[lost tiger]

i really dont care for it, and if vr is gonna go mainstream and ignore the people who dont want it or use it thats a potential loss in sales

its nice to see games that are both VR/non-vr

[remote latch]

My brother has VR and I tried it out to see if I get motion sickness or headaches .. but didn't enjoy the feel of it at all .. but thats just me. It doesn't fit how I play games. So, as with everything they have done/said so far I suspect if anything it would be an option .. for players.

[kind cargo]

It's possible you just didn't try a game you liked

[lost tiger]

basically ya, an option to play games differently

[kind cargo]

Those are the best

[celest maple]

I do think eventually vrmmorpgs will be the future it just won’t be for a while

[lost tiger]

although i dont play the "triple a" titled games anyways

[kind cargo]

Right now there are a couple being worked on, and while they're nice they aren't anywhere close to what they truly could be someday

[lost tiger]

most of the labelled games "triple a titles" are things like battlefield and those are DEFINATLY not my games

[remote latch]

no .. it was an exercise game .. I would have played it as a regular game .. but not as a vr game

[buoyant heath]

I think conversations about VR games would best be in #🎮│other-games

[kind cargo]

LOL those aren't that fun

you should've tried Half-Life Alyx or Resident Evil 4 in VR

[remote latch]

it was in relation to palia .. so is fine 🙂

[remote latch]

I don't like those games at all Thats why I like Palia 🙂

[buoyant heath]

Well, yeah, when asking about if it would be in Palia, but now it's more promoting VR games in general

[kind cargo]

They're much better than the exercise games

[lost tiger]

chances are palia probably wont work well on my computer because i need a better GPU and probably a PSU upgrade 😦 but im poor so i cant afford nice things

[kind cargo]

There aren't a lot of games like Palia for VR right now, which is why Palia would be amazing to have a VR adaptation as well

[lost tiger]

i have games in my steam library i cant play very well because of that LUL

[remote latch]

But regardless of personal thoughts on the subject... final decision is with the devs who may or may not consider player concensus to finalise a choice if they were of two minds

[kind cargo]

I feel like the next VR game closest to this would be an Animal Crossing adaptation in VR

In terms of games closer to this quality in content in this genre

[lost tiger]

i never understood animal crossing lol

[kind cargo]

I wouldn't be surprised if Sims made a VR adaptation

[lost tiger]

you do things and then magically new npcs apepar. i just dont get it

[celest maple]

That’s why I always check recommended requirements. I should probably check that for palia

I made same@mistake getting some games that only work on min requirements

[lost tiger]

lol summoner requirements mean nothing to me if i like the game regardless. i did play them a bit and still think they're good games

[remote latch]

no requirements known so far. Best we have is knowing that one of the devs used his home I7 to run 3 instances of the game at the same time

[celest maple]

I need that 60 fps

Anything less and it’s not as fun to play

[abstract rover]

200+ frames or bad game

[celest maple]

I think my specs should be able to handle palia since they can handle new world; my old system had so many games that I bought that I couldn’t play at 60 fps

[lost tiger]

almost all my games run less than 60fps, thats how bad it is for me hahahahaha

[celest maple]

But yeah i just don’t get games unless I meet recommended requirements even if there’s min requirements

[lost tiger]

i dont care, if i like that genre, seen gameplays of it and decide i like i'll be a sucker and buy it

palia seems very enticing to me so im waiting with everyone else to come out

[abstract rover]

palia released 3 years ago

you were in a coma

[lost tiger]

ha i wish

[empty sundial]

Lol

[lost tiger]

that'd be a vacation from my irl life with my kids KAPPA EMOTE HERE

[abstract rover]

ew children

[lost tiger]

not children, task doers and im the task manager LOL

[celest maple]

is there a release date?

[abstract rover]

lmao

[abstract rover]

the game isnt even in alpha yet. release is about 2 1/2 years out.

[lost tiger]

or my favorite soon ™️

soon ™️ is a meme in another dicord for another game im in lololol

since it doesnt define a date 😄

[abstract rover]

[celest maple]

2 years is pretty quick anyways

If you keep yourself busy

But if you make your whole life hyping this game it’s gonna be a while

[abstract rover]

tbh if anyone actually read the faq or official channels they would know these things

i am impressed with the regulars here who still have the patience to answer release date questions lol

[ocean stone]

Rusty has 6 of them, or was it 5? 🤔

[abstract rover]

is there a website where they do updates and newss on palia?

[abstract rover]

right here

[wispy jay]

ok

[remote latch]

This server, twitter ( #🐦│social-feed ) and their website ( palia.com) but here is the most regularly updated.

[wispy jay]

thanks

[neat shadow]

I always do

[remote latch]

twitter is more answers to questions .. and to help guide people here. Sometimes they get something that could be new so I try to link those here if/when I see them

oh hi Amelia

[wispy jay]

thnaks

for nwo i think i just stop gaming and focus on studying. bored of my games i play.

[ocean stone]

Studying is good

[remote latch]

yeah find something that works for you 🙂

[ocean stone]

[remote latch]

n > i > s > h ... h < i ..

[worthy rose]

how are you doing today?

[wispy jay]

yea lol

[remote latch]

good good .. 🙂 you ?

[worthy rose]

currently very hungry :(

[remote latch]

I've just eaten and still feel hungry .. ergo I must be thirsty ..

[ocean stone]

Yay I've missed you

[worthy rose]

why he have a capybara

put it back

[latent sonnet]

Release that capybara

[abstract rover]

hello nihssh

[worthy rose]

free the bara

[ocean stone]

frees the bara

[worthy rose]

ty cinna :3

[celest maple]

Capybaras as a mob in the game that would be amazing

[pallid igloo]

[worthy rose]

imagine a capybara mount in game where you ride on his back with your knees all way up like an adult on a kids bike and he has a sombrero and it moves slower than walking speed so it's really useless but it's so funny it doesnt matter anyway

[worthy rose]

Hi Amelia!

[remote latch]

peekaboo Amelia

[celest maple]

Ay I pull up

[pallid igloo]

This is precisely the kind of message I've come to expect when waking up to Palia chat.

[worthy rose]

How much do I have to mail you to get it added

[buoyant heath]

Imagine a duck mount that just dances in a little circle and you have no control over where it goes.

[remote latch]

now that one would be fun to watch

[buoyant heath]

Happy New Year, Amelia

[pallid igloo]

Happy New Year DJ 🙂

[celest maple]

Time to make foie gras

[abstract rover]

hi amelia. happy new year, hope it was good for yall

[pallid igloo]

Heya csr, good to see you!

[abstract rover]

you too :)

[wispy jay]

lol

[celest maple]

What anime is she from?

[ocean stone]

Some obscure manga xD

I forget the name. I haven't read it

[pallid igloo]

Almost looks like a manga?

[worthy rose]

Musuko ga Kawaikute Shikataganai Mazoku no Hahaoya

[ocean stone]

@pallid igloo if you had your choice, would you opt for the giant capybara mount or a duck mount?

[celest maple]

Thanks

[carmine relic]

Aye, heya Amelia!

[pallid igloo]

I feel like I would slide off a duck, plus I would impede its wings. Let's go with capybara. Then we can float across yuzu bath rivers together.

