[carmine coyote]

Wait I'm not drunk for this

[cosmic pier]

[carmine coyote]

[flat palm]

[cosmic pier]

this is why we cant have nice things

[tough burrow]

I think it was more than 1 person tbh who felt like that dunno, I like rei even if he's asshole ❤

[dense wing]

I dont necessarily dislike anyone here, but I have my more liked people and my "a little more than neutral" people

[cosmic pier]

wao

[stuck copper]

[tough burrow]

I dont necessarily dislike anyone here, but I have my more liked people ye, that's called "sugar-coating it"

"I don't dislike them, but I def like them less, than all the others*

[stuck copper]

But she still likes them, so it cancels out

[dense wing]

I am sugar-coating it throughout my life then

[stuck copper]

I feel like vomiting now help

[dense wing]

I do have people I dislike, but in the long run, I almost always end up losing the grudge and will just see them neutrally

[stuck copper]

That's cool

I still hold grudges lul

[dense wing]

as long as they dont destroy u

[flat palm]

Destroy him

[stuck copper]

I have an eight page research paper due tonight, but I'd rather be grinding for STL

Actually, scratch that latter part

PR grind is boring

[flat palm]

im waiting on timegate

[stuck copper]

After rushing Neptune and Monarch, at least

[flat palm]

to finish neptune

[stuck copper]

Do the paper

I'm only two pages in

What's the paper on

Politics

In general, at least. Specific topic in question is waay too sensitive to be discussed on here lol

Ew politics

[flat palm]

I have exam on 27th

[stuck copper]

Ganba

I have finals in 2 week

My finals are up until Wednesday

Then the semester ends

My grades are so borderline rn

Technically I should have a final on Friday, but I did so well on one of the final assignments in one of my classes that the prof told me and a few others that we wouldn't need to take the final or come into class because we'd have A's either way

Lmfao

King George V is so beautiful

Ikr

I don't know about her stats or skills, but it seems she is an excellent waifu material

[warm bluff]

KGV has cute smug expressions

[stuck copper]

She's so cute

[cosmic pier]

cant wait for the smug bucky edit of kgv

[stuck copper]

Well, she is exchangeable, right?

Or construction just like Bismarck?

[clear gate]

Exchange I think

[stuck copper]

On a practical note, she can equip CL gun as 2nd, so a good combination with Hyuuga

[oblique mantle]

Finally

[cosmic pier]

@oblique mantle go fix the wall

[oblique mantle]

Nah

[cosmic pier]

oh

ok

[oblique mantle]

That broken wall brought me something I wanted

[stuck copper]

I've been sleeping from 3 PM to 3 AM without dinner

[oblique mantle]

It can stay broken. Forever

[stuck copper]

I am so dead tired

NorCar wouldn't want you to be tired

[cosmic pier]

lol

[stuck copper]

Maybe I am exhausted

Rei

[cosmic pier]

🍎

[stuck copper]

I need a powerful sleeping pill to sleep even more

Maybe sleeping for the whole day would be good to restore my stamina

Well, God be blessing, help me get Bismarck and King George the Fifth

[oblique mantle]

Ones going to be for drop or point gacha or whatever

One will be gacha

Sounds like a win win to me.

[stuck copper]

inb4 KGV is Belchan 2.0

Oh no

[oblique mantle]

Something to never use? That would be terrible indeed.

But I won’t complain

Monarch, Duke, Queen till given something more

[stuck copper]

How long will the event last?

2 or 3 weeks?

[cosmic pier]

ebil

[oblique mantle]

Yes rei

And idk

[cosmic pier]

how many bisquits are you gonna pull in the first 10 build

[oblique mantle]

I’m doing what I usually do

Get one and rest are scrap metal

So idk

[cosmic pier]

not even gonna use the rest for LBing eh

[oblique mantle]

If I first blood it like last time. I’ll just post in trophy and let the hatred fill.

[cosmic pier]

[oblique mantle]

I just saw Alter in a picture. I lost interest and now wonder when I can get her again.

So yeah. I probably won’t

[stuck copper]

Wha

[cosmic pier]

lol

[ornate mantle]

Yeah, I think IJN is by far my favorite nation.

