09:39:12 <Namagem> Interesting
09:49:28 <Namagem> Mojang, the company who made minecraft is doing a project this weekend
09:49:35 <Namagem> In which they take two polls
09:49:47 <Namagem> One for theme, and one for game style
09:50:02 <Namagem> And take the highest and lowest contenders for each
09:50:07 <tristen> heheh just add money
09:50:08 <Namagem> And smash them together
09:50:16 <Namagem> Actually,it's all going to charity
09:50:22 <Namagem> All of it
09:50:25 <tristen> no i mean to make it happen
09:50:53 <Namagem> Right now, it's a Steampunk/Ancient Egypt RTS/Beatemup
09:51:00 <Namagem> http://www.mojang.com/2012/02/15/humble-bundle-mojam/
09:52:33 <tristen> heheh i voted dungeon crawler / fantasy
09:59:55 <Hydrazine> yo.
10:03:37 <tristen> heya hydrazine
10:03:43 <tristen> man i've been busy
10:03:56 <tristen> wanna see some cool shit?
10:04:59 <tristen> http://www.journeyo.com/public/game/bofwimwapakhsbvmqsmzhloqqccfin
10:06:33 <tristen> i've got it now so it switches maps
10:06:41 <tristen> the gm can set everything up in advance...
10:06:51 <tristen> the players just lob onto the single page
10:07:00 <tristen> and never have to reload/refresh or anything like that
10:07:47 <tristen> still got a bit of work to do
10:07:56 <tristen> but it's getting there...
10:11:42 Mort- has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
10:18:53 <Namagem> That's actually really cool
10:26:42 <tristen> cheers!
10:27:00 <tristen> i've spent the last couple of weeks getting it to that stage...
10:28:35 <tristen> actually soon i could do with some playtesting if you're interested?
10:33:12 <MekkisScreen> tristen: what are you running?
10:36:34 <tristen> i probably need to run something to test this bloody webpage
10:36:59 <tristen> it's scary good
10:37:12 <tristen> the dm doesn't see the out-of-character chat window at all XD
10:37:30 <tristen> so the players can blahblah away to their hearts content without spamming the dm
10:38:06 <tristen> have you see it mekkis?
10:38:10 <tristen> the latest?
10:38:21 <tristen> seen*
10:42:13 <MekkisScreen> yes
10:42:19 <MekkisScreen> !throw 1d20
10:42:19 <diebot> MekkisScreen, 1d20: [1d20=5] 5
10:43:51 <tristen> i'm like a code monkey on crack atm
10:43:54 <diebot> this is being sent from sendtoIRC.sh testing interprocess communication
10:44:04 Nodwik has quit (Connection reset by peer)
11:02:40 <MekkisScreen> !throw 1d20
11:02:41 <diebot> MekkisScreen, 1d20: [1d20=11] 11
11:10:07 <Namagem> Can someone link the PF big pdf of pregens?
11:10:47 <diebot> this is a test of a socket-based IRC relay
11:21:25 <tristen> yeah one sec
11:21:59 <tristen> http://www.pathfinderdb.com/character-sheets/48-fan-created-sheets/145-pathfinder-society-pregens-for-the-pathfinder-rpg
11:24:48 <diebot> another test....
11:25:07 <diebot> What about if I put possible 'unsupported quotes" in it`
11:25:46 <MekkisScreen> tristen: what IP is your server running on?
11:26:18 <tristen> 203.214.66.249
11:26:28 <tristen> no ipv6 atm for the site though...
11:26:37 <tristen> never got round, er, tuit
11:27:22 <tristen> actually i'd actually be happy if you brought my web server down
11:27:29 <tristen> it's not that hardened
11:28:05 <tristen> it's pretty stable though i think i've hammered it with all sorts of stuff
11:29:52 Nodwik ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
11:35:46 <Hydrazine> wheres the other brian?
11:38:09 <tristen> he's an imposter
11:38:31 <Hydrazine> having a look now.
11:38:34 <Hydrazine> show me the map change?
11:39:24 <Hydrazine> cooool
12:04:32 <diebot> test
12:10:57 <tristen> hey mekkis i saw the bad request!
12:11:01 <tristen> if you did it
12:11:16 <tristen> feel free to do that a million times :)
12:11:19 <tristen> i want it to break
12:27:54 <diebot> test
12:34:01 <MekkisScreen> ;5~;5~I didn't do any request
12:34:19 <Avatar> I tried using it on my phone the other day and it broke
12:34:20 <MekkisScreen> tristen: how are you handling the chat?
12:36:50 WooMod ([email protected]) has left #d&d
12:37:29 <tristen> mekkis: just through ajax
12:37:53 <tristen> or do you mean the presentation of the chat?
12:39:31 <tristen> which phone avatar?
12:39:39 <tristen> http://www.journeyo.com/public/game/bofwimwapakhsbvmqsmzhloqqccfin
12:39:45 <tristen> maybe just go there?
12:39:59 <tristen> i think those old links are broken now
12:40:11 <MekkisScreen> what I mean is the backend
12:40:20 <tristen> but i've been working on it continuously so you might have just caught it at a bad time
12:40:32 <tristen> c++ and postgresql
12:40:47 <tristen> my own engine
12:40:52 <MekkisScreen> could you get it to dump each chat line to a tcp port?
12:41:02 <tristen> yep!
12:41:17 <MekkisScreen> specifically nl.ti4200.info:2000
12:41:22 <tristen> ok
12:41:29 <tristen> gimme a sec
12:41:37 <tristen> do you want me to open/send/close?
12:41:48 <tristen> or maintain an open connection?
12:42:24 <Avatar> ok I have 94 gig to download by midnight tonight !!
12:42:27 <Avatar> what should I download ?
12:43:01 <tristen> the internet!
12:43:20 <Avatar> you can do that ??
12:43:26 <tristen> XD
12:43:38 <Hydrazine> if you google search for google, you can break the internet.
12:43:51 <tristen> woah man that's deep!
12:44:22 <Hydrazine> 94 gigs of pron?
12:44:28 <Hydrazine> you can make a song about it.

12:44:52 <tristen> LOL
12:45:11 <Hydrazine> get some down, fap like a hound, 93 gigs or pron..
12:47:59 <tristen> actually mekkis how about i send it to that address as a http packet?
12:48:09 <tristen> or a get request
12:48:34 <tristen> i'd like to just allow the dm to specify where to send chats
12:48:44 <tristen> ie:
12:48:58 <MekkisScreen> ummm
12:49:03 <tristen> http://nl.ti4200.info:2000?text=blahblah&from=brian
12:49:10 <MekkisScreen> no...
12:49:22 <tristen> well maybe not THAT address
12:49:25 <MekkisScreen> that would not be good
12:49:32 <tristen> but do you have a php page that can receive them?
12:49:41 <MekkisScreen> no
12:49:58 <MekkisScreen> I have a socket that can receive them from your server
12:50:05 <MekkisScreen> not from the client
12:50:25 <tristen> yeah i'll make the request from the server
12:50:28 <tristen> (not the client)
12:50:30 <MekkisScreen> and not as http!
12:50:34 <tristen> lolol
12:50:35 <tristen> ok
12:50:44 <tristen> gimme a bit...
12:50:58 <MekkisScreen> plain text
12:52:20 <tristen> yeah just newline terminated yeah?
12:52:45 <MekkisScreen> yeah
12:53:07 <MekkisScreen> probably \r\n
12:53:25 <MekkisScreen> no fancy stuff like telnet
12:53:30 <MekkisScreen> just raw text

12:55:06 <tristen> heheh
12:55:20 <tristen> ok do you want me to tie it to the chat thingie?
12:56:31 <MekkisScreen> perhaps
12:56:35 <tristen> actually i'll send three in a row
12:56:36 <tristen> one sec
12:56:39 <MekkisScreen> probably
12:57:00 <diebot> one
12:57:01 <diebot> two
12:57:01 <diebot> three
12:57:11 <tristen> seems legit

13:01:40 <diebot> [url=http://www.google.com]google[/url]
13:01:50 <tristen> heheh
13:02:03 <tristen> well there you go - it needs more formatting, but yeah it'll work
13:06:11 <MekkisScreen> and the bold stuff
13:07:06 <MekkisScreen> sed s/\[\/?b\]/\001/g or something
13:07:16 <diebot> [b]bold[/b]
13:07:28 <diebot> [i]italic[/i]
13:07:32 <MekkisScreen> (you send \001 rather than [b])
13:07:37 <diebot> [u]underline[/u]
13:07:40 <MekkisScreen> and IRC doesn't understand italics
13:07:45 <MekkisScreen> or underlining
13:07:52 <diebot> [url]http://www.google.com[/url]
13:07:58 <diebot> [url=http://www.google.com]google[/url]
13:07:58 <MekkisScreen> or URLs
13:09:43 <MekkisScreen> "We live in a world that has rules, and those rules have to be guarded by men with dice. Who's gonna do it? You? I have a greater responsibility than you could possibly fathom. You weep for comments on your chronicle sheet, and you curse the society. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know. That flying mount's legality, while tragic, probably saved characters. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you
13:10:21 <tristen> don't stop there! that's gold!
13:10:30 <MekkisScreen> sorry
13:10:36 <MekkisScreen> irssi doesn't split it up
13:10:53 <tristen> rant of the century that!
13:11:10 <MekkisScreen> "We live in a world that has rules, and those rules have to be guarded by men with dice. Who's gonna do it? You?

