00:52:17 <Mekkis> hmmm
00:52:24 <Mekkis> why aren't there pikes in Pathfinder?
01:11:58 <Steven> herro
01:12:45 <MekkisScreen> > when running a module now, how do you deal with character death
01:13:38 <Steven> depends on the setting
01:14:35 <Steven> if they are in the middle of the woods two weeks from anyone then chances are they cant get a rez
01:14:45 <Steven> however if theres a small town with a temple
01:14:59 <MekkisScreen> I mean wrt chronicle sheets
01:15:08 <MekkisScreen> they've changed the rules iirc
01:16:08 <Steven> the rules for irc are the same as the rules for table play
01:16:26 <MekkisScreen> iirc = if I recall correctly
01:17:12 <Steven> ah yeah, for every death a player has while playing a premade you reduce the exp and prestige gained by 1
01:17:33 <MekkisScreen> what I mean is that before, if you died, the dead condition didn't carry over and you continues play as if nothing happened, but you lost cash xp and prestige
01:17:59 <MekkisScreen> do you now have to pay for the raise in addition to losing cash,xp and pa?
01:18:01 <Steven> all conditions gained/resolved in a module while playing a normal character is applied as normal
01:18:33 <MekkisScreen> last time I played a module was before all these rules changes came out
01:18:48 <Steven> no, if you are killed and then raised in a scenario, there is no negative effect unless you miss out on several combats
01:18:53 <Steven> ill look over the rules again to make sure
01:19:08 <Steven> but i believe the only impact is the fact you cant get more then one restoration in a week
01:19:24 <MekkisScreen> so you don't need to pay?
01:19:39 <Steven> you still need to pay for the raise dead as per normal
01:19:45 <MekkisScreen> or you don't need to worry about losing prestige/loot?
01:22:58 <MekkisScreen> is there a beast called the Chaos Bird, or am I misremembering something
01:24:01 <Steven> If a character dies and is brought back to life, the GM must determine the rewards for that character. The minimum possible reward is 0 GP, 1 XP and 1 PP on the normal advancement track or 0 GP 1/2 XP, and 1/2 Prestige Point on the slow advancement track. If a character participates in more than 2/3 of the module, she should receive the full rewards. GM
01:24:21 <Steven> GMs and active players are encouraged to hasten the return of any characters waiting to be raised from the dead.
01:25:00 <MekkisScreen> so I'll just hand out some scrolls of Raise dead, on credit
01:25:06 <MekkisScreen> sounds good
01:25:13 <Steven> so, if a player is killed in encounter 1 and isnt raised till encounter 8 then they would miss out on experience is how i would read that
01:25:19 <MekkisScreen> "give them back when you're done"
01:25:38 <Steven> you are to expedite them being raised, find a way to make it happen but i wouldnt just hand them a scroll of it
01:25:46 <MekkisScreen> unless I want to be kind, and just hand them out outright
01:25:50 <Steven> because there is a way for them to find a hidden cache of supplies
01:26:01 <Steven> and that costs prestige
01:26:33 <MekkisScreen> it's a Matt Goodall module. Death isn't an "if". It's a "when".
01:27:39 <Steven> yeah matt goodall writes some killer stuff
01:27:49 <Steven> Wrath of the Accursed was stupid as fuck
01:28:45 <Steven> course it didnt help that the GM misread and so the party tried to 'talk' to a person who was not the right person and so they got a sneak attack off and dropped one person to death before combat even began
01:29:16 <Steven> later on in the fight divine intervention by the dead persons god brought them back
01:29:27 <Steven> cause he felt bad that his fuck up had killed a person
01:29:54 <Wrothmonk> Divine intervention: D&D code for fixing a screwup.
01:30:09 <Steven> yup, and sometimes needed.
01:30:20 <Hydrazine> Hey Steven, we haven't heard any Tales from Bobby lately.
01:30:33 <Steven> thats because i dont have to play with bobby EVER
01:30:46 <Steven> last time i played with bobby, walter was sitting at the table with me
01:31:01 <Steven> and so walter 'corrected' all of his misconceptions about rules
01:31:26 <Steven> at the end of which walter pulled me aside and was like wow... you were right... he does try to fuck people over
01:31:34 <Steven> vindication! BOOSH!
01:34:46 <Wrothmonk> Quick general question; Would it be abnormal if I joined an irc channel, checked when everybody was last active, and everyone was last active at exactly midnight?
01:35:05 <Hydrazine> Depends.

01:35:19 <Steven> im crazy...
01:36:04 <Wrothmonk> No, not this channel.
01:39:26 <Hydrazine> Maybe its a channel of moon worshipping cultists.
01:41:25 <Wrothmonk> ...
01:41:28 <Wrothmonk> O.o
01:42:04 <Hydrazine> We think my aunt's neighbors are cultists.
01:42:32 <Steven> they religious?
01:42:35 <Hydrazine> The whole family leaves the house, together, wearing long flowing white robes, at about 10 pm.
01:43:57 <Wrothmonk> With or withought masks?
01:44:36 <Hydrazine> No masks, but some headgear as part of the outfit.
01:45:01 <Wrothmonk> Whats the headgear?
01:45:20 <Hydrazine> Balls if I know.
01:46:07 <Wrothmonk> What does it look like?
01:47:31 <Hydrazine> Couldn't say with accuracy. Been a while since I seen em. I remember the robes though.
01:47:50 <Hydrazine> It was thin too, kinda gauzy.
01:48:01 <Wrothmonk> If they were a cult they probably tried to sacrifice each other at the same time :P

02:13:23 <Wrothmonk> I once played a superhero rp. Surprisingly I was the first person to come up with a playable spider pig character :p
02:14:02 * Hydrazine ponders.
02:14:11 <Hydrazine> Druid with a boar familiar and spider climb?
02:14:24 <Wrothmonk> Yup.
02:14:46 <Hydrazine> I did some superheroic tabletop before.
02:17:13 <Steven> im back too
02:17:16 <Steven> i got snacks
02:17:16 <Wrothmonk> Now if I can just think of a harry plopped character...

