00:47 <Goya> This is certainly one of the places to do so - though it's rather quiet this evening. 
01:43 <Goya> I'm NOT one of the best resources - but if you have any questions - I'll do my best to answer. ;)
05:52 <Yiroep> I love that feat so much.
08:23 Ultio ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
08:46 <Maestro> I'm back
08:54 <Goya> wb
11:00 <Maestro> Did Anthonypfs questions find a good answer?
11:23 <Goya> Probably not.. =) 
11:50 <Anthonypfs> well for starters there sems to be a lot of different places to look for pfs online games , many different vtt's tools ect...whatsa the best place to go to sign up for one?
13:47 <Goya> Well - each 'group' has their own spot to sign-up - which makes it somewhat unwieldy.. 
14:16 <Maestro> A unified website would be great, but hasn't happened yet.
14:23 <Goya> For this particular group - you use pfrpg.com.au and sign up there. 
14:39 <Maestro> Folks from other groups also like to come here and socialize 
14:59 <Maestro> This seems to be the most frequently populated PFS-based chat room anyone has yet found.
15:05 <Goya> The paizo boards have a spot for advertising online games: http://paizo.com/paizo/messageboards/paizoPublishing/pathfinder/pathfinderSociety/grandLodgeOnlinePlay
15:07 <Maestro> Here you'll find players from all over the globe.
15:31 <Goya> Then there's IronHelixx - which is fairly prolific: http://warhorn.net/iron-helixx-pfs/schedule/month.php
15:54 <Maestro> Another place is the Pathfinder society Online Collective
15:57 <Maestro> https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/pathfinder-society-online-collective
15:58 <Goya> *nods* This is the best IRC group I've found. 
16:08 <Goya> Hands down. 
16:53 <Maestro> The google group I linked tends to have a lot more spontaneous pickup games of PFS, however I tread carefully, as this tends to lead to games being cancelled at the last minute due to poor planning and no-shows.
16:58 <Goya> Once Paizo releases their OWN VTT - maybe they will also have some sort of 'centralized' schedule or something.. 
17:11 Ultio has quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
17:29 <Maestro> IronHelixx is harder to get into a game, because it's scheduled well in advance and the slots fill up quickly, but it's more structured, organized, and they have wait listing. The more players that wait list, the more the coordinators will try to find a GM to run the same scenario on a second table.

39:05 <Maestro> It was like vomitting a gentle lubricant
39:23 <Maestro> Strong enough for a man, but sensitive enough for a woman.
39:23 <Ultio> the taste of it coming back usually makes me puke again
39:24 <Maestro> Now with wings.
39:28 <Ultio> haha
39:34 <Goya> Ugh.
39:34 <Maestro> Well since I was already puking I didn't really care.
39:45 <Maestro> Sorry Goya
39:47 <Maestro> I'm bitching.
39:55 <Goya> No worries - it was funny. ;) 
40:04 <Maestro> Due to the rapid-onset, high frequency and intensity, I'd say I have come down with your standard 24-48 hour stomach virus
40:17 <Maestro> Generally not highly communicable.
40:22 <Maestro> Or, at least my fiancé better hope so.
40:48 <Ultio> One time when I was a kid I got a stomach virus and was puking all day. Mom took me in the kitchen for some pepto, and as soon as I drank it I had to throw up.
41:14 <Ultio> I ran down the hall way and did a jump/turn into the bathroom and covered the whole wall with pepto
41:23 <Ultio> it was glorious
41:36 <Goya> I bet your mom would disagree =) 
41:45 <Maestro> lol
41:55 <Maestro> Sometimes moms deserve to clean a hallway full of light-pink vomit
42:05 <Ultio> she should have left me in the bathroom lol
42:09 <Maestro> That's what you get for making me take those tap dancing lessons
42:16 <Ultio> haha
42:19 <Goya> Heh
42:25 <Maestro> Thanks for making me laugh while sick, Ultio :P
42:27 <Maestro> Now I have to slap you
42:49 <Maestro> I keep trying to guilt-trip my fiancé into bringing me some soup but apparently League of Legends is much more important.
43:34 <Goya> *thinking about it*
43:42 <Goya> NOT that I play LoL.. But.. 
44:02 <Ultio> Feeder
44:44 <Maestro> I'm selfishly against any game that doesn't let me make my own character :P
44:46 <Maestro> In general
44:52 <Maestro> Storytelling always takes precedence.
