03:00:31 <Avatar> yeah?
03:00:33 <Avatar> what do you want to play
03:00:45 <Avatar> could've told me 2 hours ago
03:00:59 <Avatar> instead of how unfriendly whining
03:03:38 <spider21b> yea!
03:04:45 <Avatar> yea what
03:08:52 <spider21b> i agree!
03:09:03 <Sutekh> as do I . Avatar and Ballig are the same person
03:09:39 <spider21b> they are?
03:10:49 <Avatar> don't spread that filthy rumour
03:11:00 <Avatar> especially to someone as impressionable as spider21b
03:11:16 <Sutekh> filthy and lurd. That means when they are making out, its actually just one dude ......
03:11:40 * Sutekh shudders :)
03:12:50 <spider21b> wow
03:13:06 <Sutekh> I was surprised too
03:14:49 <spider21b> so if thats true, then clark kent must be superman!
03:14:55 <Sutekh> Avatar : Rise of the Runelords. Lets say I survive. Is it a Standard Chronicle sheet ? or would you level up from just the one sheet?
03:14:59 <spider21b> xd
03:14:59 <Sutekh> err
03:15:04 <Sutekh> I mean Race for the key even
03:15:08 <Sutekh> not rise
03:15:25 <Avatar> it's a sexy chronicle sheet
03:15:30 <Avatar> not a standard one
03:15:56 <Sutekh> cool
03:17:17 <Sutekh> I was thinking it goes all day
03:17:21 <Sutekh> So i wasnt sure
03:17:40 <Avatar> one and a half sessions
03:17:50 <Sutekh> ahh
03:17:51 <Avatar> or three con "slots
03:17:52 <Avatar> "
03:18:29 Wrothmonk has quit (Client exited)
03:18:29 <Sutekh> Im still unsure over my level 7 feat
03:18:43 <Sutekh> Vital Strike is nice, but so is that fast learner one
03:19:28 <Ballig> I'm still unsure what to take as my level 8 class
03:20:22 <Avatar> isn't fast learner a level 1 only
03:21:54 <spider21b> yea it is
03:22:00 <Sutekh> lol
03:22:06 <Sutekh> there goes that choice then!
03:22:10 <Sutekh> perhaps toughness
03:22:14 * Sutekh ponders
03:22:22 * Sutekh is kinda HP deficient for his level
03:23:41 <Sutekh> Are you sure its first level only?
03:23:49 <Avatar> no
03:23:50 <Avatar> check it
03:23:51 <Sutekh> the requirements here say int 13 and human
03:24:01 <Avatar> how many hp do you have
03:24:05 <Avatar> I thought you were a gunslinger
03:24:09 * Sutekh slaps Spider down
03:24:15 * Sutekh is, only con of 12 though
03:24:28 <Avatar> 12 isn't great but it's not terrible
03:24:50 <Sutekh> Well Im going to buy a belt of Physical might +2 dex and con
03:25:00 <Sutekh> Which will bump it to 14
03:26:47 <Sutekh> Do you think 14 is enough?
03:27:34 <Avatar> con?
03:27:34 <Avatar> yeah
03:27:47 <Avatar> Buck has 14 and a belt of dex
03:28:00 <spider21b> i play a gunslinger
03:28:16 <Avatar> I can't find who I played blood under absalom with
03:28:28 <spider21b> i am here
03:28:54 <Avatar> did somebody say something ?
03:29:25 <spider21b> i did!!!!!!!!!
03:29:29 <spider21b> !@#$%^&(
03:29:39 <Avatar> must be hearing things
03:29:40 <Avatar> anyway
03:29:45 <spider21b> :(
03:29:53 <spider21b> hAAAAAAAAAAAH
03:29:59 <spider21b> AAAAAAAAH
03:30:12 <Sutekh> Know your role Spider!.
