11:59:58 <Ballig> did you finish your training Sn0uu
12:05:24 <Sn0uu> see above
12:05:35 <Sn0uu> its a 30 dayish training
12:05:39 <Sn0uu> this is day 5 lol
12:05:46 <Ballig> what's the job
12:05:49 <Ballig> is it stuffing envelopes
12:05:53 <Sn0uu> nope
12:06:03 <Sn0uu> answering the phone for an unnamed cell phone company
12:06:12 <Ballig> did you have to pay for the training material
12:06:15 <Sn0uu> Hello, this is Sn0uu, how may I help you today?
12:06:26 <Ballig> is that how you answer it
12:06:37 <Sn0uu> Your bill is that high because you haven't paid it in about 4 months
12:07:09 <Ballig> is the training paid
12:07:11 <Sn0uu> Well unfortunatley it seems like your babies daddy didn't make that payment he said he would...
12:07:26 <Sn0uu> would you like to speak with our financial care department todaY? mk thx
12:07:34 <Sn0uu> yeah
12:07:37 <Sn0uu> its paid training
12:08:03 <Sn0uu> its legit lol
12:08:11 <fued_> callcenter?
12:08:15 <Sn0uu> basically
12:08:18 <Sn0uu> but @Home
12:08:21 <Sn0uu> which is sweet
12:08:29 <Sn0uu> but it sux cuz its still call center work
12:08:44 <Sn0uu> but it's not inbound... so...
12:09:03 <Ballig> how can it not be inbound
12:09:17 <fued_> its outbound?
12:09:25 <Ballig> you're calling random people to tell them about their bill?
12:09:26 <Sn0uu> er
12:09:26 <fued_> haha get ready to be screamed at all day long
12:09:28 <Sn0uu> i meant outbound
12:09:51 <Sn0uu> im distracted by this training...
12:10:03 <Sn0uu> did you guys know that you can get e-mails on your cell phone now?!?!?! AMAZING!
12:10:24 <Ballig> "Hello ma'am, my name is Sn0uu and I'm calling from <phone company>. Do you have a phone with us? No? Oh... do you know anyone who does? I'm trying to find someone with an oustanding bill. Anyone will do."
12:10:37 <Sn0uu> -_- "you have an hour and a half to go through these two training assignments about e-mail and instant messengers"
12:11:09 <fued_> just think, the majority of people doing this can probably barely understand all that lol
12:12:03 <Sn0uu> Steve is a busy sales guy who workd for an IT company. He has to travel a lot and wants an email solution which would allow him quick and easy access to his emails and internet. Which BlackBerry soloution would you recommend for him? "
12:12:23 <fued_> none
12:12:25 <Sn0uu> I typo'd and such
12:12:28 <fued_> because blackberry is terrible these days
12:12:33 <Ballig> I'd recommend a samsung galaxy
12:12:47 <Brunius> I recommend a Nokia C2-01
12:12:53 <fued_> even an iphone is better than blackberry these days
12:13:03 <Sn0uu> but its BB internet service, BB pro software, or BB Enterprise Server...
12:13:13 <Ballig> the only thing that "blackberry" has going for it is its reputation as a business phone
12:13:18 <Ballig> oh, you have a blackberry? it must be for /business/
12:13:26 <Sn0uu> lol
12:13:34 <Sn0uu> there was another training thing
12:13:44 <Sn0uu> where the girl wanted something for music and internet or something
12:13:49 <fued_> actually
12:13:50 <Sn0uu> and one of the options was a BB
12:13:59 <fued_> blackberry has one of the nicest game development engines
12:14:00 <Ballig> is that the option you chose
12:14:05 <fued_> they only just released it
12:14:29 <Sn0uu> and I would have actually recomeded it, so I chose it, and the training said that it was a bad choice since the BB is geared more towards business customers
12:14:44 <Sn0uu> that sux
12:16:05 <Sn0uu> but ya
12:16:12 <Sn0uu> I still have 30 mins
12:16:21 <Sn0uu> before I have to go back to the meeting room
12:16:42 <fued_> i might be hiring in a month or two lol
12:17:10 <Sn0uu> for what?
12:17:39 <Avatar> blackberries are a disaster
12:17:41 <fued_> designing a pathfinder based system for a pc game
12:18:02 <Avatar> fued don't design for blackberries
12:18:07 <fued_> yeah i do!
12:18:13 <Avatar> you want android or apple
12:18:22 <fued_> oh wait, i dont even bother even tho it would take me 1 hour or less lol
12:18:29 <Avatar> or if you want to cater to only mekkis, nokia
12:18:42 <fued_> microsoft nokia
12:20:56 <Sn0uu> i'd help
12:21:50 <Sn0uu> I love it
12:22:11 <fued_> its only if my kickstarter earns over a certain amount
12:22:15 <Sn0uu> more than half of the "assesments" have the word "clos" as an option to close things
12:22:21 <Sn0uu> ok still
12:22:23 <Sn0uu> i'll help lol
12:22:36 <Sn0uu> ur in US?
12:22:49 <fued_> i have a guy in england, and me/an artist in AUS

