2011-10-17 12:36:32+0000 <antoviaque> btw arbrandes, since you weren't here 
this morning when I pinged everyone on this - if you can have a look at the 
post about the next steps and post what you think we should work on, would be 
good :)
2011-10-17 12:36:34+0000 <arbrandes> mtyaka, a hint regarding the tests: they 
started to hang when I introduced the async loading of cardstories.html
2011-10-17 12:37:07+0000 <mtyaka> thanks arbrandes, that will save me some git 
bisect time :)
2011-10-17 12:37:28+0000 <mtyaka> guys and girl, i'm in a hurry, need to go out 
- see you later today and enjoy the rest of the meeting :)
2011-10-17 12:37:37+0000 <antoviaque> mtyaka: ok, thanks!
2011-10-17 12:37:50+0000 <blanchard1> antoviaque: when do we discuss CS next 
steps, at the meeting tomorrow ?
2011-10-17 12:37:54+0000 <blanchard1> bye mtyaka :)
2011-10-17 12:37:56+0000 <antoviaque> (think about the next step, would be good 
to decide at tomorrow's meeting :) )
2011-10-17 12:38:04+0000 <blanchard1> hehe
2011-10-17 12:38:19+0000 <tartarugafeliz> I have a friend who played today, her 
name is Thais, she's an editor for the biggest newspaper in Brazil, its called 
Estadinho. She has a personal blog and she just wrote to me asking if she could 
write an article about CS on her blog (which is very visited)
2011-10-17 12:38:24+0000 <tartarugafeliz> so, good news! :)
2011-10-17 12:38:38+0000 <blanchard1> tartarugafeliz: very good news !!
2011-10-17 12:38:38+0000 <arbrandes> antoviaque, cool, I already read the posts 
- I have a hard time deciding what would be best to do next, though, since at 
this point we have few resources.
2011-10-17 12:38:42+0000 <tartarugafeliz> :D
2011-10-17 12:38:46+0000 <antoviaque> yep, it's being pushed back quite a few 
times - tomorrow next sprint starts, no matter what :)
2011-10-17 12:38:49+0000 <arbrandes> tartarugafeliz, great news!!
2011-10-17 12:38:53+0000 <tartarugafeliz> né!
2011-10-17 12:38:56+0000 <antoviaque> tartarugafeliz: blanchard1: thanks for 
taking care of the players btw this week-end :)
2011-10-17 12:39:04+0000 <tartarugafeliz> it was a pleasure! :)
2011-10-17 12:39:28+0000 <tartarugafeliz> I really like to see how they react 
and they come back and the game even helped one of them to do her homework!
2011-10-17 12:39:37+0000 <blanchard1> antoviaque: tartarugafeliz did all the 
work. I only was able to attend when she screamed on the chat that she turned 
into an octopus
2011-10-17 12:39:43+0000 <tartarugafeliz> hahahaahahahah
2011-10-17 12:39:45+0000 <antoviaque> ahahahahah
2011-10-17 12:39:56+0000 <tartarugafeliz> but that helped a lot blanchard1 
thank you!
2011-10-17 12:40:02+0000 <antoviaque> arbrandes: apparently Felix is a go 
(blanchard1 you confirm? :) )
2011-10-17 12:40:16+0000 <blanchard1> but it was great to see the players, 
indeed
2011-10-17 12:40:27+0000 <tartarugafeliz> there is a player, sinistergirl right 
now playing with us
2011-10-17 12:40:29+0000 <arbrandes> heheheheh
2011-10-17 12:40:31+0000 <tartarugafeliz> she's always coming back!
2011-10-17 12:40:33+0000 <tartarugafeliz> :D
2011-10-17 12:40:51+0000 <blanchard1> antoviaque: arbrandes i have an oral "ok" 
from Felix yep :p
2011-10-17 12:40:59+0000 <antoviaque> if so we would be able to resume the 
budget on development - but you wouldn't be available for some time right?