45:07 <Goya> I don't have the skill or patience for a MOBA. I'm barely able to flail around in something like Chivalry. 
45:09 <Maestro> Oh, BTW
45:32 <Maestro> I wanna start contributing to the PF Society in the form of becoming a GM next month
45:34 <Ultio> League is fun when playing with friends
45:42 <Ultio>  /clap
45:44 <Maestro> Give back, since others have GMed so that I may play
45:52 <Goya> Nice! =) 
46:25 <Maestro> I ask for your forgiveness and understanding if I do this with the IronHelixx group (I like the structure of their events) and I would be absolutely overjoyed to see any of you in my future sessions <3
46:59 <Maestro> But, of course, starting next month feel free to go ahead and ask if there's a scenario you need a GM for.
47:03 <Maestro> But not tonight
47:16 <Maestro> Because I get the sense I may vomit on my keyboard at some point in time tonight
50:13 <Goya> Ironhelixx has a fantastic reputation.  I just wish they had an IRC channel to idle in too. ;) 
53:32 <Avatar> they don't seem to want to chat
56:31 <Goya> *shrugs*
57:41 <Ultio> Maestro: it's always fun cleaning keyboards though!
58:06 <Maestro> You must visit some very cheerful porn sites 
58:24 <Maestro> Goya: Right?!
58:36 <Maestro> IRS is a grand tool for communication
58:56 <Goya> NSA is a better tool than the IRS these days. ;) 
59:04 <Ultio> only the best of pron sites for me haha
59:06 <Maestro> I meant IRC
59:08 <Maestro> x-x
59:08 <Ultio> haha
59:12 <Goya> *nods* Hehe
59:14 <Maestro> lol
59:26 <Maestro> I'm sick :P That's my excuse
59:49 <Brunius> .
00:08 <Goya> This is (hands down) the best IRC channel (D&D/PF) I've found.  NOT that I'm motivated to search far and wide - but I wish the d&d channel(s) on Freenode were as enjoyable.
00:12 <Brunius> Jihad alqaeda food poisoning
00:26 <Brunius> sup NSA
00:36 <Goya> Heh
00:38 <Avatar> I don't know what's going on with the one on freenode
00:42 <Avatar> they don't seem to talk about d&d
00:57 <Brunius> I idled there for a while, they didn't seem to talk about anything
01:05 <Goya> No - d&d and d&d-inn has a 'regular' crowd - and very rarely does it have anything to do with D&D or PF. 
01:06 <Avatar> shame
02:13 <Goya> I thought it might be good to branch a new 'sister' channel or something (#pfrpg or whatnot) since Freenode has a much higher user count.  BUT.. *shrugs*  I don't know what that would accomplish really. 
02:33 <Brunius> Actual d20 tabletop discussion?
03:36 <Goya> Perhaps. =) 
05:41 <Maestro> Sorry, I was feeding Winston
06:03 <Goya> Winston?
06:04 <Steven> yo
06:08 <Goya> o/
06:10 <Maestro> My rabbit
06:14 <Goya> Ah. 
06:16 <Steven> how goes it goya
06:24 <Goya> Not bad.  How go things?
06:25 <Maestro> The fiancé bought and named him while I was in Afghanistan
06:43 <Maestro> For company
06:45 <Steven> eh, was trying to get a module going today, but everybody had plans.
06:54 <Steven> so gonna try tomorrow
07:14 <Goya> What level/time?
07:21 <Steven> get my thassilonian wizard to level 4
07:50 <Goya> My daughter wants a rabbit.. But - she also wants a sheep, and a horse.. And..
08:06 EricMcG ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
08:27 <Steven> sounds like an expensive christmas
08:40 EricMcG has quit (Quit: )
08:41 <Goya> Tell me about it. =) 
08:47 HTT-Bird ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
08:58 <Maestro> Rabbits, oddly enough, are actually more suited for adults.
09:17 <Steven> especially for dinner.
09:29 <Maestro> :P
09:52 <Maestro> Kids like to hold animals and rabbits absolutely hate being held.
10:06 <Goya> *nods* 
12:56 <Maestro> Quick question
13:32 <Ultio> quick answer
13:44 <Maestro> At the beginning of a session, obviously you read the "Getting Started" to the adventurers and you do not read the "Summary" because it is nothing but 100% spoilers, from concentrate
14:00 <Maestro> But what about the introduction to a scenario that typically comes on the page just before?