'ey yo Gambit!

[carmine relic]

What about 50 duck-sized horses? Wait..

[worthy rose]

that image is from vol.4 ch.94

[celest maple]

Actually I regret searching this now

[ocean stone]

[ocean stone]

Yes

[buoyant heath]

I just thought about all the adorable tiny horses trotting around a tiny townhouse backyard

[carmine relic]

Aren't they called ponies

[pallid igloo]

Animals of Unusual Size aside, I wanted to pop in and make sure everyone saw the update from #📢│community-news that we are enacting 2 Factor-Authentication for a little while, and make sure there were no concerns 🙏

[remote latch]

will it only affect new people joining or people logging in as well ?

[carmine relic]

It seems relatively unconflicted. I did see one guy say he was mad since a friend of his didn't have a phone, though

[buoyant heath]

The only concern I've heard brought up was someone mentioned their friend not having a phone to complete Discord's 2FA.

But they also seemed like they were looking to pick a fight

[celest maple]

Can the friend borrow their parents phone?

[pallid igloo]

My understanding is that it affects existing members, too 😦

[remote latch]

aargh guess I'll be running up and down the stairs when mum logs in

[carmine relic]

Dang

[pallid igloo]

There are definitely still ways around it, but the hope is that the additional step will help us thwart some of the challenges we're having

[carmine relic]

It might be rather absurd, but isn't it possible to make a bot that deletes any message with a link that has a bad misspelling of "Discord" alongside having nitro in the same sentence?

[worthy rose]

yeah

for that one message, but then they just change one word and are past it

it's in infinite chase

[pallid igloo]

We do have a bot where we program links into it - but the fun part is the duel of "hehehe we found a different creative way to spell it"

[buoyant heath]

Chasing bots is a bit of a losing game - you're always ch...yeah, what nish says

nish was first

[latent sonnet]

@pallid igloo There was a guy here yesterday who was beyond beside himself at the outrage of 2FA, on behalf of his friend who doesn't own a phone.

[carmine relic]

Well let's just hunt down and kill the robots then

[buoyant heath]

Golem Hunters

[worthy rose]

there's a reason we still have daily chat spammers in every server in ffxiv despite hundreds of thousands of bot account being banned

[abstract rover]

i have a solution
just dont scam

[worthy rose]

people are creative

[latent sonnet]

Which turned into a diatribe against American capitalist imperialism, or something...

[pallid igloo]

I saw 🙂

🙂 🙂 🙂

[carmine relic]

Wait, so I actually wasn't half alive when I was reading that and it actually happened?

[buoyant heath]

🙂 🙂 🙂

[worthy rose]

I pray for your strength every day Amelia lmao

[pallid igloo]

Hahahaha keep me posted on the uprising!

[remote latch]

no it happened Gambit ..

[carmine relic]

Aye!

[abstract rover]

im a robot and i take offense

[buoyant heath]

These aren't mutually exclusive. You still might have been half-alive

[carmine relic]

But I'm not a cat

[cinder temple]

Oh no, Amelia's active and I haven't finished setting the traps.

[remote latch]

oh well time to tell mum the bad news .. she may not log in as often

[abstract rover]

tryna catch a wild amelia

[ocean stone]

I hope you made aerial traps

[pallid igloo]

Well... how would folks feel about my turning it on now, and then we see what the consequence is?

[buoyant heath]

Go for it

[worthy rose]

do it

[pallid igloo]

It could be that if you're alrady signed in and don't sign out, you don't have to use the 2FA

OK HERE I GO

[buoyant heath]

Burn it all down

[pallid igloo]

It is done

XRYSTAL CAN YOU HEAR ME

[abstract rover]

nothing happened

[carmine relic]

Xyrtsla!

[buoyant heath]

I'm so glad that nish and I are the deciders of what goes on here

[abstract rover]

xtlastyr

[ocean stone]

Did ... something happen

Did we do a thing

[worthy rose]

I for one have never made a bad decision ever

[pallid igloo]

We have done THE thing

[ocean stone]

[carmine relic]

I'm not seeing Xrystal

[abstract rover]

[cloud jungle]

huh a change that doesnt affect me 😤

[celest maple]

When are we going to see 3FA

[abstract rover]

500FA

[worthy rose]

DNAFA

[cinder temple]

I've been in a server that activated 2FA and it immediately prompted all active users to enter a phone number, so I guess we'll see what happens next time I turn on my PC.

[ocean stone]

4KFA

[cloud jungle]

bloodtestFA

[ocean stone]

[pallid igloo]

I think Xrystal went to go chat with her mum really quick

[buoyant heath]

Yes

[celest maple]

I only had to enter a phone number if discord says my account is being sussy

[worthy rose]

I'm about to go get a burger, anyone want anything?

[pallid igloo]

When Web3 drops its next hot beat?

[abstract rover]

grab me fries

[carmine relic]

I'm already authenticated, so I'm fine to go everywhere

[pallid igloo]

Solution, stop being sussy

[ocean stone]

Palmfuls of liquid

[pallid igloo]

I will also take a burger, P&TY

[celest maple]

It happens everytime I join too many servers too fast

Like if I join 10 in less than a minute

[buoyant heath]

I shut down discord and came back and it was fine

[cloud jungle]

thats sussy

[buoyant heath]

So that means everyone will be equally fine forever, no problems whatsoever

[pallid igloo]

FINALLY

[abstract rover]

ok back to work, i realize i overstayed my lunch break lmao. nice to see you amelia.

[worthy rose]

I only accept them, I do not dispense them

[ocean stone]

[pallid igloo]

You too csr, thanks for chatting!

[cinder temple]

First, love the term 'sussy', second - good to know! Most of my servers don't have 2FA, so I only have the singular experience with it. The admin at the time botched it pretty badly so that not only did it prompt for a phone number, but it also muted everyone and prevented them from DMing admins to tell them what was happening.

[ocean stone]

Oh no!

[pallid igloo]

Maybe Discord has updated the feature since then

[cinder temple]

Seems like!

[celest maple]

Yeah but when discord asks for your phone number your locked out of your account until you enter it

So basically discord requires a phone number eventually

[worthy rose]

the verified phone number is separate from the 2fa setting, I bet he clicked the wrong one by accident

[remote latch]

sorry was chatting to mum

[ocean stone]

We worried we muted a Xrystal by mistake

[remote latch]

hahahaha

[carmine relic]

Yay, Crystal is alive!

[celest maple]

Congrats on being alive

[remote latch]

why what happened ?

[buoyant heath]

Xrystal can never be muted. It's actually in the Discord Terms and Conditions

[pallid igloo]

Well friends, I unfortunately have to go to meetings for the next 90 minutes, so I'm hoping that everything stays relatively calm 🙏
But I wanted to leave you with this video for anyone who is interested in programming bots for moderation! It's one I think of a lot when building out things like banned word lists or discoord links.

Please have a wonderful rest of your day/night/time zones if we don't chat again!!

[cinder temple]

We won't be rid of Xrystal so easily. The sun will be fading and Xrystal will still be glowing strong, dispensing Palia FAQ upon the face of the deep.