13:11:15 <MekkisScreen> "That flying mount's legality, while tragic, probably saved characters. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves characters. You don't want the truth because deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want me in this role, you need me in this role.
13:11:20 <MekkisScreen> "We use words like explore, report, cooperate. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very rules that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide them.
13:11:25 <MekkisScreen> "I would rather you just said thank you, and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up some dice, and play. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you are entitled to."
13:15:24 <Hydrazine> Whats all this from?
13:15:25 <tristen> a few good men...
13:15:37 <tristen> well lifted from a few good men
13:15:49 <Hydrazine> ah.
13:16:42 <Avatar> "let me do what I want, however tragic, thank me for it, and piss off"
13:19:59 <tristen> hehe
13:26:02 <MekkisScreen> I still think the BOFH verseion of that is better
13:29:33 <MekkisScreen> 15 lines:
13:29:51 <MekkisScreen> objections?
13:30:55 <MekkisScreen> Bastard: "You want answers?"
13:30:56 <MekkisScreen> Boss: "I think I'm entitled to them!"
13:30:56 <MekkisScreen> Bastard: "YOU WANT ANSWERS?"
13:30:56 <MekkisScreen> Boss: "I want the truth!"
13:30:56 <MekkisScreen> Bastard: YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!
13:30:58 <MekkisScreen> Son, processes live on a system that has finite resource. Resources guarded by people with System Admin experience! Who's going to look after that system? You? The support guy who drools so much he has a drip tray?
13:31:02 <MekkisScreen> I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom.
13:31:04 <MekkisScreen> You weep for lost sessions and curse system admins - you have that luxury! You have the luxury of not knowing what I know - that session killing, while tragic, saves resource - And my existence, while incomprehensible and expensive to you - saves resource!"
13:31:08 <MekkisScreen> You don't want the truth because deep down, in places you don't like to talk about at user group meetings, WANT me on the system - you NEED me on the system!"
13:31:11 <MekkisScreen> We use words like "I/O wait", "Pagefaults", and "CPUtime", as a backbone of a life spent sorting out user-caused problems. You use them as a cop-out for downtime at Management meetings.
13:31:15 <MekkisScreen> I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a person who connects and disconnects under the very blanket of the very performance I provide, then QUESTIONS the manner in which I provide it. I'd rather you left a nice message with helldesk.
13:31:19 <MekkisScreen> Or read a linux admin manual and checked out the performance monitors. Either way, I don't give a DAMN what you think you are entitled to!"
13:31:22 <MekkisScreen> Boss: "Did you kill -9 the Database Server?"
13:31:25 <MekkisScreen> Bastard: "I did my job - I kept the system running!"
13:31:27 <MekkisScreen> Boss: "Did you kill -9 the Database Server?!"

13:32:36 Namagem has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
13:35:44 <tristen> that's pretty funny
13:36:06 <tristen> i've gotten so used to kill -9 i just do it out of habit
13:36:54 <MekkisScreen> that's horrible!
13:37:09 <MekkisScreen> you should use -2 and -15 (and -14) before you use -9
13:37:37 <MekkisScreen> (FYI, every time you send something to diebot, there's a kill -SIGUSR1 that gets sent to diebot...)
13:38:45 <diebot> one
13:38:46 <diebot> two
13:38:46 <diebot> three
13:38:50 <tristen> that time?
13:51:43 <Avatar> https://plus.google.com/photos/107982618909749811163/albums/5709463957214126609/5709463958681668498
13:53:40 <MekkisScreen> each time
13:53:55 <MekkisScreen> diebot reads from a named pipe when it receives SIGUSR1
13:54:05 <MekkisScreen> how do I access the chronicle sheet generator>?
13:55:22 <Avatar> told you last night
13:55:43 <Avatar> or the other day you asked about it
13:56:13 <MekkisScreen> ah
13:56:14 <MekkisScreen> PM
13:56:18 <MekkisScreen> I keep forgetting to check them
13:57:08 <MekkisScreen> I'm trying to work out Itzamna's total worth
13:58:11 <tristen> mekkis it's probably happening because i'm shutting the connection down each time i send
13:58:17 <tristen> it won't always be like that
13:58:28 <tristen> but for the moment it will
13:58:54 <MekkisScreen> it always will
13:58:57 <MekkisScreen> and that's by design
13:59:05 <tristen> well i mean to say
13:59:13 <tristen> i'll try and keep the connection open
14:03:55 <MekkisScreen> how much gold does Song of the Sea Witch give you at tier 3-4?
14:05:29 <tristen> was that the "wuss" tier we uptiered from?
14:05:35 <Avatar> 1315
14:05:45 <Avatar> oh yeah we uptiered
14:05:48 <Avatar> 3382
14:05:58 <Avatar> pretty sexy gold
14:06:01 <tristen> (sings) sweet loot
14:07:21 <MekkisScreen> no
14:07:31 <MekkisScreen> I was working out how much gold Itzamna had
14:07:39 <MekkisScreen> 4393
14:07:49 <MekkisScreen> Avatar: when are you planning on running QFP?
14:08:08 <Avatar> week after next if you're doing BTD 2 next week
14:08:13 <MekkisScreen> ok
14:08:19 <MekkisScreen> so Itzamna should be level 4 by then
14:08:20 <Avatar> unless tristen or someone else wants to DM
14:08:23 <MekkisScreen> will that be a problem
14:08:35 <Avatar> why would that be a problem
14:08:44 <MekkisScreen> the tier
14:08:55 <Avatar> I don't know, depends who is coming
14:09:01 <Avatar> I'm not pre-planning the tier
14:09:28 <Avatar> isnt' Itzamna brand new
14:09:40 <Avatar> are you playing 9 games between now and then
14:10:31 <MekkisScreen> no
14:10:36 <MekkisScreen> GM credit
14:10:59 <Avatar> you're meant to use that as soon as possible when you get it, aren't you
14:11:31 <MekkisScreen> not really
14:11:38 <MekkisScreen> you can keep them lying around
14:11:58 <MekkisScreen> mysql keeps crashing
14:12:18 <Avatar> A GM who runs a module may likewise apply the
14:12:18 <Avatar> Chronicle sheet to one of her Pathfinder Society characters.
14:12:19 <Avatar> The GM must decide which of her characters will receive
14:12:19 <Avatar> the Chronicle sheet at the time when the module is
14:12:19 <Avatar> completed and the Chronicle sheets are filled out
14:13:19 <MekkisScreen> yeah
14:13:24 <Avatar> sounds like you will be playing at level 1
14:13:28 <MekkisScreen> well, I dump them all onto 10339-6
14:13:37 <MekkisScreen> even if I don't get around to writing up the sheet
14:13:46 <Avatar> what is 10339-6
14:13:48 <MekkisScreen> unless it's first steps credit
14:13:54 <MekkisScreen> in which case it's 10339-8
14:14:14 <MekkisScreen> my nextt character
14:14:17 <MekkisScreen> obviously
14:14:26 <Avatar> what
14:14:47 <MekkisScreen> his faction's been declared
14:14:54 <MekkisScreen> nothing else is required
14:15:18 <Avatar> oh, he doesn't have a name
14:15:32 <MekkisScreen> I'll change it when I get put into that position, yeah
14:15:47 <Avatar> do you mean -8 doesn't have a name, or -6
14:15:52 <MekkisScreen> neither
14:16:00 <MekkisScreen> 10339-7 does
14:16:18 <MekkisScreen> 10339-8 is a gnome
14:16:49 <MekkisScreen> as is 10339-6
14:20:46 <Avatar> you'd better send me that char sheet well before the game starts

14:34:20 <MekkisScreen> \if you send two lines, it will put two lines on IRC
14:34:23 <MekkisScreen> \simple
14:34:26 <tristen> yeah and if that line is one helluva long line?
14:34:40 <MekkisScreen> it'll truncate to approx 350 characteres
14:34:47 <tristen> there we go
14:34:48 <Mort-> Hydrazine
14:34:50 <MekkisScreen> (or the IRC server will)
14:34:54 <tristen> yes