14:29 <Maestro> It usually seems to paint a much wider portrait of current events, often hinting at what is necessary without giving away any real spoilers.
15:24 <Ultio> would that be GM discretion?
16:06 <Steven> you start at the briefing.
16:27 <Ultio> is there a list of what Adventure Paths are PFS compatible?
16:29 <Steven> if people ask questions or gather information you can pepper the backround information into that.
19:32 <Goya> Most APs are PFS compatible - but you can only play small 'chunks'.
20:25 <Ultio> oic
20:53 <Goya> I *think* and I could well be TOTALLY wrong - but the module (not AP) for Dragon's Demand gives 4 chronicles for playing through (with PFS or not) - which is more than your typical AP will give. 
21:04 <Ultio> When I was in Germany I was "running" Second Darkness but we didnt make it far, and I was thinking of running it again
21:29 <Steven> the APs that paizo has published.are PFS compatible. as always 3rd party content is not allowed
21:40 <Ultio> the full AP though?
22:38 <Brunius> there was a blog post outlining it fairly recently
23:25 <Brunius> actually no
23:32 <Brunius> I'm thinking of the new modules
24:00 <Goya> *nods* I think Dragon's Demand was the blog post. 
25:15 <Brunius> Alternatively, if you are participating in a Pathfinder Adventure Path with an ongoing home group undertaking the entire campaign, you may receive credit for playing the sanctioned portions of the adventure as if you had played a pregenerated character. In this case, GMs running the Adventure Path are not bound to the rules of the Pathfinder Society Organized Play campaign when running the campaign or the sanctioned portion of the adventure. Pathfinder Societ
25:16 <Brunius> y characters and characters from an ongoing Adventure Path campaign may not play in the same adventure.
25:25 <Brunius> http://paizo.com/paizo/blog/v5748dyo5le7p?Sanctioning-Adventure-Paths-for-Pathfinder
26:00 <Maestro> Yeah
26:05 <Maestro> I was looking for that link
26:09 <Maestro> Brunius beat me to it
26:54 <Goya> *nods* The 'sanctioned portions' for an AP are usually specific dungeons or whatnot (from what i gather). 
29:18 <Goya> The first chunk for 'Rise of the Runelords' (that grants a chronicle sheet) is: .Burnt Offerings. Thistletop (areas C1.E10) 3.5
31:02 <Ultio> so is there a list of the 'sanctioned portions' of each AP somewhere?
32:01 <Maestro> Yeah
32:12 <Maestro> Which AP in particular are you interested in?
32:25 <Ultio> Second Darkness
32:30 <Ultio> I want to run it again
32:38 <Ultio> try to anyway
33:14 <Brunius> You don't need to play PFS in here
33:24 <Brunius> People have been known to play other things
33:44 <Ultio> I just figured if it was possible to get credit might as well
34:03 <Ultio> but if it is overly complicated i wont worry about it
34:39 <Maestro> I don't think second darkness is an AP
35:00 <Maestro> NVMD
35:05 <Maestro> I pulled up the wrong file.
36:43 <Ultio> I havnt read through all the books, but the first book is really fun imo
39:01 <Goya> Hrm.. I don't see any chronicles for that..  Just Rise of the Runelords, Skull and Shackles, Shattered Star, and Reign of Winter (for APs). 
40:06 <Ultio> Oh well
41:01 <Maestro> That's what was defeating me as well
41:32 <Goya> Hopefully that will change.  The new 'module' seems to have 4 chronicles (and it's only 64pgs) - so perhaps they're expanding the PFS content from 'chunks' to actually allow playing modules and APs. 
42:00 <Ultio> i think they should raise the level cap to 20
42:01 <Goya> Well - allow playing more 'completely' and not just for little 'chunks'. 
42:44 <Goya> NOT that it matters much - playing is playing. 
44:12 <Goya> PFS helps folks in the sticks play regularly with different groups - but any AP or campaign works with a regular group. 
44:36 <Ultio> yeah
45:54 <Ultio> i get my weekly "fix" at a place that runs PFS, but I would like to be in a campaign/AP again, but i cant because of my current work schedule.. 
47:47 <Goya> *nods* PFS is definitely better for an erratic schedule. 
48:02 <Goya> Well - easier - not really 'better'. 
48:12 <Steven> second darkness is not sanctioned currently
49:09 <Goya> I do have a PF question though - not related to the current discussion at all.. 
