[04:06:24] CG: Hello? Is this automatedContraption from the command and conquer forums?

[04:07:33] AC: That I am! Whos this?

[04:08:14] CG: calligraphicGuitarist. I just came on after looking up your game record listed on your forums profile. I have to say, I'm quite impressed.

[04:09:03] AC: Well then let me look up yours...

[04:10:09] AC: Oooo

[04:10:55] CG: Well...I have plenty of time to spare playing them myself.

[04:10:55] AC: Decent... very decent... im looking at your records... how do you stay so level on power throughout the match?

[04:11:33] CG: It's a basis of managing your resources and stockpiling on power plants throughout the game. That and it helps if you raid another enemy's base with some engineers after every siege.

[04:13:13] AC: Ah thats why. I have problems managing power but i usually plow through it with enough flak troopers to defend my base

[04:14:28] CG: I build up my foundation first before I go into anything detailed. But you got quite the straight forward approach to all the games you've played.

[04:16:27] AC: Well with enough troopers and tanks nothing really stops a steamroller. Absolutely hate fliers though. kirlovs never last long enough to carpet bomb

[04:17:01] CG: Well it all depends on the kind of armies you got going on. You wouldn't believe the other RTS games I've been through.

[04:17:53] AC: mmm... Civilization?

[04:18:33] CG: Played it.

[04:19:46] AC: Age of empires?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:19:51] CG: own it.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:20:10] AC: Empire earth?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:20:15] CG: Loved it.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:20:26] AC: god i did too. so much mecha... so much death.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:20:39] CG: I'm more into the fantasy genre myself.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:20:43] CG: Final Fantasy Tactics.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:20:47] AC: Beat it

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:21:01] CG: Pikmin?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:21:03] AC: loved advance...except for the law system

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:21:17] AC: Was ok. didnt like that so much. but it was interesting

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:21:29] CG: I thought the law system gave quite the unique turn about, and I just vary myself with the genre.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:21:44] CG: Star wars Rebellion?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:22:52] AC: couldnt get into that one. empire at war was the same way

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:24:35] CG: Meh.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:24:45] CG: I suppose starcraft and battlezone were more your focus?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:25:01] CG: Considering you're apparently quite attracted to machinery

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:26:27] AC: oh god yes.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:26:52] CG: Hah. Maybe we can have a session sometime. I'm trying to look for more players to share games with and pass the time.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:27:01] CG: at least while I'm not practicing music.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:27:17] AC: Oh? What do you play?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:27:29] AC: And i'd be down for a match... once i get back to my laptop

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:27:38] CG: electric guitar. I'm working in a band. And...You're not on your laptop?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:27:59] AC: Naw i'm on my cell

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:28:36] CG: I suppose that explains the short text.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:28:59] AC: Would you like

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:29:01] AC: me to make

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:29:02] AC: it shorter?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:29:05] CG: in gid hi.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:29:13] CG: Er sorry

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:29:18] CG: Slip of the mentality...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:29:33] AC: Hahaha.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:30:53] CG: Sorry. It tends to happen from slight annoyance from time to time.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:31:07] CG: I've been getting a wee bit more annoyed than usual lately.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:32:03] AC: Whys that Mental?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:32:27] CG: Eh. It's a tiny pet peeve.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:34:38] AC: Oh sorry I'm not too good with the "make a short story long" deal.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:35:15] CG: Hi bnibcac. E coh ihdancdohd.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:35:23] CG: eePh

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:35:30] CG: ...Okay keep it together fingers.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:36:00] AC: Hah. Remind me to run that through translate

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:36:34] CG: Dunno if you know the language.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:36:48] CG: I doubt you'll find it outside of a certain video game...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:38:16] AC: A...fantasy game perhaps?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:39:18] CG: ...You didn't...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:39:26] CG: ...You...play final fantasy 10?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:40:14] AC: oh god that was like what. 8 years ago?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:40:42] CG: I know but...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:40:50] CG: ...It's just a really big thing for me.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:41:28] AC: Alright ill bite why that language and not like... Elven or something?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:42:03] CG: I played it over excessively when trying to get the full language books...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:42:15] CG: That and I played it when I was very young so...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:42:24] CG: ...I...sorta educated myself without realizing it.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:45:20] AC: Well it was like a 120 hour game and thats just for storyline...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:46:43] CG: Well aside from the strategies and all...Final fantasy tactics was the first game that got me into looking up the final fantasy game series as a whole.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:46:55] CG: So yeah...I'm a fantasy nut.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:49:19] AC: Well alrighty Mister Fantasy! I gotta ask have you gone over the star ocean, Phantasy star, or Chrono trigger games yet?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:50:14] CG: Well I count them under turn based strategy.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:50:37] CG: and real time strategy...so yeah

