00:05:06 <Mekkis> I think Defunct will appear to be my eidolon this time
07:02:58 <Brunius> Genius
07:03:00 <Brunius> With Spaceshot
07:03:01 <Avatar> oh really
07:03:04 <Avatar> that's right
07:03:07 <Brunius> and that guy from Sydders
07:03:15 <Brunius> On Bairaq
07:03:19 <Brunius> The lawful stupid Paladin
07:03:21 <Avatar> siht, has mekkis played it
07:03:26 <Avatar> yeah, luke parry
07:14:48 <Steven> yeah they are pretty well trained animals
07:15:18 <Steven> all 3 of them let you know when they want to go outside
07:15:59 <Avatar> I put a bunch of ranks into linguistics and have to choose 4 new languages
07:16:03 <Avatar> I'm really running out of decent choices
07:16:24 <Avatar> I can even already lip read
07:16:41 <Avatar> something I should probably communicate to my party more often
07:17:00 <Brunius> Yeah
07:17:07 <Brunius> So I can put silence on my weapon
07:17:27 <Steven> these are honey's languages
07:17:28 <Steven> Common, Celestial, Draconic, Sylvan, Aklo, Goblin, Necril, Abyssal, Infernal, Azlanti, Osiriani, Ancient Osiriani, Sphinx, Shoanti, Treant, Aboleth, Sign Language, Vaarisian, Thessalonian, Aquan, Ignan, Auran, Terran, Jistka, Tekritanin, Elder Thing, Garuda, Vegepygmy
07:17:31 <Brunius> can you take thassilonian?
07:17:35 <Brunius> tean?
07:17:38 <Brunius> tien even
07:17:43 <Avatar> yeah I just took thassilonian
07:17:47 <Avatar> steven that is crazy
07:17:58 <Avatar> what the hell is sphinx
07:18:00 <Avatar> is that a language
07:18:07 <Avatar> and elder thing
07:18:09 <Steven> yes, it is the language of the sphinx
07:18:20 <Avatar> did you make some of those up
07:18:22 <Avatar> I don't recognise them
07:18:33 <Steven> I went to the pathfinder wiki and looked up languages
07:18:43 <Steven> some of them are rare/dead languages
07:19:10 <Steven> and i dont care if i ever use them
07:19:38 <Steven> after i finished learning the elemental languages, i just picked random shit
07:19:48 <Brunius> brb switching to mobile
07:20:01 <Avatar> are the elemental languages more important than dwarven, gnome, halfling
07:20:15 <Steven> well dwarves, gnomes, and halfings all speak common
07:20:33 <Avatar> yeah but sometimes they like to speak in code to each other and that pisses me off a bit
07:20:58 <Avatar> I'm pretty sure I can count on one hand the number of times elemental languages have come up
07:21:21 <Steven> well what would make you more angry... two dwarves talkin shit about you or two earth elementals discussing advanced tactics on how to kill you
07:21:31 <Avatar> well said
07:21:40 <Steven> well i suppose which would be less pleasent to go through?
07:21:51 <Avatar> I won't take aquan, because I'm a witch
07:21:57 <Avatar> :o)
07:22:31 <Steven> i dotn get the reference
07:23:05 <Brunius-> Witches float in water
07:23:06 <Avatar> water melts witches
07:23:20 <Brunius-> Because it rejects their impurities
07:23:26 <Steven> ah... the whole wizard of oz things
07:23:50 <Avatar> yeah snickers is based off that witch
07:24:13 <Steven> well... that means you should pick it up incase you ever run into someone speaking aquan plotting on dousing you in water
07:24:21 <Steven> then... you would know...
07:24:34 <Avatar> maybe, but that can be part of the joke
07:24:48 <Avatar> that's all it is, she doesn't actually melt in water
07:24:56 <Avatar> she just has an aversion to it for no good reason
07:25:11 <Avatar> can't speak the language
07:25:14 <Avatar> etc
07:25:36 <Avatar> maybe I have to rub it in people's faces more that I have green skin
07:25:50 <Brunius-> I think you should
07:25:59 <Avatar> nobody seems to really be able to get it
07:26:28 <Brunius-> I've never seen wizard of oz all the easy through
07:26:43 <Steven> you totaly should
07:26:59 <Brunius-> Sounds boring
07:27:12 <Avatar> what you should have seen was Wicked when it was here
07:27:15 <Brunius-> I should play some sweet pfs instead
07:27:21 <Avatar> that musical was fucking amazing
07:27:28 <Avatar> inspired a character
07:27:31 <Avatar> I mean cmon
07:27:46 <Brunius-> Musicals are silly
07:27:54 <Avatar> not this one
07:28:03 <Avatar> I just got teleport
07:28:04 <Steven> brunius=lost cause
07:28:40 <Avatar> I usually wouldn't think much of musicals either
07:28:51 <Avatar> I thought it would be a bit retarded, I only went because I got free tickets from work
07:29:04 <Avatar> blown away by what it actually was
07:30:06 <Avatar> I can take cloudkill now
07:30:43 <Avatar> and stinking cloud is a 3rd level witch spell too
07:30:46 <Avatar> what is that staff
07:30:58 <Brunius-> Toxins
07:31:05 <Brunius-> Staff of toxins
07:31:12 <Avatar> I don't have 34K gp lying around
07:31:13 <Brunius-> Apg
07:31:19 <Brunius-> I think
07:31:43 <Avatar> so can you just buy the same item out of one book if it's cheaper
07:31:52 <Avatar> how does that work
07:32:51 <Steven> hmmmmm which character to give credit too... 1-5 character
07:33:07 <Steven> i guess my boarderline evil Andoran
07:33:47 <Brunius-> Time to level Bairaq

