02:26:02 <Novel> novel
02:26:26 <Ballig> did you confirm the account
02:26:31 <Novel> yep
02:26:31 <Ballig> I'm not seeing it on the site
02:26:44 <Novel> sorry, Novel
02:27:42 <Ballig> are you sure it was www.pfrpg.com.au
02:27:44 <Ballig> and not paizo.com?
02:27:45 <Novel> As in capital N
02:27:51 <Novel> ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
02:27:53 <Novel> :L
02:27:59 <Ballig> need you to register on pfrpg.com.au :p
02:28:13 <Novel> IT WAS on paizo :( :P *doh* :)
02:28:19 <Ballig> ha
02:29:24 <Ballig> all right, I can see you on the site now
02:30:24 <Novel> Absolutely sppiffing my fine man! Cheers wot! *raises glasses, arches monocle
02:31:39 <Ballig> I've sent you an invite to the game
02:31:49 <Ballig> keep in mind the times are in GMT+10 until you change your timezone on the website
02:34:06 <Novel> ty
02:37:03 <Novel> Accepted :D
02:37:21 <Ballig> cool
02:37:42 <Ballig> so basically pathfinder society is pathfinder but with some uniform rules
02:37:57 <Ballig> it lets you play your character in games run by many different GMs
02:38:13 <Ballig> you can check it out on the paizo website and it'll describe it better
02:38:49 <Novel> i know a bit about it
02:39:11 <Ballig> if you go to the paizo website and grab the Pathfinder Society Guide to Organised Play, it will give you all the rules for it
02:39:29 <Ballig> you can either make a character for it (using the rules from that guide), or you can use a pregenerated character for your first game and make a character later
02:40:39 <Avatar> novel, warning: pathfinder is awesome
02:41:18 <Novel> I heard ;)
02:41:39 <Ballig> ha
02:41:47 <Ballig> Novel: did you google to find us?
02:42:27 <Novel> yep, and i've benen coming back for a while now on my hunt ;
02:42:37 <Novel> for my first game ;)
02:42:39 <Ballig> do you remember what you googled for
02:44:09 <Novel> pathfinder society irc austnet :L :P
02:44:15 <Novel> Probably pathfinder irc
02:44:25 <Novel> maybe with a scoiety thrown in ;)
02:44:50 <Ballig> ha okay
02:45:02 <Ballig> have you played any pathfinder before?
02:45:13 <Novel> Nope *derp*
02:45:45 <Ballig> what have you played?
02:46:28 <Novel> I've fairly recently began in two hero system play by post games, though as you can imagine the pace uis painfully slow :/
02:46:44 <Novel> I'm game for anything though
02:47:38 <Avatar> forget play by post
02:47:51 <Ballig> play by post would make me want to smack my head against a wall
02:48:52 <Novel> indeed
02:49:01 <Ballig> do you have the core rulebook?
02:49:06 <Novel> I really want some Warhammer 40k, and soon :D
02:49:20 <Novel> If i can fid it.... *hopeful face*
02:53:55 <Novel> know anywhere i can find games happening today?
02:54:28 <Ballig> we really only know about games happening here
02:54:42 <Novel> how can i gat to a specific channel on this? -.-
02:54:50 <Novel> http://www.esper.net/publicirc.php
02:55:18 <Ballig> looks like that only works for the EsperNet IRC network
02:55:29 <Novel> i know
02:55:38 <Novel> i'm trying to get on one of their channels
02:55:55 <Novel> cause it's being annoying about it *rolls eyes
02:56:04 <Novel> this #Tarnartion
02:56:27 <Novel> i try typing it in and it says i cant use that command on that window
02:56:39 <Ballig> well when you get to the front page it says "Channels:"
02:56:41 <Ballig> type it into that box
02:56:47 <Ballig> before you hit connect
02:58:03 <Novel> found a different solution, found the right command :l
02:58:03 <Novel> ty
02:58:21 <Novel> no ione there -.-
02:58:44 <Ballig> ha
02:58:45 <Ballig> what jerks
02:58:56 <Ballig> is it completely empty or are they just not responding?
02:59:29 <Novel> Nah, they're jkust not online
02:59:37 <Novel> I dont think its deliberate
03:00:19 <Ballig> oh, I bet it is
03:01:29 <Avatar> yeah sounds like it is
03:01:36 <Avatar> can't believe people like that
03:02:09 <Novel> nah
03:02:14 <Novel> it was on paizo
03:02:21 <Novel> he had a good few responses
03:02:25 <Novel> and some plqnning
03:02:34 <Novel> i doubt they'd go to that much effort
03:03:22 <Ballig> it was an elaborate ruse
03:03:27 <Novel> nah
03:03:46 <Novel> i'l chedck back later and see
03:15:19 <Ballig> hey Avatar, this is like building a house in UO am I right? http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-p365vkAg4_8/TnN92uG4daI/AAAAAAAAESo/s8yKF7viGIw/s1600/i-gh5jnq4-X3-600x800.jpg
03:21:29 <Novel> Oooh, you like ultima? Google the vision of Embers of Caerus ;)
03:21:44 matt ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
03:22:19 <Ballig> what's that
03:22:37 <matt> Hi
03:24:45 <Novel> Le google ;)
03:25:15 <Ballig> I googled it, I still don't know what it is
03:25:20 <Ballig> (I googled it before asking)
03:27:15 <Novel> read the vision- i''l link you. It will be more then worth it :D
03:27:46 <Novel> http://www.embersofcaerus.com/content.php/137-The-Vision\
03:28:31 <Novel> a sandbox first-person open world mmorpg with... you know wat, I'm mnot going to ruin the surprise. :P It's currently in develpoment! :D
03:28:54 <Ballig> yeah that's where I went after googling
03:28:57 <Ballig> but I didn't bother reading it all
03:29:16 <Ballig> I read the first 5 words
03:29:26 <Novel> :L
03:29:53 <Ballig> hey with that much text, if the first 5 words can't draw me in it has no chance
03:29:54 <Novel> Keep on reading the next 5... and the next 5... and the nex- OM Y SDKDDSN I WANT MOESES!
03:30:08 <Ballig> are you welsh
03:30:14 <Novel> Read two paragraphs in. Tjhere definitely is
03:31:23 <Novel> a shorter version to get you started here http://www.forsakenstudios.com/prods.php
03:31:43 <Ballig> is it playable
03:32:03 <Novel> i'll tell you about that later. ;)
03:32:14 <Novel> It has a t.
03:33:37 <matt> hey guys, for IRC pfs it doesnt seem like there are any healer types, do you think its worth making a cleric?
03:34:09 <Ballig> Brunius, Avatar and I each have clerics
03:34:16 <Ballig> but they're higher level now
03:34:24 <Ballig> because no one else seems to want to play one so we're always in demand :p

03:35:23 <matt> I'm thinking about a kind of battle cleric. anyway, I'll see if I can get it toggether
03:35:50 S711 has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
03:36:48 <Ballig> my advice on a battle cleric is seriously consider the stats
03:36:54 <Ballig> try and determine exactly how you plan on doing the battleing
03:37:05 Novel has quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
03:37:14 <Ballig> the last thing you want is to not have high enough stats to do what you want

03:39:38 <matt> I was thinking an 1/2 orc. str 16, dec 11 con 14, int 12, wis 14 cha 12
03:41:58 <matt> I can reduce my decx and in to 10.....
03:42:05 <matt> dex and int
03:44:11 <Ballig> just be aware that with a lower wisdom you won't be able to cast as much as someone with a higher wisdom
03:44:15 <Ballig> and that your wisdom will affect the DC of your spells
03:44:32 <Ballig> (which may not be an issue if you plan to primarily buff yourself etc)
03:44:42 <matt> true, but I was thinking of mostly buffing spells....
03:48:59 <matt> maybe summoning as well, they problem is when I get higer level I will need to cash more...
03:49:14 <Ballig> the major problem with summoning is that it takes a full round to cast
03:49:25 <Ballig> so you start casting this round, and finish casting next round
04:11:11 <matt> that's true
05:26:09 <Novel> oh my. Just gold :D http://www.heresy-online.net/forums/showthread.php?t=26782&page=2

