01:47:44 [gadgetgrl]yeah, saw the mcgonigial thing..would like to know how it's a game
01:48:06 [gadgetgrl]thought of submitting, but couldn't think of anything non-snarky or that would be unique to win
01:48:17 [gadgetgrl]besides, i'm not going to want to do more writing at that point, after the semester ends
01:48:26 [gadgetgrl]neat concept, not a game
03:37:32 [Pipian]Oh hm
03:37:38 [Pipian]The Dream World was delayed
03:37:46 [Pipian]Indefinitely

04:08:53 [gadgetgrl]sam, when do your classes end?
04:10:38 [Puyopuyo]Uh...May.
04:10:39 [Puyopuyo]Why?
04:13:51 [Puyopuyo](End of May, specifically)
04:16:24 [Pipian]Starting to watch more Madoka seems like a bad idea for chillaxing but w/e
04:23:07 [nathanbp]ugh gonna be so long before more Madoka comes out :(
04:27:07 [nathanbp]GaoGaiGar is 49 episodes!?
04:46:57 [Puyopuyo]Yeah
04:47:02 [Puyopuyo]It's too long for that sort of thing.
04:47:42 [Puyopuyo]Getting you to watch it would be rather entertaining, but probably would require a "GIANT ROBOTS YEAAAAH" group to watch with.
04:48:08 [nathanbp]too long for group watching tho
04:48:53 [Puyopuyo]Yeah
04:48:58 [nathanbp]somehow I doubt it would trip my "this is amazing must watch it all ASAP" sensor
04:49:03 [Puyopuyo]Well, several weekends.
04:49:06 [Puyopuyo]I doubt it would.
04:49:16 [Puyopuyo]I mean, has ANY robot series tripped that?
04:49:16 [nathanbp](last things to do this were Pandora Hearts and Angelic Layer)
04:49:29 [nathanbp]uhhhh...Nadesico?
04:49:50 [nathanbp]I haven't watched many things recently that I wasn't watching as they were coming out
04:50:13 [nathanbp]anyways sleep time
04:53:05 [Puyopuyo]Night Nathan.
04:53:13 [Puyopuyo]To make Ian scream: http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/review/kampfer/dvd-complete-collection
04:53:14 [Sacchi]Kampfer DVD - Review - Anime News Network
04:53:36 [Pipian]Huh?
04:53:40 [Pipian]I knew it was licensed
04:53:51 [Pipian]I would scream if it was rated above a C
04:53:55 [Pipian]Which it is not
04:53:59 [Pipian]So I have no reason to complain
04:56:32 [Pipian]Is there anything worthwhile in Spring season anyway?
04:59:31 [Puyopuyo]More episodes of Kampfer!
04:59:48 [Puyopuyo]They actually rated it lower than I expected given how positive their review was at points.
05:02:02 [AChes]not sure re: spring season, this would have been the week to find out, any idea when it's likely to start now
05:02:04 [AChes]?
05:26:29 [Sacchi]-!- Sacchi has joined #Cochineal
05:26:41 [Pipian]Apparently connecting to irc.rizon.net didn't work
05:27:37 [AChes]the only thing i know about it is that they are selliing advertising in the show, so I think the trying too hard is intentional
05:29:35 [Pipian]Unless it blows things out of the water
05:29:38 [Pipian]I think I will probably pass
05:29:42 [gadgetgrl]lol, yeah
05:29:50 [gadgetgrl]it's pretty obvious
05:30:02 [Pipian]I still keep debating whether or not to go back to Panty and Stocking
05:30:06 [gadgetgrl]heh
05:30:13 [gadgetgrl]it's got word plays
05:30:19 [Pipian]That doesn't mean a lot
05:30:24 [Pipian]A lot of anime have word plays
05:30:29 [gadgetgrl]not to the same extent
05:30:45 [Pipian]eh
05:30:52 [Pipian]That's not going to sell it to me
05:31:42 [Puyopuyo]It's not Kampfer. There, you have been sold.
05:32:10 [Pipian]That is hardly a reason to sell a show to me
05:32:17 [Pipian]Akikan was not Kampfer
05:32:20 [Pipian]And it was just as bad
05:32:23 [Puyopuyo]It's not Akikan either.
05:33:00 [Puyopuyo]The best way to sell a series to you is clearly by demonstrating that it is not a series that you dislike or detest. Thus, through logical fallacies, you will have to like it!
05:33:44 [Pipian]oh okay
05:33:53 [Pipian]well
05:33:57 [Pipian]what if i hate it just by hating it
05:34:15 [Puyopuyo]...you have damaged my logical fallacy.
