<ec>
incomprehensibly: When you've got some time, I'd like you to try this. (Don't read any of those issues, if you're interested in doing whatever-the-fuck-I'm-talking-about!)
<ec>
incomprehensibly: it's a Minecraft challenge-map I constructed last night (for the most part), in the vein of Skyblock and SkyGrid, but completely different.
<ec>
incomprehensibly: I need “beta-testers” of the concept. See if it's fun, and challenging, and etceteras.
<dsamarin>
i let a stranger into my thing and ruined everything
<ec>
SMP?
<ec>
ew.
<ec>
dsamarin: got a moment? would you mind play-testing my early alpha, here? It's so early-alpha that it shouldn't take more than half an hour to buck up against some wall or other that I haven't provided a way past.
<dsamarin>
ec: why is your name in korean in the topic?
<ec>
Korean?
<dsamarin>
ec: sure
<dsamarin>
<dsamarin>
whatever it is
<ec>
but at the very least, tools, cobblestone-generator, various farms, and such should be possible
<ec>
it's just me fucking around with Unicode on OS X. It probably doesn't work anywhere else. I'm surprised it's still in there.
<whitequark>
I spent an absurd amount of time searching for this font
<yorick>
whitequark: you're terrbile
<yorick>
terrible*
<whitequark>
for the record, F25 BlackletterTypewriter
<yorick>
also you havent even got font substitution for the topic
<whitequark>
yorick: that's missing in both this font and my fallback monospace font
<whitequark>
ie, Bitstream Vera Sans
<yorick>
sane people use terminals with fontconfig :P
<whitequark>
I know; the first thing I tried was to write a pty filter which substitutes regular letters for Unicode blackletters
<whitequark>
but it didn't work
<whitequark>
and when it did work, with another font, it completely fucked up positioning
<whitequark>
fontconfig? pretty sure konsole uses it
<whitequark>
and yeah, I left that blackletter font in my window manager
<whitequark>
<3
<whitequark>
it's an actual scanned and vectorized font from a German typewriter
<ec>
this rocks so far :D
<whitequark>
this ?
<ec>
that went well :D
<ec>
whitequark: dsamarin and I were playtesting my map.

<whitequark>
ec: by the way
<whitequark>
paws
<ec>
?
<whitequark>
wanna talk about it?
<whitequark>
I have comments on the latest draft
<ec>
hm, not now, exhausted off my tits
<ec>
haven't slept all night, been busy with my new map
<ec>
I'll be busy up here in Alaska through this coming weekend (it's my birthday, my father just got married, I'm bonding with my new siblings, and my girlfriend's coming up to meet my dad at the end of this week)
<ec>
but after that … yes, some Paws time sounds nice.
<alexgordon>
ec
<alexgordon>
ec!
<alexgordon>
ec!!
<whitequark>
ec: like, I can very clearly articulate what is wrong with paws, now.
<dsamarin>
what
<dsamarin>
but paws is perfect
<dsamarin>
whitequark: thats blasphemy
<whitequark>
inability to criticize is one of the telltale signs of a feeble mind
<dsamarin>
yeah sure you can criticize paws
<dsamarin>
but to find a flaw in its design is blasphemy
<alexgordon>
whitequark: but ec is a perfect being
<alexgordon>
apart from dat hair
<whitequark>
dsamarin: a fatal one.