02:38:34 <MekkisScreen> I've wanted to buy a high-quality mask
02:42:27 <Hydrazine> For?
02:42:28 <Hydrazine> Of?
02:43:27 <MekkisScreen> not sure
02:53:52 <Wrothmonk> You just want a high quality mask?

03:02:46 * Wrothmonk fist-bumps Brunius
03:03:17 <Hydrazine> I think most people already forgot trying to say the name of that damn volcano
03:12:12 <Brunius> Wroth, you're in an IRC channel dedicated to played D&D
03:12:15 <Brunius> er
03:12:18 <Brunius> playing

03:31:23 * Mekkis got new monitors at work
03:31:41 * Wrothmonk is bored.
03:32:02 <Mekkis> Wrothmonk, up for some PFS in, say, three hours?
03:33:47 <Wrothmonk> 3 hours? I may be asleep by then.
03:34:29 <Wrothmonk> Possibly not.
03:34:59 <Wrothmonk> I'll be willing to join if, if I'm still awake.
03:37:29 <Mekkis> Mytiazair will buy a staff of shrieking
03:37:54 <Wrothmonk> So he's going to become a flasher?
03:38:03 <Wrothmonk> He shows his staff to a woman and she shrieks?
03:38:52 <Wrothmonk> Do the people that come up with items always make dick jokes for every single named staff?
03:39:35 <Mekkis> yep
03:39:41 <Mekkis> no
03:39:52 <Mekkis> but some people have sick minds and do the job for them
03:40:06 * Wrothmonk points at himself
03:40:09 <Wrothmonk> Like me :p
03:40:23 <MekkisScreen> indeed
03:44:16 <Wrothmonk> So are Mekkis and MekkisScreen different people or is it just one person using multiple clients?
03:44:52 <Mekkis> yes
03:45:37 <Wrothmonk> ?
03:47:01 <Wrothmonk> Yes to which?
03:47:24 <Mekkis> to your statement
03:48:13 <Wrothmonk> My statement had to options. It is not clear with a boolean value which is correct.
03:48:18 <Wrothmonk> two*
03:48:31 <Mekkis> yes
03:48:38 <Mekkis> and your statement is correct
03:49:15 <Wrothmonk> So you are two different people, and one person using two clients?
03:49:20 <Wrothmonk> Split personality?
03:49:31 <Mekkis> no
03:49:40 <Mekkis> I'm two different people or one person using two clients
03:49:57 <Wrothmonk> ...
03:50:58 <Hydrazine> I think hes just a dork
03:53:03 <Mekkis> I thought you knew me better than that Hydrazine
03:58:14 <Wrothmonk> So in order to alleviate boredom, I have an idea. Who wants to test my ability to respond with a youtube video to anything you say.
03:59:04 <Mekkis> depends
03:59:15 <Mekkis> do I need to watch said youtube videos?
04:00:01 <Wrothmonk> Not really. Its meant to be humorous but if you don't want to other people can.
04:00:12 <Mekkis> so I can't force you to look up gay porn?
04:00:20 <Wrothmonk> ...
04:00:26 <Wrothmonk> I said youtube video.
04:01:31 <Wrothmonk> Also, what could you say to make me look up gay porn as a response?
04:04:38 <Wrothmonk> For instance if you said: Gay porn
04:04:44 <Wrothmonk> I would link this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lgI2ZQVyrBo
04:04:54 <Wrothmonk> "NOOOOOOOOO" Compilation
04:06:30 <Wrothmonk> or perhaps this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZ5LpwO-An4&feature=endscreen
04:06:36 <Wrothmonk> HEYYEYAAEYAAAEYAEYAA
04:07:23 <Wrothmonk> Theres your gay porn.
04:18:28 <Wrothmonk> In other words, no. I will not be linking porn of any kind. Unless you have some twisted fantasy I don't know about that doesn't involve nudity.
04:26:34 <Ballig> are you linking gay porn

18:40:28 <Ballig> a swede
18:40:29 <Mekkis> nice to have a swede here
18:40:43 <Ballig> we have an estonian, that's almost a swede
18:40:50 mib_a3w8q8 is now known as Thani
18:40:51 <Thani> Hey.
18:40:54 <Ballig> just a lake in between
18:40:56 <Thani> So uh, what is this exactly?
18:41:07 <Mekkis> a channel where we play roleplaying games online
18:41:19 <Thani> Sweet.
18:41:22 <Wrothmonk> Mainly pathfinder society.
18:41:41 <Thani> You do this regularly?
18:41:47 <Mekkis> yeah
18:41:53 <Ballig> once a week-ish
18:41:56 <Mekkis> between 2 and 8 times a month
18:41:57 <Mekkis> it seems
18:42:57 <Thani> Just wondering. Cause I'm at the computer like all the time. I just want something to do :/
18:43:18 <Mekkis> have you played D&D or Pathfinder before?
18:43:27 <Thani> I have, yeah, both.
18:45:01 <Thani> Never really got into how pathfinder society works. What are the rules?
18:45:22 <Mekkis> basically, by-the-book pathfinder
18:45:43 <Mekkis> with a bunch of 4-hour-long scenarios that can be played in no particular order
18:45:58 <Mekkis> your character persists between scenarios
18:46:14 <Thani> Cool.
18:46:31 <Ballig> it's a good way to get people playing without needing them to commit to long campaigns
18:49:06 <Thani> So how many of you guys play?
18:49:15 <Mekkis> in here?
18:49:22 <Mekkis> or worldwide?
18:49:36 <Ballig> we have a varying number of players
18:49:52 <Ballig> usually between 6 and 15 people who play regularly, I'd say?
18:49:59 <Mekkis> yeah
18:50:14 <Mekkis> in terms of average player count, Brunius is on top :)
18:50:32 <Brunius> Hmmm?
18:50:34 <Ballig> are you saying he's an average player
18:50:37 <Mekkis> no
18:50:38 <Ballig> that's a bit uncalled for
18:50:54 <Mekkis> I'm saying that when he DMs, he gets the most players
18:50:55 <Mekkis> :)
18:51:00 <Mekkis> on average
18:51:10 <Ballig> because he's only GMed three times?
