19:28:01 <Brunius> Yeah
19:36:49 <Brunius> I need to go down to the local library at some point and print off my chronicle sheets
19:37:16 <Ballig> get mekkis or avatar to print them and bring them
19:38:14 <Brunius> Avatar: Mind printing my chronicle sheets and bringing them along to arcanacon?
19:38:39 <Brunius> Anyway, I'd still need to go down to print off the char sheet
19:39:07 <Avatar> yeah I can do it
19:39:47 <Brunius> DCC allow me?
19:39:58 <Brunius> Or should I stick it on 4shared or something?
19:40:04 <Jevouse> dropboxxing

20:54:06 <Avatar> you need to pay to get the trial
20:54:38 <Spaceshot_tm2> not the free month
20:54:53 <Spaceshot_tm2> I mean, is there like a 10day trial key that you might get for buying the game
20:54:57 <Spaceshot_tm2> since it's a SOE game
20:55:09 <Avatar> yeah you buy the game and get the first month free
20:55:36 <Spaceshot_tm2> lemme guess, this is the first mmo you've played
20:55:45 <Avatar> no
20:55:52 <Avatar> I know what you're talking about
20:55:54 <Brunius> Never mind, avatar, I just talked to my dad and he said he'd pick up an ink cartridge tomorrow
20:55:56 <Avatar> but that's not what you're asking
20:56:11 <Avatar> why would they have free 10 day trials to see if you want to buy the game
20:56:20 <Avatar> if there is a trial after you pay for the game
20:56:30 <Spaceshot_tm2> I'm asking, IS THERE A FUCKING TRIAL KEY YOU CAN GIVE TO SOMEONE ELSE TO ALLOW THEM TO PLAY THE GAME FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME TO TEST THE GAME TO SEE IF IT IS WORTH BUYING
20:56:32 <Brunius> To get your friends addicted
20:56:40 <Brunius> Valve does it too
20:56:53 <Brunius> I got a trial for TF2 to gift to one of my friends
20:56:55 <Spaceshot_tm2> every fucking SOE game has them
20:57:00 <Brunius> SOE?
20:57:20 <Spaceshot_tm2> sony online entertainment, the same company that brought you everquest
20:57:40 <Brunius> What the fuck is everquest?
20:57:58 Sachiru ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
20:58:06 <Spaceshot_tm2> these youngins these days
20:59:05 <Spaceshot_tm2> a very early MMO
20:59:11 <Spaceshot_tm2> which is still played to this day
20:59:16 <Spaceshot_tm2> even though there is an everquest 2
21:01:11 <Brunius> Anyway, I couldn't afford one box of stuff a month
21:01:29 <Brunius> (For the painting challenge)
21:01:40 <Spaceshot_tm2> single characters count
21:02:12 <Brunius> Characters = Metal = Superglue = fingers stuck together = not eager to try again
21:02:28 <Spaceshot_tm2> heh
21:02:45 <Spaceshot_tm2> there are ways to get metal to metal without superglue
21:02:51 <Brunius> such as?
21:03:45 <Spaceshot_tm2> sadly can't remember
21:03:48 <Jevouse> solder
21:03:50 <Spaceshot_tm2> but if you google it, there are many ways
21:03:53 <Spaceshot_tm2> soldering is a bad idea
21:03:59 <Brunius> Yeah...
21:04:06 <Jevouse> epoxy resin
21:04:18 <Jevouse> binary glue
21:05:23 <Brunius> I'm not eager to use araldite on metal models
21:06:08 <Mekkis_x200> metallic cement
21:09:38 <Spaceshot_tm2> you could always get a part time job
21:10:31 <Brunius> Not old enough
21:10:49 <Spaceshot_tm2> thought you were 14?
21:10:58 <Brunius> got another 7 months, I think
21:11:03 <Brunius> Yeah, I'm 14
21:11:08 <Spaceshot_tm2> old enough
21:11:22 <Brunius> You can get a job (in vic, at least) at 14 and 9 months
21:11:28 <Brunius> thats the earliest, I think
21:11:45 <Spaceshot_tm2> some fast food won't care
21:11:48 <Spaceshot_tm2> seriously
21:11:59 <Spaceshot_tm2> I've been to maccas, and it's like 12 year olds
21:12:06 <Spaceshot_tm2> we have the same age min in SA
21:14:25 <Brunius> Dude
21:14:35 <Brunius> the nearest fast food place is like, half an hour away
21:14:49 <Brunius> by car
21:14:57 <Brunius> by public transport, its like an hour
21:17:36 <Spaceshot_tm2> stop living in the middle of nowhere
21:17:54 <Spaceshot_tm2> XD
21:17:57 <Spaceshot_tm2> but yea, just saying
21:17:59 <Brunius> I should be into the suburbs by the end of this year
21:18:09 <Spaceshot_tm2> mmm
21:18:09 <Brunius> I go to school in the suburbs
21:18:15 <Brunius> My brother will, next year
21:18:23 <Brunius> my dad works in the suburbs
21:18:45 <Brunius> Only reason we're hanging around here is because we seem to lack the motivation to move
21:18:56 <Spaceshot_tm2> heh
21:19:15 <Spaceshot_tm2> lazy family is lazy XD
21:19:49 <Spaceshot_tm2> we live 3min walk from the smallest shopping centre/mall/complex in SA
21:19:50 <Spaceshot_tm2> XD
21:19:52 <Brunius> burn skele burn
21:20:16 <Jevouse> the smallest...
21:20:55 <Spaceshot_tm2> well... the smallest mall
21:21:23 <Spaceshot_tm2> its got about 30 or so shops

