49:23 <Valdamon> Hello
53:50 <Falang> Yo.
54:55 <Valdamon> Howsit going?
58:00 <Falang> good here, watched the new game of thrones episode
04:54 <Valdamon> Got to hand it to Jaime.
04:59 <Valdamon> He can really handle himself
05:22 <Valdamon> Should change his name from Kingslayer to Ser Jaime the Handsome
05:49 <Valdamon> There are so many puns.
12:45 <Falang> I think that's how the ladies know him already
12:59 <Falang> or at least, his sister! 
14:58 <Hydrazine> Only his sister, really.
18:18 <Valdamon> I was refering to what happened to him at the end of the most recent episode ;)
22:25 <Falang> question: does Mobilty affect AoO's due to you executing maneuvers like Trip or Bullrush?
24:49 <Hydrazine> Um. Yes and no.
25:20 <Hydrazine> It affects AoOs do to movement through enemies threat range.
26:02 <Hydrazine> So if you bullrush past a hostile, without the imp. bullrush feat, mobility would affect the AoO from the guy you're walking past, but not the guy you're trying to bullrush.
38:47 <Hydrazine> Does that sufficiently answer the queston?
38:53 <Hydrazine> question even.
50:54 <Steven> i am always around

06:18 <Ashar> It did, thanks.
06:25 Ashar is now known as Falang
13:17 <Farang> I don't think DS did that well, but I did play it, a damn fine engine for it's day
14:11 <Farang> I'm eagerly awaiting my Wasteland 2, Project Eternity, and Torment games to be finished though!

42:48 <Farang> oh come on, these are solid teams of highly experienced professionals that have been making the best games on the rpg market for 30 years. They'll come through and it'll be the best games that came out that year when they do.

46:34 <diebot> This leather vest is fitted with a number of pockets that are useful for storing the ingredients necessary for alchemical tinkering. The main ability of this vest, however, is to lessen the debilitating effects of an alchemist's mutagen. While under the effect of any type of mutagen, the wearer takes no penalty to mental ability scores from that

47:33 <diebot> These polished steel vambraces grant a +1 deflection bonus to AC. Once per day, as an immediate action, if the wearer has at least one hand free, when he would normally be hit with an attack from a ranged weapon, he may deflect it with the bracers, taking no damage from it, as if he had the Deflect Arrows feat.

48:06 <diebot> These pale, elegant-looking leather gloves have blood-red stitching on the fingers-which bears a startling resemblance to blood-encrusted fingernails. Three times per day, the wearer can use vampiric touch and bleed. If the wearer uses vampiric touch and holds the charge, the charge dissipates if the gloves are removed. Though vampiric touch is
48:07 <diebot> normally a touch attack, the wearer may instead use that ability as a ranged touch attack with a range of 30 feet, but only against a dying target or a target suffering from a bleed effect. When using vampiric touch in this way, the wearer may hold the charge on a missed ranged touch attack. If the wearer is suffering from a bleed effect, he may
48:07 <diebot> expend one use of vampiric touch to end the bleed effect. Source: Ultimate Equipment
49:33 <niconorsk> Man, do want that vest
08:37 <Mekkis> wow
08:41 <Mekkis> I know what I'm AMDing now

09:14 <Mekkis> which one?
09:21 <Avatar> the staff
09:24 <Mekkis> yeah
09:28 <Avatar> after reading the description you provided
09:28 <Mekkis> I am so AMDing it

09:35 <Mekkis> !item staff of curses
09:36 <diebot> Mekkis, STAFF OF CURSES [moderate transmutation] CL:9 none 43500gp, 5lb
09:37 <diebot> This gnarled wooden staff is bedecked with broken charms and burnt fetishes that were once used to ward against bad luck, but now are in shambles. The staff allows use of the following spells: • Blindness/deafness (1 charge) • Ill omen (1 charge; Advanced Player's Guide) • Baleful polymorph (2 charges) • Bestow curse (2 charges) In
09:37 <diebot> addition, the staff of curses is a +1/+1 quarterstaff, and whenever the wielder strikes a creature with the staff, he can expend one charge to cause the creature to become cursed for a number of rounds equal to the number of charges remaining in the staff. While this curse persists, the creature takes a -2 penalty on saving throws from spells cast
09:37 <diebot> from the staff and a -2 penalty to AC against any attacks made by the staff. Source: Ultimate Equipment
09:47 <Avatar> for the bargain price of only 43.5K
10:14 <Mekkis> it's worth it!
10:43 <Steven> sup
10:56 <Mekkis> I'm gonna AMD me a staff
11:01 <Mekkis> well
11:12 <Mekkis> strictly speaking, my FAMILIAR will be AMDing the staff

