49:49 <BoomerET> Howdy DarkDaemon 
54:32 <DarkDaemon> hey
54:34 <DarkDaemon> gtg
03:22 <BoomerET> On the character template, under weapons, what does TAB stand for?
07:16 <Avatar> total attack bonus
07:28 <BoomerET> Thanks
07:49 <BoomerET> My latest char sheet is on my other notebook, so I'll try and work on that today.
08:01 <BoomerET> Got everything filled out up to that point.
08:16 <Avatar> cool, upload it
11:54 <BoomerET> I can't, it's on my other notebook.
12:13 <BoomerET> Let me boot the thing up and pray my boss doesn't look behind him.
12:25 <Avatar> I'm going to bed soon

29:13 rzv ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
48:23 <BoomerET> Just bought another 4 pdf's from Paizo. Trying to finish out the Pathfinder collection
48:38 <BoomerET> I'm hoping I'm at least halfway.
48:43 <BoomerET> But doubtful
48:55 <BoomerET> I don't have any of the seasons of PFS
51:52 <BoomerET> How're you this fine day?
11:47 <BoomerET> That good huh?
53:23 <Ballig> it's too early
55:39 <Brunius> 6:55am
00:09 <BoomerET> Ballig, what environ did you use to create CA?
00:36 <Ballig> Qt
01:28 <BoomerET> Did you use the Nokia Qt Designer?
01:36 <BoomerET> (Is there anything else?)
01:49 <BoomerET> Did you write it in Python?
01:52 <Ballig> I think you can use other tools, but I used the Qt creator
01:55 <BoomerET> Is this too many questions?
01:59 <Ballig> I wrote the original CA in Python, but version 2 is a remake
02:29 <BoomerET> I used to be a developer, before I realized there was more money in networking.
03:21 <BoomerET> and where the hell do I get my Raspberry Pi? Jeesh
04:23 <BoomerET> Oh cool, $350 Buy It Now on eBay. Brand new they're $35, jeesh.
04:44 <Ballig> yeah but don't you want a BRAND NEW iphone (box) for $200?
04:49 <Ballig> I mean, it's a brand new IPHONE (box)
05:36 <BoomerET> Hmm, not an Apple fanboy. Android fanboy.
05:54 <Ballig> yeah but it's a brand new iphone (box)!
06:41 <BoomerET> A new box?????
06:57 <BoomerET> Damn, now that's a great deal.
07:14 <Ballig> for only $200!
07:17 <Ballig> and it's unlockeD!
07:45 <BoomerET> You doing the remake in Python?
07:53 <Ballig> no the remake was the Qt version
09:01 <BoomerET> I thought Qt was just a framework?
09:56 <Ballig> yeah, I didn't use Qt Python
09:59 <Ballig> I used Qt Visual C++
10:05 <BoomerET> Ahh, ok.
10:34 <BoomerET> Never really cared for C++, I grew up on C. OOP makes my brain go numb. Wrappers aren't my friend.
11:08 <BoomerET> I used to write firmware, and had to get down & dirty to eek out everything we possibly could.
12:04 <BoomerET> Boss & Marketing Team: Dave, We just promised client that we could add XX to the modem. How long before you can have it done?
12:27 <Ballig> ha
12:27 <BoomerET> Dave: 2 years when Conexant comes out with their new chipset.
13:24 <BoomerET> I used to write firmware for DSL modems (and further back, drivers for HP jukeboxes)
14:02 <BoomerET> Now I sit in a chair, and if I feel froggy, pump out a couple lines of Ruby each day.
14:21 <Ballig> did you not sit in a chair while you wrote firmware
14:55 <BoomerET> Yup, and had an office where the entire back wall was 1st floor windows looking at a parking lot.
15:16 <BoomerET> Now I sit in an open area, and see models and designers all day long.
15:47 <BoomerET> No more working in sausage factories for me!
16:11 <Ballig> yeah that chlorine smell would get to me
19:51 <BoomerET> Where do I find Total Attack Bonus for a weapon I'm carrying?
20:15 <BoomerET> s/Where/How/g
20:40 <Ballig> it'd be equal to your Base Attack Bonus + modifier (strength for melee, dexterity for ranged) and then any bonuses you might have with that specific weapon or weapon type
20:52 <Ballig> so if you have weapon focus in that kind of weapon, you'd add that. if it was a masterwork weapon, you'd add the masterwork bonus in there
20:53 <Ballig> etc
23:34 <BoomerET> Ok, so on the example template, I see +10/+5 for TAB. +10 is melee and +5 is ranged?
23:46 <BoomerET> (On the morningstar)
23:57 <Ballig> nah. that would be to show you how it works when you have iterative attacks
24:09 <Ballig> once your base attack bonus is at +6 or higher, you get another attack
24:13 <BoomerET> Ahhhh, ok.
24:21 <Ballig> so a base attack bonus of +6 is written as +6/+1 because the second attack is always 5 less
24:41 <BoomerET> Even when I played 2e, I never really knew the rules, jeesh. Don't know what makes me think I can now.
25:08 <BoomerET> Excellent, great explanation, thanks.
41:54 <Hydrazine> ha.
42:19 <Hydrazine> We're pretty good on the rules. Mostly. Feel free to ask if you get anything else.
42:32 <Hydrazine> Yeah. 10/5 TAB means you can swing twice in a full attack.

03:53 <Mort-> Morning
04:27 <BoomerET> Afternoon!
04:41 <Hydrazine> Evening
05:45 <Mort-> Funny jokerp
06:01 <Mort-> I've been having dreams every night
07:22 <Mort-> Weird ones like my brothers fish eating up all his water plants
12:14 <BoomerET> Are they Plecostmus'?
13:42 <Mort-> They are greedysaurus ^^
14:38 <BoomerET> Hahaha
16:44 <ZorkBot> >You are carrying:
16:46 <ZorkBot>   A leather bag of coins
16:48 <ZorkBot>   A screwdriver
16:50 <ZorkBot>   A nasty knife
16:52 <ZorkBot>   A rope
16:54 <ZorkBot>   A glass bottle
16:56 <ZorkBot>   The glass bottle contains:
16:58 <ZorkBot>     A quantity of water
17:00 <ZorkBot>   A brass lantern (providing light)
17:02 <ZorkBot>   A brown sack
17:13 <Mekkis> #put treasures in case
17:14 <ZorkBot> >You can't see any case here!
17:17 <Mekkis> #look
17:18 <ZorkBot> >Treasure Room
17:20 <ZorkBot> This is a large room, whose east wall is solid granite. A number of discarded bags, which crumble at your touch, are scattered about on the floor. There is an exit down a staircase.
17:22 <ZorkBot> There is a stiletto here.
17:24 <ZorkBot> There is a silver chalice, intricately engraved, here.
17:36 <Mekkis> #drop sack
17:37 <ZorkBot> >Dropped.
17:37 <Mort-> I'm a cookie saurus
17:40 <Mekkis> #take chalice
17:41 <ZorkBot> >Taken.
17:57 <Mekkis> #down
17:58 <ZorkBot> >Cyclops Room
18:01 <Mekkis> #look
18:02 <ZorkBot> >Cyclops Room
18:04 <ZorkBot> This room has an exit on the northwest, and a staircase leading up.
18:06 <ZorkBot> The east wall, previously solid, now has a cyclops-sized opening in it.
18:11 <Mekkis> #east
18:12 <ZorkBot> >Strange Passage
18:14 <ZorkBot> This is a long passage. To the west is one entrance. On the east there is an old wooden door, with a large opening in it (about cyclops sized).
18:19 <Mekkis> #east
18:20 <ZorkBot> >Living Room
18:26 <Mekkis> #put treasures in case
18:27 <ZorkBot> >Which treasures do you mean, the chalice or the leather bag of coins?
18:32 <Mekkis> #both
18:33 <ZorkBot> >I don't know the word "both".
18:38 <Mekkis> #chalice
18:39 <ZorkBot> >There was no verb in that sentence!
18:45 <Mekkis> #put chalice in case
18:46 <ZorkBot> >Done.
19:06 <Mekkis> you can take it from here, mort
19:13 <Mort-> Lol
19:19 <Mort-> Going to bed :p
19:27 <Mort-> I'm confused
19:35 <Mort-> #turn off light
19:36 <ZorkBot> >The brass lantern is now off.
19:56 <Mekkis> #save 1
19:57 <ZorkBot> >That sentence isn't one I recognize.
20:01 <Mekkis> #save game
20:02 <ZorkBot> >[game -> gate]
20:04 <ZorkBot> That sentence isn't one I recognize.
20:09 <Mort-> Why didn't you try to kill the cyclops btw
20:25 <Mort-> Of course you left the sword in the maze
20:53 <Mort-> !exit
20:54 <ZorkBot> >[!exit -> exit]
20:56 <ZorkBot> You can't go that way.
21:06 <Mort-> How do you end session
21:16 <Mort-> End
21:22 <Mort-> !end
21:23 <ZorkBot> >[!end -> send]
21:25 <ZorkBot> What do you want to !end for?
21:39 <Mekkis> !save
21:48 <Mekkis> !save 1
21:49 <ZorkBot> >[!save -> save]
21:51 <ZorkBot> Enter saved game to store: 
21:53 <ZorkBot> Ok.
21:58 <Mekkis> !quit
21:59 <ZorkBot> >[!quit -> quit]
22:01 <ZorkBot> Your score is 90 (total of 350 points), in 332 moves.
22:03 <ZorkBot> This gives you the rank of Novice Adventurer.
22:07 <Mort-> Oh lol
22:14 <Mort-> I think mostly by you
22:40 <Mort-> I couldn't even get into the dungeon
22:43 <Mekkis> #y
22:44 <ZorkBot> Do you wish to leave the game? (Y is affirmative): 
22:46 <ZorkBot> The interpreter has ended the session.
