02:41 <Mekkis> Irrespective of my own personal preferences, I must admit that I find it rather surprising to see some of the subtleties of the differences between FttH and FttN being considered in the mainstream Australian media. The result of a couple of days of media attention on this topic is that we've all had a rapid education in the salient features of advanced high speed network architectures and their relative merits and relative costs. It prompts me to wonder
02:41 <Mekkis>  if somehow we could make the support of a massive exercise of IPv6 deployment across the entire national network into an equally prominent election issue. Now there's a thought!
14:32 <Falang> hear hear!
15:21 <Rignesis> yes?
15:31 <Rignesis> go on, dear sir
16:20 <Rignesis> oh you talk about internet

17:56 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> not society
18:04 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> i hope not all the games here are society games
18:11 <Avatar> they mostly are
18:15 <Avatar> what's wrong with society
18:30 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> i like the race builder
18:39 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> also, more freeform campaigns
18:39 <Avatar> the what
18:44 <Avatar> forget that
18:48 <Avatar> register on the site, roll up a character
19:18 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> i'd rather play a non-society game
19:26 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> what ones are running at the moment?
19:54 <Avatar> the ones on the site
19:58 <Avatar> have you registered
20:30 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> nope
23:27 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> i'm going to see what the games are like then make a character based on what game i'd like to apply to
23:38 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> i don't make characters in a vacuum
23:40 <Avatar> that never works
23:46 <Avatar> watching a game is always worse than playing
24:38 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> I meant see what the theme is of the game, find out what the characters are doing, what sort of character they need, and stuff like that
24:42 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> by asking the GM
24:44 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> or the players
27:12 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> so
27:18 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> who are the non-society GMs
27:23 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> what are they running
28:26 <Avatar> mekkis and wrothmonk
30:26 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> which mekkis should I PM
31:05 <Avatar> both
38:01 <Ballig> I saw all the caps and thought my spam ban code didn't work
39:20 <Avatar> it didn't, she's still here
41:09 <Ballig> and so are you
41:10 <Ballig> and so are you
41:47 <Avatar> finally got that chronicle sheet from the kickstarter
01:40 <Avatar> what's good and costs 15000gp
02:58 <Falang> your mom
03:52 <Avatar> your banned
04:00 <Rignesis> :)
05:44 <Avatar> Mekkis are you still around
05:54 <Avatar> I don't think I got a chronicle sheet for king of the storval stairs
06:02 <Avatar> after we had to bail quickly on the last day
09:29 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> so
09:33 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Mekkis' game
09:40 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> what's going on there
09:47 <Avatar> have you registered
10:05 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> No.
10:14 <Avatar> do you think you will
10:34 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Depends on what Mekkis and Wrothmonk's games are like
10:46 <Avatar> wrothmonk's one is just a playtest
10:54 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> If I feel compelled to play them
11:02 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> I'll make an account.
11:03 <Avatar> if you're let in
11:12 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> That too
11:29 <Ballig> what's on it?
11:37 <Avatar> you generally need to have a good showing of wanting to hang around if you're planning on playing a campaign game
11:50 <Avatar> that'll be tricky to prove if you can't even bring yourself to register
12:00 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Christ, fine
12:08 <Avatar> you don't have to
14:31 <Avatar> I just scrounged up another 7k
14:38 <Avatar> what's good and costs 23000gp

21:47 <Avatar> when you use it you gain the advanced simple template for the duration of the scenario
21:55 <Ballig> boring
21:56 <Avatar> or if you use it with someone else, you get a permanent random bonus 
22:03 <Avatar> and there's a table of 20 things
22:04 <Ballig> what's the bonus table
22:28 <Avatar> alchemical bonus to 
22:33 <Avatar> +2 to escape artist
22:49 <Avatar> use standard actions underwater
23:04 <Avatar> treat any fall as 10ft shorter
23:13 <Avatar> survive on half the normal food and water (??)
23:24 <Avatar> treat your str score as 2 higher when determining carrying capacity
23:29 <Avatar> +1 on sense motive and survival
23:34 <Avatar> +1 on diplo and intimidate
23:38 <Avatar> it's going to be more like 30000gp actually
23:43 <Avatar> reduce bleed damage by 1
23:52 <Avatar> +1 to attack rolls on readied attacks
23:53 <Avatar> how do I have no suggestions for 30000gp
24:11 <Avatar> when not wearing armour, you have natural armour spikes
24:22 <Avatar> +2 to survival to avoid getting lost
24:33 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> i have no idea what your character is
24:34 <Avatar> reduce damage by negative energy by 1
24:42 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> i may as well suggest random bullshit
25:12 <Avatar> roll 1d8 as per prismatic spray, your skin turns that colour permanently and you get +2 diplo vs humanoid gnomes
25:26 <Avatar> increase healing by positive energy by 1
25:38 <Avatar> gain low light vision, or if you already have it see 3x as far with it
26:14 <Avatar> pick any humanoid subtype and gain +3 to disguise when you try to appear as that race
26:20 <Avatar> +2 to swim
26:29 <Avatar> +2 to acrobatics (prehensile tail!)
26:47 <Avatar> when attacking an adjacent creature with concealment, reduce miss chance by 10%
26:58 <Avatar> and rolling 20 means you roll again and take two things
27:10 <Ballig> a lot of those seem useless or niche, but some look decent
27:13 <Rignesis> suggest :)
27:30 <Avatar> yeah
27:47 <Avatar> getting survive on half normal food and water is a joke
28:00 <Avatar> how does that even work
28:05 <Avatar> is there such a thing as half a ration
28:09 <Ballig> you're meant to use 1 trail ration a day
28:14 <Ballig> so it'd be 1 trail ration every two days
28:24 <Avatar> terrible for PFS
28:39 <Ballig> +2 diplo vs. humanoid gnomes (are there non-humanoid gnomes?) seems really niche too
30:16 <Avatar> it's a gunslinger
30:29 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> alright
30:33 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> what do you have already?