[desert harness]

I was super split on it before, but goddamn I just can’t get enough of dog girls and cat girls.

@desert harness

[desert harness]

Yesss

All the kemonos

[ornate mantle]

Floof Empire

[tough burrow]

I like floof, but I just dislike a lot of IJN ships

[pearl abyss]

ijn best

ijn unicorn

[tough burrow]

especially popular ones

like Atago/Takao

Akagi

🚮

Kaga is good, she can live

[pearl abyss]

why u no like yanfox

[tough burrow]

because she's just crazy bitch

no yan here

[warm bluff]

i like uss ships the best

[pearl abyss]

but thats the point

[tough burrow]

not really

yandere supposed to have dere

she's just pure yan

and that a no from me

[pearl abyss]

what about nagato then

[tough burrow]

nagato is nice

even if we ignore that she's loli

[clear gate]

The best floof is Niizuki

[pearl abyss]

she looks teen enough in her night gown tbh

[tough burrow]

eh

still loli imo

[cosmic pier]

you're still a loli

[pearl abyss]

close to legal where im at

i tried to find a line from akagi

thats not so craxy

and i failed

[cosmic pier]

in AL world they all legal

else you wouldnt be able to oath

[tough burrow]

she's just crazy bitch, I told you

[cosmic pier]

[pearl abyss]

oath =/= marry tho

[tough burrow]

well, now it is

[cosmic pier]

it leads to the same place

[pearl abyss]

you mean the marriage paper thing for new ui?

[tough burrow]

ye

[clear gate]

Taihou is worse though because of her voice

[pearl abyss]

i still rmb during the stream

ceo-chan accidentally said marriage

[tough burrow]

Taihou voice is just

[pearl abyss]

and then she immediately "pui"

[tough burrow]

[pearl abyss]

and said promise

[tough burrow]

I mean, it's one of my favourite VA

and they make her ruin the character

[stuck copper]

rei back

[pearl abyss]

cuz iirc, harem games are banned in china, so if they called it marriage, it wont fly with the government

taihou is a yan too?

[clear gate]

Taihou sounds like a small child in an adult's body

[cosmic pier]

taihoe is one hot fuckin pile of garbage

I feel bad for the VA tho

[pearl abyss]

[crisp palm]

tfw when you mute sound and just care about what is on the screen

lel

[cosmic pier]

but the voice is part of whats on the screen

[tough burrow]

voice is part of the character tho

[cosmic pier]

stop stealing my lines

[tough burrow]

and we discussing characters

I'm improving them

[cosmic pier]

[pearl abyss]

why

is her voice

so high

omg

she reminds me of rory mercury

[tough burrow]

and she voiced my favourite chars like Okita from FGO or Hibiki from Symphogear

[cosmic pier]

aoi yuki voicing boogiepop
aoi yuki voicing taihoe

[tough burrow]

haven't watched boogiepop btw, is it good?

[cosmic pier]

I liked it, but the narrating can get 'weird' at times or sth

it jumps here and there like baccano if you've seen that

[tough burrow]

I like weird shit

[cosmic pier]

I really like the opening and boogiepop's voice

its done pretty well

[stuck copper]

what the degenerative has happen here?

[pearl abyss]

mod sanctioned, nothing to see here, move on please

[carmine coyote]

[stuck copper]

[ornate mantle]

Best Floof is hard for me.

[carmine coyote]

Well all I know from the KGV pic is that she's great at shelling, good hp, bland AA, and near garbage EVA stats

[ornate mantle]

I-13 and Ibuki aren’t floofy, but goddamn all the IJN ships are phenomenal.

[stuck copper]

Are we talking AL fluff or in general

[ornate mantle]

Well, my love of floof goes passed AL for sure... but I think all of the floof in AL is super quality.