22:48 <Mort-> At least i knew what T9 on
22:50 <Mort-> To do
23:00 <Mekkis> heh
23:01 <Mort-> When i saw a troll
23:21 <Mort-> But that was about it
23:30 <Mort-> My lamp is probably going to run out soon
23:32 <Mekkis> did you get the egg?
23:37 <Mort-> No
23:45 <Mort-> I have a horrible sense of direction
24:01 <Mort-> Not to mention claustrophobia :d
24:21 <Mekkis> I draw a mak
24:23 <Mekkis> map*
24:35 <Mekkis> hmmm
24:38 <Mort-> I am on cell with no paper :d
24:47 <Mort-> Royal fk up
24:51 <Mekkis> if you don't have the egg, chances are you won't be able to finish it
24:52 <Mort-> Hi mekkis
24:54 <Mort-> !
25:07 <Mort-> Yeah i probably fked up big time
25:19 <Mort-> By leaving my lantern on too long
25:25 <Mort-> Hey its my first try :p
26:18 <Mort-> Oh man that's tiring
26:43 <Mort-> Well I'm not perfect ^^
26:45 <Mort-> Oh shit.
26:52 <Mort-> I need to give a speech on Monday
27:04 <Mort-> Skewwed
27:42 <Mort-> My brother is far better then i am when it comes to mapless navigation
28:00 <Mort-> He is like oh the pro :p
28:19 <Mekkis> try wumpus
28:27 <Mort-> For me i couldn't remember how to get to a place till after the 3rd try or so
28:30 <Mekkis> if you don't see a prompt, just type # 
28:34 <Mekkis> # 
28:40 <Mort-> I think i drained too may brain cells
28:43 <Mort-> Many
28:53 <Mort-> Even pfs isn't that tiring :d
29:19 <Mort-> Its like the old space quest series
29:38 <Mort-> Which both my bro and i couldn't complete without a guide
31:13 <Mort-> And yes. He has more brains then i do
31:24 <Mort-> My brother does :p
31:32 <Mort-> But I'm midly sneakier
32:57 DarkDaemon ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
34:20 <BoomerET> Hello DarkDaemon 
34:27 <DarkDaemon> hey
37:40 <BoomerET> On my character sheet that I generated, it doesn't list the knowledge (xxx) skills, why is this?
38:20 <BoomerET> Are skills such that anybody can try something, it's just that it's likely to fail?
39:32 <BoomerET> Or does PFS treat Knowledge skills differently (like it also has no item creation?)
40:23 <Hydrazine> No, PFS still has knowledge skills. I am unsure why whatever your using is giving you issues.
40:27 <Mort-> Oh mekkis.
40:42 <Mort-> My brother is currently playing diablo 3
40:42 <BoomerET> Hero Lab of course
40:45 <Mort-> As a monk
41:05 <BoomerET> I mean, I have a +1 to Int, so I would think they would all be at least +1 right?
41:24 <Hydrazine> Hmm. What are you making?
41:29 <BoomerET> Cleric
41:45 <Hydrazine> Should definately have some knowledges on there then.
42:01 <Hydrazine> Pretty sure Clerics get atleast religion and history as class skills.
42:49 <BoomerET> There's 4 or 5 knowledge skills that they get according to the core rules.
44:00 Forevernade ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
46:05 <Hydrazine> not familiar with using HL. Can you add them in yourself, fix it?
47:27 <BoomerET> Oh, of course.
47:39 <BoomerET> They appear in HL, but not on the generated PDF.
47:56 <BoomerET> Wait, let me double-check that.
48:01 <Hydrazine> could be because you aren't putting ranks in?
48:24 <BoomerET> So if you don't put any ranks in, you can't use a skill?
49:18 <Hydrazine> can't use knowledge skills untrailed unless the dc is 10 or less.
50:01 <Hydrazine> Depends on the skill. For example, acrobatics, appraise and bluff you can use just fine untrained. treat it as 0 ranks.
51:00 <Hydrazine> disable device, handle animal, use magic device.. things like that can't be used untrained.
51:48 <BoomerET> What's the difference between PFS module, and Sanctioned module?
52:30 <Hydrazine> Hm. I could not tell you with accuracy, sorry. Don't believe I've ever done a sanctioned module.
52:33 <BoomerET> Ok, that skill hit explains why it's not on my sheet.
53:51 <Mort-> I think sanctioned mods have less lewt
53:58 <Hydrazine> chances are, the dc on a knowledge check isn't 10 or lower.
54:48 <Hydrazine> But yeah, I think it makes sense, the trained/untrained thing. Noone has to teach you how to lie for you to give it a (possibly bad) shot. Disabling bombs? Would you do it without training?
56:02 <BoomerET> Only with a very long stick.
58:10 * Mort- wouldnt. I'm a scared mur you know
59:22 <Hydrazine> I'd atleast take a look. Mostly because I'm confident in my electronics skills. But I would consider that training, for the comparison to disable device.
01:54 <BoomerET> Were you an ET too?
01:57 <BoomerET> or EM?
01:59 <Hydrazine> ET.
03:32 <BoomerET> My char so far: http://www.pfrpg.com.au/viewchar.php5?char=422
03:38 <Mort-> yup going to call a friend.. thank you for the awesome idea. All though I'm not 100% if PFS will allow me mounting another pc. 
03:48 <BoomerET> wtf?
04:19 <BoomerET> Oh, I was looking at #421, thought I had really messed up.
04:35 Mort- has quit (EOF from client)
04:42 Mort- ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
05:06 <Mort-> Why?
05:21 <BoomerET> Why what?
05:27 <Mort-> Boomeret
05:36 <BoomerET> Why BoomerET?
05:42 <BoomerET> I was an ET on a Boomer
05:44 <Hydrazine> because hes an ET from a boomer.
05:45 <Hydrazine> Duh.
05:49 <Mort-> Do you have enough money for scalemail
05:56 <Mort-> I wish to highlight your name
06:06 <Mort-> That's why i said it as your name was spelt
06:43 <Mort-> You probably don't need combat casting
06:56 <Mort-> Humans start with 1 bonus feat.
06:57 <Hydrazine> Yeah, but then you waited until after we're all confused to talk about what you want his attention for
06:58 <BoomerET> Thanks, I'm making those changes!
07:20 <Mort-> Generally the only people who will take combat casting are magi
07:36 <Hydrazine> Eh. He can.
07:42 <Mort-> Ok boomer
07:53 <Mort-> He can channel if he needs to heal
08:23 <Hydrazine> Skills are off.
08:27 <Mort-> There is even a school of thought saying magi don't need combat casting and you take it because you are a nub and can't position yourself well
08:33 <Hydrazine> Clerics get 2 base. +1 int. +1 human.
09:40 <Mort-> And if you went to buy studded leather and all your fancy gear please deduct your gp off
10:50 mortswishytail ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
10:51 Mort- has quit (EOF from client)
11:06 <BoomerET> I lost the studded leather and added scale mail.
11:08 <Hydrazine> Should stick your channeling dice and amount on the sheet somewhere. Willing for a recommendation for your extra feat?
11:19 <BoomerET> Of course!
11:28 <BoomerET> I was looking at Dodge
11:36 <mortswishytail> Selective channeling
11:40 <Hydrazine> selective channeling. oh, shit. no cha.
11:43 * mortswishytail jumps up and down
11:44 <mortswishytail> Lol
11:54 * mortswishytail giggles
11:56 mortswishytail has quit (Quit: Bye)
12:00 Mort- ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
12:05 <Mort-> Back
12:20 <BoomerET> Hmm, which book is Selective channeling in? It's not in my list.
12:29 <BoomerET> I may need to add the sourcebook.
12:44 <Hydrazine> Seems like most of the desire for channeling happens in combat. 
12:55 <Hydrazine> And then you got the issue that everyone within 30 feet gets it.
13:02 <Mort-> Where did the +1 misc reflex bonus come from
13:25 <Hydrazine> selective channeling is core I think..
13:35 <Mort-> And its nice to bring a crossbow.
13:45 <Hydrazine> Hes got one .
13:54 <Mort-> However what were you intending to shoot out of it? :p
13:55 <Mort-> Air? ;)
14:06 <BoomerET> I'm not that far yet.
14:09 <Mort-> He has one. Where is his ammunition?
14:19 * Mort- giggles more
14:54 <BoomerET> Maybe Selective Channeling is called something else?
14:59 <Mort-> Luv clerics
15:09 <Hydrazine> What are you looking in?
15:20 <Mort-> Nuff said
15:20 <Mort-> Hydra is the one with the books!
15:21 <Mort-> Not me!
16:13 * BoomerET goes to search his pdf's
16:47 <Mort-> D20 doesn't say where selective channeling comes from
16:52 <Hydrazine> Core page 132.
16:54 <Hydrazine> Bottom right.
17:12 * Mort- claps
17:27 <Mort-> Unfortunately i think he just went to be a book worn
17:30 <Mort-> Worm
17:38 <Mort-> Boomer come back!
17:42 <BoomerET> I'm doing a global search.
17:49 <Hydrazine> But I just found it.
17:54 <Mort-> Do as hydra tells you :d
18:00 <Mort-> He is always right!
18:06 <Hydrazine> But hes older than me!
18:14 * Mort- tries flattery in hope of getting an extra cookie
18:22 <Mort-> Hey. Got cookie?
18:26 <BoomerET> That's why, my cha is too low :(
19:08 <Hydrazine> The functionality of channeling in combat really shifts based on whether or not you're healing the baddies too.
19:30 <Mort-> You haven't started game yet!
19:30 <Mort-> Its not too late:-)
19:31 <Mort-> And also yeah it comes to the debate. Does a magus need combat casting. Or am i a nub who can't position well.
19:31 * Mort- ponders
20:02 <BoomerET> Drop wis by 1 or 2? to increase cha?
20:07 <BoomerET> Ciao!