03:30:20 * Sutekh points to the corner
03:30:38 <Brunius-> It was buck, Avatar
03:31:02 <spider21b> xd
03:31:07 <spider21b> thanks suteh
03:31:19 <spider21b> sutekh
03:31:22 <Avatar> yeah not listed on my sheet for some reason
03:31:28 <spider21b> hard to spell it is
03:32:15 <Steven> yo
03:32:35 <Brunius-> Steven: Make Avatar GM something for us
03:32:44 <Steven> Avatar, Gm something for them
03:32:45 <Steven> go go
03:33:00 * Steven ignores further inquiries into this matter.
03:33:55 <Avatar> you GM something for us brunius
03:35:41 <Steven> brunius, Gm something for us
03:35:42 <Steven> go go
03:35:47 * Steven ignores further inquiries into this matter.
03:42:37 <Avatar> I wonder if I have completely ignored the boon I got from blood under absalom
03:42:44 <Avatar> I don't remember what it was to check
03:44:06 <Avatar> shit, Buck is one scenario away from level 10
03:44:56 <Steven> kickin
03:45:20 <Avatar> someone will have to run something before friday
03:45:35 <Avatar> ballig you do it
03:48:25 <Avatar> shit, 6 games could put me on level 12
03:48:26 <Sutekh> Quick question: You can put Shock and Corrosive on the same weapon right?
03:48:38 <Avatar> yeah, not cheaply though
03:48:47 <Avatar> +3 bonus total I think?
03:48:54 <Sutekh> Yeah
03:48:59 * Sutekh has the money just not the fame
03:48:59 <Avatar> like 18000gp
03:49:15 <Avatar> off the top of my head
03:49:26 <Sutekh> You are right.. its 18k
03:49:58 <Sutekh> so it comes down to belt or shock
03:50:00 <Sutekh> hmm
03:51:09 <Avatar> belt
03:51:16 <Avatar> I won't be getting to 12, because I won't be playing 7-11s throughout
03:51:44 <Avatar> I'm going to be running ruby phoenix tournament soonish
03:51:53 <Sutekh> Yeah I think Belt 2. Id cap my dex out for my armor soon, and the +6 to damage would be nice
03:52:03 <Sutekh> as well as t he higher ac and better attack roll
03:54:00 <Ballig> just be aware that some weapon effects have to be activated
03:54:05 <Ballig> and probably can't be activated at the same time as others
03:54:10 <Ballig> e.g. flaming and frost
03:59:11 <spider21b> whats up?
03:59:44 <Ballig> your face
04:13:05 <Steven> dinner was decent enough
04:14:13 <Sutekh> Roadkill?
04:14:38 <Sutekh> Grits?
04:17:40 <Steven> pizza
04:46:11 <Brunius-> Haven't you already done RPT Avatar
05:12:32 <Brunius> Oh running
05:12:37 <Brunius> I blame the shitty phone screen

05:21:12 * Sutekh just blames Avatar
05:26:26 <Avatar> I think only part of everwar is playing because it would otherwise take up the entire con
05:30:26 mib_3jgy46 ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
05:31:06 mib_3jgy46 has quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
06:58:44 <Brunius> Why is only part 1 of echoes of the everwar running at arc
06:59:44 <Brunius> And would it be better to play all (X) of them in order?
06:59:58 <Brunius> 4?
07:00:15 <Brunius> Wrong button...
07:06:26 <Sutekh> indeed
07:06:32 <Sutekh> Did they fix CA?
07:07:24 <Brunius> Who
07:07:24 <Brunius> what
07:07:25 <Brunius> where
07:07:27 <Brunius> when
07:07:27 <Brunius> why
07:07:28 <Brunius> how
07:17:41 <Sutekh> Well last few times Ive used it
07:17:52 <Sutekh> Random connections, maps not appearing, people not seeing updates
07:17:54 <Sutekh> loading very slowly
07:17:57 <Sutekh> crashing etc
07:18:16 <Brunius> Ballig probably has to know about these things in order to fix them...
