01:21 <_Sticky_> i presume she is on a public machine so cant install an irc client
01:22 <Stempo> nope :(
01:22 <_Sticky_> " but people like sticky dont give it out the turds"????wtf does that mean

01:25 <Stempo> lol
01:25 <_Sticky_> also known as an accident
01:25 <spidey> indeed sticky
01:25 <Stempo> acutally it'd be a crash
01:25 <Stempo> an accident is like a tree falling over the road
01:25 <Stempo> a crash is human error
01:25 * Stempo learned that in Driver's Ed
01:25 <Stempo> lol

01:37 <_Sticky_> i used to play 1.6 i just cant hack source since headshots are so common i just die instantly
01:37 <kamp> maybe
01:37 <madmax|pt> heh, that was a possible counter-taunt on a "LAG"
01:37 * ghableska shrugs
01:37 <kamp> what'd you guys figure out last night about the tourney anyway?
01:37 <kamp> ljlcjnsadclkjndsakljcna
01:37 <Lucifer_arma> do I need to kick his butt all the way to Pizza Hut?
01:37 <ghableska> we figured out something?
01:37 <kamp> yea man
01:37 <kamp> figured it all out
01:37 <kamp> we're having 42 teams
01:37 <madmax|pt> Well, I think so. After all he said LAG
01:37 <kamp> who all play 42 games
01:37 <ghableska> heh. I must've missed that part :p
01:37 <kamp> and we'll have 42 champs
01:38 <ghableska> #g the answer to life the universe and everything
01:38 <_Sticky_> whats wrong with me saying lag??
01:38 <armabot> ghableska: the answer to life the universe and everything = 42

01:38 <Lucifer_arma> madmax|pt: you must be playing with some other Lucifer...

01:40 <kamp42> this sunday
01:40 <madmax|pt> Lucifer_arma: not that. I was once trying to figure out the perfect taunt against players who say "LAG!!11" often. You suggested "What the FUCK happened?" or something similar

01:40 <ghableska> yep
01:40 <kamp42> are you sure?
01:40 <Lucifer_arma> oh, heh

01:42 <kamp42> haha
01:42 <Lucifer_arma> slut
01:42 <kamp42> #whoreyou
01:42 <kamp42> :)
01:42 <spidey> Lucifer_arma, what email server would you suggest?
01:42 <Lucifer_arma> spidey: one that works
01:42 <kamp42> yep
01:42 <kamp42> that's usually best
01:42 <Lucifer_arma> they're all a pain in the ass to setup
01:43 <spidey> heh
01:43 <Lucifer_arma> do you need imap support?
01:43 <Lucifer_arma> wait, do you want to receive email, or just send mail?
01:43 <kamp42> that reminds me
01:44 <spidey> Lucifer_arma, just send atm
01:44 <Lucifer_arma> ok, postfix then
01:44 <kamp42> i need to figure out how to get pop support from my university webmail
01:44 <kamp42> everything in there is esoteric
01:44 <kamp42> it sucks
01:44 <Lucifer_arma> kamp42: ask your system administrator :)
01:44 <kamp42> they're esoteric as wel
01:44 <kamp42> they'll probably give me an answer like "we're working on it"
01:44 <kamp42> bastards
01:44 <kamp42> or "what version of opera are you using" as though that matters
01:44 <Lucifer_arma> if that's the answer they give you, it means you *can't* until they finish it
01:45 <kamp42> but they have it
01:45 <kamp42> i know it
01:45 <kamp42> i just need to scour the ufl site
01:45 <kamp42> anyway
01:45 <kamp42> i'm outtie

01:48 <spidey> Lucifer_arma, thanks :D
01:49 <Lucifer_arma> np :)
01:49 <Lucifer_arma> postfix is what sends mail from the wiki ;)
01:49 <spidey> heh
01:49 <spidey> needed something so phpbb2 wouldn't bitch about there being no mailserver to send email notifications
01:49 <spidey> :/
01:52 -!- zman [n=manuel@p508706D3.dip0.t-ipconnect.de] has quit [Connection timed out]
01:52 <_Sticky_> i thought post fix was that whole ab+c* thing
01:52 <_Sticky_> heh
01:53 <spidey> Lucifer_arma, is postfix smtp imap or pop3?
01:53 <Lucifer_arma> smtp, outgoing mail is always smtp
01:53 <Lucifer_arma> here's how it works, in general
01:53 <Lucifer_arma> you get an smtp server to send outgoing mail
01:53 <Lucifer_arma> it can receive mail, too
01:54 <Lucifer_arma> so you coud connect to my smtp server and send me mail (theoretically, practically I'd have to reconfigure it somewhat)
01:54 <Lucifer_arma> that mail would be put in /var/mail or somesuch place, and you'd need to read a mail spool to get it
01:54 <Lucifer_arma> KMail supports that :)
01:54 <Lucifer_arma> however, that's not a typical configuration anymore
01:54 <Lucifer_arma> so, instead, what you want is a server that people will connect to and retrieve their mail
01:55 <Lucifer_arma> so here comes pop3. You run a pop3 daemon and it takes mail that's stored in your user's mail directory and allows remote clients who authenticate to retrieve it
01:55 <Lucifer_arma> you follow?
01:55 <luke-jr_> pop3 sucks
01:56 <Lucifer_arma> so your basic mail server configuration for end-users requires two parts. It needs an smtp server to send mail to other servers and to receive mail from servers,
01:56 <Lucifer_arma> and it requires a pop3 daemon to allow clients to retrieve their own email
01:56 <luke-jr_> does not require pop3!!
01:56 <luke-jr_> I run my mail server 100% POP3-free
01:56 <Lucifer_arma> now, at some point, someone (I forget who, I want to blame microsoft for it), dreamed up imap
01:57 <luke-jr_> M$ just "extended" IMAP
01:57 <Lucifer_arma> imap is a protocol where the base assumption is that your mail stays on the mail server
01:57 <Lucifer_arma> it has some extra authentication, but afaik, still requires an smtp server to send mail
01:57 <Lucifer_arma> so you're still looking at having two servers
01:57 <Lucifer_arma> now, when you start looking at software to do these things, you find something a bit expected
01:58 <Lucifer_arma> you find smtp servers by themselves, and you find "mail server packages" that provide smtp, pop3, and sometimes imap components
01:58 <Lucifer_arma> those packages are also generally modular enough that you can plug in whatever smtp server you want
01:58 <Lucifer_arma> for example, I used to run courier
01:58 <Lucifer_arma> courier at that time required your own smtp server, and I used postfix for that
01:59 <Lucifer_arma> nowadays, you can get courier in flavors where you can still use your own smtp server, or you can use the one courier provides (which is a postfix server anyway, go figure)
02:03 <luke-jr_> I use Courier for IMAP
02:03 <luke-jr_> it sucks tho
02:03 <luke-jr_> :d
02:04 <spidey> Lucifer_arma, link on using postfix?