20:22 <BoomerET> I'll be back in a couple hours as soon as I get to work.
20:23 <BoomerET> or dex/con/str?
20:35 <Mort-> You can
21:10 <BoomerET> 13/13/13/13/16/13, jeesh
21:18 <mortswishytail> Going to bed too
21:21 <mortswishytail> Night all
22:05 <Mort-> Or drop some oddstats
22:06 <Mort-> Like your dex /int
22:06 <Mort-> Clerics don't have to be smart
22:06 <Mort-> I said drop 13 to 12
22:06 <Mort-> For int and dex
22:06 <Mort-> Try to keep your stats at even numbers
22:44 <BoomerET> 14/12/14/12/16/13?
23:17 <BoomerET> 14/12/13/12/16/13
23:56 <BoomerET> Gotta wrap it up and head home. Be back in a couple hours.
24:00 <Mort-> Will do
24:02 <Mort-> Np

49:52 <BoomerET> Howdy DarkDaemon 
54:36 <DarkDaemon> hey
54:37 <DarkDaemon> gtg
03:26 <BoomerET> On the character template, under weapons, what does TAB stand for?
07:19 <Avatar> total attack bonus
07:31 <BoomerET> Thanks
07:52 <BoomerET> My latest char sheet is on my other notebook, so I'll try and work on that today.
08:04 <BoomerET> Got everything filled out up to that point.
08:19 <Avatar> cool, upload it
11:58 <BoomerET> I can't, it's on my other notebook.
12:16 <BoomerET> Let me boot the thing up and pray my boss doesn't look behind him.
12:28 <Avatar> I'm going to bed soon
29:49 <MekkisScreen> BoomerET: I like 12/12/12/12/14/15
30:29 <BoomerET> It's now: 14/12/13/12/16/13
31:02 <BoomerET> Would the one you posted be a sorcerer, or what?
32:56 <Mort-> He is a summoner
33:17 <Mort-> I have 13 12 14 14 10 16
33:27 <Mort-> On stats before :p

41:22 <Avatar> pretty sure you've never used 12/12/12/12/14/15 mekkis
43:01 <Avatar> BoomerET: selective channelling is a core rulebook feat
43:10 <Avatar> and it's pretty much a must-have feat for any cleric
43:40 <Avatar> you want a cha of at least 14 so that it can be useful
44:18 <Avatar> your channel positive energy has a 30ft radius to heal people, and selective channelling lets you choose which bad guys don't get to be part of that healing
44:26 <Avatar> you can choose a number of bad guys based on your cha mod
46:22 <MekkisScreen> Avatar: Itzamna used it!
46:25 <Mort-> Yes
46:29 <MekkisScreen> uses it even
46:31 <Mort-> I'm not surprised
46:44 <Avatar> itzamna's a summoner who uses his eidolon for everything
46:51 <MekkisScreen> ummm no
47:00 <MekkisScreen> he's played scenarios without using the eidolon at all
47:12 <Avatar> ones where the stats don't matter
47:17 <MekkisScreen> half of wonders in the weave 1 was done without the eidolon
47:31 <Avatar> the non-combat parts
47:45 <Avatar> in a 6 person party
14:31 <BoomerET> Yup, I took Selective Channeling.
15:03 <BoomerET> Couldn't find it because my cha wasn't 13, so have redone a lot of things, still fleshing it out. Had to add some crossbow bolts.
16:00 <BoomerET> 14 for cha? I have 13
19:43 <Mort-> Lol
20:40 <Mort-> Anyway don't listen to this channel if they say i should be smacked on my nose
20:58 <Mort-> And always bring cookies for me!
21:32 <Hydrazine> Yeah. Mort likes cookies. Especially with radium.
21:46 <Mort-> Your mean :(
22:22 <BoomerET> There's be less terrorists in this world if there were more cookies.
23:07 * Mort- nods her head and agrees
23:20 <BoomerET> and ice cream
23:28 <Mort-> Cookies and cream.
23:40 <Mort-> Or mint with chocolate chip
24:10 <Mort-> I may be Asian but i don't live on green tea ice cream.
24:29 <Mort-> Or oolong tea.
25:58 N2H4 ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
28:05 <N2H4> I think I prefer Rodney Carrington's answer to terrorism.
28:38 <Avatar> you should avoid odd numbered stats since they don't really help your mods, except for con

29:01 Hydrazine has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
30:31 <BoomerET> Well, with 20 points, it seems impossible to not have 1 odd stat.
30:44 <Avatar> certainly not impossible
30:59 <BoomerET> I'm playing with the numbers, and I keep going over by 1
31:00 <Avatar> you can do it easily by just having 4 stats at 14 and 2 at 10
31:11 <BoomerET> Ahhh
31:32 <Avatar> I usually do that and then do some fine tuning based on what I want more or less of

48:26 <BoomerET> Just bought another 4 pdf's from Paizo. Trying to finish out the Pathfinder collection
48:41 <BoomerET> I'm hoping I'm at least halfway.
48:46 <BoomerET> But doubtful
48:58 <BoomerET> I don't have any of the seasons of PFS

04:00 <Nocte|Kazour> Hmm... What should I do?
05:10 <Avatar> roll up a character !!
05:51 <Nocte|Kazour> Hmm... Could do that.
06:06 <Nocte|Kazour> I'm going to roll which character I'm going  to do.
06:24 <Nocte|Kazour> A bard or a Dragon Bloodline Sorcerer.
06:36 <Nocte|Kazour> And it was !throw, right?
06:48 <Nocte|Kazour> !throw 1d6
06:48 <diebot> Nocte|Kazour, 1d6: [1d6=1] 1
06:56 <Nocte|Kazour> A bard it is.
07:16 <Nocte|Kazour> To Powergame or not to Powergame?
07:47 <N2H4> Howdy Nocte.
08:01 <Nocte|Kazour> Hmm...
08:26 <Nocte|Kazour> Too bad that the scores are not rolled randomly.
08:44 <N2H4> Random scores can be pretty good and bad.
09:00 <Nocte|Kazour> But I usually have pretty good luck.
09:09 <Nocte|Kazour> Ok what race?
09:10 <Avatar> I can appreciate rolling
09:34 <N2H4> I used to do alot of rolled stats.
09:57 <N2H4> What method of rolling?
10:33 <Nocte|Kazour> 4d6.
10:34 <Nocte|Kazour> Drop the lowest.
10:45 <Avatar> I used to allow either a point buy or rolling 4d6 drop lowest up to two times, take latest rolls
10:57 <Nocte|Kazour> Sometimes it would be fun to try out straight 3d6.
11:02 <Nocte|Kazour> Would make for a classic game.
11:08 <Nocte|Kazour> Ok...
11:14 <Nocte|Kazour> I'm going to roll for a random race.
11:20 <Avatar> you can uh
11:26 <Avatar> !rnd human half-elf gnome
11:30 <Avatar> !rng human half-elf gnome
11:30 <diebot> Avatar, gnome
11:34 <Avatar> etc
11:36 <Nocte|Kazour> I'm excluding Half-Orcs.
11:39 <N2H4> I've done alot of 4d6 drop low type stuff, and I'll tell you that the average power of PCs ends up alot higher than PFS point buy.
11:50 <BoomerET> That good huh?
12:30 <Avatar> is there usually more than one set of rolls allowed
13:12 <Nocte|Kazour> !rng Human Elf Gnome Halfling Dwarf Half-Elf
13:13 <diebot> Nocte|Kazour, Gnome
13:19 <Nocte|Kazour> Nope.
13:22 <Nocte|Kazour> !rng Human Elf Gnome Halfling Dwarf Half-Elf
13:23 <diebot> Nocte|Kazour, Dwarf
13:27 <Nocte|Kazour> Ok.
13:28 <Nocte|Kazour> Dwarf Bard.
13:33 <Nocte|Kazour> This would be fun.
13:58 <Nocte|Kazour> Try to imagine that.
14:17 <N2H4> Not what I'm used to, Avatar.
14:27 <N2H4> 4d6 drop lowest. 6 times.
14:48 <Nocte|Kazour> I do that usually.
14:54 <Nocte|Kazour> I dislike Point Buy.
14:55 <Avatar> even the fact that it's drop lowest will mean the odds are in your favour
15:07 <Nocte|Kazour> Because I really can't plan my character well.
15:43 <Nocte|Kazour> BTW. Is there a blank character sheet?
15:50 <N2H4> You end up with much stronger characters than your used to in PFS, Avatar.
16:17 <N2H4> But I don't think it really means alot overall. Adjust the content to fit.
19:39 <Nocte|Kazour> Hmm... Too bad its hard to find a GM who would do a solo game of Pathfinder.
20:27 <Nocte|Kazour> And isn't how strong your character determined how well you roleplay?
20:35 <Nocte|Kazour> by*
22:16 <Nocte|Kazour> Wait.
22:23 <Nocte|Kazour> A bot is a half-op?
22:35 <Nocte|Kazour> O.o
24:32 <Avatar> yeah go to the downloads section
25:14 <Avatar> pick 4 stats to put at 14 and keep the other two at 10
25:21 <Avatar> if you can't decide
27:24 <Nocte|Kazour> So these inventory stuff comes free or something?
27:38 <Avatar> only your outfit is free
27:45 <Avatar> the rest you have to pay for if you want it
27:58 <Avatar> it's there because just about everyone would want it
28:03 <Avatar> but you're not obliged 
28:13 <Nocte|Kazour> Why are there no rations?
28:26 <Avatar> some people prefer taverns
28:30 <Avatar> I don't know, add them
28:38 <Mort-> Go buy your own
28:48 <Nocte|Kazour> Well... If you need to travel for like... four days, you need food.
28:57 <Avatar> survival lets you find food
29:12 <Nocte|Kazour> Meh. I prefer rations.
30:46 <Nocte|Kazour> Lol, there's cane sword?
31:29 <Nocte|Kazour> Just looking at stuff what new Advanced has.