14:36:22 <Mort-> Lol
14:37:02 <MekkisScreen> yeah
14:38:11 <MekkisScreen> but how often to people actually send something of that size?
14:40:34 <tristen> whenever the dm has to post a wall of text?
14:40:38 <tristen> fairly often
14:40:48 <tristen> actually very often
14:41:07 <MekkisScreen> yes
14:41:13 <MekkisScreen> but it's several lines
14:41:15 <MekkisScreen> isn't it?
14:41:34 <tristen> dunno, but if it's all on one line i'm not fussed
14:41:39 <tristen> it'll just wrap in html
14:41:51 <tristen> but i can make sure i put a cr every so many characters
14:41:54 <tristen> easy

15:04:45 <MekkisScreen> :S
15:48:16 <Avatar> interview went OK
15:48:23 <Avatar> 32 applicants for the same position, though :|
15:50:35 <Mort-> Good luck
15:50:39 <Mort-> What was it for
15:50:44 <Mort-> The job i mean
15:50:56 <Avatar> quality assurance
15:51:23 <Mort-> For what
15:51:29 <Mort-> Is it a permanent job?
15:51:33 <Avatar> an insurance company
15:51:35 <Avatar> yeah, permanent
15:52:01 <Mort-> Cool
15:52:04 <Mort-> Sounds good
15:52:13 <Mort-> Insurance companies are rich :d
15:52:18 <Mort-> Mine is contract
15:57:40 <Avatar> it's a top notch position
15:58:08 <Mort-> Cool :d
15:58:14 <Mort-> Be nice and charming :d
15:58:27 <Avatar> but I am not nice and charming
15:58:34 * Mort- uses bit of luck on avatar
15:58:36 <Avatar> I am mean and grumpy
15:58:36 <Mort-> :d
15:58:39 <Mort-> Lol
16:00:30 <MekkisScreen> you're supposed to be
16:00:37 <MekkisScreen> at an insurance company!
16:01:06 <Avatar> apparently not, at this one
16:01:06 <Mort-> Not if you doing front line sales
16:01:11 <Mort-> I can be pretty sweet
16:01:16 <Mort-> If i want to be
16:01:24 <Mort-> :d
16:02:04 <MekkisScreen> you're in QA right?
16:02:26 <Avatar> yeah they still don't want you to be a dickhead
16:02:28 <Mort-> He still has to talk to people :o
16:02:38 <MekkisScreen> so you need to tell the developers, "Terribly sorry, but it seems that there's a MASSIVE BUG in your software that will cause us to lose MILLIONS of DOLLARS per DAY!"
16:02:46 <MekkisScreen> :)
16:02:57 <Mort-> What you working as mek
16:02:59 <Avatar> you gotta be diplomatic
16:03:00 <Mort-> In rl
16:03:08 <MekkisScreen> one of those developers
16:03:18 <MekkisScreen> without a decent QA department
16:03:19 <Mort-> Sounds like avatar needs some cha
16:03:24 <Mort-> Or diplomacy
16:03:51 <Avatar> my diplomacy is fantastic
16:03:55 <Avatar> it might have saved me
16:04:35 <Mort-> Cool
16:09:50 <tristen> hey avatar i'd be interested to see how this behaves in your phone: http://www.journeyo.com/public/game/bofwimwapakhsbvmqsmzhloqqccfin
16:09:54 <tristen> or you mort
16:10:03 <Avatar> you need a QR code
16:10:37 <Mort-> I see site
16:10:37 <Avatar> http://qrcode.kaywa.com/img.php?s=8&d=http%3A%2F%2Fhttp%3A%2F%2Fwww.journeyo.com%2Fpublic%2Fgame%2Fbofwimwapakhsbvmqsmzhloqqccfin
16:10:59 <Mort-> Can't do anything on site
16:11:03 <tristen> mort do you see the map change?
16:11:20 <tristen> should be swamp now?
16:11:31 <Mort-> I see bar
16:11:33 <Mort-> Still
16:11:37 <tristen> no mort you can't do anything on that page except view
16:11:48 <Mort-> Oh now i see swamp
16:11:51 <tristen> excellent!
16:11:52 <Mort-> alligator!
16:11:55 <tristen> hahah
16:12:00 <Avatar> http://qrcode.kaywa.com/img.php?s=8&d=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.journeyo.com%2Fpublic%2Fgame%2Fbofwimwapakhsbvmqsmzhloqqccfin
16:12:02 <tristen> now back to bar?
16:12:02 * Mort- hides
16:12:03 <Avatar> that one is better
16:12:09 <tristen> excellent
16:12:14 <Mort-> They like lemurs too much :(
16:12:30 <tristen> and pathfinders
16:12:45 <Mort-> Bar!
16:12:56 <Mort-> Actually i think that game
16:13:03 <tristen> so you think it's important for the gm to see out-of-character chat?
16:13:12 <tristen> do*
16:13:13 <Avatar> tristen: can't type in either chat
16:13:16 <Mort-> You guys could have kited the c
16:13:18 <Mort-> Around
16:13:20 <Avatar> takes a few seconds to load the entire chat history
16:13:24 <Mort-> And killed in by range
16:13:29 <tristen> no you can only type in chat if you're logged in AND you're one of the players
16:13:41 <Mort-> As long as you guys played it smart
16:13:54 <Avatar> forget that
16:13:57 <Avatar> just put ban options in
16:14:03 <tristen> avatar yeah a chat is only as long as a game
16:14:12 <Avatar> yeah but this chat is already huge
16:14:20 <tristen> yeah i've been spamming it :)
16:14:28 <Avatar> does it look like 4 hours worth of chat
16:14:31 <tristen> but when a new game starts it will always be empty
16:14:44 <tristen> well you don't have to worry about it when you're playing
16:14:50 <Avatar> trying to scroll to the bottom of that and back up every time you need to look at the map will be a problem
16:14:54 <tristen> because it only downloads the last chat as it happens
16:14:57 * Mort- bounces
16:15:15 <tristen> woah - hang on the chat should only be little
16:15:20 <tristen> and with a scroll-bar
16:15:36 <Avatar> no, it's huge
16:15:38 <tristen> heheh
16:15:45 <Avatar> there is a scroll bar but I don't think that works
16:15:46 <tristen> what browser?
16:15:53 <tristen> is it opera mini?
16:15:59 <tristen> or opera mobile?
16:16:02 <Avatar> opera mobile
16:16:10 <tristen> wow ok that's a problemo
16:16:20 <tristen> how about for you mort?
16:16:24 <tristen> same?
16:16:38 <Mort-> I use opera mobile
16:16:45 <tristen> and the chat thing on that page?
16:16:48 <tristen> is it huge?
16:16:56 <Mort-> I am not actively testing
16:17:04 <tristen> never mind...
16:17:14 <Mort-> Don't see biat
16:17:16 <Mort-> Chat
16:17:20 <Mort-> It empty
16:17:33 <tristen> where it says "in character"
16:17:34 <tristen> ?
16:17:37 <tristen> that's empty?
16:18:12 <Avatar> took a while to load for me
16:18:15 <Avatar> it looked empty
16:18:31 <MekkisScreen> we can get the chat streamed to IRC :)
16:18:59 <Mort-> Its empty pull for me
16:19:02 <Mort-> Still
16:19:19 <tristen> hit refresh mort?
16:20:22 <Mort-> I see it now
16:20:33 <tristen> is it going WAY down the page?
16:20:40 <tristen> or do you get the chat in a scrollable box?
16:21:37 <tristen> ie: can you see the chat from hydra and the gm?
16:48:32 <Avatar> :o)
16:55:38 <Thelen> :D
17:03:49 <tristen> avatar yeah i can see that fucking opera problemo...
17:03:56 <tristen> damn it all
17:04:02 <tristen> there's always one
17:04:19 <tristen> (i mean troublesome browser)
17:06:31 <Avatar> don't knock opera
17:06:37 <Avatar> opera ftw
17:07:55 <Avatar> trying it on the default android browser
17:08:07 <Avatar> doesn't seem to be loading
17:08:09 <Avatar> is it still up
17:08:53 <Avatar> yeah not loading at all, wifi
17:09:28 <Avatar> oops there she goes
17:09:49 <MekkisScreen> let's see if I get it in my version of oper
17:09:57 <Avatar> decent sizing on the chat boxes now, but I can't scroll
17:16:52 Hydrazine has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
17:18:24 <MekkisScreen> what's the URL?
17:20:04 <tristen> http://www.journeyo.com/public/game/bofwimwapakhsbvmqsmzhloqqccfin
17:20:13 <tristen> it's broke in opera
17:20:19 <tristen> i'm using an emulator thingie
17:20:25 <tristen> and it's stuffed for the moment
17:21:30 <tristen> i'll see if there's some hack or something for it...
17:25:46 <tristen> yeah i can keep the height at 200px on opera
17:25:51 <tristen> but no bloody scrolling...
17:25:53 <tristen> gah