18:51:11 <Ballig> :P
18:51:29 <Thani> But yeah, I'm willing to try this out.
18:51:37 <Mekkis> cool
18:51:47 <Mekkis> there are some games scheduled for this weekend
18:51:53 <Thani> I saw that.
18:52:10 <Mekkis> and it's likely that there will be something next weekend...
18:52:14 <Ballig> mind if I ask what you googled for to find us Thani
18:52:37 <Thani> It was something along the lines of...
18:53:44 <Thani> I don't remember, got to search my history.
18:53:46 <Ballig> haha
18:53:58 <Ballig> I was about to say it's like this is a movie and you were about to tell us who the killer is
18:53:58 <Ballig> :p
18:54:40 <Thani> Must've been "IRC pathfinder", was on the first page.
18:55:07 <Wrothmonk> I searched D&D irc games. I got it on the second page.
18:55:38 <Ballig> cool thanks
18:55:39 <Mekkis> better work on your SEO Ballig :)
18:55:48 <Thani> But yeah. Do I make a level 1 character? Core only or do you guys use any 3rd party material or psionics or something?
18:55:54 <Mekkis> core only
18:55:59 <Ballig> yeah, I've dropped rank because I extended the search terms to include Pathfinder
18:56:04 <Ballig> and more "online" than "IRC"
18:56:06 <Thani> Good 'nuff
18:56:25 <Mekkis> http://paizo.com/products/btpy84k4
18:56:30 <Mekkis> this is the /Guide/
18:56:50 <Ballig> http://paizo.com/pathfinderSociety/about/additionalResources that lets you know what resources you can use with a character in Pathfinder Society
18:56:56 <Ballig> it's pretty extensive
18:57:01 <Thani> I checked out some pathfinder games using one of those RPG clients, Traipse/OpenRPG and damn, there was this one persistent world called Black Marshes...
18:57:42 <Thani> They had anime catgirls and all sorts of weird stuff. Pathfinder/D&D crossover with handpicked 3rd party content. They were barely RPing, just rolling tons of dices from what I saw.
18:57:51 <Thani> I was like "NOPE."
18:58:07 <Ballig> haha
18:58:13 tashphones has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
18:58:17 <Wrothmonk> lol.
18:58:28 <Wrothmonk> You saw them rollin and started hat in?
18:58:29 <Ballig> good old guys playing cat girls
18:58:31 <Wrothmonk> hatin*
18:59:27 <Thani> Well, it was hardly regular rolls. It was like, maybe a ten lines of [4d6.open(6)+32+4+3+5+2+3+2d6+342+Idontevenknow], just a wall of text of attacks basicly.
18:59:50 <Thani> Super over-optimized characters with homebrew content basicly.
19:00:05 <Ballig> yeah, designed to give them hardons over how much awesome they are pulling out of their ass
19:00:35 <Ballig> it's a very easy trap to fall in when you start home-brewing rules
19:00:40 <Thani> It took them like 10-20min just to figure out what his total damage was. It was like 2500+
19:00:51 <Thani> And not one bit of RP
19:01:38 tashphones ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
19:07:18 <Wrothmonk> Yeah I hate it when systems can result in overpowered stuff like that. Also when it restricts rp to make rolls realistic.
19:07:52 <Wrothmonk> In one simplistic system my character managed to dodge a bullet from a gun held against my character's arm.
19:08:37 <Wrothmonk> Admittedly he was an android so he could move fucking fast but still.
19:08:56 <Wrothmonk> Doesn't make much sense.
19:09:12 <Ballig> were the rules "homebrew"?
19:09:33 <Wrothmonk> Sorta.
19:09:49 <Wrothmonk> They took a ruleset and didn't use the advanced mechanics.
19:10:03 <Ballig> I've found that people who want to desperately homebrew rules often do so because they don't like how published rules are balanced
19:10:08 <Ballig> usually because they want bigger and better damage
19:10:26 <Ballig> and to be moar oresum
19:10:36 * Wrothmonk rolls eyes.
19:10:46 <Wrothmonk> Idiots are abundant.
19:17:16 <Wrothmonk> Anyway I quit that one a while ago since the one asshole kept trying to get my characters killed.
19:18:17 <Ballig> should have just told him you had a quantum force field activated that could be penetrated only by the rocks of a far-away galaxy
19:18:20 <Ballig> he'd understand
19:18:31 <Ballig> (and then a meteor from that galaxy would kill you next game)
19:18:53 <Thani> Unknown to him however, dying makes your stronger.
19:19:08 <Wrothmonk> That would be against the rules.
19:19:44 <Wrothmonk> You could only get a character back from being killed by a GM by convincing the head GM to do some divine intervention.
19:19:53 <Wrothmonk> Which would allow you to come back as a ghost.
19:20:02 <Wrothmonk> A solid ghost but still a ghost.
19:20:09 <Wrothmonk> One more death and your character is gone.
19:21:21 <Wrothmonk> As far as I know only 5 people have convinced the head GM.
19:21:27 <Ballig> tell him that the galaxy your character is from, death is impermanent
19:21:36 <Ballig> there is no afterlife, so people just come back to life
19:22:18 <Wrothmonk> The head GM had a no tolerance for god moving.
19:22:22 <Wrothmonk> moding*
19:22:33 <Ballig> sounds like that's how the game was designed though!
19:23:03 <Wrothmonk> Yeah he'd allow anything if a roll happened depending on how higher the winning roll was.
19:28:54 <Thani> How do you guys even roll dices?
19:29:04 <Wrothmonk> Bots.
19:30:01 <Ballig> !roll 1d20+15
19:30:02 <dicebot> Ballig, 1d20+15: [1d20=4] 19
19:30:10 <Thani> Oh, fancy.
19:30:28 <Wrothmonk> !roll 1d6+1d6
19:30:28 <dicebot> Wrothmonk, 1d6+1d6: [1d6=5; 1d6=6] 11
19:30:39 <Wrothmonk> Really fancy.
