[08:30] harald schmidt (about merkel at the economic forun in davos): "she's met bono from u2 -- who likes to meet leaders from third world countries" [08:30] hmmm [08:30] lol [08:30] 2Computer-- a large piece of TAPE!

[08:31] keep [08:31] neutral [08:31] I guess were stuck with it, then? [08:31] doggy: lol, would've been easier wordplay if it was cut [08:31] maybe "ducttape", before ppl start mailing to ask what a taperecorder's got to do with it ? [08:31] cut [08:31] you two.... *breaks down sobbing* [08:32] ? [08:32] 4TAPE was... no I'm not saying it. It isn't kept, that's for sure.

[08:34] and lots of other things work.... [08:34] Good point [08:34] Change2 cut [08:34] change2 cut [08:35] Im going to be right back again [08:35] My computer is buggin out [08:35] ARGH, confuzzled now. [08:35] windows ? :-) [08:35] * GretzkeyR99 has quit IRC (Disintegrated: Today is a good day to chat.) [08:35] I don't remember the replicators malfunctioning as often as the holodeck.... [08:35] or the warpcore.... [08:35] 3WORKS worked, [08:35] now that would be funny [08:35] Or the doors [08:36] the transploder might tie for 1st place with the hollowdeck though [08:36] or combadges [08:36] although they do disapear every once in awhile. [08:36] "make it so! ....make it.. hello? is this thing on? dammit, not again!" "I'll go down and give it a good kick, sir" [08:36] More than once in a while on Sev Trek ;0) [08:36] Maybe we should have a poll on "what's the most malfunctioning piece of crap on the enterprise?" [08:37] 2OK, fine, it's powered by a "plot DEVICE" [08:37] keep [08:37] stop [08:37] Cut [08:37] we did that one, didn't we? [08:37] cut [08:37] on star trek, or ds9 and voyager won't be able to compete [08:37] Already had that one, made a booboo !!!! [08:37] STOP !!! [08:37] and they had their fair share [08:37] How do you get multiple lines in a row here ? [08:38] voyager would be too easy.... [08:38] I thought it seemed familiar. Then decided it must be a rehash *shrug* [08:38] don't hit enter [08:38] (shuttles) [08:38] ? [08:38] * GretzkeyR99 has joined #sevtrek [08:38] ok Im back [08:38] welcome back [08:38] if you don't hit enter, you get multiple lines in one row [08:38] thank you [08:38] Thomas - type quickly ;0) [08:38] * ThunderDragon sets mode: +v GretzkeyR99 [08:38] Erm [08:38] I mean DS, not Thomas [08:39] luckily i took a course in blind typing when i was 10 [08:39] never thought back in 90 that that would be SO useful :-) [08:39] I hope this works 2OK, fine, it's powered by a "plot DEVICE" It's FUN and it's for free! Who *cares* how it works? If you're sensing HOSTILITY... that's real.Computer, disable safety-PROTOCOLS! Will you stop questioning the one thing that actually WORKS on this ship?! [08:39] or you could type it out in notepad, the c&p into here [08:39] I usually can't see when I'm typing blind. ;-) [08:39] Hmmmmm weird [08:39] eh, no [08:39] can't tell which is which [08:39] vote4 protocols [08:40] Vote4 device [08:40] vote4 device [08:40] vote4 device [08:40] vote4 protocols [08:40] vote4 device [08:40] Hmmm, how does Thunderdragon allways do that ? [08:40] vote4 works [08:40] If device must win, I think it should lose the "" [08:40] vote4 device [08:40] vote4 protocols [08:40] vote4 device [08:41] agreed on losing the "", they're superfluous [08:41] vote4 hostility (the line, not the session's atmosphere! ;-)) [08:41] By usage of [08:41] hmm, that's a funny word now I think about it, superfluous. What does 'fluous' mean? [08:41] notepad [08:41] multiple lines are easy [08:41] something like fluid ? :-) [08:41] testing.... [08:42] superflous just not as super [08:42] OK, fine, it's powered by a "plot DEVICE" [08:42] superfluid? [08:42] OK, fine, it's powered by a "plot DEVICE" [08:42] One punchline/row. Cut and paste all rows. [08:42] so, you mean, superman juice? [08:42] EWWW [08:42] chatzilla cropped the other lines :o [08:42] I only get the first line I copy and paste. [08:42] ah, just copy the lines in notepad [08:42] (Apparently they're CGing out the supercrotch in the new film) [08:42] it always works in mIRC [08:42] then select the whole bunch and copypaste [08:42] in mirc that works [08:42] * Nemi wants her mIRC back [08:42] Emma: they're what?! [08:42] Middle English, from Old French superflueux, from Latin superfluus, from superfluere, to overflow : super-, super- + fluere, to flow [08:42] I did that, still doesn't work correctly. [08:43] They're CGing out the supercrotch [08:43] Nemi: log in to your computer from here then :P [08:43] in what new film ? [08:43] DS - copy one, hit enter, copy the next, hit enter [08:43] grrrr [08:43] E: see, told ya it was like "fluid" ;-)) [08:43] The one Bryan Singer defected from X3 to direct [08:43] so what, whenever they do a full body shot of Superman, his crotch is gonna be pixelated out? [08:43] DS, you need to get mIRC ;) [08:43] So I hear [08:43] that would make for one odd looking superman. [08:43] I don't think it will be pixelated [08:44] Bah, if it were superwoman, they'd be digitally enhancing certain features, or am I that biased in thinking there are mostly males working with those cgi stuff? :-P [08:44] just... reduced [08:44] or a little black bar [08:44] JC: i sense a cartoon idee here [08:44] Ok... do we have a winner? [08:44] *idea [08:44] John - I think the point is that it would be a big black bar [08:44] In the trade it's known as blobbing [08:44] Which would be funny if it was superwoman ;0) [08:44] thomas: I will have to look into the whole it (and LOL to miguel) [08:44] * Nemi can't help thinking of poor Power Girl [08:44] so do we have a winner for hollowdeck? [08:44] dunno [08:44] Ben says his chatzilla just broke [08:45] who's counting ? [08:45] You know, I really have a hard time counting the votes if everyone keeps putting text here. I don't have mIRC so everything jumps down. [08:45] *eerie silence* [08:45] chirp [08:45] *dustball passing by* [08:45] DS - welcome to the world of Sevmanning [08:45] we'll be good [08:45] shhh! he's counting! [08:46] When I talk again y'all can talk again from now on. [08:46] talking.... about being quiet.... surreal *shudders* [08:46] I once had to devoice everyone and set the channel to moderated and even that didn't stop people talking. I ended up having to kick people [08:47] how can that not stop ppl from talking ? [08:47] ops? [08:47] or did they autovoice themselves ? [08:47] AAAARRGH !!!! [08:47] lol - funny game :) [08:47] :x [08:47] looks like he snapped [08:48] I'll shut Nemi up for a minute [08:48] Doggy: we weren't sure if your talking about talking again counted as talking again [08:48] yeah, you gotta be clear about those things [08:48] DEVICE wins, 6 to someting else, was less then six for all the others. DEVICE was clear winner. [08:48] Dhraak voiced people, As an auto-op [08:48] clear, or queenie ? [08:48] ok Device wins [08:48] Clear winner [08:48] No doubt [08:49] give the dog a bone ;-) [08:49] horray for device [08:49] protocols got 3, device got 6 - that's clear [08:49] Ok, next. [08:49] Device 6, protocols 3, works 1 [08:49] I suggest someone else with mIRC takes over, so the next vote will go better. [08:49] At a quick glance [08:49] You don't need mIRC to run a session [08:49] I've not used mIRC in two and a half years [08:50] his screen keeps jumping up on new text even when scrolled up [08:50] makes it impossible to count [08:50] doggy: we'll behave next time and help with the tallying of the final vote4s [08:50] copy / paste the vote section into notepad and count in ther [08:50] the cut/keeping goes well [08:50] paper and a pencil - works like a wonder [08:50] Thomas - so does mine [08:50] you're a professional c&p enter c&p enter c&p enter c&p gal.... DS hasn't had that kind of practise [08:50] Thomas is correct. [08:50] Slater - exactly [08:51] Nemi - I never cut and paste punchlines [08:51] mirc does not (for those that don't know), once you scroll up it freezes [08:51] See. [08:51] then you must be a professional really fast typer :P [08:51] anyone willing? otherwise i'll give it a shot [08:51] Err... can we move on to the next contest? [08:51] Thomas - go for it [08:52] And once upon a time I wasn't experienced at running judging sessions [08:52] it'll be my first time so go easy on me :-) [08:52] Be my guest. [08:52] And I got (heavily) criticised by Guido for it [08:52] how mean of him [08:52] *Shrugs* It drove me to improve [08:52] ok then [08:52] maybe I'll hug him for you next time I see him [08:52] TODDLER COMPETITION [08:52] yeah, I'm off in about 8 minutes or so, so I certainly won't dare and try doing any moderatewhatsitcalled tonight [08:52] Poor Guido [08:52] Next week (if I'm here) I will have mIRC up and running. [08:52] 4Somebody take the BATTERIES out of that kid. [08:53] keep [08:53] keep [08:53] mrr [08:53] Keep [08:53] keep [08:53] keep [08:53] keep [08:53] keep [08:53] cut [08:53] keep [08:53] I personally never vote when I'm judging. [08:53] keep [08:53] keep [08:54] why not? we have few enough judges as it is [08:54] 9 BATTERIES are KEPT at full charge [08:54] DS: why not? [08:54] whoa, wait [08:54] 4I gotta start LOCKING the bedroom door. [08:54] too fast ? [08:54] cut [08:54] cut [08:54] We've got a good crop tonight [08:54] Pfffffff, I don't know. [08:54] I read that right, but I shouldn't have :P [08:54] cut [08:54] keep [08:54] keep [08:54] Emma: I was wondering why there were so many keeps [08:54] Thomas - her vote wouldn't have changed the result, so you're fine to move on [08:54] cut [08:54] keep [08:54] ok [08:54] "I don't vote when I judge" ?! [08:54] keep [08:54] John - I meant of judges ;0) [08:55] Thomas - once you know how many people are vvoting, you're only going too fast if you move on before (n/2)+1 have voted either cut or keep [08:55] Emma: oops, lol. Yeah, the turnup has been steadily increasing each week this year [08:55] encouraging signs! [08:55] yeah, pretty much assumed the previous one was a keeper [08:55] I rephrase, I don't vote when I'm running a JS. [08:55] I made a point of not reading hte punchlines before the session [08:55] interesting tactic [08:55] cut [08:55] And if there are neutrals, you can reduce the number you need [08:55] I never do [08:56] And for keeps, you only need n/2 [08:56] Makes the sessions a lot faster [08:56] tie = kept right ? [08:56] sorry [08:56] yes [08:56] Yep. [08:56] yes [08:56] I got distracted [08:56] kay [08:56] haha, I beat you!