30:51 <Avatar> http://www.pfrpg.com.au/viewchar.php5?char=308
31:05 <Avatar> the armour's wrong and the gold's wrong
31:12 <Avatar> I've got +1 elven chain
31:20 <Avatar> and about 30000gp oh yeah sing it to me
32:25 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> well
32:36 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> you're using the old type firearms
32:42 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> which are the bad type of broken
32:50 <Avatar> in PFS you can't use advanced firearms
33:21 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> another reason not to play Pathfinder Society
33:43 <Brunius|M-> You're alive
33:48 <Avatar> so you're a munchkin are you
34:03 <Avatar> it says humanoids with the gnome subtype
34:11 <Brunius|M-> Can you tell Mekkis I didn't kidnap you?
35:06 <Ballig> I broke out of your basement and started using your computer while you were out
35:36 <Brunius|M-> I don't have a basement
35:55 <Brunius|M-> Checkmate atheists
36:21 <Ballig> yeah I was going to go with something more Australian, but I'm not really sure where we'd keep kidnap victims
36:24 <Ballig> garden shed?
36:28 <Ballig> probably should've gone with garden shed
36:30 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> nope
36:46 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> i can just recognise that the traditional firearms aren't viable in pathfinder combat
36:49 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> anyway
36:55 <Avatar> they most certainly are
36:56 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> get some stuff to pump your skills
37:00 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> if you can find it
37:04 <Avatar> so much so I've had to avoid pumping up my gun too much
37:06 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> a means of flight, too
37:22 <Avatar> I can afford winged boots, but I think I'll stick with potions
38:39 Hydrazine ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
38:54 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> there are other means as to flight
39:08 <Avatar> like what
40:07 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> broom of flying
40:10 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> 17000
40:28 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> carpet of flying
40:30 <Avatar> I already have a witch
40:31 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> 20000
40:41 <Avatar> carpet eh
40:48 <Avatar> what are the mechanics like on that
41:06 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic-items/wondrous-items/wondrous-items/c-d/carpet-of-flying
42:14 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> do you even know about the SRD?
42:18 <Avatar> you can squeeze 2 people on a 5ft x 5ft square can't you
42:26 <Avatar> yes I know about the SRD
43:11 <Avatar> isn't it better to get boots than a carpet
43:43 <Avatar> oh, 3/day, 5 minutes each flight
44:05 <Avatar> a flying carpet would be cool
44:34 <Avatar> I like the idea of being able to sit down, have the carpet fly my around, and shoot
44:51 <Avatar> hell I could lay prone for the +4 bonus and still move around and shoot !
51:47 <Avatar> not that I really need a higher to-hit bonus
19:39 <Steven> I dont believe you get a +4 bonus for laying down on a carpet of flying.
31:33 Rignesis has quit (EOF from client)
47:28 <Steven> what up shifty
48:01 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Not much
48:09 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Looking at my Pathfinder Overhaul
48:24 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Thinking about running a game here.
48:34 <Steven> i lack context for that statement
48:39 <Steven> and you should totaly run a game here!
48:52 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Maybe.
49:00 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> I'll see how I feel.
49:39 <Falang> I'll be looking forward to it
50:33 <Steven> I think i should run something today.
52:02 <Falang> who's up for some of my fresh batch of Panang?!
52:15 <Mekkis> sure
54:18 <Steven> little early for curry for me
54:50 <Falang> I love making curry, the smell just fills the house.
55:18 <Falang> it's even better now that I started using these tiny little thai eggplant things
00:05 <Steven> damn it, theres an error when i go to update my scenarios GMed
00:55 <Steven> well, suppose i wont have an updated list then

08:16 <Mekkis> Anyone seen wrothmonk today?
11:17 <Falang> nope, kinda strange actually
11:55 <Steven> he's a kid and subject to his parents whims.  They may have grounded him from the computer
12:11 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> oh god
12:21 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> the other non-society game runner is a kid?
12:28 <Rignesis> how old are you here?
12:44 <Rignesis> 28 here
12:45 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> i only got here tonight
12:51 <Falang> I'll be running a game soon as well, and I'm as old as two Wroths put together
12:55 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> i am hungry for RPGs
12:59 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> i am 21
13:28 <Rignesis> falang - you 44?
13:51 <Falang> uhhhhh, he's not that old is he?  that's hardly a kid.
13:57 <Falang> I'm not that damn old, no. 
14:09 <Rignesis> so how old are you? :D
14:11 <Falang> 38 last I checked, but I'm not known to be reliable in remembering it.
14:41 <Rignesis> and what about mekkis?
14:54 <Falang> who knows
14:57 <Falang> I'm apparently the oldest person in here
15:07 <Falang> which means you must OBEY!@#
15:18 <Mekkis> My age in yours can be stored in five bits.
15:23 <Mekkis> s/yours/years/
15:56 <Falang> I'm sorry, it seems Mekkis was dropped repeatedly on his head as a baby and somehow overstimulated some kind of nerd gland.
16:43 <Rignesis> he is australian military secret project - and talks in code
17:28 <Rignesis> most likely - higly flammable
19:16 <Mekkis> So. Are you a Norwegian spy, or a Latvian spy?
20:27 <Mekkis> I'm assuming Latvian, Rignesis. I also think your netadmin is a lazy bastard.
21:48 <Falang> no reverse dns again?
21:59 <Mekkis> nope
22:30 <Falang> God that's annoying, I've never understood that. Mine does show up locally, but won't resolve from austnet at least.. I can't say I'm surprised.
22:46 <Falang> Like reverse DNS is so damn hard or something
22:51 <Mekkis> does mine show up?
25:37 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Okay
25:39 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> So
25:44 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> The game that I'm running
25:51 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Or going to run
25:56 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> One I get everything together
26:01 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Is going to be a zombie game
26:05 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> In the style of L4D2
26:21 <Falang> I've been meaning to play that ever since I got it on sale on steam..
27:22 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> I've played it so much that I'm in the top 3% of players
27:25 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> according to Raptr
27:56 <Falang> well shit, when I do I'll be sure to bug you for tips
28:55 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> It is a game that seems simple
29:05 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> but has a deep complexity
29:24 <Mekkis> so trying to organise a resistance and find a safehouse?
29:36 <Mekkis> consecrated ground?
29:47 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> It's.....
29:49 <Mekkis> or four gunslingers?