12:34:23 <fued_> i just want to make a bigger game than what i have currently
12:34:30 <fued_> one i can spend 6+ months on
12:36:29 <Sn0uu> I mean
12:36:34 <Sn0uu> KS = KickStarter
12:36:46 <Sn0uu> and 100% I mean are you going to be putting every game/project on there
12:36:54 <fued_> nope just this game

12:37:01 <Sn0uu> ic, why just this one?
12:37:02 <Avatar> android or apple
12:37:22 <fued_> because i dont want to overflood kickstarter, and as soon as one game gets successfull i can finance the others myself
12:37:41 <Avatar> how old are you again

12:38:03 <Avatar> oh I thought you were talking about the blackberry thing
12:38:18 <fued_> oh
12:38:27 <fued_> the blackberry one is massively multiplatform too
12:38:29 <Ballig> are the graphics for your game awesome
12:38:54 <Sn0uu> :P
12:39:00 <Sn0uu> do you have a demo you can show us?
12:39:08 <fued_> the one im working on now? yeah they are pretty cool, the first one? not so much, the new one? my artist only just got hired
12:39:35 <fued_> yeah lemme find a link to some screenshots
12:39:39 <Ballig> if I played your game and then I played Starcraft 2, would I say that Starcraft 2 was a piece of shit that I wouldn't even want to flush because it doesn't deserve to die quickly?
12:39:57 <fued_> i wasnt a fan of sc2
12:40:00 <fued_> so yes
12:40:05 <Ballig> I just mean graphics wise
12:40:22 <fued_> no lol
12:40:53 <Ballig> how much are you paying your artist
12:41:10 <fued_> $200 a week i think
12:41:34 <fued_> +royalties
12:42:07 <Ballig> $5 an hour?
12:42:24 <fued_> less
12:42:27 <fued_> lots less lol
12:42:37 <fued_> she works like crazy
12:42:40 <Ballig> he works more than 40 hour weeks?
12:42:45 <fued_> yeh
12:42:52 <fued_> https://www.dropbox.com/s/w90lr9gcazxx5sl/ss7.png
12:42:52 <Ballig> sounds illegal!
12:42:53 <fued_> that was my first game
12:43:12 <Ballig> is it like Pong crossed with Worms
12:43:25 <fued_> tetris with water
12:43:50 <Sn0uu> nah, totally legal
12:43:55 <Ballig> you should redo the game, and have little worms fighting each other on the landscape the tetris blocks make
12:43:56 <Sn0uu> its called contract work
12:43:58 <Ballig> blowing each other (and the landscape) up
12:43:59 <fued_> retro NES style rpg with more modern gameplay
12:44:00 <fued_> https://www.dropbox.com/s/8qqru0y3t0x47gg/walkimg.png
12:44:06 <Sn0uu> thats capitalizim 4 ya
12:44:25 <Ballig> I thought you said Americans were lazy spellers
12:44:41 <Sn0uu> lol
12:45:17 <Sn0uu> neat
12:45:42 <fued_> my next one, artist hasnt started on this yet tho, so its all my art
12:45:48 <fued_> https://www.dropbox.com/s/cyj1ov7jcr3bs6a/celshade.png
12:46:44 <Sn0uu> thats PF eh
12:46:49 <Sn0uu> im excited for it
12:46:51 <fued_> yeh
12:47:13 <fued_> its not as big and actiony and graphical as pfonline, but its going to be more tactical and hopefully more customisable
12:47:29 <Sn0uu> PF online?
12:47:45 Avatar has quit (Connection closed)
12:47:53 Avatar ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
12:48:25 <fued_> yeah some other company is making a legitimate PF online game
12:48:40 <fued_> its still years away tho, so i dont mind
12:49:03 <Sn0uu> oh
12:49:19 <Sn0uu> i hope they don't rip you
12:49:47 <fued_> ive already contacted pazio, they think its a great idea, i just cant use the word "pathfinder" in my game anywhere
12:50:07 <fued_> not until they have had a closer inspection
12:50:34 <Sn0uu> weird
12:50:40 <Sn0uu> sounds... sketchy?
12:50:50 <fued_> legal reasons
12:51:04 <fued_> they arent willing to put thier trademark on a product until they are sure it is good
12:51:05 <Sn0uu> i mean that they want a closer inspection :p
12:51:25 <Sn0uu> like, whats to keep them from just taking your game kinda thing
12:51:39 <fued_> game ideas are worthless
12:51:48 <fued_> its execution thats priceless
12:51:57 <fued_> people keep trying to "sell" me game ideas lol
12:52:15 <fued_> everyone has thier own idea for an awesome game these days it seems
12:52:21 <fued_> especially iphone games
12:52:46 <Sn0uu> you're a programer right
12:52:55 <fued_> Yeah
12:53:04 <Sn0uu> why don't you turn the table on them and offer to program their great idea at crazy rates
12:53:11 <Sn0uu> most may say no
12:53:20 <Sn0uu> but if you can handle the work, you both win :p
12:53:23 <fued_> all say no
12:53:37 <Sn0uu> it doesn't hurt to offer thought right
12:53:41 <fued_> "we can split the profits man! 50/50! my design, your work!"
12:53:49 <Sn0uu> heh
12:54:02 <Sn0uu> gotta love that
12:54:09 <fued_> i usually tell them to make a 50 page document about thier idea and why it will be awesome then come back to me
12:54:11 <fued_> never had someone come back to me
12:54:37 <Sn0uu> if i had the motivation I wish I had...