14:04 <Mekkis> ja
14:12 <Avatar> can you get tiny sized staves
14:23 <Mekkis> of course
14:26 <Mekkis> I have Craft Staff
14:34 <Avatar> oh so this isn't in PFS
14:46 <Mekkis> (well, I will have it at level 11)
14:49 <Mekkis> nope
14:56 <Avatar> did you guys see the CAMPAIGN CHANGING announcement
14:59 <Mekkis> no
15:03 <Mekkis> link?
15:15 <Avatar> http://paizo.com/threads/rzs2po8g?Campaign-changing-announcements-being-made
15:36 <Steven> i know nothing of these changes!
15:44 <Avatar> we know
15:48 * Steven walks away briskly.
15:58 <Mekkis> time to see if I can get Flood drunk
16:06 <Avatar> I am thinking of quickly making an osirion character tonight
16:36 <Steven> do it up sir
16:55 <Mekkis> I should run something tomorrow morning
17:09 <Avatar> is osirion not going
17:17 <Avatar> I only wanted to do it because I thought osirion was going
17:23 <Mekkis> I don't think it CAN
17:41 <Avatar> why not
17:48 <Mekkis> simply because there's a thingy that says "If you take this, you CANNOT change your faction. Ever."
17:59 <Brunius> Ha
18:06 <Avatar> they will have something in place for that
18:09 <Avatar> obv
18:23 <niconorsk> Oh yeah, I'm one of those things
18:31 <Avatar> I don't particularly like osirion but the mechanical benefits for it are crazy
18:40 <Mekkis> I am formally Darvesh, the Risen...ummm
18:56 <Mekkis> but now my title was stripped and I represent.. ummm... Cheliax?
19:35 <Mekkis> I'm putting my money on Lantern Lodge going
19:40 <Steven> so wanna start up a betting pool?
19:48 <Mekkis> sure
20:04 <Mekkis> I'll throw in a Trained Eye boon to the effect that Lantern Lodge is going
20:23 <Mekkis> Steven, throw in a Wayang
20:29 <Steven> not gonna happen
20:41 <Steven> i cant bet, as there is no way to verify i dont already know the answer.
21:10 <Brunius> I would bet, but there's the risk I'd win
22:03 <Steven> whoever correctly guesses BOTH factions gets to choose a game they want run by, well i guess me.
22:15 <Steven> since everyone else is betting.
23:02 <Mekkis> ummm
23:08 <Mekkis> what am I supposed to do with spare boons?
23:12 <Avatar> I am not betting, I am going with the rumours
23:18 <niconorsk> Usual hedging policy, bet on the ones I don't want to go: Osirion and Sczarni
23:40 <Steven> thats just what im throwing in the pot, whoever guesses right, ill run whatever game they want.
23:53 <Steven> excepting of course eyes of the ten.
23:57 <Mekkis> I'd go Lantern Lodge and Grand Lodge - if you want me to choose two
24:31 <Avatar> Brunius: what
24:49 <Brunius> I have to get rid of some boons that I'm never gonna get around to using
24:58 <Mekkis> Brunius, got a Wayang?
25:00 <Brunius> Maybe I'll mail them to Mort-
25:04 <Mekkis> Though Brock DID say two- maybe three
25:14 <Avatar> he said 2 in that post
25:29 <Mekkis> he said maybe three, when talking to Myra
25:52 <Avatar> lantern lodge and taldor
26:07 <Avatar> yeah that was 3 weeks ago man
26:09 <Avatar> this was TODAY
27:57 <Avatar> I do however believe there will be a new, as yet unnamed faction, where the new venture captain will be Ulzef the slave trader
28:12 <Avatar> (I don't know his last name)
30:44 <Steven> i think the Slave Trader IS his last name
31:35 <Avatar> could be