29:55 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Well, the zombies aren't entirely unholy
29:57 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> No
30:01 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> No gunslingers
30:20 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Swashbucklers, a melee class that replaces them, yes
30:40 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> But you can be any class
30:46 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> except gunslinger
31:05 <Brunius|M-> So Ballig, what's going on? Haven't seen you around that much recently
31:21 <Falang> I'll treat it like a game of CoC, I'll be a Running specialist ;)
32:01 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> to bad that the zombies are faster
32:10 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> you obviously haven't played L4D2
32:34 <Mekkis> What's the background?
34:22 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> What do you mean?
34:28 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Because if you mean the origin of the zombies
34:32 <Mekkis> no
34:55 <Mekkis> I'm not entirely sure what you mean by "in the style of L4D2"
35:09 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Uhhhhhh

51:03 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> because fuck me if i am fleshing this whole world out from the start
11:44 <Mekkis> so Brunius|M- what's going on?
43:58 <Falang> mornin' folks
44:17 <Mekkis> http://blog.zorinaq.com/?e=74
46:25 <Falang> Maybe there are lolth-mutated spider-gnomes! "spider gnome, spider gnome.."
04:48 <Mekkis> Hydrazine?
35:21 Kzar has quit (EOF from client)
45:59 <Hydrazine> ?
47:02 <Falang> "spider-gnome, spider-gnome.. can do anything a spider-gnome can.."
19:09 Hydrazine has quit (Ping timeout: 121 seconds)
00:47 <Mekkis> Can you sneak attack with /enervation/?
02:46 <Falang> isn't it a ranged attack spell?
03:28 <Falang> wait... yes.. brain cells warming up.. level draining spell. how would you sneak attack with that?
27:38 <Mekkis> !spell dispell magic, greater
27:43 <diebot> Mekkis, DISPEL MAGIC, GREATER abjuration ([]) bard 5, cleric 6, druid 6, sorcerer/wizard 6, witch 6, inquisitor 6, summoner 5, magus 6 1 standard action Range: medium (100 ft. + 10 ft./level) one spellcaster, creature, or object Comp: V, S Duration: instantaneous Save: none SR:no
27:43 <diebot> The description is too long to send over IRC. View http://nl.ti4200.info/vpsirc/spells/dispel_magic,_greater.html
29:36 <Mekkis> !spell Curse of magic negation
29:37 <diebot> Mekkis, CURSE OF MAGIC NEGATION abjuration ([curse]) cleric 5, inquisitor 4, sorcerer/wizard 4, witch 4 1 round Range: medium (100 ft. + 10 ft./level) one creature Comp: V, S, M (powdered lead and platinum worth 250 gp) Duration: 10 minute/level Save: Will negates SR:no
29:37 <diebot> You disrupt the target creature's ability to draw upon magical energies. For the duration of the spell, it gains the negated spellblight (see page 97). Dispel checks to remove the spellblight take a -5 penalty due to this spell's interference with magical energies.
30:07 <Mekkis> !spell Break Enchantment
30:08 <diebot> Mekkis, BREAK ENCHANTMENT abjuration ([]) bard 4, cleric 5, paladin 4, sorcerer/wizard 5, witch 5, inquisitor 5 1 minute Range: close (25 ft. + 5 ft./2 levels) up to one creature per level, all within 30 ft. of each other Comp: V, S Duration: instantaneous Save: see text SR:no
30:09 <diebot> This spell frees victims from enchantments, transmutations, and curses. Break enchantment can reverse even an instantaneous effect. For each such effect, you make a caster level check (1d20 + caster level, maximum +15) against a DC of 11 + caster level of the effect. Success means that the creature is free of the spell, curse, or effect. For a
30:09 <diebot> cursed magic item, the DC is equal to the DC of the curse. If the spell is one that cannot be dispelled by dispel magic, break enchantment works only if that spell is 5th level or lower. If the effect comes from a permanent magic item, break enchantment does not remove the curse from the item, but it does free the victim from the item's effects.
30:39 <Mekkis> !spell spell absorption
30:41 <diebot> Mekkis, SPELL ABSORPTION abjuration ([]) sorcerer/wizard 5 1 round Range: personal you Comp: V, S, M (a prism) Duration: 1 round/level Save:  SR:
30:42 <diebot> If you successfully counterspell a 3rd-level or lower level spell (through either dispel magic or normal means) while spell absorption is in effect, you absorb the countered spell and use it to regain spells you have already cast. If you're a wizard, you regain the use of any single spell that you have cast since the last time you prepared spells.
30:42 <diebot> If you're a sorcerer, you regain a single spell slot. The spell recovered or spell slot regained must be of an equal level or lower than the spell you counterspelled.

44:51 <Mekkis> !spell simulacrum, lesser
44:52 <diebot> Mekkis, SIMULACRUM, LESSER illusion (shadow[]) sorcerer/wizard 4 1 hour Range: 0 ft.  Comp: V, S, M (an ice sculpture of the target plus powdered rubies worth 50 gp per HD of the simulacrum) Duration: 1 hour/level Save: none SR:no
44:53 <diebot> This spell functions as simulacrum, except you can't create a simulacrum of a creature whose HD or levels exceed your caster level, and it has no magical abilities. The creature is not under your control, though it recognizes you are its creator.
45:04 <Mekkis> !spell simulacrum
45:06 <diebot> Mekkis, SIMULACRUM illusion (shadow[]) sorcerer/wizard 7, summoner 5 12 hours Range: 0 ft.  Comp: V, S, M (ice sculpture of the target plus powdered rubies worth 500 gp per HD of the simulacrum) Duration: instantaneous Save: none SR:no
45:06 <diebot> The description is too long to send over IRC. View http://nl.ti4200.info/vpsirc/spells/simulacrum.html
45:41 <Mekkis> Steven, question: how can a character *know* the HD of a creature?
52:50 <Hydrazine> Were you looking for me, Mekkis?
55:28 <Mekkis> is your bunkspace on a submarine suitable for making armour?
56:30 <Mekkis> http://paizo.com/threads/rzs2prdv?Full-8-hr-crafting-while-traveling#23
03:14 <Hydrazine> I would say no.