19:44:47 <Brunius> Meh
19:44:52 <Brunius> Seen the like before
19:45:18 <Ballig> when
19:45:27 <Brunius> Dakkadakka
19:46:05 <Ballig> that's not when
19:46:48 <Brunius> I dunno
19:46:56 <Brunius> 6mths-1 year ago?
19:47:04 <Ballig> where's the link
19:47:31 <Brunius> I don't see any proof that he's a former GW employee, either.
19:47:43 <Brunius> All this is standard economics stuff
19:48:55 <Ballig> what proof did the other guy provide?
19:48:57 <Mekkis> ummm
19:49:08 <Mekkis> when I said 7pm, I meant 7pm my time
19:49:12 <Brunius> Approx none
19:58:26 <Brunius> Oh, I might not be able to DM on saturday
19:59:06 <Mekkis> what's happening?
19:59:56 <Brunius> VCE is handing out more homework than I expected
20:00:18 <Ballig> tell him that you can't do the homework because you are running a game of pathfinder society
20:00:20 <Ballig> then ask him if he wants to play
20:00:49 <Brunius> That might actually work on my physics teacher
20:01:00 <Brunius> and might have worked last year on my english teacher
20:01:53 <Ballig> that's the hot female english teacher, right
20:03:44 <Brunius> Are you an accountant from canberra, Ballig.
20:04:16 <Ballig> yes
20:04:17 <Ballig> yes I am
20:06:34 <Ballig> Mekkis: I changed the time for you, but be specific next time :p
20:09:13 <Mekkis> I said my time
20:09:49 <Ballig> well no, you said AEST
20:09:53 <Ballig> you know that is confusing for Avatar
20:10:04 <Mekkis> ah
20:10:10 <Mekkis> I'll be more specific next time
20:10:14 ChanOP gives channel operator status to Ballig
20:10:15 <Mekkis> sorry for the confusion
20:10:21 Ballig has changed the topic to: PFS: Sat 11am (Brunius, new game) / Sat 8pm (Mekkis, new game) | Sun 11am (Ballig, new game) | CoTE: TBA || All times are AEDT (UTC+11:00) | D&D and Pathfinder Online http://dnd.ballig.net
20:10:25 * Ballig removes channel operator status from Ballig
20:10:34 <Mekkis> what will you be running, Ballig?
20:10:43 <Ballig> assault on the kingdom of the impossible
20:10:54 <Mekkis> ah
20:11:02 <Mekkis> Isle of Jalmaray
20:11:57 <Mekkis> with people who speak Varisian
20:12:46 <Mekkis> wow, this Virgin Blue thing might give me a free flight home after conquest
20:13:02 <Brunius> you free flight claimer
20:13:39 <Mekkis> Brunius, should I offer to DM something at Conquest, so I won't get forced into DMing something at Conquest?
20:13:48 <Brunius> Maybe.
20:14:14 <Mekkis> what do you want me to DM in person?
20:14:17 <Mekkis> BTD2?
20:14:19 <Mekkis> :)
20:14:45 <Brunius> Ye gads
20:17:11 <Ballig> darkest vengeance
20:17:28 <Mekkis> no way
20:17:42 <Mekkis> unless someone runs midnight mauler really well
20:17:55 <Mekkis> (iirc, Darkwhite mused about running it in here)
20:21:00 <Mekkis> I'm tossing up between Aquatic and Quadrupod
20:21:44 <Brunius> Take aquatic
20:23:32 <Ballig> name the summoner Aquaman
20:25:50 <Mekkis> I noticed that the eidolon in Before The Dawn 1 has a +16 to perception!
20:25:53 <Mekkis> and Sense Motive
20:26:06 <Ballig> it's very perceptive
20:27:49 <Mekkis> I think I'll try aquatic and change into a Quadruped next level
20:30:03 <Mekkis> see how much not having pounce hurts
20:30:17 <Mekkis> stupid "only Quadruped base forms can pounce" BS
20:32:42 <Mekkis> hmmm
20:32:48 <Mekkis> Reach or Improved Natural Attack?
20:33:21 <Mort-> Wahoo
20:33:23 <Mort-> I'm out
20:33:36 <Mort-> And today i got to talk to hydrazine
20:33:58 * Mort- has a blissful look on her face
20:34:51 <Mort-> Well it ended up a very stunned and dead eidolon
20:35:07 <Mort-> I swear next time I'm bringing smelling salts
20:35:13 <Mekkis> what should I give my eidolon?
20:35:19 <Mort-> In case i spray my allies by mistake
20:35:22 <Mort-> A tail!
20:35:25 <Mekkis> Reach, Improved Natural Attack, or Skilled
20:35:26 <Mort-> Paws
20:35:32 <Mort-> Furry muzzle
20:35:35 <Mekkis> I only have 1 evolution point letf
20:35:37 <Mekkis> left
20:35:42 <Mort-> Brown fur!
20:35:42 <Mekkis> and it's not that type of eidolon
20:35:46 <Mort-> Id say reach
20:35:48 <Mort-> Gah
20:35:58 <Mort-> I thought you would get a lemur
20:36:06 <Mort-> Reach is invaluable as a tank type
20:36:34 <Mort-> like those ds that can hit at 10 ft are nasty
20:36:54 <Mort-> Eidolon with reach should get combat reflexes :-)
20:37:10 <Mekkis> screw that: Power attack!
20:37:47 <Mort-> Lol
20:37:56 <Mort-> Reach first? :d
20:38:56 <Mekkis> actually
20:38:57 <Mort-> What's your eidolons damage like
20:38:58 <Mekkis> Bite!
20:39:11 <Mekkis> a lot less than it will be at 5th level
20:40:01 <Mort-> Ok but you haven't told me how much you will be doing in one combat round
20:40:01 <Mort-> Which reminds me
20:40:07 <Mekkis> what's a better attack routine?
20:40:08 <Mort-> Hydrazine says he can make the 8 pm game
20:40:24 <Mekkis> bite/claw/claw/claw or bite/slam/claw/claw?
20:40:31 <Mort-> Since mort is busy. Khaz/kendra will pop out?
20:40:46 <Mort-> Slam has status element to it?
20:41:09 <Mort-> Slam sound cool because it gives blugeoning damage
20:41:24 <Mort-> Else looks all piercing and slashing damage
20:41:39 <Mekkis> bite is all three
20:41:53 <Mekkis> I think clawing is more appropriate

