitor in general :p one day...when i have more space again |
| 03:00:22 [gadgetgrl] | my tv works decently so far |
| 03:02:22 [nathanbp] | this is why you shouldn't live in NYC? |
| 03:03:26 [Puyopuyo] | * Puyopuyo lives in NYC |
| 03:10:06 [gadgetgrl] | the correct answer is Manhattan |
| 03:10:34 [gadgetgrl] | the awesomeness of the location needs to be negated by something i suppose |
| 03:26:26 [Puyopuyo] | ...Madoka Magica 6, what the FUCK. |
| 03:26:54 [Puyopuyo] | It's like your entire goal is to be creepy as hell. |
| 03:29:17 [nathanbp] | wow you just watched it? |

| 03:40:40 [AChes] | damn my typing |
| 03:53:34 [AChes] | on an unrelateed note, what are folks planning to do about bags on the morning of the 11th? just checking in before the expo? |
| 03:53:34 [Puyopuyo] | This one's for Ian: http://www.gamespite.net/toastywiki/index.php/Games/G612-FinalFantasyCrystalChronicles |
| 03:53:50 [Puyopuyo] | Probably dropping them off at the hotel until we can check in. |
| 03:54:41 [AChes] | figured it was something like that, the hotel is really close then? |
| 03:54:48 [Puyopuyo] | I mean, if all else fails, I'll take a quick trip back and huddle all the bags to my room, and |
| 03:54:52 [Puyopuyo] | Within two blocks, I believe. |
| 03:55:04 [Puyopuyo] | Our goal with the hotel was location foremost, price a close second. |
| 03:55:28 [gadgetgrl] | the hotel is about 2 blocks |
| 03:55:58 [AChes] | sounds good |
| 03:56:02 [gadgetgrl] | so is madoka majika worth to keep watching? i've seen 1 |
| 03:56:12 [gadgetgrl] | if you arrive first, i can also change the name on the room to reflect your name |
| 03:56:19 [gadgetgrl] | i'm still finalizing who's in each room |
| 03:56:29 [nathanbp] | Jenn: Yes. |
| 03:56:31 [gadgetgrl] | but will know before gdc or the week between |
| 03:56:47 [gadgetgrl] | okay...i'll add that to my watch list for this season tehn... |
| 03:57:25 [AChes] | that might be the thing to do I'm supposed to land in boston at 9:11 |
| 03:58:30 [Puyopuyo] | Jenn: Let's put it this way. |
| 03:58:37 [Puyopuyo] | Episode 1: It's a light fluffy magical girl show. |
| 03:58:40 [Puyopuyo] | Episode 3: It's dark. |
| 03:58:51 [Puyopuyo] | Episode 6: OH MY GOD WHAT THE FUCK |
| 03:59:00 [Puyopuyo] | And only getting darker. |
| 03:59:18 [gadgetgrl] | interesitng |
| 03:59:27 [gadgetgrl] | okay...i'll let you know if i change it! |
| 03:59:35 [gadgetgrl] | i'll update everyone when things get closer |
| 03:59:37 [Puyopuyo] | There's a "Mistakes of Youth" on Madoka Magica. Nathan and I constantly back and forth quote it. |
| 03:59:57 [Puyopuyo] | I may take the 2 AM train, sleep on the train, and get there at 8, drop off stuff and go to my stupid 11 AM panel and then wander until check-in. |
| 04:00:09 [Puyopuyo] | But I have people I must tend to, so I am uncertain if that is my final plan. |
| 04:00:20 [gadgetgrl] | well, but you are your own group..so not as much count :) |
| 04:00:35 [gadgetgrl] | yeah, the people thing changes things a bit |
| 04:00:43 [gadgetgrl] | my friend kathy is coming with me from the city |
| 04:00:58 [gadgetgrl] | other friends are busing it...but i'd rather avoid that if possible |
| 04:01:11 [Puyopuyo] | Well, as we are still united under the banner of Cochineal, we CAN temp storage so we get the bags out of the lobby ASAP. |
| 04:02:00 [gadgetgrl] | temp storage? |
| 04:03:20 [Puyopuyo] | Hrm. Nevermind, I'd probably still need the person in the first place instead of just stocking everyone's bags in my room. |
| 04:04:45 [gadgetgrl] | i think i requested early check in |
| 04:04:47 [gadgetgrl] | we'll see |
| 04:06:04 [gadgetgrl] | this would mean noon at the earliest though |
| 04:06:57 [Puyopuyo] | That works for me. |
| 04:07:08 [Puyopuyo] | My panel gets out at noon. |
| 04:17:28 [Puyopuyo] | PAX East is officially out of 3-day passes. |
| 04:23:37 [gadgetgrl] | yup |
| 04:26:28 [Pipian] | Puyopuyo: I'm in Boston so w/e |
| 04:27:31 [Pipian] | You may factor that into your plans if you so desire |
| 04:27:46 [Puyopuyo] | It's true. |
| 04:27:54 [Puyopuyo] | I shall arrive at 8 AM and go "YO IAN WHY AREN'T YOU AWAKE?" |
| 04:28:46 [Pipian] | And I'll be all like |
| 04:28:55 [Pipian] | "what the fuck i was awake talking to jenn until 4am" |
| 04:29:03 [Pipian] | "shut up go away" |
| 04:32:13 [Puyopuyo] | "FINE!" |
| 04:35:12 [gadgetgrl] | lol |
| 04:35:32 [gadgetgrl] | or more like Fine! *slips bags in door while convo taking place* |
| 04:36:15 [Pipian] | *bags get swallowed by the mess that is my room and are never to be seen again* |
| 04:38:09 [Puyopuyo] | This is why I wouldn't slip them into his room. |
| 04:38:17 [Puyopuyo] | Brendan's laptop went in there once. |
| 04:38:20 [Puyopuyo] | IT NEVER CAME BACK. |
| 04:45:09 [gadgetgrl] | lol |
| 04:45:40 [nathanbp] | hey yet another keroro ep |
| 04:46:17 [Puyopuyo] | Wow. |
| 04:48:49 [nathanbp] | they said the next one (and movie 3) were coming out shortly when they posted the first one |
| 04:48:56 [nathanbp] | I think we already watched some horrible HK sub of movie 3 though |
| 04:49:24 [Puyopuyo] | We did! |
| 04:55:46 [nathanbp] | so in the time Keroro has been airing, anime fansub eps have gone from 175 MB avis with XVID to 300+ MB mkvs with mp4 >_> |
| 04:57:13 [Puyopuyo] | Ha ha. |

| 05:41:52 [nathanbp] | I think it was better when it wasn't trying to have a plot >_> |
| 05:42:34 [AChes] | yeah I think they really just wanted to make episode 3 until the end |
| 05:47:28 [AChes] | I haven't seen 5 or 6 yet so we'll see |
| 05:50:44 [AChes] | it would have to get pretty unbearable not to see the last few |
| 06:06:51 [nathanbp] | yeah I guess I'll keep watching (just finished 6) |

| 14:18:30 [Puyopuyo] | He has gone on record saying that he prefers writing female-female relationships because male-female relationships tend to overwhelm everything else. |
| 14:18:36 [nathanbp] | he just storyboarded the opening for Aoi Hana |

| 20:34:32 [Puyopuyo] | I'd just be happy if they picked one that worked well consistently, and stuck with it. This split is annoying. |
| 20:34:38 [Pipian-Lab] | GSM maybe has more external channels for communicating extra service metadata? |