31:45 <Mort-> If i take a trip out of town my characters will bring food
31:49 <Nocte|Kazour> And, uh.
31:57 <Nocte|Kazour> What's my starting gold?
31:59 <Mort-> Otherwise no
33:08 <Mort-> 150 gp
34:19 <Nocte|Kazour> So, I get to select which kind of dagger I want or is it piercing and slashing?
36:12 <Avatar> it's both
36:22 <Avatar> do you have the guide to organised play
36:28 <Nocte|Kazour> Yeh.
37:28 <Nocte|Kazour> What was the name of the book again?
37:39 <Nocte|Kazour> pdf*
40:33 <Avatar> go here:
40:36 <Avatar> http://www.pfrpg.com.au/newbie_guide.htm
40:39 <Avatar> and get everything on that page
40:54 <Avatar> the pathfinder society guide to organised play is the one you need
41:15 <Nocte|Kazour> Gotta download the guide again for some reason.
41:16 <Nocte|Kazour> >.>
42:43 <Mort-> You can choose to stab or slash with your dagger i think
42:48 <Mort-> On point of attack
43:02 <Nocte|Kazour> Ok.
43:07 <Mort-> If the weapon descriptior for damage is p or s
43:25 <Mort-> If its p only means you can only deal piercing damage with it
43:55 <Nocte|Kazour> TAB is what?
44:32 Mekk ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
44:45 <Mekk> !throw 4d5
44:45 <diebot> Mekk, 4d5: [4d5=2,5,3,5] 15
45:05 <Nocte|Kazour> Why 5? o.o
45:10 Mekk has quit (Quit: I'm done using IRC with a telnet client)
45:11 <Mort-> Total attack bonus
45:28 <Nocte|Kazour> Total Attack Bonus for a dagger is?
46:35 <Nocte|Kazour> Oh right.
46:37 <Nocte|Kazour> Its that!
46:40 * Nocte|Kazour facepalms.
48:37 <Mort-> Strength bonus or dex bonus. With your own bab. And whatever feat you may have.
49:15 <Mort-> It changes as per situation like if you have flanking buddy
49:20 <Nocte|Kazour> Ok.
49:32 <Mort-> Hitting from higher ground. Morale bonus. Hitting from invisibility
50:05 <Mort-> But generally you apply strength bonus and base attack bonus
50:23 <Nocte|Kazour> So what places should I spent my points on?
50:30 <Mort-> Dex bonus only if you have weapon finesse
50:49 <Mort-> depending on what kind of bard you want to be
50:55 <Mort-> Please read up on your class
51:20 <Mort-> I have never rolled  up a bard so i have no clue on how you would want to play one
51:50 <Nocte|Kazour> I kind of want to play a bard who plays tricks on his enemies and that sort of stuff.
52:36 <Mort-> High cha
52:48 <Mort-> For spells
53:00 <Mort-> You can also play tripping tricks or disarm tricks
53:27 <Ballig> it's too early
53:30 <Mort-> Probably would suggest high dex and agile maneuvers for that
53:45 <Nocte|Kazour> So 14 dex 
53:46 <Mort-> Then play dirty tricks while wearing black leather using a whip :p
53:50 <Nocte|Kazour> 14 cha.
53:55 <Nocte|Kazour> And what other two?
54:07 <Mort-> 16 cha i recommend
54:12 <Nocte|Kazour> Ok.
54:28 <Mort-> Oh and worship callistra ^^
54:44 <Nocte|Kazour> Callistra?
54:45 <Mort-> Female. Black leather. And whip. Nice picture ^^
54:53 <Mort-> Oh yes ^^
55:06 <Nocte|Kazour> Dude, I'm playing a dwarf bard.
55:13 <Nocte|Kazour> >.>
55:26 <Mort-> Damn
55:34 <Mort-> Human would be cuter ^^
55:43 <Brunius> 6:55am
55:46 <Nocte|Kazour> Dwarf because it would be fun.
55:53 <Nocte|Kazour> Nobody would expect a dwarf to be a bard.
56:19 <Mort-> If i were doing dwarf bard id focus less on dirty tricks
56:32 <Nocte|Kazour> Well... What should I do then?
56:42 <Mort-> And just dwarven waraxe everyone out of the way :p
56:43 * Nocte|Kazour inspires courage.
56:52 <Mort-> But hey I'm kind of a brute. 
56:55 <Nocte|Kazour> Bards can't wield martial weapons.
56:58 <Mort-> Don't mind me
57:16 <Mort-> If you are dwarf i think its a racial profecgency
57:24 <Mort-> Don't quote me on this though
57:29 <N2H4> I believe so.
57:32 <Mort-> Haven't rolled a dwarf yet
57:39 <Mort-> I hate smallies.
57:46 <Nocte|Kazour> He's not small.
57:50 <Nocte|Kazour> He's Medium.
57:56 <Mort-> Shorties.
58:02 <Nocte|Kazour> Unlike Halflings.
58:04 <N2H4> yeah, dwarves are medium Mort.
58:06 <Nocte|Kazour> Midgets.
58:11 <Mort-> Whatever. I can't stand 20 move speed
58:28 <N2H4> Works fine for me.
58:43 <Nocte|Kazour> I need to torture someone to make them run a solo game for me... >.>
58:57 <Mort-> I don't think you can
59:13 <Mort-> I tried playing zork last night
59:23 <Mort-> All i got was a headache
59:25 <Mort-> :(
59:34 <Mort-> Not many brains here :(
59:42 * Nocte|Kazour waits for a target.
59:47 <Avatar> you don't choose which with a stabbing and piercing weapon
59:52 <Avatar> your weapon automatically does both
59:53 <Nocte|Kazour> Did you stab yourself Mort?
00:07 <Nocte|Kazour> That's the only way out of the game.
00:13 <BoomerET> Ballig, what environ did you use to create CA?
00:39 <Ballig> Qt
01:21 <Mort-> The desbription
01:25 <Mort-> says p or s
01:31 <BoomerET> Did you use the Nokia Qt Designer?
01:39 <BoomerET> (Is there anything else?)
01:41 <Mort-> As opposed to morningstar - b and 7
01:48 <Mort-> B and p
01:53 <BoomerET> Did you write it in Python?
01:55 <Ballig> I think you can use other tools, but I used the Qt creator
01:58 <BoomerET> Is this too many questions?
02:00 <Mort-> I believe there should be a distinctions
02:03 <Ballig> I wrote the original CA in Python, but version 2 is a remake
02:31 <BoomerET> I used to be a developer, before I realized there was more money in networking.
03:24 <BoomerET> and where the hell do I get my Raspberry Pi? Jeesh
04:27 <BoomerET> Oh cool, $350 Buy It Now on eBay. Brand new they're $35, jeesh.
04:48 <Ballig> yeah but don't you want a BRAND NEW iphone (box) for $200?
04:53 <Ballig> I mean, it's a brand new IPHONE (box)
04:56 <Mort-> So yes. A human female bard in black leather using a whip
05:04 <Mort-> Should be interesting
05:08 <Nocte|Kazour> ...
05:11 <Nocte|Kazour> Perv.
05:16 <Mort-> If you could go thiefling
05:19 <Mort-> Even more fun
05:24 <Nocte|Kazour> Someone has watched too much porn.
05:39 <BoomerET> Hmm, not an Apple fanboy. Android fanboy.
05:51 <Nocte|Kazour> I wonder if your browsing history has a marathon's worth of porn streaming.
05:57 <Ballig> yeah but it's a brand new iphone (box)!
06:44 <BoomerET> A new box?????
07:00 <BoomerET> Damn, now that's a great deal.
07:18 <Ballig> for only $200!
07:20 <Ballig> and it's unlockeD!
07:48 <BoomerET> You doing the remake in Python?
07:56 <Ballig> no the remake was the Qt version
08:03 <Mort-> Actually it just shows to speak that something is wrong with me
08:17 <Mort-> Usually I'm as lawful good as they come
09:04 <BoomerET> I thought Qt was just a framework?
09:05 <Nocte|Kazour> Heh.
09:14 <Nocte|Kazour> Wish I got my book already.
09:19 <Nocte|Kazour> This waiting is killing me.
09:23 <Nocte|Kazour> >.>
09:53 <Mort-> Basically your spells will be on your cha
09:59 <Ballig> yeah, I didn't use Qt Python
10:02 <Ballig> I used Qt Visual C++
10:08 <BoomerET> Ahh, ok.
10:21 <Mort-> So my dear wizard. Who happens to be a trickster of a kind as well.
10:35 <Mort-> Pumps her int so she can play tricks on people
10:38 <BoomerET> Never really cared for C++, I grew up on C. OOP makes my brain go numb. Wrappers aren't my friend.
10:53 <Nocte|Kazour> *headwalls hard*
11:08 <Mort-> Besides spell tricks. You could get combat maneuver tricks as well
11:11 <BoomerET> I used to write firmware, and had to get down & dirty to eek out everything we possibly could.
11:18 <Nocte|Kazour> Yeh.
11:23 <Mort-> Aka dirty trick. Like kick him in the balls
11:30 <Nocte|Kazour> O.o
11:35 <Nocte|Kazour> That's a special move?
11:40 <Mort-> Hey. It inflicts sickened
11:40 <Nocte|Kazour> I thought everyone knows how to do it.
12:07 <BoomerET> Boss & Marketing Team: Dave, We just promised client that we could add XX to the modem. How long before you can have it done?
12:15 <Mort-> If i were doing dirty trick. Id say i want to kick him in the balls to give sickened condition
12:30 <Ballig> ha
12:30 <BoomerET> Dave: 2 years when Conexant comes out with their new chipset.