07:35:22 <***> Buffer Playback...
07:35:23 <***> Playback Complete.
07:35:30 <Steven> one more game and Bari is level 5 woot woot
07:36:05 <Brunius-> Hmm...11k
07:36:19 <Brunius-> I feel like I should buy something
07:36:22 <Steven> then i can take boon companion so my wolvarine isnt completly fucking useless
07:37:44 <Steven> sadly it also means i no longer have a character at level 4
07:37:49 <Avatar> steven what's the rule on pricing with the same item in different books
07:37:54 <Avatar> at different prices
07:38:07 <Steven> I would say.... consult ultimate equipment
07:38:11 <Steven> and go by that price
07:38:30 <Steven> if its not on there consult the forums
07:38:39 <Brunius-> Woot I have a
07:38:48 <Brunius-> Dex bonus
07:39:02 <Steven> holy testical blowfish!
07:39:03 <Avatar> oh there's actually a FAQ for it
07:39:22 <Avatar> the FAQ seems to be wrong too
07:39:36 <Avatar> No, the staves in the Advanced Player's Guide are incorrectly priced and should be double the listed price. These staves have been reprinted in Ultimate Equipment with the correct price.
07:39:50 <Avatar> the one we're talking about is about triple the price in UE
07:39:55 <Avatar> so which is it
07:40:33 <Steven> whatever the listed price in ultimate equipment
07:40:42 <Steven> if its not in ultimate equipment, consult the forums
07:40:53 <Brunius-> A bunch of the ones in the a apg are outlawed
07:41:12 <Brunius-> Are you sure the apg is a legal source for this
07:43:19 <Avatar> I have to assume UE is correct and the FAQ is full of shit
07:43:20 <Brunius-> Average of 1d10 is 6?
07:43:30 <Avatar> 5.5
07:43:44 <Brunius-> How much hp do I get
07:43:54 <Brunius-> I can't get to a computer
07:44:00 <Avatar> paladin?
07:44:01 <Brunius-> To check
07:44:03 <Brunius-> Tracy
07:44:08 <Brunius-> Yeah
07:44:19 <Avatar> 6
07:44:26 <Brunius-> Why is yeah further down than Tracy
07:44:43 <Brunius-> On the list of autocorrect
07:44:54 <Avatar> who is tracy, is she hot
07:44:58 <Brunius-> Thanks Avatar
07:45:03 <Avatar> np
07:45:07 <Brunius-> I don't even know a Tracy

07:54:27 <diebot> Deceptively pleasant looking, a ring of truth bears images of childlike angels and broadly smiling divine creatures holding onto links of a heavy chain. The wearer of this cursed ring is rendered unable to tell a deliberate lie, in either speech or writing. The wearer may simply omit the truth or choose not to communicate, but even then must
07:54:28 <diebot> succeed on a DC 20 Will saving throw to avoid answering a direct question truthfully. The wearer cannot remove the ring unless the magic of the curse is negated. Source: APG