[carmine coyote]

When in doubt, have this Akagi doll

[stuck copper]

Aww

kill it before it lays eggs

[cosmic pier]

I mean

that stat thingie is the same for all KGV botes anyway

[stuck copper]

Floof

[carmine coyote]

It'll only set you on fire if you ignore her long enough

[stuck copper]

all BBs have crap evasion anyway

Make a BB with high evasion when

[carmine coyote]

Need some evasion aux equipment then

[stuck copper]

the fatest BB/BCs in the game right now are Kongou-class sisters, Amagi at 30 knots, Tirpitz also at 30 knots

Bruh

¯_(ツ)_/¯

you cannot expect those cumbersome ships to dodge like eurobeat

Use the love mechanic from the newer Pokemon games

They avoid attacks and cheat death because the bond you share or some bs

aren't we having affinity mechanics that increases stats by 12% at most right now?

12%

well, the most important stat is evasion

p2w game here

the small number makes it become very valuable for every addtional point

[cosmic pier]

[stuck copper]

Using a dog as a pillow while grinding for Monarch is great

[cosmic pier]

i used to use a pillow as a pillow

[stuck copper]

[cosmic pier]

every time i tried to use my cat for that it used to run away

[stuck copper]

[stuck copper]

you're now a ship

[desert harness]

I ship it

[frank ingot]

I ship

[stuck copper]

oh no

[desert harness]

No oh

[vital edge]

[stuck copper]

Oh baby

[clear gate]

No research exclusive prints, so imo no

[clear gate]

It was a joke

[stuck copper]

Lol

[dim crystal]

Just now remember

Phantom Menace released 20 years ago...today

[oblique mantle]

Many spaces to fill

[desert harness]

Is that akashi build notifications

[oblique mantle]

Maybe

[dim crystal]

Well getting akashi in light build would dilute it even more

[desert harness]

Nice

Akashi is in special

[stuck copper]

what does 1 followed by some weird symbols mean

[desert harness]

1 day

I think

Yeah thats CN so 1 day

[dim crystal]

Akashi in special is even worse

And nope shes in light and special

[oblique mantle]

Thats jp

I would never cn

[dim crystal]

Shes in neither pool in en

Thats good

[oblique mantle]

Not like you would need to grab another anyways

[stuck copper]

Amagi and Nagato watching videos of Japanese war crimes in the Pacific

[clear gate]

They're facing the wrong way. Hecking dorm and its limited angles

[stuck copper]

Just pretend they're watching the screen

I think Navy didn't committed too many crimes during WW2

the Army did, however

right

like the Nothing of Nanking

Navy isn't involved in that incident

or did they?

from what I've read so far, Army did terrible atrocities

yeah

all i know about the navy and army was that they were ridiculously against the other

All I know is Navy's AA were horrendous

Most of IJN ships got bad AA

[clear gate]

IJN had poor AA, yeah. Not a good thing to have when planes were becoming a thing

[stuck copper]

why worry about planes when you can just uh

launch a failed attack against the Pacific fleet by not destroying any of the facilities there

[clear gate]

🤔

[dim crystal]

be glad that they failed

we might not have anime if they have succeeded

[stuck copper]

so wheres the win in that

[clear gate]

The win is that we get AL

[stuck copper]

i mean

[dim crystal]

if the midway was a win for IJN, they would be bombing coastal US cities in the following weeks

[clear gate]

Yeah, but they underestimated the American codebreakers

and walked straight into a trap and lost catastrophically

https://i.redd.it/aio3lx0rtyy21.jpg nice

[stuck copper]

fuck i need money and gems

[dim crystal]

dressup are probably not oath

🤔

so those skin snippets arent either

[stuck copper]

Holy shit

Nimi

Don't steal my wallet

Now I can dance with Nimi

Oh well, of all my starters, why did I only buy skin for Nimi?

[warm epoch]

Where do you guys grind for pr ships?

[stuck copper]

I grind on 8-2

As a trip to get Ikazuchi too

Then go to 8-4

[clear gate]

I grind 8-1, taking it easy

[ornate mantle]

I grind wherever I’m missing a ship.

But if I’m not, 8-4

For Frontline PR, C10 for Backline PR

[stuck copper]

[dim crystal]

[ornate mantle]

I'll get her. yes.

Those last 2 Missions, Don't consider them significant in the grand scheme of things. But yeah, I'll be allocating all resources to Bismark.

[stuck copper]

Hello there, I am a very evil commander, you can trust me

[ornate mantle]

it's on the 23rd right.

[dim crystal]

your catchphrase sucks

mine is better

and I have tons of them

[ornate mantle]

Your catchphrases are ass lets be real.