13:15 <Mort-> Though actually. Blind is a better condition to inflict as opposed to sickened
13:27 <BoomerET> I used to write firmware for DSL modems (and further back, drivers for HP jukeboxes)
14:02 <Mort-> Probably stab my knuckles into his eyes to blind him
14:05 <BoomerET> Now I sit in a chair, and if I feel froggy, pump out a couple lines of Ruby each day.
14:08 <Nocte|Kazour> Btw. "You are going to backstab him with a ballista?" Best line ever spoken in movie history.
14:24 <Ballig> did you not sit in a chair while you wrote firmware
14:24 <Mort-> Excuse me. I'm feeling hyde today
14:38 * Mort- grows a pair of horns
14:59 <BoomerET> Yup, and had an office where the entire back wall was 1st floor windows looking at a parking lot.
15:07 * Mort- tail loses its fur and becomes pointed
15:19 <BoomerET> Now I sit in an open area, and see models and designers all day long.
15:30 <Nocte|Kazour> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s4ZeTAfYoY4 <- that is the part of the movie.
15:37 <Nocte|Kazour> Just watch.
15:50 <BoomerET> No more working in sausage factories for me!
16:14 <Ballig> yeah that chlorine smell would get to me
16:40 <Mort-> Can't
16:47 <Nocte|Kazour> Why?
16:51 <Mort-> At work
16:52 <Mort-> No you tube
17:50 <Nocte|Kazour> Why?
18:26 <Mort-> Don't be silly
18:38 <Mort-> Watching you tube while at work?
18:51 <Mort-> Everyone's going to see it
18:57 <Mort-> Anyway your bard
19:17 <Nocte|Kazour> So?
19:18 <Mort-> If you want to perform combat maneuver tricks
19:24 <Nocte|Kazour> Nothing risky. :p
19:30 <Mort-> You need either high str or dex.
19:33 <Nocte|Kazour> @ the video.
19:51 <Nocte|Kazour> Should I get better con?
19:55 <BoomerET> Where do I find Total Attack Bonus for a weapon I'm carrying?
20:02 <Mort-> If you gotake dex routeyou need agile maneuvers
20:18 <BoomerET> s/Where/How/g
20:22 <Mort-> I recommend 12 cons for everyone minimum
20:33 <Mort-> If you are going into melee. Make it 14
20:44 <Ballig> it'd be equal to your Base Attack Bonus + modifier (strength for melee, dexterity for ranged) and then any bonuses you might have with that specific weapon or weapon type
20:50 <Nocte|Kazour> Doesn't dwarves have +2 CON?
20:55 <Ballig> so if you have weapon focus in that kind of weapon, you'd add that. if it was a masterwork weapon, you'd add the masterwork bonus in there
20:57 <Ballig> etc
20:57 <Mort-> Dwarf is kind of suboptimal for bard
21:07 <Mort-> Yes after racial modifiers
21:20 <Nocte|Kazour> That means I will have 14 if I take 12.
21:27 <Mort-> Because of the -2 cha on racial
21:36 <Nocte|Kazour> Meh.
21:41 <Nocte|Kazour> It only drops it to 14.
21:50 <Mort-> I recommend since as bard you don't have heavy armor
22:05 <Mort-> You don't want to get too happy meleeing
22:15 <Mort-> Again some wouldnt be fked
22:24 <Nocte|Kazour> So I should take strength penalty to get more points or?
22:39 <Nocte|Kazour> Not gonna plan on meleeing.
23:03 <Avatar> Nocte|Kazour: good movie
23:04 <Mort-> Whatever. I'm not a bard.
23:24 <Nocte|Kazour> I know right Avatar?
23:31 <Avatar> have you seen the full thing 
23:33 <Avatar> and the sequel
23:35 <Nocte|Kazour> Seen Dorkness Rising?
23:37 <BoomerET> Ok, so on the example template, I see +10/+5 for TAB. +10 is melee and +5 is ranged?
23:39 <Avatar> YEP
23:39 <Nocte|Kazour> Oh right.
23:42 <Mort-> Mind you. You take strength penalty. I'm not carrying your gear.
23:45 <Nocte|Kazour> I've seen them.
23:48 <Nocte|Kazour> Fun stuff.
23:50 <BoomerET> (On the morningstar)
23:56 <Mort-> You can ask hydra to. I wouldn't
23:57 pizzapug ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
24:00 <Ballig> nah. that would be to show you how it works when you have iterative attacks
24:12 <Ballig> once your base attack bonus is at +6 or higher, you get another attack
24:17 <BoomerET> Ahhhh, ok.
24:25 <Ballig> so a base attack bonus of +6 is written as +6/+1 because the second attack is always 5 less
24:30 <Nocte|Kazour> I mean, who brings over 10 character sheets to a game?
24:44 <BoomerET> Even when I played 2e, I never really knew the rules, jeesh. Don't know what makes me think I can now.
24:48 <Nocte|Kazour> A guy who knows he's going to die a lot.
25:11 <BoomerET> Excellent, great explanation, thanks.
25:26 * Mort- shrugs
25:37 <Mort-> I think I'm out of ideas for characters
25:39 <Mort-> For now
25:47 <Nocte|Kazour> Play a paladin.
25:48 <Nocte|Kazour> :p
25:49 <Mort-> I just want to level  them up
25:51 <Mort-> No
25:54 <Nocte|Kazour> What?
25:56 <Mort-> No pallies.
26:02 <Nocte|Kazour> You got something against Paladins?
26:07 <Mort-> They are trouble magnets
26:22 <Nocte|Kazour> Nah.
26:27 <Mort-> Please. I spend the last half h trying to hint you about s and m
26:28 <Nocte|Kazour> If you play them right.
26:41 <Mort-> And you're telling me to roll a pally? :p
26:41 <Nocte|Kazour>  I mean.
26:47 <Nocte|Kazour> Just play them as GOOD.
26:51 <Nocte|Kazour> Not LAWFUL STUPID.
26:56 <Mort-> Nice judge of character you are ^^
26:57 <Nocte|Kazour> So it will work.
27:07 <Mort-> If i went pally i would fall
27:09 <Nocte|Kazour> They are more about good than law.
27:27 <Nocte|Kazour> Ever thought that way?
28:01 <Mort-> Why do you need a pally.
28:22 <Mort-> So you can push him in front to keep monsters off you
28:29 <Avatar> mort what if you played a wizard who was lawful good
28:36 <Mort-> And disarm the traps by setting them off
28:44 <Mort-> By charging to peoples rescue
28:53 <Mort-> Mort is neutral good thank god
29:02 <Mort-> And most of my characters are neutral
29:06 <Mort-> Or cn
29:23 <Mort-> Praise be on no alignment headaches
30:59 <Nocte|Kazour> Mort... Somehow I can't answer to your PM.
31:09 <Nocte|Kazour> Not registered or something.
31:27 <Nocte|Kazour> So anyways, I have pretty much, no life.
31:43 <Nocte|Kazour> Only occasional Friday Night Magics on Fridays.
32:10 * Nocte|Kazour yawns.
32:35 <Nocte|Kazour> How do I register my nick name?
33:26 <Avatar> your username or your character name?
33:47 <Mort-> Its ok
33:49 <Avatar> give me your character name and I'lla dd it
34:05 <Nocte|Kazour> Username on IRC.
34:35 <Nocte|Kazour> Uh...
34:43 <Mort-> Character name
34:51 <Nocte|Kazour> So /Register Password Email ?
34:52 <Mort-> Do not name your character after yourself
34:58 <Mort-> Like i did
35:13 <Mort-> Can't remember how to register now
37:04 <Mort-> Try a /msg nickserv register
37:31 <Nocte|Kazour> Does this show to you all?
37:33 <Mort-> Anyway. I'm in the mood for gnome punting now
37:41 <Mort-> No
38:50 <Mort-> Follow the prompts they give you
39:05 <Nocte|Kazour> They? Who are they?
40:13 <Mort-> Nickserv
40:21 <Nocte|Kazour> Oh.
40:22 <Nocte|Kazour> K.
40:26 <Nocte|Kazour> Got registered now.
40:37 <Nocte|Kazour> Ok. It works now.
41:58 <Hydrazine> ha.
42:22 <Hydrazine> We're pretty good on the rules. Mostly. Feel free to ask if you get anything else.
42:36 <Hydrazine> Yeah. 10/5 TAB means you can swing twice in a full attack.
53:14 <Avatar> oh on IRC
57:00 <Nocte|Kazour> ...
57:02 <Nocte|Kazour> Hm.
57:08 <Nocte|Kazour> I need to find an easy way to map.
57:57 <Mort-> Map what
58:11 <Nocte|Kazour> Fantasy world maps.
58:16 <Nocte|Kazour> For D&D and other stuff.
58:35 <Avatar> use CA
58:45 <Nocte|Kazour> CA?
58:59 <Mort-> Combat assistant
59:38 <Nocte|Kazour> Does it do world maps?
00:01 <Mort-> If you want it to
00:30 <Nocte|Kazour> Oh. Android app?
00:39 <Mort-> No
01:10 <Nocte|Kazour> Care to link?
01:17 <Nocte|Kazour> As usual. I fail at googling.
01:19 <Nocte|Kazour> Seriously.
01:39 * Mort- facepalms
01:43 <Avatar> it's on that page I linked before
01:50 <Mort-> I'm on a cell and i Google better then you,g
01:52 <Mort-> ?
02:14 <Avatar> [16:39] <Avatar> go here:
02:15 <Avatar> [16:39] <Avatar> http://www.pfrpg.com.au/newbie_guide.htm
02:15 <Avatar> [16:39] <Avatar> and get everything on that page
02:50 <Avatar> you'll want the beta version of CA
03:39 <Nocte|Kazour> Which one's the beta?
04:59 <Nocte|Kazour> CA v2 (build 772) <- this
05:00 <Nocte|Kazour> ?
12:08 <Avatar> yeah
12:26 <Avatar> er
12:26 <Avatar> no
12:28 <Avatar> 2.1
12:37 <Nocte|Kazour> Try to decide. Lol.