50:33 <Goya> If I go divine-type archer - would I be better going straight cleric with channel smite and guided hand (to focus on WIS) - and gimp archery at lower levels - or maybe go Inquisitor or something (focus on DEX as well) - and go that route?
51:17 <Goya> I rather like the inquisitor - but a straight-cleric in heavy armor loses most DEX bonus anyhow - so focusing on WIS seems logical.. 
51:35 <Steven> inquisitors are an interesting class choice.
52:24 <Goya> Seems like you lose a lot of DEX bonus to the armor (if you chose to wear med/heavy). 
53:19 * Steven shrugs.
53:20 <Goya> I like the general judgements of the Inquisitor though. 
53:23 <Goya> *nods* 
53:31 <Steven> theres always mithril armor.
53:39 <Goya> True. 
55:59 boris has quit (Quit: )
19:06 <Goya> Ugh. I hate making backups.. Two hours and counting. NOT that my backup strategy is entirely 'efficient'.. But.. =/ 
19:29 <Ultio> Yay backups!
19:34 <Goya> Meh. 
20:14 <Goya> Once I finish - it will be much faster going forward. 
21:04 <Goya> Just.. So.. Tedious. 
21:15 <Ultio> yeah
43:25 <Steven> yo what up
46:53 <Maestro> nm
47:50 <Steven> my sin wizard is now level 4
48:08 <Maestro> I haven't heard of that. Is that an archetype?
48:43 <Steven> its a thassalonian specialist.  Not legal without a very specific boon.
49:14 <Maestro> Boons are kind of depressing for people who have never been to a convention v.v
49:27 <Steven> this is not a convention boon.
49:46 <Maestro> I thought that was the only way to get boons.
49:49 <Steven> it is available to anyone, i will not however reveal the source as to influence your decision to play a game.
50:23 <Maestro> That sounds like another way of saying "Nya nya not telling you"
51:05 <Steven> no, its my way of saying i wont influence your decision to play a specific scenario.
51:10 <Steven> Its exceptionally difficult.
51:27 <Maestro> So in other words you're discouraging a player from enjoying an adventure.
51:50 <Maestro> I get it.
51:53 <Maestro> Nobody likes sharing their toys
52:03 <Steven> no, im discouraging you from playing a scenario based on what boon you would receive from it.
52:20 <Maestro> In my world we call it "hoarding" :P
52:49 <Steven> well your world sounds like a place i would love to go an say nya nya im not telling
53:08 <Maestro> …mission accomplished.
53:49 <Steven> but anyways, everytime i've ever revealed where a person can get a cool boon, i get bitched at by others in this room.
53:55 <Steven> so i just dont tell them anymore.
54:37 <Maestro> That seems like a weird thing to gripe at someone for.
54:45 * Steven shrugs
54:51 <Steven> but yeah, level 4 now.
54:56 <Steven> time to pick some more spells
55:33 <Steven> picked blindness/deafness
55:38 <Steven> DC 20
57:32 <Steven> hmmmmm what else.
59:05 <Maestro> I wonder who they were yelling at when everyone spent the last three months crunching First Steps 2 and Way of the Kirin
59:20 <Maestro> Nobody seemed to care about folks talking about boons then.
00:11 <Steven> cause, i know the best boons, and im held to a higher standard due to my affiliation.
00:32 <Maestro> …you're with the mafia?
00:58 <Steven> yes....
01:04 <Steven> im sczarni
01:54 <Maestro> mmm-hmmm
06:43 <Steven> think imma take command undead.
09:43 Yiroep has quit (Quit: Leaving.)
13:32 <Steven> yeah got the guy all planned out.
13:49 <Steven> gonna play some shattered star and the rise of the runelords
14:26 <Steven> with the Reign of winter peppered in.
14:40 <Steven> get myself the shard of gluttony
15:18 <Steven> so that if i havent eaten in the last hour i freak out and try to eat and drink all the potions i have.
16:31 <Steven> then im just going to walk around with a Sustaining Spoon in my mouth all the time.
16:41 <Steven> its going to become my bonded item lol
17:36 <Steven> at least thats what im going to tell everyone lol
20:42 <Goya> http://lookrobot.co.uk/2013/06/20/11-ways-to-be-a-better-roleplayer/
21:00 <Goya> Not exactly PF related - but not bad all the same.
23:16 <Maestro> I wish it wasn't so difficult for new players to figure things out.
