~00:00:00 <aSH^> aussies lose
~00:00:00 <aSH^> incredible
~00:00:00 <stefan> lot of people not happy with Ponting
~00:00:00 <damian> ahha
~00:00:00 <damian> it was a pretty tight game tho
~00:00:00 <damian> what did they end up winning by?
~00:00:00 <damian> i caught the second last bowl
~00:00:00 <stefan> Australia 434/4 (49.6 ov)
~00:00:00 <stefan> South Africa 438/9 (49.5 ov)
~00:00:00 <stefan>
~00:00:00 <aSH^> damo, you caught it how? you have foxtel?
~00:00:00 <damian> ahh, not as bad as it could have been! :P
~00:00:00 <damian> nah, been at a friends place .. he's a cricket nut
~00:00:00 <damian> south africa did their second last and got the six or four, or whatever it was .. he shat himself
~00:00:00 <aSH^> yeah
~00:00:00 <aSH^> i was just following some text updates on a web site
~00:00:00 <aSH^> they got a wicked on the 4th last ball
~00:00:00 <damian> ahh, they didn't even get the last bowl
~00:00:00 <aSH^> wicket*
~00:00:00 <aSH^> then ntini came in and hit a single
~00:00:00 <damian> or didn't get a run anyway
~00:00:00 <damian> i was saying that they could get a max. 444, which would be an easy one to remember
~00:00:00 <aSH^> and on the second last ball, boucher hit a 4
~00:00:00 <JarZ> oh my fucking god
~00:00:00 <JarZ> we lost!
~00:00:00 <aSH^> ponting made 164, and then gibbs made 175
~00:00:00 <aSH^> lol
~00:00:00 <JarZ> yes
~00:00:00 <aSH^> why did bret lee not bowl 10 overs
~00:00:00 <JarZ> we watched the whole south africa innings at some pub
~00:00:00 <aSH^> as if they bowled lewis instead
~00:00:00 <JarZ> yeah
~00:00:00 <JarZ> WHY TYHE FUCK DID PONTING BOWL LEWIS%#&(%&#$
~00:00:00 <aSH^> he got hit for 113 from 10 overs
~00:00:00 <JarZ> he is officially the worst bowler in one day cricket history
~00:00:00 <JarZ> why the fuck did he not bowl lee, symonds, clark.. whoever else didnt have their 10
~00:00:00 <JarZ> wtf was witht hat
~00:00:00 <JarZ> there has to be something whacky with that ground too
~00:00:00 <aSH^> good match though anyway
~00:00:00 <JarZ> the two highest scoring innings in one match
~00:00:00 <JarZ> that's crazy
~00:00:00 <JarZ> eyah
~00:00:00 <aSH^> i like to see batting sides chase down a high total
~00:00:00 <JarZ> we lost with the highest one day score ever though!
~00:00:00 Quit: stefan ([email protected]) Read error to stefan: Connection reset by peer
~00:00:00 <damian> haha yeah, even tho we lost .. we still kicked arse compared to other matches
~00:00:00 <damian> and being the first to do it made it a better accomplishment, because we weren't trying to beat the opposition
~00:00:00 <damian> night
~00:00:00 <JarZ> bye
~00:00:00 <stefan> ffffs, 64/384 now

~00:00:00 <JarZ> hi sup?
~00:00:00 <JarZ> anyone alive etc? :|
~00:00:00 <aSH^> heya
~00:00:00 <JarZ> what's up?
~00:00:00 <aSH^> not much at the moment
~00:00:00 <aSH^> just trying to catch up on uni
~00:00:00 <aSH^> and also fixing my sleeping today
~00:00:00 <JarZ> ah i see
~00:00:00 <JarZ> so you wouldnt be up for going into the city and playing some pool, then? :|
~00:00:00 <aSH^> nah i really need to get on top of my uni courses
~00:00:00 <JarZ> damn
~00:00:00 <aSH^> did you see that thing in the newspaper about the olympic dam?