05:23 <GodTodd> any chemists in here?
05:23 <GodTodd> thought not :/
05:23 <GodTodd> heh
05:34 <Lucifer_arma> maybe
05:35 <Lucifer_arma> what's the problem?
05:35 <GodTodd> How many grams of phosphoric acid will form when 30.00 grams of tetraphosphorus decoxide reacts with 75.00 mL of water?
05:36 <Lucifer_arma> eek!
05:36 <Lucifer_arma> no chemistry!
05:36 <Lucifer_arma> heh
05:36 <GodTodd> heh
05:36 * GodTodd hates chemistry
05:36 <GodTodd> :/
05:37 <Lucifer_arma> chemical formulas for phosphoric acid and tetraphosphorus decoxide are ... ?
05:37 <GodTodd> it's P4O10 + 6H2O = 4H3PO4
05:37 <GodTodd> that's the reaction equation
05:38 <Lucifer_arma> so do two things
05:38 <GodTodd> if i knew how many mol H2O is in 75 mL then it's pretty easy
05:38 <Lucifer_arma> first, unbound the water, assume plenty of water, and figure it out
05:38 <Lucifer_arma> oh, really?
05:38 <Lucifer_arma> that's easy. mL is volume, right?
05:38 <GodTodd> right
05:38 <Lucifer_arma> volume * density = mass
05:39 <GodTodd> right
05:39 <Lucifer_arma> from mass you can convert to moles
05:39 <GodTodd> bah
05:39 <GodTodd> stfu :P
05:39 <GodTodd> heh

05:51 <Lucifer_arma> talk about branding man
05:51 <Lucifer_arma> er
05:52 <Lucifer_arma> talk about branding, man

05:52 <kamp42> i'm burning my tongue off
05:52 <luke-jr_> kamp42: if he was talking to you, he'd have said woman, not man
05:52 <kamp42> damn good tasting tea, though
05:52 <Lucifer_arma> problem is, World Tron Federation is perfect, if I didn't want to be such a dick about not having tron in there
05:52 <GodTodd> ok...for better or worse, i'm going with 41.55g H3PO4
05:53 <kamp42> luke-jr_: nah, kid
05:53 <luke-jr_> Federation is lame
05:53 <kamp42> honestly
05:53 <Lucifer_arma> oh come on, it's just one word away from World Wrestling Federation
05:53 <luke-jr_> Federation implies a loose connection
05:53 <kamp42> i don't see the point in being all cutesy about the name
05:53 <Lucifer_arma> SP will love it!
05:53 <kamp42> but w.e.
05:53 <luke-jr_> World Trickster Forces
05:53 <luke-jr_> :p
05:53 <luke-jr_> haha
05:53 <luke-jr_> I have an idea
05:53 <kamp42> here
05:54 <luke-jr_> just refer to it as WTF
05:54 <Lucifer_arma> ah oh
05:54 <luke-jr_> and let people guess
05:54 <kamp42> real tron fortress melee
05:54 <kamp42> rtfm
05:54 <Lucifer_arma> then people will only think of us when they ask Luke for help!
05:54 <kamp42> heh
05:54 <luke-jr_> just refer to it as WTF and let people guess the full name :)
05:54 <Lucifer_arma> I think if Regular Old Fortress League doesn't suit, we'll go with boring and move on
05:54 <GodTodd> #luke
05:54 <armabot> STFU baka noob?? RTFM?? ur lame or smth.
05:54 <Lucifer_arma> luke-jr_: then we'll become World Tron Federation
05:55 <Lucifer_arma> in the end, what really matters is that the league itself is good and people want to play in it, and the games are competitive
05:55 <Lucifer_arma> and the championship is worth winning
05:55 <Lucifer_arma> "bigger kamps to fry" comes to mind
05:56 <Lucifer_arma> or, we've got bigger prophets to crucify
05:56 <kamp42> what?
05:56 <luke-jr_> lol
05:56 <kamp42> bigger kamps to fry?
05:56 <luke-jr_> you want to crucify a prophet?
05:56 <luke-jr_> please pick the protest-ant/Feeneyite spamming me
05:56 <kamp42> chances are something bad would happen to him anyway
05:57 <luke-jr_> HAHA
05:57 <kamp42> smothing bad always happens to prophets
05:57 <Lucifer_arma> well, tab finished copying
05:57 <luke-jr_> you would make his spams so much more interesting if you emailed him as "Lucifer"
05:57 <Lucifer_arma> ok, so three choices
05:57 <Lucifer_arma> Regular Old Fortress League
05:57 <Lucifer_arma> Armagetron Fortress League
05:57 <luke-jr_> The last 40 years of the Apostasy, 1967-2007, are represented by the 40 year trial of Israel in the desert when it was under attack by serpents. Only a few survived and were saved, the rest were destroyed. The next 40 years of the Great Monarch which are about to come to pass, is symbolized in the scripture by the conquest of King Joshua into Israel, which happened in the 40 year generation after Moses.
05:57 <luke-jr_>
05:57 <luke-jr_> Just some prophetic and symbolic insight for the faithful.
05:57 <luke-jr_>
05:57 <Lucifer_arma> Armagetron Fortress Federation
05:57 <luke-jr_> Papal Office
05:58 <Lucifer_arma> or we try to come up with something that's free of both Tron and FOrtress
05:58 <kamp42> i like how all the css resources online are dated like february 2000
05:58 <kamp42> or march 2002
05:58 * luke-jr_ wonders where this guy finds so much free time
05:58 <kamp42> nothing recent
05:58 <Lucifer_arma> which matters if we want to consider branching out later into other game styles
05:58 <Lucifer_arma> luke-jr_: ever hear of scripts?
05:58 <luke-jr_> Lucifer_arma: nah, scripts can't do this stuff
05:59 <kamp42> cinnamon tea
05:59 <Lucifer_arma> #eightball can scripts be used to simulate preaching?

05:59 <kamp42> good stuff

05:59 <Lucifer_arma> so last question, does it matter if fortress is in the name?