03:24 <Hydrazine> Not enough of an overhead to swing a hammer.
03:51 <Hydrazine> Not to mention the crew would lynch you if you were hammering in berthing.
04:07 <Hydrazine> A fist would just shoot out from a nearby bed.
04:34 <Mekkis> ok
07:11 <Hydrazine> But seriously, even without the displeasure of your peers, the vertical space in a sub bunk is ~elbow to straight fingertips.
07:36 <Hydrazine> While this isn't a precise number, it should give you the right idea.
08:12 <Mekkis> so with a pair of pliers, you could conceivably make chainmail, but anything else, forget it?
08:33 <Hydrazine> We made chainmail at the RC-Div workbench, back in the engineroom.
08:49 <Steven> technically theres no way to know for sure the HD of a creature, its one of the situations where you are allowed to metagame without bein called a dick.
08:53 <Hydrazine> Better light, more space in the engineroom.
09:36 <Mekkis> I suppose it's like, there's a skeleton on the floor. How much onyx do I need to throw at it to make it stand up?
09:37 <Hydrazine> Hm. I guess my opinion on that is trial and error. "this spell has worked on this sort of enemy before, but not those."
11:43 <Hydrazine> Took us a few tries to figure out the pattern for chainmail.
12:14 <Steven> got it all made yet?
12:47 <Hydrazine> That was years ago.
13:16 <Steven> so no pictures
14:07 <Hydrazine> Sorry.
14:12 <Hydrazine> We did pretty good though.
14:13 <Steven> sad panda
14:27 <Hydrazine> Good nickel based alloy wire for it.

32:33 <Hydrazine> I wish. Can't wait to go back to Oz.
33:26 <Steven> i cant wait to stay out of Oz!
33:30 <Steven> ahhhh i feel good already
58:00 <Steven> so whats everyone doin?
00:33 <Mekkis> coding CA
00:47 <Mekkis> and listening to Geoff Huston
09:13 <Mekkis> "There's this axiom in business that if your business plan is completely broken and you're about to go bankrupt, you go to Brussels and make the right case, they'll save you. Speak to the Greeks."
09:44 <Mekkis> (or the copyright cartel)
11:14 <Avatar> yo
11:41 <Mekkis> oh no
12:05 <Mekkis> https://ripe65.ripe.net/archives/video/3/
14:33 <Avatar> I thought you were going to say the avatar has found me
15:06 <Avatar> it's occurred to me that while I"m racing to get this oracle I don't really need ready, I need to get my gunslinger ready for a game in 2 days
15:40 <Avatar> buck's going to level up to 11 or die trying this weekend
22:10 <Mekkis> Deceased's business cards have been printed
22:22 <Mekkis> and shipped
22:55 <Mekkis> Steven, how do you deal with tactics that Don't Work?
23:32 <Mekkis> do you ignore them, or say, well, that's RAI, so it HAS to work, so In This Case, it works..?
29:05 <Avatar> Mekkis: do you have any 12s yet
29:13 <Mekkis> nope. An 11.0
29:24 <Avatar> sweet I am about to catch up
29:38 <Mekkis> but I want to play Eot10 with Deceased, rather than with Mytiazair
29:55 <Avatar> well I'd rather play it with snickers rather than buck, but I'm not picky
30:05 <Mekkis> for Eyes of the Ten, you should be.
30:12 <Avatar> should I
30:15 <Avatar> a gunslinger or a witch
30:19 <Avatar> it's not a tough decision
30:26 <Mekkis> you should play the character you want to play
30:30 <Mekkis> with Eyes of the Ten
30:33 <Avatar> either is fine
30:39 <Avatar> I just like my witch a bit better
30:51 <Mekkis> but if Deceased is playing it, he'd rather play with Buck...
30:59 <Avatar> I'm only really burned on the gunslinger because it was getting too easy to kill shit
31:04 <Avatar> but lately I have learned that it is too easy to misfire
31:24 <Mekkis> You've got your Blood Under Absalom boon still, right?
31:32 <Avatar> yeah, forgot about it actually
31:36 <Avatar> what does it do again
31:42 <Mekkis> depends what boon you chose
31:56 <Mekkis> if you chose Combat Boon, it gives you two rerolls of attack rolls
32:00 <Avatar> shit I have to find it
32:29 <Avatar> better not forget the beginner box boon
32:34 <Mekkis> why?
32:39 <Mekkis> it's useless now
32:44 <Mekkis> only works if you have <20 fame
32:53 <Avatar> still
33:12 <Avatar> free vanity
33:17 <Avatar> maybe I should use these at some point
33:26 <Avatar> what's the point in winning tons of boons and never bloody using them
33:54 <Mekkis> giving them to people who will.
34:01 <Avatar> got a boon that gives a bonus vs death effects and other shit
34:01 <Mekkis> If you got a Wayang, I really want it.
34:12 <Avatar> I give away all my race boons
34:16 <Avatar> when I get something I'll let you know
34:19 <Mekkis> thanks
34:31 <Mekkis> I didn't get any boons from Conquest. I feel rather burned.
38:49 <Avatar> yeah I don't know how I get so many and you never get any
39:08 <Avatar> stephanie got 3 at conquest

41:32 * Mekkis sets ban on *!*sxc-cum@*.bigpond.net.au
41:32 Mekkis has kicked sxc-cum from #d&d (Mekkis)
41:41 <Avatar> it feels good, doesn't it
41:46 <Avatar> no pun intended
42:24 <Mekkis> you should put Lucky and Reliable on your gun
42:39 <Avatar> the idea was to make it not overpowered, otherwise reliable would be on there
42:54 <Mekkis> fair enough
43:00 <Avatar> but that's not working out
43:03 <Mekkis> Lucky wouldn't make it overpowered
43:04 <Avatar> I regularly roll 2s and 3s
43:10 <Avatar> what is lucky, I haven't heard of that
44:11 <Mekkis> This special ability can only be placed on one-handed or
44:11 <Mekkis> two-handed firearms. A lucky firearm has its own magical
44:11 <Mekkis> reservoir of grit (see Ultimate Combat). [...] [The wielder] can always spend 1 grit point from the lucky firearm to reroll
44:11 <Mekkis> an attack from it that would result in a misfire. When the
44:11 <Mekkis> wielder does so, she must take the second result, even if that
44:11 <Mekkis> attack roll also results in a misfire.