21:02:15 <Jaggedsoul> I was wondr'n why Mibbit is acting up
21:02:33 <Jaggedsoul> to do what Avatar?
21:02:38 <Mort-> Lol
21:03:00 <Mekkis> hmm
21:03:02 <Mekkis> what feats?
21:03:47 <Jaggedsoul> I think I just landed into the middle of a conversation?
21:04:32 <Mekkis> nbt really
21:05:02 <Mort-> Vol you reach!
21:05:56 <Mekkis> so a summoner can't change his eidolon's skills or feats
21:06:14 <Jaggedsoul> what feats?
21:07:54 <Mort-> Told you
21:09:18 <Avatar> things
21:10:52 <Mekkis> hmmm
21:10:59 <Mekkis> looks like you also can't change base form
21:11:05 <Mekkis> :(
21:14:06 <Avatar> er, really
21:14:12 <Avatar> that breaks my summoner
21:14:51 <Avatar> well, maybe not
21:15:25 <Mekkis> looks like I need to make my eidolon a quadrupod now
21:15:31 <Mekkis> rather than next level
21:16:03 <Avatar> don't think we can do that now?
21:16:21 <Mekkis> I can
21:16:27 <Mekkis> he's never played a session :)
21:16:37 <Avatar> oh you have more than one summoner
21:17:05 <Mekkis> yes
21:17:06 <Avatar> WhyisTashestaken: tashes isn't taken
21:18:58 <tristen> avatar: http://www.journeyo.com/public/game/bofwimwapakhsbvmqsmzhloqqccfin
21:19:06 <tristen> can you look at that with opera again?
21:19:28 <tristen> it seems ok-ish now...
21:19:39 <tristen> have to click those up/down/top/bottom links to scroll though
21:19:50 <tristen> opera mobile doesn't support the native scrolling...
21:21:16 <Mekkis> tristen, what's up with the google ads?
21:21:32 <Mekkis> or adchoices
21:21:34 <Mekkis> or whatever
21:21:36 <tristen> dunno?
21:21:49 <tristen> i can't see them - i adblock :)
21:21:58 <tristen> are they messed up or something?
21:22:05 <Mekkis> they exist
21:22:06 <Mekkis> why?
21:22:30 <Avatar> can't talk, playing AC:R
21:22:43 <tristen> i thought you were asking if something was wrong with them
21:23:34 <tristen> are you asking me why do they exist?
21:23:53 <Mekkis> yeah
21:24:08 <tristen> generally? or on that page?
21:24:15 <Mekkis> on your server
21:24:26 <tristen> i put them on every page automatically
21:24:35 <Mekkis> does it make you much $?
21:24:48 <tristen> no it doesn't make me a cent
21:25:06 <Mekkis> then why do you do it?
21:25:35 <tristen> because i might make some beer money one day?
21:27:13 <Mekkis> looks like my eidolon will have less armour
21:32:19 <Mort-> Hydra can make it for your game mek
21:32:47 <Mort-> Look foward partying with him
21:33:21 <Mort-> Pity both khaz and kendra aren't packrats
21:37:29 Jaggedsoul has quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
21:39:54 <tristen> yeah hydra's awesome
21:40:05 <tristen> he was talking to me earlier about SUPER-RANGER
21:40:22 <tristen> i thought i'd have to waste a feat on weapon specialisation
21:40:33 <tristen> in order to get that point blank master thing
21:40:42 <tristen> but i don't!
21:40:48 <tristen> i can just get it
21:40:53 <tristen> but rapid shot first
21:40:54 <Mekkis> weapon specialisation isn't a waste!
21:41:38 <tristen> it is when you only get a combat feat every 4 or 5 levels...
21:42:02 <tristen> oh wait weapon focus...
21:43:00 <tristen> dang it
21:43:06 <tristen> i need one or the other...
21:43:41 <tristen> i chose a stupid feat
21:43:47 <tristen> "deadly aim"
21:43:53 <tristen> deadly aim my arse what a waste
21:44:15 <Mekkis> it's not a waste!
21:44:46 <tristen> lol no - i'm such a buffoon
21:45:02 <tristen> Trade ranged attack bonus for damage
21:45:15 <tristen> i haven't been using that...
21:45:28 <tristen> +10 to hit atm
21:45:37 <tristen> shit shit shit
21:45:52 <Mekkis> -1 to attack
21:45:54 <Mekkis> +2 to damage
21:45:59 <Mekkis> GOOD TRADE!
21:46:06 <Mort-> It is
21:46:32 <Mort-> Same reason why my magus will take pa
21:47:09 <Mort-> Why do the boards say fighters are not good?
21:47:11 <tristen> still it's pretty crappy
21:47:25 <Mekkis> Mort-, the boards say that about a lot of things
21:47:32 <tristen> i'd rather get in a second shot...
21:47:33 <Mekkis> I disagree
21:47:47 <Mekkis> it's just that fighters are really difficult to make
21:48:01 <Mort-> Hitomi is my hero ^^
21:48:05 <Mort-> Lol
21:48:13 <tristen> hitomi is everyone's hero!
21:48:22 <Mort-> Yes!
21:48:30 <tristen> (but i don't want to sit in his lap)
21:48:44 * Mort- cheers thelen
21:49:16 <Mort-> How hard it it to make a fighter
21:49:23 <Mort-> Wear plate
21:49:39 <tristen> you just say "wear this plate"
21:49:40 <Mort-> Get big sword
21:49:43 <Mort-> Start hitting
21:50:07 <tristen> man those hits on the sea witch were the stuff of legen
21:50:08 <tristen> d
21:50:17 <Mort-> Yeah
21:50:31 <tristen> i'm certain buck lives because of it
21:50:46 <Mort-> Khaz reaction to that kind of thing
21:50:57 <Mort-> Not entirely sure
21:51:08 <Mekkis> Mort-, that's exactly how to be very bored
21:51:09 <tristen> what would we have done if hitomi hadn't killed it?
21:51:12 <Mekkis> and hardly effective
21:51:16 <Mort-> He had 13rounds
21:51:22 <Mort-> To live
21:51:36 <Mort-> I was thinking of cutting tentacles
21:51:38 <Mort-> Actually
21:51:45 <tristen> yeah but what could any of us done if it was out of reach?
21:51:53 <Mort-> Not much
21:51:57 <tristen> nada
21:52:03 <Mort-> His ac is sick
21:52:09 <tristen> and there was no way buck was grappling free
21:52:18 <Mort-> Yeah
21:52:19 <tristen> or wrestling or whatever
21:52:24 <tristen> he's lucky as
21:52:57 <Mort-> I swear i won't go out without grease again
21:53:10 <tristen> heheh
21:53:15 <Mort-> And not without glitter dust either
21:53:15 <Mekkis> tristen, you know you can use deadly aim and rapid shot together?
21:53:22 <Mort-> Yeah
21:53:36 <Mort-> He only has one feat though
21:53:43 <Mort-> He has to choose
21:53:46 <tristen> man i hate rapid shot
21:53:54 <Mort-> Why
21:53:59 <tristen> because i don't have it
21:54:03 <Mort-> Lol
21:54:09 <Mort-> Get it then
21:54:24 <Mort-> Can't wait to play with hydra
21:54:32 <tristen> i will! that's why i'm cranky is because i got that crappy deadly aim before i took rapid shot
21:54:44 <Mort-> Ill leave him to do all the talking
21:54:52 <Mort-> Lol
21:55:08 <Mort-> Khaz doesn't like to talk
21:55:16 <Mekkis> my Eidolon will take Antagonize!
21:55:18 <Mort-> He is quiet
21:55:27 <Mort-> Whats that
21:55:55 <Mekkis> http://www.d20pfsrd.com/feats/general-feats/antagonize
21:56:38 <tristen> woo
21:56:44 <tristen> that's awesome
21:57:02 <tristen> On its next turn, the target must attempt to make a melee attack against you.
21:57:25 <Mekkis> that's right
21:57:50 <Mort-> Yes but only once per day per creature
21:57:59 <Mekkis> so?
21:58:03 <Mort-> Do it only once
21:58:15 <Mekkis> "YOU HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THAT - SCRAWNY WIZARD!"
21:58:21 <tristen> XD
21:58:22 <Mort-> Like daze
21:58:27 <Mort-> Oh lol
21:58:30 <Mekkis> "WHY DON'T YOU COME OVER HERE AND HIT ME WITH YOUR QUARTERSTAFF THEN!"
21:58:32 <Mort-> Poor guy
21:58:41 <Mort-> Has to run over
21:58:42 <tristen> aoo city
21:58:48 <Mekkis> (so I can kill you while you're not casting spells)
21:58:52 <Mort-> Tell that to khaz
21:59:16 <Mort-> He will say he has a problem and charge
21:59:20 <Mort-> Lol
21:59:42 <Mort-> But may not be good idea
21:59:44 <Mort-> 17
21:59:51 <Mort-> Ac
21:59:54 <Mekkis> then I'll claw claw claw bite him
22:00:08 <Mekkis> !throw 4#1d20+6

22:01:06 <Mekkis> level 4
22:01:10 <Mort-> Really?
22:01:20 <Mort-> Obviously
22:01:20 <tristen> still there's a near death experience for someone right there
22:01:25 <Mekkis> oh, and make a reflex save vs grease!
22:01:33 <tristen> erk
22:01:38 <tristen> he slimed me
22:01:39 <Mort-> Khaz will splat

22:02:54 <Mekkis> she has 4 limbs

22:03:09 <Mekkis> she's taken the limbs evolution 4 times
22:04:27 <tristen> powerful shit those eidelons

22:06:04 <Mekkis> BAB +3
22:06:07 <Mekkis> 16 str
22:06:08 <Mekkis> easy
22:06:14 <Mort-> Your eidolon cheats
22:06:17 <Mort-> :p
22:06:32 <Mort-> I get 1d20+
22:06:38 <Mort-> 3:(
22:06:43 <Mekkis> hmm