54:57 <Avatar> Falang: ulzef's character Ulzef is a player who is trying to start his own faction
55:11 <Avatar> and he's recruited quite a few other characters to his cause
09:21 <Steven> we recruited a whole pirate crew at the shop
09:44 <Steven> also converted 5 people to the worship of besmara
39:07 <Falang> oh. huh.
39:11 <Falang> pirates eh?  sounds fun.
39:47 <Falang> but PFS doesn't allow evil, other than WBG apparently, so.. how does that work?
40:05 <Brunius> Pirate != evil
45:38 <Steven> pirates are not always evil
45:49 <Steven> but usually they are chaotic
51:21 <Falang> stealing is technically evil. you can't be a pirate without stealing.
51:27 <Falang> unless you're just not very good at it.
52:57 <Falang> Unless you're stealing from evil people?  slavers?
53:07 <Brunius> So in a country with a gini coefficient of say 0.01, it would be evil to steal?
54:16 <Falang> almost total equality?
54:59 <Falang> You'd be upsetting the equality at the very least, for those you stole from, that's not exactly a nice thing to do in such a civilization.
55:24 <Falang> not to mention the psychological damage to victims, terror and fear of being killed, etc. PTSD.
56:27 <Falang> it's about harm to the victims, not the value of what you stole to you. harming innocent people, even psychologically by terrorizing them is pretty nasty business.
57:20 <Nornok> You can steal without terrorizing people you know
09:48 <Steven> stealing is technically not evil.  its unlawful.
26:47 <Falang> you can't PIRATE without terrorizing people.
26:58 <Falang> that's the evil part.
27:55 <Falang> and while stealing now an again might not be evil, doing it a lot almost certainly would be, you're harming people financially at the very least, people that quite possibly can't afford to be stolen from.. sounds like you're only looking at it from the perspective of the pirate.
28:31 niconorsk ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
30:44 Nornok has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
39:49 <Nornok> Sure, most pirates are going to be evil, but Golarion allows for good pirates. The privateers of Andoran is a prime example of this
40:36 <Nornok> Plus, you started by saying stealing is technically evil, and thats where I disagree
46:19 <Avatar> stealing is not technically unlawful
46:26 <Falang> if robbing people isn't evil, then it's certainly immoral.
47:38 <Falang> piracy isn't just stealing, so I should have phrased that better. 
48:49 <Falang> is piracy a victimless crime? is nobody hurt in the process? no innocents? no guard that was 'just doing his job and wants to go home to his wife and 3 children'
51:52 <Nornok> Sure, and the individual act may be evil, but it may be a case of the ends justify the means, greater good and all that
52:29 <Nornok> Which is why you can be a non-evil pirate and why it can work in PFS
54:09 <Nornok> Btw, I'm not arguing for piracy in general, but if someone's character concept is inspired by Wesley from the Princess Bride, who am I to stop them
13:09 <Falang> if a shipping company is put out of business because you stole all their goods, people lose their jobs, maybe their homes, their lives are destroyed... that's harm.  
14:36 <Falang> Sure it's justifiable I guess, but... what happens to all those good soldiers that come hunting you after you're successful?  the king's knights etc. men of valor and honor hunting you down.  not evil to kill them?  I just think it's all a very very slippery slope.
15:18 <Steven> slippery slope or not, its not evil, its just not a nice profession
26:31 <Falang> It's not a profession at all, it's a criminal enterprise.
33:27 <Steven> right... its both.
50:03 <Avatar> are you guys talking about the new pirate faction
50:32 <Steven> that would just be awesoe
50:35 <Steven> awesome
15:50 <Falang> I wouldn't mind seeing actual evil factions! Bring on the Drow!
15:58 <Falang> Gangs of kobold sorcerers!
16:52 <Falang> orc hordes!
18:55 <Steven> sorry to dissapoint falang but brock recently stated in the public forums the society is goin the other way
20:34 <Falang> oh well
27:22 <Proquar> sorry for coming into the conversation late, but, what were the options?