07:18:16 <Sutekh> and I think someone had to basically reconnect all the time to be able to see updates
07:18:32 <Brunius> I'm gonna blame that on the web server
07:18:32 <Sutekh> He was in the game I believe
07:18:39 <Sutekh> or at least some of them
07:18:51 <Mekkis> I'm going to blame windows
07:19:20 <Mekkis> has kapow_znc poked his head in yet?
07:19:30 <Brunius> It's probably a windows server
07:19:49 <Mekkis> it isn't
07:30:36 <Sutekh> My view was that it didnt like international users
07:30:47 <Sutekh> But Im no IT nerd. It could be anything
07:33:03 <Mekkis> Sutekh, the source is available
07:33:10 <Mekkis> you should fix it yourself!
07:33:19 <Sutekh> But Im no IT nerd. It could be anything
07:33:28 <Sutekh> I wouldnt know the first place to start
07:33:44 <Sutekh> I know how to use programs once explained to me, but programming?
07:33:50 <Sutekh> Never gonna happen :)
07:44:54 <MekkisScreen> ok
07:45:42 <MekkisScreen> Brunius, Avatar, Sutekh and anyone else in Melbourne: we good for MoFF on Friday morning?
07:45:58 <Brunius> What time, where?
07:46:11 <MekkisScreen> GG blackburn?
07:46:26 <MekkisScreen> When You Can Get There
07:46:46 <MekkisScreen> (until We Need To Leave For Arcanacon)
07:47:26 <Sutekh> MoFF?
07:47:39 <MekkisScreen> Master of Fallen Fortress
07:47:55 <MekkisScreen> it's a module for L1 characters
07:48:05 <MekkisScreen> so you can bring an L1 or l2
07:48:40 <Sutekh> Ill let you know tomorrow afternoon if i can make it.
07:49:00 <Sutekh> I need to visit a cemetary that morning at some point out at WIlliamstown
07:49:06 <Sutekh> before Arc
07:49:17 <MekkisScreen> oh
07:49:18 <MekkisScreen> ah
07:49:45 <Sutekh> I dont know how long it will take me to get out there and back.
07:50:00 <Brunius> Couple of hours
07:50:09 <Sutekh> because Im getting to the Hotel at 1am , Im not sure how my sleeping pattern will go as well. Might wake up at 9 :)
07:50:48 <MekkisScreen> I don't know melbourne grography
07:51:02 <Brunius> Neither do I, really
07:51:05 <Sutekh> Well i remember I had to change trains like 3 times just to get to Williamstown station
07:51:12 <Sutekh> and ive never been to the Cemetary there
07:51:16 <Sutekh> thank god for google maps
07:51:53 <MekkisScreen> Brunius: can you google maps me a travel time from Canberra to Kew?
07:52:10 <Brunius> My guess is ~11 hours 47 minutes
07:52:12 <Brunius> before looking at maps
07:52:37 <MekkisScreen> my guess is 6 hours 40
07:52:38 <Brunius> Only 6 hours 45
07:52:46 <Brunius> Man, how did I stuff up that badly
07:53:29 <MekkisScreen> because you added things like breaks and traffic
07:54:18 <MekkisScreen> personnally, I'm planning on doing it in 10-11 hours
07:54:41 <MekkisScreen> leave at 7-8ish
07:54:50 <MekkisScreen> hopefully get in by 6
07:55:10 <Brunius> That was how my school did it two years ago
07:55:34 <MekkisScreen> Kew to canberra
07:55:41 <MekkisScreen> ?
07:55:57 <Brunius> Box Hill (not far away) to Canberra
07:56:30 <MekkisScreen> the orchestra I was in did Brisbane (Spring Hill) to Sydney in 14 hours
07:57:01 <MekkisScreen> keep in mind that busses are speed-limited (governed) to 100kph

13:19:56 <Mekkis> you pinged out like, hours ago
13:22:06 <Steven> awesome
13:22:12 <Steven> it just pingponged me
13:22:14 <Mekkis> what
13:22:37 <Mekkis> why does your client even show that?
