It will be on irc.esper.net, either at #mzx or at a custom made channel.

It SHOULD be at around 8:00 PM EST.

It's about evolution. Here are some basic rules.

You create a creature. It has to be pretty simple, and in high enough resolution to add small details to it as the game progresses. You need to tell me about its caracteristics so I can come up with humoristic problems.
Every round, you evolve a part of your creature and send me the resulting picture (png, jpg or gif only please) by DCC or E-Mail.
Each round should take no more than 10 minutes.

I imagine NATURAL DISASTERS which your creature needs to overcome. I need to approve your evolution before you add it to your character.

Once we have agreed on your creaure's evolution, you modify your creature image to reflect it.

After serveral rounds, your creature should be both kickass and hardcore.

Once the game is over we will vote for the bestest creature.

I also have my very own example, HERE.
Check it out.

Edit: Also, please reply if you will participate. I need your creature image and description before we start.

Edit edit: you can send on irc.esper.net, I am and will remain on #mzx. You can also E-Mail it to me at logicow@gmail.com.

this game is offensive to creationists who aren't me.

It sounds weird though.

8 PM EST..
..
..uh, what's that again? :(

EDIT: (Let's see, I'm +10 GMT, EST is -5 GMT, so I'm +15 GMT.)

This means 11 AM for me, IF there is no DST. If you would, look at the timestamp and tell me: is it about six minutes past 5.00 PM EST?

EDIT 2: Whee, thank you timeanddate.com. So 11:00 AM. I'll try to be on.

<Malwyn> Yes, yes. Don't worry I'd rather masturbate with broken glass than ask you for help again. :(

I'll join.

<@Tixus> Anyway, I set the year to 1988 for some reason.
<@Tixus> And set the microwave to run for a minute and 28 seconds.
<@Tixus> But it failed to send me back in time, and I was disappointed.
<Insidious> Tixus accidentally microwaved the 80s
<Insidious> that is my takeaway from this

Dr_Dos: Speaking as a creationist, I don't find evolution offensive in any sense. I don't believe it's historical fact (macroevolution, anyway,) but I have no real problem with it in a fictional context.
(and let's PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE not turn this thread into a theological debate.)

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience."

This week, on LANCER PONDERS:
<lolilover> I notice alot of Japanese fiction involving kemono-mimi characters always has the main character saving an innocent animal and then the animal returns as a girl to reward him for his kindness.
<lolilover> Well there's a cat that is always wandering around in my backyard. Should I feed it in the hopes that one day a catgirl will show up at my door?