44:51 <Mekkis> This reservoir holds 1 grit point, which is refreshed at the start of each day.
45:03 <Avatar> I have heard of that
45:11 <Avatar> and I didn't think it awarded an immediate reroll
45:20 <Avatar> I have a feat that took care of grit
45:31 <Avatar> I thought that just gave the a grit point to quick clear
45:44 <Avatar> that's actually a fantastic upgrade for James
46:35 <Avatar> since a misfire breaks the character completely
46:42 <Mekkis> Looks like I ruled incorrectly last night.
46:55 <Mekkis> DR takes place AFTER applying incorporeal.
47:16 <Mekkis> So if something has DR10 and is incorporeal, you need to do 22 points of damage to it to even scratch it.
47:54 <Avatar> what scenario has a bad guy with DR 10 and incorporeal
48:16 <Mekkis> first 7-11 I've ran, actually...
48:19 <Avatar> I don't remember that
48:44 <Avatar> I played it with Buck at level 7 while everyone else was 10 or 11
48:56 <Avatar> ulzef was there
49:03 <Avatar> we uptiered it
49:08 <Avatar> well I uptiered
49:48 <Mekkis> Buck's Gun overcomes the DR, for starters...
50:08 <Avatar> I remember making an attack roll and thinking I did 3 damage, at level 7
50:15 <Avatar> and then everyone was like hmm ok
50:24 <Avatar> then next turn I was like hey wait a minute, no, 27 damage !
50:25 <Mekkis> Knowledge checks!
50:33 <Mekkis> that seems to happen a lot with Buck
50:40 <Mekkis> when you do 20 damage off a crit
50:45 <Mekkis> and I'm like... wtf?
50:49 <Avatar> I have more excuse now than I did back then, but I was still about as used to it as I am now
50:56 <Mekkis> you have no excuse
50:57 <Avatar> there is a lot to add up
51:02 <Avatar> really
51:04 <Mekkis> to not know how to play your character.
51:05 <Avatar> why is that
51:11 <Avatar> I know how to play my character
51:13 <Avatar> it's the maths
51:33 <Mekkis> you know the whiteboard I have on the back of my clipboard that I use when I play?
51:38 <Avatar> yeah
51:45 <Mekkis> you know what I write on it?
51:52 <Avatar> yeah I am a mind reader
52:02 <Mekkis> I keep my current attack and damage modifiers
52:12 <Avatar> all of that is on my character sheet
52:17 <Mekkis> whenever someone casts Bless or Prayer or Haste of whatever, I update it.
52:23 <Avatar> the modifiers from haste and whatnot are not the hard part
52:40 <Mekkis> so it's in front of me before I roll to attack
53:16 <Avatar> first I have to decide what type of attack I'm doing based on how far away I am and how many attacks I have
53:29 <Mekkis> then write each of them down on the whiteboard
53:30 <Avatar> then I've got the rollset in front of me, and because I change them all the time, I never get used to them
53:36 <Avatar> they're on the character sheet
53:49 <Mekkis> but they don't take into account stuff like bless or prayer or haste
54:00 <Avatar> adding 1 or 2 is not an issue, I just said that
54:36 <Avatar> +1 Seeking Holy Musket 
54:37 <Avatar>                   +15/+10    1d12+6         19-20/x4    9lb     40 ft  M     B & P (Misfire 1-2, Capacity 1)
54:37 <Avatar>      vs evil                   +2d6
54:37 <Avatar>   within 30ft     +16/+11    1d12+7                                          (Point Blank Shot)
54:37 <Avatar>   Deadly Aim      +12/+7     1d12+12
54:37 <Avatar>   Deadly Aim&30ft +13/+8     1d12+13                                           
54:37 <Avatar>   Rapid Shot      +13/+13/+8 1d12+6
54:37 <Avatar>   RS&30ft         +14/+14/+9 1d12+7
54:37 <Avatar>   RS&DA (>30ft)   +10/+10/+5 1d12+12    
54:37 <Avatar>   RS&DA (<=30ft)  +11/+11/+6 1d12+13
54:55 <Avatar> it's adding a 1d20 or 1d12 to those numbers, on 3 attacks
55:13 <Avatar> one for each attack and one for each damage on different dice
55:34 <Mekkis> Damage doesn't change.
55:40 <Mekkis> for each attack.
55:54 <Avatar> you're still focusing on the bless/prayer/haste thing
56:13 <Avatar> tristen had the same problem with his archer
56:16 Proquar ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
56:19 <Avatar> not because he's a bad player, it's just a lot to think about
56:32 <Mekkis> I've played an archer too. I don't have those problems.
56:42 <Proquar> are you busy mekkis?
56:52 <Avatar> where's your sheet
56:53 <Mekkis> not entirely: I'll be having dinner soon though
57:27 <Mekkis> http://nl.ti4200.info/~mekkis/Arjuna.pdf
57:32 <Mekkis> that might be last level
57:37 <Mekkis> but other than that it's up to date
58:07 <Avatar> yeah yours looks similar to mine
58:12 <Avatar> maybe you can count better than we can
58:44 <Mekkis> for starters, you're not going to full-attack without using rapid shot, right?
58:58 <Mekkis> and you're hardly ever going to attack without using deadly aim.
58:58 <Avatar> usually
59:01 <Proquar> char sheets are too long these days
59:03 * Proquar frowns
59:18 <Avatar> they're exactly the same old lady
59:31 <Proquar> whipper snapper, you!
59:35 <Avatar> :P
59:36 <Mekkis> yeah. Look at Nameless One's sheet, for instance!
59:41 <Mekkis> that was like, 5 years ago
00:49 <Proquar> Can I play Lupton?
01:02 <Avatar> probably
01:05 <Mekkis> When I play Arjuna, I only look at the RS DA PBS and RS DA attack sequences.
01:17 <Mekkis> I add the point-blank shot on-the-fly
01:38 <Mekkis> so I just write +10/+10/+5   1d6+14 on the whiteboard.