12:48 <BoomerET> I'm down to my skills!!! Another couple days and I might have this sheet filled in!
12:52 <Avatar> sorry, I could've sworn it was a beta before
27:08 <N2H4> DEMACIA!
27:15 N2H4 is now known as Hydrazine
27:42 <Nocte|Kazour> You know what I Found guys?
27:52 <Nocte|Kazour> AKS Hexmapper!
27:55 <Nocte|Kazour> WOOT!
29:03 <Nocte|Kazour> You guys know what it is right?
29:06 <Hydrazine> Who uses hex maps?
29:09 <Nocte|Kazour> I do.
29:14 <Nocte|Kazour> They look so cool.
30:42 <Brunius> I plan to
31:36 <Nocte|Kazour> Anyone want the link?
54:23 <Mort-> Bru can you play on weekday nights?
54:43 <Mort-> Nocte here doesn't mind doing it on weekday nights
54:49 <Mort-> Well for me not tonight
00:55 <Mekkis> Mort-, will you take the mount evolution?
01:58 <Nocte|Kazour> Mekkis, do you use Hexmaps?
02:17 <Mekkis> Nocte|Kazour, I haven't, except for large-scale mapping
02:21 rzv has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
02:43 <Nocte|Kazour> Do you know the AKS Hexmapper?
02:48 <Mekkis> no
02:57 <Mekkis> I just use inkscape or autocad
02:59 <Nocte|Kazour> Its pretty cool, makes old school maps.
03:12 rzvlptp has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
05:02 <Mekkis> http://nl.ti4200.info/~mekkis/kingdom.pdf Warning: may contain spoilers if you're playing in a kingmaker campaign, or plan to.
05:03 <Nocte|Kazour> http://t3.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQAtTjSwWUlEkvZAnF27tiRIO9Ay7DDZjWL5jNwCf2KNtItSCcpBv-M4R07xA this is the kind of map it makes.
05:18 <Mekkis> Mort-, if you trust you'll forget it after a month, go ahead :)
05:32 <Mekkis> my URLs are cleaner than yours
05:46 <Nocte|Kazour> Check the map.
05:50 <Nocte|Kazour> It looks pretty cool.
07:42 <Mekkis> not really
07:47 <Mekkis> doesn't let me see anything in it
08:11 <Nocte|Kazour> Oh.
08:20 <Nocte|Kazour> Well... You gotta wait till I do my map.
08:28 <Nocte|Kazour> So I can upload a good pic.
13:04 <Mort-> I may
13:07 <Mort-> Or may not
13:19 <Mort-> I think its not worth it
13:35 <Mort-> Mekkis. Because I'm not a combat trained mount
13:51 <Mort-> Anyone riding me needs 20 dc ride check
14:11 <Mort-> Anyone who has the ride skill to make that check
14:17 <Mort-> Probably has a mount of their own already
14:34 <Mort-> Mekkis. I shouldn't look
14:48 <Mekkis> why not?
15:04 <Mort-> My memory is weird in a way. Some things especially emotionally charged memories
15:11 <Mort-> I can never forget
15:52 <Mort-> Anyway about the mount bit
16:03 <Mort-> Make a 20 dc ride check lol
16:43 <Mort-> I even tried ways to give myself war training. But I'm not an animal so handle animal doesn't work ^^
17:51 <Mekkis> Mort-,   Mount (Ex): An eidolon is properly skilled and formed to serve as a combat-trained mount.
17:57 <Mort-> I think you are really lucky to have a regular group to game with
18:00 <Mort-> Oh really?
18:05 <Mort-> Bring it on :d
18:09 <Mort-> Just for kicks
18:19 <Mort-> That's going to be fun!
18:36 <Mort-> Sorry. Player likes that. Have to speak with character in question
19:09 <Mort-> Hm. Probably wouldn't like it too much
19:11 <Mekkis> Mort-, lucky?
19:17 <Mekkis> hell, it's something I built up!
19:33 <Mort-> Would you xanian like it if someone mounted him?
19:34 <Mort-> Lol
19:45 <Mort-> Its a tad undignified
19:49 <Mekkis> or is it?
19:55 <Mekkis> welll
19:58 <Mekkis> for a start
20:07 <Mort-> Unless i was going for the pally and the mount got mixed story
20:15 <Mekkis>  This evolution is only available to eidolons of the quadruped and serpentine base forms.
20:22 <Mekkis> so it's not happening to Xanian
20:25 <Mekkis> he's biped
23:58 <Mort-> Of course
24:07 <Mort-> I can take it if i want to
24:13 <Mort-> Do i want to?
24:22 <Mekkis> you wouldn't want someone who can negate hits on you?
24:30 <Mort-> I personally think getting mounted is a bit..
24:40 <Mort-> Why would anyone get mounted combat
24:44 <Mort-> Without a mount?
24:56 <Mort-> Besides id be more worried about my rider :p
25:00 <Mort-> Then myself
25:17 <Mort-> But oh man a charging jerus would be hilarious
25:25 <Mort-> Extremely
25:31 <Mort-> But i need to be large first
26:02 <Mort-> At the moment all i can do is carry small races
26:15 <Mort-> Which usually aren't fighters
27:08 <Mekkis> there's Grolschmir!
27:44 <Mekkis> Mort-, would Xyn turn up to a party fused?
28:26 <Mekkis> !play fortuneo
28:28 <ZorkBot> "Water?  Never touch the stuff!  Fish fuck in it."
28:30 <ZorkBot> 		-- W. C. Fields
28:32 <ZorkBot> The interpreter has ended the session.
28:33 <Mort-> Atm she goes everywhere fused
28:34 <Mort-> Actually
28:57 <Mort-> Her form isn't monsterous so to speak
29:11 <Mort-> A sphnix with hands!
29:20 <Mort-> Id say it looks exotic personally
29:35 <Mort-> Think egyptian legends
29:37 <Mekkis> so not good in a superstitious community!
30:43 <Mort-> I can appear in my usual form if i have to
31:03 <Mort-> I didn't totally dumpstat my physical stats
33:17 <Mort-> Not an issue
33:18 pizzapug has quit (Quit: )
33:40 <Mort-> But i should get something to appear in
33:55 <Mort-> Grolshmir
33:56 <Mort-> Btw
34:01 <Mort-> Has his own roc.
34:35 <Mort-> Why are you riding a sphinix when you have your own animal companion?
35:04 <Mort-> With enlarge person i could carry medium. Problem is enlarging is something only i can do
35:06 <Mort-> Wastes time
35:43 <Nocte|Kazour> http://i1188.photobucket.com/albums/z402/Nocte32/LandofCliche.jpg <- my map done on AKS Hexmap.
36:28 <Mort-> There is never enough time for enlarge person in combat
36:35 <Mort-> And no one can do it for me
39:03 <Mort-> Though what id really really want is more opportunities to play her
40:38 <Nocte|Kazour> ...
40:42 * Nocte|Kazour yawns.
41:06 * Nocte|Kazour uses sleep on Mort
42:01 * Mort- is an elf
42:07 * Mort- isn't affected
42:11 <Nocte|Kazour> Damnit.
42:30 * Nocte|Kazour tries to cast the spell on Mekkis
45:27 <Mort-> And level 8 is so far away
45:37 <Mort-> Actually level 9 for me due to dip
46:07 <Mort-> Mekkis most fights you never have time to pre buff do you?
52:25 paul_banks ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
53:21 <Nocte|Kazour> *is bored*
01:51 <Mort-> K I'm out
02:00 <Mort-> Might need to dc though
02:16 <Mort-> Cell is fked up if not linked to power source
05:17 <Mort-> Hm. How interesting. You said it was something you built up
05:17 <Mort-> That means you deserve it!
05:20 * Mort- hugs mekk
05:52 <Mort-> Great. It probably means i should start trying to convince my brother to pfs 
06:01 * Mort- sighs
06:22 <Mort-> Out of idle speculation what would he roll...
06:30 <Mort-> No clue. 
06:55 <Mort-> For all i know he might actually roll up a pally ^^
06:59 <Mort-> Guessing a cleric though
07:15 <Mort-> If he rolled a gs i would eat my hat
07:19 <Nocte|Kazour> Are you talking to yourself?
07:20 <Nocte|Kazour> O.o
07:23 <Nocte|Kazour> Weird.
07:26 <Mort-> I think he would not roll a class without spells
07:36 <Mort-> I'm talking about my brother
07:43 <Mort-> Musing out loud
08:08 <Nocte|Kazour> Hmm.
08:23 <Nocte|Kazour> And what does GS mean?
10:10 <Mort-> Gunslinger
10:25 <Nocte|Kazour> Ewww.
10:31 * Nocte|Kazour dislikes.
14:09 <Avatar> gunslinger is a sweet class I'll have you know
14:25 <Nocte|Kazour> I know but I just dislike guns in fantasy setting.
14:57 <Nocte|Kazour> And isn't Gunslinger advanced class?
15:37 <Avatar> how do you define an advanced class
15:51 <Avatar> it's not a core class
16:16 <Nocte|Kazour> Advanced as in the Advanced book.
16:54 <Nocte|Kazour> What was it called, Advanced Player's Guide=
16:56 <Nocte|Kazour> ?*
17:03 <Nocte|Kazour> That's what I mean with the Advanced.
17:18 <Nocte|Kazour> So isn't that a no in Pathfinder Society?
22:13 <Mort-> You can play a gunslinger in pfs
22:36 <Mort-> Avatar. Not saying anything about the class in question
22:43 <Mort-> But my brother like me likes options
22:50 <Nocte|Kazour> Do they allow stuff from APG?
22:50 <Mort-> And hates being without magic
22:56 <Mort-> Yes
23:12 <Mort-> I wouldn't be surprised if he rolls a wizard
23:12 <Nocte|Kazour> Then tell him to play sorcerer if he wants magic.