06:14 <luke-jr_> installing Vista is an error :D
06:14 <Lucifer_arma> of course
06:14 <Lucifer_arma> primary reason I don't have a virus scanner is because they all fail to detect windows properly
06:14 <kamp> HAR
06:17 <kamp> anyway
06:17 <kamp> anything else that needs to be set up as far as the tournament goes?
06:17 <kamp> besides the league name?
06:18 <Lucifer_arma> oh yeah, lots of stuff :)
06:18 <luke-jr_> kamp: how's your PHP?
06:18 <Lucifer_arma> need to work out how many games we'll run in July and how the playoffs will be
06:18 <kamp> nonexistant
06:18 <Lucifer_arma> we'll use the wiki for setting up rosters. Once the deadline passes, we'll lock the roster pages
06:19 <kamp> ah
06:19 <kamp> when's the deadline?
06:19 <Lucifer_arma> TBD
06:19 <kamp> which servers are participating?
06:19 <kamp> they should probably start running ads
06:19 <Lucifer_arma> ok, figure 4 weeks in July of games, then a short playoff and mini-championship in August
06:19 <Lucifer_arma> we need a name before we can advertise anything
06:19 <kamp> armagetron fortress league
06:19 <Lucifer_arma> also, we're trying to get an alternate network of servers setup that'll have their own master server
06:19 <kamp> there
06:20 <kamp> ah, i'd read about that
06:21 <Lucifer_arma> so, we need pages made on the wiki, but not yet pushed to the front
06:21 <kamp> luke-jr_: why do you ask?
06:21 <luke-jr_> I imagine there will be *some* PHP stuff for it XD
06:21 <Lucifer_arma> we need the rules we'll use, the physics/game rules config files (server admins should drop them in and use their own server_info.cfg)
06:21 <kamp> yea
06:22 <Lucifer_arma> I'd like to do it just using the wiki as much as possible, but any php coding should try to be in the form of mediawiki extensions
06:22 <kamp> so you need resources for teams, general rules, and resources for server admins
06:22 <Lucifer_arma> pretty much, yeah
06:22 <kamp> what do the teams need to know
06:22 <Lucifer_arma> I was just going to use my paypal account for actual joining fees, which are TBD, but don't go into effect until the fall season
06:22 <kamp> which day of the week would they be playing anyway?
06:22 <Lucifer_arma> TBD :)
06:22 <kamp> heh
06:22 <kamp> well
06:23 <Lucifer_arma> why don't you go make a July schedule for us? :)
06:23 <Lucifer_arma> here's what I've got in mind for the schedule
06:23 <Lucifer_arma> we create 4 time slots in which we'll schedule games that cover the whole 24 hours
06:23 <kamp> assuming they play on say, wednesday or thursday, then you can send out e-mail notifications on mondays
06:23 <kamp> ?
06:23 <kamp> what?
06:23 <Lucifer_arma> we try to make sure teams play in time slots that match up with their timezones as much as possible
06:23 <kamp> ah
06:23 <Lucifer_arma> so european teams will play at times europeans prefer
06:24 <Lucifer_arma> when we have to do euro-american matches, the home game will be at a time that favors the home team
06:24 <kamp> would the times be changed according to home/away?
06:24 <Lucifer_arma> so the american team, on their server, gets the time they like the most
06:24 <kamp> oh ok
06:24 <Lucifer_arma> when the american team goes to play the euro server, they have to play at the euro time
06:24 <kamp> sucks to be the other team
06:24 <kamp> the away team
06:24 <Lucifer_arma> we'll still try to get games scheduled into the "best" time slot possible for everyone playing!
06:25 <Lucifer_arma> it's just that we already know that won't be possible, we learned that lesson in the spoon
06:25 <Lucifer_arma> so when we have to make a decision, we decide in favor of the home team for the game
06:25 <kamp> all right
06:26 <kamp> so you just choose a couple times slots during the day
06:26 <kamp> fill those as needed
06:26 <kamp> got it
06:26 <kamp> still need to choose a day
06:26 <Lucifer_arma> so what we need right now is a wiki page that shows us the schedule, filled in with placekeepers pretty much
06:26 <kamp> yea
06:26 <Lucifer_arma> I'd like to pick 2 days
06:26 <kamp> enh
06:26 <Lucifer_arma> we'll favor one of those days, and we'll use the rest for games that bleed over for some reason
06:26 <Lucifer_arma> s/rest/other
06:26 <kamp> ah, all right
06:26 <kamp> and not the weekend
06:26 <kamp> please not the weekend
06:26 <Lucifer_arma> Sunday's taken by the ladle, Thursday's taken by KOTG
06:27 <kamp> tuesdays?
06:27 <kamp> or wednesdays
06:27 <Lucifer_arma> I say Tuesday, with Sunday as backup
06:27 <Lucifer_arma> the ladle's only once a month, after all
06:27 * kamp has no idea about these other competitions
06:27 <Lucifer_arma> we might want to favor Sunday for same-continent games
06:28 <kamp> well
06:28 <kamp> i'm vehemently against the weekend
06:28 <Lucifer_arma> or the other way
06:28 <kamp> because this is work
06:28 <kamp> and it's the weekend
06:28 <Lucifer_arma> well, then don't worry about shit that happens on the weekend yourself :)
06:28 <kamp> ah
06:28 <kamp> sounds good
06:28 <Lucifer_arma> we also need to work out the flow of information
06:28 <kamp> ?
06:28 <Lucifer_arma> see, we make a schedule, we try to send out notifications to people about upcoming games, we do all that, right?
06:29 <Lucifer_arma> now what?
06:29 <Lucifer_arma> here's what I think. We make a separate wiki page for each game, and put it on the calendar
06:29 <Lucifer_arma> this will be a *lot* of work for the regular season
06:29 <Lucifer_arma> it would be nice if we could automate that, luke-jr_ (hi there!) php guy
06:29 -!- [dlh] [n=[dlh]@c-76-19-206-67.hsd1.ma.comcast.net] has quit []
06:29 <Lucifer_arma> after the game, the teams go to the page for their game and post the results
06:29 <Lucifer_arma> after all the games, one of us goes in and collects the information and maintains the standing pages
06:30 <kamp> the pages stay?
06:30 <Lucifer_arma> pages stay, yes
06:30 <kamp> maybe a page for each week, rather than each game
06:30 <Lucifer_arma> for specific-game issues, we'll probably want to use those pages
06:30 <Lucifer_arma> that might be better
06:30 <Lucifer_arma> that will certainly scale better to more teams/games
06:30 <Lucifer_arma> how about for each day games are scheduled?
06:31 <kamp> wouldn't that come out the same?
06:31 <kamp> except that games that bleed over, or whatever
06:31 <kamp> ok
06:32 <Lucifer_arma> also, there are two tasks that need to be done right now, really
06:32 <Lucifer_arma> a notes page on the wiki, someone needs to go through the thread on the forums and put everyone's name where they've volunteered to help
06:32 <Lucifer_arma> I guess that's really just one task the way I put it
06:33 <kamp> yea
06:33 * GodTodd volunteers to watch the discussion :D
06:33 <GodTodd> heh
06:33 <kamp> thanks GodTodd
06:33 <Lucifer_arma> we need to figure out the deadline for the july season and for the fall season for registering
06:33 <Lucifer_arma> the fall season also needs a payment due deadline
06:33 <kamp> july season
06:33 <GodTodd> always here to help kamp ;)
06:34 <kamp> since we're still working our way through it, we probably want at least a 3-4 weeks between the deadline for team registration and actual start of play
06:34 <kamp> i wish i had a calendar
06:34 <kamp> man i'm pissed at google calendar