01:54 <Avatar> haven't you just been preaching that you add in bonuses like bless on your whiteboard
01:58 <Mekkis> yes.
02:01 <Avatar> why would you do that with bless but not point blank shot
02:18 <Mekkis> because PBS is something that I can't determine until it's my turn.
02:34 <Mekkis> (although PBS is almost always on: Arjuna generally rides a celestial pegasus)
04:17 <Mekkis> One thing I'd suggest is to put everything you Generally Won't Use elsewhere - like not on your whiteboard.
04:43 <Mekkis> Sure, it will make your character a little less powerful, but a lot easier to play
06:06 <Avatar> if I generally won't use it, it wouldn't be on my sheet
06:29 <Mekkis> !find Buck
06:30 <dicebot> Mekkis, http://www.pfrpg.com.au/viewchar.php5?char=308
07:04 <Mekkis> So why is Intimidate vs goblins on your sheet?
08:36 <Avatar> because I will forget I have the boon if it's not there
08:53 <Mekkis> Sure... but you Generally Won't Use It
08:55 <Avatar> I don't go looking at my boons every time I make any kind of roll to see if I have some sort of bonus to it
09:01 <Avatar> and I certainly don't trust my memory
09:18 <Avatar> there are other rules to consider
09:22 <Mekkis> I'll use Perfection, Itzamna's Eidolon as an example.
09:26 <Avatar> you can't just look at one and ignore the rest since they don't meet that first one
09:31 <Mekkis> http://nl.ti4200.info/~mekkis/Perfection.pdf
09:49 <Mekkis> Sure, there are a bunch of different attacks he can use.
11:14 <Mekkis> But really, the only attacks he DOES use is the full-attack power attack. So I write:
11:16 <Mekkis>  Bite +11 1d8+16
11:26 <Mekkis> 4 Claws +11 1d6+11
11:34 <Avatar> that's great but I have no idea about your eidolon
11:47 <Mekkis> Vs Human: Bite +13 1d8+2d6+18
12:07 <Mekkis>        4 Claws: +13 1d6+2d6+13
12:49 <Mekkis> Sure, there is the option to not power attack, or whatever, but I've decided that I will never use it.
13:11 <Mekkis> If an AoO comes up when he hasn't power attacked, then I'll go to the sheet and look it up, but that rarely comes up.
13:23 * Proquar heads off for dinner
13:53 <Avatar> is that what's missing, power attack
13:56 <Mekkis> Since Itzamna's casting Greater Magic Fang, and Haste and all a manner of other things, that sort of thing needs to be kept up-to-date.
14:00 <Mekkis> ?
14:14 <Mekkis> Perfection always uses power attack.
14:23 <Avatar> all of these lines are meaningless man
15:03 <Avatar> how can you show me how efficient your attacks are if I don't know what inefficient looks like there
15:12 <Mekkis> your sheet.
15:25 <Avatar> my sheet is fine
15:32 <Avatar> efficient, even
15:35 <Mekkis> you have EIGHT separate lines you need to choose from and look up
15:44 <Avatar> no I don't
15:46 <Avatar> the numbers are all there
15:50 <Avatar> choosing a line is not the hard part
15:57 <Mekkis> what's the hard part then?
16:36 <Avatar> adding 1d20+11, 1d20+11, 1d20+6, 1d12+13, 1d12+13, 1d12+13
16:58 <Avatar> if a critical comes into it, it's even more maddening
17:27 <Avatar> then it becomes 1d20+11, 1d20+11, 1d20+6, 1d20+11, 1d12+13, 1d12+13, 1d12+13, 1d12+13, 1d12+13, 1d12+13, 1d12+13
17:38 <Avatar> that is a hell of a lot of numbers
17:54 <Mekkis> so you roll all your attacks at once?
18:06 <Avatar> I can't roll them all at once, I can't keep up
18:22 <Mekkis> do you try?
18:31 <Avatar> yeah, I've even got colour coded dice for it
18:47 <Avatar> lots of d12s
18:57 <Mekkis> I.... recommend against it...
19:06 <Avatar> against what
19:15 <Mekkis> rolling all attacks at once.
19:25 <Avatar> yeah i've learnt that the hard way
19:38 <Avatar> were you there when we played king of storval stairs
19:38 <Mekkis> Did you ever see Gitch play his archer?
19:40 <Mekkis> yes
19:55 <Avatar> yeah I was rolling all at once there and that sort of worked once I got my groove down
20:10 <Mekkis> until a misfire or a crit happened
20:40 <Avatar> yeah, that was just the first time
21:04 <Avatar> it becomes a bit pointless to roll all at once with that many rolls
21:09 <Mekkis> I was impressed at Gitch's management of his archer, actually.
21:19 <Avatar> what does he do
21:45 <Mekkis> his archer generally fires six arrows a round, with five attack rolls.
22:25 <Mekkis> He has six sets of coloured dice, and six corresponding whiteboard markers. 1d20, 1d8, 2d6.
23:17 <Avatar> and does what with them
23:18 <Mekkis> He keeps them in six separate piles in front of him, and has each separate set of attack and damage modifiers written out for each one.
23:26 <Mekkis> (in corresponding colours)
23:41 <Avatar> oh right
23:56 <Mekkis> when it's his turn, he'll start at the left, and roll one pile, resolve the hit and damage, then move on to the next one.
24:08 <Mekkis> (the sixth dice pile he uses for haste)
24:09 <Avatar> it's honestly just the maths that gets in the way with me
24:30 <Avatar> I can easily add 9 + 13 but when I get to the table and numbers are everywhere, I draw a blank
24:47 <Avatar> it's actually not like that online
24:52 <Mekkis> but there are two reasons why you should roll each attack separately (but roll attack and damage together)
25:05 <Avatar> I guess because you can roll 1d20+13 without adding it
25:07 <Mekkis> the first is that it means less calculations at once.
25:31 <Mekkis> The second is because if your first shot drops the enemy, you can then easily move on to the next enemy.
26:01 <Avatar> you can do that anyway
26:11 <Mekkis> sure. but not easily.