08:01:50 <diebot> Created by the Red Mantis Assassins, this 1-inch red marble statue depicts a tiny praying mantis. When the command word is uttered, the mantis comes to life and moves as its owner instructs, as per a sensor eye from a prying eye spell. The mantis remains animated for up to 9 hours or until it returns to the bearer and replays what it saw, at which
08:01:50 <diebot> point it reverts to statue form for 1 day. Source: Faction Guide

08:02:39 <diebot> This heavy warhammer is capped with steel spikes on both ends of its massive head, and a leather thong prevents it from falling from the wielder's hand. Molvënn is a +3 warhammer that deals both piercing and bludgeoning damage. Yet although it is already a formidable weapon, its true potential is only realized in the hands of a barbarian.
08:02:39 <diebot> Wielded by a barbarian, Molvënn becomes a +5 thundering warhammer. The barbarian gains an additional 1 hit point per barbarian level when raging and can add twice her Strength modifier (instead of half again her Strength modifier) to damage rolls while wielding Molvënn two-handed. Additionally, while Molvënn's wielder is raging, she
08:02:39 <diebot> cannot be disarmed, nor can Molvënn be sundered. Source: AP 34

08:04:18 <diebot> Once per day on command, this bright red and gold cape allows the wearer to use the magic of the dimension door spell. When he disappears, he leaves behind a cloud of harmless gray smoke, appearing in a similar dramatic fashion at his destination. Source: Ultimate Equipment
08:04:30 <Brunius-> Oh
08:04:49 <Avatar> unfettered shirt is another one worth looking at

08:05:23 <Brunius-> That won't stack with armor will it
08:05:27 <Brunius-> The shirt
08:05:51 <Mekkis> especially at season 4
08:05:53 <Mekkis> ja?
08:06:00 <Avatar> is a ring of protection worth it at this point
08:06:03 <Avatar> yeah
08:06:06 <Mekkis> what's your AC?
08:06:09 <Avatar> it's not armour
08:06:10 <Avatar> 24
08:06:14 <Avatar> it's a chest slot wondrous item
08:06:18 <Mekkis> somewhat
08:06:22 <Avatar> somewhere maybe I think
08:06:22 <Mekkis> for deceased, it isn't
08:06:30 <Avatar> yeah not if you have a 13 AC
08:06:34 <Brunius-> Can it be worn with armour
08:06:38 <Avatar> with snickers I've accepted that hits always hit
08:06:38 <Avatar> yes
08:06:50 <Mekkis> same with deceased
08:06:52 <Brunius-> Kewl
08:07:02 <Mekkis> If I were you, I'd get snickers a staff

08:07:43 <Avatar> I really can't figure staves out

08:07:49 <Mekkis> Steven, you were wrong

08:08:16 <Mekkis> not a bad idea
08:08:18 <Avatar> UE didn't look very good at all when it came out
08:08:25 <Avatar> but it has a lot of good shit
08:08:27 <Avatar> she can't cast those spells
08:08:29 <Mekkis> define "very good"
08:08:35 <Mekkis> really?
08:08:39 <Avatar> yeah
08:08:44 <Avatar> staves that cost 3x as much as we want them to
08:08:51 <Mekkis> as in "not on witch list"?
08:08:57 <Avatar> yeah
08:09:13 <Avatar> she has UMD
08:09:20 <Mekkis> all of them?
08:09:20 <Avatar> which I'd actually like to invest in
08:09:37 <Mekkis> what's her UMD?
08:09:38 <Mekkis> +19?
08:09:42 <Avatar> yeah I think so, I am pretty familiar with the witch list and I don't recall any of those
08:09:48 <Avatar> the exception is with the deception patron
08:09:53 <Avatar> UMD is 13
08:10:37 <Avatar> I only know the deception patron because I almost took it
08:10:49 <Avatar> until UM came out at about the same time and I took the time patron instead
08:10:58 <Avatar> which gives me things like haste and teleport