09:02:12 <Avatar> so like dropbox, except it seems superfast with a better UI
09:02:47 <Steven> yo
09:03:00 <Mort-> I ish not cleric
09:03:24 <Mort-> I don't like to be dependent on my god for spells
09:03:35 <Steven> you are now!
09:03:44 <Mort-> I'm not
09:04:49 * Mort- rubs sleepy out of her eyes
09:05:23 <Steven> and mort you do realize you can be a cleric without a god right
09:08:12 <Mort-> Not in pfs
09:08:30 <Mort-> I think. Something about worshiping concepts
09:08:36 <Avatar> Mort-: the only time that will ever really be a risk is if you play with mekkis
09:08:43 <Steven> yes even in pfs
09:09:28 <Mort-> Nah. Not feeling cleric much. I've played enough healers in whatever mno i lay my hands on
09:09:47 <Ballig> Steven: not sure about that
09:09:58 <Steven> you can worship the concept of 'good'
09:10:07 <Ballig> depends on whether you take this from the PFS guide:
09:10:07 <Ballig> Characters who do not receive powers from
09:10:08 <Ballig> a divine source may choose to be atheists or to have no
09:10:08 <Ballig> deity at all.
09:10:16 <Ballig> to mean that characters who DO receive powers from a divine souce must worship a deity
09:10:41 <Mort-> I thought there was a caveat some place
09:11:24 <Mort-> Look. Everyone knows cadderly has to do lots of praying before he gets anything done
09:11:38 <Ballig> and wizards have to do a lot of book reading to get anything done
09:11:52 <Mort-> Its ok. My books don't run away
09:11:59 <Steven> alright im getting out my book
09:12:04 <Ballig> deities don't run away either
09:12:14 <Mort-> All that kneeling gets tedious
09:12:17 <Mort-> :p
09:12:41 <Ballig> who says you have to kneel to pray?
09:12:45 <Ballig> you can pray however you like
09:12:59 <Ballig> someone who worships a martial god, for example, might pray by sparring
09:13:00 <Steven> While the vast majority of clerics revere a specific deity, a small number dedicate themselves to a divine concept worthy of devotion-- such as battle, death, justice, or knowledge-- free of a deific abstraction.
09:13:05 <Steven> from the book
09:13:10 <Ballig> Steven: is that the core rulebook or the PFS guide?
09:13:16 <Steven> core rulebook
09:13:22 <Ballig> everyone knows it's possible in core pathfinder man
09:13:24 <Ballig> we're not disputing that
09:13:28 <Ballig> we're talking about whether it's legal in PFS
09:13:52 <Steven> alright, ill open that now
09:14:17 <Ballig> check "Religion" on page 7
09:14:20 <Ballig> last sentence
09:15:38 <Mort-> Nah. No gods for me :d
09:16:20 <Ballig> that's pretty narrowminded Mort
09:16:31 <Ballig> should try to broaden your experiences
09:16:36 <Ballig> play something you wouldn't normally play
09:17:42 <Mort-> No i have too many characters
09:17:49 <Mort-> Going to level up some :d
09:18:06 <Ballig> that's fine, but saying "I won't play a cleric because gods are dumb" is a bit silly
09:19:38 <Mort-> It isn't its just me!
09:19:58 <Mort-> I'm not letting a force outside me rule my adventuring life :p
09:20:06 <Mort-> Besides i don't feel cleric
09:20:16 <Steven> i see nothing that would deny a person from worshiping an idea
09:20:26 <Ballig> Mort-: that's why you should do it, because you wuoldn't normally
09:20:29 <Ballig> so you should broaden your experience
09:20:36 <Ballig> Steven: did you read the last sentence of Religion?
09:20:42 <Steven> yeah
09:20:43 <Ballig> because it can clearly be interpreted to mean that clerics need a deity
09:20:55 <Ballig> it says anyone who doesn't receive divine powers can choose not to worship a deity
09:21:03 <Ballig> implying that characters who do receive divine powers must worship a deity
09:22:52 <Steven> its also implied that worshiping say the idea of good
09:23:03 <Steven> is given powers from all the good deities
09:23:19 <Ballig> where?
09:23:25 <Ballig> in the PFS guide?
09:23:31 <Ballig> because if it's not in the PFS guide, your point is moot
09:23:45 <Steven> its in the core i believe
09:23:49 <Ballig> then your point is moot
09:23:51 <Ballig> we're talking about PFS
09:24:32 <Steven> yeah, but pfs is not run with the idea of if its not specifically in the guide it doesnt work
09:24:43 <Ballig> this is specifically in the guide though
09:24:47 <Ballig> the implication is clearly there
09:25:06 <Ballig> if it said "Characters who do not receive powers from a divine source may be half-orcs"
09:25:07 matt has quit (Quit: )
09:25:14 <Ballig> the implication would clearly be that if you were a cleric you couldn't be a half-orc
09:25:22 <Ballig> this is the same, except it's about being an atheist
09:27:27 <Steven> i just dont see this line of text in the field guide
09:27:39 <Ballig> I thought you said you read it
09:28:07 <Steven> ive read the entirety of the page you said it was on like 3 times
09:28:25 <Ballig> what does the last sentence of the "Religion" paragraph on page 7 say in your copy?
09:28:52 <Steven> Are you sure you're looking that Society Feild guide
09:29:14 <Ballig> I'm looking at the guide to pathfinder society organised play
09:29:16 <Ballig> not the field guide
09:30:16 * Steven facepalms
09:33:26 <Steven> I would not say that disqualifies a person from selecting an idea to worship.
09:34:16 <Ballig> many people would, though
09:34:18 <Steven> that is refering specifically to people who are not divine casters.
09:34:20 <Ballig> because the implication is clearly there
09:34:23 <Ballig> even if it isn't specifically stated
09:34:28 <Ballig> er, yeah
09:34:31 <Ballig> we're talking about clerics
09:35:11 <Steven> yes i know, im saying that the last sentance is directed specifically at people who are not divine casters.
09:35:37 <Ballig> and the implication is that it's not possible for other characters
09:35:40 <Ballig> i.e. divine casters
09:36:00 <Ballig> you wouldn't bother directing it only at non-divine casters if it was also possible for divine casters
09:36:05 <Ballig> you'd simply say anyone can be an atheist
09:36:12 <Steven> the implication is irrelevant, it does not say a divine caster must select a diety.
09:36:19 <Ballig> the implication is not irrelevant
09:36:26 <Ballig> it's clear enough that many people will interpret it that way
09:36:41 <Ballig> like I said, you wouldn't bother directing it only at non-divine casters if it was also possible for divine casters to do it
09:36:43 <Steven> im sure theres a forum post on it with developer comment.
09:36:48 <Ballig> then find it
09:36:54 <Ballig> right now the guide is on my side
09:38:04 <Steven> I think your making a bridge of convience. The core says its allowed. The gude doesnt say its restricted. Its gray area.
09:38:25 <Steven> If i ever make a character w/o a deity ill invest time into finding the post.
09:38:27 <Ballig> it's not very grey though is it? because like I said, you wouldn't say that non-divine casters can do it if everyone could do it
09:38:30 <Ballig> you'd say that everyone could do it
09:39:18 <Steven> a cleric must select soemthign to worship, the core states it must be either a deity or an idea.
09:39:31 <Ballig> we're talking about PFS man
09:39:32 <Ballig> not core
09:39:36 <Steven> non devine casters can select to be a complete atheists
09:40:03 <Steven> in pfs, the core is part of the core assumption, its asssumed to be applicable in every situation.
09:40:18 <Steven> unless specifically noted that its not allowed
09:41:36 <Steven> my point is the guide doesnt say. Clerics must select a diety.
09:41:39 <Ballig> joshua frost says you can't
09:41:45 <Ballig> apparnetly in FAQ 2.0
09:42:05 <Steven> link?
09:42:10 <Ballig> http://paizo.com/forums/dmtz1sdt?Query-for-Cleric-DeityNo-Deity-selection-for#0
09:42:12 <Ballig> that guy quotes it
09:42:14 <Ballig> but doesn't link it
09:42:46 <Steven> where is the faq2?
09:42:55 <Ballig> it's an older faq
09:43:12 <Ballig> it actually looks like he's quoting a blog post
09:43:33 <Ballig> they probably assumed the question was removed with the sentence in the religion section
09:44:04 <Steven> and josh frost is a 2star dm
09:44:11 <Steven> not part of the development forum
09:44:12 <Ballig> he's the PFS guy
09:44:19 <Ballig> or something
09:44:44 <Ballig> or was
09:45:06 <Steven> i know he worked in advertising for a while
09:45:16 <Ballig> Joshua J. Frost is Paizo Publishing's events manager as well as a freelance writer, game designer, and photographer. After a series of soul-sucking corporate jobs, Frost joined Paizo Publishing in 2005 as the advertising sales director for Dragon and Dungeon (magazine) magazines. He is currently managing Pathfinder Society Organized Play,
09:45:44 <Ballig> he's The Word on anything PFS
09:45:45 <Steven> ill just invest some time, i got like fifteen minutes, ill go find a developer post about deities
09:45:54 <Ballig> Joshua Frost is the only one that matters
09:45:56 <Ballig> he's the top guy on PFS
09:48:50 DarkDaemon has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
09:50:02 DarkDaemon ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
09:53:14 <Steven> Found it. Yeah Frost says you have to pick one.
09:53:25 <Steven> sorry mort no aethist cleric for you.
09:53:33 <Ballig> sux2bmort :(
09:54:02 <Steven> his reasons were you lose favored weapon...
09:54:09 <Steven> pretty lame.
09:54:57 <Steven> I think mark moreland came up with a much better reason
09:55:07 <Steven> And furthermore, can they use this to worship a deity or concept that is not expressly permitted within PFS (or even statted yet) like an Empyreal Lord or Shimye-Magala. It's just flavor at that point anyway.
09:55:26 <Mekkis> Frost doesn't work at Paizo any more
09:55:40 <Mekkis> he left early 2011
09:55:46 <Mekkis> or was it late 2010
09:56:20 <Ballig> yeah, I thought he'd left
09:56:25 <Steven> so did i
09:56:37 <Steven> which is why i always discounted his posts when he tried sounding official
09:56:43 <Steven> but i guess he in charge of pfs op
09:56:52 <Ballig> he was in charge of PFS when he was there
09:56:52 <Mekkis> when did that happen?
09:57:06 <Ballig> who's managing it now, Mekkis?
09:57:35 <Steven> who knows
09:57:41 <Mekkis> Mike Brock
09:58:25 <Steven> prolly mike brock yeah
09:59:13 <Steven> yes
09:59:26 <Steven> Michael Brock is the pfs capaign coordinator
10:00:15 <Steven> hmmmmm
10:00:16 <Steven> its 5pm
10:00:22 <Mort-> See
10:00:26 <Steven> and my father hasnt called to ask me to pick up my step brother

