I liked having the IV questions because it's one of the few games I know well

 

[Flintlock]

It doesn't have to be IV; that was just an example. VIII also came up a disproportionate amount of time. I was just thinking that players could have the games they want to answer questions about in a "profile" that Sephibot could use when picking the questions. So if there are three players with the following profiles:

VII VIII IX
VII IX X
VII XII XIII

Then VII questions would come up 3/9 of the time, IX questions 2/9 of the time and the other games on their profiles 1/9 of the time. Questions from, say, V wouldn't come up at all unless a new player joined with V on their profile.

I also need to play some of the games more to be able to write better questions. I'll make it a new year's resolution to complete at least one new Final Fantasy game this year. It'll probably XIII or V.

 

[Ⓐaron]

That makes sense. That would probably make the games more fun, yeah.

 

[Lex]

The more I thought about it immediately afterward, the more I realised that the answer to that question about Weapon(s) in FFVII should be "none" like you had originally.

 

[Octo]

^ yeah that was batshit. I meant to say C - one and then said none by mistake, and I was the only one who got that right through my own stupidity.

 

[Airling]

Has this died completely? Should we have, like, a formal little burial ceremony or something?

 

[Ⓐaron]

It seems to have. The channel even got de-registered, and I lost my auto-sop status

 

[Fangu]

Haha again? XD loool

 

[Cthulhu]

My fault, I haven't bothered to log in for weeks/months because nobody ever used it for weeks/months, .

I like Slack better TBF, it has basic things like embedded images and a list of actual channels and history and shit. Kinda expensive if you want to go beyond the free version though ($7/person/year), but, its limitations aren't too bad (max history of 10.000 messages and a limit to features we'll probably not use)

 

[Flintlock]

I re-registered the channel when I was there last week just in case it fell into the wrong hands. Unlikely, but you never know. I can make Yop the owner and give other staff members auto-op status again if your nicks are still registered.

 

[Ⓐaron]

Mine is. Dunno about anyone else's.

 

[Lex]

I re-registered mine recently and had op status just before the last time it went off. So yes please.

 

[Flintlock]

^ I already gave your status back on election night.

 

[Lex]

Cool, thanks.

 

[Cthulhu]

Is anyone ever still in the IRC and talking there then?

 

[Ⓐaron]

Not really

 

[Fangu]

idk, no, but would have liked to revive it. Not too much a fan of all the invite-only activity going on, but y'all know this already so

 

[Airling]

If not even the remake can revive this, I don't think anything can.

 

[Starling]

I'd like to revive the chat too. I've managed to be there pretty regularly recently in the hopes more people will start coming.

 

[Fangu]

Well, I re-registered. IRC is hopping again after all, with Twitch using it and stuff. Which is cool - if you get a client like mIRC or XChat or whatever you use for Apple computers, you can access twitch member chats directly through there. (You need to mess around with a key or something first, but hey.)

 

[Kingdom Hearts530]

I tried to join but it said: Error Connecting ([Kiwiirc] Error finding network)

 

[Airling]

Have you tried it again since? I connected fine now.

 

[Flintlock]

Maybe we should consider moving our channel to the Twitch IRC network (i.e. simply using the channel associated with our Twitch page) to get more people in there?

 

[Fangu]

I think such a process would be even more complicated than hooking up to the regular IRC, to be honest. Unless someone's made something clever already, which might just as well be the case

 

[Flintlock]

Yeah, scratch that idea, I forgot that everyone has to log in with Twitch credentials when logging in to their IRC network. Wouldn't be very newbie-friendly. There was some talk of moving our channel recently though, what happened to the idea?