22:08:06 <Mekkis> Intimidate, obviously
22:08:35 <Mort-> Oh wait

22:08:49 <Mort-> !throw
22:09:41 <Mort-> !throw 1d20+4
22:09:41 <diebot> Mort-, 1d20+4: [1d20=8] 12
22:09:49 <Mekkis> Acrobatics maybe?
22:10:17 <Mort-> !throw 1d20+12
22:10:18 <diebot> Mort-, 1d20+12: [1d20=12] 24
22:10:27 <Mort-> Concentration successful
22:10:42 <Mort-> !throw 1d20+4
22:10:43 <diebot> Mort-, 1d20+4: [1d20=8] 12
22:10:48 <Mort-> Oh man
22:11:02 <Mort-> Which is probably miss for both attacks
22:11:04 <Mekkis> mort, make a 20th level 3.5e character!
22:11:10 <Mort-> Why
22:11:24 <Mekkis> to get Ballig to run QQ!
22:11:35 <Mort-> Im afraid to fk up
22:11:43 <Mort-> I think i would run a magus
22:11:45 <Mort-> Lol
22:11:50 <Mekkis> 3.5e
22:12:08 <Mort-> But i don't know how to calculate it
22:12:49 <Mort-> If my rolls were that bad.
22:12:58 <Mort-> I wonder how the fk i hit things
22:13:04 <Mort-> 12 wtf :d
22:13:09 <Mekkis> actually
22:13:12 <Mekkis> touch AC is 12
22:13:13 <Mekkis> :)
22:13:43 <Mort-> Its a melee attack
22:13:52 <Mort-> I'm meleeing
22:14:55 <Mekkis> then no
22:14:57 <Mekkis> AC is 16
22:15:01 <Mekkis> 20 with Mage Armour
22:16:48 <Mort-> Yeah
22:17:04 <Mort-> Totally useless when trying to hit shit
22:17:10 * Mort- wincep
22:17:16 <Mort-> But 20 ac
22:17:23 <Mort-> Well if i have time to prepare
22:17:33 <Mort-> Its 21 ac here
22:18:08 <Mekkis> if I had time to prepare, you'd be grappled
22:18:58 <Mort-> I guess
22:19:05 <Mort-> What's your grapple roll
22:19:17 <Mort-> Don't think I'm that easy to graple
22:21:05 <Mort-> Does dodge apply to cmd?
22:21:15 <Mort-> Because i have 17 for cmd
22:21:20 <Mort-> Otherwise
22:23:38 <Mekkis> not sure
22:23:45 <Mekkis> +6
22:23:50 <Mekkis> but I get four tries!
22:24:33 <Mekkis> one after each hit!