13:23:48 <Steven> because it does?
13:24:58 <Mekkis> did they make it possible to buy spells into a spellbook without buying the scroll?
13:31:32 <Wrothmonk> pingpong irc client? theres a joke in here somewhere...
13:38:01 <Mekkis> Wrothmonk, there isn't
13:38:14 <Mekkis> http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc1459.txt
13:38:46 <Mekkis> Any client which receives a PING message must respond to <server1>
13:38:46 <Mekkis> (server which sent the PING message out) as quickly as possible with
13:38:46 <Mekkis> an appropriate PONG message to indicate it is still there and alive.
13:39:57 <Wrothmonk> Oh, I didn't know the return message was actually called a PONG
13:47:28 <Mekkis> you should read that RFC

16:45:48 <Brunius--> How's it going, Fourth, mib
16:45:57 <FourthNumber> Pretty well
16:46:06 <mib_3e90xf> well
16:46:13 <Brunius--> Should I play them in order, on the same character?

16:49:35 <dustin> no one around me where I live plays
16:50:35 <Brunius--> There's often more than you think
16:51:02 <dustin> dont know where to look
16:52:30 <Brunius--> If you're in uni/college there might be a group
16:52:46 <dustin> I just graduated.
16:52:50 <Brunius--> Otherwise you could try local gaming stores/clubs
16:53:05 <Brunius--> Even wargaming clubs
16:53:59 <Brunius--> Of course there's online groups, like us here
16:56:00 <Brunius--> Where are you from?
16:56:00 <dustin> ill try the online group. anyone tolerant of newbies
16:56:28 <Brunius--> (You too, FourthNumber)
16:56:43 <Brunius--> Most of us are pretty tolerant

20:31:02 <Steven> im going to go watch the oddyssey
20:31:37 <Brunius> the oddyssey?
20:32:08 <Steven> its a movie
20:33:37 <Steven> well made for TV movie
20:35:37 <Steven> gotta find a way to take a bear as an animal companion
20:35:46 <Steven> for my shapeshift ranger
20:45:45 <Steven> there is no legal way save to take a level of druid
20:53:36 <Steven> the ranger animal companion list is pretty fuckin weak shit
21:12:28 <Avatar> mekkis: when are you travelling
21:13:45 <Steven> soooooooooo bored
21:14:36 <Avatar> thursday night would be ideal for a game
21:15:02 <Avatar> two days and a few hours earlier from now
21:15:38 <Mekkis> on Thursday
21:15:50 <Avatar> what time
21:16:29 <Mekkis> I'll be leaving south canberra in the morning, around 9am
21:17:39 <Avatar> are you in canberra now
21:17:45 <Steven> hmmmm 4 games and i can get a +1 amulet of might fists
21:17:46 <Mekkis> Google says it'll take 7 hours to drive there, but I disagree. It'll take me about 9 hours
21:17:51 <Mekkis> that's right, Avatar
21:18:00 <Avatar> I thought you were in brisbane
21:18:37 <Mekkis> I haven't been in Brisbane for over a week now
21:21:24 <Avatar> a week is a long time
21:22:38 Brunius- has quit (Quit: Andchat user...)
21:40:22 <Mekkis> time for me to level up my characters
21:41:44 <Steven> GO GO!
21:42:19 <Mekkis> well... prelevel them
21:42:30 <Steven> i tried to find a way to get a bear as an animal companion and i failed
21:42:46 <Steven> so, i guess im going to take a badger
21:44:21 <Mekkis> can't you go beastmaster ranger?
21:45:30 <Steven> not now i cant
21:45:49 <Steven> i was mistakenly under the impression rangers could get a bear as an animal companion
21:47:47 <Steven> but a badger will work i guess
21:51:07 <Steven> i think i might have to put his first stat increase into Int so he can understand common
21:51:21 <Mekkis> does that even work?