13:46:05 <fued_> nomnom as cho
13:46:19 <Hydrazine> I was trololol singed yesterday.
13:46:46 <Hydrazine> the enemy team didn't even touch me in teamfights. you know how that ends up.
13:47:24 <fued_> yeh
13:47:45 <fued_> ruined king blade should stop that soon tho\
13:48:07 <Hydrazine> Is it converting to general item list and not just TT?
13:56:30 <fued_> yeh
13:56:33 <fued_> replacing madreds
13:56:48 <Hydrazine> Hmmm.
13:57:00 <Hydrazine> I think I agree; Madred's is kinda stupid right now.
13:57:13 <fued_> FoN is being removed too
13:57:21 <Hydrazine> I already heard about FoN. I'll miss it.
13:57:54 <Hydrazine> My usual amumu runs around with Mercs, FH, FoN..
13:58:13 <Hydrazine> Whatever I build next depends on the setup, but by that point its pretty solid.

15:16:23 <Brunius> Why
15:26:39 <Ballig> so he can throw them at his neighbours when they make too much noise at 1am
16:26:11 <Avatar> I reckon feats need some sort of feat value
16:26:30 <Avatar> so you could take more than one per two levels in some cases
16:26:33 <fued_> standardised "tiers" of feats?
16:26:33 <Avatar> some of them are so situational
16:26:40 <Avatar> yeah
16:27:03 <Avatar> so you'd get 5 feat points when you get to choose a feat
16:27:23 <Avatar> a great feat would cost you 5 feat points, but a super situational one would cost you 1 or 2 and you could choose one or two more feats
16:27:31 <Avatar> or 5 shitty situational ones
16:28:08 <fued_> or all the situational ones could be buffed
16:28:50 tashphones ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
16:29:03 <Hydrazine> I agree with Fued's plan, I rather have the feat itself be the standard of measurement, with them being more similar in power.
16:30:49 <Ballig> yeah there's already a fairly standard "that's as powerful as a feat" in place
16:30:54 <Ballig> but you look at some feats and know how shit they are
16:31:17 <Ballig> which is okay when they're used as pre-requisites for super feats that are better than regular feats
16:31:51 <Avatar> but some aren't
16:32:11 <Avatar> for some you need pre-req feats that are better than their later feats
16:32:17 <Mekkis> like Improved Trip for instance?
16:32:17 <Ballig> yeah, they should be better
16:32:22 <Avatar> I was looking at Unseat
16:32:57 <Mekkis> Unseat's a "super-feat" or a super situational one?
16:33:08 <Avatar> situational
16:33:17 <Avatar> only usable vs people riding mounts
16:33:19 <Ballig> I wish Bobbob's wolf could get improved trip
16:33:39 <Avatar> requires power attack, improved bull rush and other shit
16:33:45 <Hydrazine> and mounted combat.
16:34:15 <Avatar> and str 13, and ride, and bab +1
16:34:19 <Hydrazine> to be fair I think atleast two of those are standard issue for charging with a lance to begin with.
16:34:24 <Avatar> that feat would cost 1 feat point
16:34:56 <Ballig> I think all NPCs should have it
16:35:07 <Ballig> it should be a standard-issue NPC feat: Unseat
16:35:36 <Hydrazine> you need 13 str and +1 bab to get power attack anyway. superfluous requirements.
16:35:48 <Mekkis> what about Spirited Charge?
16:36:11 <Brunius> You mean like Improved Initiative
16:36:30 <Avatar> improved initiative would be maybe 4
16:36:51 <Ballig> is 5 a "standard power" feat?
16:36:56 <Mekkis> how many points would Heirloom Weapon be worth?
16:37:08 <Hydrazine> trait, not a feat, Mekkis.