~00:00:00 <aSH^> SA is going to have a huge expansion in the mining industry
~00:00:00 <aSH^> aparently companies are offering $50k cash to 3rd year students studying mining to sign them up, and then they start working with a 120k package
~00:00:00 <aSH^> cos there's gonna be so much money in it
~00:00:00 <aSH^> and not enough employees
~00:00:00 <aSH^> twould have been good to have studied mining hehe
~00:00:00 <JarZ> it's such harsh, harsh work though
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> I know a couple of miners, they love it
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> apparently about the only downside to the job is it being too fucking hot and that there's a bit too much risk involced
~00:00:00 <JarZ> it takes a certain kind of person to do that sort of work though
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> *involved, what with air problems and explosives
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> definitely
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> like truckies
~00:00:00 <JarZ> see, the main downside i'd have would be that it's in the middle of fuckign nowhere
~00:00:00 <JarZ> and not having communication with my friends would suck
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> some places it's not that bad if you can come back for the weekends
~00:00:00 <JarZ> it depends on the setup. a friend of mine was goign to get a job on an oil rig or something in the outback
~00:00:00 <JarZ> and he said it was 2 weeks on 1 week off, iirc
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> oil rigs are shit
~00:00:00 <aSH^> yeah. the olympic dam site has developed into quite a decent sized town now due to all the money from the mine, but everyone who lives there is involved in the mining somehow
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> and thats a different type of minig
~00:00:00 <aSH^> also sites like that have regular drug tests
~00:00:00 <JarZ> Simulacrum; but the living conditions are pretty much the same
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> everyone I know who did mining were doing big digs in the middle of nowhere inland
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> quite a few oil rigs have much better conditions
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> they're like submarines, you can get internet access sometimes for instance
~00:00:00 <aSH^> harsh job?
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> and computers, you're just further away from everyone physically
~00:00:00 <JarZ> [04:01] <JarZ> it depends on the setup. a friend of mine was goign to get a job on an oil rig or something in the outback
~00:00:00 <aSH^> it's pretty high tech now
~00:00:00 <JarZ> not off shore oil rigs
~00:00:00 <aSH^> if you were one of the engineers surveying sites etc and planning where to drill, it probably wouldn't be too physical, and you'd get paid a fortune
~00:00:00 <JarZ> aSH^; true. but i've heard plenty of stories of things like 12 hour shifts for 14 days in a row, then a week off, etc
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> I didn't see that.
~00:00:00 <aSH^> a guy jack and i travelled with in nepal was an electrician who worked on mining sites, and he said he goes there for sometimes 1 month, and pretty much spends nothing there because the town is so small, except buying porno mags and alcohol
~00:00:00 <aSH^> and he comes home totaly loaded hehe
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> yeah, a fair few of them are like being in the army, you'll go, have everything supplied for you and come home with like, 99% of your income as profit
~00:00:00 <JarZ> i was seriously considering going down that path and applying for mining type jobs, after talking to my mate who's on this oil rig
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> well, probably more like the USMC than our army :P
~00:00:00 <JarZ> but as i said before, i couldnt stand being away from everyone
~00:00:00 <JarZ> still... $50k incentive and $120k a year for uni students? that'd be so awesome
~00:00:00 <aSH^> it said in the paper that they're going to have to get a lot of workers from india and china to fill the demand
~00:00:00 <aSH^> but they'd prefer to recruit locally
~00:00:00 <aSH^> this is bhp
~00:00:00 <JarZ> yup
~00:00:00 <Dilmah> hey guys
~00:00:00 <JarZ> ey, what's up?
~00:00:00 <Dilmah> just enjoying the day off
~00:00:00 <Dilmah> cant believe its 4 already
~00:00:00 <JarZ> do you want to head into the city and play some pool or something, Dilmah?
~00:00:00 <Dilmah> i should catch up on uni tonight..
~00:00:00 <JarZ> :(
~00:00:00 <aSH^> that hurt a lot
~00:00:00 <aSH^> i just dropped a big container of frozen pasta sauce on my toe
~00:00:00 <aSH^> it was pretty much like a brick of ice
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> owch
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> luckily it probably wasn't as heavy as an equivalent size block of ice
~00:00:00 <stefan> my uncle & cousin have done a lot of work on oil rigs at sea
~00:00:00 <stefan> 2 weeks on, 2 weeks off usually
~00:00:00 <stefan> and other than the potential danger, the environment is really quite good for them
~00:00:00 <stefan> good fishing & gourmet food
~00:00:00 <stefan> and isolation from the girlfriend, heh
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> haha
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> yeah
~00:00:00 <aSH^> argh i really wanna play some multiplayer risk
~00:00:00 <aSH^> it'd be great if we could get it going over the net
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> Thats what the guy from #aussie who's a driller would sday
~00:00:00 <JarZ> hamachi works iirc
~00:00:00 <stefan> it does
~00:00:00 <stefan> but it has a habit of dying half way through
~00:00:00 <JarZ> ah
~00:00:00 <aSH^> anyone wanna try?
~00:00:00 <JarZ> i installed that program but i dont think i've ever used it
~00:00:00 <JarZ> nah not really, ash ;P
~00:00:00 <JarZ> i got over risk after playing it obsessively for years ;P
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> I'd be willing tommorow
~00:00:00 <aSH^> my risk skills will own you
~00:00:00 <Carson> setup some form of proper vpn?