06:35 <kamp> i got unlimited text messages
06:35 <kamp> and sms notifications aren't working
06:35 <kamp> registration deadline: June 11
06:35 <kamp> first game, july 3
06:36 <kamp> i guess, mini season, so only four teams, right?
06:36 <Lucifer_arma> there's a calendar on the competition hub page :)
06:36 <kamp> final, august 21
06:36 <Lucifer_arma> as many teams as sign up, but only 4 weeks of play
06:36 <kamp> oh
06:37 <kamp> so none of the play each team twice?
06:37 <Lucifer_arma> it won't be an "official" season, stats will be tracked (so we can collect data and write scripts to report on stats)
06:37 <Lucifer_arma> but not kept officially
06:37 <kamp> hmm
06:37 <Lucifer_arma> right, none of the play each team twice
06:37 <Lucifer_arma> just, as many games as are reasonable in the 4 weeks. It's to test our processes and get some teams started
06:37 <Your_mom_arma> a page for each game-> condensed into a weekly page after said week-> condensed into a season page after the regular season with tournament info added later
06:37 <Lucifer_arma> we should expect most of the teams that play the july season to sign up for the fall season
06:38 <kamp> Your_mom_arma: that makes sense
06:38 <luke-jr_> I propose #armagetron have its own team
06:39 <Lucifer_arma> it makes sense, but it is a lot of work. I was grimacing when I was thinking about how many pages would be needed to have one for each game
06:39 <GodTodd> i propose lame's a douche
06:39 <Lucifer_arma> also, if there's 100 games on a given day, the calendar on the wiki is going to fill up pretty badly
06:40 <Lucifer_arma> I propose GodTodd make his "lame" thing read "lame-jr" so we know who the fuck he's talking about
06:40 <Your_mom_arma> well you could just make a weekly page to start out with compress those into a season page
06:40 <kamp> luke-jr_: who would want to play with you?
06:40 <GodTodd> yeah...i should
06:40 <kamp> :P
06:40 <Lucifer_arma> yeah, that's what we're thinkign. :) The season page will be maintained weekly, and during the season it will provide current status report for people
06:41 <kamp> yea
06:41 <Lucifer_arma> at the end of the season, it'll just not be changed anymore and provide historical information :)
06:41 <kamp> what kind of stats would we be collecting
06:41 <kamp> (putting scheduling on hold for a sec)
06:41 <kamp> just team stats, or individual stats as well?
06:41 <Lucifer_arma> both, I was hoping, but collecting for individuals will be hard
06:41 <GodTodd> i propose lame-jr's a douche
06:41 <kamp> yea
06:41 <GodTodd> better? :D
06:42 <Lucifer_arma> we'd have to watch the games ourselves to get things like assists, fortress takes, etc.
06:42 <kamp> individual stats: kills, deaths, captures, points
06:42 <kamp> maybe we could make it the teams' responsibility, and their prerogative to decide whether or not to keep stats
06:42 <kamp> give out an mvp award at the end of the season
06:43 <Lucifer_arma> teams can certainly track their own stats, but I'd hate to see teams trying to game their stats
06:43 <kamp> but you can't be in the running, unless your stats are kept
06:43 <Your_mom_arma> idk about keeping track of individual player stats.
06:43 <Lucifer_arma> I was thinking an MVP award for each game, and each game MVP is an automatic nomination for the season
06:43 <kamp> yea Your_mom_arma, maybe we could just worry about this at the end of the whole shebang
06:43 <Lucifer_arma> we'd need to officiate to get player stats, or find a way to make the server collect them
06:43 <kamp> we can keep team stats
06:43 <Lucifer_arma> let's get team stats, though
06:44 <kamp> and when everything else is done, figure out individual stats
06:44 <Lucifer_arma> points each round, points per match, etc
06:44 <kamp> yea
06:44 <kamp> be interesting to see the differences between teams that are strong match finishers and whatnot
06:44 <kamp> heh
06:44 <Lucifer_arma> it would be nice to look at the championship contenders and say "<team 1> gave up an average of 60 points per match, while <team 2> only gave up an average of 20 points"
06:44 * Your_mom_arma proposes team stats per week then averaging them together for the season page
06:44 <kamp> figure out rpi ratings :)
06:45 <kamp> err
06:45 <kamp> for those that don't know about rpi, it's a college bball thing
06:45 <Lucifer_arma> at a certain level of team ability, the point spread should show the relative strengths/weaknesses of offense vs defense
06:45 <kamp> takes into account your team's record, the records of your opponents, and the records of your opponent's opponents
06:45 <Lucifer_arma> sounds like glicko-2
06:45 <kamp> what's glicko-2?
06:45 <Lucifer_arma> ask luke-jr_ (hi there!)
06:46 <kamp> blah
06:46 <Lucifer_arma> not that he can answer, but he's implemented it for arma logs! :)
06:46 <kamp> i'll just google it
06:46 <Lucifer_arma> maybe we can get him to modify it for rounds only and consider teams?
06:46 <Lucifer_arma> so how do we figure ranking?
06:46 <Lucifer_arma> there's no tie!
06:46 <kamp> similar to elo?
06:47 <Lucifer_arma> 'splain elo
06:47 <kamp> elo ratings
06:47 <kamp> used in chess
06:47 <Lucifer_arma> you know, we could make it 4 matches and allow ties
06:48 <kamp> i never understodd it, myself
06:48 <DrJoeTron> ew
06:48 <DrJoeTron> elo
06:48 <kamp> yea
06:48 <kamp> pretty much what i say
06:49 <kamp> i never rose much higher than 1000 myself
06:49 <kamp> which is pretty bad
06:49 <DrJoeTron> nooo
06:49 <DrJoeTron> im talking about the band
06:49 <kamp> ...
06:49 <DrJoeTron> electric light orchestra?
06:49 <kamp> all right
06:49 <kamp> oh
06:49 <kamp> never heard it
06:49 <DrJoeTron> good
06:49 <kamp> seen it a lot though
06:49 <kamp> the albums
06:49 <kamp> at spec's
06:50 <kamp> back to scheduling then
06:50 <kamp> the miniseason...
06:50 <Lucifer_arma> I don't think elo will work
06:50 <Lucifer_arma> too complicated :)
06:50 <kamp> we should lay down a law that registration for the preseason implies registration for the season
06:51 <Lucifer_arma> you mean registration for the july run implies registration for the fall?
06:51 <kamp> yea
06:51 <Lucifer_arma> no. :)
06:51 <kamp> why not?
06:51 <Lucifer_arma> The july run is free, the fall run will require teams to put up money
06:51 <Lucifer_arma> we might give a free run to the 'champion' in the summer, though
06:51 <kamp> well
06:52 <Lucifer_arma> the july thing is one-time, we won't do it next year unless there's real demand for it
06:52 <kamp> ah
06:52 <kamp> o
06:52 <kamp> k
06:52 <kamp> :)
06:52 <Lucifer_arma> it's for us to test, so when the real season starts, we know what we're doing (approximately) :)
06:53 <kamp> yea
06:53 <kamp> i get that
06:53 <kamp> maybe not quite that
06:53 <Lucifer_arma> I have to say, I like the idea of a game being 4 matches and allowing ties
06:53 <Lucifer_arma> any objection to allowing ties?
06:53 <kamp> imply that when they register for july that we expect them to register in the fall
06:53 <kamp> nah
06:53 <Lucifer_arma> when sorting out rank, we can always look at scores during the ties to sort them out :)
06:53 <kamp> yea
06:54 <kamp> head to head solves ties
06:54 <kamp> we can make it so every team has two home and two away games
06:54 <Lucifer_arma> during the summer?