10:03:36 Fish ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
10:04:55 <Steven> 505pm.... no call
10:05:09 <Steven> i might be in the clear for extra laziness
10:05:16 <Mort-> Just do it you nub
10:05:35 <Mort-> Whatever. No clerics
10:05:38 <Mort-> :d
10:06:08 <Steven> but seirously, its not like just because you worship Gorum the god of battle you have to be some battle whore who always wants to fight
10:06:43 <Mort-> That's one thing i dislike about gods yes
10:07:00 <Steven> you might want to get over that
10:07:15 <Mort-> I suppose ausk and his god get along fine
10:07:17 <Steven> cause your shutting yourself off to 1/3 of the playable classes
10:07:26 <Mort-> Both of them are scoundrels.
10:07:29 <Mort-> ^^
10:07:46 <Steven> PFFFFFFt besmara doesnt care
10:08:03 <Brunius> jerks
10:08:09 <Mort-> Its true
10:08:25 <Mort-> He is a freaking pirate praying to the pirate queen
10:08:33 <Steven> yeah
10:08:46 <Steven> but ausk revears besmara's nature
10:08:48 <Mort-> So i bet they get along great
10:09:11 <Mort-> You have a shrine on your ship?
10:09:20 <Mort-> At least a statue ffs
10:09:21 <Steven> no
10:09:25 <Mort-> What?
10:09:41 <Steven> if you knew anything about besmara
10:09:55 <Mort-> Uh ok. But isn't it common for sailors to bring talismans of their gods of ships
10:10:15 <Mort-> Hm not exactly. Just principles of worship in question
10:10:19 <Steven> besmara doesnt care for shrines and worship
10:10:22 <Mort-> Not the exact diety
10:10:48 <Mort-> Ah i see
10:10:50 <Mort-> Just phat lewt?

11:22:52 <matt> Hi all
11:23:42 <Thelen> hi
11:23:42 <Thelen> nite
11:24:22 <matt> Nite
11:27:37 <Steven> alright im back
11:27:49 <Steven> had to wait like 50 minutes for his scoob ass
11:27:59 <Steven> aparantly he is having trouble in government class
11:28:34 <Ballig> what's "government class"
11:30:18 <Steven> where highschoolers learn how the government 'works'
11:34:30 Fish has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
11:35:21 <Steven> on the ride back we had an interesting conversation about how he believes his friends share their deepest darkest secrets with him
11:36:11 <Steven> and i was like, yeah they aren't sharing their deepest darkest secrets with you, those kind of secrets are secrets people dont tell anybody... and an arguement ensued about the meaning of secrets
11:37:01 <Steven> it was about as fun as gettin kicked in the junk
11:37:25 Hydrazine ([email protected]) has joined #d&d

11:37:54 <Steven> my step brother
11:38:31 <Brunius> oh fun
11:38:39 <Steven> yeah
11:38:44 <Hydrazine> yo.
11:39:04 <Steven> sup hydra
11:39:10 <Brunius> Umm, how long does government class go for?
11:39:15 <Hydrazine> chillin, chillin.
11:39:24 <Brunius> Because we just got how the government works chucked in under geography
11:39:40 <Steven> i dunno, i assume all term long
11:39:50 <Steven> one or two times a week
11:39:54 <Brunius> How complicated is the government over there
11:40:14 <Steven> well, they do like mock elections
11:40:15 <Steven> debates
11:40:17 <Steven> and what not
11:40:51 <Steven> they make it really complicated
11:41:18 <Steven> and then once they get shoved out into the real world they learn that the class was total bullshit because the governemnt really runs on bribes
11:41:58 <Steven> but who am i to crush his dreams of fairness and equality
11:45:48 <Hydrazine> I think you can generalize down even further. The gov'ment runs on money, just like anything else on that scale.
11:46:39 <Steven> i already dropped him off
11:47:36 <Brunius> HA
11:47:47 <Brunius> You can get a permit to import counterfeit credit cards
11:49:29 <Steven> okay back to building my sorc
11:50:49 <Mort-> Hydra will you play on sat?
11:51:06 <Mort-> I can't - been there done that
11:52:39 <Hydrazine> dunno
11:52:43 <Hydrazine> what is it?
11:53:04 <Steven> Shades of Ice part 1
11:53:29 <Mort-> No sat is city of strangers 2
11:53:31 <Hydrazine> Never played it.
11:53:43 <Mort-> Sunday is shade of ice 1
11:53:55 <Mort-> I will play on Sunday probably khaz
11:54:08 <Steven> ohb yeah you crazy aus people and your funny tiem zone
11:54:13 <Mort-> Sat i can't play because I've played it on mort already
11:54:54 <Steven> im thinkin Sage wildblooded sorc
11:55:51 <Hydrazine> why not?
11:55:56 <Hydrazine> I think its about time I make something new.
11:56:17 <Mort-> Khaz is 3
11:56:28 <Mort-> Get jerus to 5 lol
11:56:34 <Hydrazine> I want to.
11:56:39 <Hydrazine> I said make something new, not play something new.
11:56:43 <Mort-> Then mort and jerus can play :d
11:56:46 <Mort-> Ok :d

12:26:43 <Novel> sorry, Novel
12:27:40 <Ballig> are you sure it was www.pfrpg.com.au
12:27:43 <Ballig> and not paizo.com?
12:27:44 <Novel> As in capital N