23:15 <Nocte|Kazour> >.>
23:18 <Mort-> No
23:25 <Mort-> He will go wizard over sorc
23:29 <Mort-> He likes versatility
23:31 <Nocte|Kazour> Because Sorcerers have pretty epic bloodlines.
23:40 <Nocte|Kazour> Especially Dragon.
23:45 <Mort-> Having a limited spell list won't make him happy
23:54 <Mort-> He is a packrat like me
24:09 <Mort-> He wants to own spells just because they are shiny
24:30 <Nocte|Kazour> So are APG stuff allowed in Pathfinder Society?
24:36 <Mort-> Yes
25:15 <Mort-> But he is more cautious then i am by nature
25:54 <Mort-> So i wouldn't be surprised if he went for the biggest plate mail he could find. Then use a shield
26:03 <Nocte|Kazour> O.o
26:09 <Nocte|Kazour> Wizard with platemail?
26:11 <Nocte|Kazour> Lol.
26:15 <Mort-> He is unlikely to play glass cannons i think
26:33 <Mort-> More likely a sword and board pally
26:34 <Nocte|Kazour> You don't need wizard robes and hats to be a wizard.
26:53 <Hydrazine> I do.
27:10 <Mort-> Or take a cleric. Then heavy armor profeciency
27:10 <Mort-> Then hit everyone with mace
27:15 <Hydrazine> I also need real life clairvoyance to play a wizard.
27:24 <Nocte|Kazour> Why?
27:36 <Hydrazine> Because I have this thing about wizards and spell selection.
27:59 <Hydrazine> My spells per day never equal what would actually be useful for the situations at hand.
29:27 <Hydrazine> Like if I pack something ridiculous like.. create boat, we'd have all combat that day. next day, we'd get lost at sea.
29:42 <Mort-> Just put glitterdust
29:43 <Mort-> And hideous laughter
29:43 <Mort-> Matter settled
29:44 <Mort-> Keep scrolls of enlarge person on you
29:44 <Mort-> In  your spring loaded wrist sheathe
29:44 <Mort-> What you don't memorize you cover with scrolls
29:44 <Mort-> Anyway. Is interesting to speculate what my brother would roll up
29:44 <Mort-> That brother i keep talking about
30:16 <Mort-> Runes of magic. I played druid/mage. He played knight/priest
30:24 <Mort-> I tell you
30:31 <Nocte|Kazour> How old is he?
30:34 <Mort-> Glitterdust and hideous laughter
30:43 <Mort-> 4 years older then me
30:51 <Nocte|Kazour> And you are?
30:53 <Nocte|Kazour> -.-'
30:57 <Mort-> Create boat should be scrolled
30:59 <Mort-> 25
31:06 <Nocte|Kazour> O.o
31:07 <Nocte|Kazour> He's old.
31:26 <Mort-> I don't know how he would sound like on irc.
31:36 <Mort-> He is a lot more serious minded then me
32:01 <Mort-> I'm the giggly-havefun-mur
32:10 * Nocte|Kazour goes to lurk on other sites.
32:16 <Nocte|Kazour> >:|
32:19 <Mort-> He probably would appear only when a game was going to be run
32:32 <Brunius> Why are you going to lurk?
32:41 <Nocte|Kazour> Annoyed that I can't find solo game.
32:43 <Hydrazine> Lurk lurk lurk.
33:20 <Mort-> But i think he would find pfs too slow
33:33 <Mort-> He can't really commit for 6 h straight
33:54 * Nocte|Kazour needs a GM for a solo game badly.
34:05 <Brunius> Why a solo game?
34:27 <Nocte|Kazour> Dunno, can't seem to find a smaller group.
34:44 <Hydrazine> Why do you need a smaller group?
34:51 <Nocte|Kazour> To keep up with the posts.
34:59 <Brunius> Um
35:04 <Brunius> We're not play by post here
35:07 <Brunius> You know that, right?
35:13 <Nocte|Kazour> Play by voice or chat?
35:17 <Brunius> chat, usually
35:21 <Brunius> voice on the side
35:24 <Nocte|Kazour> Play by Post.
35:28 <Nocte|Kazour> I count it as that.
35:43 <Nocte|Kazour> Because you post to play.
35:45 <Nocte|Kazour> :p
35:47 <Nocte|Kazour> Simple.
36:04 <Nocte|Kazour> I got somekind of story thing that I would love to try out.
36:17 <Mort-> At least if you're playing d3 you can just leave midgame
36:19 <Mort-> I don't gm anything
36:19 <Mort-> So I'm the wrong person to ask
37:54 <Nocte|Kazour> Whoa.
38:11 <Nocte|Kazour> On this site there's amazingly 4.0e searches.
38:16 <Nocte|Kazour> I thought it sucked balls.
38:23 <Nocte|Kazour> Don't see why people enjoy it. >.>
39:13 <Hydrazine> Heh.
39:33 <Hydrazine> Some people like terrible books and movies and TV shows too.
39:37 <Hydrazine> Takes all kinds, man.
39:38 <Nocte|Kazour> Yeah.
39:41 <Nocte|Kazour> Like Twilight.
39:42 <Brunius> Take twilight
39:45 <Brunius> Ha
39:45 <Nocte|Kazour> HAH!
39:50 <Nocte|Kazour> Stop copying me.
39:59 <Nocte|Kazour> :p
40:13 <Nocte|Kazour> You seen the "Twilight Honest Trailer" vid?
40:19 <Brunius> Nope
40:35 <Nocte|Kazour> http://www.collegehumor.com/embed/6747942/honest-twilight-trailer here.
41:04 <Avatar> dude the way we play is not play by post at all
41:09 <Hydrazine> I think the part that kills me about twilight.
41:14 * Mort- likes twilight though
41:16 <Hydrazine> Is that the main character doesn't do anything,
41:22 <Nocte|Kazour> WHAT!?
41:27 <Nocte|Kazour> HOW DARE YOU LIKE TWILIGHT!?
41:28 * Nocte|Kazour rants
41:54 <Nocte|Kazour> Lol "Don't worry, its not pedophilia because he looks 17."
43:13 <Mort-> Oh dear
43:14 <Mort-> Doesn't she in the 3rd or 4th book?
43:14 <Mort-> Ah well I'm not such a twilight fan that id try to burn people at stake for disliking twilight
43:14 <Mort-> And the main character is human ffs.
43:33 <Nocte|Kazour> Mort, why do you like Twilight?
43:35 <Mort-> You don't expect a level 1 human commoner to do much in party when there  are lyancantrope fighters and vampire monks who are like level 10 do you?
43:37 <Nocte|Kazour> What's the reason?
43:53 <Mort-> I think its cool that love can transcend barriers
43:59 <Mort-> Racial ones
44:03 <Nocte|Kazour> Love based on looks?
44:05 <Nocte|Kazour> No thanks.
44:19 <Hydrazine> I think its cool that main characters can do absolutely nothing in books about them!
44:45 <Brunius> I like trains.
45:11 <Nocte|Kazour> And?
45:20 <Mort-> Well whatever
45:20 <Mort-> Its like you don't have to be stuck with your own race
45:20 <Mort-> Anyway
45:20 <Mort-> Phone running out of bat
45:20 <Mort-> May dc anytime
45:20 Mort- has quit (Quit: Bye)
45:29 <Hydrazine> ..huh.
45:33 <Nocte|Kazour> O.o
45:41 <Nocte|Kazour> The....
46:58 <Nocte|Kazour> Hmm.
47:17 <Nocte|Kazour> Might as well try to memorize some of the monsters... So I'm going to read the Bestiary.
48:27 <Avatar> um
48:29 <Avatar> shouldn't do that
48:43 <Avatar> anything you know about monsters should be gleaned from knowledge checks
48:57 <Nocte|Kazour> I mean.
48:58 <Avatar> if you know about it by reading the bestiary beforehand, you open yourself up to metagaming
49:04 <Nocte|Kazour> If I'm ever going to GM.
49:16 <Nocte|Kazour> So might as well.
49:20 <Avatar> wait until you come across a specific monster you have to deal with 
52:06 <Nocte|Kazour> Avatar, know anyone who might be able to run a solo game for me?
52:53 <Brunius> Nobody does solo games here
53:57 <Nocte|Kazour> I have this pretty fun idea that when I'm good to go as a GM have another GM and switch roles each week. With each week would be different character's story in the same land and at some point these characters would meet each other and have a duel of some sort.
59:00 <Avatar> the only time we've ever done solo games was for a single session
59:05 <Avatar> or for split parties
59:20 <Avatar> I've never seen them done anywhere else
59:59 <Avatar> PFS scenarios have faction missions where you usually split off from your team
01:07 <Hydrazine> I've done a solo session once in exalted. but that was special case. Had a big personal sidequest.
01:28 <Nocte|Kazour> Exalted?
01:34 <Nocte|Kazour> I have heard of that.
02:13 <Hydrazine> I'm fond of it. Miss it even.
02:25 <Hydrazine> Haven't played in ages.
02:30 <Nocte|Kazour> So what's the deal with Exalted?
02:35 <Nocte|Kazour> What kind of game is it?
03:49 <Hydrazine> So.. think of the general idea of D&D. Characters that're better than 'normal' people and go around doing stuff.
04:14 <Hydrazine> And then you mix in some kung fu movie type stuff, and alot of asian flavor.
04:27 <Nocte|Kazour> So Anime D&D?
04:27 <Hydrazine> And replace the whole dice system.
05:00 <Hydrazine> Sorta, but the entire ground rules for the system is completely different.
05:22 <Nocte|Kazour> What kind of system does it use?
05:26 <Nocte|Kazour> Complex or easy?
05:59 <Hydrazine> Familiar with d10 stuff?
06:06 <Nocte|Kazour> Nah.
06:23 <Hydrazine> If you've only really dealt with d20 it feels a bit alien at first, but overall I think its really pretty simple.