22:39:53 <Mekkis> "Come over here and say that!"
22:43:01 * Mort- refuses to go over. Ac won't take it
22:43:03 <Mort-> :d
22:44:13 <Avatar> I am feeling pretty thirsty for a game
22:44:25 <Avatar> might run something tomorrow during the day if people are here
22:44:59 <Mort-> BARBARIAN ALWAYS FIND THAT RAGELANCEPOUNCE AM GOOD BEGINNING, MIDDLE, AND END TO DISAGREEMENT.
22:45:05 * Mort- giggles
22:45:06 <Mort-> Look
22:45:08 <Mort-> Lol
22:46:10 <Avatar> assuming I wake up early enough :|
22:46:25 <Avatar> I guess I could always schedule an afternoon game
22:46:29 <Mort-> I won't be around
22:46:31 <Mort-> Work
22:46:43 <Avatar> pretty sure we can gather up 3 people
22:46:43 <Mort-> I may be online
22:46:47 <Mort-> But can't game
22:46:51 <Mort-> Get hydra
22:46:52 <Avatar> ok mort
22:48:14 <Mort-> Most people build fighters who are stupid, powering attacking lunkheads without the sense God game a brick. -
22:48:24 <Mekkis> Mort-, except that that Doesn't Work
22:48:31 <Mort-> Cheers. But i love hydra anyway :p
22:48:38 <Mekkis> (I imagine you've read that thread now)
22:48:43 <Mort-> Actually he is probably smarter then i am
22:48:46 <Mort-> Yeah
22:48:47 <Avatar> what are you two talking about doing
22:48:48 <Mort-> Some of it
22:48:57 <Mort-> Uh
22:49:13 <Mort-> An afternoon of combat tactics and sharing the crits
22:49:25 <Mort-> With butterfly sting
22:49:36 <Mort-> I can ensure i hit using use strike
22:49:39 <Mekkis> Avatar, several months ago, someone claimed that they had made a barbarian who could take on and defeat any caster
22:49:40 <Mort-> True strike
22:50:10 <Mekkis> and kept it up with a bunch of bullshi
22:50:11 <Mekkis> t
22:50:23 <Avatar> that's a bit vague
22:50:34 <Avatar> is there a thread?
22:51:41 <Mort-> Paladin? Make love to your horse and quit bugging me with your moral qualms while I'm killing these goblin vermin before they breed. Hey, did you hear that next adventure is all constructs and killer mushrooms?
22:51:42 <Mort-> Lol
22:51:54 * Mort- giggles more
22:52:34 <Mekkis> http://paizo.com/forums/dmtz4r3h&page=1?AM-BARBARIAN-Build
22:52:38 <Mekkis> Avatar, enjoy
22:52:51 <Avatar> ta
22:53:15 <Mort-> But i know my brothers bezerker in baldurs gate
22:53:24 <Avatar> er, is this level 20
22:53:27 <Mort-> Was able to shrug off a lot of magical things
22:53:35 <Mekkis> Avatar, maybe :S
22:53:43 <Mort-> Again. Once i got my hand on the casomyr
22:53:46 <Mekkis> I don't know
22:53:48 <Mort-> So could i
22:54:20 <Mort-> Wtf. I just confessed i played a paladin before :(
22:54:33 <Mort-> But i was young and naive back then
22:55:39 <Avatar> did Kempt vanish
22:55:40 <Avatar> what's his story
22:56:07 <Avatar> I find it weird when there are newbies who come in, get a character ready, stay in the channel until the DAY BEFORE the game they're meant to play
22:56:12 <Avatar> and then vanish on said day
22:57:33 <Mekkis> Mort-, don't be hard on Paladins like that. That's Heresy!
22:57:50 <Mekkis> heresy is a crime
22:58:02 <Mekkis> punishment is burning
22:58:08 <Mort-> Well i was younger back then
22:58:09 <Mekkis> Paladin is Lawful!
22:58:23 <Mort-> And i wanted to be able to use that shiny holy sword!
22:58:37 <Mort-> Now i know it isn't worth it!
22:58:48 <Mort-> I keep losing my alignment
22:58:52 <Mort-> :d
22:59:20 <Mort-> I haven't met a pally that hasn't turned me off with goody two shoes :p
22:59:35 <Mekkis> you haven't met Asmel
22:59:55 <Mort-> The only thing pallies are good for is keeping mobs off me
23:00:05 <Mort-> And using my cure light wounds wand :d
23:00:10 <Mort-> To heal me :d
23:00:18 <Mort-> And oh yes. The spell magnet
23:00:42 <Mort-> They have such good saving throws they should make use of it!
23:00:44 <Mort-> Also the trouble magnet.
23:00:58 <Mekkis> That's very selfish of you.
23:01:00 <Mort-> Charge into a roomful of bads
23:01:08 <Mort-> To rescue a damsel in distress
23:01:23 <Mort-> That's why i can't play paladin
23:01:35 <Mort-> Lawful good is too restrictive
23:01:41 <Mekkis> no it isn't
23:01:48 <Mort-> Ill be in serious danger of alignment shift
23:02:03 <Mort-> I can't play a lawful character
23:02:11 <Mekkis> it's people like you who make it hard for anyone to play a paladin
23:02:18 <Avatar> I'm not even sure you can play a neutral character
23:02:39 <Mort-> I think I'm chaotic good
23:02:47 <Mekkis> lots of people do
23:02:49 <Mort-> Actually
23:02:54 <Mort-> For alignment base
23:03:10 <Mekkis> I'm not convinced my alignment is good yet
23:03:20 <Mort-> Don't worry. I won't show my disdain for paladins in a fight
23:03:42 <Mekkis> after speaking with people like Bossman, I'm thinking I do tend towards law
23:03:54 <Mort-> After all i get to go without my clw if the pally gets pissed ^^
23:04:01 <Mort-> I'm a long way from law
23:04:13 <Mekkis> Avatar, you notice how I didn't complain when you changed Jasim's alignment
23:04:23 <Mekkis> although he kept trying to prove you wrong
23:04:24 <Mort-> What did jasim do
23:04:27 <Mort-> Btw
23:04:29 <Mort-> Curious
23:04:51 <Mekkis> he did everything
23:05:05 * Mort- still thinks disdainful stuff about paladinr
23:05:10 <Mort-> Paladins
23:05:12 <Mort-> Heh
23:05:13 <Mekkis> I think he made most of the decisions in LSK that actually completed the missions
23:05:20 <Mekkis> he wasn't a paladin
23:05:29 <Mekkis> he was a human fighter/barbarian
23:05:39 <Mort-> You do what you must when the devil driver
23:05:43 <Mort-> Drives
23:05:50 <Mekkis> who was neutral good
23:05:53 <Mort-> What happened to his alignment
23:05:56 <Mort-> Ok
23:05:59 <Mekkis> and stood up for what he believed in
23:06:01 <Mort-> Neutral?
23:06:04 <Mort-> At the end?
23:06:18 <Mort-> Which is your right. But may not always be right :d
23:06:20 <Mekkis> he believed that Natsumi was not someone who should remain on this plane
23:06:25 <Mort-> Ah
23:06:30 <Mort-> Did he turn evil?
23:06:36 <Mekkis> neutral
23:06:42 <Mort-> Ah
23:06:52 * Mort- shrugs
23:07:09 <Mort-> I don't think i can play an evil character either
23:07:13 <Mort-> I'm not that evil
23:07:52 <Mekkis> playing evil really requires the cooperation of the DM
23:08:25 <Mekkis> the easiest way to play an evil character is to simply have a desire and be willing to do /anything/ to achieve it
23:09:52 <Mort-> Ah
23:10:06 <Mort-> But its possible getting you killed by your party
23:10:16 <Mort-> Like taking all the lewt^^
23:10:16 <Mekkis> depending on how you play it
23:10:36 <Mekkis> if you take all the loot, then the party won't want you around
23:10:40 <Mort-> Btw can i give more anti pally quips? :p
23:10:42 <Mort-> Yeah
23:10:46 <Mekkis> so you won't be able to get more loot
23:10:52 <Mort-> I guess
23:11:03 <Mekkis> so it's in your interest for you to have the party around
23:11:04 <Mort-> K its like spirit eating
23:11:13 <Mekkis> more like: what happened in a campaign I was in
23:11:18 <Mort-> Even most evil characters
23:11:31 <Mekkis> some people are planning to poison many townsfolk
23:11:34 <Mort-> Don't go on endless spirit buffet in motb
23:11:38 <Mort-> Too hard to control
23:11:42 <Mekkis> we know that they are there, and where they are
23:12:12 <Mort-> Do you have any vested interest in the towns folk?
23:12:13 <Mekkis> of course, we could find them an kill them before they start poisoning everyone
23:12:25 <Mort-> You could probably make money selling cures ^^
23:12:51 <Mort-> Or intimidate them into giving you cash to ensure you keep your mouths shut
23:12:57 <Mekkis> but it'd get us more money to let them kill people, cause some panic, and then, when they come begging to us to save them, charge a lot of money
23:13:07 <Mort-> Ah i see
23:13:17 <Mekkis> oh, and stockpile potions of lesser restoration and antitoxin
23:13:18 <Mort-> So you took the selling cures route :p
23:13:24 <Mekkis> no
23:13:29 <Mort-> That i mentioned earlier?
23:13:31 <Mekkis> we took the selling cures route
23:13:43 <Mort-> Nice :d
23:13:47 <Mekkis> and the "kill them, but only after they offer us a massive reward"
23:14:12 * Mort- gives her best evil villian laugh
23:14:14 <Mort-> Excellent
23:14:29 <Mort-> Your on your way to becoming a sith lord
23:14:35 <Mort-> I love your style :d
23:14:39 * Mort- grins
23:14:52 <Mort-> Damn I'm getting closer to the dark side
23:15:13 <Mekkis> actually, in that campaign my LE assassin was more friends with the LG fighter than the CN rogue and CN ranger
23:15:23 <Mort-> Why
23:15:31 <Mort-> How did the lawful good fighter
23:15:33 <Mekkis> because we could trust each other
23:15:37 <Mort-> Even allow you to sell cures
23:16:02 <Mort-> Yes chaotic characters are hard to work with
23:16:07 <Mekkis> because I explained to him the law of supply and demand
23:16:13 <Mort-> So?
23:16:15 <Mekkis> and asked him if he really wanted to defy it
23:16:20 <Mort-> Why didn't he demand that you
23:16:26 <Mort-> Kill the guys spreading poison
23:16:40 <Mort-> It is against his alignment not to do so
23:16:40 <Mekkis> we did
23:16:42 <Mekkis> in the end
23:16:44 <Mort-> Before they even start
23:16:52 <Mort-> Yes but why did he even allow you
23:17:02 <Mort-> To let the guys poison the towns folk
23:17:10 <Mort-> My wizard would protest
23:17:18 <Mort-> And she is neutral good
23:17:41 <Mort-> I really didnt approve of doing the kill on sight stuff in the sins
23:17:43 <Mort-> Shop
23:17:58 <Mort-> Kendra would not care
23:18:08 <Mort-> Not sure how khaz would feel about i
23:18:09 <Mort-> It
23:18:14 <Avatar> in the what?
23:18:22 <Mort-> Shop
23:18:26 <Avatar> what is the sins shop
23:18:32 <Mort-> The shop
23:18:35 <Mort-> Bad spelling
23:18:40 <Avatar> what shop
23:18:42 <Mort-> They just went kill on sight
23:18:51 <Avatar> oh, BTD 1?
23:18:53 <Mort-> The shop in before the dawn
23:18:58 <Mort-> Yeah
23:19:10 <Avatar> yeah that is the biggest recurring gripe I have heard about PFS
23:19:11 <Mort-> I really didn't care for it in wizard form
23:19:15 <Avatar> people who don't cooperate
23:19:26 <Mort-> I do cooperate
23:19:32 <Avatar> once you've done something, it's done
23:19:41 <Mort-> If your in a fight you want to be the last one standing
23:19:50 <Mort-> But you shouldn't start unnecessary ones
23:19:57 <Mort-> Not with people in a shop!