08:11:08 <diebot> Made of twisting wood ornately shaped and carved, this staff allows use of the following spells: • Charm person (1 charge) • Charm monster (2 charges) Source: Ultimate Equipment
08:11:22 <Mekkis> let's take that for example
08:11:53 <Avatar> I get how it works with casting
08:11:54 <Mekkis> you buy it. It has 10 charges
08:11:55 <Avatar> how about recharging
08:12:26 <Mekkis> at the end of the scenario, if you can cast /any/ spell that the staff contains, you can fully recharge it
08:12:54 <Avatar> hang on, so you buy it with 10 charges? but it says 1 and 2 charges there
08:13:07 <Mekkis> casting Charm Person uses 1 charge
08:13:13 <Avatar> ohhhh
08:13:13 <Mekkis> casting Charm Monster uses 2 charges
08:13:28 <Avatar> with a max of 10 charges on every staff?
08:13:35 <Mekkis> essentially, it's giving you 5 more level 4 spell slots
08:13:35 <Mekkis> yeah
08:13:41 <Mekkis> that must be used on Charm Monster
08:13:42 <Avatar> jesus!
08:13:46 <Mekkis> yeah
08:13:49 <Mekkis> They Are Good!
08:13:49 <Avatar> that will be moved to the top of the priority list
08:14:22 <Avatar> UMDing spells into it won't work
08:14:31 <Avatar> I just have to find some witch-friendly staves
08:14:34 <Mekkis> no, but UMDing spells out of it does!
08:14:37 <Mekkis> oh
08:14:38 <Avatar> I'd never use charm
08:14:55 <Avatar> no good UMDing them out if I can't recharge the damn thing
08:15:01 <Mekkis> and it uses your casting stat, and caster level (or the staff's, whichever is higher)
08:15:08 <Avatar> that'll be good if you drop and I can pick up your staff maybe
08:15:16 <Avatar> yeah that part I remember

08:16:34 <Avatar> those are on the witch list
08:16:35 <Mekkis> that's what Deceased has
08:16:44 <Avatar> man what book is that in
08:16:49 <Avatar> UE
08:16:50 <Mekkis> except that he picked it up at the pre-UE clearance sale...
08:17:03 <Avatar> for how much
08:17:05 <Mekkis> (when it cost 12600)
08:17:11 <Mekkis> (see APG)
08:17:11 <Avatar> that's disgusting
08:17:53 <Mekkis> and no, although there are rules for creating your own staves, like there are for creating your own wands, you can't use them in PFS
08:18:10 <Avatar> my armor on Buck is only +1 and not wearing a ring of protection
08:18:14 <Avatar> I could probably serious buff that up
08:18:19 <Avatar> seriously*
08:18:20 <Mekkis> not a bad idea