[carmine relic]

Muting Crystal means people will be uninformed and clueless. They won't want to wander somewhere they know nothing of, and would promptly leave. Therefore, Crystal ensures the server doesn't suffer a cold, empty death

[pallid igloo]

(uh, here's the link: https://youtu.be/bJ5ppf0po3k?t=484)

[carmine relic]

Whoa, that's bananas

[pallid igloo]

b-a-n-a-n-a-s

OK BAI! 💜

[remote latch]

banana

[abstract rover]

🥔

[celest maple]

that's probably the best vtuber

[keen hull]

Harloo

[remote latch]

Well for those not sure whether it would be an issue or not… I just rebooted my computer and restarted discord. No issues at all. The phone app is working fine too. All with no phone number attached or 2fa turned on.

[carmine relic]

Aye, thanks mods

[fallen summit]

Still in some other channels

[cinder temple]

Poor Amelia. Implements an anti-scam measure and leaves for 3 minutes. Entropy persists.

[carmine relic]

Considering I've seen some of the scams come from hijacked accounts, I don't think the 2FA will help filter them out

[cinder temple]

Yeah, it's not a 100% effective solution, but nothing concerning humans ever is. On the bright side though, this should stop most of the brand new accounts that have just joined from making a ruckus.

[remote latch]

Yeah I think if anything it will hopefully stop scammers from joining to cause issues .. but hopefully not cause people to walk away because of the problems they may have with 2fa.

[sullen bison]

So if we're already in the server we don't need to set up 2fa on our accounts, right?

[remote latch]

doesn't look like it ..

[sullen bison]

Ok cool, thanks :)

[wet ether]

someday we will have universal sso not bound to a giant social media company but rather self sovereign

#onecanhope

[maiden canopy]

hi

[celest maple]

you could prob disable embed links/images until someone reaches a certain level and that may help too with the scammers that join

[late coral]

Guys which way do you wipe?

[worthy rose]

left to right

[late coral]

Okay good

Got worried there for a sec

Thanks

[buoyant heath]

I usually start with any data drives, then move to the OS drive

[wet ether]

wiping is for amateurs, you just need to the right diet

[late coral]

Fairs I guess

[remote latch]

• exit stage right*

[celest maple]

I use a bidet like a normal person

[late coral]

You sure about that?

What defines normal?

[carmine relic]

Who the hell uses a bidet to wipe windows

[maiden canopy]

Sounds inefficient

[late coral]

Whatever floats your goat

[buoyant heath]

I usually just wipe out

[remote latch]

Anyway .. so Palia ... what are you hoping to be revealed first when they are ready to reveal some more stuff to us ?

[somber crag]

Maybe more of what the world looks like. c:

[abstract rover]

how many tacos i can pile into the inn

[carmine relic]

Alpha date

[somber crag]

Always about those tacos, Csr.

[abstract rover]

i like em

[flat palm]

Hey, hey. So what's going on? o.o

With phones and server announcements and such?

[abstract rover]

oh amelia turned on 2fa

[somber crag]

Nothing huuuge. What Csr said.

[abstract rover]

you should be good though

[somber crag]

'Cause of spam & scams, y'know.

[flat palm]

I don't know ;-; There's 2fa for servers?

[somber crag]

Some servers can require it, yeah!

[ocean stone]

its chuuuusday

[flat palm]

Oh dang :O

[somber crag]

It's just another layer of protection, since bots and scam artists be wildin'.

[flat palm]

Alright :D Maybe I'll have another server do that, cause we had an issue with someone whose account got hijacked recently through Discord

[somber crag]

Don't tell Csr, but I don't really enjoy tacos.

[ocean stone]

Sure your secret is safe with me

[somber crag]

Thanks, honey bunches of oats.

[flat palm]

But yeah, if someone (a friend even) sends you a message asking you to play test a game for them. Don't download whatever they send you cause. My friends account got hijacked that way, and it totally skipped over the 2fa he had set-up

Cause apparently, there are some issues where people are disguising malware or something as if it's a discord plug-in to get through to your account

[empty onyx]

Is there a closed beta test going on right now sorry just found out about this game a bit ago

[somber crag]

We were only ever in pre-alpha phase, and the testing for that has ended! Next will be alpha, which will be announced sometime this year.

You just gotta make sure you've signed up through the website! https://palia.com/

[somber crag]

Ye, ye. And as a heads-up, 2fa has to be enabled on your account, too! Like... the only way you can apply it to the server is if you have it on through your account, I believeeee (or I'm reading the directions on my own account incorrectly).

[flat palm]

Yeah, we don't have it on the server, but he had it on his personal account. And was talking to someone else through DMs

[undone mist]

Good morning beautiful people.

[hazy elk]

Morning!

[undone mist]

My head is pounding. Stupid migraine decided to play drums in my head

[somber crag]

Mooorning, Jahnri. I hope your migraine leaves you, soon.

[maiden canopy]

alpha test dates 😛

[undone mist]

I wouldnt be surprised to see dates within the next few months at all

[empty onyx]

Awesome I think i signed up so hopefully I can join you all. This game looks fun

[remote latch]

What did you like the most of what you have seen so far ?

[empty onyx]

It just looks super relaxing I’m not even sure if there’s combat. I’m slowly trying to pull my fiancé into gaming and she has only tried animal crossing and loved it but ran out of things to do.

[remote latch]

Well hopefully Palia will be the game to bring her into the fold .. little to no combat, when they do add it, it will be optional

[empty onyx]

So is it mainly farming and cooking then? I’m completely fine with this haha

[somber crag]

All will be revealed in time. There's a lot of content to comb through for this game, especially in this Discord. I have faith that y'all would enjoy it together!

[somber crag]

There's hunting, mining, questing... as for enemies/dungeons, we're waiting for more info about that!

[empty onyx]

Ohhh that’s awesome if there’s any puzzle aspect to the game she will be hooked for good!

[remote latch]

They are aiming to have those elements that other games overlook as main features .. so housing, crafting and social interaction are the main elements of game play with some mystery and adventure and maybe some action for those that want more

But like Anner said .. some things are still waiting for more info

[somber crag]

A good place to dig around is the #❓│old-team-answers-alpha - sometimes you can just search for key words in that channel, and they'll address what they caaan for right now! I think it'd be easy for her to get hooked - seems like there will be a lot of nice mystery in the story. c:

[cinder temple]

Like the mystery of what happened to the old booty tree.

[somber crag]

We'll never know. I'm just a sprout, now. 🌱

[empty onyx]

Ya thank you for answering my questions! I’m just gonna go freeze myself in ice until the game is out !

[remote latch]

[ocean stone]

[remote latch]

You've come at the right time though as the new year brings a new influx of information .. once they are ready

But in the meantime .. what Anner said for info and #🌠│official-art for visuals

[lost tiger]

i just saw the announcement, are we preparing for skynets attack?

[remote latch]

looks awkwardly around .. erm .. no idea what you are talking about

[lost tiger]

upping the security in this discord channel

that announcement, skynet is coming

[remote latch]

yeah, it's just to help limit the number of new accounts that are added to the server for spam purposes

[lost tiger]

yah and the scam links they bring

some people have no life other than bother other people using bot software

[ocean stone]

[carmine relic]

This is why I hate robots so much.