26:20 <Avatar> I don't really understand why people insist on rolling all at once
26:36 <Avatar> ashley seems to do it really well
26:59 <Mekkis> if you're rolling 5d20, and 5d12, and 10d6, it's hard to fish out the yellow d20, the yellow d12 and the two yellow d6s.
27:53 <Avatar> yeah
27:58 <Mekkis> (also, as a GM, if you roll all at once, it's a good way of killing PCs)
28:13 <Mekkis> (strangely enough, Matt Goodall doesn't do that)
28:32 <Mekkis> (Mike Brock does, iirc)
28:42 <Mekkis> but that was bonekeep, so sure.
29:53 <Avatar> yeah good call
29:58 <Avatar> on not rolling all at once while GMing
30:05 <Avatar> not on mike brock doing it during bonekeep
30:17 <Avatar> it's meant to be hard because it's a hard scenario, not because of dice rolling techniques
30:18 <Mekkis> depends on whether or not you WANT to kill characters
30:41 <Avatar> depends on whether or not you want to kill characters for good reasons or bad ones
32:44 <Mekkis> Sure. It does have the unfortunate side-effect of making you look like a douche if you do find yourself in a position where an enemy has dropped the character after two hits of a full-attack.
33:11 <Mekkis> (do you continue the full-attack on the downed character)
33:47 <Avatar> is anyone else adjacent
33:55 <Proquar> mekkis, is it ok to play lupton tonight?
33:58 <Mekkis> no - nor reachable with a 5' step
34:09 <Avatar> then yeah finish it off
34:14 <Mekkis> Proquar, is lupton PFS-legal and level 1-7?
34:17 <Proquar> it's all right, she's not pathfinder.. i remember
34:18 <Mekkis> if so, Sure
34:29 <Avatar> she's level 4 isn't she
34:33 <Proquar> pathfinder is beginning to unnerve me
34:40 <Avatar> why
35:01 <Proquar> not sure... too pedantic, but that's not quite it
35:20 <Mekkis> Avatar, pretty much. It still makes you look like a douche.
35:37 <Avatar> no it doesn't, at high levels, that becomes normal
35:45 <Proquar> oh, falang has declined...
35:46 <Avatar> happens whether you roll all at once or not
35:59 <Mekkis> sure, but you're not consciously doing it.
36:22 <Avatar> that doesn't change anything, the result is the same
37:16 <Mekkis> more or less

15:13 <Avatar> are you really
15:38 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> you've seen through my tricks
15:50 <Avatar> you didn't hide it very well
15:52 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> i'm actually a christian gremlin come to spoil your fun
15:56 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> yes really
16:05 <Avatar> it's the shift key that gave it away
16:47 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> so
16:56 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> what's the deal with games around here
17:03 <Avatar> have you played PFS before
17:09 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> not society
17:17 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> i hope not all the games here are society games
17:24 <Avatar> they mostly are
17:28 <Avatar> what's wrong with society
17:43 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> i like the race builder
17:52 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> also, more freeform campaigns
17:52 <Avatar> the what
17:57 <Avatar> forget that
18:01 <Avatar> register on the site, roll up a character
18:31 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> i'd rather play a non-society game
18:39 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> what ones are running at the moment?
19:07 <Avatar> the ones on the site
19:11 <Avatar> have you registered
19:43 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> nope
22:40 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> i'm going to see what the games are like then make a character based on what game i'd like to apply to
22:51 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> i don't make characters in a vacuum
22:53 <Avatar> that never works
22:59 <Avatar> watching a game is always worse than playing
23:51 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> I meant see what the theme is of the game, find out what the characters are doing, what sort of character they need, and stuff like that
23:55 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> by asking the GM
23:57 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> or the players
25:00 Kzar ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
26:25 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> so
26:31 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> who are the non-society GMs
26:36 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> what are they running
27:39 <Avatar> mekkis and wrothmonk
29:39 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> which mekkis should I PM
30:18 <Avatar> both
37:14 <Ballig> I saw all the caps and thought my spam ban code didn't work
38:33 <Avatar> it didn't, she's still here
40:22 <Ballig> and so are you
40:23 <Ballig> and so are you

51:39 lc0489262 ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
51:47 lc0489262 is now known as Rignesis
00:53 <Avatar> what's good and costs 15000gp
02:11 <Falang> your mom
03:05 <Avatar> your banned
03:13 <Rignesis> :)
04:57 <Avatar> Mekkis are you still around
05:07 <Avatar> I don't think I got a chronicle sheet for king of the storval stairs
05:15 <Avatar> after we had to bail quickly on the last day
08:42 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> so
08:46 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Mekkis' game
08:53 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> what's going on there
09:00 <Avatar> have you registered
09:18 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> No.
09:27 <Avatar> do you think you will
09:47 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Depends on what Mekkis and Wrothmonk's games are like
09:59 <Avatar> wrothmonk's one is just a playtest
10:07 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> If I feel compelled to play them
10:15 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> I'll make an account.
10:16 <Avatar> if you're let in
10:25 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> That too
10:50 <Avatar> you generally need to have a good showing of wanting to hang around if you're planning on playing a campaign game
11:03 <Avatar> that'll be tricky to prove if you can't even bring yourself to register
11:13 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Christ, fine
11:21 <Avatar> you don't have to
13:44 <Avatar> I just scrounged up another 7k
13:51 <Avatar> what's good and costs 23000gp
22:51 <Avatar> it's going to be more like 30000gp actually
23:06 <Avatar> how do I have no suggestions for 30000gp
23:46 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> i have no idea what your character is
23:55 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> i may as well suggest random bullshit
26:26 <Rignesis> suggest :)
29:29 <Avatar> it's a gunslinger
29:42 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> alright
29:46 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> what do you have already?