12:28:12 <Novel> IT WAS on paizo :( :P *doh* :)
12:28:18 <Ballig> ha
12:29:23 <Ballig> all right, I can see you on the site now
12:29:55 <Brunius> weapon cords, Mort-
12:30:14 <Hydrazine> chords are musical.
12:30:23 <Novel> Absolutely sppiffing my fine man! Cheers wot! *raises glasses, arches monocle
12:31:38 <Ballig> I've sent you an invite to the game
12:31:48 <Ballig> keep in mind the times are in GMT+10 until you change your timezone on the website
12:34:05 <Novel> ty
12:37:02 <Novel> Accepted :D
12:37:20 <Ballig> cool
12:37:41 <Ballig> so basically pathfinder society is pathfinder but with some uniform rules
12:37:56 <Ballig> it lets you play your character in games run by many different GMs
12:38:12 <Ballig> you can check it out on the paizo website and it'll describe it better
12:38:48 <Novel> i know a bit about it
12:39:10 <Ballig> if you go to the paizo website and grab the Pathfinder Society Guide to Organised Play, it will give you all the rules for it
12:39:28 <Ballig> you can either make a character for it (using the rules from that guide), or you can use a pregenerated character for your first game and make a character later

12:46:43 <Novel> I'm game for anything though
12:47:37 <Avatar> forget play by post
12:47:50 <Ballig> play by post would make me want to smack my head against a wall

12:54:41 <Novel> how can i gat to a specific channel on this? -.-
12:54:49 <Novel> http://www.esper.net/publicirc.php
12:55:17 <Ballig> looks like that only works for the EsperNet IRC network
12:55:28 <Novel> i know
12:55:37 <Novel> i'm trying to get on one of their channels
12:55:54 <Novel> cause it's being annoying about it *rolls eyes
12:56:03 <Novel> this #Tarnartion
12:56:26 <Novel> i try typing it in and it says i cant use that command on that window
12:56:38 <Ballig> well when you get to the front page it says "Channels:"
12:56:40 <Ballig> type it into that box
12:56:46 <Ballig> before you hit connect

13:02:24 <Novel> and some plqnning
13:02:33 <Novel> i doubt they'd go to that much effort
13:03:21 <Ballig> it was an elaborate ruse

13:25:14 <Ballig> I googled it, I still don't know what it is
13:25:19 <Ballig> (I googled it before asking)
13:27:14 <Novel> read the vision- i''l link you. It will be more then worth it :D
13:27:45 <Novel> http://www.embersofcaerus.com/content.php/137-The-Vision\
13:28:30 <Novel> a sandbox first-person open world mmorpg with... you know wat, I'm mnot going to ruin the surprise. :P It's currently in develpoment! :D
13:28:53 <Ballig> yeah that's where I went after googling
13:28:56 <Ballig> but I didn't bother reading it all
13:29:15 <Ballig> I read the first 5 words
13:29:25 <Novel> :L
13:29:49 <Mort-> 43.75 percent chance of getting a possible crit on full attack round
13:29:52 <Ballig> hey with that much text, if the first 5 words can't draw me in it has no chance
13:29:53 <Novel> Keep on reading the next 5... and the next 5... and the nex- OM Y SDKDDSN I WANT MOESES!
13:29:55 <Mort-> If i hit
13:29:58 <Mort-> Hrm
13:30:05 <Steven> alright back, i ran to the store
13:30:07 <Ballig> are you welsh
13:30:11 <Steven> was missing mushrooms for dinner
13:30:13 <Novel> Read two paragraphs in. Tjhere definitely is
13:30:18 <Steven> and why the turn around mort?
13:30:24 <Steven> realize they are super useful!
13:30:57 <Mort-> I realized i interpreted
13:31:08 <Mort-> The rules concerning enchantments wrongly
13:31:22 <Novel> a shorter version to get you started here http://www.forsakenstudios.com/prods.php
13:31:26 <Mort-> So i can't give myself pocket haste at 5
13:31:42 <Ballig> is it playable
13:31:47 <Mort-> 2nd best thing is flaming and keen
13:31:50 <Mort-> What else.
13:32:02 <Novel> i'll tell you about that later. ;)
13:32:13 <Novel> It has a t.
13:33:36 <matt> hey guys, for IRC pfs it doesnt seem like there are any healer types, do you think its worth making a cleric?
13:34:08 <Ballig> Brunius, Avatar and I each have clerics
13:34:15 <Ballig> but they're higher level now
13:34:23 <Ballig> because no one else seems to want to play one so we're always in demand :p
13:34:32 <Ballig> http://i.imgur.com/usAS0.jpg
13:35:00 <Novel> :L
13:35:22 <matt> I'm thinking about a kind of battle cleric. anyway, I'll see if I can get it toggether
13:36:46 <Ballig> my advice on a battle cleric is seriously consider the stats
13:36:53 <Ballig> try and determine exactly how you plan on doing the battleing
13:37:13 <Ballig> the last thing you want is to not have high enough stats to do what you want
13:39:37 <matt> I was thinking an 1/2 orc. str 16, dec 11 con 14, int 12, wis 14 cha 12
13:41:57 <matt> I can reduce my decx and in to 10.....
13:42:04 <matt> dex and int
13:44:10 <Ballig> just be aware that with a lower wisdom you won't be able to cast as much as someone with a higher wisdom
13:44:14 <Ballig> and that your wisdom will affect the DC of your spells
13:44:31 <Ballig> (which may not be an issue if you plan to primarily buff yourself etc)
13:44:41 <matt> true, but I was thinking of mostly buffing spells....
13:45:39 Forevernade ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
13:46:04 <Mort-> That's so damn sick
13:48:58 <matt> maybe summoning as well, they problem is when I get higer level I will need to cash more...
13:49:13 <Ballig> the major problem with summoning is that it takes a full round to cast
13:49:24 <Ballig> so you start casting this round, and finish casting next round
13:57:57 <Forevernade> whats sick?!
13:58:49 Fish ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
13:59:25 <Steven> sick people?
14:02:04 <Forevernade> lol
14:02:08 <Forevernade> well i missed the conversation

14:11:09 <matt> that's true
14:19:32 <DarkDaemon> This is a bit late, but I remember my gov't class
14:19:45 <DarkDaemon> We had a mock congress. I was a lobyist.
14:19:54 <Mort-> Lol?
14:20:03 <Mort-> I uh would pass on politics
14:20:14 <DarkDaemon> The election was decided based on mostly money, with a stolen+leaked video also playing a key role.
14:20:33 <DarkDaemon> So I'd say it was a good simulation of real politics.
14:23:13 <Brunius> Hey hang on
14:23:21 <Brunius> if corportaions = people, does that mean they get a vote?
14:23:27 <Brunius> urgh

15:10:29 <Steven> the dog named scotty just tried to lick my face
15:10:38 <Steven> he kept jumping up and trying to lick my face
15:10:41 <Steven> was freakin halarious
15:11:19 <Steven> so whats a good bloodline for a sorc?
15:11:39 <Steven> before i decide for sure on Sage Wildblood, i figure ide better ask opinions
15:11:56 <Mort-> Someone did cross blooded dragon and orc
15:12:14 <Mort-> For max blasting. Was trying to stick it on a magus
15:12:38 <Mort-> To have alterable shocking grasp and bonus to damage die
15:12:47 <Mort-> Didn't really understand how it worked though
15:14:50 <Steven> me either
15:15:59 <Mort-> I don't study sorcs muchg

15:17:01 <Mort-> :)
15:17:56 * Mort- puffs out a bit of smoke
15:18:02 <Steven> I am dragon resistant.
15:18:32 * Mort- tries to rawr then realizes she can only manage a squeaky growl
15:18:56 <Mort-> I wonder if butterfly sting is a good idea
15:19:26 <Steven> yes
15:19:36 <Steven> it can be very helpful
15:20:29 <Steven> I have a character built that does butterfly sting, but i dont play himm because he demands characters that are built for face melting awesomeness
15:21:12 <Mort-> I'm thinking if jerus pairs up with khaz
15:21:29 <Mort-> I do the crits he uses them
15:21:35 <Mort-> At 5 ill have keen already
15:22:02 <Mort-> And he will pick up a scythe in a hurry ^^
15:22:14 <Mort-> If.
15:22:15 <Steven> Salvanar is about to get his Fauchard Keened
15:22:26 <Mort-> I don't need to keen
15:22:35 <Mort-> Ill just auto keen.
15:22:37 <Steven> 15-20 crit range!
15:22:42 <Steven> on a reach weapon
15:22:42 <Mort-> They come in the package

15:25:30 <Mort-> There goes pa and arcane strike though
15:25:34 <Mort-> Sad sad
15:25:41 <Steven> and aparantly she had a thought that if she were to dump me she could get a cat
15:25:42 <Mort-> Do i really want to link so close?
15:25:49 <Steven> and now she feels horrible cause she had that thought