It's just "Do it".

"Do it".

[dim crystal]

thats senate's ass

the best ass in the galaxy

[ornate mantle]

R2D2 has a better ass tbh.

But now we're getting off topic.

So, Bisko on the 23rd right?

[stuck copper]

i hope so

my body

my body is ready

[ornate mantle]

Awesome. Should have about 100k coin by then.

[stuck copper]

why am i reading a story about a 24 year age gap

[ornate mantle]

I dunno. Maybe should rethink life choices.

[stuck copper]

its kinda cute tho

its like

shes the bastard kid of this guy's grandpa or smth and he adopts her since nobody else would

[ornate mantle]

So I'm gonna take a guess here... maybe you're reading it... because it's cute.

[stuck copper]

that is a possibility

[ornate mantle]

But yeah, that's kinda OT, lol.

[stuck copper]

its very much on topic

think of it this way

Amagi was built in 1920 or smth so like

thats a huge ass age gap

[ornate mantle]

You mentioned Amagi.

So you have my attention.

[stuck copper]

ok now that i have your attentino

*attention

uh

idk

[ornate mantle]

I fucking adore Amagi.

I hunt her fanart constantly.

[stuck copper]

im kinda sad about that since like

most art ive seen is her packaged with the Foxes

wheres my solo Amagi pics

[ornate mantle]

I have quite a bit of Solo Amagi.

[stuck copper]

teach me your ways

[ornate mantle]

I also have a lot of her where she's with Akagi/Kaga.

One, the other, or both.

[stuck copper]

oho

oh boy

how am i supposed to listen to music and do hw while reading mango and playing AL

[ornate mantle]

wao an everyone ping

keel restart

[ornate mantle]

so what is this Yostar account thing.

[dense wing]

what do you mean

its just another binding method

created by yostar

[carmine coyote]

Can I get 5% more before the maintenance or will I run out of oil?

[warm bluff]

almost done with roon, gonna try and finish before maintenance

[ornate mantle]

I was more or less asking if it was like a Website thing I needed to make an account on or some shit.

[stuck copper]

as far as im concerned its just email and code thing

[dense wing]

no its just email and a code

sent to the email

[stuck copper]

which is great since my twitter account got deleted for being spam and i dont remember my facebook

[ornate mantle]

Awesome.

Bound to both Twitter & Yostar Account.

[dense wing]

im bound to all

[candid hearth]

hope YAS working fine now

[stuck copper]

was that yostar account thing always there

[dense wing]

it never had an issue though

no it was included in a previous update

[cosmic pier]

it was just the apk patch that came with a few issues

not the binding method itself

[candid hearth]

last 2 hours of OBT era, friends now everyone here are veterans

[stuck copper]

we're in the endgame

[cosmic pier]

people lost their accounts cuz the data usually doesnt stay in after you update the apk file like that and they didnt have their accounts bound or some shit

[dense wing]

cbt people are veterans

[cosmic pier]

also the notifications crashing game

[stuck copper]

cbt

[dense wing]

notification crashing was a bug before

but suddenly tons of people had it and there really isn’t an explanation why

[candid hearth]

so after Sirens tested everything during OBT, what would be general plot of further events?

[ornate mantle]

CBT people are senior citizens.

[sour crescent]

^

[cosmic pier]

can we get playable sirens as a reward for leaving obt

[dim crystal]

plot in my AL game

lmao

[cosmic pier]

[dim crystal]

[dense wing]

what am I for playing before cbt?

[dim crystal]

tbh the only thing that kept AL from being perfect

[cosmic pier]

pick 1 from the bunch and you cant get anyone else

[sour crescent]

Who needs plot when we can have more TIDDIE Botes

[dim crystal]

is the lack of a main story

[dense wing]

im not a fan of those boats

[stuck copper]

who needs story

[candid hearth]

me

[steep scarab]

👁

[dense wing]

me

[candid hearth]

that was awesome until 3 world

[dense wing]

but ive never read it

lmaoo

[stuck copper]

i dont read story in mobile games xdd

[dense wing]

but it’d be cool if it existed

me either

[cosmic pier]

purifier best siren

[candid hearth]

it was cool feature, wonder why they didn't for other worlds

[stuck copper]

as far as im concerned, the story in those games are just what the unskippable tutorial text is

[cosmic pier]

[stuck copper]

which one is purifier

[steep scarab]

@cosmic pier

[ornate mantle]

Alrighty everyone.