32:07 <niconorsk> Ah, there is the arcane blast/arcane shield option
33:51 <niconorsk> Obviously both options require to level up unless you happen to have those feats already

58:28 <diebot> gain an enhancement bonus equal to the level of the expended spell on a single Craft or Profession check (regardless of the amount of time needed to make the check). Source: Ultimate Equipment
58:56 <Mekkis> seems extremely expensive for what it does
00:20 <niconorsk> I agree, I wouldn't get it, but then I would just get a bunch of scrolls and remake my spellbook.
00:23 <Farang> I think that about most magic items, seems like you could buy a damn village or two for the price of a portable hole
00:46 <Mekkis> you can. But what can you do with a village?
00:47 <Farang> possibly a town
01:00 <Farang> well a village would bring you steady income
01:06 <Mekkis> really? Why?
01:10 <Farang> if you own all the property
01:15 <Farang> you could probably levy taxes too
01:42 <Mekkis> last I checked, most towns, cities, states and countries are struggling to break even
01:45 <Mekkis> even with taxes
02:21 <Farang> is there a quarterly report on the economy of PFS? :)
02:37 <Mekkis> not to my knowledge
02:56 <Mekkis> I have played a Kingmaker game, and it is pretty clear that the kingdom's been struggling to break even
03:28 <Mekkis> well... every bit of revenue is being spent on development
03:31 <Farang> a few half-orc tax collectors will no doubt straighten that out in due course.
04:05 <Mekkis> given that a skilled labourer earns about 10gp on a good week...
04:17 <Farang> Better yet, I'd make it a haven for Adventurers and fullfil all their equipment and *banking* needs!
04:19 <Mekkis> tax collection isn't going to help that much
06:16 <Farang> well the half-orc part was a joke
06:39 <Farang> hire a wizard and use animated skeletons as manual labor
07:10 <Steven> so.... what we wanna do
08:51 <Farang> Hmm.. that's interesting. summon monster doesn't say what happens to the monster when the spell ends
09:10 <Mekkis> pretty sure it does
11:53 <Farang> maybe they list it in a more general Summoning section, but Summon Monster I doesn't say, at least not the one you have online.
14:45 <Farang> odd, actually it doesn't say it in the PF core book description either
15:16 <Mekkis> read chapter 9, magic, specifically conjuration, particularly [summoning] subschool
16:48 <Farang> ah yes, that's better.
27:11 <Farang> kingmaker, that sounds fun
27:16 <Farang> wouldn't mind trying that out.
34:37 <Steven> well find a group to play with mang
35:06 <Steven> or start up a campaign here
35:41 <Steven> I dont have the time to adjudicate another campaign
39:24 <Steven> Wednesday PFS@shop, Thursday RotRL, Friday/Saturday a game in here, Sunday PFS@shop
14:44 Valdamon ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
18:57 <Farang> hey Vald
20:09 <Valdamon> Hello
20:19 <Valdamon> Sorry, was watching Robot Combat League
34:55 <Steven> dont applogize for that.  that show rocks... sometimes.
35:14 <Valdamon> That show is full of crushing goodness
40:11 <Farang> I've been enjoying the first few episodes of King of the Nerds
45:07 <Steven> !throw 1d20+40
45:10 <diebot> Steven, 1d20+40: [1d20=8] 48
51:08 <Valdamon> I couldn't get into king of the nerds. Too few of them knew how to play chess to really be nerds
56:09 <Steven> enchilladas are almost done
56:26 <Steven> then i shall devour them...
56:35 <Steven> chicken enchillada goodness shall be mine!
58:51 <Farang> chess is certainly nerdy, but nobody really bothers with it anymore. There are much more complex and enjoyable games out there.
59:12 <Farang> it would have been a much more interesting show if it was more international
59:53 <Steven> hmmmm what to play what to play...
00:39 <Steven> !rand comp ps ps2 ps3 xbox 360 snes nes
00:45 <dicebot> Steven, random: ps
00:52 <Steven> alrighty