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:50:55] AC: I will find one game you have not played... just you wait... Mr. Fantasy...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:51:15] CG: ... Wait ... are you mad with me or curious?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:51:44] CG: I'll tell you right now I never played shoot-em up games.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:52:05] CG: Nor many platform games.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:52:24] AC: Curious moreso than anything.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:52:35] CG: Oh phew...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:53:46] AC: Hahaha Sorry unless its a death threat or others poking fun at my sis I dont mind. Anyway you seem like an alright guy though.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:55:15] CG: Thanks. You're quite an alright girl. You got a favorite job class in any games?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:56:37] AC: Depends. If theres a pet class ill be in on that. If not i usually go for any melee with high defense. Like a paladin or berserker if they're made correctly

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:57:02] CG: Pet class as in Animal tamer or engineer?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:57:28] AC: either or. usually you cant get both in a game.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[04:57:39] CG: and what machine would you prefer to build?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:00:53] AC: Real life machine or in game machine? Real life I make defense androids. In game its usually melee while my guy buffs them to hell and back

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:01:05] CG: ...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:01:09] CG: You make...real machines?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:01:16] CG: Wow...must be quite a hobby.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:01:30] CG: I just play strings and Fatal Live Action Role Play...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:02:00] AC: hehe. Google Ruby Clarent to figure out who you are talking to. You high up on the flarp action?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:03:22] CG: Yeah an- oh my god you're that famous Mechanist.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:03:36] CG: ...God it must be easy to make mechanical NPC's for FLARP...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:04:34] AC: Mother makes me stay away from Flarping... Wish I could though I want to see how my lovely pets do in them

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:04:48] CG: ... Well ...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:05:10] CG: I'm sure we can figure a way out...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:06:30] AC: Hmm... I could modify one of my braincaps to act as a remot...No i cant do that. Gotta stay in Mother's good graces

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:07:00] CG: Too bad. You sound really anchored down by your family.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:07:09] CG: Only child I imagine?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:08:09] AC: Naw I got an older half sister. She's rather sweet

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:08:46] CG: Oh. Well it seems more like you're dotted on more from how seclusive you sound like your mother is making you.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:09:57] AC: Not so much seclusive. Mother just likes to keep us safe from everything. You never really know whats out there

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:11:03] CG: I actually live out in the mountains and I can tell you there ain't nothing dangerous out here other than loose stone ;)

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:13:25] AC: Ooo. I think thats part of my vacation... I'll have to see the itinerary we have in store

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:13:59] CG: Heh. If you're going to vacation in the mountains then look me up.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:14:03] CG: My name's Eddy Malloy.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:15:56] AC: You on the Alternian side or the Earth side?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:16:30] CG: If you look up the last name Malloy you can figure it out.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:17:51] AC: Well you never know. couldve picked up a last name or something from someone... But yeah I getcha. When I return earthside ill have to take a look!

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:18:14] CG: Trust me. I don't lie.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:18:20] CG: I only play act.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:18:34] AC: so half truths?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:18:39] AC: DANGEROUS

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:18:49] CG: I have to handle with a troll who lives with a pirate for a father...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:19:02] CG: online no less...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:21:26] AC: Oh god that sounds so fun though. Or is he stuck under the cabinboy name?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:22:15] CG: Cabin boy even though he's the captains son.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:22:54] AC: Still. Flying as a solar sailor has to have some good times right?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:23:14] CG: I dunno. He comes off as a troll with ulterior motives even I can't guess.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:23:55] AC: Hrm. Everyone has to be someone...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:24:24] CG: ...That's actually not a bad way to put it.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:27:07] AC: Still does he have a name?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:27:30] CG: He does but I can't say. I'm bothered about him getting to know anyone else.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:28:32] AC: Ah well if hes as big of a weirdo as you say he is...ill avoid it like a plague

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:29:09] CG: That's what people tell me.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:30:55] CG: anyway, back to the previous topic...

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:31:03] CG: if I were to pick a class, I'd be either bard or red mage.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:31:11] CG: The capable support.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:31:27] AC: Ooo problem is not so good on the solo'ing

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:31:58] CG: Yeah I know. But i've seen people pull it off solo with one.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:32:29] AC: Red mage doublcast? with summoner abilities its -godlike-

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:32:44] CG: Bingo

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:34:24] AC: What about RTS? Whats your favorite types on that?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:36:33] CG: believe it or not...an old game called Majesty

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:37:40] AC: Oh wow

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:37:46] AC: cant say ive played that one

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:38:38] AC: What's it like?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:39:49] CG: well it's like any other RTS like command and conquer. It's using fantasy and mythical renaissance ideas such as kingdoms and dwarves and elves.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:40:13] CG: it's an experience where you have to see it for yourself.

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:41:49] AC: Hm. Maybe... Say I dug out my laptop and I got a decent connection... wanna play some C&c?

<p style="margin-top:0px;margin-bottom:0px;">[05:42:15] CG: I'd love to.