05:34:19 [Pipian]Then you will sell it to me by saying that it is not itself
05:34:41 [Pipian]which is paradoxically false
05:34:53 [Pipian]therefore
05:34:56 [Pipian]i would hate it
05:34:57 [Pipian]q e d
05:35:03 [Pipian]i should not watch panty and stocking
05:36:08 [Pipian](proof by contradiction)
05:37:40 [Puyopuyo]If it weren't 1:30 AM, I would consider countering through abuse of the squeeze theorem, but I think I cannot help Jenn champion her series for now.
05:39:43 [Pipian]I was worried you were going to use pigeonholes
05:41:41 [gadgetgrl]i wouldn't go calling it my series quite yet
05:41:53 [Pipian]nah
05:41:53 [Pipian]it's defacto your series
05:41:58 [Pipian]based on the descriptions to that effect
05:41:58 [Pipian]sorry
05:45:07 [Puyopuyo]Ugh. No, the only use for pigeonholes is for stuffing an obscene number of pigeons into them.
05:45:07 [gadgetgrl]a statement of amusement is not a statement of support
05:45:07 [Puyopuyo]I stand corrected and apologize.
05:45:07 [Puyopuyo]*but I think I cannot help Jenn champion a series that amuses her for now.
05:45:07 [Pipian]pretty sure that, if it is provided in the context of a person debating whether or not to be involved it is
05:45:07 [Pipian]also
05:45:07 [Pipian]was more referring to sam's continued assertations to that effect
05:45:07 [gadgetgrl]that just means do the fact you talk about k-on all the time, it's yours then as well
05:45:07 [gadgetgrl]if your'e going to use that kind of logic, fine with me
05:45:07 [Pipian]See
05:45:07 [Pipian]There's a difference there
05:45:25 [Sacchi]-!- Sacchi has joined #Cochineal
05:45:50 [Pipian]But yeah
05:45:57 [Pipian]When people are debating watching it
05:46:02 [Pipian]I certainly never say it's amusing
05:46:25 [gadgetgrl]amusing can be negative as well
05:46:38 [gadgetgrl]war can be amusing
05:46:39 [Pipian]Perhaps
05:46:41 [gadgetgrl]doesn't mean it positive
05:46:44 [Puyopuyo]Jenn's negative amusement usually comes hand in hand with a grimace.
05:47:00 [Pipian]But when you combine it with the story regarding your first watching said anime
05:47:01 [Pipian]well
05:47:04 [Puyopuyo]So we must crash into Jenn's apartment and see if she's grimacing.
05:47:07 [gadgetgrl]or a shrug
05:47:09 [gadgetgrl]lol
05:47:12 [Pipian]excellent
05:47:14 [Pipian]5 hours
05:47:16 [Pipian]and i'm there
05:47:19 [Puyopuyo]And see if that Balcony work is going well.
05:47:24 [gadgetgrl]oy
05:47:30 [Pipian](this seems highly inefficient)
05:47:31 [gadgetgrl]don't mention the balcony x.x
05:47:38 [Pipian]There's a balcony?
05:47:43 [Puyopuyo]No, that's the problem.
05:47:47 [gadgetgrl]yeah, off allie's room
05:47:49 [Puyopuyo]There is what is distinctly "not a balcony"
05:47:55 [Pipian]Oh
05:47:58 [Puyopuyo]It is currently more of what I would call "a travesty"
05:48:00 [Pipian]Well I hardly see that to be a problem
05:48:01 [Pipian]oh
05:48:02 [Puyopuyo]Or possibly "dev hell"
05:48:06 [Pipian]well if it is a travesty then sure
05:48:08 [gadgetgrl]more like a high dive for suicide
05:48:23 [Puyopuyo]Well, the builders are still "working on it" are they not?
05:48:28 [Pipian]I hope it is a bunch of 2x4s nailed together in a highly unsafe and do-it-yourself manner
05:48:35 [gadgetgrl]they are
05:48:36 [Puyopuyo]You could rent it out. It'd lessen NYU's library from being a popular spot.
05:48:38 [Pipian]excellent
05:48:39 [gadgetgrl]unfrotunately no
05:48:41 [gadgetgrl]heh, true
05:48:43 [Pipian]aw
05:48:49 [gadgetgrl]we don't have tiles that look like spikes from above
05:49:11 [gadgetgrl]we could even charge, no one would know
05:50:01 [Pipian]P.S.

18:59:34 [nathanbp|work]Hmm Japan got added to the list of countries that the State Department recommends Americans avoid on March 30th
19:03:10 [Pipian-Lab]They just say you should avoid going to Tokyo
19:03:19 [Pipian-Lab]Kyoto and Osaka are fine.
19:04:38 [nathanbp|work]yeah, just read it
19:04:47 [nathanbp|work]My dad is going to Tokyo this week...
19:05:07 [nathanbp|work]doesn't sound like there's really a problem for most of Tokyo though...