21:35:36 <Mekkis> yes
21:36:52 <Jevouse> the conversion please
21:37:44 <Brunius> time for some TF2
21:39:18 Brunius_TF2 ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
21:40:15 <Mekkis> no
21:41:32 <Mekkis> why would you want it anyway?
21:42:36 <Jevouse> why would i want a domain conversion of my God?
21:42:56 GlompNinja has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
21:44:07 <Mekkis> exactly
21:44:39 <Mekkis> #
21:44:40 <Mekkis> Other: Faerûnean Deities should be used, domains however should be selected from Pathfinder core.
21:44:47 <Mekkis> gawd
21:44:50 <Mekkis> RTFM
22:53:32 Topic for #d&d set by Ballig at Tue Jan 18 22:25:37 2011
22:53:40 <Jevouse> yes, the thayans use orcs and gnolls in their armies
22:54:06 <Mekkis_x200> exactly, they exploit them
22:57:01 <Spaceshot_tm2> mekkis, isn't that what is happening to the players in EM
22:57:03 <Mekkis_x200> to put it into perspective, there are two types of Thayan Humans
22:57:09 <Spaceshot_tm2> we're getting exploited
22:57:23 <Avatar> Ballig: why did we stop playing star wars
22:57:35 <Spaceshot_tm2> cause it's star wars?
22:57:42 <Mekkis_x200> you're not in an army, and you're granted a lot of volition
22:57:59 <Mekkis_x200> what's wrong with starwars?
22:58:02 <Spaceshot_tm2> we are still being exploited in some way
22:58:35 <Spaceshot_tm2> star wars has very open powergaming
22:58:44 <Spaceshot_tm2> look at a jedi vs a sharpshooter
22:58:59 <Jevouse> so i'm a commoner Half Orc
22:59:05 <Avatar> we didn't powergame
22:59:11 <Spaceshot_tm2> not saying you do
22:59:16 <Avatar> actually, Ballig did
22:59:17 <Spaceshot_tm2> I'm just saying, think about star wars
22:59:19 <Avatar> bloody stun grenades
22:59:34 <Mekkis_x200> Spaceshot_tm2, I thought that if there's a powergamer, a Good DM should be able to deal with it
23:10:10 <Spaceshot_tm2> I'm mean the whole fluff wise and such is like that
23:10:10 <Spaceshot_tm2> jedi beats all but explosive weaponry
23:10:10 <Avatar> that's really not true
23:10:10 <Avatar> not in the d20 game anyway
23:10:10 <Spaceshot_tm2> no I know game wise they try to dumb it down
23:10:10 <Spaceshot_tm2> and balance it
23:10:10 <Jevouse> don't see it there Mekkis
23:10:10 <Spaceshot_tm2> which reminds me, got to find jedi knights jedi academy 2

23:33:05 <Jevouse> the direct link works but there's no link on the page itself
23:33:48 <Mekkis> Jevouse, either you're viewing it in a browser, which is dumb, or you're using a "download accelerator" which is impolite

23:37:22 <Jevouse> the browser
23:38:15 <Jevouse> just had to confirm it was right
23:41:33 <Mekkis> Jevouse, could you explain your character concept and direction
23:42:42 <Jevouse> I'm a Thayan mercenary cleric of Kossuth who is there to make sure events go the way the Kossuthan temple wants it to
23:42:57 <Mekkis> sounds good
23:43:00 <Mekkis> and direction?
23:43:29 <Mekkis> (this is where I invite you to be as ambitious as you want)
23:43:53 <Jevouse> (could you please do a conversion of black flame zealot? pleaseee)
23:44:02 <Mekkis> complete mage?
23:45:26 <Mekkis> complete divine

23:45:28 <Mekkis> sure
23:46:01 <Jevouse> well, i am a fledgling member of the black flame zealots
23:46:22 <Jevouse> the aim of our order is to defeat anyone who opposes the power of the church of kossuth
23:46:28 <Jevouse> (even if it means killing zulkirs!)
23:46:42 <Jevouse> (BWAHAHAHA)
23:47:36 <Mekkis> yes, I can
23:47:42 <Mekkis> but first...
23:47:46 <Mekkis> are you sure you're cleric 5
23:47:53 <Mekkis> not cleric 4 / rogue 1?
23:48:32 <Mekkis> (you need sneak attack)
23:51:39 <Jevouse> aw buggrit
23:52:17 <Jevouse> only rogues have sneak attack?
23:53:53 <Mekkis> rogues, assassins, arcane tricksters, master spies
23:54:59 <Jevouse> moment.
23:55:11 <Jevouse> assassin?
23:56:20 <Jevouse> where's that from
23:56:23 <Jevouse> its not in the APG or CPG
23:57:51 <Jevouse> oh wait, it is
23:58:01 <Jevouse> its a prestige class ,my bad
23:58:17 <Mekkis> oh, an Red Mantis, but that's a different setting so Just No