16:37:11 <Ballig> that's a trait
16:37:11 <Hydrazine> apples and oranges!
16:37:19 <Ballig> oranges and tomatoes!
16:37:29 <Mekkis> how much would Additional Traits be worth?
16:37:30 <Brunius> potatoes and potatoes!
16:37:42 <Ballig> that's meta
16:37:55 <Hydrazine> Depends on the traits.
16:37:57 <Avatar> additional traits would probably be 5
16:38:01 <Avatar> if in doubt, it's 5
16:38:10 <Avatar> power attack would be 5
16:38:16 <Avatar> point blank shot would be 5
16:38:20 <Mekkis> why wouldn't you just make traits feats with low costings?
16:38:26 <Brunius> Such a system could be interesting if you were 'bidding' for a limited number
16:38:27 <Mekkis> skill focus?
16:38:38 <Brunius> Sort of like in Amber RPG
16:38:46 <Avatar> because 2.5 points would get silly
16:38:58 <Mekkis> multiply everything by 2 then
16:39:03 <Ballig> why would it get silly
16:39:04 <Mekkis> 10 points for power attack
16:39:10 <Mekkis> 5 points for Armour Expert
16:39:21 <Mekkis> 10 points for Improved Initiative
16:39:23 <Avatar> easier to say 5 points for additional traits and to keep integers
16:39:29 <Mekkis> 5 points for Reactionary
16:39:39 <Ballig> 8 points for improved initiative
16:39:44 <Brunius> You think reactionary is that good?
16:39:45 <Mekkis> ah
16:39:48 <Mekkis> no
16:39:53 <Mekkis> but a lot of people do
16:39:57 <Avatar> I don't think that would work because you could get feats unintentionally that way, I think
16:40:10 <Ballig> how do you "get feats unintentionally"
16:40:24 <Hydrazine> could you save the extra fractions then?
16:41:07 <Hydrazine> Lets say you want a 8 point feat and don't want any 2s. could you get 2 6's in two levels?
16:41:21 <Avatar> I'm thinking of "strong traits" and "weak traits" and mixing it up with feats
16:41:25 <Avatar> I don't know, it might work
16:41:57 <Avatar> pre-reqs for traits are a little different though, they're not feats
16:42:40 <Ballig> why are you combining traits and feats
16:43:06 <Avatar> that's what we're talking about
16:43:12 <Avatar> mekkis brought up additional traits
16:44:14 <Hydrazine> and the thought that if traits are really just weak ass feats, and we're discussing a way to account for weak feats, why not combine them?
16:44:28 Mekkis_x200 ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
16:44:42 <Ballig> I think he just said why not have points for traits too
16:44:42 <Ballig> not necessarily why not make traits purchasable with the points you use for feats
16:45:09 <Ballig> maybe that's what he did mean, if so I think that's complicating it too much
16:45:16 <Hydrazine> <Mekkis> why wouldn't you just make traits feats with low costings?
16:46:17 <Avatar> I'd actually say the traits are pretty well balanced

16:53:09 tashphones has quit (Ping timeout: 181 seconds)
16:54:01 <Mekkis> I think the bigger problem is that scenario writers tend to choose feats that work really well in the one combat that the NPC is going to be fighting in
16:54:59 <Avatar> that isn't a problem
16:55:10 <Hydrazine> And so the situational feats are notably more effective for NPCs than players?
16:55:20 <Mekkis> remind me to run more goodall scenarios for you, Avatar
16:55:47 <Avatar> yeah I will put that on my todo list
16:56:12 <Brunius> Mekkis: Run more Goodall scenarios for us
16:56:21 <Mekkis> would you play in them?
16:56:25 <Avatar> Brunius: run more scenarios for us