08:19:12 <Mekkis> Deceased
08:19:13 <Mekkis> SomethingBane Amulet of Mighty Fists,
08:19:38 <Avatar> I could break buck by giving him more damage completely unnecessarily but I'm kind of deciding against it
08:19:49 <Avatar> nobody likes a broken character
08:19:55 <Mekkis> yeah
08:20:01 <Mekkis> I think Defunct will break himself
08:20:17 <Mekkis> probably the only thing I will do is cast Greater Magic Fang on him
08:20:28 <Mekkis> and Disguise Self
08:20:38 <Mekkis> !spell Disguise Self
08:20:42 <diebot> Mekkis, DISGUISE SELF illusion (glamer[]) bard 1, sorcerer/wizard 1, alchemist 1, inquisitor 1, antipaladin 1 1 standard action Range: personal you Comp: V, S Duration: 10 min./level Save: SR:
08:20:42 <diebot> You make yourself--including clothing, armor, weapons, and equipmen--look different. You can seem 1 foot shorter or taller, thin, fat, or in between. You cannot change your creature type (although you can appear as another subtype). Otherwise, the extent of the apparent change is up to you. You could add or obscure a minor feature or look like an
08:20:43 <diebot> entirely different person or gender. The spell does not provide the abilities or mannerisms of the chosen form, nor does it alter the perceived tactile (touch) or audible (sound) properties of you or your equipment. If you use this spell to create a disguise, you get a +10 bonus on the Disguise check. A creature that interacts with the glamer gets
08:20:43 <diebot> a Will save to recognize it as an illusion.
08:22:25 <Avatar> I don't actually know what defunct is
08:22:29 <Mekkis> I'd rather bring Deceased or Itzamna: better to have a front-line entity, right
08:22:45 <Mekkis> you weren't there when Matt made me explain?
08:22:54 <Avatar> yeah but I didn't quite understand
08:23:05 <Avatar> sounded like an animal companion but not?
08:23:11 <Mekkis> Defunct is an imp with Alternate Form (Leopard)
08:23:18 <Mekkis> as an imp, he's an outsider
08:23:25 <Avatar> ohh deceased is the diabolist
08:23:33 <Avatar> that makes it clearer
08:23:41 <Mekkis> he's built using a mishmash of the familiar and animal companion rules
08:24:25 <Mekkis> as an outsider, /Disguise Self/ can make him appear to be anything from a lemure to a Planetar
08:25:04 <Mekkis> oh, and Nightmare levelled up!
08:25:12 <Mekkis> after only a year and a half!
08:25:20 <Avatar> to what level
08:25:27 <Mekkis> 3!
08:25:28 <Mekkis> and 4!
08:25:43 <Mekkis> he got 3.5XP today
08:25:53 <Avatar> how does that work
08:25:57 <Mekkis> well, 2.5XP, then he hit 3 and applied a chronicle sheet
08:26:21 <Mekkis> he played Murder's Mark, and got 2.5XP
08:26:24 <Avatar> what?
08:26:32 <Mekkis> module
08:26:47 <Avatar> modules are worth 3 exp aren't they
08:26:49 <Mekkis> yeah
08:26:55 <Mekkis> he was on slow progression
08:27:02 <Avatar> okay, so 1.5
08:27:10 <Mekkis> Darkwhite said to do it the logical way
08:27:37 <Avatar> what's illogical about it, isn't that how slow track works
08:27:56 <Mekkis> not if you're switching to normal track when you level
08:28:38 <Avatar> don't understand
08:30:19 <Mekkis> I'll explain tomorrow
08:30:42 <Avatar> I'm not going to understand anything tomorrow morning
08:30:47 <Avatar> not a morning person
08:30:50 <Avatar> I don't know how you do it
08:31:04 <Mekkis> coffee
08:32:08 <Mekkis> oh
08:32:13 <Mekkis> I don't need to level Deceased
08:32:25 <Mekkis> I will after tomorrow's session
08:33:16 <Mekkis> Avatar, could you print off http://nl.ti4200.info/~mekkis/Defunct_leopard.pdf and http://nl.ti4200.info/~mekkis/Defunct_spider.pdf please?
08:33:46 <Mekkis> pity
08:33:55 <Avatar> if I can get my printer working again
08:34:04 <Avatar> I don't know what got it upset last time
08:34:11 <Mekkis> Deceased doesn't get to knock over low-level paladins :S
08:46:59 <Mekkis> who was kinevon?
08:47:14 <Avatar> what do you mean
08:47:27 <Avatar> kinevon is kinevon
08:48:15 <Mekkis> did I ran Sanos for you?
08:48:31 <Avatar> yeah
08:49:42 <Avatar> marty is his real name, if that helps?
08:49:52 <Mekkis> I've got it
08:50:01 <Mekkis> he's sent me a message on paizo