2011-10-17 12:41:14+0000 <arbrandes> Awesome, that's great news too, blanchard1 
:)
2011-10-17 12:41:21+0000 <tartarugafeliz> :D
2011-10-17 12:41:48+0000 <arbrandes> antoviaque, that's what I was going to get 
at - for me it's not about the money, at this point
2011-10-17 12:41:56+0000 <arbrandes> It's about keeping sane, lol
2011-10-17 12:43:14+0000 <arbrandes> But I'm going to try and see how much time 
I can reserve for CS during the week.  It's not going to be much more than 1 or 
2 bananas, though
2011-10-17 12:43:35+0000 <arbrandes> At least for the next couple of months
2011-10-17 12:44:46+0000 <antoviaque> yup, at the end we should have kept it as 
is - we couldn't know but we end up not having an intteruption
2011-10-17 12:46:04+0000 <antoviaque> on the other side dachary is back, too - 
if felix' money is confirmed, would you be able to resume like before you left 
dachary?
2011-10-17 12:46:11+0000 <arbrandes> If something changes I'll keep you guys 
posted
2011-10-17 12:46:49+0000 <dachary> antoviaque: I would agree to that, if it 
does not deprive anyone.
2011-10-17 12:47:18+0000 <blanchard1> that would be very good imho
2011-10-17 12:47:30+0000 <blanchard1> what about you mtyaka ?
2011-10-17 12:47:52+0000 <antoviaque> dachary: it wouldn't for the months to 
come, nope - cool :D
2011-10-17 12:48:07+0000 <antoviaque> blanchard1: I think mtyaka said he went 
away :)
2011-10-17 12:48:08+0000 <tartarugafeliz> :D
2011-10-17 12:48:17+0000 <blanchard1> ah right :)
2011-10-17 12:48:18+0000 <dachary> :-0
2011-10-17 12:48:21+0000 <dachary> :-)
2011-10-17 12:48:24+0000 <tartarugafeliz> \o/
2011-10-17 12:48:39+0000 <blanchard1> it would be interesting to know if he 
wants to increase the pace on his side compared to current month
2011-10-17 12:48:45+0000 <blanchard1> welcome back dachary ;)
2011-10-17 12:48:56+0000 <antoviaque> arbrandes: ok with you to do like that?
2011-10-17 12:49:38+0000 <blanchard1> a few words of caution antoviaque dachary 
:
2011-10-17 12:49:48+0000 * dachary listening
2011-10-17 12:49:51+0000 <antoviaque> blanchard1: yep, good idea - not sure 
where mtyaka is at, but could be another good option yep
2011-10-17 12:50:15+0000 <blanchard1> 1) let's wait till funds are transferred 
before acting this. Nothing is signed yet :)
2011-10-17 12:50:19+0000 <arbrandes> antoviaque, of course, I'll keep around 
for whatever tasks are left that fit in the budget and in my time
2011-10-17 12:51:54+0000 <blanchard1> 2) once this is ok : the duration of work 
will depend on Felix and other possible funding options. Right now with the 
most pessimistic option it would be 7500€ so one month funding no much more
2011-10-17 12:52:01+0000 <blanchard1> end of caution word :)
2011-10-17 12:52:53+0000 <blanchard1> dachary: antoviaque ^
2011-10-17 12:53:17+0000 <antoviaque> yep - but since he agreed on 15K, if he 
goes on with this first part we'll likely have 2 months then, correct?
2011-10-17 12:53:33+0000 <antoviaque> (actually less, we need to take into 
account marketing)
2011-10-17 12:54:05+0000 <blanchard1> antoviaque: Felix agreed on 7500 
immediatly and 7500 after he meets us (if he's happy with us :)). So, the 
secured part is 7500
2011-10-17 12:55:38+0000 <dachary> blanchard1: roger that ;-)
2011-10-17 12:57:32+0000 * blanchard1 looking at CS chat : tartarugafeliz we 
really seem to have 2-3 addicted players now :)
2011-10-17 12:57:35+0000 <antoviaque> ok :)
2011-10-17 12:57:43+0000 <antoviaque> yep, really kewl :p
2011-10-17 12:57:51+0000 <blanchard1> it will be cool to build on that core
2011-10-17 12:57:55+0000 <tartarugafeliz> yes, they come back every day!