[remote latch]

hahaha

[ocean stone]

Xrystal you're not skynet right

[remote latch]

I was waiting for someone to see that comment like that

[carmine relic]

Ugh. Even thinking of those robots angers me. Their heartless laser-shooting eyes, that awful soulless metal husk that is them. Bah

[abstract rover]

i'm a robot. i'm offended

[vast wyvern]

Isn't there a real company named Skynet these days?

[remote latch]

hmm .. google time

Skynet Worldwide delivery service .. yep apparently so

[vast wyvern]

WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT KNOWING THE MOVIE?

[remote latch]

even worse .. skynet internet services

[worthy rose]

good afternoon eris

[vast wyvern]

HOWDY

[remote latch]

oooh even worse .. SKYNET is a program by the U.S. National Security Agency that performs machine learning analysis on communications data to extract information about possible terror suspects.

[worthy rose]

watcha getting for lunch?

[carmine relic]

People who name businesses after ultimate villains almost always know what they're doing

[vast wyvern]

I have a delivery service I use, haha. So whatever they sent this week 😆

[abstract rover]

GREETINGS ERIS. NICE TO SEE YOU. :)

[remote latch]

So isn't there a meeting or three you should be in ?

[vast wyvern]

no 🧢 , there is a meeting in 4 minutes

we're super busy these days

[remote latch]

oki doki .. just checking .. I know what you're like

[worthy rose]

did you have a good holiday break though?

[vast wyvern]

damn i love that emoji

[vast wyvern]

yeah! It was super chill and relaxing. Didn't see family cuz COVID, but it's still good!

[vast wyvern]

how was yours?

[worthy rose]

also good! Very nice and chill even though I didn't see family either

[cinder temple]

Aw, I'm so glad the moon had a nice holiday.

[abstract rover]

screw covid, nobody can stop me seeing family

[ocean stone]

Moon cheese probably

[carmine relic]

Remember it's the moon Eris, not the usual original moon

[worthy rose]

my family is a pack of trout that live in the alaskan streams so it's very hard for me to see them

[carmine relic]

Wait. Eris is actually a dwarf planet. Whoa

[abstract rover]

you can use the staring emoji all you want as a reaction, doesnt change anythin yk

speaking of moons

can i go to the moon in palia

[ocean stone]

Yah I know. It's important to keep this topically on palia chat and not about personal feelings on public health matters, hence the react. 👌
If we can't go to the moon in palia, I will riot!

[worthy rose]

I will bring the moon down in palia

[ocean stone]

[abstract rover]

i will piss on the moon
i hope someone gets that ref

[ocean stone]

Not me nop

[carmine relic]

On all the alternative accounts

[limber cave]

Sure, we can get to the moon, all we gotta do is build our own rocket... *** Flashbacks of KSP***.... or maybe not.

[carmine relic]

Doesn't sound too hard. Not like it's rocket sci... Oh.

[abstract rover]

just jump to the moon, duh

[worthy rose]

I'M GONNA PUT ROCKETS (AND CHAPAAS) ON THE MOON

[ocean stone]

Can we use gliders on the moon or nah

[worthy rose]

AND FLY INTO THE SUN

[carmine relic]

Sadly, no

[worthy rose]

gliders use wind to fly baka

there's no wind on the moon

[ocean stone]

But Palia

[carmine relic]

Science time; things like gliders and parachutes use wind to darg against and catch, but on moons, this isn't gonna work!

[limber cave]

Wait wait wait. But this is palia's moon. We have no idea if it has air or not

[ocean stone]

How do we know there's no wind on moons in that world

[worthy rose]

because ||NDA||

[carmine relic]

Do we even know if there's a Palian moon to begin with?

[abstract rover]

science time:
me sleepy nap time

[cinder temple]

I misread this as 'pockets' and now have a very distinct image of a Chapaa with pockets, possibly filled with the many things they have stolen.

[worthy rose]

do you think chapaas prefer plaid

[ocean stone]

Never thought I'd have a more relevant time to use that sticker

[cinder temple]

The ones that live in the woods, for sure. Lumberchaps.

[limber cave]

So you're responsible for anime physics?

[ocean stone]

Lumberchuus

[carmine relic]

Due to too many bloodmoons, devil summonings, and overall crazy people, the moon has been removed

[limber cave]

We don't even know if it's just one moon. could be 2. Could be 12.

[worthy rose]

150 moons

[carmine relic]

That's no moon

[remote latch]

rofl .. sound like Nifflers - https://harrypotter.fandom.com/wiki/Niffler?file=Niffler_FBCFTWW.png

[carmine relic]

The max moons I think you could have is 5, if you're very lucky

[worthy rose]

where?

[carmine relic]

In the sky, probably.

At least... I sure hope they're in the sky. We might have a problem if any of them come down here

[ocean stone]

When

[remote latch]

I haven't seen a moon in any screens .. but there is a sun based on light source direction And the day time music video that should sun light traversal

[worthy rose]

we have acquired too many madman's knowledge and now can see that the moon is a giant monster with 11 arms and 3 eyes

[limber cave]

... Could be twin suns. >.>

[ocean stone]

What if the sun just tucks itself under covers at night and there is NO moon

[carmine relic]

The sun just turns off at night

[ocean stone]

Yeah clap on, clap off

Giant light bulb in sky

[worthy rose]

isn't that the name of that chinese dish? Dim sun?

[ocean stone]

🥁

[carmine relic]

Dang, now I wanna do an experiment/test to see how many moons you can actually have

[worthy rose]

have around what

[ocean stone]

Me!

I want to know how many moons can orbit me uwu

[worthy rose]

jupiter could hold a lot more moons in orbit than pluto

[carmine relic]

Earth/an Earth-like

[cinder temple]

Palia's server is a lot like Earth - its atmosphere sustains me.

[ocean stone]

Are you saying I'm pluto

Cuz I'm smoll ;_;

[worthy rose]

cold ✅
distant ✅
small ✅
not a planet ✅

[ocean stone]

XD

[worthy rose]

I'm not saying you're not pluto

[ocean stone]

[carmine relic]

Shout-out to Haumea, coolest planet I've seen

[abstract rover]

i prefer mars

[worthy rose]

mars bars?

[ocean stone]

Amelia Marz?

[abstract rover]

Make I hate mars bars

[carmine relic]

What about the very unfortunately named planet

[worthy rose]

Saturn?

[abstract rover]

Jupiter?

[ocean stone]

Venus?

[carmine relic]

Mercury, obviously

[ocean stone]

Oh

[abstract rover]

Ah yes, Neptune

[worthy rose]

I drank a gallon of mercury and now I'm stupid :(

[latent sonnet]

Not for long

[ocean stone]

You were supposed to be drinking water, nish!

[worthy rose]

it was so smooth

[ocean stone]

Can you tell the temperature now

That's how this works right

[worthy rose]

130

[vast wyvern]

@remote latch i went to my meeting

[carmine relic]

Welcome back!

[vast wyvern]

I wish I had moon cheese tho

[carmine relic]

Seeing as the universe is supposedly infinite, there is an actual moon made of cheese somewhere out there

[remote latch]

hmm .. if someone discarded a big chunk of cheese out of the space station .. would it orbit the earth ?

[carmine relic]

If you throw it hard enough, yeah!