08:52:31 <Avatar> !item staff of many rays
08:52:42 <diebot> Avatar, STAFF OF MANY RAYS [moderate evocation and necromancy] CL:11 none 57200gp, 5lb
08:52:49 <diebot> The elaborate swirls and delicate flecks of shining metal adorning the head of this pale wooden shaft make it seem almost as much a long mace as a staff. It allows use of the following spells: • Ray of enfeeblement (1 charge) • Ray of exhaustion (1 charge) • Scorching ray (1 charge) • Enervation (2 charges) • Disintegrate (3
08:52:49 <diebot> charges) Source: Ultimate Equipment
08:52:55 <Avatar> ~57000gp
08:52:59 <Mekkis> no
08:53:07 <Mekkis> not if he makes it his bonded item
08:53:09 <Avatar> according to that
08:53:21 <Avatar> I don't understand bonded item creation rules
08:53:24 <Mekkis> then he can craft it, and pay 50%
08:53:42 <Avatar> where is the rule for that
08:53:51 <Avatar> PFS guide?
08:54:00 <Mekkis> A wizard can add additional magic abilities to his bonded object as if he has the required Item Creation Feats and if he meets the level prerequisites of the feat.
08:54:11 <Mekkis> emphasis on /as if/
08:54:52 <Mekkis> http://paizo.com/pathfinderSociety/faq#v5748eaic9owx
08:55:00 <Avatar> yeah fair enough
08:55:25 <Mekkis> If a caster selects a non-magical item as his arcane bond, and the player later wishes to upgrade it, he may do so for the cost (not price) of the final item as listed in the item's statblock.
08:57:02 <Avatar> crystal clear
08:57:27 <Mekkis> it's a little more than 57200/2 because he has to break his existing bond
08:57:35 <Mekkis> which is 200gp per wizard level
08:58:11 <Mekkis> and I'm /pretty sure/ that when it says 200gp per wizard level, it means 200gp per caster level
08:58:28 <Mekkis> or 200gp per effective wizard level
08:58:47 <Mekkis> otherwise it's an incentive to prestige out of wizard
08:59:01 <Avatar> ug rings of protection are expensive
08:59:35 <Mekkis> 2000*enchantment squared
08:59:53 <Avatar> a +2 is 8000gp
09:00:09 <Mekkis> indeed
09:00:22 <Avatar> oh enchantment squared
09:00:26 <Avatar> I thought that said enchantment required
09:00:31 <Avatar> god I must be tired
09:00:38 <Mekkis> it's midnight
09:00:43 <Mekkis> I'm sleeping now
09:00:47 <Avatar> gg
09:00:51 <Mekkis> I wish prayer beads were cheaper :(
09:00:58 <Mekkis> http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic-items/wondrous-items/wondrous-items/a-b/beads-prayer-strand
09:05:37 <Mekkis> I think Defunct will appear to be my eidolon this time
15:37:32 <Avatar> andrei wants to play that game outside the college tonight
16:22:35 <Avatar> can't work out my printer issue
16:25:33 <Wrothmonk> Have you tried googling the error your getting?
16:25:44 <Avatar> the error I'm getting is "printer offline"
16:25:52 <Wrothmonk> is the printer on?
16:25:57 <Avatar> and the help it gives me is "check your computer screen and printer screen. try clear the error messages and see if that works"
16:26:06 <Avatar> of course the printer is on
16:26:26 <Wrothmonk> seriously thats the help it gives you?
16:26:43 <Avatar> yeah I know hey
16:27:00 <Avatar> whoever wrote that help file should be fired
16:27:46 <Wrothmonk> Wireless or wire printer?
16:27:53 <Avatar> wireless

23:07:16 <Mekkis> Steven, you were wrong
23:07:28 <Brunius-> Maybe I should get these things as pdfs
23:07:43 <Mekkis> not a bad idea
23:07:46 <Avatar> UE didn't look very good at all when it came out

23:08:31 <Avatar> cost in the 40 thousands though
23:08:39 <Brunius-> Mekkis: I'd have to print them all, though
23:08:41 <Mekkis> staves are always expensive
23:08:50 <Mekkis> Brunius-, not really, just the pages you need
23:09:32 <Steven> what was i wrong about this time?
23:09:58 <Mekkis> <Steven> [08:02:54] i think mekkis set it to troll mode
23:10:17 <Steven> it doesnt have a troll mode?
23:10:20 <Steven> if it doesnt you should set one up
23:10:20 <Mekkis> no
23:10:36 <Mekkis> it's the way the algorithm works
23:10:43 <Avatar> need another scenario or two before I can get those big staves
23:11:34 <Mekkis> I'll never play another special at 5-6.
23:12:06 <Mekkis> looks like they always have the hardest time
23:12:24 <Steven> all the best rewards take place at the 12+ tables
23:12:32 <Mekkis> sure
23:12:43 <Mekkis> but not everyone has 12+ characters
23:13:19 <Steven> people need to get on it!
23:13:44 <diebot> Updating database. Queries might be slow and/or incorrect.
23:14:47 <diebot> Updating items.
23:15:21 <Mekkis> Avatar, you should have bought the APG staves :P
23:16:44 <diebot> Items updated. Updating spells.