30:04 <Avatar> http://www.pfrpg.com.au/viewchar.php5?char=308
30:18 <Avatar> the armour's wrong and the gold's wrong
30:25 <Avatar> I've got +1 elven chain
30:33 <Avatar> and about 30000gp oh yeah sing it to me
31:38 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> well
31:49 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> you're using the old type firearms
31:55 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> which are the bad type of broken
32:04 <Avatar> in PFS you can't use advanced firearms
32:34 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> another reason not to play Pathfinder Society
33:01 <Avatar> so you're a munchkin are you
35:43 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> nope
35:59 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> i can just recognise that the traditional firearms aren't viable in pathfinder combat
36:02 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> anyway
36:09 <Avatar> they most certainly are
36:09 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> get some stuff to pump your skills
36:13 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> if you can find it
36:17 <Avatar> so much so I've had to avoid pumping up my gun too much
36:19 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> a means of flight, too
36:35 <Avatar> I can afford winged boots, but I think I'll stick with potions
38:04 * dicebot removes ban on *!*sxc-cum@*.bigpond.net.au
38:07 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> there are other means as to flight
38:21 <Avatar> like what
39:20 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> broom of flying
39:23 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> 17000
39:41 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> carpet of flying
39:43 <Avatar> I already have a witch
39:44 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> 20000
39:54 <Avatar> carpet eh
40:01 <Avatar> what are the mechanics like on that
40:19 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic-items/wondrous-items/wondrous-items/c-d/carpet-of-flying
41:27 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> do you even know about the SRD?
41:31 <Avatar> you can squeeze 2 people on a 5ft x 5ft square can't you
41:39 <Avatar> yes I know about the SRD
42:24 <Avatar> isn't it better to get boots than a carpet
42:56 <Avatar> oh, 3/day, 5 minutes each flight
43:18 <Avatar> a flying carpet would be cool
43:47 <Avatar> I like the idea of being able to sit down, have the carpet fly my around, and shoot
44:04 <Avatar> hell I could lay prone for the +4 bonus and still move around and shoot !
51:00 <Avatar> not that I really need a higher to-hit bonus
51:09 Brunius|M ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
18:52 <Steven> I dont believe you get a +4 bonus for laying down on a carpet of flying.

40:09 SHIFTKEYGIRL ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
46:41 <Steven> what up shifty
47:14 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Not much
47:22 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Looking at my Pathfinder Overhaul
47:38 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Thinking about running a game here.
47:47 <Steven> i lack context for that statement
47:52 <Steven> and you should totaly run a game here!
48:05 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Maybe.
48:13 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> I'll see how I feel.
48:52 <Falang> I'll be looking forward to it
49:46 <Steven> I think i should run something today.
51:15 <Falang> who's up for some of my fresh batch of Panang?!
51:28 <Mekkis> sure
53:31 <Steven> little early for curry for me
54:03 <Falang> I love making curry, the smell just fills the house.
54:31 <Falang> it's even better now that I started using these tiny little thai eggplant things
59:18 <Steven> damn it, theres an error when i go to update my scenarios GMed
00:08 <Steven> well, suppose i wont have an updated list then
07:29 <Mekkis> Anyone seen wrothmonk today?
10:30 <Falang> nope, kinda strange actually
11:08 <Steven> he's a kid and subject to his parents whims.  They may have grounded him from the computer
11:24 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> oh god
11:34 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> the other non-society game runner is a kid?
11:41 <Rignesis> how old are you here?
11:57 <Rignesis> 28 here
11:58 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> i only got here tonight
12:04 <Falang> I'll be running a game soon as well, and I'm as old as two Wroths put together
12:08 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> i am hungry for RPGs
12:12 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> i am 21
12:41 <Rignesis> falang - you 44?
13:05 <Falang> uhhhhh, he's not that old is he?  that's hardly a kid.
13:10 <Falang> I'm not that damn old, no. 
13:22 <Rignesis> so how old are you? :D
13:24 <Falang> 38 last I checked, but I'm not known to be reliable in remembering it.
13:54 <Rignesis> and what about mekkis?
14:07 <Falang> who knows
14:10 <Falang> I'm apparently the oldest person in here
14:20 <Falang> which means you must OBEY!@#
14:31 <Mekkis> My age in yours can be stored in five bits.
14:35 <Mekkis> s/yours/years/
15:09 <Falang> I'm sorry, it seems Mekkis was dropped repeatedly on his head as a baby and somehow overstimulated some kind of nerd gland.
15:56 <Rignesis> he is australian military secret project - and talks in code
16:41 <Rignesis> most likely - higly flammable
18:29 <Mekkis> So. Are you a Norwegian spy, or a Latvian spy?
19:40 <Mekkis> I'm assuming Latvian, Rignesis. I also think your netadmin is a lazy bastard.
21:01 <Falang> no reverse dns again?
21:11 <Mekkis> nope
21:43 <Falang> God that's annoying, I've never understood that. Mine does show up locally, but won't resolve from austnet at least.. I can't say I'm surprised.
21:59 <Falang> Like reverse DNS is so damn hard or something
22:04 <Mekkis> does mine show up?
24:50 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Okay
24:52 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> So
24:57 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> The game that I'm running
25:04 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Or going to run
25:09 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> One I get everything together
25:14 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Is going to be a zombie game
25:18 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> In the style of L4D2
25:34 <Falang> I've been meaning to play that ever since I got it on sale on steam..
26:35 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> I've played it so much that I'm in the top 3% of players
26:38 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> according to Raptr
27:09 <Falang> well shit, when I do I'll be sure to bug you for tips
28:08 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> It is a game that seems simple
28:18 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> but has a deep complexity
28:37 <Mekkis> so trying to organise a resistance and find a safehouse?
28:49 <Mekkis> consecrated ground?
29:00 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> It's.....
29:02 <Mekkis> or four gunslingers?
29:08 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Well, the zombies aren't entirely unholy
29:10 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> No
29:14 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> No gunslingers
29:33 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Swashbucklers, a melee class that replaces them, yes
29:53 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> But you can be any class
29:59 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> except gunslinger
30:34 <Falang> I'll treat it like a game of CoC, I'll be a Running specialist ;)
31:14 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> to bad that the zombies are faster
31:23 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> you obviously haven't played L4D2
31:47 <Mekkis> What's the background?
33:35 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> What do you mean?
33:41 <SHIFTKEYGIRL> Because if you mean the origin of the zombies
33:45 <Mekkis> no
34:08 <Mekkis> I'm not entirely sure what you mean by "in the style of L4D2"