01:16 <Steven> oh wait thats right my ps broke cause a dog knocked it off the shelf
01:27 <Steven> !rand comp ps2 ps3 xbox 360 snes nes
01:28 <dicebot> Steven, random: xbox
01:36 <Steven> luckily my xbox still works
06:57 <Mekkis> e4
08:04 <Farang> you sank my battleship!
12:03 <Valdamon> Its ok. The battleship is big and clunky. He'll never find your frigate
13:32 <Brunius> Steven, you around?
14:53 <Valdamon> With all these games getting remade.. they should remake Dark Sun: Shattered Lands
16:18 <Valdamon> Keep everything the same, the encounters, the story.. just update the graphics and fix the bugs.
33:54 Valdamon has quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
50:11 <Steven> i am always around
54:32 <Brunius> Nope, Skype decided not to send it
54:39 <Brunius> Wanna retry with both of us online?
12:34 <Farang> I don't think DS did that well, but I did play it, a damn fine engine for it's day
13:28 <Farang> I'm eagerly awaiting my Wasteland 2, Project Eternity, and Torment games to be finished though!
29:22 <Mekkis> Farang, you put money towards /software projects/ on /kickstarter/ ?!
34:08 <Mekkis> are you crazy?
34:27 <Mekkis> !item Deathwatch eyes
34:29 <diebot> Mekkis, DEATHWATCH EYES [faint necromancy] CL:1 eyes 2000gp, 0lb
34:30 <diebot> These blood red crystal lenses fit snugly over the wearer's eyes. The wearer gains the constant effects of the deathwatch spell. Source: Ultimate Equipment
42:05 <Farang> oh come on, these are solid teams of highly experienced professionals that have been making the best games on the rpg market for 30 years. They'll come through and it'll be the best games that came out that year when they do.
43:19 <Brunius> Cheers Steven
43:56 <Farang> I want to see pathfinder spelljammer, never got to play that...
45:49 <Mekkis> !item vest of stable mutation
45:51 <diebot> Mekkis, VEST OF STABLE MUTATION [moderate abjuration] CL:8 chest 20000gp, 2lb
45:51 <diebot> This leather vest is fitted with a number of pockets that are useful for storing the ingredients necessary for alchemical tinkering. The main ability of this vest, however, is to lessen the debilitating effects of an alchemist's mutagen. While under the effect of any type of mutagen, the wearer takes no penalty to mental ability scores from that
45:51 <diebot> mutagen. Source: Ultimate Equipment
46:06 <Mekkis> !item impossible bottle
46:08 <diebot> Mekkis, IMPOSSIBLE BOTTLE [faint abjuration and transmutation] CL:5 none 20000gp, 1lb
46:08 <diebot> The description is too long to send over IRC. View http://nl.ti4200.info/vpsirc/items/impossible_bottle.html
46:47 <Mekkis> !item vambraces of the genie
46:49 <diebot> Mekkis, VAMBRACES OF DEFENSE [faint abjuration] CL:5 wrists 6000gp, 3lb
46:50 <diebot> These polished steel vambraces grant a +1 deflection bonus to AC. Once per day, as an immediate action, if the wearer has at least one hand free, when he would normally be hit with an attack from a ranged weapon, he may deflect it with the bracers, taking no damage from it, as if he had the Deflect Arrows feat. Source: Ultimate Equipment
47:22 <Mekkis> !item vampiric gloves
47:23 <diebot> Mekkis, VAMPIRIC GLOVES [moderate necromancy] CL:5 hands 18000gp, 0lb
47:23 <diebot> These pale, elegant-looking leather gloves have blood-red stitching on the fingers-which bears a startling resemblance to blood-encrusted fingernails. Three times per day, the wearer can use vampiric touch and bleed. If the wearer uses vampiric touch and holds the charge, the charge dissipates if the gloves are removed. Though vampiric touch is
47:24 <diebot> normally a touch attack, the wearer may instead use that ability as a ranged touch attack with a range of 30 feet, but only against a dying target or a target suffering from a bleed effect. When using vampiric touch in this way, the wearer may hold the charge on a missed ranged touch attack. If the wearer is suffering from a bleed effect, he may
47:24 <diebot> expend one use of vampiric touch to end the bleed effect. Source: Ultimate Equipment
48:50 <niconorsk> Man, do want that vest
05:22 DailyHero ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
07:54 <Mekkis> wow
07:54 DailyHero has quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
07:58 <Mekkis> I know what I'm AMDing now
08:04 <Avatar> those are some pretty good items
08:05 <Mekkis> the &staff of curses
08:21 <Avatar> that looks like a pretty good item
08:30 <Mekkis> which one?
08:38 <Avatar> the staff