23:21:21 <diebot> Have a nice day.
23:22:05 <Mekkis> Avatar, you wanted that database?
23:22:26 <Steven> so, i been thinkin... we need to talk ballig into running some 7-11 games for us
23:22:34 <Mekkis> why Ballig?
23:22:41 <Mekkis> as opposed to, say, me?
23:22:56 <Steven> because you have characters in the correct range
23:23:02 <Mekkis> oh
23:23:04 <Steven> i dont know about balligs characters
23:23:11 <Ballig> I have two characters in the 7-11 range
23:23:11 <Mekkis> and balls doesn't?
23:24:06 <Steven> i dont care who runs it, except me, i dont want to run them right now lol
23:24:39 <Steven> But yeah, we coudl do fury of th efiend, forbidden furance of forgotten koor, king of the storval stairs, and feast of sigils...
23:25:37 <Steven> i would be up to running high end material once radcon is over
23:26:19 <Mekkis> I can prep something...
23:26:32 <Mekkis> what haven't you played?
23:27:22 <Steven> But yeah, we coudl do fury of the fiend, forbidden furance of forgotten koor, king of the storval stairs, and feast of sigils...
23:27:44 <Mekkis> is that stuff you haven't played, or stuff you'd be running?
23:28:00 <Steven> thats the stuff i havent played
23:28:14 <Mekkis> ah
23:28:16 <Steven> thats 7-11
23:28:22 <Mekkis> you've been playing too much stuff
23:28:28 <Steven> i have a bunch of things i can GM, but i dont want to GM anything till after Radcon
23:28:38 <Steven> as i have a lot of things going on in the next two weeks
23:30:58 <Steven> after radcon though ill have more free time and would be agreeable to running some games for everyone
23:31:12 <Mekkis> are there any other 7-11s you haven't played?
23:31:33 <Steven> nope, those are the ones i havent played
23:32:12 <Mekkis> be careful, Steven...
23:32:26 <Steven> I REFUSE TO BE CAREFUL!
23:32:32 <Mekkis> looks like you'll burn out if you're running through scenarios at this pace
23:33:03 <Steven> I have burnt out of scenarios to play, theres like 20 i havent played yet
23:33:57 <Steven> thats why when i go down to the shop, 95% of the time im GMing or playing for no credit
23:34:56 <Steven> my buddy walter is the exact same as i am except with gming...
23:35:19 <Steven> its a problem with having two game days a week
23:35:34 <Mekkis> yes
23:36:02 <Mekkis> you could try what Flood does, and run something else, on alternate weeks
23:36:05 <Steven> I dont care though, i like playing or GMing, and i often play for no credit
23:36:48 <Steven> we have a core group of players, like 5-10 who show up on both days, but we have 15 people who only go to one or the other
23:37:05 <Mekkis> always the same shop?
23:37:32 <Steven> i mean 15 people each game day that only turn up for that time slot
23:37:50 <Steven> yeah, we are promoting a new shop in moscow
23:37:55 <Steven> there is only one shop in Pullman
23:37:56 <Mekkis> wow!
23:38:22 <Mekkis> that's one far travel. And Darkwhite's only trying 700km awau...
23:38:42 <Steven> and we have a guy that used to drive over from moscow to pullman, that we have handed off the reins to
23:38:46 <Steven> moscow, idaho
23:38:49 <Mekkis> oh
23:38:50 <Steven> its like 8 miles away
23:39:05 <Mekkis> not Russia?
23:39:14 <Steven> nope
23:39:23 <Steven> there are like 40 or so cities in the US named moscow
23:40:29 <Steven> anyways, yeah, we tried setting one up at a shop called safari pearl
23:40:43 <Steven> but they wanted to charge 4 dollars per table for the GMs and then 1 dollar per player to sit at the table
23:41:00 <Steven> so... roughly 8-10 per table
23:41:09 <Steven> and we were like... um.... eat a dick
23:41:19 <Steven> and we never played there again
23:41:41 <Steven> then a new gaming shop opened up
23:41:47 <Steven> and we were like game day?
23:41:59 <Steven> and they said Yes please, do you mind if we sit at some tables and play with you