06:54 <Lucifer_arma> or during the game?
06:54 <Lucifer_arma> where two matches are home and the other two are away?
06:54 <kamp> that'll *sorta* solve the fact that they're not playing two gaems against each team
06:54 <kamp> nah
06:54 <kamp> during the summer
06:55 <Lucifer_arma> hmmm, if we do that then we don't have to do two games per team
06:55 <kamp> exactly
06:55 <Lucifer_arma> because the away/home thing is sorted out
06:55 <Lucifer_arma> I mean during the fall too :)
06:55 <kamp> nah
06:55 <Lucifer_arma> but then we can't use away/home to resolve schedule conflicts
06:55 <kamp> we have more time and more leeway in the fall
06:55 <kamp> the original idea was good for the fall
06:55 <Lucifer_arma> the real question is, is it more fair to play 2 separate home/away games, or to play 2 matches home and 2 away in the same game?
06:56 <kamp> the first
06:56 <GodTodd> ok...chem is done...now i need to research john edwards :/
06:56 <kamp> the second brings up strange questions
06:56 <Lucifer_arma> I don't know if I agree, but I really like home/away games, so we can go with that :)
06:56 <Your_mom_arma> former presidential canidate GodTodd?
06:56 <kamp> like connection issues (hope not, but you never know), fatigue ( i guess), some other things
06:56 <GodTodd> yep
06:56 <Lucifer_arma> we'll try to encourage teams to make their own servers for real
06:56 <kamp> yea
06:57 <GodTodd> and according to my govt teacher, future pres candidate too
06:57 <Lucifer_arma> just like they do in pro sports, each team provides their own field :)
06:57 <kamp> yea, he's already campaigning for the next one
06:57 <Lucifer_arma> he's running right now
06:57 <GodTodd> yep
06:57 <Lucifer_arma> ah, your teacher thinks he'll win the primary?
06:57 <GodTodd> and i have to convince people to vote for him
06:57 <kamp> Lucifer_arma: that'd also encourage the teams to localize
06:57 <GodTodd> no...she chose the top 3 from each party
06:57 <Your_mom_arma> our next president is either obama or clinton
06:57 <Lucifer_arma> kamp: I don't object to that, there are advantages to team localizing
06:57 <kamp> a lot of advantages
06:58 <Lucifer_arma> Your_mom_arma: nah, obama's going to get mudslinged to death in the primaries because he's such a strong candidate, just like Howard Dean did
06:58 <Lucifer_arma> kamp: the main thing is to handle team localizing in a way that doesn't fuck them in the whole competition, which woudl be TWC's mistake
06:58 <GodTodd> yeah...i don't think clinton or obama will win
06:59 <Your_mom_arma> :( its true... Still I prefer him over hillary
06:59 <Lucifer_arma> Your_mom_arma: I'd vote for obama in a heartbeat, though
06:59 <kamp> Lucifer_arma: it's not a big deal either way, like individual stats, we can wait for that to happen
06:59 <Lucifer_arma> easily, no contest, the chances the republicans will be able to beat him with what they've got in the wings right now are very slim, imo. at least as far as my vote is concerned.
06:59 <Your_mom_arma> its certainly not going to be gulianni
06:59 <Lucifer_arma> kamp: yeah, we have to plan to provide servers right now.
06:59 <kamp> how is that working out anyway?
07:00 <Lucifer_arma> we've got z-man, wrtlprnft, and joe at least
07:00 <DrJoeTron> Support illinois!
07:00 <Your_mom_arma> who do you think is going to win GodTodd?
07:00 <DrJoeTron> vote obama~!
07:00 <DrJoeTron> :D
07:00 <Lucifer_arma> I thought there was at least one more server offered
07:00 <Lucifer_arma> mine too, of course
07:00 <GodTodd> honestly, i don't know yet :)
07:00 <GodTodd> i refuse to vote for a lizard tho heh
07:00 <Your_mom_arma> hmm?
07:00 <Lucifer_arma> you wouldn't vote for Mozilla?
07:00 <GodTodd> newt
07:00 <GodTodd> gingrich
07:00 <kamp> oh
07:00 <Lucifer_arma> no newt is good newt
07:01 <kamp> i thought you were making a very nice douglas adams reference, GodTodd
07:01 <GodTodd> they turned him into a newt but he hasn't gotten any better
07:01 <GodTodd> kamp:): that too ;)
07:01 <Your_mom_arma> lets all vote green party!
07:01 <GodTodd> are they lizards too?
07:01 <GodTodd> or veggies?
07:01 <kamp> is the pirate party still in existence?
07:02 <Lucifer_arma> weren't they outlawed finally?
07:02 <GodTodd> i wanna vote for the mothers of invention
07:02 * Lucifer_arma has a pirate sticker on his car
07:02 <Lucifer_arma> ok, DrJoeTron (hi there!)
07:02 <Lucifer_arma> what do you think?
07:02 <kamp> you know
07:02 <kamp> four weeks of play works for five teams
07:02 <Lucifer_arma> Armagetron Fortress League *or* Regular Old Fortress League
07:02 <kamp> but then the playoffs are messed up
07:02 <kamp> unless high seed garners a bye week
07:02 <Lucifer_arma> we can chop 'em
07:03 <Lucifer_arma> I was thinking regardless of number of teams, we just do 4 for the playoffs
07:03 <kamp> oh, drop the low guy?
07:03 <Lucifer_arma> any reason we shouldn't do that?
07:03 <kamp> nah, makes sense
07:03 <kamp> bye weeks are needlessly complicated
07:03 <Lucifer_arma> we'll try to be all inclusive during the fall, up to a max of 8
07:03 <Lucifer_arma> i.e. if we have 10 teams, 8 make the playoffs, 2 make the fuckoffs
07:03 <kamp> and it'd be best for the kiddies that they play every week... or they'll likely forget
07:03 <kamp> i know i would
07:03 <Lucifer_arma> if we have 16 teams, we can play them all against each other
07:04 <kamp> nah
07:04 <kamp> over ten, you need to start cutting teams off from the playoffs
07:04 <Lucifer_arma> it'd be nice to get a final four setup going, that's cool :)
07:04 <kamp> if you have 16 teams, another option would be to make two parallel playoffs happening
07:05 <kamp> of 8 teams apiece, pit the survivor from each for a champ
07:05 <Lucifer_arma> let's just plan for an 8-team playoff for now :)
07:05 <kamp> yea
07:05 <Lucifer_arma> we can change that if registration skyrockets unpredictably
07:05 <kamp> lol
07:05 <kamp> pretty much
07:05 <DrJoeTron> Lucifer_arma when do you want that shirt done by?
07:05 <Lucifer_arma> and 4-team playoff for the july thing
07:05 <Lucifer_arma> DrJoeTron: asap, but pick a name!
07:06 <kamp> pick armagetron fortress league
07:06 <Lucifer_arma> Armagetron Fortress League or Regular Old Fortress League are the two contenders
07:06 <DrJoeTron> i thought we decided on armagetron fortress league?
07:06 <DrJoeTron> nah
07:06 <DrJoeTron> AFL
07:06 <Lucifer_arma> we'd have settled on AFL already if I wasn't pushing ROFL :)
07:06 <kamp> the docta has spoken
07:06 <Lucifer_arma> ok, I go start making wiki pages in a minute, after this cigarette :)
07:06 <DrJoeTron> i'll try and get the graphic done this weekend
07:07 <kamp> what's the graphic going to be, anyway?
07:07 <Lucifer_arma> whatever silly thing joe fancies, I imagine :)
07:07 <kamp> oh no
07:07 <DrJoeTron> i got a good one
07:07 <DrJoeTron> as stated last night
07:07 <DrJoeTron> its going to be done in mspaint
07:08 <kamp> wow
07:08 <DrJoeTron> its going to have a guy standing there
07:08 <DrJoeTron> in back of him a giant wall thats been sticking out of him,
07:08 <DrJoeTron> and theres debris and blood behind him
07:08 <kamp> ..................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
07:08 <kamp> what the hell?
07:08 <DrJoeTron> hell yeah
07:08 <DrJoeTron> its going to be epic