15:40:10 <Brunius> Give in, Steven
15:40:11 * Mort- is puzzled
15:40:24 <Steven> I WONT BRUNIUS!
15:40:25 <Mort-> But seriously. Is butterfly sting worth it?
15:40:41 <Mort-> 2 feats. Not for myself. But for another
15:40:48 <Steven> im not going to go over your character and figure it out. Make a judgement call.
15:41:04 <Mort-> 2 levels to go
15:41:06 <Mort-> No hurry
15:41:23 <Mort-> Only person who can really use it is jerus i think.
15:41:30 <Mort-> Bairaq maybe
15:41:45 <Steven> hmmmm
15:41:50 <Mort-> Perhaps a small barb..but less effective?
15:41:59 <Steven> stats are 10/13/14/18/12/10
15:42:16 <Mort-> You use wis to cast?
15:42:28 <Steven> no, but i hate unwise characters
15:42:48 <Mort-> Sorc shouldn't cha be higher?
15:42:54 <Steven> Sage uses int
15:43:02 <Mort-> Oh
15:43:03 <Mort-> K
15:43:06 <Mort-> That works
15:43:24 <Steven> i suppose i could probably go with a 14dex and dump the wis

15:52:28 <Steven> thats how i roll
15:52:45 <Mort-> Its not your primary casting stat
15:52:52 <Mort-> So i wouldn't bother too much
15:58:28 <Brunius> a sorc's primary casting stat (w/o archetypes) IS cha, Mort-
15:59:01 <Steven> thats what we talking about brunius
15:59:05 <Steven> an archtype
16:00:08 <Mort-> Ya

16:26:23 <Steven> gonna go see if its legal
16:27:20 <Steven> damn its got a blanket statement on it, imma have to go buy the legacy of fire players guide
16:27:31 <Steven> time to txt sam and see if she axes that plan
16:29:12 <Steven> she axed it
16:29:27 <Steven> says i can either have it or d3
16:29:38 <Steven> so of course im going to pick d3

16:32:29 <Brunius> Yeah, looks like I have been
16:32:41 <Brunius> I heard it isn't that good
16:32:52 <Ballig> I hate traits that are all "when you're in <very specific situation> you get <an okay bonus>"
16:32:56 <Hydrazine> matter of opinion.
16:33:06 <Hydrazine> i guess steven likes it.
16:33:45 <Steven> well it seems like everytime im in a dungeon somewhere there are traps
16:33:58 <Steven> and that dungeon just happens to be a ruin of one type or another
16:34:19 <Steven> doesnt matter anyways
16:34:24 <Steven> i cant buy the book
16:34:28 <Steven> so i cant use the trait
16:34:35 <Ballig> I don't think dungeons are ever considered ruins
16:34:38 <Ballig> ruins are aboveground
16:35:03 <Steven> and your of the opinon ruins never have basements?
16:35:20 <Hydrazine> Hmm.
16:35:20 <Ballig> how often have you run into a trap in the basement of a ruin
16:35:21 <Ballig> :p
16:35:28 <Hydrazine> I think FS2 would be considered in a ruin.
16:35:30 <Steven> so far, about 3 times
16:35:38 <Ballig> FS2 might be
16:35:40 <Ballig> but it's aboveground
16:35:49 <Steven> doesnt matter, i cant use it cause i dont have the book
16:36:11 <Ballig> more likely is the place in the kingdom of the impossible

17:01:00 <Ballig> what does an arcane bolt do
17:01:37 matt ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
17:01:39 <Steven> 1d4+1 per 2 levels
17:01:54 <Steven> an okay level 1 and 2 damage ability
17:02:08 <Steven> but will be worthless later on
17:02:26 <Steven> sorry i didnt say that right
17:02:48 <Steven> 1d4 plus 1 per 2 levels
17:04:50 <Ballig> the problem I've always had with those kinds of abilities is that they become almost useless when you are trying to shoot into melee
17:04:50 matt has quit (EOF from client)
17:05:07 <Steven> yeah, they are complete shit after level 2 imo
17:05:39 <Steven> but you can always take a pot shot at something with them in the first two levels while closing the distance or on those trash encounters
17:06:08 matt ([email protected]) has joined #d&d

