05:46:42 [Puyopuyo]Hey Nathan, you awake?
05:47:07 [Puyopuyo]Hrm. Must be asleep. That or Diabloing.
05:47:18 [Puyopuyo]Anyway, have a question for you. (Or Jenn whenever she's log-reading)
05:51:00 [nathanbp]I'm awake
05:51:02 [nathanbp]was reading
05:51:26 [Puyopuyo]Emily's resume-ing, and she just remembered that she worked as staff for Andrew when Foam Brain was doing LARPs.
05:51:59 [Puyopuyo]How would you best suggest that she add that, as it demonstrates organizational and management skills. (Yay resume-speak)
05:52:03 [Puyopuyo]*?
05:54:58 [nathanbp]I'm no good at resume-speak
05:55:17 [Puyopuyo]Darn. Jenn would know, but I'd like to have this ready by tomorrow to hand around.
05:55:28 [nathanbp]I can ask Andrew for her
05:55:33 [Puyopuyo]Maybe Ian knows how to do resume speak. Well, I'll check tomorrow.
05:55:39 [Puyopuyo]Oh, that'd be great, thanks!
05:57:43 [nathanbp]asking
05:58:31 [Puyopuyo]...he's still awake?!
05:58:40 [nathanbp]Yeah
05:58:53 [nathanbp](1:57:06) WizOfAwz: Running LARPs is not usually a great positive for a resume
05:58:53 [nathanbp](1:57:28) WizOfAwz: i mean it shows leadership
05:58:53 [nathanbp](1:57:45) WizOfAwz: but it prbably ends up with explaining larping and disapproving stares
06:00:20 [Puyopuyo]Mmm. He's probably got a point there. Is there a way he suggests resumeing what she did?
06:00:38 [nathanbp](1:59:43) WizOfAwz: I can't offhand think of any good spin :/
06:00:53 [Puyopuyo]Ah well, thanks anyway Andrew. Much appreciated.
06:01:03 [Puyopuyo](And thanks to you too, Nathan)
06:01:11 [nathanbp]I didn't put LARPing on mine at all, just Genericon
06:01:51 [Puyopuyo]Didn't Andrew have to explain LARPing for your references anyway?
06:02:22 [nathanbp]Maybe, but that's a little different
06:02:28 [Puyopuyo]True.
06:02:32 [nathanbp]Andrew says if he thinks of anything in the morning he'll IM me
06:02:41 [Puyopuyo]Nifty, thanks.
06:03:19 [nathanbp]I can't remember, did she do any leadership type stuff for Genericon? that's probably easier to explain to people
06:06:34 [Puyopuyo]She was treasurer for RSFA and general staff for Genericon.
06:06:46 [Puyopuyo]Admittedly, she's submitting an application to a comic book shop. >_>
06:20:08 [Puyopuyo]Anyhoo, thanks a ton Nathan. How's Diablo 3? Heard Emily teamed up with you.
06:22:03 [nathanbp]For about 5 minutes before I had to stop playing and get back to trip planning >_>
06:22:27 [nathanbp]I thought I was doing really well in Hell and then I ran into 2 packs in a row that destroyed me
06:23:44 [nathanbp]It's amusing watching all the OP wizard stuff be hotfixed before I have a chance to try it
06:24:20 [Puyopuyo]Yeah, I like how they're nerfing everything and the game hasn't had 2 weeks live yet.
06:25:21 [nathanbp]I dunno, their explanation makes sense to me
06:25:32 [Puyopuyo]That being?
06:26:10 [nathanbp]That they knew there were things they hadn't thought of and they'd fix it as it happened
06:26:21 [nathanbp]and then they'd worry about tuning down inferno
06:27:10 [nathanbp]as long as they don't nerf my poison hydra
06:28:08 [Puyopuyo]As it stands, you play Nightmare and Hell like you leveled to get to 60.
06:28:38 [Puyopuyo]They're almost entirely worthless, as the best drops are in Inferno and the buff that gives you mass item drops is also only available at 60.
06:29:04 [nathanbp]Yep
06:29:11 [nathanbp]drops are mostly worthless anyways
06:29:25 [nathanbp]it's all about getting good drops off the AH >_>
06:31:46 [nathanbp]o/' poison hydra, poison hyrda. Kills all the enemies while I run around dodging everything o/'
06:32:22 [nathanbp]it did like 95% of the damage on nightmare diablo >_>
06:41:25 [nathanbp]really another str/dex rare?!
06:41:30 [nathanbp]really diablo!??
06:41:55 [Puyopuyo]Of course.
06:42:05 [Puyopuyo]The only drops worth getting are yellows.
06:45:09 [nathanbp]ehh it's possible for blues to be good
06:45:31 [Puyopuyo]Usable, yes, but if yellow are the worthwhile ones.
06:45:38 [Puyopuyo]You pick up blues because at worst you grind them up
06:45:54 [nathanbp]nah grinding up is useless
06:46:01 [nathanbp]there's no point in ever crafting anything
06:46:05 [nathanbp]maybe in inferno
06:46:53 [Puyopuyo]...you sound just like Emily.
06:46:58 [Puyopuyo]I am so disappointed with this game.
06:47:13 [nathanbp]Gold would have to inflate a TON before it was worth crafting anything
06:47:27 [nathanbp]You can sell blues and buy mats on the AH for cheaper
06:47:54 [nathanbp]but you could also just buy the gear you wanted on the AH for probably only a little more than crafting a similar item once
06:47:59 [nathanbp]which would have totally random stats soooo
06:48:52 [nathanbp]I feel like it will never inflate that much at low levels
06:50:47 [Puyopuyo]You can't buy mats on the AH at the moment, I thought.
06:52:50 [nathanbp]well, as compared to when you could
06:55:37 [nathanbp]ugh lost the treasure goblin :(
07:04:48 [nathanbp]ugh my quest bugged out
07:04:50 [nathanbp]time to sleep
07:04:59 [Puyopuyo]Night Nathan!