19:33:49 <Steven> sup sup
19:34:08 <Wrothmonk> I wonder…. Can you attach messages to rolls with this bot?
19:34:21 <Brunius> !roll 1d20+1 attack
19:34:21 <dicebot> Brunius, attack: [1d20=17] 18
19:34:24 <Ballig> !roll 1d20+15 attack; 1d10+4 damage
19:34:25 <dicebot> Ballig, attack: [1d20=10] 25; damage: [1d10=5] 9
19:34:25 <Thani> !roll 1d20+4 Initiative
19:34:26 <dicebot> Thani, Initiative: [1d20=3] 7
19:34:39 <Wrothmonk> Nice.
19:34:42 <Brunius> so in conclusion, no, you can't
19:34:50 <Ballig> not even once
19:35:06 <Wrothmonk> lol.
19:35:19 <Wrothmonk> Let me try.
19:35:33 <Wrothmonk> !roll 2d6 roll a 5
19:35:34 <dicebot> Wrothmonk, roll a 5: [2d6=2,3 roll a 5] 5
19:35:47 <Wrothmonk> wut.
19:35:59 <Wrothmonk> I can't believe that worked.
19:36:02 <Ballig> ha
19:36:13 <Ballig> not sure why my bot sometimes puts the description in the roll bit, might be the use of a number
19:36:14 <Brunius> !roll 2d6 roll a 6
19:36:15 <dicebot> Brunius, roll a 6: [2d6=5,3 roll a 6] 8
19:36:26 <Brunius> !roll 2d6 couple of
19:36:27 <dicebot> Brunius, couple of: [2d6=5,5 couple of] 10
19:36:30 <Brunius> !roll 2d6 couple
19:36:31 <dicebot> Brunius, couple: [2d6=3,4 couple] 7
19:36:37 <Brunius> Perhaps
19:36:38 <Ballig> oh, I bet it's the double dice
19:36:42 <Ballig> !roll 1d5 roll a 5
19:36:43 <dicebot> Ballig, roll a 5: [1d5=3] 3
19:36:45 <Ballig> yeah it's the double dice
19:36:48 <Ballig> I'll have to look at that
19:37:00 <Wrothmonk> 3d6 roll a 3
19:37:06 <Wrothmonk> !roll 3d6 roll a 3
19:37:07 <Thani> !roll 1d6, 1d20
19:37:07 <dicebot> Wrothmonk, roll a 3: [3d6=6,4,5 roll a 3] 15
19:37:08 <dicebot> Thani, 1d6, 1d20: [1d6=1, ; 1d20=1] 2
19:37:21 <Ballig> man, two 1s
19:38:07 <Ballig> I haven't looked at Tcl in ages
19:38:15 <Ballig> I hate going from one language to another
19:39:30 <Wrothmonk> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=54VJWHL2K3I
19:39:42 <Wrothmonk> Roll a D6
19:40:49 <Ballig> why does youtube bother having ads that you scan skip after 5 seconds
19:40:55 <Ballig> the dialogue has barely even started in 5 seconds
19:41:48 <Wrothmonk> Because they are getting paid to show those commercials.
19:42:12 <Ballig> why would you pay to have a commercial that can be skipped before dialogue has started
19:42:15 <Ballig> it's madness!
19:42:23 <Wrothmonk> ...
19:42:28 <Wrothmonk> Your giving me that line?
19:42:35 <Ballig> madness, I tell you!
19:42:38 <Brunius> Why would you have a browser that doesn't block those ads
19:42:43 <Wrothmonk> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eZeYVIWz99I
19:43:00 <Wrothmonk> You never give me that line.
19:43:03 <Wrothmonk> And not expect me to.
19:43:05 <Wrothmonk> Link
19:43:06 <Wrothmonk> every
19:43:08 <Wrothmonk> fucking
19:43:09 <Wrothmonk> sparta
19:43:10 <Wrothmonk> meme
19:43:11 <Wrothmonk> ever
19:43:15 <Brunius> Don't do that
19:43:18 <Ballig> how many sparta memes are there
19:43:28 <Brunius> Don't break it up into one word per line I mean
19:43:59 <Wrothmonk> Sorry. Just meant it for emphasis.
19:44:40 <Wrothmonk> I will however spare you the barrage of links. I don't feel like filling my screen up with blue text.
19:48:55 <Wrothmonk> Ballig: In the early twenty first century, every time somebody would even whisper the word madness, everybody within hearing distance of the person would shout: "This is sparta!"
19:49:04 <Wrothmonk> There are /tons/
19:54:53 <Hydrazine> Jamaicans run fast!
19:56:36 <Steven> you wanna know who else runs fast?
19:56:44 <Hydrazine> You?
19:56:47 <Steven> people who run fast!
19:59:15 <Ballig> !roll 2d6 roll a 5
19:59:16 <dicebot> Ballig, roll a 5: [2d6=5,5] 10
19:59:26 <Wrothmonk> well it rolled a 5.
19:59:31 <Wrothmonk> twice.
19:59:33 <Ballig> it rolled two of them!
19:59:46 <Ballig> looks like I got it to stop repeating the description on multiple dice
20:00:02 <Avatar> !roll 3d6 roll a 5
20:00:03 <Wrothmonk> !roll 2d6 roll a 3
20:00:03 <dicebot> Avatar, roll a 5: [3d6=2,4,5] 11
20:00:03 <dicebot> Wrothmonk, roll a 3: [2d6=5,2] 7
20:00:13 <Wrothmonk> it rolled a five….
20:00:18 <Wrothmonk> didn't roll a 3.
20:00:22 <Wrothmonk> unless you subtract.
20:01:49 <Wrothmonk> 2d6 roll a 5
20:01:55 <Wrothmonk> !roll 2d6 roll a 5
20:01:56 <dicebot> Wrothmonk, roll a 5: [2d6=3,2] 5
20:02:02 <Wrothmonk> it likes fives.
20:02:09 <Ballig> a stopped clock is correct twice a day
20:02:20 <Wrothmonk> lol!