17:30:33 <Mort-> 101 ways to hell :d
17:32:45 <Steven> 7 languages to start.... pretty decent.
17:33:15 <Ballig> you should start without knowing mwangi
17:33:37 <Steven> I dont see hwo that could be possible considering im a Mwangi Sage
17:34:01 <Ballig> yeah, your parents kept you in a room by yourself and never let you interact with the rest of the tribe
17:34:07 <Ballig> and they taught you a bunch of languages other than mwangi
17:34:24 <Steven> hmmmmm...............
17:34:25 <Steven> no
17:34:37 <Ballig> do it !!
17:34:39 <Steven> no
17:34:42 <Steven> not doin it!
17:34:47 <Ballig> DO IT !!
17:35:26 <Steven> NEVER!
17:43:12 <Steven> guess ill be going with the regular spells for first level
17:43:22 <Steven> magic missle, color spray, and burning hands
17:46:00 <Steven> Do i want +1 hp or +1 known 0-level spell
17:46:07 <Steven> I took toughness...
17:50:12 <Steven> wow... sorcs dont actually get perception...
17:50:17 <Steven> didnt notice that
17:59:19 <Steven> need to come up with a name now
17:59:34 <Steven> I'm thinking....
18:06:38 <Ballig> Jerkhead
18:11:25 <Steven> whatcha think
18:11:26 <Steven> Tabansi Goh-Zenj
18:11:54 <Steven> or maybe Goh'Zenj
18:13:05 <Mort-> The first one is a mouthful. Again so is my name :p
18:13:32 * Steven resists perverse comment
18:13:34 <Mort-> Which is why unlettered barbs can't say it straight
18:13:49 <Mort-> I can imagine calling someone tabby
18:13:51 <Mort-> :d
18:14:29 <Steven> damn time for faction
18:14:50 <Steven> meh.... grand lodge i suppose
18:15:04 <Ballig> I say name it J'r K-hed
18:15:30 <Mort-> Lame ballig
18:15:55 <Steven> not naming him jerk head
18:16:14 <Ballig> you can pronounce it with a french J
18:16:54 <Steven> never!
18:17:09 <Steven> hmmmm, cant decide on perfession
18:17:22 <Ballig> sailor
18:17:37 <Mort-> He already has one
18:17:50 <Mort-> Most of my characters are crafters
18:17:59 <Steven> I'm thinking... herbalist
18:18:07 <Ballig> it should definitely be sialor
18:18:08 <Ballig> sailor
18:18:08 <Mort-> Sounds right
18:18:15 <Mort-> Ausk is one
18:18:28 <Ballig> yeah, he can be a member of Ausk's crew
18:18:38 <Steven> NOPE... btw
18:18:44 <Steven> Ausk is now an Admiral
18:18:51 <Ballig> says who
18:19:06 <Steven> Says the fact that my crew members bought ships
18:19:23 <Ballig> so now you have no crew
18:19:29 <Ballig> they all went their own way
18:19:42 <Mort-> I'm not sailing with ausk.
18:19:48 <Steven> Admiral Swagger was bumped up to Comadore
18:19:59 <Steven> Captain Ausk is now Admiral
18:20:00 <Ballig> you're only an admiral if they actually follow you
18:20:02 <Ballig> who says they do
18:20:21 <Steven> And my First mate is now a Captain
18:20:31 <Steven> and said he wasnt leaving the organization
18:20:52 <Ballig> is it an official organisation?
18:21:02 <Ballig> because it sounds like a bunch of guys with boats who like to call themselves admirals and commodores
18:21:03 <Ballig> :p
18:21:05 <Steven> Unofficial Organization of the pirates at the shop
18:21:17 <Steven> there are 7 of us
18:21:22 <Steven> who are all pirates
18:21:32 <Steven> the universe almost came to a stop
18:21:36 <Steven> and imploaded and what not
18:21:57 <Steven> A ninja took Profession Sailor
18:21:57 <Ballig> how do you crew a single ship with 7 people
18:22:09 <Steven> and asked to join the pirate crew
18:22:10 <Ballig> let alone a fleet
18:22:18 <Steven> and all seven of us said NO!
18:22:22 <Steven> lol
18:22:53 <Steven> A ship automatically comes with a crew
18:23:55 <Ballig> says who
18:24:35 <Steven> says the vanity
18:24:35 <Ballig> at best, keelboats and sailing ships have crews
18:27:16 <Ballig> in the field guide?
18:28:24 <Ballig> ahh it's a property
18:28:45 <Steven> YUp
18:29:05 <Ballig> pretty sure it doesn't give you ranks
18:29:55 <Steven> Well, if you're the owner of a ship.
18:30:12 <Ballig> yeah? if you own a ship?
18:30:22 <Steven> you get to designate the captain right?
18:30:49 <Ballig> on the ship you might be the captain, doesn't make it a rank
18:30:58 <Ballig> certainly doesn't give you the rank of admiral or commodore just because other people own ships and do what you say :p
18:31:29 <Steven> There is no official rank im aware of that gives the rank of captain, admiral, or commodore
18:31:46 <Steven> or rather, vanity or anything
18:31:51 <Ballig> there isn't
18:32:09 <Ballig> except perhaps faction-based armies
18:32:12 <Ballig> like eagle knights
18:32:48 <Steven> yeah, but there are none that are captain, admiral, or commodore
18:32:53 <Ballig> there aren't
18:32:57 <Steven> so its flavor
18:32:58 <Ballig> because you can't be those things!
18:33:43 <Steven> I was playing with the VC of washington
18:34:03 <Steven> and told him i was Captain Ausk, and my buddy walter told him he was Admiral Swagger
18:34:07 <Ballig> did he give you a boon that said you're an admiral
18:34:26 <Steven> and the VC didnt tell us we couldnt
18:34:28 <Ballig> because I can tell you my characters won't be recognising made up ranks!
18:34:50 <Steven> well then you wont be allowed on any of his ships! lol
18:35:10 <Hydrazine> Do you ever ask Major Colson to see his title paperwork?
18:35:44 <Ballig> I'm sure he wears his medals/uniform
18:36:03 <Ballig> and he's a well-known, high-profile member of the eagle knights
18:36:12 <Ballig> I also wouldn't stop our prime minister and ask for verification that she's the prime minister
18:36:23 <Ballig> but if I had some back bencher coming up to me going on about how he's a member of parliament, I might ask him for proof
18:37:12 <Steven> I dont think you would ask Captain Ausk for his Paperwork proving he is the Captain of the Shadow Mastiff.
18:37:24 <Steven> At least not ask for it and keep riding on his boat
18:37:57 <Ballig> I don't consider "captain of a ship" to be a /rank/ or title
18:38:06 <Ballig> admiral, though, clearly is
18:38:16 <Ballig> and I would only be calling him captain on his boat
18:38:19 <Ballig> same as any other captain of a ship
18:38:50 <Steven> Well, thats the only time its relevant anyways.
18:39:03 <Ballig> unless you're introducing yourself as Captain Ausk
18:39:05 <Ballig> or, worse, Admiral Ausk
18:39:06 <Ballig> :p
18:39:13 <Steven> Admiral Ausk now!
18:39:16 <Steven> bwahahahahaha
18:39:27 <Ballig> yeah, my characters won't be recognising a made up title
18:40:13 <Steven> He is in command of the Shadow Mastiff, The Revalry, Whores Pride, and the Daggers Home.
18:40:31 <Ballig> okay
18:40:34 <Ballig> still a made up title
18:41:10 <Ballig> the legitimacy of a title or rank is only as strong as the legitimacy of the organisation that has issued it
18:41:30 <Steven> Well its a pirate organization out of the Shackles.
18:41:47 <Ballig> and I'm sure all the other pirates w ho belong to that organisation are happy to call you admiral
18:41:51 <Ballig> I don't think you should expect anyone else to do the same :p
18:42:51 <Steven> Okay ballig, Lets say you meet Ausk in a game for the first time. He introduces himself as Admiral Ausk. Why would you challenge his claim?
18:43:05 <Ballig> no uniform or medals or anything to back up his claim
18:43:07 <Steven> He disembarked from a ship. Looks like a sea going man of some means.
18:43:10 <Ballig> I might even ask him what army he belongs to
18:43:40 <Ballig> and if I don't recognise the legitimacy of his organisation, I'm not going to acknowledge his title
18:43:52 <Ballig> anyone can step off a ship and call themselves an admiral
18:43:57 <Steven> That assumes you know about every Organization in the Shackles.
18:45:32 <Steven> grrrrrrrrr
18:45:36 <Steven> paizo keeps logging me out
18:45:38 <Steven> fuckin annoying
18:45:47 <Ballig> it doesn't assume that at all
18:45:55 <Ballig> it assumes that I don't recognise the legitimacy of organisations that I don't know about
18:46:42 <Steven> Do you know all the houses of Chelaxia?
18:47:02 <Ballig> as far as I'm concerned it's as bad as organisations here that say they can give you some kind of certification to say you are, for example, a "breastfeeding friendly organisation"
18:47:17 <Ballig> who says they are the authority on whether something is a breastfeeding friendly organisation? just because they say? screw them
18:48:03 <Ballig> Steven: yes
18:50:54 <Steven> Well i dont. So if you claim you're the decendent of some Obscure house. Who am i to tell you, you're not?
18:51:02 <Ballig> you should tell me I'm not
18:51:16 <Ballig> or at least that you don't care, or aren't willing to legitimise my claim
18:51:18 <Steven> no i shouldnt. That does nothing but be rude.
18:51:36 <Ballig> if I'm walking around saying I'm the descendant of an obscure house, feel free to be rude to me about it
18:51:40 <Ballig> it means I'm being an obnoxious pratt
18:53:42 <Steven> If Ausk gets off his boat, meets a VC and identifies himself as Admiral Ausk of the Shackled Dawn Organization.
18:53:58 <Ballig> that doesn't legitimise your claim to anyone but him
18:54:03 <Steven> the VC goes oh, havent heard of them tell me about it.
18:54:12 <Ballig> which is fine, if that's what he wants
18:54:19 <Ballig> you can't force your made up title down my characters' throats, though, man
18:54:26 <Ballig> and it's quite self-involved to think you can
18:55:32 <Steven> Well im sorry i came up with some character flavor you dotn approve of. However if Ausk identifies himself as Admiral Ausk and you cant disprove he is an Admiral then he is an Admiral.
18:55:50 <Ballig> maybe he's still an admiral to you, doesn't make him an admiral to me
18:56:01 <Ballig> flavour is fine, but you can't say you're the ruler of the world and expect everyone to kneel at your feet
18:56:08 <Ballig> just because you're "came up with some character flavour"
18:56:13 <Ballig> you're/you
18:56:34 <Steven> After all Ausk might not recognize the autority of the Taldorian navy. Wont stop them from blowing him out of the water just because he doesnt recognize their authority.
18:56:51 <Ballig> yeah, and if you have the muscle to back up your claims you can claim anything
18:56:55 <Ballig> exactly like "ruler of the world"
18:57:16 <Steven> and ausk has that Muscle to back up he is an Admiral of the pirate group down at the shop.
18:57:45 <Ballig> okay, and if you want to muscle me into calling you an admiral, go for it
18:57:53 <Ballig> until then, don't expect shit
18:58:24 <Steven> why do you think Ausk isnt an Admiral?
18:58:33 <Ballig> because it's a made up title
18:59:12 <Ballig> seems like you're far too invested in something you and some friends made up
18:59:14 <Steven> So because its made up and doesnt conform to a pre existing vanity title its invalid?
18:59:56 <Ballig> because as far as any of my characters are concerned it's you and some friends giving each other a wank under the table and saying you're admirals and commodores
19:01:44 <DarkDaemon> I'm thinking of running something.
19:01:59 <DarkDaemon> 3.5 based, but radically different from standard d&d.
19:02:11 <Ballig> does it have robots
19:02:22 <DarkDaemon> It's been described as "the weirdest, yet enjoyable" experience of d&d.
19:02:30 <DarkDaemon> It could.
19:03:06 <DarkDaemon> The setting it's run in can be almost anything.
19:03:42 <Ballig> can it be the matrix
19:03:59 <DarkDaemon> Honestly, it's most fun played with just that information, IMO. It takes about a minute to get characters ready.
19:04:18 <DarkDaemon> Matrix... could actually work /very/ well, just needs to be modified a touch.
19:04:23 <DarkDaemon> Huh. Thanks for the idea.
19:04:29 <DarkDaemon> Matrix works astoundingly well.
19:04:31 <Steven> Well, if seven people buy seven different ships and designate themselves as the captains of each of those ships. He is the Captian of whatever the ship name is. If they designate one person in charge of all the ships then one person becomes an admiral. definition of Admiral is: A commander of a fleet or naval squadron, or a naval officer of very high rank.
19:05:02 <Ballig> Steven: not even arguing about this more, you know how I feel about it
19:05:06 <Ballig> you aren't going to change my mind by repeating yourself
19:05:33 <Steven> I dont see how any of your characters could come up with a dispute to that logic other then, well im being hard headed.
19:05:57 <Ballig> I've already told you
19:05:58 <Ballig> like three times
19:08:05 <DarkDaemon> Oh hey
19:08:12 <DarkDaemon> #letsArgueAboutRanks isn't taken
19:08:20 <Ballig> surprising
19:08:35 <Ballig> good thing the topic of conversation isn't restricted by the name of the channel
19:08:37 <Ballig> that was a close one
19:08:50 <DarkDaemon> Yep!
19:09:53 <Steven> fo sho
19:10:28 <DarkDaemon> Ballig, are you interested in my game? (dubbed NomQuest)
19:10:43 <DarkDaemon> I want to know if I should bother you about it if it ever takes off.
19:11:21 <Ballig> maybe, probably depends most on timeslot
19:12:37 <Steven> OH MANS!
19:12:39 <Steven> http://paizo.com/products/btpy8r0d?Pathfinder-Special-Race-for-the-Runecarved-Key

