LFP6: Hey all! It's about that time again for the weekly Eternacon chat [8:04 PM]
LFP6: We've got our foot in the door for a number of things now, thanks to Johan [8:05 PM]
LFP6: Still working through the task list to make sure everything is updated [8:07 PM]
LFP6: Whew, empty tonight [8:08 PM]
LFP6: AndrewKae: You around? [8:26 PM]
AndrewKae: Hi LFP6, I was writing but I'm here now [8:26 PM]
LFP6: Hey. Rhiju was wondering if you would be up for an Eternacon slot to talk about how you solved some of the OpenTB R2 puzzles [8:27 PM]
johana: Hello [8:28 PM]
LFP6: Hey Johan! [8:28 PM]
LFP6: Now the party's starting :) [8:28 PM]
AndrewKae: hi Johan [8:28 PM]
LFP6: I'm just working on the session schedule [8:28 PM]
LFP6: https://goo.gl/q2JP6t [8:28 PM]
LFP6: Anyone able to give me a hand with this? [8:29 PM]
LFP6: Astromon, maybe, if you're available since you helped last year? [8:29 PM]
AndrewKae: LFP, I don't think I can do that, I can't fully explain it to myself. My presentation would be to lock myself in a widowless room for 6 days and don't come out until you have a solution [8:30 PM]
LFP6: Haha [8:31 PM]
LFP6: Btw Johan, as I'm thinking of it - what are your thoughts on setting up a Zazzle store instead of going through Explosion Sportswear for the shirts? [8:31 PM]
LFP6: It would be nice to finally have Eterna merch available [8:31 PM]
LFP6: If we wanted to provide the shirts for those in-person, I'm assuming we could just order them in bulk, then whoever else wants one can order one (plus a standard Eterna shirt, or mugs, or whatever) [8:32 PM]
AndrewKae: can you order a 3xl [8:33 PM]
LFP6: I imagine so [8:33 PM]
AndrewKae: i'm a bit portly [8:33 PM]
LFP6: Apparently Zazzle goes up to 6XL [8:34 PM]
coler706: my script keeps throwing this error oops...document.getElementById(...).fold is not a function [8:34 PM]
coler706: does anyone lnow how to fix [8:34 PM]
LFP6: Are you making a booster? [8:36 PM]
coler706: no [8:37 PM]
coler706: a puzzle solver [8:37 PM]
AndrewKae: LFP, I'm not sure how my transpotation is going to work, but I'm willing to show up a bit early on Sat if I can help with anything [8:37 PM]
coler706: im using http://www.eternagame.org/web/script/5291784/ [8:37 PM]
coler706: as a base [8:37 PM]
coler706: and that throws the error too [8:37 PM]
LFP6: Andrew: Thanks for the offer. Not 100% sure what will be involved, but will keep that in mind [8:38 PM]
AndrewKae: brb [8:38 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: hi [8:40 PM]
LFP6: Hey Jen! [8:41 PM]
LFP6: Starting on the agenda if you want to lend a hand [8:41 PM]
LFP6: https://goo.gl/q2JP6t [8:41 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: The way i scheduled last year was i made the morning interesting [8:42 PM]
LFP6: How so? [8:42 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: followed by some wake up fun before the good stuff [8:42 PM]
LFP6: Ah [8:42 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: something to help everyone wake up but nothing that they are going to not want to forget [8:43 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: too early...maybe sleepyu [8:43 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: then just before the main show started with the TB presentation I did the puzzle thing I think [8:44 PM]
LFP6: The "Session Dump" tab has a list of the sessions I think we'll be working with [8:44 PM]
LFP6: Times are extremely rouch guestimates [8:45 PM]
LFP6: *rough [8:45 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: ok [8:46 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: maybe start with the state of Eterna and then lead into CRISPR [8:47 PM]
LFP6: Are we assuming Rhiju will want to do something like that? [8:47 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: no [8:50 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: im hoping/assuming that one of the devs will be willing to [8:50 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: actually maybe that might be a weird spot for it [8:51 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: There are a lot of CRISPR things [8:51 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: that could take up a full day. We should probably balance the CRISPR stuff over teh 2 days [8:51 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: @johan is the science and lab walkthrough going to be a seperate Eterna science presentation and a seperate wlakthrough? [8:56 PM]
LFP6: I think the hardest part is going to be what we start off with [8:57 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: agreed [9:01 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: I think we should save Tomeo's presentation on RNA stuff till Sunday [9:03 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: want to give people who can only make it Sunday some good science to chew on [9:03 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: and the CRISPR ethics [9:03 PM]
LFP6: And my slot will have to go then too [9:04 PM]
LFP6: Puzzle activity - half an hour? Hour? [9:04 PM]
LFP6: 45 minutes, and offset the schedule for the rest of the day? :) [9:04 PM]
LFP6: Or, till lunch maybe [9:05 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: dont forget scheduling breaks [9:06 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: you can fix the ofset with that [9:06 PM]