20:02:43 <Wrothmonk> !roll 5d6 roll a 5
20:02:43 <dicebot> Wrothmonk, roll a 5: [5d6=5,6,6,5,6] 28
20:02:48 <Brunius> I should see if the TAFE have fixed my login yet
20:03:03 <Avatar> that is a pretty sexy 5d6
20:03:14 <Wrothmonk> lol.
20:03:16 <Brunius> Oh gods I'm in!
20:03:19 <Brunius> It's amazing!
20:03:20 <Ballig> you could have rolled that in a game
20:03:28 <Ballig> but you wasted it
20:03:30 <Brunius> I've waited more than a year for this!
20:03:44 <Wrothmonk> hmmmm....
20:04:01 <Wrothmonk> !roll 1000d1 Die spam time!
20:04:02 <dicebot> Wrothmonk, Die spam time!: [1000d1=1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1
20:04:53 <Wrothmonk> your bot doesn't compress rolls?
20:05:06 <Ballig> "compress rolls"?
20:05:07 <Wrothmonk> and it doesn't do a 1 or zero with a d1?
20:05:13 <Ballig> you can't roll a 0
20:05:27 <Ballig> you're looking for a 1d2
20:05:28 <Wrothmonk> good point. Forgot that argument.
20:05:36 <Ballig> what is compressing rolls?
20:06:00 <Wrothmonk> Last bot I used if you went over like 20 dice it just gave you the result. Not the numbers added.
20:06:16 <Brunius> Sweet
20:06:18 <Ballig> this dice just ignores you if it's too high
20:06:22 <Brunius> Looks like I can get two copies of this software
20:06:48 <Ballig> there's never any legitimate reason to roll a stupidly large number of dice
20:08:35 <Wrothmonk> True.

20:16:28 <Brunius> ha
20:16:39 <Brunius> Microsoft is still offering XP for free
20:16:51 <Steven> what up
20:17:19 <Wrothmonk> You get what you pay for :P
20:17:33 <Brunius> (Also, 7 for free)
20:17:39 <Brunius> (But on the other hand...vista)
20:17:56 <Wrothmonk> On the other hand, a robot arm.
20:18:19 <Wrothmonk> Free with lightsaber dismemberment.
20:20:10 <MekkisScreen> compiler errora
20:21:12 <Steven> what you need mek?
20:21:30 <Avatar> man I miss playing star wars
20:22:24 Steven ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
20:22:28 <Steven> yo
20:22:35 <Avatar> here comes trouble
20:23:27 <Brunius> heh
20:23:30 <Brunius> trouble
20:23:35 <Brunius> dat game
20:23:41 <Avatar> did you play in star wars brunius
20:23:49 <Brunius> Before my time man
20:23:53 <Avatar> sux
20:23:56 <Brunius> I've only been around for two years
20:24:22 <MekkisScreen> you know how you can't breach your alignment if you're following your VC or your faction leader?
20:24:36 <Steven> whos trouble?
20:24:37 <Steven> me?
20:24:43 <Brunius> apparently
20:24:56 <Steven> nah.... im all sunshine and butterflies...
20:25:07 <Brunius> although he may have been referencing my ability to get two lots of phr33 stuff from ms
20:25:32 <Steven> yeah the whole 'i was following orders' defense
20:26:04 <Avatar> yeah you Steven
20:26:13 <MekkisScreen> You know how you shouldn't disclose your factioon mission?
20:26:27 <Steven> im okay with that avatar... you just jelly of my awesomeness lol
20:26:49 <Steven> my awesomeness at this moment includes cherry coke
20:27:05 <Ballig> Brunius: they give free stuff to students to gain market share with people who would usually not be able to afford that software
20:27:16 <Ballig> the more people who use windows, the more people likely to use microsoft office
20:27:22 <Brunius> Somehow I've been issued the ability to get it twice
20:27:25 <Brunius> I know the reasoning behind it
20:27:28 <Ballig> the more people that use microsoft office, the more people that have to use it if they want their documents to be compatible
20:27:39 <Steven> you shouldn't if its secret, but theres nothing that says you cant ask your compatriots for assistance w/ skill checks
20:28:54 <Steven> I think its a grey area that probably should be restricted
20:29:22 <Avatar> speaking of windows, I need to re-genuine-ise my copy
20:29:31 <Avatar> it is complaining because it found me out once again !
20:29:45 <MekkisScreen> so if you ask the paladin for help on a skill check for something Evil, does it absolve them?
20:30:03 <Steven> bastard authentication
20:30:05 <Steven> no
20:30:16 <Ballig> how does it lose authenticity
20:30:26 <Avatar> it was never authentic
20:30:36 <Ballig> yeah but how does it lose the fake authenticity
20:30:45 <Avatar> probably a windows update
20:30:51 <Steven> just because you cant switch alignments for following orders doesnt mean your god wont punish you for doing something evil
20:31:08 <Ballig> that's never happened to me
20:31:19 <Avatar> send me whatever you use
20:31:33 <Steven> wheres mort? shouldnt she be in here being crazy?
20:31:38 <MekkisScreen> what about if the mission says "don't let anyone see you do X" so you cast cloudkill in a crowded street
20:31:38 <Brunius> probably
20:31:43 <Avatar> she threw a tantrum the other day
20:31:49 <Brunius> with her LG-ness she would be telling Avatar off
20:31:57 <Steven> somebody tell her she doesnt have a tail again?
20:32:20 <Avatar> no she was talking weirdly and ballig called her out on it
20:32:22 <Steven> then that is an obviously evil act
20:32:30 <Ballig> whatever one I use was on my HD that died
20:32:36 <Ballig> I have a backup but I can't be bothered getting to it now
20:32:42 <Steven> unless its a town populated ALL evil creatures
20:32:59 <Avatar> no rush
20:33:19 <MekkisScreen> but it's sanctioned by the paracountess...
20:34:22 <Steven> the paracountess said dont let anyone see you, that does not equate to its okay to kill off 20-30 people
20:36:12 <Steven> oh mans... i just realized im prepping like 20lbs of chicken today
20:37:44 <Brunius> Man, my firewall is probably blocking this stupid downloader
20:37:58 <Ballig> twist? it's probably the windows firewall!