19:21:40 <DarkDaemon> Subtle threats
19:21:45 <DarkDaemon> Subtle threats are your friends
19:21:57 <Mort-> Lol

19:56:12 <Ballig> http://i.imgur.com/wh73z.jpg
19:56:49 <Hydrazine> kinda cool. kinda scary.
19:56:59 <Hydrazine> Not sure how I'd feel taking a dump over a big pit.
19:57:35 <Ballig> it might... scare the shit out of you
19:58:06 <Hydrazine> I'd spent the whole time on the throne thinking about what happens if the glass breaks.
19:58:13 <Ballig> yep
19:58:18 <Ballig> it's an old elevator shaft
19:58:39 <Ballig> someone suggested replacing it with electrochromatic glass
19:58:52 <Steven> yeah....
19:58:54 <Ballig> the glass that is frosted until you send a signal to it and it becomes clear
19:58:56 <Steven> i wouldnt poop there ever
19:59:20 <Ballig> you probably could actually make someone piss/shit themselves with that kind of glass
20:00:56 <Steven> bowl evacuation
20:05:19 <Steven> hehehehe
20:05:25 <Steven> Sam wants more Speghetti
20:05:40 <Steven> so imma get it for her and then call her fatty
20:05:43 <Steven> heheheh
20:05:52 <Ballig> yeah, she sounds pretty obese
20:06:25 <Steven> totally
20:12:14 <Steven> oh man, she kicked me right in the shin with her shoes on
20:12:20 <Steven> she made me bleed man
20:13:13 <Hydrazine> Have you considered that you may be a victim of domestic abuse?
20:13:22 <Brunius> Yeah man
20:13:23 <Steven> right now i totaly am
20:13:28 <Brunius> you should report it
20:13:32 <Brunius> and get sam arrested
20:13:37 <Mort-> I wouldn't do that
20:13:39 <Steven> she says shut up or she'll beat you too
20:13:40 <Brunius> serves her right after thinking about dumping you!
20:13:42 <Hydrazine> But you won't because she'll get the chain, huh?
20:15:39 <Steven> pretty sure she'll get the balls too lol
20:15:51 <Hydrazine> I think shes already got the balls.
20:15:59 <Hydrazine> Keeps them in her purse, by the looks of things.
20:16:49 <Steven> I have visitation rights

21:14:46 <Avatar> brunius hasn't said anything for like an hour
21:15:36 <Brunius> can you guys stop saying my name
21:15:43 <Brunius> it's kinda annoying
21:15:49 <Brunius> because the thing flashes
21:19:30 <Steven> brunius
21:19:32 <Steven> brunius
21:19:34 <Steven> brunius
21:21:03 <Brunius> :(
21:22:09 <Avatar> you can't really blame us for saying your name just because you set it up to flash
21:22:16 <Avatar> if it's not effective, maybe you should turn it off
21:22:55 <Brunius> It is effective
21:22:58 <Brunius> That's the problem
21:22:58 <Avatar> I used to have tony on my highlight, until I ran into a channel where a guy used tony as part of his nickname
21:23:23 <Avatar> it isn't effective if you have to say stop saying your name when we aren't trying to trigger it

21:37:11 <Steven> alright back
21:37:38 <Ballig> not playing shades of ice 1 with us this weekend Steven?
21:37:57 <Steven> i should be able to
21:38:12 <Steven> i just have to make sure sam is not going to schedule anything
21:38:16 <Ballig> hasn't dicebot been bitching at you about the invitation?
21:38:37 <Steven> NOPE
21:39:47 <Avatar> is that why you jokers don't accept or decline invites
21:40:13 <Steven> nope i dont accept or decline unless i know for sure im going to be there
21:40:23 <Ballig> you know you can accept with comments
21:40:23 dicebot ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
21:40:37 <Avatar> should people accept with comments if they aren't sure
21:40:50 <Ballig> if the comment says "I'm not sure", isn't that pretty much what it's for
21:41:06 <Steven> i dont want to accept with a "ill be there unless sam says no"
21:41:12 <Avatar> haha
21:41:13 <Avatar> !
21:41:23 <Steven> ide rather accept when i know for sure if i can be there
21:41:25 <Avatar> I wouldn't accept with a comment saying I don't know
21:41:34 <Avatar> like you would come back to me and say why did you accept if you aren't sure ?
21:42:00 <Avatar> don't know how you'd get around that, a maybe option doesn't help much
21:42:02 <Ballig> no one's going to come back at someone like that man
21:42:04 <Ballig> that's what comments are there for
21:42:16 <Avatar> can you comment without accepting or declining
21:42:24 <Avatar> that would work
21:42:27 <Ballig> it's better to know that you have 2 definites and 2 maybes
21:42:33 <Ballig> so a day before the game you can chase up the maybes
21:42:37 <Ballig> than to think only 2 people are interested
21:42:40 <Ballig> and you cancel the game
21:42:42 <Avatar> maybe it should be changed to definite/maybe/decline
21:42:52 <Ballig> stop being such princesses
21:43:02 <Avatar> well it doesn't make sense
21:43:06 <Ballig> it does make sense
21:43:11 <Steven> i'll know on my thursday. A day before its time to play.
21:43:11 <Ballig> people have actually been doing it
21:43:14 <Avatar> Steven: why didn't you accept
21:44:42 <Steven> i know for sure i cant play yours avatar, ive already played it.
21:51:44 <Steven> Suppose i better upload Tabansi

22:52:58 <Mort-> Urk
22:52:59 <Mekkis> it's a mort!
22:53:16 <Mekkis> punt it!
22:53:41 * Mekkis punts Mort-
22:53:52 <Mort-> What?!
22:54:02 * Mort- starts crying
22:54:07 <Mort-> You big bully!
22:54:21 <Mekkis> anyone want to start a mort punting club?
22:54:25 <Mekkis> :P
22:54:44 <Mort-> How could you even think of that!
22:54:54 <Mekkis> I killed a PC tonight!
22:55:00 * Mort- gives a plainitive wail!
22:55:06 <Mekkis> in Kaer Maga
22:55:09 <Mort-> Congrats. What level and class
22:55:20 <Mort-> 1 or 2?
22:55:32 <Mekkis> Ranger 5
22:55:39 <Mort-> Ah
22:55:43 <Mort-> 2?
22:55:48 <Mekkis> with a fiendish wolverine!
22:55:59 <Mort-> Are they really that bad?
22:56:11 <Mort-> I haven't really looked into summoning yet
22:56:17 <Mekkis> sort of
22:56:21 <Mekkis> their AC is shit
22:57:00 <Mekkis> but they do claw claw bite at +11/+11/+11 for 1d6+9/1d6+9/1d4+9 damage
22:57:36 <Mekkis> when raging, augment summoning and smite good
22:57:44 <Mort-> Ok one dead wizard probably
22:58:12 <Mekkis> ?
22:59:13 <Mort-> Well it would kill me pretty quick :d
22:59:46 <Mort-> Really need to look into my run away skills
23:00:37 <Mekkis> it knocked the rogue to negatives in two rounds
23:01:10 <Mort-> Lol
23:01:17 <Mort-> Tpk? Not?
23:01:41 <Mekkis> nope
23:01:47 <Mort-> You know i wonder if permanent protection from evil is a good thing or not
23:02:52 <Mort-> At least fiendish whatever shit can't touch me
23:03:06 <Mekkis> how do you get that?
23:04:37 <Mort-> Not telling you because you punted me and wanted to start a mort punting club
23:05:03 <Mort-> Its cheaper then buying a cloak of resistance and a ring of protection though
23:05:53 <Mort-> Say no to bad dominate, charm person and suggestion by evil creatures day
23:06:08 <Mort-> Considering it seriously