[remote latch]

there's your possibility of a moon of cheese .. small .. but orbital

[carmine relic]

May or may not contain delicious debris from previous launches!

[remote latch]

space born bacteria as well possibly

[carmine relic]

I don't think bacteria would survive, unless it's like a tardigrade or something

Nevermind, googled it, it can survive. I am absolutely disgusted that even the cold void of space can't clean something of it

[limber cave]

Just needs radiation resistance.

[abstract rover]

my favourite planet is the one im going to when elongated muskrat makes his space empire

[carmine relic]

I wanna visit another star! Though, that increases the horrifying chance of finding aliens

[abstract rover]

visiting other stars is a dream of mine as well

[carmine relic]

If I become an actual scientist, will you be the first pilot?

[lost tiger]

i think it'd be cool to meet aliens

chances they would probably take some prisoners to study them, possibly attempt at learning to communicate first hopefully which would be an interesting interaction imo

[carmine relic]

I figure we'd just talk/communicate first before anything actually happens. It took a few decades for our probes to drift so far way, so having a living being from the other doing the same would be borderline impossible

[lost tiger]

yah

[carmine relic]

Then nobody gets their insides ripped out!

[abstract rover]

yep and we only recently got a probe into interstellar space

what if it runs into PALIA?!

😳

[carmine relic]

Paliens

Eris what does this mean

[buoyant heath]

Hi Eris

Wait, am I late

[abstract rover]

inb4 palia is a real planet and only s6 knows about it

it would honestly be cool if the story of palia was actually about aliens and humans going to some other star system

i'd geek out over that

[carmine relic]

Wait until you realize what heavily modded KSP turns into

[vast wyvern]

ROFL, it means nothing, haha

[carmine relic]

Sounds quite suspicious coming from a moon that may or may not have aliens on it!

[worthy rose]

paliens even!

[ocean stone]

Wait...wait....is it
..could it be?

Moon cheese!?!

[cinder temple]

Cheesecake-based cakes shaped like moonphases... 📝 Any other ideas for the essential Palian kitchen?

[carmine relic]

Don't forget the other conspiracy of mine that #🍜│food-and-noms is just a source the devs get food ideas from

[ocean stone]

What is this the first time I'm hearing of this conspiracy Greg!

[ocean stone]

Chapaa salt and pepper shakers, or whatever seasonings equivalents lol

[cinder temple]

That would be really cute - or could be. Two Chapaa posed identically, or two sculpted playing in a pile, but able to be separated for shaking purposes?

[carmine relic]

Chappa breadbox

[ocean stone]

Omg why didn't I think of a bread box!!!

[cinder temple]

Because you were thinking outside the box, Cinna.

[carmine relic]

I'm pretty sure chappa are a good deal bigger than a loaf of bread, so that's extra nice

[worthy rose]

not dwarf chapaa

they could only be boxes for miniature bread

[carmine relic]

This planet talk reminds me, I should do some experiments. Hm. Pray I smash some planets together just right!

[ocean stone]

Omg mini bread boxes so presh

[peak escarp]

I would love to wish everyone to a Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a an amazing, loving time with family and friends on New Year’s Eve and Day! I would also love to wish every single one of you to a happy and healthy year Palians! I cannot wait to see what this year will bring to us all!

With my luck, you're not joking.

it would be too cruel

[remote latch]

way too cruel

[carmine relic]

Oh man, this is huge. I only know how to say half the characters in this

I think that is an electrical diagram.

I'm pretty sure it is

Whoever wrote that is seriously gonna blow a fuse

OKAY! WHO MADE THIS GEM?!

I ... also just realized browsing the #🌠│official-art channel's food announcements is me just stalking my future cooking victims...

[bright forge]

[flat owl]

that's one way to put it lol

[urban sparrow]

I'm the person Chef Ramsey kicks out of the kitchen and makes it no longer a nightmare. 😄

[lunar tundra]

Everytime I see a discord notification I get so hopeful for a game date update

[worthy rose]

my chansey coin finally came in

[urban sparrow]

Nope, just me, sorry to disappoint!

[lunar tundra]

Lol, never a disappointment to see people chatting in here

[ocean stone]

One day it will be!!!

Wait a tick why am I just now noticing

[carmine relic]

YOOO THE PARTY CHAPPA EMOJI SI REAL

[ocean stone]

[carmine relic]

[worthy rose]

[ocean stone]

I wonder if that's what WhoaNonstop was on about

Did we crack the code?!?!

[marble hedge]

Aquarius, Libra, Aquarius, Pisces, Aquarius, Libra, Aquarius.... no clue what it could mean, though

[bright forge]

ALAPALA

ALPHA 👀 ?

PALIA?

[peak escarp]

Not yet!

[bright forge]

[peak escarp]

My first time seeing the party Chapaa emoji! It’s so cute!

Does someone know how one gets chosen for alpha?

Or is it just like random?

[bright forge]

I don't know if creator is known to all but I have seen it before as part of my birthday gift.

[topaz path]

11071112110711

[bright forge]

Yes.... but actually no

[marble hedge]

You sign up on the website, and hope.

Theoretically, pre-alpha players are auto selected to alpha, but I have no proof of that

[carmine relic]

I have no idea

[topaz path]

https://palia.com/

[peak escarp]

I did it via the website and through the Discord last year!

[bright forge]

You guys know what would be funny?

If Wippit got in this time but PaSSionTiger did not. I mean it would be funny but I hope you guys will not be separated this time

[marble hedge]

We already have that planned if it happens.

She'll be posting John Travolta memes where he's looking for me.

[bright forge]

[bright forge]

I hope you guys both get in this time.

[marble hedge]

I mean, if S6 wants a year of me posting non-alpha spouse updates....

[peak escarp]

It would be nice if everyone got in!
I would really love to experience the tester life!

[bright forge]

Yes but ac... Well it would be nice but some may not be ready to see Palia yet let me put it that way.

[peak escarp]

Wishing everyone the best of luck!

[bright forge]

I will send you all my luck 🍀

[peak escarp]

Awe, thank you so much!

I will send all of my luck to you too!

[bright forge]

I have so much fun theory crafting and looking for secrets here I would not mind not getting in. (but pls don't take away our dear wiki bot pls)

[peak escarp]

Wiki bot?

[bright forge]

It's a person here that's all I will say to not make myself look silly.

[worthy rose]

dont worry I'll bribe s6 with a bunch of slim jims to let everyone in

[carmine relic]

You'll meet the Wiki bot the moment you ask any sort of Palia-related question

[marble hedge]

If there was one person who should be selected for alpha, it should be Xrystal.

[carmine relic]

You too, Wippit!

[marble hedge]

I'm nothing special. She's way beyond me.

[bright forge]

I know that and I hope it will happen but at the same time.....

[peak escarp]

LOL!

Omg I haven’t had those in years lol

[topaz path]

try pixie sticks. might work better

[carmine relic]

What about Rin?

[worthy rose]

don't worry I got like 20 or 30 of them there's no wya they can say no

[peak escarp]

I hope we all get in.

[ocean stone]

[marble hedge]

Obligatory "there's no sugar in pixie sticks."

[peak escarp]

Omg I haven’t had pixie sticks in yearsssss!

