* Now talking in #blender
<cthulu> OK, I'm getting close to being up to speed!
<cthulu> I've spent all morning hyping this thing up on social media and trying
in vain to stockpile some topic suggestions
<cthulu> I'm sure this will all run quite smoothly
<cthulu> as long as anyone in this channel is actually awake
<cthulu> Just putting on some rice for my family dinner, soon to be a pot of
smoking rice fire while I run Blender.

It was small but sweet, and you can enjoy the results in BLNDR2017.ZIP !
(And indeed, here you all are!)  I'm not going to give you the protracted blow
by blow account since by this point, anyone who cares already knows more or
less how this thing works... but I have told the entire story through
strategic use of IRC logs.

<mel_farr_> i actually like to catch up. im bummed hennifer and warpus are
either absent or lurking silently under pseudonyms
<_tK> i've actually always liked mel, he was my superhero of fun back in the day<_tK> yah hennif and warpussy, where are they?
<@cthulu> I don't have any direct hennifer contact, always I did it through
warpus... this year and the last I think he was not able to reach
him.  (Too bad, I wanted to run a phallic Super Mario level he
designed as part of our April Fool's artpack.)
<@cthulu> as for Warpus, I believe he bought tickets to go see a football match
tonight
<@cthulu> HELLO, the date has been on the calendar for nearly a year!
<@cthulu> so alas, you have to settle for me

It was heartening to see people awaiting in #blender before the compo started
(though the logistics of getting chanops back from an idler proved complicated)
and though you see no trace of them here in this archive, alas, it still
boosted morale to receive visits from the likes of The Knight / Fuel (above)
and Smooth of TeklordZ fame.  Thanks for dropping by, maybe try taking part in
the compo next year!

BLNDR2017cool dads / cooking / the apocalypse

<cthulu> WELCOME TO THE 2017 INSTALLMENT OF THE BLENDER IMPROVISED COMPUTER ART
   IRC COMPETITION!!! !!
<cthulu> I believe there are... five of you awake in this channel?
<cthulu> ... 5 people should be enough sources of subject suggestions for me to
come up with a good compo topic

<mel_farr_> so i should submit my topic to you now?
<mel_farr_> IVE BEEN THINKING ABOUT IT ALL WEEK
<mel_farr_> hold on googling how to send priv messages in mirc

<cthulu> everyone think of their suggestions!
<sudndeath> zombies!
<sudndeath> zombies!
<sudndeath> zombies!!!@!
<sudndeath> werewolves!
<sudndeath> vejayjay's :-)
<sudndeath> b(o)(o)bies!
<sudndeath> zombie apocalypse eating
<cthulu> oh wait, have these been sudden death making topic suggestions?
<cthulu> I was parsing them as pseudo-tourettes outbursts
<sudndeath> haha :-)
<cthulu> I'm like, "why is he talking about boobies?  oh well this is the IRC,
anything goes I guess"
<sudndeath> cthulu you have seen my ansi's :-p
<cthulu> but then why the werewolves?
<cthulu> werewolf boobies?
<cthulu> can you even see them through the fur?
<sudndeath> i'm sure i could draw 6 of them :-)
<cthulu> do they have two or 8-12 like a dog?
<cthulu> OK, we're on the same page
<mel_farr_> http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=werewolf%20titties
<sudndeath> haha
<mel_farr_> ^^^ official discussion of werewolf titties
<sudndeath> Zombies Zombies Zombies
<sudndeath> elfs cow fetish drinking
<sudndeath> i'm deranged weres my medication!
<sudndeath> sudden death p0rn star irc :-)

<lGiOcDe> Person: Mouse
<lGiOcDe> place: school
<lGiOcDe> Action: painting

<_tK> Crusader gardening volcano.

<_bs> Trump, the moon, couchsurfing

<sudndeath> zombie animal fetish apocalypse :-)

<mel_farr_> "cool dads" "combatting street harassment" in "1980s downtown
calgary"

<cthulu> kniffy, please get some words in to me
<kniffy> i cant think of anything
<cthulu> throw a dart at a dictionary, you will
<kniffy> one moment
<mel_farr_> kniffy / throwing darts / library
<kniffy> opened an old encyclopedia without looking and got henry the viii
 opened another and its part of an entry for human ancestor remains in
 africa
<cthulu> that's kind of a place
<kniffy> cooking is my activity

<mn--> buzz aldrin / ricefield / airstrike

<cthulu> OK, most of the suggestions are in, we're just running them through
 the supercomputer in the basement...
<lGiOcDe> beep boop boop beep bop beep beep boop
<cthulu> I was hoping we would get some suggested specs for the supercomputer
<sudndeath> i think he meant commodore 64
<cthulu> (well, it's a "super computer")
<sudndeath> W.O.P.P.E.R
<mel_farr_> motorola 68000, 256k ram
<sudndeath> shall we play a game
<mel_farr_> 600 baud modem
<mel_farr_> 8mhz
<mel_farr_> no hd
<cthulu> click click whirr grind
<sudndeath> ok check the tape machine
<cthulu> OK, I degaussed the screen
<cthulu> the printout of the words got muddled because the tractor feed on the
   side of the paper ripped
<cthulu> it was being transmitted to me over modem from the mainframe at 300
   baud but someone picked up the phone
<cthulu> the punch cards were inserted into the reader reversed

<cthulu> but we have a subject:
<cthulu> from mel farr: "COOL DADS"
<cthulu> and an activity:
<cthulu> from kniffy: "COOKING"
<cthulu> and from sudndeath, a situation: "THE APOCALYPSE"
<cthulu> now go forth and MAKE THY ART
<_bs> do i dare to ask... but wtf is 'cool dads'? :)
<_tK> was wondering the same
<mel_farr_> gimme like 60 sec to answer that
<mel_farr_> cool dads are: dads who are sincerely trying to be "cool" but are
     not succeeding because they are middle aged dads and havent been
   anywhere near anything cool in a long time
<mel_farr_> but if you want to interpret it differently i think thats fine

<@cthulu> hang on, getting beans and changing a diaper. and viewing submissions
<@cthulu> there's a metaphor there somewhere.

<@cthulu> Very sorry, everyone!  My children did not get the memo about the
   Blender timetable.

<@cthulu> In third place... God Among Lice!  Lo, how the mighty have fallen!
<@cthulu> Mel Farr!  You have pulled off the postmodern nostalgia adeptly a
   second time!
<@cthulu> I think that only you fully understood what you meant by "cool dads"
<@cthulu> Your submission is masterful and I will be putting more oomph behind
   it but I think that when I awarded you 1st two years ago
<@cthulu> Nail was robbed, and so on this occasion you get second place.
   (First in my heart, but I don't want it to be about catering to one
   judge.)
<@cthulu> I present the esteemed 1st place in Blender 2017 to BS!
<@cthulu> BS, your ANSI art captures the subjects in a direct and handy fashion
<@cthulu> Thank you everyone! I will put the pack together soon.
 * @Rai-chan applauds the winners politely
<@cthulu> Thanks for all your patience and for playing along!
<@cthulu> Now, uh, I am burning dinner a second time.
<@cthulu> based on this year's involvement, there WILL be a Blender 2018!

* @cthulu wonders if his pot of rice is burning yet