23:42:06 <Steven> and i was like, please do
23:42:09 <Steven> no charge
23:42:14 <Mekkis> fair enough
23:42:27 <Steven> so, now we are getting the Moscow scene set up
23:42:49 <Steven> and that will save the group of moscow guys about half an hour each time they want to game
23:42:57 <Steven> which is good
23:43:05 <Steven> and allows us to throw events over there as well
23:43:09 <Mekkis> did you go to the prerelease?
23:43:19 <Steven> nope
23:43:25 <Steven> i didnt have the money
23:43:30 <Steven> and im so fuckin bummed about it
23:43:48 <Mekkis> was it good?
23:44:00 <Steven> I wouldnt know.. i didnt get to go
23:44:09 <Mekkis> I wasn't particularly impressed with the set
23:44:58 <Steven> I like some of the gruul stuff.
23:45:08 <Steven> didnt really like the bloodrush thing
23:45:25 <Steven> where you discard and then shit gets big EoT
23:45:45 <Steven> but borborymogos mechanic was pretty kick ass
23:46:08 <Mekkis> it looked largely uninspiring
23:46:11 <Steven> i plan on abusing the hell out of that in EDH
23:46:52 <Steven> pretty much... they are setting up one or two guilds to be the favorites
23:47:17 <Steven> Boros, azorious or however its spelled
23:47:31 <Steven> maybe one other
23:47:45 <Steven> control magic, and lifegain burn....
23:47:46 <Steven> yay
23:48:07 <Mekkis> ortzov?
23:48:27 <Mekkis> Steven, you played or run Race for Runecarved key?
23:48:28 <Steven> meh....
23:48:30 <Steven> i dunno
23:48:35 <Steven> depends on how people tinker with it
23:48:53 <Steven> No, i have not played or run it... however i am aware of what happens in it
23:49:33 <Mekkis> what about other specials?
23:50:04 <Steven> ive played/GM'd the other specials
23:50:32 <Mekkis> do you think that tier 5-6 is not very enjoyable?
23:51:19 <Steven> I should warn you... I have never played/GM'd a special thats been ran as written
23:51:54 <Steven> we have always changed little things in them
23:52:05 <Mekkis> little things?
23:52:07 <Mekkis> example?
23:52:09 <Steven> like cut out irrelevant storyline
23:52:13 <Steven> changed final boss encounters
23:52:19 <Steven> you know... little things
23:52:22 <Steven> lol
23:52:31 <Steven> okay, year of the shadow lodge
23:52:37 <Mekkis> how did you run Blood under Absalom?
23:53:26 <Steven> final 'fight' we split into two groups, one group fought the nasty dragon outside that was buffed to hell and back
23:53:49 <Steven> and one went inside to fight the... whatever the hell it was person
23:53:55 <Mekkis> makes sense
23:54:17 <Steven> in the normal mode each table fights/bypasses the dragon
23:54:29 <Steven> and then goes inside to fight the guy inside
23:54:35 <Mekkis> I know
23:54:51 <Steven> instead we fought a dragon with 2200hp
23:54:57 <Mekkis> who decided that?
23:55:07 <Mekkis> and didn't someone just say SoD off?
23:55:31 <Steven> with CL 20 Stoneskin, and a few nasty spell like abilities
23:55:34 <Steven> nope, we were all for it
23:55:40 <Steven> it was an event customized for us
23:55:48 <Mekkis> who customised it?
23:55:56 <Mekkis> and by SoD off, I mean Save or Die
23:56:40 <Steven> Kyle Elliot and the VC at the time, with some imput from mike brock, SKR, and MM
23:57:04 <Mekkis> nice. why didn't they release it like that?
23:57:09 <Steven> the vc at the time was named jarvis i think
23:57:58 <Steven> because it was originally designed to be run for 10-however many tables
23:58:20 <Steven> like at gen con where this year they are going to do 150 tables all at once
23:58:53 <Steven> if they did it how we did it, you would spend roughly 4 hours completing one turn
23:59:21 <Mekkis> is that stuff available?
23:59:28 <Steven> the way we did it only works with less than 30-40 people
23:59:38 <Steven> you mean the customized version of the fights?
23:59:42 <Steven> no, it was a one time thing
23:59:51 <Mekkis> ah