[carmine relic]

WHAT

[topaz path]

pocky too. pocky is the best

[peak escarp]

Man I hate pocky now lol

It’s so boring to eat for me now haha

[topaz path]

all pocky flavors?

[peak escarp]

I love the dipping ones!

With the actual cream

More fresh for me hahaha

Speaking of food, I cannot wait to see what other goodies we will get in Palia!

[worthy rose]

do you guys eat your pixie sticks with or without the shell

[peak escarp]

I love it so much when games include food!

I’m such a fan of the cooking mini games!

[urban sparrow]

What are ... pixie sticks?

[worthy rose]

basically, sugar tube

[peak escarp]

Without…
I don’t think we are allowed to eat the tube

It’s paper hah

[urban sparrow]

Ah, this place is too wholesome for how I'd consume just straight sugar...

[worthy rose]

https://images.vat19.com/pixy-stix-exotic-flavors/pixy-stix-from-mexico-flavors.jpg

[urban sparrow]

Ooooooh! Those would colour black tea really well!

Right, sorry, not allowed to talk about how I consume sugar.

[peak escarp]

Sugar is one of my weakness

[urban sparrow]

Question: Burned or unburned?

Cause I could make some palia themed cup-cakes... but ...

[peak escarp]

I mean like candy, cakes, etc.

I’m confused by your question

[peak escarp]

That sounds so cute!

[carmine relic]

Isn't burnt sugar caramel?

[urban sparrow]

I ... might try tomorrow then ... pray for my kitchen. Last time it did this fun firey thing.

[peak escarp]

Oh my lol
Good luck!

Last time I burnt something in the kitchen it was popcorn LOL

That was years ago lol

I wonder if there will be popcorn in Palia!

[tight lake]

once, I shoved cornflakes and chocolate into the microwave

It came out burned

[carmine relic]

I once burnt noodles because I didn't notice they can go from brown to black in 5-7 seconds.

[tight lake]

boiling noodles?

[carmine relic]

Frying

Got some taffy/candy, the day is far better already.

[urban sparrow]

I lit a poptart on fire in the microwave, strawberry burns blue and pink. Very pretty.

[carmine relic]

A grand moment of chemistry teachings right there

I wonder when Alpha is coming? Hmm

[wind ibex]

in less than 6 months...

[carmine relic]

Ah right./

[remote latch]

Libra + 167 = Pisces ? ..... or .. simply 2 islands and an oil rig or 2 whales and a shark on a large body of water

[wispy jay]

well 6 months then

do some other thing more proactive so when alpha is released those who are selected will be busy playing

[abstract rover]

whoanonstop

[carmine relic]

Maybe I can learn actual rocket science!

[carmine relic]

Ok I'm back!

I also got struck by another midnight realization! So things are going really good!

[fallen summit]

Thats' great to hear Gambit. Also happy timezones everyone!

[carmine relic]

Aye!

[warm plover]

wooo

i hate those midnight realisations
at 6 am last night i got inspired to write something like c mon i want to sleep

[carmine relic]

Why not make a throw-away Discord server with only you in it, dumping the written stuff in there?

Crap, now I'm remembering the many lost concepts/characters/stories I've forgotten

[carmine relic]

I guess I'll throw them onto the pile of "Things to take care of later"!

Though... are they truly forgotten if I remember their names and a general description of em? Hmm.

[spring rivet]

Palutations!

[carmine relic]

Good Disco-day!

With 4-5 days already passed, we're at least 1% done with 2022!

Though. I wonder. What'll we do with the Winter emojis when winter is over?

[spring rivet]

it's always winter

[carmine relic]

Oh no

why chair, is that a crown atop the chair?

[gloomy prism]

so any news on when we can see more on the game feels like after tralier was last i heard of it

[remote latch]

No news on any more game play .. but they did give us a glimpse of an early mining animation .. and of course the chance of getting into the alpha will be coming up in the next few months all going well of course

Did you see any of the info in #🌠│official-art or the answers in #❓│old-team-answers-alpha ?

[gloomy prism]

thats cool then this type of mmo sound interesting love the building and farming games im old havest moon is my jam haha

[remote latch]

Did you have a look at the pre-alpha blog ?

[gloomy prism]

i didnt but illl have a peek ty

nice animtion looks good reminds me of gw2 a little

[abstract rover]

[bright forge]

morning friend

[abstract rover]

how are u perin

[bright forge]

or you mean Game Master but in that case it's also me

[bright forge]

In the school listening to some boring stuff

How are you friend?

[river cradle]

[abstract rover]

working. also boring stuff lmao

[bright forge]

here take a hug

[river cradle]

i was expecting something more pink... let me "un-lily"

[abstract rover]

🐀

[bright forge]

try out ladybird

see

it's more "pink"

[abstract rover]

hmm

[river cradle]

i quite liked the legacy she/her, but it somehow never got picked over chuu

[bright forge]

legacy pronounce roles are the best and you can't get them no more so they are rare.

[remote latch]

chuu/chapaa pretty much overrides I think

but not the flowers

[bright forge]

Yeah but flowers are purple-pink and red-pink but not pink-pink and that's a problem

[remote latch]

yep alas .. I think pink pink is for server boosters

[abstract rover]

boring

i wanna be pink :/

[river cradle]

i just wish there was a way to play whatever state the game is in right now. for someone with massive social anxiety literally all my social interactions besides occasionally seeing my mom and brother are online.

and the alternatives for "social space" games either lack inbuilt gameplay loops or are more or less traditional MMOs that are all more or less formulaic and basically give you various degrees of freedom playing dressup and chat AFK in major cities and that's it

[remote latch]

Unfortunately they want to have a really good version of the game out there for people to play .. but the closed alpha is practically around the corner .. so 🤞

[river cradle]

i am not really hopeful

i didn't get into the early one, and in my entire life, i've only ever won a single raffle/giveaway type thing ever

[remote latch]

hope for the best but expect the worst It is a low chance - although we haven't been given tester numbers yet so how low a chance would depend on that

well most people didn't get in the early one .. with a 1 in 80 chance .. ( 1.4k out of 80k ) .. but Amelia did say it would be more people than before but we also have more people ( 117k ) than before

[bright forge]

If you want to hang out this place is my favourite chat in the whole internet.

And I will also not get in so I will be here.

[remote latch]

if its as busy here with info as it was when pre-alpha was around .. there could be quite a bit of info coming to those of us that miss the chance

and more info .. means more chatting as we theorise what else could be added

but I understand .. my brother only socialises online .. and I am not the most comfortable around people in the real world I've been here I think every day since day 2 It's the equivalent of being in game chatting with people .. just no visuals

[river cradle]

heh, social anxiety isn't AS bad online as it is IRL for me, but very active chats i can't quite follow in their entirety aren't ideal for me either, i always feel like "what if i missed something really important someone i like said, they must think i am an awful uncaring person" or "what if they're not doing well and i missed it and therefore failed to check in on them personally?"

i mainly hang out in little like ~20 people servers, but REALLY i am mainly DMing with people i've met on smaller servers before >.<

[bright forge]

I mean I play games with some folks from [ART]

[bright forge]

tbh this chat is 15 folks at the same time max. We come in shifts you now hehe

[river cradle]

i just feel lonely most of the time and talk with like, the same 2-3 people when they're around

[bright forge]

You will always be welcome here

[remote latch]

some days I can count the number of people I see on my fingers

[bright forge]

I talk here mostly with folks I meet at first days

[remote latch]

most of us lurk and jump in when something surfaces .. so there will be busy times when the chat scrolls by and other times when there can be hardly a word in 3 hours

[abstract rover]

same here, about the social anxiety thing

[bright forge]

Xrystal, Gambit, Kin, Rin, Berry, Jules, Csr, Nish, FairBlood, Odd-ball, Simuel, Talia, cinna, dadjoke, Wipit and wipit's wife, All mods, and some of testers. That's most of the crew (If I miss someone I'm sorry and remembr I love you all)

[buoyant heath]

Hi, so what's going on here?