08:09 <Lucifer_arma> heh
08:09 <Lucifer_arma> stryper
08:10 <Lucifer_arma> man, just saying stryper makes me think of butterscotch candies, because they had drums that looked like the butterscotch candies I was eating at the time

08:48 <GodTodd> joe has one now? :D
08:48 <Your_mom_arm1> joe's had a webcomic
08:48 <Lucifer_arma> heh
08:48 <Your_mom_arm1> it was pretty awful
08:48 <Lucifer_arma> he had that weird one with sprites
08:48 <Lucifer_arma> mega-man, etc
08:50 <Lucifer_arma> well, I'm going to setup my scanner and see if it still works
08:50 <Lucifer_arma> if it does, I'm probably going to start a stickman comic :)
08:53 <Lucifer_arma> http://www.brokennewz.com/2008election/
08:54 <Lucifer_arma> As the one time leading candidate to be John Kerry’s Vice Presidential running mate McCain is seeking to remake himself into part GOP elephant and part Democrat donkey. Some people say that makes him a ‘half assed’ candidate.

09:09 <Lucifer_arma> GodTodd: ping?
09:09 <GodTodd> for a couple: pong
09:09 <Lucifer_arma> if you remember how to ssh into my server, the tablature is copying over right now
09:10 <Lucifer_arma> it's final destination is /home/share/music/tablature
09:11 <GodTodd> hrmm...somehow my login info isnt in the client :/ you don't happen to have my pwd for it do you?
09:11 <Lucifer_arma> hah
09:11 <Lucifer_arma> o
09:11 <Lucifer_arma> er
09:11 <Lucifer_arma> no
09:12 <GodTodd> bah...didn't figure
09:12 * Lucifer_arma tries to remember how to set a password from a terminal
09:12 <GodTodd> heh
09:14 <Lucifer_arma> ok, it's finished copying
09:18 <Lucifer_arma> yay for old backups! :)
09:19 * GodTodd loves finding stuff in old backups....found a bunch of writing programs the other day.
09:19 <Lucifer_arma> heh
09:19 <Lucifer_arma> well, there's more irony with this CD, besides the fact that I found it tonight *in my cdrom drive*
09:20 <GodTodd> haha
09:20 <Lucifer_arma> it's the one I originally gave to nick, and he brought it back after seeing more tabs on olga a few months later, saying keeping it up to date was hopeless
09:20 <Lucifer_arma> it's still got "tablature" in his hand-writing on it
09:20 <GodTodd> heh
09:21 <GodTodd> i might actually get some practice time in this next week
09:21 <GodTodd> :)
09:21 <Lucifer_arma> :)
09:21 <GodTodd> yay for spring break
09:21 <GodTodd> heh
09:21 <Lucifer_arma> you might want to take the lesson and burn off a copy for yourself ;)
09:21 <GodTodd> probably will
09:23 <Lucifer_arma> http://groups.google.com/group/rec.music.makers.guitar.tablature/topics <-- for more tabs
09:24 <GodTodd> yeah...i have a few other bookmarks too
09:24 <GodTodd> they drop every now and again as they get cease and desist letters
09:24 <Lucifer_arma> last time I sat in on a usenet tab group it was 99.9% requests and 0.1% spam
09:25 <Lucifer_arma> I did throw up my own version of the star spangled banner, though
09:25 <GodTodd> cool :)
09:25 <Lucifer_arma> it's not terribly creative, but it sounds nice ;)
09:25 <GodTodd> heh
09:25 <GodTodd> didn't randy brown do that at an assembly in high school once and everyone freaked?
09:25 <Lucifer_arma> now, where did I put the plugs for this scanner?
09:26 * GodTodd seems to remember that...
09:26 <Lucifer_arma> yeah, he did
09:26 <Lucifer_arma> some uptight teacher pitched a fit over it, I forget who
09:26 <GodTodd> yeah
09:26 <Lucifer_arma> the kids loved it, though
09:26 <GodTodd> it wasn't bad, as i remember it :)
09:26 <Lucifer_arma> I still don't get how it's such a bad thing to play that particular song on an electric guitar
09:26 <Lucifer_arma> but whatever, I don't think I'll ever understand that
09:27 <GodTodd> dunno...jimi did ok on it ;)
09:27 <Lucifer_arma> man, I do this thing where for the rockets' red glare part I throw it down in power chords
09:28 <GodTodd> power chords rule
09:28 <Lucifer_arma> it's right in the range for really sweet power chords :)
09:28 <GodTodd> i should probably learn chords pretty well, eh?
09:28 <Lucifer_arma> iirc the sequences starts on E, so if you play it based on the A string at fret 7 it sounds nice
09:28 <Lucifer_arma> scales, focus on scales
09:28 <GodTodd> ah ok
09:28 <Lucifer_arma> chords are constructed from scales, so understand scales
09:28 <GodTodd> makes sense :)
09:29 <Lucifer_arma> basically, you pick out 3-4 notes from a scale, play them at the same time, and you have a chord
09:29 <Lucifer_arma> if you know some shit I don't remember anymore, you can even name it
09:29 <GodTodd> heh
09:29 <Lucifer_arma> so know one or two scales, be familiar with what some of the others look like (even if you can't rip them out)
09:29 <Lucifer_arma> then you'll tear up chords and learn new ones like there's no tomorrow
09:29 <GodTodd> cool
09:31 <GodTodd> wow...still 'calculating directory size' heh
09:31 <Lucifer_arma> there's a Scales directory in that tab directory
09:31 <GodTodd> good :)
09:31 <Lucifer_arma> it's a ton of small files
09:31 <Lucifer_arma> really. The whole CD is only like 20 MB
09:31 <GodTodd> yeah...tabs are itty bitty
09:31 <Lucifer_arma> if you want, I can tarball it up real quick
09:31 <GodTodd> nah...this is cool
09:32 <GodTodd> looks like it's counted about a quarter of it
09:32 <GodTodd> it's at approx 6MB
09:32 <GodTodd> it's at the olgacountry directory
09:33 <Lucifer_arma> er, 243MB
09:33 <Lucifer_arma> I just checked
09:33 <Lucifer_arma> let me tarball it real quick
09:33 <GodTodd> heh
09:35 <Lucifer_arma> ok, recheck /home/share/music
09:36 <Lucifer_arma> there's a tablature.tar.gz file that's only 78M
09:36 <Lucifer_arma> you'll need something that can decompress it, like 7-zip
09:36 <GodTodd> yeah i have stuff to deal with tarballs
09:36 <Lucifer_arma> but it's better than waiting all night hoping it doesn't drop connection while sizing the directory :)
09:37 * Lucifer_arma needs to sort through that directory some time, there's a whole lot of cruft in it
09:37 <GodTodd> hrmm...don't see the tar
09:37 <GodTodd> nm
09:37 <GodTodd> refreshed
09:39 <GodTodd> says it'll take about half an hour