21:51:29 <Mekkis> I thought it was ruled not to
21:54:40 <Steven> An Intelligence of 3 does not grant animals sentience, the ability to use weapons or tools, speak a language (though they may understand one with a rank in Linguistics; this does not grant literacy)
21:55:05 <Steven> understand, not speak... otherwise that would be broken as shit
21:55:09 <Mekkis> so you don't need to increase int
21:55:53 <Steven> need an int of 3 to be able to put a point into an int based skill
21:56:29 <Steven> because linguistics is not an animal skill
21:57:10 <Steven> animal skills are: Acrobatics* (Dex), Climb* (Str), Escape Artist (Dex), Fly* (Dex), Intimidate (Cha), Perception* (Wis), Stealth* (Dex), Survival (Wis), and Swim* (Str).
21:57:31 <Mekkis> * is class skill?
21:58:36 <Steven> no those are class skills
21:58:57 <Steven> ones without an * are ones they can put ranks into but do not get trained bonus
21:59:19 <Mekkis> isn't Handle Animal good enough for you?
21:59:33 <Steven> my character has a 6cha...
21:59:41 <Steven> lol
22:00:10 <Mekkis> what race has -cha?
22:00:22 <Brunius> dorfg
22:00:38 <Steven> dwarf
22:00:42 <Mekkis> and regardless, enough ranks make the ability irrelevant
22:01:15 <Steven> I put 1 rank into it and dont plan on putting any more
22:01:45 <Steven> so, my animal companion will learn a language and ill communicate that way
22:14:18 <Steven> trying to find if Badger rage progresses
22:14:28 <Steven> or if it a flat 6 rounds
22:14:44 <Brunius> Sigh
22:15:13 <Brunius> "It's too dangerous sitting in the hills that a fire hasn't come near in the last 10 years! You have to come into the city with me and watch a movie!"
22:29:17 <Steven> hmmmmm..... Feats of toughness and armor proficiency light
22:30:23 <Steven> need one more
22:35:12 <Steven> looks like Power Attack it is!
22:44:14 <Steven> my badger is bad ass
22:45:04 <Steven> 42hp, +5/5/5 to attack w/ PA for 1d6+4/1d4+4/1d4+4
22:46:35 <Steven> at 5th level
22:47:38 <Steven> AC 21
22:47:39 <Steven> lol
23:19:06 Sutekh ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
23:26:31 <Steven> well thats a cool spell
23:26:36 <Steven> !spell ironbeard
23:26:46 <Steven> !ironbeard
23:26:58 <diebot> Steven, IRONBEARD transmutation ([]) antipaladin 1, cleric 1, magus 1, paladin 1, ranger 1 1 standard action Range: touch creature touched Comp: V, S Duration: 1 minute/level Save: SR:Save Fortitude negates (harmless); yes (harmless)
23:26:58 <diebot> This spell causes a brushy beard of stiff iron to erupt from the face of a willing target. The ironbeard grants a +1 armor bonus to AC, and this bonus stacks with any armor worn by the creature. The ironbeard may also be used as a weapon equivalent to cold iron armor spikes. The ironbeard makes it difficult to speak, so any spellcasting with a
23:26:58 <diebot> verbal component has a 20% spell failure chance.
23:26:58 * Sutekh waits
23:27:33 <Steven> dwarf spell lol
23:30:59 <Sutekh> THats puzzling. You can play a Shoanti Barbarian, but all of the Totem religon choices arnt available
23:34:26 <Steven> hmmmmmm
23:37:00 * Sutekh is thinking of creating a Sunder specialist Barbarian
23:39:14 <Steven> meh
23:48:37 <Steven> sunder specialists are okay... but usually barbs just want to hit something as hard as they possibly can
23:50:03 <Steven> after all 50-150 damage is nearly always better than reducing an enemies AC or destroying his weapon
23:51:58 <Steven> so until you get your sunder to where you can put all extra damage after breaking the armor through to the person
23:52:11 <Steven> probably just want to flat hit em