[bright forge]

Nothing friend

[buoyant heath]

So nice of you to mention me, Perin

[bright forge]

How could I forgot someone like you my friend?

[buoyant heath]

It would be literally impossible. I'm unforgettable.

[river cradle]

yeah, it's not easy....

[river cradle]

questions is... is that a good or a bad thing? 😛

[bright forge]

In the good way unforgettable

[buoyant heath]

No way to know. I've never been forgotten, so there's nothing to compare it to.

[bright forge]

How log you been here may I ask? 😅

[remote latch]

[buoyant heath]

I was brought to life by the creation of this discord. I don't remember anything before that.

[bright forge]

I mean were you here 30 mins ago?

[buoyant heath]

(especially if any debt collectors come asking)

Nope!

[bright forge]

Ok jokes aside sorry for missing your name specific. I love you friend and tbh I mentioned I know testers in there so you were there 😅 .

[buoyant heath]

Almost 7 months of Paliacord for me

[remote latch]

was that your first post here ?

[bright forge]

I mean for other peoples that are not here so much anymore Nomi my first friend here, Sane, Rezilia, MiniMango, Anastasia...and many more great people and all of [ART] people of course they are the best.

[remote latch]

Yeah I think there are some people that got into the pre-alpha and feel uncomfortable chatting now in case they give something away

[buoyant heath]

According to search, yeah

[bright forge]

Yeah that's the case for some of them for sure

[buoyant heath]

I think MiniMango has just been busy

[bright forge]

I looked up my posts here and I posted in this chat two days after I joined. I mean if someone remember 2h meme chat delay yes it was partly my fault.

For the lurkers out there and any newcomers. Welcome to Palia : Auni's Mail Service. Auni is looking forward to meeting us, I could even say excited ( ) so much so that he is browsing through the channels himself acquiring useful documents that you may want to take a look out . So look out for information from the official channels. Auni will likely visit the #❔│game-faqs,#❓│old-team-answers-alpha and #🌠│official-art channels first and then maybe the currently archived #❓│old-team-answers-pre-alpha channel, lots of humans in there. He will be fascinated to know that the #❔│game-faqs also includes links to the documents compiled by Rin and Vlad, members of our human community. Once you have read through these documents you should know what we know about Palia : The Game so far. Auni will hopefully remember that there is a Pre-Alpha blog on the Palia site that can be accessed via the #📢│palia-news channel or the bottom of the Palia site itself and will send that along to you too. If you sign up and fill in the surveys I am sure Auni will gladly deliver these to the developers so that you get a chance to visit him and his family and friends. Again, welcome and we hope you enjoy waiting with us .

[celest maple]

how long is the day and night Cycle in Palia?

[fallen summit]

I don't think we know that yet.

[bright forge]

1h for now I think? but nothing is set in stone for now.

[celest maple]

so 30 for day 30 for night?

[remote latch]

15 mins per equal division - let me look

1 hour of real time = 24 hours in the game. So you'll have 15 minutes of morning, 15 minutes of afternoon, 15 minutes of evening, 15 minutes of night. This was calculated by Roan and confirmed by Bourbon, one of the devs via a ^ symbol on the next line.

[celest maple]

ahhh ok thank you!

[remote latch]

But as Perin said this isn't set in stone as that was from a Q & A session in June. By the time release happens there may be some tweaks to that as the various testers report their findings in that area

[celest maple]

any estimated release dates?

your release year

[remote latch]

we haven't got anything beyond a time frame of less than 2 and a half years. It's likely an approximation at this stage though.

[celest maple]

Ah ok makes sence i wish there was a public road map haha

or milestone

[abstract rover]

well they're still early on, any roadmap they could make could easily be changed drastically at any point

so its tough to have one

[remote latch]

They don't want us to see anything short of definites so what we get revealed to us is the best we can get at the moment

[celest maple]

well theres a option to have a roadmap of things you know your going to add and a Wishlist road map of things you want to add

yeah true

[remote latch]

Keep that in mind and when they open #851872239435644928 at the end of the month you can ask if thats possible.

Day 5 of Early 2022. Status: no alpha

[carmine relic]

As someone cursed waiting for KSP2, I can feel your pain on this

[ocean stone]

When is KSP2

[carmine relic]

According to the Steam page, 🔜

[abstract rover]

according to steam, the release date is yes

[ocean stone]

Gotcha

[abstract rover]

aaaaaaaaaaaaa i hate work so muuuuuuuuch

its ok tho, i only plan on working for a couple years. i have bigger plans in the works :)

[celest maple]

this game still hasnt released? 🤣

[fallen summit]

nope, not yet

[fallen summit]

now we're waiting for the closed alpha that will most likely start in the first half of this year

[carmine relic]

Which could be any moment.

[remote latch]

okay maybe any month now

eyes Amelia no pressure Amelia .. no pressure .. you have time

[carmine relic]

I don't know what it is, but I got the slight feeling something is happening.

[remote latch]

looks at lonnnng list of devs online hmm

nah that's fooled me before

[carmine relic]

WhoaNonStop is typing...

[remote latch]

[carmine relic]

I'm surprised he doesn't just make us do a gigantic horrifying "solve for x" problem to get the date

[burnt elm]

Oh god that’d be terrible

[remote latch]

Looking at the two wacky statements so far I arrived at the same solution give or take ..

[carmine relic]

Wacky statements?

[remote latch]

'one of these numbers is special' and then a bunch of astrological symbols last night/early this morning depending on your time frame

[carmine relic]

Oh, that!

But all those symbols landed on the later half months of the year. Unless we change "month number" to "day number", I don't think we'll get anything big.

[remote latch]

Depends on how you look at it 🙂 I asked him a question in response so waiting to see if he answers it

[carmine relic]

Whoa

I also wonder if it actually is a date, but in reverse/on the opposite side of the year, but eh. He did say just one of the numbers

[remote latch]

I'll message you my thoughts

[carmine relic]

Aye!

[abstract rover]

it actually means nothing. its all a joke. palia is fake. you all been trolled

[remote latch]

yeah .. you never know . Whoa might be the troll on the dev team

[abstract rover]

he is

[carmine relic]

He absolutely is.

[abstract rover]

we already knew this

ever since our epic duel in discord chat

which we still have yet to resolve

thats right, i havent given up

my power level is over 9000 now, Whoa

[remote latch]

But is it strong enough to battle Whoa

[abstract rover]

perhaps

we shall see when the time comes

[carmine relic]

Just skip the Whoa fight to optimize the run

[abstract rover]

lol

[remote latch]

Oh .. he's not the boss just one of the minions you can avoid ?

