| _stink_ | it's nice out | 00:36 |
|---|---|---|
| _stink_ | really still | 00:36 |
| cmaloney | i swear we ran into a dozen people playing pokemon go | 01:50 |
| jrwren | yup | 01:50 |
| jrwren | EVERYONE (not really, but most) were plyaing it in AA last night. | 01:50 |
| jrwren | it was so much fun messing with them. | 01:51 |
| cmaloney | ourselves included (JoDee) | 01:51 |
| cmaloney | jah | 01:51 |
| cmaloney | tjat is awesome | 01:51 |
| cmaloney | figured AA woild have more | 01:51 |
| Zimdale | Man | 01:51 |
| Zimdale | we just drove through farmington | 01:51 |
| Zimdale | people EVERYWHERE playing that stupid game | 01:51 |
| Zimdale | the traction is unreal | 01:51 |
| cmaloney | but we went by my parent's place and there were people out in the parks | 01:51 |
| cmaloney | its amazimg | 01:52 |
| Zimdale | It's like 0-facebook overnight | 01:52 |
| jrwren | i know there ws a squirtle on liberty last night ;] | 01:52 |
| cmaloney | jeh | 01:52 |
| cmaloney | heh | 01:52 |
| cmaloney | stupid keyboard | 01:52 |
| cmaloney | Morning | 11:54 |
| mrgoodcat | there was a squirtle somewhere near the restaurant last night but it never came close enough for me to snag it | 12:48 |
| cmaloney | heh | 12:48 |
| cmaloney | JoDee caught some crab thing but it managed to escape and lock her phone. | 12:48 |
| cmaloney | (well, the app, not hte phone) | 12:49 |
| mrgoodcat | wow that is quite the crab thing | 12:49 |
| cmaloney | which was not hard to do | 12:49 |
| mrgoodcat | its the buggiest app i've ever used for an extended period of time | 12:49 |
| cmaloney | That app has some issues | 12:49 |
| cmaloney | heh | 12:49 |
| mrgoodcat | I usually have no patience for that kind of thing | 12:49 |
| cmaloney | I'm just glad that the news reports were able to explain what we were doing to my parents | 12:50 |
| cmaloney | because I was having a hell of a time. ;) | 12:50 |
| mrgoodcat | haha | 12:50 |
| cmaloney | and of course when we're standing out there near their house there wasn't anything that JoDee could catch to give a good demo | 12:51 |
| Zimdale | Just feel for the server guys having to keep that shit running | 12:51 |
| cmaloney | totally | 12:52 |
| cmaloney | esp. since the only way to get it to re-run was to re-authenticate | 12:52 |
| Zimdale | I don't think they ever could have predicted the traction that it got | 12:52 |
| cmaloney | nope | 12:52 |
| Zimdale | at least they run it off google cloud engine so in theory they can scale horizontally | 12:53 |
| cmaloney | I'd wager this was orders of magnitude more popular than Ingres | 12:53 |
| Zimdale | very very much | 12:53 |
| cmaloney | we came to the Ingres party way late and I never saw anyone playing it | 12:53 |
| cmaloney | not that I tried very hard | 12:53 |
| Zimdale | I never heard of ingres until this app came out | 12:54 |
| Zimdale | and people started bitching about it not being original | 12:54 |
| mrgoodcat | haha | 12:54 |
| mrgoodcat | i played ingress a bit | 12:54 |
| mrgoodcat | i think a lot of people installed the app then never firgured out what you're even supposed to do | 12:54 |
| mrgoodcat | also joining late was a pain i've heard since the stronger players just stomped u | 12:55 |
| cmaloney | mrgoodcat: Yeah, I felt like a gnat at a picnic when we started | 12:56 |
| cmaloney | merely an annoyance to the bigger players | 12:57 |
| mrgoodcat | according to forbes, pokemon is about to pass twitter in DAUs | 12:59 |
| mrgoodcat | http://www.forbes.com/sites/jasonevangelho/2016/07/10/pokemon-go-about-to-surpass-twitter-in-daily-active-users/#1677d0685174 | 12:59 |
| cmaloney | That wouldn't surprise me | 13:01 |
| cmaloney | though it'll be interesting to see what it looks like in 2-3 weeks | 13:02 |