20:38:10 <Brunius> What, XP is resisting being upgraded to 7?
20:38:10 <Steven> kill it
20:38:20 <Steven> XP... its skynet
20:38:33 <Brunius> Oh, now you tell me
20:38:43 <Steven> hurry... get to crystal mountain
20:39:03 <Brunius> There is no fate but what we make for ourselves
20:39:51 <Steven> well i have the recipe converted for 20lbs
20:39:53 <MekkisScreen> it does in cheliax
20:40:12 <Ballig> Steven's fate is obesity by chicken
20:40:20 <Steven> nope
20:40:34 <Steven> my fate is obesity from chicken and mushrooms
20:40:40 <Steven> it is a glorious fate...
20:40:50 <MekkisScreen> what if the chelish PCs are about to comprimise the Main Mission?
20:41:42 <Wrothmonk> and a very trippy one.
20:41:59 <Ballig> that's madness
20:42:48 <Wrothmonk> http://notalwaysright.com/paging-leonidas-to-the-front-desk/1218
20:42:50 <Steven> margarita chicken, tequila mushrooms, Sausage-beef hamburgers
20:42:56 <Steven> pasta salad
20:43:07 <Steven> cupcakes and cookies
20:43:38 <Steven> No, cheliax is a land based of the rule of law
20:43:58 <tashphones> Yup
20:44:02 <tashphones> Death by food.
20:44:18 * Wrothmonk stares at tash
20:44:21 <Steven> death by good food....
20:44:24 <Wrothmonk> Where the heck did you come from!
20:44:32 <Steven> plus its a 4 person birthday party
20:44:40 <tashphones> Im always here...
20:44:47 <Steven> with like 25 or so people comming
20:44:48 <Steven> and killing 20-30 people is something that would bring the hellknights if there were any in the city
20:44:50 <MekkisScreen> and the pen of the paracountess is law!
20:45:17 <tashphones> Steven, wanna cater my party tomorrow?
20:45:31 <MekkisScreen> if she didn't want me to kill 20-30 people, she should have told me!
20:45:34 <Steven> unless the paracountess gives specific permission to kill a bunch of people she has not authorized the PCs to cloudkill in the streets
20:45:40 <Steven> no, i have a policy of never going to Aust
20:45:52 <tashphones> :(
20:45:56 <Steven> all those poisonous spiders.... fuck that noise
20:46:07 <tashphones> I can't really fault you on that one tbh
20:46:15 <Ballig> like 3 million babies survive Australia every day
20:46:25 <Ballig> are you lamer than a baby
20:46:27 <MekkisScreen> that's not how chelish law works
20:46:36 <Wrothmonk> out of how many babies?
20:46:39 <Steven> when it comes to spiders.... yes
20:47:06 <MekkisScreen> that's what I like about the paracountess. She wants results, and doesn't care how she gets them
20:47:13 <tashphones> I haven't died yet.
20:47:28 <Brunius> Dude, 15 years old, never even SEEN a poisonous spider
20:47:33 <Steven> my karma is saving up to kill me from a spider bite
20:47:35 <Brunius> Let alone been bitten by one
20:47:48 <Ballig> you've never seen a poisonous spider?
20:47:52 <Ballig> where do you live, under the ocean?
20:47:59 <tashphones> !
20:48:05 <Brunius> Emerald, Victoria
20:48:06 <tashphones> I call bs brunius
20:48:08 <Brunius> Since you ask
20:48:12 <Ballig> you know redbacks are poisonous right
20:48:18 <tashphones> You shortsighted?
20:48:19 <Brunius> I know.
20:48:25 <Ballig> you've never seen a redback?
20:48:27 <Brunius> Apparently I have superhuman vision
20:48:30 <Brunius> Not to my knowledge
20:48:39 <Ballig> they don't have to have red backs to be redbacks
20:48:49 <Ballig> but they're very common
20:48:50 <Brunius> ...
20:48:59 <Brunius> Somehow I don't believe you.
20:49:09 <tashphones> I haven't been caused by a shark
20:49:18 <tashphones> Mauled
20:49:34 <tashphones> He's right:-)
20:49:56 <Ballig> redbacks don't have to have red backs :p
20:49:59 <tashphones> And that's a big thing for me to say. Ballig is never right.
20:50:06 <Ballig> ha
20:50:17 <Wrothmonk> Mek. I don't mean to but in here, but think about it for a second from the character's point of view.
20:50:20 <Steven> yeah... places i dont go... Aust, the Ocean, on top of volcanos
20:51:01 <Wrothmonk> You know technically almost every bug or arachnid is slightly poisonous. Just not always to humans or very little to humans.
20:51:10 <Brunius> Well, the males are brown
20:51:31 <Brunius> But looking at the picture of them on wikipedia, I don't recall seeing one of those either
20:51:53 <Ballig> have you seen any spider that looks like the non-male but without the red stripe?
20:52:40 <Brunius> non-male?
20:52:46 <Brunius> You could just say female you know
20:52:56 <Brunius> But no, not that I recall
20:53:10 <Steven> tash you having a party tomorrow too?
20:53:14 <Ballig> I refuse to give non-males their own identity! ha ha!
20:53:19 <Wrothmonk> All of the rules are created to make sure people don't do something idiotic that is completely out of character.
20:53:40 <Steven> knocked up in the kitchen eh ballig?
20:53:50 <tashphones> See? Calling is always wrong.
20:53:58 <Ballig> I agree
20:54:18 <tashphones> Ballig*
20:54:19 <Ballig> calling is ALWAYS wrong
20:54:19 <Ballig> you should text
20:54:21 <Steven> i dunno... depends on if its a booty call!
20:54:24 <tashphones> Yeah Steven. Expecting 60-100
20:54:24 <Steven> heyo!
20:54:33 <Steven> whatcha servin?
20:54:34 <Wrothmonk> At least that is what I hope the people that create the rules are aiming for.
20:54:40 * tashphones highfive
20:55:15 <tashphones> For 70? I bought bbq gas and turned on a second fridge. Byo.