[abstract rover]

true, i did still challenge S6 by saying i'd do my best to break the game

that is the true battle

WhoaNonstop is simply a stepping stone

[carmine relic]

Maybe? I dunno. I'm not a Palia expert

[remote latch]

rofl

[carmine relic]

Doesn't help I'm now stuck in a complete blurry shatter of time, space, and thinking resulting in me having no clue what's going on but somehow solving things

[remote latch]

Isn't that how most geniuses live ?

[abstract rover]

you just described theoretical physics

[carmine relic]

Crap, I'm not ready to be smart!

[lone crane]

What scam links are being posted, links to a different game called friendia or Buddyia or something

[carmine relic]

Never heard of those kinds. It's almost always fake Discord Nitro links, where Discord is misspelled

[remote latch]

yeah I've only seen discord ones

[abstract rover]

um Palia is actually pronounced "P-ay-al-ayl-alal-lialia"

[carmine relic]

It's actually pronounced Jif

[lone crane]

Yeah how many jifts you get for Christmas

[abstract rover]

It's actually pronounced "ge-ro-ni-mo"

[carmine relic]

It's Levy-oh-sa

[remote latch]

not levi oh saaaa

[surreal crest]

Hełło!

[carmine relic]

AH, A CHAIR!

[raw quarry]

If chair gets a partner, would he become, like, a bench or something?

[ocean stone]

Like, a loveseat?

[surreal crest]

OH MY GOD, THE GAMBIT!

dear god no

[ocean stone]

Chair does have a Mrs Chair

Or something of that sort

[carmine relic]

Watch your chessboards, I'm gonna do a cool as hell move

[surreal crest]

If you mash 2 people together, would they become one big human? or big fleshy mess?

[ocean stone]

Yes

[surreal crest]

yes I do

[carmine relic]

Pretty sure a chair goes with a table. It sounds right

[worthy rose]

if I can't throw car batteries into the ocean in palia I wont play

[remote latch]

not nish the second today ?

[surreal crest]

A chair goes with everything
THE Chair goes only with Mrs Chair

[surreal crest]

nish nish the fish

[carmine relic]

Ah. Hmm. Chair, thoughts on Rocking Chairs?

[remote latch]

Are rocking chairs, chairs that like rock and roll ?

[surreal crest]

they rock!

[vast wyvern]

wat

[carmine relic]

Ok. So, you're a Chair... where's the Chfire, Chearth, and Chwind?

[remote latch]

hi Eris

[carmine relic]

Also hello Eris!

[vast wyvern]

howdy

[worthy rose]

make it so

[vast wyvern]

hahahahahaha, nah

[abstract rover]

it charges up the eels

[worthy rose]

think about the eels!

[surreal crest]

🔋 ➡️ 🌊

[vast wyvern]

😆

damn, I didn't think about the eels...

[carmine relic]

Don't give the fish car batteries. There's already enough vehicles crashed into bodies of water, and all they usually need to restore it is a battery. Fish are also terrible drivers, so let's not enable them to drive on our roads

[abstract rover]

nobody does

nobody ever thinking about the eels... always forgotten

[carmine relic]

Because eels are one letter away from evil

[vast wyvern]

eevil

[abstract rover]

weevil

[fallen summit]

why, what have to poor eels done

[carmine relic]

Evil, probably

[worthy rose]

we need to recharge them. They cant do it on their own

hence the batteries

[fallen summit]

of course of course. Just asked why they'd be considered (we)evil

[worthy rose]

o i c. They are innocent and I will protect them

[carmine relic]

Remember that one phrase or something. If it's got a healthbar, it's an enemy. Probably

[remote latch]

Ah .. but do creatures in Palia have a health bar if we don't ?

[carmine relic]

Heck if I know.

[remote latch]

but that rock did in yesterdays animation .. so maybe they do

[vast wyvern]

I don't know either

oh damn, wait, I do

[remote latch]

[carmine relic]

Considering how many times a rock has ruined my day, they definitely are enemies to me

[surreal crest]

that rock animation screams "HULK SMASH!"

[vast wyvern]

I mean who hasn't kicked a rock before?

[surreal crest]

a rock or the Rock

[carmine relic]

Rock and stone!

[surreal crest]

ROCK AND STONE!

[burnt elm]

…not pebbles though right? I mean who minds a little pebble in your shoe every once in a while

[carmine relic]

Pebbles are also bad

Have you seen what a single pebble does to the surface of the moon? That's what I thought

[abstract rover]

I know that I know nothing.

[shut forge]

ok its 2022 when is palia gonns come out again?

[abstract rover]

2 1/2 years

patience, young padawan

[remote latch]

2022 is when Alpha is arriving .. all things going well

[carmine relic]

Just timewarp to 2025.

[abstract rover]

and for pete's sake, people, read the important channels

they'll answer that question quicker than chat can

[remote latch]

actually the release information was only in #❓│old-team-answers-pre-alpha and updated in this channel and in Vlad's document .. not in the main channels

[carmine relic]

So how do I sign up for alpha

[abstract rover]

still, if people did some basic reading before asking they'd know

[remote latch]

looks at roles wonders how you got THAT role

[abstract rover]

especially the "is this game out yet" crew

the answer to that one is painfully obvious

[ocean stone]

who is pete

[remote latch]

sometimes it is easier to ask if there is an active group of people online than running around the channels 🙂

[ocean stone]

Yes

[abstract rover]

no i just think people are lazy lol

[ocean stone]

Not everyone is very familiar with using discord. It can be a pretty daunting overwhelming interface

[remote latch]

some may be 🙂 other's sensible and what cinna said

[carmine relic]

I wonder if we'll get a bot that shows up if someone says "release date"

[remote latch]

And then there is this ... - For the lurkers out there and any newcomers. Welcome to Palia : Jina's Research Lab. Jina is working on her human thesis and is currently browsing through the channels acquiring knowledge that you may find useful. She is starting with the #❔│game-faqs,#❓│old-team-answers-alpha and #🌠│official-art channels first and then maybe the currently archived #❓│old-team-answers-pre-alpha channel, lots of human interaction in there to flesh out her thesis. She will be delighted to know that the #❔│game-faqs also includes links to the documents compiled by Rin and Vlad, members of our human community. Once you have read through these documents you should know what we know about Palia : The Game so far. Jina has also browsed through the Pre-Alpha blog for further insights on the humans which you can find on the Palia site that can be accessed via the #📢│palia-news channel or the bottom of the Palia site itself. If you sign up and fill in the surveys I am sure Jina would love the chance to meet you and your friends in person. Again, welcome and we hope you enjoy waiting with us .

[ocean stone]

No need to dunk on new potential pals

[abstract rover]

we need a bot like that

[ocean stone]

is what it'll say;p

[remote latch]

it's called Kaede 🙂 but is only active later on

[abstract rover]

i dunk on everyone tho, you know this

😎

[carmine relic]

Dunk on yourself then

[ocean stone]

But new folks just passing on by don't know that

[abstract rover]

bet

[remote latch]

Anyway ... critter vote hype soon .. or crafting info hype soon . .. or something else Amelia has to surprise us with soon