[cosmic pier]

[ornate mantle]

The daily discussion of how shit the main story is starts now.

Take your seats.

[dense wing]

exits room

[cosmic pier]

cant discuss how shit it is if you've never read what it is

[stuck copper]

The story can basically follow what happened in WW2

So yeah, read a history book

[ornate mantle]

A whole paragraph on WW2 for the win I iguess.

[stuck copper]

dont read a history book

go back in time and experience it first hand

[candid hearth]

read history memes

[ornate mantle]

The degenerate method, ah yes.

[dense wing]

NUTS!

[stuck copper]

For example, being hit by the same torpdedo but St. Louis only suffered minor bow damage, but Helena got torn in half

[dense wing]

anyone who gets that reference, thank you

[stuck copper]

tfw youre being sieged and the commander asks you to surrender

[ornate mantle]

[stuck copper]

Proceed to bully kawa to lower her affection for me

hot

what if shes a maso and it actually raises it-

[ornate mantle]

You assume they have affection for you.

[stuck copper]

Everyone starts with 10

"Stranger"

[ornate mantle]

Wait, I thought stranger was 50.

[stuck copper]

It is in-game, partly due to how the ships "respect" us as their superior

[ornate mantle]

Oh, so I guess this is an AV Gen Game.

Where everyone has 10 Affection.

[stuck copper]

well if they knew what i did behind their backs...

[dense wing]

[ornate mantle]

Admire them right.

Raise their Affection.

[stuck copper]

Inb4 those ships were androids just like Detroit Become Human

[dense wing]

it would definitely lower it

[stuck copper]

kek

[ornate mantle]

My ideal commander is Maso Commander.

[stuck copper]

[ornate mantle]

So I'd undoubtedly raise all their affection to 200 upon meeting them.

[stuck copper]

I would tend to lean towards "wise uncle Commander"

epic dilf commander

[ornate mantle]

Was Wise Uncle a Commander.

[warm bluff]

i would lean towards "similar to nicholas"

[ornate mantle]

Don't remember seeing it on Danbooru.

[sour crescent]

Dad bod commander when

[ornate mantle]

Whenever you decide to draw it I guess.

[stuck copper]

Read Ajax's doujin then

[ornate mantle]

I should.

[sour crescent]

Too lazy for that shit, I became an accountant for a reason

[ornate mantle]

[stuck copper]

Well I didn't know Monarch and Amagi have same VA

Didn't realize until now

[ornate mantle]

Oh really.

[stuck copper]

oh fuck

[dense wing]

neat

[ornate mantle]

Pretty neat.

[sour crescent]

And Yorktown afaik (?)

Might be wrong there

[stuck copper]

Yorktown is voiced by Kana Yuuki

I think she also voices someone in AL too

yorktown epic depressed gf

Yorktown is mother

J-E-H-O-V-A

Per Sephiroth's statement

[ornate mantle]

I don't follow.

[lone sinew]

[stuck copper]

Yorktown fits the okaa-san type

[sour crescent]

Yorktown is more like the loveable and helpful Auntie tbh

[ornate mantle]

I guess she can play that roll. I've always seen her as more of an "Ara Ara" like Lexington.

[cosmic pier]

[ornate mantle]

Aya is t h i c c too.

Not as much as Nimi.

That's how we do it.

[stuck copper]

[ornate mantle]

I didn't like those collab skins.

Yeah that face caught me off guard.

Made me laugh my ass off when I'd first seen it.

[stuck copper]

We NEED Nimi's doujin

yes

[ornate mantle]

Now now.

Mention of that holy genre will get ya banned.

[stuck copper]

[warm bluff]

[ornate mantle]

Don't need to imagine it, plenty skilled at it.

[stuck copper]

[ornate mantle]

[stuck copper]

~ Hello there, I am actually a very evil commander, you can trust me!

~ Okay I believe you!