LFP6: Right [9:06 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: if the activity is pure fun schedule for 30min and plan to go over. If training and teaching then hourish [9:07 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: i think [9:07 PM]
LFP6: I think I'll say 45 [9:07 PM]
LFP6: Ramlyn put down science and analysis for the activity too - we'll need to check with her to see if she had any ideas as far as that goes [9:08 PM]
LFP6: If it was something different from a straight puzzle session like last year [9:08 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: i kinda paused on teh schedule cause next shoudl be a player thing I think but not sure which to do [9:10 PM]
LFP6: How long was the lab tour? [9:10 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: would help if we new what the activitys were specifically about [9:10 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: 30min? [9:10 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: ish [9:10 PM]
LFP6: The schedule says it was merged with Johan's presentation last year [9:11 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: oh yeah it rolled right in [9:12 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: will there be aCRISPR to see in the walkthrough? [9:12 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: if so that shoulld be after the intro to CRISPR if we mover the science and tour back togeher [9:13 PM]
LFP6: It was a half hour each last year, just checked [9:13 PM]
LFP6: The schedule only budgeted a half hour total lol [9:13 PM]
LFP6: I doubt it [9:13 PM]
LFP6: Next steps with TB up front is kinda cool [9:15 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: i just screwed up your schedule [9:15 PM]
LFP6: *Shrug* [9:16 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: shifted the presentation [9:16 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: lets do CRISPR just after lunch [9:17 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: everyone has food and energy [9:17 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: we can do a photo on Sat and Sun lunch maybe as well [9:17 PM]
LFP6: The puzzle solving thing feels a little weirdly placed [9:17 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: i agree it does fell a little weird now [9:18 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: maybe put the sciecne back where it was? [9:18 PM]
LFP6: Yeah [9:19 PM]
LFP6: Do we need to keep that with the lab walkthrough though? [9:19 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: not sure. it kinda rolled into each other last year [9:20 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: how does that look? [9:22 PM]
LFP6: Still thinking [9:25 PM]
LFP6: What about TB -> Science/Lab? [9:25 PM]
LFP6: Would that flow OK? [9:26 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: i think that would work [9:27 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: the walkthrough could act as teh fun part [9:27 PM]
LFP6: I'm thinking the activity would be good midafternoon [9:27 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: that sounds good [9:28 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: late lunch [9:31 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: ? [9:31 PM]
LFP6: 12 again? [9:31 PM]
LFP6: Or a little later, because of the break? [9:31 PM]
LFP6: Do we need the break? [9:31 PM]
LFP6: TB + Lab + CRISPR doesn't seem like a lot [9:32 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: true [9:33 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: the walkthrough could be the break as well [9:33 PM]
LFP6: Yep [9:33 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: and kinda is one [9:33 PM]
LFP6: Do we want to continue w/ CRISPR right after lunch? [9:34 PM]
LFP6: Or transition to a player topic? [9:35 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: good question [9:36 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: i was just thinking about puting it right after the intro despit what I said earlier [9:36 PM]
LFP6: Falcon is a Stanford guy btw [9:40 PM]
LFP6: If that makes a difference [9:40 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: ok [9:41 PM]
LFP6: 11:30 lunch, then Tesla, then EF, then C@S? [9:41 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: i got it . how are we going to pay fora ll of this... funding [9:41 PM]
LFP6: Was thinking that might start day 2 [9:41 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: ok [9:41 PM]
LFP6: Or: Tesla, EF, Ramlyn, then C@S? [9:42 PM]
LFP6: Unless we want to back-to-back Tesla and Ramlyn [9:42 PM]
LFP6: That could make a good pair [9:42 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: i like the first one and the second one [9:44 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: the 3rd one if we doa break in between [9:44 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: i like the first better [9:45 PM]
LFP6: Yeah [9:45 PM]
LFP6: Not sure if Tesla will go for a half hour or an hour [9:46 PM]
LFP6: Half hour may be more realistic, but not sure [9:47 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: i like it so far [9:48 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: i like the idea of ending it on the puzzle . we can take as long as we want on that one [9:49 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: last year that was a problem I think. we had to rush the fun [9:49 PM]