~00:00:00 <aSH^> on saturday night you said you were gonna get back into it
~00:00:00 <aSH^> hmm if you played it for years you'd probably own me then
~00:00:00 Join: Blacky_ ([email protected]) to #marryatvillehs
~00:00:00 <JarZ> nah i reckon i'd suck now
~00:00:00 <JarZ> also i generally used different options to most people in risk2
~00:00:00 <aSH^> such as?
~00:00:00 <Carson> retreat into the corner and hope.
~00:00:00 <JarZ> i cant remember at all
~00:00:00 <JarZ> hahaha
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> hahaha
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> That's a stable gaming tactic with risk2
~00:00:00 <aSH^> so much risk talk! we must play!
~00:00:00 <Carson> or get one continent, and build it hugely, then take over...
~00:00:00 <Carson> don't know if that'll work well enough though
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> it works if people leave you alone
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> but that doesn't usually happen
~00:00:00 * aSH^ shares not his risk tactics
~00:00:00 <aSH^> hmm, has anyone got any idea what "capital risk" is? i'm doing a tornament, and it says my mission is to hold my own capital and capture three others
~00:00:00 <Carson> capital cities...
~00:00:00 <Carson> you'll be given one, you take more
~00:00:00 <aSH^> but it begins with a territory grab
~00:00:00 <aSH^> on a blank board
~00:00:00 <aSH^> and also there aren't any capital cities, just continents and countries
~00:00:00 <Dilmah> itll ask you to choose a capital after the grab
~00:00:00 <aSH^> ahhh
~00:00:00 <Dilmah> we should all just download one of the online risk games, itll be esentially the same as the microprose one weve got
~00:00:00 <Dilmah> but with multiplayer :)
~00:00:00 <Carson> they'll probably have better random too
~00:00:00 <stefan> haha, yeah
~00:00:00 <stefan> that random rocked at lans
~00:00:00 Quit: Simulacrum ([email protected]) Killed (NickOP (Kill requested by D`Deridex))
~00:00:00 <JarZ> hmm my tactics own so much against computer players
~00:00:00 <JarZ> but i dont know how they'd do against people
~00:00:00 <JarZ> i just completely slaughtered the computer in 5 game turns in a default sametime game
~00:00:00 <JarZ> 2 computer players and me
~00:00:00 <Dilmah> human players are much harder
~00:00:00 <JarZ> i know
~00:00:00 <Dilmah> im playing an online risk atm
~00:00:00 <Dilmah> mission risk
~00:00:00 <Dilmah> ...its shit
~00:00:00 <JarZ> lol
~00:00:00 <JarZ> risk2 sametime wins
~00:00:00 <aSH^> another risk question
~00:00:00 <aSH^> does allying with someone actually change the game in any way?
~00:00:00 <JarZ> nfi
~00:00:00 <aSH^> besides the fact that they might not attack you
~00:00:00 <aSH^> classic mode is also cool
~00:00:00 <aSH^> how far have you got in the tournaments dylan?
~00:00:00 <Dilmah> i got to sixth round then lost one, which resets it
~00:00:00 <aSH^> ah ok
~00:00:00 <aSH^> i'm up to round 5 now
~00:00:00 <aSH^> i'm gonna try mission risk dylan
~00:00:00 <aSH^> so at least we can play together
~00:00:00 <aSH^> wow that is pretty shit
~00:00:00 <aSH^> did you get a game online dylan?
~00:00:00 <stefan> oh yeah, new fg out, just no quota to get it yet :\
~00:00:00 <damian> fg?
~00:00:00 <damian> ahh
~00:00:00 <Dilmah> yeah i played a few online
~00:00:00 <Dilmah> bad interface and battle resolution system though
~00:00:00 <Dilmah> ash, ive found an internet client for risk 2

~00:00:00 <JarZ> haha awesome stripperella is on sbs
~00:00:00 <stefan> yeah, it has been occasionally
~00:00:00 <stefan> need a new season though
~00:00:00 <stefan> used to be on more the 2am timeslot, 9pm is a bit early
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> It was on constantly at 2am for a couple of months last year

~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> dilemma was recruiting people from #AdelaideAUS to invite people / spam for her because she's on the access list
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> so would get fucked for it
~00:00:00 <stefan> unfortunately that's hard to prove
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> I'm aware, which is why I didn't do anything about it.
~00:00:00 <Simulacrum> All I've got is a log, which is easily faked.
~00:00:00 <stefan> have to wait for the bots to pick it up, and then they still have to prove the owner or a senior op is endorsing it somehow