08:41 <Mekkis> yeah
08:45 <Avatar> after reading the description you provided
08:45 <Mekkis> I am so AMDing it
08:46 <Mekkis> well
08:48 <Avatar> I am convinced
08:52 <Mekkis> !item staff of curses
08:53 <diebot> Mekkis, STAFF OF CURSES [moderate transmutation] CL:9 none 43500gp, 5lb
08:54 <diebot> This gnarled wooden staff is bedecked with broken charms and burnt fetishes that were once used to ward against bad luck, but now are in shambles. The staff allows use of the following spells: • Blindness/deafness (1 charge) • Ill omen (1 charge; Advanced Player's Guide) • Baleful polymorph (2 charges) • Bestow curse (2 charges) In
08:54 <diebot> addition, the staff of curses is a +1/+1 quarterstaff, and whenever the wielder strikes a creature with the staff, he can expend one charge to cause the creature to become cursed for a number of rounds equal to the number of charges remaining in the staff. While this curse persists, the creature takes a -2 penalty on saving throws from spells cast
08:54 <diebot> from the staff and a -2 penalty to AC against any attacks made by the staff. Source: Ultimate Equipment
09:04 <Avatar> for the bargain price of only 43.5K
09:30 <Mekkis> it's worth it!
10:00 <Steven> sup
10:12 <Mekkis> I'm gonna AMD me a staff
10:18 <Mekkis> well
10:28 <Mekkis> strictly speaking, my FAMILIAR will be AMDing the staff
10:39 <Steven> amd?
10:45 <Mekkis> Abuse magic device
11:05 <Mekkis> +32 to AMD
12:06 <Steven> there is no amd greater than what i told nico
12:35 <Avatar> what is AMD
12:50 <Avatar> oh abuse
13:04 <Avatar> what is your familiar
13:11 <Mekkis> faerie dragon
13:17 <Avatar> tiny?
13:21 <Mekkis> ja
13:29 <Avatar> can you get tiny sized staves
13:39 <Mekkis> of course
13:42 <Mekkis> I have Craft Staff
13:51 <Avatar> oh so this isn't in PFS
14:03 <Mekkis> (well, I will have it at level 11)
14:06 <Mekkis> nope
14:13 <Avatar> did you guys see the CAMPAIGN CHANGING announcement
14:16 <Mekkis> no
14:20 <Mekkis> link?
14:32 <Avatar> http://paizo.com/threads/rzs2po8g?Campaign-changing-announcements-being-made
14:53 <Steven> i know nothing of these changes!
15:01 <Avatar> we know
15:05 * Steven walks away briskly.
15:14 <Mekkis> time to see if I can get Flood drunk
15:23 <Avatar> I am thinking of quickly making an osirion character tonight
15:53 <Steven> do it up sir
16:11 <Mekkis> I should run something tomorrow morning
16:26 <Avatar> is osirion not going
16:34 <Avatar> I only wanted to do it because I thought osirion was going
16:39 <Mekkis> I don't think it CAN
16:58 <Avatar> why not
17:04 <Mekkis> simply because there's a thingy that says "If you take this, you CANNOT change your faction. Ever."
17:16 <Brunius> Ha
17:23 <Avatar> they will have something in place for that
17:26 <Avatar> obv
17:40 <niconorsk> Oh yeah, I'm one of those things
17:48 <Avatar> I don't particularly like osirion but the mechanical benefits for it are crazy
17:56 <Mekkis> I am formally Darvesh, the Risen...ummm
18:12 <Mekkis> but now my title was stripped and I represent.. ummm... Cheliax?
18:51 <Mekkis> I'm putting my money on Lantern Lodge going
18:57 <Steven> so wanna start up a betting pool?
19:05 <Mekkis> sure
19:20 <Mekkis> I'll throw in a Trained Eye boon to the effect that Lantern Lodge is going
19:39 <Mekkis> Steven, throw in a Wayang
19:46 <Steven> not gonna happen
19:58 <Steven> i cant bet, as there is no way to verify i dont already know the answer.
20:27 <Brunius> I would bet, but there's the risk I'd win
21:20 <Steven> whoever correctly guesses BOTH factions gets to choose a game they want run by, well i guess me.
21:32 <Steven> since everyone else is betting.
22:19 <Mekkis> ummm
22:25 <Mekkis> what am I supposed to do with spare boons?
22:29 <Avatar> I am not betting, I am going with the rumours
22:35 <niconorsk> Usual hedging policy, bet on the ones I don't want to go: Osirion and Sczarni
22:57 <Steven> thats just what im throwing in the pot, whoever guesses right, ill run whatever game they want.
23:10 <Steven> excepting of course eyes of the ten.
23:14 <Mekkis> I'd go Lantern Lodge and Grand Lodge - if you want me to choose two
23:48 <Avatar> Brunius: what
24:06 <Brunius> I have to get rid of some boons that I'm never gonna get around to using
24:14 <Mekkis> Brunius, got a Wayang?
24:17 <Brunius> Maybe I'll mail them to Mort-
24:20 <Mekkis> Though Brock DID say two- maybe three
24:31 <Avatar> he said 2 in that post
24:46 <Mekkis> he said maybe three, when talking to Myra