LFP6: Yeah, I remember that [9:50 PM]
LFP6: Thoughts? [10:01 PM]
LFP6: The timing gets pretty ?? day 2 [10:01 PM]
LFP6: Mainly because it's a lot of player stuff [10:01 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: yeah [10:02 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: can we take a 15min break? [10:03 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: need to walk to store real quick [10:03 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: i do agree that teh timing gets ? on Sunday. it needs to flow still [10:03 PM]
LFP6: Content too [10:05 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: brb in 15 [10:07 PM]
johana: Sorry, will there be a chat log? [10:25 PM]
LFP6: Yep, of course [10:25 PM]
LFP6: I would've wrapped up already but want to see if Jen has any closing thoughts [10:25 PM]
LFP6: Could you take a peek at the schedule and provide your thoughts? [10:25 PM]
johana: I'm on the instrument computer now (sorry, trying to fix stuff to get experiments on track) so could you post the link again? [10:31 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: im back [10:31 PM]
LFP6: https://goo.gl/q2JP6t [10:31 PM]
LFP6: I also put together a registration form, and I'm finishing up on the official announcement news post/email/PM to be sent out [10:32 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: i think the schedule works [10:32 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: good placement of Tomeo [10:32 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: 's thing [10:33 PM]
LFP6: We'll have to confirm everything with the presenters of course [10:33 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: it is a living document [10:33 PM]
johana: Nice. The program looks promising. [10:33 PM]
LFP6: Ok, next up, registration form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1_jAPK4lu4-6m9nfWnwnWlcTYKIRIB95EV4JQKX11uXA/edit [10:34 PM]
LFP6: Johan, did you see my comment re: t-shirts before btw? [10:34 PM]
johana: Is there a plan for after 3 pm on Sat? Since a lot of poeple may be from the outside, extending the activities on Satu could be interesting. [10:34 PM]
LFP6: We should talk about dinner, at least [10:35 PM]
johana: I think that we could easiily go to 5 pm, followed by dinner, like last year [10:35 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: if we have more people who can present we can add them i think [10:35 PM]
LFP6: It was catered by Paxtis 2015, don't know about last year [10:35 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: we went out to eat and Rhuiju paid with sponsor money [10:36 PM]
LFP6: Yeah, definitely Jen. I mean, I don't know if some people will want to go a full hour, but I do agree if we could add some additional events that could be good [10:36 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: i think [10:36 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: I am more than willing to do something but I havnt done anything [10:36 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: static stems have been very successfull [10:36 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: i did make a nupack DPAT api but havnt done anything with it this last year. been too busy [10:37 PM]
LFP6: Dunno if there's anything good for a Saturday panel [10:38 PM]
LFP6: I won't be able to make it, but [10:38 PM]
LFP6: That's why I scheduled the OSS thing Sunday :) [10:38 PM]
LFP6: Another thought to tack on... Do we want to split between the Guest House and the Cardinal? [10:38 PM]
LFP6: And just let people choose [10:38 PM]
LFP6: I imagine it's nice for people to be in one place, dunno if there's benefits to both where it would be good to let people choose [10:39 PM]
johana: Good point. I contacted both just to inquire and ended up getting a group code at that time [10:40 PM]
johana: I think that the cardinal is cheaper and easier to get to, so I would recommend that if people are fine with the accomodations there. [10:41 PM]
LFP6: Afaik that was OK in 2015 [10:41 PM]
LFP6: I wasn't able to lodge there because we (my dad and I) got set with things so late [10:41 PM]
LFP6: But there are some nice pictures! [10:42 PM]
johana: There is no room on Friday at the guest house, so if people fly in thte day before they'd have to use the cardinal [10:42 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: lets just use the cardinal then? [10:42 PM]
LFP6: Yeah [10:42 PM]
johana: I have to leave but let's keep the conversation on slack. Let me know what tasks I have to focus on the most. there are a lot assigned to me that I won't be able to complete by tonight [10:43 PM]
johana: Thanks for all the great stuff you're doing! [10:43 PM]
LFP6: Thank you [10:43 PM]
LFP6: Can I check off any of your tasks? [10:43 PM]
LFP6: IE, I think hotels is done? [10:43 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: can I run off now? [10:46 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: my xbox one is calling [10:46 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: it was a good session I think. got alot done [10:46 PM]
LFP6: Yeah. We'll talk more on Slack. [10:47 PM]
LFP6: Thank you both for your work this year, I'll get the chat log posted! [10:47 PM]
Jennifer Pearl: cool see you on slack [10:47 PM]