2011-10-17 12:59:01+0000 <blanchard1> tartarugafeliz: it's also because you're 
a great master of ceremony
2011-10-17 12:59:34+0000 * blanchard1 adding a story to develop an IA on the 
chat that entertains players like tartarugafeliz does
2011-10-17 12:59:39+0000 <blanchard1> (not Eve)
2011-10-17 12:59:45+0000 <tartarugafeliz> ahahahahah thank you! :D
2011-10-17 12:59:52+0000 <tartarugafeliz> I really like to pretend I'm 2 people 
at once
2011-10-17 13:02:49+0000 <blanchard1> antoviaque: something else for today ? I 
need to fetch coffee outside (no coffee at the office :/)
2011-10-17 13:05:50+0000 <blanchard1> well antoviaque i'll assume we're done ;)
2011-10-17 13:05:56+0000 <arbrandes> fine by me :)
2011-10-17 13:07:11+0000 <antoviaque> blanchard1: yep sorry, all good
2011-10-17 13:07:35+0000 * antoviaque is playing on CS at the same time, and 
not really multitask :p
2011-10-17 13:07:40+0000 <blanchard1> i want coffee but i'm stuck with the 
games on CS antoviaque (and happy about it :))
2011-10-17 13:07:40+0000 <antoviaque> eve: end dailymeeting

2011-10-17 13:07:47+0000 <antoviaque> eheheheh
2011-10-17 13:10:28+0000 <blanchard1> incredible to see how the chat makes for 
the pleasure of this game
2011-10-17 13:11:07+0000 <blanchard1> it's obvious, but it really makes the 
difference
2011-10-17 13:20:09+0000 <antoviaque> yep, definitely

2011-10-17 14:58:40+0000 <antoviaque> MCMic: you said you had design problems 
on Firefox 7? Just run it on crossbrowsertesting and the issue doesn't show up: 
http://crossbrowsertesting.com/users/32546/screenshots/z3bb85762905020d515d/public
2011-10-17 14:59:09+0000 <antoviaque> what os/browser version precisely?
2011-10-17 15:13:18+0000 <antoviaque> and 
http://crossbrowsertesting.com/users/32546/screenshots/z9d9e218231cae839f68/public,
 plus live test on Firefox 7 under MacOS & Ubuntu, homepage seem fine
2011-10-17 15:14:22+0000 <antoviaque> overall, got issues with Opera 9 only, 
and it's not a browser we support
2011-10-17 15:43:43+0000 <MCMic> antoviaque: it's because I don't have the font 
helvetica
2011-10-17 15:44:04+0000 <antoviaque> oh, I see
2011-10-17 15:44:51+0000 <antoviaque> would you mind creating a bug with a 
screenshot attached? 
http://tickets.farsides.com/projects/cardstories/issues/new (otherwise if you 
can send me the screenshot I'll create the bug :) )
2011-10-17 16:13:32+0000 <antoviaque> blanchard: would 
http://tickets.farsides.com/issues/537 be a good solution to 
http://tickets.farsides.com/issues/485 ?