10:30 <spidey> ??
10:30 <spidey> o.O
10:31 <Lucifer_arma> well, the glass is a little scratched and pitted in places
10:31 <Lucifer_arma> but I think I can live with it
10:31 <Lucifer_arma> it sat in the bottom of my closet for awhile with plastic boxes and who knows what else being stacked on it
10:32 <Angel-H> Lucifer i would give you my scanner if you lived nearer :P
10:33 <Lucifer_arma> :) ty
10:33 <Lucifer_arma> you should see my crappy drawing before you make such an offer! ;)
10:33 <Angel-H> i would happily send it you, but me thinks that would cost more than buying a new one :P
10:33 <Lucifer_arma> more than likely
10:33 <Angel-H> i would love to see it
10:33 <Lucifer_arma> if I do a good web comic, though, being able to afford a scanner will be the least of my worries
10:34 <Lucifer_arma> I've got 4 characters in mind in two separate plotlines, so it won't just be the emo kid and the terrorist
10:35 <Angel-H> sound sinteresting and i want to see it, so get scanning :P
10:36 <Lucifer_arma> I've gotta draw some strips first :)
10:37 <Angel-H> i assumed it was all done and just needed scanning, doh :P and i would love to be able to draw, it takes tonnes of talent and confidence
10:38 <Lucifer_arma> well, see, I can't draw, really. I mean, occasionally something I draw looks almost recognizable
10:38 <Lucifer_arma> but I read a stickman comic that ws almost funny most of the time, and really funny the rest of the time
10:39 <Lucifer_arma> and I went and read the guy's commentary on it and thought "I can do that!"
10:39 <Angel-H> thats where the confidence part somes in :)
10:40 <Angel-H> comes even :P
10:40 <Angel-H> ive got a dyslexic keyboard :P
10:42 <Lucifer_arma> it's ok. I've got a dyslexic brain, so I didn't even notice

