[09:12:52] mystik3eb joined.

[09:13:01] mystik3eb: New...features...?

[09:13:11] mystik3eb: Well...the chat controls is different

[09:13:35] mystik3eb: Turn off timestamps? That's what they were talking about...

[09:14:07] mystik3eb: And I'm sure there are tons of other things I wouldn't understand what they were or how to use them because I'm totally not in the know about that stuff

[09:16:11] mystik3eb: But,as normal, no one is in here at the same time as me

[09:17:04] mystik3eb: Well I better get ready for church, if I can manage to strain my muscles enough to get out of bed

[09:17:16] mystik3eb: So much pain...I'll never go years without working out AGAIN

[09:17:52] mystik3eb: And I love how gmails total space keeps growing and growing and growing and growing...

[09:19:21] mystik3eb: And I hate how Trillian isn't so great

[09:19:35] mystik3eb: And I like to use extreme terms to express my feelings

[09:19:39] mystik3eb: Probably something I need to change o_O

[09:19:50] mystik3eb: So how bout them Red Sox?

[09:19:59] mystik3eb: *cough*

[09:20:04] mystik3eb: Alright well...

[09:20:18] mystik3eb went away: prepping for church, be back in two hours

[11:10:39] Captain Vimes joined.

[11:12:57] Captain Vimes: Dang, I failed my Listen check.

[11:20:34] Captain Vimes joined.

[11:20:34] Captain Vimes left.

[11:20:45] Captain Vimes rolls (1-20): 10

[11:20:52] mystik3eb: Hey!

[11:20:54] mystik3eb returned.

[11:21:04] Captain Vimes: Hm. Passable considering I just entered a temporal paradox

[11:21:12] mystik3eb: How do you do that roll thing?

[11:21:15] Captain Vimes: Hello, hello.

[11:21:32] Captain Vimes: Slash roll # (# = sides)

[11:26:39] Captain Vimes: Mrp. Dinner time, be back.

[11:26:51] Captain Vimes went away: Dinner. Plus, I hate my router.

[11:32:18] mystik3eb rolls (1-20): 3

[11:36:50] Temporal joined.

[11:36:53] Temporal rolls (1-1): 1

[11:36:55] Temporal rolls (1-0): 0

[11:36:59] Temporal rolls (1--1): 1

[11:37:25] Temporal: ... odd, I thought I told it to reject numbers less than 1

[11:37:31] mystik3eb: >

[11:37:32] Temporal: glad it doesn't crash, at least

[11:37:35] mystik3eb: <

[11:37:38] Temporal: > is fixed

[11:37:40] mystik3eb: Well I see you fixed the arrow problem

[11:38:00] mystik3eb rolls (1--5): -1

[11:38:02] Captain Vimes returned.

[11:38:33] Temporal: I added /roll to allow my chat rooms to be used for D&D-style role playing

[11:38:47] mystik3eb: When would we do that?

[11:38:50] Temporal: Fate of Io's chat probably won't be used for that, but other people might be interested

[11:38:57] mystik3eb: Oh

[11:39:03] mystik3eb: Amuse the peoples?

[11:39:08] Captain Vimes: The masses.

[11:39:13] Temporal: Kass, Dev, and I have played D&D in chat rooms before

[11:39:22] mystik3eb: Man you three have all the fun

[11:39:53] Captain Vimes: That's because they're practically family by now.

[11:41:22] mystik3eb: Oy

[11:42:32] mystik3eb rolls (1-5000): 263

[11:42:39] Temporal rolls (1-5000): 3320

[11:42:42] Temporal: I win

[11:42:44] Captain Vimes rolls (1-5000): 2277

[11:42:49] Temporal: I still win.

[11:42:55] mystik3eb rolls (1-10000): 5803

[11:42:57] Captain Vimes rolls (1-20): 16

[11:43:03] mystik3eb rolls (1-20): 1

[11:43:03] Captain Vimes: I connect to deal...

[11:43:05] mystik3eb: crap

[11:43:07] Captain Vimes rolls (1-6): 2

[11:43:12] Captain Vimes: 4 damage? The hell?

[11:43:23] Temporal: Latency test.

[11:43:32] Temporal: man... it's instantaneous

[11:43:36] mystik3eb: Eh?

[11:43:41] mystik3eb: You get 4 from 6-2?

[11:43:50] mystik3eb: No way

[11:43:50] Captain Vimes: 2d6 greatsword roll.

[11:44:02] Temporal: you're supposed to roll twice and add them

[11:44:12] Captain Vimes: Meh. Felt lazy.

[11:44:18] Captain Vimes rolls (1-6): 5

[11:44:18] mystik3eb rolls (1-6): 4

[11:44:21] mystik3eb rolls (1-6): 3

[11:44:26] mystik3eb: Same

[11:44:29] Temporal: rolling once and doubling it gives you a completely different probability distribution

[11:45:07] Temporal: 2d6 has a 1/6 chance of coming up 7, and a 1/36 chance of 2 or 12

[11:45:24] Temporal: 1d6*2 has equal chance of each even number, and no chance for the odds (obviously)

[11:45:32] Captain Vimes: Well, we're not playing Risk, or slaying imaginary ogres. Otherwise I would've contested that roll all they way.

[11:45:58] Temporal: anyway, between when you press enter to send a message and when it appears, it has to go to the server and back

[11:46:14] Temporal: and yet, I see no delay at all when I press enter

[11:46:25] mystik3eb: I usually do...

[11:46:32] Temporal: I'm pretty impressed with my host's latency and bandwidth

[11:46:32] mystik3eb: Didn't then...

[11:46:36] Captain Vimes: Maybe it's down in the microseconds then.

[11:46:38] mystik3eb: I haven't today, actually

[11:46:57] Temporal: getting around 40ms for pings

[11:47:38] Captain Vimes: Nice.

[11:47:46] mystik3eb: You should have an indicator at the bottom of each page showing how long it took to load the page

[11:47:55] mystik3eb: Well, not should I suppose

[11:48:05] mystik3eb: But some forums have that

[11:48:15] Temporal: that's not as good an idea as you might think

[11:48:20] Temporal: it breaks cachability

[11:48:21] mystik3eb: Por que no?

[11:48:41] mystik3eb: It does?