I thought that's why your eyes hurt ;0) [08:58] cut [08:58] 9MESSAGE received [08:58] Im sorry everybody [08:58] one single color for punchlines would be better?

[09:27] I'm struggling just to get this whole idea credit thing going [09:28] alright, lemme load up the lines for the next comp [09:28] vote4 monster [09:28] sorry, I was ... distracted?

[09:29] Talking about stats, I've got a pretty high "punchline enter- win punchline" ratio I think. I don't enter punchlines much, but when I do they tend to get nominated, and occasionally win. [09:29] DS - you should communicate that technique to Keen [09:29] E: you're the one who said that 4-5 could still result in a queenie [09:30] And it would do [09:30] 4-5 would always be a queen [09:30] I guess it's an attempt to discourage ppl from pointing out flaws, lest they be mocked for it [09:30] But the result wasn't 4-5 [09:30] my point exactly [09:30] So I fail to see what that has to do with it [09:30] 4 MATRIX SUNGLASSES COMPETITION [09:30] This JS is truelly a long one.

[09:32] cptthomas: man, 5 comps must've taken half a day [09:32] doggy: I'm less strict with my culling [09:32] cut [09:32] maybe it's cause you guys cut almost all the punchlines these days so I'm loathe to cull too many [09:32] cut [09:33] Ah [09:33] 4Wrong ANSWER apparently [09:33] brb [09:33] or maybe you're just making up excuses! :P [09:33] to be lazy, that is [09:33] 12Well you're certainly not BRIGHT enough for them.