23:12:29 <Mekkis> true
23:12:35 <Mekkis> I should make it more general
23:12:42 <Mekkis> a Lemure punting club
23:13:19 <Mort-> Uh ok
23:13:25 <Mort-> :d
23:13:28 <Mekkis> a Lemure, not a Lemur
23:13:34 * Mort- isn't offended
23:13:51 * Mort- is a lemur not a lemure
23:14:08 <Mekkis> why punt gnomes?
23:14:48 <Mort-> Because gnomes are evil!
23:14:59 <Mekkis> Lemures are evil
23:15:05 <Mort-> There fore i need permanent protection from evil
23:15:16 <Mekkis> they're gelatinous blobs of pure evil
23:15:20 <Mort-> They are devils after all.
23:15:27 <Mort-> So why would you be surprised
23:15:37 <Mekkis> but gnomes
23:15:41 <Mekkis> they're Never evil!
23:16:00 <Mort-> Oh no they are so good at blowing things. And themselves up.
23:16:38 <Mort-> So a gnome gets into your house. Says he isn't evil. Then blows your house and you up
23:16:51 <Mort-> All because he couldn't keep his itchy fingers to himself
23:19:06 <Mekkis> you're confusing them for halflings
23:19:11 <Mekkis> halflings are the thieves
23:19:20 <Mekkis> and goblins are the ones who blow themselves up
23:20:41 <Mort-> Gnomes blew their city up in wow
23:20:56 <Mort-> I wouldn't let a gnome into my house!
23:21:29 <Mekkis> Mort-, that's Gnomes in WoW
23:21:36 <Mekkis> stop crossmetagaming!
23:22:17 <Mort-> Well anyone crazy enough to strap themselves to flying kites have screws loose
23:22:40 <Mort-> Again. Shouldn't say too much on that. I know a wizard who would love to fly :d
23:22:49 <Mort-> First memorize feather fall lol
23:23:36 <Mekkis> Mort-, one of my cow-orkers jumps out of planes. Several times in one day.
23:24:12 <Mort-> The planes have landed on the ground right
23:24:29 <Mekkis> nope
23:24:34 <Mekkis> 4000 feet
23:25:06 <Mort-> Lol actually I'm scared of heights in rl.
23:25:08 <Mekkis> in the last three months, he's taken off in a plane 40 times, and hasn't landed in one
23:25:12 <Mort-> :)
23:25:29 <Mekkis> keep in mind, that you're pretty crazy to start adventuring in the first place....
23:26:56 <Mort-> Yeah but she will look up feather fall first
23:26:56 <Mekkis> http://paizo.com/forums/dmtz5lsc?Update-on-Valeros-level-7
23:26:57 <Mekkis> hehe
23:27:11 <Mort-> Nah. Khaz wouldn't be interested in flying
23:28:23 <Mort-> As i said. We get ourselves screwed but not pregens
23:29:03 <Mort-> Anyway i was on lunch break at that time
23:29:31 <Mekkis> Ezren didn't die
23:29:36 <Mekkis> he got confused :)
23:29:57 <Mort-> Mis did matrix
23:29:58 <Mekkis> but kept rolling "act normally" or "attack nearest creature"
23:31:04 <Mort-> Khaz will just go oh i can fly? Lets go get some use off this spell
23:31:34 <Mort-> Mort will be like wow! I can FFFLLLY?.
23:39:45 <Mekkis> hmmm
23:39:55 <Mekkis> you can buy a scroll with multiple spells on it, right?
23:40:44 <Mort-> I dunno
23:40:47 <Mort-> Its weird rules
23:41:08 <Mekkis> and they all have to be from the same caster
23:42:12 <Mekkis> SO:
23:42:40 <Mort-> Can you cast evil spells if you have permanent protection against evil?
23:42:45 <Mekkis> you can get a scroll of Bless weapon and lesser restoration for 100gp!
23:42:53 <Mekkis> Mort-, sure!
23:43:40 <Mort-> Considering if my evil overlord will get pissed if i walk around with it on at all times
23:45:11 <Mort-> How is lesser restoration so cheap btw
23:46:14 <Mekkis> because
23:46:22 <Mekkis> since they all need to be from the same caster
23:46:23 <Mekkis> and
23:46:32 <Mekkis> only a paladin can cast bless weapon
23:46:56 <Mekkis> the scroll of bless weapon and lesser restoration must have been made by a paladin!
23:47:49 <Mekkis> *This sounds like some extreme RAW cooking
23:48:18 <Mort-> Yeah but still you need to pay for the scroll levels?
23:48:23 <Mekkis> yeah
23:48:39 <Mekkis> but bless weapon is a 1st level paladin spell
23:48:44 <Mekkis> as is lesser restoration
23:48:50 <Mort-> Oh
23:49:11 <Mort-> Take caster level of 2?
23:49:15 <Mekkis> yeah
23:49:23 <Mekkis> (minimum for Paladin spells, iirc)
23:49:28 <Mort-> Pallies are supposed to have half caster level
23:49:53 <Mort-> Level 4 pally is 2 cl
23:53:27 <Mekkis> ooh
23:53:31 <Mekkis> http://paizo.com/products/btpy8rce/discuss?Pathfinder-Campaign-Setting-Paths-of-Prestige
23:53:38 <Mekkis> that's a must buy!
23:54:06 <Mort-> Lol
23:54:19 * Mort- fluffs mek gently
23:54:25 <Mekkis> why are you laughing?
23:54:42 <Mort-> All i need to do.
23:54:52 <Mekkis> By Jason Bulmahn, Benjamin Bruck, Matt Goodall, Jason Nelson
23:55:00 <Mekkis> how can you NOT like that!
23:55:06 <Mort-> Is to find Google docs
23:55:12 <Mort-> I don't need to pay
23:55:18 <Mort-> :d
23:55:25 <Mort-> Since I'm not playing in person
23:55:31 <Mekkis> don't worry
23:55:36 <Mekkis> it's not out until August
23:55:44 <Mort-> No one can actually
23:55:52 <Mort-> Ask me to show pdfs
23:56:06 <Mort-> i can use any materials i like lol
23:56:09 <Mekkis> I can ask you if you've got the books
23:56:28 <Mort-> I don't have any books :d
23:56:31 <Mort-> You know that
23:56:32 <Mekkis> and in the Guide, it specifically says that you're not to lie to the GM
23:56:34 <Mekkis> :S
23:56:43 <Mort-> I never lied
23:56:49 <Mekkis> I never asked :S
23:56:51 <Mort-> I tell you now i have no books
23:56:55 <Mort-> Never had :d
23:56:57 <Mort-> Lol
23:57:19 <Mort-> Everything i know is off d20
23:57:37 <Mort-> That's why I'm laughing at you
23:57:43 <Mekkis> knowing Goodall, they'll be something that's got a tiny loophole
23:57:44 <Mort-> I don't own any books
23:58:05 <Mort-> The whole book might be pfs banned
23:58:07 <Mekkis> (that he'll drive a truck through in the next scenario he writes)
23:58:37 <Mort-> You said yourself too many splat books fk up gameplay
23:59:05 <Mort-> Like antagonize before errata
23:59:32 <Mort-> Makes great story material. But when you get fishing spiders. Somethings wrong lol