42:58 <Mekkis> Steven, he did?
44:01 <Avatar> we all know he lies though
55:51 <kapow> so has my bet been registered
55:59 <kapow> taldor and lantern lodge to get the axe
56:22 <Mekkis> heh... that would be kicking Myra and John in the arse
56:48 <kapow> If grandlodge goes I will be stuffed XP
56:56 <Mekkis> what did John say he'd give up Taldor for?
56:58 <kapow> have to reallocate all of my characters
57:13 <Mekkis> shouldn't have put all your eggs in one basket
57:32 <Mekkis> I'm afraid that Andoran might get the axe though
03:34 <kapow> I don't think that they will
12:55 <kapow> am out night

50:22 <illakilla> or RPboardgame
50:48 <Mekkis> something like that
50:59 <illakilla> warhammer ?
51:06 <Mekkis> D&D
51:08 <Mekkis> and Pathfinder
51:16 <illakilla> is pathfinder a board game or online?
51:28 <Mekkis> it's a fork of D&D
51:37 <illakilla> sweet
51:40 <Mekkis> generally played in-person
51:49 <illakilla> fuck yea
51:52 <Mekkis> but this channel, we play online
51:53 <illakilla> can i swear in here?
52:12 <illakilla> i play lots of warhammer
52:29 <Mekkis> don't overdo it, but swearing does happen
52:39 <illakilla> ^_^
55:58 <illakilla> yea i've been thinking of buying a d&d board game
56:17 <Mekkis> why?
56:20 <Mekkis> played any roleplaying games?
56:21 <illakilla> was justl ooking at youtube reviews tho
56:27 <illakilla> why? kos i play lots of warhammer
56:36 <illakilla> and its a bit much for my mates to comprehend
56:40 <illakilla> and spend
57:18 <Mekkis> because it's intended to be a method of getting into roleplaying
57:41 <illakilla> pathfinder?
58:11 <Mekkis> D&D board games
58:42 <illakilla> yea well i used to play with my mates when i was younger but it wasnt real dnd
58:52 <illakilla> we're keen to give it a shot
59:31 <Mekkis> Some people would argue that D&D isn't "real D&D" at the moment
59:44 <Mekkis> (and that Pathfinder's much closer to "real D&D")