18:20:36 <Steven> there is no correct legal answer because the law is variable across the globe
18:21:13 <Steven> what we talking about?
18:21:20 <Mekkis> either, Steven, you caught some of that, and are deliberately taking it out of context...
18:21:33 <Mekkis> or you're really good at coming up with something that somehow fits in
18:21:35 <Hydrazine> If its legal to kill you.
18:21:39 <Mekkis> <Mekkis> can you flurry with a quarterstaff as a two-handed weapon?
18:21:39 <Mekkis> <Hydrazine> I think the correct legal answer is no,.
18:22:00 <Steven> a quarterstaff is a double weapon
18:22:39 <Hydrazine> I think all the double weapons can be used as a two handed weapon.
18:23:24 <Steven> yes but i think while flurrying its only available mode is as a double weapon
18:23:58 <Hydrazine> So what you're saying is.
18:24:03 <Hydrazine> You agree with my answer.
18:24:52 <Steven> i agree with nothing

Objects are not damaged by the spell. For
20:10:45 <diebot> every two caster levels beyond 1st, you gain an additional missile-two at 3rd level, three at 5th, four at 7th, and the maximum of five missiles at 9th level or higher.

20:56:25 <diebot> This spell repairs damaged objects, restoring 1d4 hit points to the object. If the object has the broken condition, this condition is removed if the object is restored to at least half its original hit points. All of the pieces of an object must be present for this spell to function. Magic items can be repaired by this spell, but you must have a
20:56:25 <diebot> caster level equal to or higher than that of the object. Magic items that are destroyed (at 0 hit points or less) can be repaired with this spell, but this spell does not restore their magic abilities. This spell does not affect creatures (including constructs). This spell has no effect on objects that have been warped or otherwise transmuted, but
20:56:25 <diebot> it can still repair damage done to such items.

22:31:01 <Avatar> If your character later takes levels in another
22:31:02 <Avatar> class, she gains the amount indicated in the Hit Dice
22:31:02 <Avatar> column for all levels in that class, including 1st level.
22:31:05 <Avatar> can anyone explain to me what this means
22:31:30 <Avatar> it refers to table 2-2 with the hp listed for each class, from the PFS guide
22:33:32 <Mekkis> I'll have a look
22:33:54 <Mekkis> oh, and you should hassle Balls about muleback cords on mounts
22:34:10 <Avatar> what
22:35:19 <Mekkis> basically, Avatar, that paragraph means what you think it means
22:35:39 <Avatar> I don't understand what it means
22:36:03 <Avatar> hence my asking for an explanation
22:36:09 <Avatar> did you think I was testing you
22:36:09 <Mekkis> if you're multiclassing, for each level except your character's first level, you use the fourth column
22:36:47 <Avatar> but it says including 1st level
22:37:00 <Mekkis> I thought you thought you'd found a loophole that would allow my barbarian 1/fighter 1/cavalier 1/ranger 1/samarai 1 to have heaps of HP
22:37:18 <Mekkis> you don't get the "Hit points at 1st level" multiple times
22:37:42 <Avatar> so how does it work
22:37:43 <Mekkis> even if you're taking your first level of fighter after taking a level of barbarian
22:37:54 <Avatar> not the way you said it because that directly contradicts what it says
22:38:00 <Mekkis> ?
22:38:21 <Avatar> it says including 1st level, you say except 1st level
22:38:49 <Mekkis> character's first leven
22:38:50 <Mekkis> level
22:38:54 <Mekkis> not class first level
22:39:39 <Mekkis> so a barbarian 1 / fighter 1 would have 12+6(+con+favoured class)HP, not 12+10
22:39:56 <Avatar> what about a fighter 1 / barbarian 1
22:40:06 <Mekkis> 10+7
22:40:37 <Avatar> I can't see how that is reflected in that rule
22:41:36 <Mekkis> Pathfinder Society characters begin play with a set number of hit points and gain a specific number of hit points each time the character gains a level. Consult Table 2–2 to find the appropriate values for your character.
22:41:46 <Mekkis> so a Fighter 1 would start with 10 HP
22:42:10 <Mekkis> . If your character later takes levels in another class, she gains the amount indicated in the Hit Dice column for all levels in that class, including 1st level.
22:42:40 <Mekkis> so when the fighter takes a level in barbarian, rather than getting 12hp, she only gets 7.
22:43:10 <Avatar> wait I think I get it
22:43:16 <Avatar> it's a very confusing way to word the rule
22:43:27 <Avatar> if you take another class at a certain level, you get that level's hp
22:43:41 <Avatar> including 1st level, which is never going to be 'another class'
22:43:52 <Mekkis> You get maximum HP for your first level.
22:44:06 <Avatar> yeah for that first class
22:44:14 <Mekkis> For your first Character level
22:44:25 <Avatar> that's the same thing
22:44:32 <Mekkis> For each subsequent level, you take average, rounded up.
22:44:58 <Mekkis> Yes, it is the same thing, but Character Level is the "correct" terminology