06:45 <Nocte|Kazour> K, btw seen the antique d20?
06:56 <Nocte|Kazour> Looks pretty funny.
07:45 <Nocte|Kazour> http://craphound.com/images/d4205385x.jpg this one.
08:09 <Hydrazine> So you roll d10 to get 7 or higher. Thats how you make DCs. So instead of flat modifiers, most of the system works to give you more dice to roll.
09:34 <Hydrazine> Never in exalted do you actually count the total on a dice roll. Just if its 7 or higher. So overall game play moves pretty fast.
10:09 <Nocte|Kazour> Sounds kind of easy.
10:44 <Nocte|Kazour> What's the chance of rolling 7 or more on d10?
11:23 <Hydrazine> About 40%?
11:41 <Hydrazine> To complicate a little, 1s, you subtract from your total, 10s you count twice.
11:49 <Mekkis> exactly 40%
12:03 <Hydrazine> So a roll of 10 7 6 4 1, is 2 successes.
12:50 <Mekkis> d10s shouldn't exist
12:54 <Mekkis> they are an insult
13:00 <Nocte|Kazour> Hey!
13:08 <Nocte|Kazour> They are used for d100
13:13 <Nocte|Kazour> So they are good.
13:26 <Mekkis> Nocte|Kazour, I have said that statement in a restaurant full of L5R players, I'll say it here
13:35 <Mekkis> and survived!
13:40 <Nocte|Kazour> L5R?
13:43 <Mekkis> they theoretically don't exist
13:53 <Mekkis> Legend of the Five Rings - a d10-based LARP
14:00 <Nocte|Kazour> LOL.
14:02 <Nocte|Kazour> LARP.
14:03 <Nocte|Kazour> HAH.
14:16 <Mekkis> don't piss off larpers
14:22 <Nocte|Kazour> A larp that uses dice?
14:24 <Nocte|Kazour> :D
14:35 <Mekkis> you can LARP exalted
14:46 <Nocte|Kazour> You can Larp Pathfinder.
14:47 <Nocte|Kazour> >.>
14:58 <Mekkis> not well
15:05 <Nocte|Kazour> Yeah, but you can.
15:08 <Mekkis> it's too rules-heavy, and tries to be balanced
15:32 <Nocte|Kazour> Too balanced is never good.
15:40 <Nocte|Kazour> See what happened in D&D 4.0?
15:45 <Mekkis> I know
16:09 <Mekkis> but you can't deny that Pathfinder tries to be balanced. It also tries to balance the vast diversity
16:30 <Nocte|Kazour> At least it doesn't ruin everything.
16:46 <Nocte|Kazour> And uses 3.5e OGL.
17:00 <Mekkis> but we're talking d10s here
17:09 <Mekkis> and how they theoretically can't exist
17:21 <Hydrazine> No what way do they not?
17:46 <Mekkis> Hydrazine, find me a regular decahedron, and I'll agree with you.
19:19 <Nocte|Kazour> Seriously, what's wrong with you and d10s?
19:29 <Mekkis> they theoretically can't exist!
19:30 <Hydrazine> hes dicist.
20:34 <Mekkis> can anyone help me set up UUCP on debian?
21:17 <Nocte|Kazour> Hmm.
21:46 <Nocte|Kazour> I can only read some books for 10 pages a day...
21:48 <Nocte|Kazour> Sucks.
22:11 <Nocte|Kazour> I need to make my reading speed faster!
22:50 <Hydrazine> I think your problem with the d10 is rather like Mort's problem with gnomes.
23:02 <Mekkis> Hydrazine, how so
23:06 <Avatar> baseless :P
23:11 <Mekkis> mine is based on facts!
23:21 <Mekkis> Mort's is based on heresy, and popular culture
23:28 <Nocte|Kazour> And where can these facts be found?
23:40 <Hydrazine> the fact that its not regular in no way interferes with its properties as a dice.
23:55 <Mekkis> ummm... a dice is a regular polyhedron.
26:14 <Mekkis> Why is it replacing sendmail with postfix?
27:38 <Hydrazine> But a d10 is a die. Which I think illustrates that not all dice are regular polyhedrons.
28:19 <Mekkis> no. it just illustrates that market forces can attempt to change the definition of a term
28:35 <Mekkis> I REFUSE TO BE MANIPULATED BY SUCH THINGS!
36:09 * Nocte|Kazour is bored.
36:15 * Nocte|Kazour goes to lurk.
36:25 <Mekkis> read rgfd
36:47 <Nocte|Kazour> rgfd?
36:59 <Mekkis> rec.games.frp.dnd
37:33 <Nocte|Kazour> Link?
37:43 <Mekkis> news://rec.games.frp.dnd
42:01 <Mekkis> hmmm
42:17 <Mekkis> how can I absorb the neighbouring kingdom without starting a war?
42:18 * Nocte|Kazour sighs.
42:54 <Nocte|Kazour> Easily beating them before a war starts.
43:24 <Mekkis> it's a bit hard for an adventuring party to defeat another kingdom
43:25 <Mekkis> hmmm
43:34 <Mekkis> perhaps challenge the leader to single-combat
45:01 <Mekkis> how much diplomacy would it take?
45:02 <Nocte|Kazour> Just sneak attack the king with a ballista.
45:41 <Nocte|Kazour> What setting are you playing in?
45:48 <Mekkis> Golarion
45:52 <Nocte|Kazour> Oh.
45:53 <Nocte|Kazour> Hmm.
46:12 <Mekkis> I'm playing a paladin....
46:19 <Nocte|Kazour> Lure the king out somehow?
46:26 <Nocte|Kazour> And kill him.
46:37 <Mekkis> how would that help?
46:38 <Nocte|Kazour> Nah, too bad you are a paladin.
46:51 <Nocte|Kazour> Easier to conquer while the kingdom is in chaos.
47:00 <Nocte|Kazour> Dead king = chaos.
47:46 <Mekkis> so the rest of the party can assassinate the other king
48:06 <Mekkis> and then I can come in promising peace, stability, glory and that sort of thing?
48:15 <Nocte|Kazour> Maybe.
48:20 <Nocte|Kazour> What kind of king is your target?
48:31 <Nocte|Kazour> Good or evil?
48:47 <Nocte|Kazour> And is there slaves in Golarion?
48:52 <Nocte|Kazour> Lead a slave rebellion.
48:53 <Nocte|Kazour> :P
49:12 <Mekkis> not sure
49:18 <Mekkis> and in some parts, yes
50:38 <Mekkis> Golarion is a large place
50:51 <Mekkis> http://cdn.obsidianportal.com/map_images/91329/Golarion_Map.jpg
51:29 <Mekkis> for reference, my kingdom's just south of Brevoy
59:46 <Nocte|Kazour> Too bad that I can't ever own the setting stuff for Pathfinder.
59:52 <Nocte|Kazour> Too pricy.
01:15 <Mekkis> ever is a long time
01:26 <Nocte|Kazour> I mean... 40£ for setting book?
01:33 <Nocte|Kazour> I would rather write up a setting.
01:44 <Nocte|Kazour> Or just wing it.
01:48 <Mekkis> you pay in pounds?
01:52 <Mekkis> not kronor?
01:54 <Nocte|Kazour> Amazon.
02:03 <Nocte|Kazour> We use euros.
02:13 <Mekkis> I've been buying off Paizo
02:23 <Mekkis> they charge USD...
02:34 <Mekkis> (still cheaper than in a shop over here)
02:47 <Nocte|Kazour> Really?
02:56 <Mekkis> yeah
03:04 <Nocte|Kazour> I got these books cheaper from Amazon than the local gaming store.
03:15 <Mekkis> shops charge ~$AU80 for a core rulebook
03:21 <Nocte|Kazour> O.o?
03:23 <Mekkis> other than that, there's always google: which has a lot of the setting information on it
03:35 <Nocte|Kazour> I usually like to hold the real copy.
03:40 <Nocte|Kazour> And read.
03:45 <Nocte|Kazour> So I can memorize better.
03:53 <Mekkis> (that being said, over the last month, the AUD dropped from USD1.08 to 0.98)
04:03 <Nocte|Kazour> O.o
04:19 <Mekkis> I blame the greeks
04:48 <Nocte|Kazour> Anyways, I got Bestiary and Game Mastery from Book Depositary or some what's it called. They sold both for under 20£
05:13 <Mekkis> I've never used the game mastery guide
05:16 <Mekkis> pity, really
05:20 <Brunius> Is it really at 0.98 now Mekkis?
05:48 <Mekkis> it dropped below .99 a few days ago
05:56 <Mekkis> it's back at .994 now
06:06 <Brunius> Man
06:10 <Mekkis> I know
06:16 <Mekkis> I had to pay my server bills!
06:19 <Mekkis> in USD!
06:23 <Brunius> ha
07:29 <Mekkis> http://www.xe.com/currencycharts/?from=AUD&to=USD&view=1M
07:56 <Brunius> :(
07:58 <Nocte|Kazour> And I'm still waiting for my 28£ Core Rulebook. >.>
08:19 <Mekkis> other books I'd recommend are APG and UM
08:24 <Mekkis> Ultimate Combat not so much
08:51 <Mekkis> one day Brunius will get a job and buy an APG :)
12:33 * Nocte|Kazour pokes Mekkis
13:01 * Mekkis prods Nocte|Kazour 
13:39 <Mekkis> or you do what I do, and buy the books, then pirate the PDFs :S
13:53 <Avatar> bit of a nasty dig at brunius
14:22 <Mekkis> it wasn't intended
18:20 <Brunius> I don't see that as a dig
18:42 <Mekkis> A dig would be aiming it at some other people in this channel
18:50 paul_banks is now known as pugbutt
19:24 <Mekkis> is it bad that I've memorised all three IPv6 addresses of my laptop?
20:04 <Brunius> Not really.
21:10 Nocte|Kazour has quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