2011-10-17 16:14:45+0000 <antoviaque> I'm trying to group issues related to the 
lobby (was mentioned by a player again today), and I'm thinking this could be a 
way to solve this & the other usability issues we had about the lobby
2011-10-17 16:19:01+0000 <antoviaque> tartarugafeliz: if you have 5 minutes to 
look at it, let me know what you think too :)
2011-10-17 16:22:25+0000 <MCMic> antoviaque: I did some screenshot for 
tartarugafeliz last time
2011-10-17 16:23:21+0000 <MCMic> antoviaque:

2011-10-17 16:24:02+0000 <antoviaque> MCMic: cool, thanks - I'll do a bug 
report :)
2011-10-17 16:45:28+0000 <tartarugafeliz> I love the tab idea
2011-10-17 16:45:38+0000 <tartarugafeliz> and it was the first comment we had 
from a player
2011-10-17 16:45:49+0000 <antoviaque> tartarugafeliz: cool :)
2011-10-17 16:45:57+0000 <tartarugafeliz> a player that stayed in the game for 
more than 2 hours so its really valuable :)
2011-10-17 16:46:03+0000 <antoviaque> yep, that's why I digged into the subject 
a little
2011-10-17 16:46:09+0000 <antoviaque> :)
2011-10-17 16:46:10+0000 <tartarugafeliz> good job! :D
2011-10-17 16:46:15+0000 <antoviaque> thx ;p
2011-10-17 17:34:34+0000 dachary (dachary) is now online
2011-10-17 18:37:52+0000 * dachary finished his work day
2011-10-17 20:24:34+0000 <mtyaka> hey antoviaque, have a few moments?
2011-10-17 20:24:47+0000 <antoviaque> mtyaka: sure!
2011-10-17 20:25:24+0000 <mtyaka> i'm catching up with the posts on buddypress
2011-10-17 20:26:12+0000 <mtyaka> i haven't been following very closely the 
last couple of days becaues i've been busy with other things.... and there was 
a lot of activity around CS, which is great!
2011-10-17 20:26:35+0000 <mtyaka> anyway, i have a couple of questions, which 
you maybe already discussed....
2011-10-17 20:27:07+0000 <mtyaka> one thing about the (non)required login that 
i've been  thinking about lately is:
2011-10-17 20:28:17+0000 <mtyaka> currently, a first-time visitor (who wasn't 
invited by another player) can only create a new game, he cannot join an 
existing game (because there is no list of active games on the home page)
2011-10-17 20:28:44+0000 <mtyaka> bug after he creates his first game, he is 
able to join other active games ,because they are announced in the chat
2011-10-17 20:29:39+0000 <mtyaka> would it make sense to have a list of all 
currently active games (perhaps filtered to only those with available seats) on 
the home page?
2011-10-17 20:30:01+0000 <mtyaka> although, on the second thought...
2011-10-17 20:30:26+0000 <mtyaka> he'd probably feel lost coming to the middle 
of a game if he wasn't familiar with the game yet
2011-10-17 20:31:26+0000 <antoviaque> mtyaka: yep, the reasoning has been that 
if new players are creating games, it creates a flow of new games, and players 
in the chat can join it
2011-10-17 20:32:31+0000 <mtyaka> i see... and once a player goes through all 
the steps of creating his own game, he will understand the game well enough to 
be able to join other games
2011-10-17 20:32:42+0000 <antoviaque> exactly
2011-10-17 20:33:07+0000 <antoviaque> the case in which a newcomer would start 
as as player and not as an author is when he is invited by a friend
2011-10-17 20:33:31+0000 <antoviaque> but then the friend can explain it, 
especially if they are playing synchronously
2011-10-17 20:34:22+0000 <mtyaka> ok, that makes sense, thanks for clarifying
2011-10-17 20:34:38+0000 <antoviaque> yw :)
2011-10-17 21:22:46+0000 <blanchard> antoviaque: doing some cleaning on the 
tracker ? ;)
2011-10-17 21:22:57+0000 <antoviaque> hehe, yep :)
2011-10-17 21:23:09+0000 <blanchard> just back from home, looking at your tab 
idea (which is interesting)
2011-10-17 21:23:10+0000 <antoviaque> removing old tasks that aren't relevant 
anymore
2011-10-17 21:23:57+0000 <antoviaque> I haven't finished entering all stories - 
overall it's taking a lot of time, but it's a very good exercise :)
2011-10-17 21:25:35+0000 <blanchard> yes it's a good way to build an overview 
of all the current subjects i'm sure
2011-10-17 21:26:59+0000 <antoviaque> yep - and I think for this sprint there 
is already plenty with the bugs, which buys us some time to discuss/polish the 
features descriptions, and priorities there