23:20:18 <Mort-> Bloodthisty bastards ^^
23:20:40 <Mort-> My take on the situation is this. People stare at each other all the time
23:21:01 <Mort-> You wouldn't punch someone in the face in rl if he stared at you
23:21:10 <Mort-> So why are you doing it in game :p
23:21:28 <Mort-> Especially if you are playing good characters
23:21:46 <Mort-> If you are playing chaotic evil characters
23:21:52 <Mort-> Wouldn't give a fk
23:22:19 <Mort-> I say. Too much testrone.
23:22:28 <Mekkis> Senzar?
23:22:48 <Mort-> Ya :p
23:22:55 <Mort-> Now i didn't use sense motive
23:23:20 <Mekkis> There are three types of people
23:23:25 <Mekkis> The Good people
23:23:30 <Mekkis> The Neutral people
23:23:37 <Mort-> So i don't see the hidden implications of the situation
23:23:41 <Mekkis> and the people who don't like using labels
23:24:07 <Mort-> Ah
23:24:20 <Mort-> I dunno
23:24:41 <Mort-> I believe in the classic rules of engagements like they have in armies
23:25:07 <Mort-> You do not shoot on sight unless you can see a life will be threatened
23:25:34 <Mort-> Maybe they interpreted that our lives would be threatened
23:25:38 <Mort-> Khaz is actually fairly effective with a bow
23:25:44 <Mort-> damage wise
23:25:56 <Mort-> Hitting might be an issue though
23:26:12 <Mort-> 1d20+3 ><
23:27:39 <Mort-> I haven't been able to differentiate khaz and mort yet
23:27:55 <Mort-> Should start tryin to split them
23:29:40 <Mekkis> Do you have any idea how many hours have gone into this crap?
23:29:40 <Mekkis> Thousands upon thousands. Capturing humans, testing them, developing viruses, giving the humans the viruses, watching them die, capturing more humans …
23:29:40 <Mekkis> So I mean, I’ve been working as long as I can remember on perfecting a virus for the humans. Ever since I got to this stupid place.
23:29:40 <Mekkis> And here I am slaving away, trying to develop the perfect contagious killing machine …
23:31:26 <Mort-> That's sheer evil
23:31:33 <Mort-> He should be killed
23:31:47 <Mort-> And burn his body to ashes so there is no rez
23:33:25 * Mort- snarls
23:33:34 * Mort- growls as well
23:36:04 <Avatar> oh crap, I still have a few hours to download 93 gig
23:38:47 <Mort-> Lol
23:39:47 <Mort-> But personally i think fighters are seriously short changed when dealing with weird stuff
23:40:03 <Mort-> Like what do you do when something goes invis on you?
23:40:16 <Mort-> Or incorpreal
23:40:54 <Mekkis> incorporeal isn't hard
23:40:59 <Mekkis> it's just 50% damage
23:41:00 <Mort-> Yell holy fking shit and hope someone in party brought along holy water or glitterdust
23:41:07 <Mekkis> yeah
23:41:14 <Mekkis> that's what the wizard is there for
23:41:22 <Mort-> Well that's my wizard will have
23:41:34 <Mort-> I think my magus may pick it up too
23:41:44 <Mekkis> faerie fire
23:41:50 <Mekkis> see invisibilty
23:42:05 <Mort-> What do you do if you can see
23:42:12 <Mort-> But your party members cannot
23:42:25 <Mort-> Say instead of glitterdust
23:42:25 <Mekkis> cast faerie fire!
23:42:30 <Mort-> You used see invisible
23:42:32 <Mekkis> or glitterdust
23:42:34 <Mort-> Wizard
23:42:37 <Mort-> Can't
23:42:45 <Mekkis> cast Dancing Lights
23:42:50 <Mekkis> or flaming sphere
23:42:52 <Mort-> But you can tell them which square right
23:42:59 <Mekkis> and yell "Hit where the sphere is"!
23:43:27 <Avatar> Mekkis: our party in that special didn't have a wizard
23:43:35 <Mekkis> yeas
23:43:40 <Mekkis> it was difficult, wasn't it
23:43:48 <Avatar> pretty punishing
23:43:51 <Avatar> lucky you had a GUNSLINGER instead !
23:43:54 <Avatar> :D
23:44:20 <Mort-> What did you do lol
23:44:28 <Avatar> well I shot things
23:44:30 <Avatar> a lot
23:44:40 <Mekkis> yeah
23:44:43 <Mort-> It doesn't help if invisible
23:44:56 <Mekkis> Grolschmir had faerie fire
23:45:09 <Mort-> In that case of btd
23:45:50 <Avatar> how do ranged weaps work vs invisible
23:45:57 <Mekkis> choose a square
23:45:59 <Mekkis> roll to hit
23:46:03 <Mekkis> roll miss chance
23:46:12 <Avatar> surely you wouldn't aim for a square
23:46:12 <Mort-> That s got glittery and very dead
23:46:12 <Avatar> I mean you would, but you'd attack in a line
23:46:12 <Avatar> anything in that line, closest to you, would be hit first
23:46:12 <Avatar> or is that too logical
23:46:12 <Mort-> That person in line can dodge
23:46:22 <Mekkis> incorrect
23:46:26 <Avatar> that's choosing a square
23:46:26 <Mekkis> you aim for a square
23:46:32 <Avatar> but your shot goes in a line
23:46:41 <Mekkis> it goes in an arc
23:46:53 <Avatar> miss chance I can understand
23:46:53 <Mort-> K
23:46:56 <Avatar> shots don't go in an arc
23:47:00 <Avatar> unless you're talking range increments
23:47:01 <Mekkis> yes they do
23:47:06 <Mort-> Time to get dancing lights for mort
23:47:09 <Mort-> Its an hida
23:47:11 <Avatar> within the first 40-120ft, you're still fine
23:47:11 <Mort-> Idea
23:47:16 <Avatar> range increments covers arcs
23:47:18 <Avatar> you're shooting in a line
23:47:28 <Mekkis> you're always shooting in an arc
23:47:29 <Mort-> I'm out of glitterdust
23:48:00 <Mekkis> gravity doesn't turn off if you
23:48:08 <Mort-> How do you use powder to fight an invisible creature
23:48:09 <Mekkis> 're not shooting something far away
23:48:14 <Mekkis> throw it at them
23:48:28 <Avatar> for the first range increment, it's a line
23:48:31 <Mekkis> anyway. Sleep
23:48:33 <Mekkis> not it isn
23:48:34 <Mekkis> 't
23:48:35 <Mort-> Say if you have no caster who loaded anything to deal with invisibility
23:48:39 <Mort-> Ok
23:48:41 <Avatar> have you ever done real archery before
23:48:44 <Mekkis> gravity doesn't care how far you're shooting
23:48:51 <Mekkis> have you ever thrown a shovel before?
23:48:52 <Avatar> when you aim at a target, you're not shooting a little higher
23:49:00 <Mekkis> or thrown darts?
23:49:02 <Avatar> it's not throwing a shovel, it's shooting a bow or a bullet
23:49:03 <Mort-> My friend went for it
23:49:14 <Mekkis> you are shooting a little higher
23:49:18 <Avatar> throwing a shovel would be a 10ft range increment anyway
23:49:20 <Mort-> Don't know how it turned out though
23:49:27 <Avatar> you would still be throwing in a line
23:49:41 <Mekkis> try throwing a shovel 10' without accounting for the arc
23:49:50 <Avatar> OK I will
23:49:53 <Avatar> I'll throw it at you ok
23:49:57 <Avatar> let's see if I hit you
23:50:07 <Mekkis> try throwing it at a wall
23:50:14 <Avatar> put your money where your mouth is
23:50:17 <Hydrazine> don't forget your -4 for improvised weapons.
23:50:34 <Avatar> maybe I should throw something I'm proficient in
23:50:42 <Mekkis> throw a keyboard 10'
23:50:53 <Mort-> Haha
23:50:54 <Avatar> it's not really fair to compare throwing a shovel to shooting a bow or a gun
23:51:10 <Mort-> -4 for improvised weapons
23:51:10 <Mekkis> what about a dart?
23:51:11 <Mort-> I like
23:51:20 <Avatar> yeah a dart is ok
23:51:29 * Mort- bets avatar will miss
23:51:33 <Hydrazine> even darts have nothing close to the raw speed of a bullet.
23:51:46 <Avatar> within 1 range increment, I doubt it
23:51:46 <Mort-> Because avatar doesn't have good dex :p
23:52:01 <Mekkis> what's the range increment of a dart?
23:52:04 <Avatar> 20ft
23:52:07 <Mort-> I think hydrazine would hit though
23:52:08 <Avatar> how many m is that
23:52:22 <Avatar> about 6.5m
23:52:30 <Mekkis> wow
23:52:46 <Hydrazine> is this a in-game dart or a real dart?
23:52:49 <Mekkis> at 6m, you will be taking into account the arc
23:52:51 <Avatar> this is a real dart
23:52:54 <Avatar> that I will throw in a line at mekkis
23:52:58 <Avatar> if he's right, I'll miss
23:53:01 <Hydrazine> because i believe a regulation dart board line is 10ft.
23:53:11 <Hydrazine> and even then you consider arc.
23:53:14 * Mort- giggles
23:53:21 <Mekkis> (that being said, my throwing style uses the arc more than it probably needs to)
23:53:27 <Mekkis> (I hold it by the tip)
23:53:33 <Avatar> a dart board would be less than a small creature
23:53:37 <Mekkis> throwing a dagger is even harder
23:53:39 <Avatar> especially if you're talking aiming for a bullseye
23:53:50 <Mort-> Don't you hold darts in the middle?
23:53:51 <Mekkis> you're always aiming for the bullseye :S
23:53:55 <Hydrazine> i used to have a dartboard. when i tried to throw at 20ft, i hit my roof.
23:54:02 <Mort-> I've never throw a dart before
23:54:09 <Avatar> aiming for the bullseye on a medium creature is like aiming for a critical hit
23:54:20 <Hydrazine> thats silly, avatar.
23:54:30 <Mekkis> the bullseye is in the middle
23:54:38 <Avatar> you're aiming for a medium creature
23:54:46 * Mort- has no idea how to throw darts
23:54:55 <Hydrazine> ...think of it this way. EVERY single time you throw, you're AIMING for a bullseye. when you hit the target, you hit the target. when you hit the bullseye, you got really lucky and you win.
23:54:56 <Mekkis> there are two ways: the middle and the tip
23:55:04 <Avatar> you're trying to convince me you can't throw a dart in a line and expect to hit a target
23:55:17 <Mort-> Id use the middle but that's me
23:55:21 <Mekkis> daggers are even harder
23:55:27 <Hydrazine> ...go stand infront of a dartboard while people are playing?
23:55:28 <Avatar> it doesn't matter whether it's the middle or the tip
23:55:32 <Avatar> if we're talking bows or guns
23:55:35 <Mort-> I've never really thrown wa dart in rl
23:55:36 <Mekkis> because you need to take into account rotation
23:55:53 <Avatar> you shoot straight
23:55:53 <Mort-> I've thrown pillows though!
23:55:58 <Mort-> They arc
23:56:00 <Mekkis> it doesn't help if you've hit an enemy with the handle
23:56:01 <Avatar> ESPECIALLY if we're trying to hit an invisible creature
23:56:29 <Mekkis> I thought you'd ready an action to shoot him :S
23:56:38 <Hydrazine> what rotation? bows and guns keep the pointy end first the whole time.
23:56:55 <Hydrazine> or well. you get the point.
23:57:00 <Avatar> ho ho ho
23:57:18 <Mekkis> RAW, you choose the square
23:57:32 * Mort- throws a pillow at hydrazine
23:57:47 <Mort-> !throw 1d20+2
23:59:19 <diebot> Mort-, 1d20+2: [1d20=5] 7
23:59:19 <Avatar> right, so it's just for the sake of the game that you shoot in an arc, right
23:59:19 <Avatar> it's not actually logical
23:59:19 <Mort-> Damn. Missed :(