20:19 <luke-jr|work> ...
20:19 <GodTodd> well don't do that then
20:20 <Lucifer_arma> it's my leg, heh. From working out
20:20 <Lucifer_arma> I hope the little pain today means I won't have any pain tomorrow
20:21 <Lucifer_arma> I've been having pretty bad pains in my hamstrings on saturdays, so I've been working my hamstrings during the week to strengthen them,
20:21 <Lucifer_arma> figuring they won't hurt so much/at all if I buff them up a bit
20:22 <Lucifer_arma> so today the hamstrings feel fine, but the muscle they're attached to is hurting :)
20:23 <GodTodd> heh
20:26 <GodTodd> yay! joe's garage is going on the hdd now :)
20:29 <Lucifer_arma> but they don't have no dope or lsd!
20:30 <GodTodd> man...i haven't heard that cd in a long time :/
20:31 <Lucifer_arma> this is the central scrutinizer again.
20:32 <Lucifer_arma> well, my wife just went off to take her college algebra mid-term
20:32 <GodTodd> the white zone is for loading and unloading
20:32 <GodTodd> ahhh
20:32 <GodTodd> college algebra was fun
20:32 <Lucifer_arma> now my 3yo is showing me the butts on all of his toys
20:32 <Lucifer_arma> actually, he's got an ape duking it out with Darth Tater
20:33 <GodTodd> darth tater will win
20:33 <Lucifer_arma> nope, darth tater's getting dissassembled. Must be Number 5.
20:34 <GodTodd> that reminds me of when i didn't know to be scared or proud when i found a bunch of tommy's stuffed toys with surgically removed hands once
20:34 <Lucifer_arma> haha
20:35 <GodTodd> hey! armabot's theme song
20:35 <GodTodd> :)
20:35 <GodTodd> fembot in a wet t-shirt
20:45 <Lucifer_arma> heh
20:45 <Lucifer_arma> but to get a really good one you'll have to learn a foreign language
20:47 <GodTodd> ?
20:47 <Lucifer_arma> I guess that's in a different song
20:48 <Lucifer_arma> where, ironically, he says the best sex toys speak german
20:48 <Lucifer_arma> armabot: do you speak german?
20:48 <armabot> Another day...
20:48 <GodTodd> ahhh
20:48 <GodTodd> i remember that
20:48 <GodTodd> heh
20:49 <GodTodd> my balls feel like a pair of maracas :/
20:51 <Lucifer_arma> heh, I told my wife we had chlamydia by singing "Why does it hurt when I pee?" while I was peeing
20:51 <GodTodd> the german thing is in stick it out, isn't it?
20:51 <GodTodd> heh
20:52 <Lucifer_arma> yeah
20:52 <Lucifer_arma> man, 3 year olds are the happiest people in the world
20:52 <Lucifer_arma> I have to go play fussball with him, bbiab

21:14 <Lucifer_arma> damn, when was this song written?
21:15 <GodTodd> which?
21:15 <spidey> i think it's funny to give your clan members admin on a server and say have fun with it
21:15 <Lucifer_arma> Rockin' in the Free World
21:15 <Lucifer_arma> it's the Neil Young version, not neil young w/Pearl Jam
21:16 <Lucifer_arma> but the last verse refers to Bush's thousand points of light, and I just thought it was an older song
21:17 <GodTodd> "Rockin' in the Free World" is a song by Neil Young, released on his 1989 record Freedom.
21:18 -!- madmax|pt [n=madmax@unaffiliated/madmaxpt/x-23911] has joined #armagetron
21:18 <GodTodd> The lyrics of the song also criticize the administration of George H. W. Bush. The line "We got a thousand points of light / For the homeless man" refers to Bush's famous use of the phrase "a thousand points of light" in a call for volunteerism. The following line "We got a kinder, gentler, machine gun hand" is a cynical take on another of his phrases: during the 1988 U.S. Presidential campaign, he called for "a kinder and gentler n
21:18 <GodTodd> ation."

21:36 <Lucifer_arma> ok, what's the problem?
21:36 <spidey> how do i get the PID of the proccess for the exact server i want the stop/restart for
21:36 <Lucifer_arma> write it to a file when you start the server, then read that file
21:36 <spidey> i can't just do exec('killall blahblah') because there'll be more than one
21:37 <spidey> oh, k
21:37 <Lucifer_arma> look at the arma init script for an example of how to write it to a file
21:37 <spidey> k
21:39 <GodTodd> tell him no
21:39 <GodTodd> don't let him tell you what to do
21:39 <GodTodd> :D
21:41 <Lucifer_arma> tell godtodd to enjoy the taste of my left nut
21:41 <GodTodd> i gotta move?
21:41 <spidey> haha
21:41 <GodTodd> i prefer the right one

22:35 <spidey> Lucifer_arma, i hate wikis :(
22:35 <Lucifer_arma> that's good, because wikis hate you
22:35 <spidey> is there a page that shows how to install a tron server in linux?
22:35 <spidey> with custom directories
22:36 <Lucifer_arma> probably not
22:36 <spidey> :/
22:36 <Lucifer_arma> how custom do you want them to be?
22:37 <spidey> mostly everything be in /home/armagetron
22:37 <Lucifer_arma> if you build from source, you can just ./configure --prefix=
22:37 <spidey> hmm
22:37 <Lucifer_arma> I think the autopackage will let you specify where to put it, but if not, you can su armagetron and install it
22:37 <Lucifer_arma> to your home directory :)
22:37 <Lucifer_arma> (Because after you su armagetron, your home directory is armagetron)
22:38 <Lucifer_arma> the server builds easily, you just need libxml2 iirc
22:39 <spidey> installing libxml2
22:39 <Lucifer_arma> my wife needs to hurry up, I've gotta go to my physics class in a bit
22:39 <Lucifer_arma> install libxml2-dev also :)
22:39 <spidey> k
22:39 <Lucifer_arma> you might need something like glibc-dev, but I've never needed to isntall something like that
22:39 <Lucifer_arma> usually it's in the base system
22:40 <Lucifer_arma> I'd also recommend you use an svn checkout to build
22:40 <Lucifer_arma> if you're going to build from source, it's generally easiest to upgrade/update from an svn checkout than a source tarball
22:40 <spidey> 0% [Connecting to mirrors.kernel.org (204.152.191.39)] <--- won't go past that :/
22:40 <Lucifer_arma> but for that you need automake installed
22:40 <spidey> it is i think