[ornate mantle]

God I can visualize that now.

Makes me laugh even now.

Not as much as Land Torpedoes.

But a great deal.

[clear gate]

AL JP twitter teasing us with pictures of the new UI

[stuck copper]

[ornate mantle]

[clear gate]

Also, Javelin skin apparently

[clear gate]

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/D65XkF5U8AEq3YW.jpg:large

[stuck copper]

i can get behind that

[ornate mantle]

Holy shit

I might actually buy that.

I'm not even a Jav fan.

But goddamn.

I might start being one.

[stuck copper]

bruh

[dim crystal]

The oath skin is Better

[stuck copper]

will nimi get a bride skin

[clear gate]

After Laffey gets one

[dim crystal]

Nimi who

[warm bluff]

if laffey gets an oath skin i'll ring her

[clear gate]

Also Javelin's oath skin is one of the few that I actually used for a time

I don't normally use those

[dim crystal]

I oathed all 4 starters

[ornate mantle]

@dim crystal : Already forgetting starters. smh

[dim crystal]

Haven't been using nimi much

Tho

Shes prone to die

In hard maps

[clear gate]

Laffey and Javelin have the most usage for me

[ornate mantle]

tfw every ship can die in a hard map.

[dim crystal]

Things might change because im levelling z trio

[ornate mantle]

Maybe just stop being shitkikan so she doesn't die?

[dim crystal]

Z1 almost maxed now

[clear gate]

I started using Z frontline since full KMS is viable now

[ornate mantle]

I have yet to try a Full Z Frontline.

[clear gate]

It's pretty fun

You get Z23 and Z46 and there's a lot of pewpew

[dim crystal]

Look at z1's skill

[ornate mantle]

what's it made of? Is it like Fletcher that is kinda specific?

[dim crystal]

Man

[clear gate]

Yeah it's like Fletcher frontline, except it hits a lot harder

[dim crystal]

Just look at z1's skill

[ornate mantle]

searchal Z1

[frail mulch]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/w/index.php?title=Special%3ASearch&go=Go&search=Z1

[ornate mantle]

Let's check this out.

40% Evasion increase for Z-class holy shit.

[clear gate]

40% boost vs 30% for Fletcher

[ornate mantle]

Not bad at all.

Firepower boost too, but I like that Evasion mainly, lol.

[clear gate]

Fletcher does have Tac Command though, so the firepower boost is at least the same

But I would contend that Z23 and Z46 are better than any Fletcher

until we get Johnston

and Nick retro

[dim crystal]

My nick is maxed since forever

Still no retro

[ornate mantle]

I didn't hop on that Fletcher game early on.

So i just never bothered with it.

[clear gate]

Waiting for Johnston, yo

[warm bluff]

i really need to get my nick to 110 and 200 affection

[ornate mantle]

Do it man.

I think only waifu of mine not at ML, and MA is Ibuki.

[warm bluff]

can't right now with the pr grind

[ornate mantle]

Just wait for event man.

[warm bluff]

gotta grind pr with the event!

[spark wagon]

johnston who ?

[ornate mantle]

Yeah.

search al Johnston

searchal Johnston

[frail mulch]

https://azurlane.koumakan.jp/w/index.php?title=Special%3ASearch&go=Go&search=Johnston

[ornate mantle]

[clear gate]

USS Johnston. Doesn't exist in AL, but is a pretty memorable ship IRL

for being a total badass

[spark wagon]

wew

[clear gate]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Johnston_(DD-557)

[stuck copper]

taffy 3

[clear gate]

tl;dr Johnston charged into the middle of an IJN main fleet to defend an unguarded task unit and ground invasion, which inspired the few other ships in that area to do whatever the hell they could to hold the position

[warm bluff]

more fletchers

[clear gate]

The Japanese were so confused that on the verge of victory, they retreated

and the position was held

[ornate mantle]

That is pretty badass ngl

[clear gate]

Johnston and two other destroyers were lost in the engagement, but it was a victory for the USN

[stuck copper]

i think i heard a story of some crew throwing potatoes

[clear gate]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_off_Samar

The USN managed to sink three heavy cruisers despite being terribly outgunned

So anyway yeah, Johnston was a total badass and went down fighting

[steep scarab]

send help

[clear gate]