20:55:25 <Steven> The paracountess wants results that are in line with the stated goals of cheliax, those goals do not include killing slaves, serfs, laborers, or craftsmen, let alone the potential to kill a slumming noble. The Paracountess is not chaotic as that would put her at odds with the ruling house of thrune
20:55:42 <Ballig> byo food?
20:55:53 <Steven> potluck?
20:55:55 <Steven> actually i believe it says something very similar to this on the faction page at paizo
20:56:00 <Brunius> I don't even know if I know 70 people
20:56:03 <Ballig> not sure we use that term here
20:56:13 <tashphones> Yeah
20:56:18 <Steven> http://paizo.com/pathfinderSociety/factions/cheliax
20:56:56 <Steven> thats how my party is over here
20:57:23 <Steven> im bringing margarita chicken and tequila mushrooms
20:58:06 <Steven> my brother is bringing Sausage/beef patties
20:58:30 <Steven> im giving my brother my recipie for sausage/beef patties for hamburgers
20:58:38 <tashphones> :)
20:59:00 <Steven> Personally i would not accept the justification that cloudkilling in the streets is justified as 'just following orders'
20:59:09 <MekkisScreen> sure. We need to get X done when noone's watching. nothing like a slowly moving cloud of nerve gas to move people away
20:59:43 <Steven> OH OH OH the other day
20:59:43 <Ballig> Avatar: http://i.imgur.com/2FElz.jpeg is that a picture of you?
20:59:47 <Steven> the paracountess told you to do XXXX without being seen, not kill 20-30 people to make sure you get XXXX done
20:59:58 <Steven> thats an alignment change.
21:00:06 <Hydrazine> I agree with Steven. Adding extra murder to a faction mission is your own problem.
21:00:14 <Steven> i caught sam looking though my recipe book
21:00:27 <MekkisScreen> as opposed to what' a 7d6 channel negative energy in a temple devoted to cayden caelien in Absalomn
21:00:40 <Brunius> A couple of my friends are into DDR...
21:00:56 <Steven> Did they kill a bunch of innocents?
21:01:05 <Avatar> no but I can see how you could be mistaken that it was me
21:01:13 <MekkisScreen> yes
21:01:21 <Steven> alignment change
21:01:29 <MekkisScreen> really?
21:01:32 <Avatar> I have done similar poses after a good round
21:01:43 <Ballig> he's got that pose because the machine is in his bedroom
21:01:52 <Steven> yes, if they willingly kill innocents after being warned that it is considered an evil act
21:01:55 <MekkisScreen> who would be adjudicating that?
21:01:55 <Avatar> maybe I should buy one
21:01:58 <Avatar> how much do they cost
21:02:08 <Steven> then its an alignment change
21:02:36 <Ballig> I'd expect minimum $5k
21:03:07 <Wrothmonk> Yahoo answers: 14k used
21:03:16 <Steven> http://www.monkeysarcades.com/Dance_Arcade_Machines_s/119.htm
21:03:39 <Ballig> $5k for "Dance Danve Revolution SuperNova 2" in ebay.com
21:03:41 <Steven> so, you channel negative energy by a bunch of innocents, one of them is out of range, sees you kill a shit ton of people, he runs and gets some guards they show up in 1d4 to 1d6 minutes considering city size
21:03:50 Sachiru ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
21:03:56 <Avatar> the older editions are actually better
21:04:02 <tashphones> Ffffuuu i hate kids.
21:04:06 <Avatar> it went downhills
21:04:08 <Avatar> -s
21:04:11 <Brunius> :(
21:04:15 <Steven> 10-15 guards show up...
21:04:16 <Brunius> Tashes, we aren't all evil
21:04:22 <Brunius> Why?
21:04:29 <Avatar> most of you are
21:04:37 <Steven> im not a kid...
21:04:42 <MekkisScreen> I mean, who adjudicates the alignment change?
21:04:42 <Steven> i just act like one most of the time.
21:04:49 <Avatar> we don't know that for sure yet
21:04:53 <tashphones> I just got silly stringed
21:05:04 <Brunius> Oh, those things
21:05:06 <Avatar> how did you get silly stringed
21:05:08 <Steven> hurry... beat the offender with a shovel
21:05:09 <Avatar> tackled them
21:05:12 <Brunius> Beat them up.
21:05:15 <Steven> bet they never do it again....
21:05:23 <Brunius> The cops will understand
21:05:23 <Avatar> you're bigger and stronger
21:05:27 <Steven> The GM, everyone is supposed to get 2-3 'warnings' before they are slapped with an alignment change
21:05:49 <tashphones> Their mothers are here
21:05:58 <MekkisScreen> doesn't it need to go throught the VC?
21:06:04 <tashphones> And they're all bigger than me
21:06:04 <Steven> involve them... i bet they want to beat the little shits too
21:06:13 <Steven> but if somebody kills 10+ innocents after being warned its an evil act, ide count it as 2
21:06:23 <tashphones> Lol
21:06:34 <Steven> and then the next time they do something evil, alignment change, the character is marked as dead on the website
21:06:50 <MekkisScreen> doesn't it need to go through the VC?
21:06:57 <Steven> nope
21:07:33 <Steven> you may contact the VC to talk to them about recommendations after the first evil act and see if your call was right
21:07:58 <Steven> woot, goin to sleep, peace out peeps, see you... well prolly tomorrow at the end of the day...
21:08:02 Steven has quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
21:08:04 <Steven> and the player can contact the VC/VL to talk to them about what they feel may have been an unfair call
21:08:15 <MekkisScreen> what if the character doing the negative channeling in the temple of cayden caelien was being played by the continent's local VL?