I got two winners tonight! :-) [09:56] thanx thomas for running 2/3 of the JS [09:56] *wipes off sweat* [09:56] congrats :) [09:56] no prob [09:56] it's not that hared [09:56] *hard [09:56] Nemi - and maybe each time he changes his name to circumvent the rules he has to start learning again :0P [09:56] Glorendil - you already jumped up a place with the sunday toon - you go up another place if TANK was yours also [09:56] hee [09:56] maybe i'll do it again if you need someone [09:56] no, with the TT toon, I mean [09:56] anyway, I'm off now - g'night folks [09:56] JC: as far as I remember it was [09:56] * Miguel has quit IRC (Disintegrated: 42) [09:56] this week, I convert the punchline winners to the new system [09:57] good night [09:57] That will be interesting [09:57] and greetings from mozart-county [09:57] JC, are you going to start up a credit system for the winning lines as well ? [09:57] And Emma, right now, I'm reprogramming the archives so you can view any toons you submitted the ideas for, paid or not [09:57] JC: good luck :-) [09:57] so we can see them in our profiles ? [09:57] Yay :0D [09:57] cptthomas: yes [09:57] I'm doing that for idea suggesters right now [09:57] Now I can see these toons I apparently suggested and had absolutely no idea about :0D [09:57] One more suggestion/question: [09:57] then during the week, I'll do exactly the same thing for punchline winners [09:57] * captainslater has quit IRC (Disintegrated: Today is a good day to chat.) [09:58] When you convert the ideas, will you go back and add multiple credits to the oooooold ones? [09:58] maybe program it so archived lines can be seen by non subscribers if they suggested or won the cartoon in question ? [09:58] E: don't you mean punchlines [09:58] Well... I'm off to bed, while I can still walk :-) Good night everyone! [09:58] Cptthomas: that's what I'm doing now [09:58] night glorendil [09:58] I do mean punchlines [09:58] * Glorendil has left #sevtrek [09:59] Emma: definitely - that's one of the main advantages of this new system, it can do multiple credits properly, the old system couldn't [09:59] 'cos I remember back in the day you would only credit one winner when multiple punchlines won [09:59] (And I might have an ulterior motive ;0) [09:59] it will mean a big change to the hall of fame though [09:59] Could be interesting [10:00] what's your motive? [10:00] haha, Ben can't find where I'm ticklish [10:00] top 20 in ideas and punchline winners? [10:00] Hah, no [10:00] I'll never make it into the punchline winners [10:01] But nearly 7 years ago I won in a multiple winners week [10:01] yep, you'll get credit for that (and free access) [10:01] And then I'll have a grand total of two punchline credits ;0) [10:01] congrats! [10:01] btw, any luck matching up the old names with the new ones in the credits list / hall of fame ? [10:02] cptthomas: I think I've gone as far as I can go with that [10:02] that's gotta be a nightmare [10:02] but ifyou want to have a look and see if you can see any I've missed, please do! [10:02] there's a link from the thread in the DB [10:02] if any pennies drop here i'll let you know [10:02] thanx [10:03] well, better go [10:03] You could do an ideas+punchline tally, but it would be pointless [10:03] I have to clean the kitchen, have people coming over soon [10:03] Emma: have thought about that, maybe [10:03] I also have to do sevname credits [10:03] What's the point? [10:03] I dunno, I just like crazy stats [10:03] Guido would be far and away in first place [10:03] indeed [10:03] I'm surprised he almost caught up to Francis Miranda - thought that guy would never get pegged [10:04] (Incidently, when you're converting punchline winners, he's Roger Wilco there too ;0) [10:04] FM hasn't been seen around (except for the Enterprise ideas) for years though [10:04] catching up with francis is like the holy grail :-) [10:04] Ok [10:04] well, see you guys during the week on the DB :-) [10:04] bye [10:05] Thomas - I'm sure Guido has had his towel on the top spot for a while [10:05] Bye John [10:05] wow, JC's one of the last to leave for a change :-) [10:06] well, I'll log off too now, since I don't seem to have much to add to this topic.... [10:06] Well, Saturday morning is usually pretty hectic in our house [10:06] cu! [10:06] ciao! [10:06] nice chatting [10:06] * Disconnected Session Close: Sat Jan 28 10:06:17 2006