The crew of Yukikaze actually saluted Johnston as she went down in recognition of her badassery

[stuck copper]

NANODA-

[clear gate]

You could say that Johnston was the Fletcher

I eagerly await her addition to AL

[sour crescent]

Inb4 never added

[clear gate]

Even KC added her 🤔

[sour crescent]

This isn't KC though

[clear gate]

I know. It's more inclusive than KC

[warm bluff]

how about nicholas? she doesn't have something super amazing like that, but her service history was so long and extensive she became the most decorated uss ship in history

nicholas is a pretty good fletcher too!

[clear gate]

Nicholas is great Fletcher too, yes

[sour crescent]

Not a fan of the sleepy botes but Nicholas is nice

[warm bluff]

i like all the fletchers though, i hope they add more soon

[stuck copper]

She's p cute

[sour crescent]

Of the world 9 boats though I like Niizuki the most

She's a cutie

[warm bluff]

niizuki is cute too, but nicholas holds a special place in my heart

[clear gate]

Niizuki is woobie floof, pls pet

[sour crescent]

I like Niizuki because she has the perfect ratio of Clutz to Cuteness to Floof

[clear gate]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_destroyer_Niizuki

Niizuki had an active service life of a few months

so bad

They found her wreck earlier this year

[stuck copper]

[clear gate]

Niizuki has one claim to fame - the longest torpedo snipe ever

At least 7 nautical miles

[stuck copper]

[clear gate]

The vessel that found her also found Jintsuu and Hornet earlier this year

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RV_Petrel

[warm bluff]

it would be funny if we get that ship in AL

[clear gate]

Petrel has made some pretty significant finds

[ornate mantle]

Alrighty all Gnight.

[clear gate]

See ya

[warm bluff]

gnight azu

[stuck copper]

Nighty night

[ornate mantle]

Cya after Maint.

AND THE DAWN OF NEW UI BLESSES US.

[warm bluff]

[ornate mantle]

10 hr maint holy shit.

[sour crescent]

Cya

[clear gate]

They usually overprovision for maintenance time, don't they?

It could be less than 10 hours

[carmine coyote]

1% left for Roon, and I'm now out of oil

[ornate mantle]

I would say so, but there was that 1 Maint where they actually went over like 4 hours.

[sour crescent]

There've been a few cases where it goes well over 10 hours tbh

[ornate mantle]

So I guess we have exceptions.

[clear gate]

¯_(ツ)_/¯

Well, I'm nowhere near done with Neptune so this maintenance means little to me

[carmine coyote]

Reminded of the 20 the maintenance for FGO now

[clear gate]

I'm just sending off my last comm for the night

FREE 200 GEMS

[warm bluff]

[clear gate]

Awesome

[ornate mantle]

Woah what.

You got 200 gems free?

[clear gate]

Yes

[ornate mantle]

Holy shit what commission?

[clear gate]

as celebration for exiting OBT

It's just in mail

[ornate mantle]

Oh.

[clear gate]

What you thought there was a comm that gives you 200 gems

That would be fucking amazing

[warm bluff]

woah free dock space

[ornate mantle]

I got 3 8 hr Oil Commissions and a 10hr commin in less than 20 min.

[stuck copper]

I have 400 gems

Should I buy the other gem furniture

[clear gate]

I'm finishing up my last runs of the night now

[carmine coyote]

More like free 11 cubes

[ornate mantle]

Which one.

[warm bluff]

i'm 1% away from roon, can't sleep until i get her

[ornate mantle]

If it's Trampoline, I'd go for it.

[stuck copper]

I have trampoline currently

Wanna know if swings and horse are worth

[ornate mantle]

if it's Swimgs, I'd consider it.

Rocking horse... I'd go 'meh".

Better spent on Dock.

Trampoline is by far the best.

So... the other two are kinda whatever in comparison.

[stuck copper]

How much is it for dock expansion and how much does it increase it by

[clear gate]

200 per 10 slots

[ornate mantle]

Oh hey, 200 free gems.

I see how you got it, lol.

[clear gate]

Yes

[stuck copper]

10 slots bruh