21:08:23 <MekkisScreen> VC sorry
21:09:06 <Steven> I would have warned him that channeling in a crowded location with so many innocents is a boarderline evil act before i let him roll the dice]
21:10:29 <Steven> if he persisted, then you let him know that it was an act which was less then appropriate for his alignment
21:10:38 <Steven> and you move on with the game
21:11:40 <MekkisScreen> everyone loves Slip though
21:11:42 <Steven> when you hand out the chronical sheet you mark down at the Conditions gained GM warning for Evil Act. 1/3, 2/3 3/3
21:11:56 <Steven> depending on how many warnings you want to give the person
21:12:30 <Steven> and if they push further into more evil acts during that game, you warn them
21:12:39 <Steven> and just up the counter
21:13:08 <Steven> and if they become evil, their character is no longer playable
21:13:26 <Steven> its marked as dead, doesnt matter if mike brock was playing the character, thats how i would handle it
21:14:25 <Steven> Ive already 'killed' a player for being evil, he is officially locked in the prison
21:14:52 <Steven> int hat town where the midnight mauler takes place
21:15:19 <Steven> he killed a bum after a failed robbery, and the guards caught him
21:15:36 <Steven> he was just going to get a warning, but the guards caught him
21:15:47 <Steven> and his compatriots failed to make a strong defense for his freedom
21:18:41 <MekkisScreen> I am glad that my local VC is so accommadating
21:19:31 <Steven> once school starts up here, walter and i project 4 tables
21:19:48 <Steven> on wednesday and sunday
21:22:22 <MekkisScreen> what's your gm count?
21:22:31 <Steven> officially im at 22 i believe
21:23:40 <Steven> Ive ran about 40-50 tables including the scenarios of run for my friends over in moscow
21:24:07 <Steven> moscow idaho, not russia
21:24:19 <Steven> and of course excluding home brews
21:24:44 <Steven> i finally got my buddy josh convinced to come play pfs at the shop to give it a try
21:25:52 <Steven> gonna be super sweet!
21:26:31 <Steven> Josh and I are the ones that ruined my friend Joe's homebrew by killing the mayor... told him he shouldnt allow evil characters... he didnt listen though
21:27:27 <Steven> I also took over joes previous home brew because joe dicked around too much while GMing and people got bored, so we started doing a rotation of GMing, and everyone prefered me to him
21:27:59 <Steven> continuity between sessions > Disjointed story line!
21:28:57 <Hydrazine> Ever have an entire table commit character suicide just to get out of a game?
21:30:36 <MekkisScreen> almost
21:31:17 <Hydrazine> I did that once.
21:31:25 <MekkisScreen> does "not turning up to complete the scenario" count?
21:32:27 <Hydrazine> Not really. I mean the whole table killing their characters.
21:32:52 <MekkisScreen> When did that happen?
21:33:00 <Hydrazine> I did it once.
21:33:03 <Hydrazine> It was that bad.
21:33:32 <MekkisScreen> when
21:33:40 <Hydrazine> Way before I met you guys.
21:33:44 <Hydrazine> Was a Hunter campaign.
21:34:14 <MekkisScreen> good. means I'm not that bad a DM :P
21:35:56 <Hydrazine> It was like a horror theme game he was running, and he was pretty new as both player and DM.
21:36:16 <Hydrazine> But he said he wanted to run a game and we let him give it a shot. And my god it was bad.
21:51:07 <Brunius> I need to write this to a CD. I was planning USB, since it likely only means bootable object.
21:51:19 <Brunius> Anyone know a good program for writing .isos to CD/USB?
21:53:22 <Wrothmonk> Nope sorry. Never had to do that sort of thing.

22:09:48 <MekkisScreen> I hope I don't get that bad
22:41:56 <Wrothmonk> Hey Mekkis, didn't you say something about a PFS game a while ago?
22:42:07 <Mekkis> I did
22:42:16 <Mekkis> there was somewhat lack of interest
22:46:22 <Wrothmonk> mmk.
22:49:25 <Mekkis> Ballig, or Avatar: you around?
22:51:31 <Wrothmonk> Both haven't done anything (at least on this irc network) for about two hours. I don't think they are around atm.
22:52:45 <MekkisScreen> when running a module now, how do you deal with character death

23:45:13 <Mekkis> tomorrow morning Mort's running something
23:45:28 <Mekkis> Tomorrow evening (7:30pm) I'll be running Devil We Know
23:45:39 <Mekkis> Sunday Avatar's running somethng
23:45:54 <Proquar> wow
23:46:22 <Proquar> i'm campaigning... so it won't be before 8 sep
23:46:43 <Mekkis> state?
23:46:53 <Proquar> local government
23:46:59 <Mekkis> what party?
23:47:02 <Mekkis> if any?
23:47:09 <Mekkis> still Green?
23:47:10 <Proquar> I may be Councillor Proquar after 8 sep
23:47:16 * Proquar crosses her fingers
23:47:17 <Proquar> yeah
23:47:27 <Proquar> we have autonomy :D
23:47:29 <Mekkis> where do I need to move to to vote for you?
23:47:36 <Proquar> Cronulla!
23:47:40 <Proquar> :o
23:47:42 <Mekkis> wow
23:48:01 <Proquar> We're going surfin' with a senator next Friday!
23:48:13 <Mekkis> can computers vote? I have control of several Cronullan computers....
23:48:26 * Proquar grins mischeviously
23:48:52 <Proquar> My running mate was employed by Wikimedia
23:49:08 <Proquar> and he keeps saying, "The sooner they allow electronic voting the better!"
23:49:17 <Mekkis> why?
23:49:23 <Proquar> to which I say, "Yeah, it's about time the hactivists ran this country" ;)
23:49:25 <Mekkis> so it can be more easily rigged
23:49:44 <Proquar> he's 'young'... and wants the world to be very modern...
23:50:07 <Mekkis> the more I learn about the US voting machines, the more I'm glad we have a paper ballot
23:50:51 * Proquar highfives Mekkis
23:50:57 <ducknuckem> Makes little difference.
23:51:11 * Mekkis highfives Proquar
23:51:28 <Mekkis> how so ducknuckem?
23:54:14 <Proquar> hey ducknuckem
23:54:27 <Proquar> what makes little difference to what?
23:59:28 <ducknuckem> I just figure that it doesn't matter whether the voting system is corrupt or not, cos it's likely any candidate will be.
23:59:57 <Mekkis> ducknuckem, you're a little wrong about that. You're also insulting Proquar.