23:49 <Maestro> Hell, that's why I started looking online in the first place
24:01 <Maestro> The people at the game stores seemed so… unwelcoming.
25:01 Yiroep ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
25:59 <Steven> well that sucks man.
26:08 <Steven> you can come to my gaming store, we are pretty welcoming
26:48 <Maestro> Right now I'm up in the mountains.
27:41 <Maestro> Which made it even worse, because i'd drive 2 hours into Seattle, get the cold shoulder (or have my first and only character die in a one-hit-crit ) so that I could turn around and drive back 2 hours, get home at 2 AM and wonder WTF I spent all that time and gas money for.
28:08 <Maestro> "Does a 32 hit you"? He asked my level 2 monk
28:15 <Maestro> Gee
28:39 <Maestro> His character could hit me on a 2
29:14 <Maestro> Sorry, I rant
29:24 <Maestro> When things don't make sense.
30:06 <Steven> what the fuck game were you playing in at level 2 that had a +30 to hit?
30:15 <Maestro> Quest for Perfection
30:22 <Steven> oh, the yeti
30:25 <Maestro> Yup
30:26 <Steven> that thing sucks dick
30:30 <Maestro> Because that fucking makes sense.
30:51 <Steven> well which game store you go to?
31:06 <Maestro> Generally speaking, if it's THAT easy to die, people don't make it so damn difficult to come back, at least.
34:27 <Brunius> my level 1 fighterdied in a one hit crit to that yeti
35:11 Yiroep has quit (Quit: Leaving.)
35:59 <Steven> that yeti surious bizni
37:57 <Maestro> Yeah
38:16 <Maestro> And then the GM tries seeing if I want everyone to empty out their pockets so I can bring my loser dead guy back to life.
38:29 <Maestro> Do I look like I have "asshole" tattooed on my forehead?
38:43 <Maestro> I don't join a game so I can go suck the fun out of other peoples' games.
38:47 <Maestro> That's what Yetis are for
39:56 Ricorabbit ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
40:00 <Steven> thats actually pretty common, is to chip in on rez if somebody aint got enough
40:11 <Steven> prolly wouldnt have asked at level 1 if people wanted to do it.
41:46 <Maestro> I was level 2 but the way I figured that's not far enough to justify the expenses.
42:41 <Maestro> But it was still only my second time playing Pathfinder so I was still learning.
42:54 <Maestro> What I learned is don't play a monk.
45:25 <Steven> did ya play a module at first?
45:30 <Maestro> Crypt of the Everflame
45:54 <Steven> thats a good deal, its replayable, so at least you only burnt one piece of credit
45:57 <Maestro> I didn't even know what a module was
46:31 <Maestro> That was a REALLY annoying adventure, too.
46:41 <Maestro> Half of the players did NOTHING, and they were the half with the melee characters.
46:54 <Maestro> So my monk, my fiancé's rogue, and the wizard did all the fighting.
47:18 <Maestro> While the others bottlenecked in tunnels and generally pissed on any idea of tactics.
47:56 <Maestro> And on the BBEG they tried to take the two giant tower shield and hold them at the top of the staircase and try to shoot down over the shields at the BBEG
48:01 <Maestro> Which was NOT working and it was getting LATE.
48:17 <Maestro> Finally the GM had the BBEG come over and disarm just so they'd stop bottlenecking and finish the gorram battle.
48:27 <Maestro> HEY BARBARIAN, MAYBE TRY HITTING HIM WITH THAT GIANT WEAPON YOU CARRY
48:33 <Maestro>  /rant
52:29 <Maestro> Sorry
52:35 <Maestro> I've been super grumpy ever since I got food poisoning
52:36 <Steven> its cool
52:42 <Steven> im just having some foods
52:55 <Steven> hard to type
53:04 <Maestro> The bowl of cereal I had this morning is the only thing I've kept down in… 3-4 days
53:57 <Ricorabbit> hey how 
54:07 Ricorabbit has quit (Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client)
57:10 <Maestro> I'm gonna get some rest
57:15 <Maestro> Later folks. Thanks for gabbing with me Steven
57:25 <Steven> no prob
57:25 <Maestro> Good luck with your wizard
57:29 <Steven> also, if you didnt like that store
57:39 <Steven> you should try a different one, there are several in the area
58:11 <Maestro> Like I said, I'm up in the mountains. In the end it's just not worth the time, trouble and expense.
58:55 <Steven> you should talk to the people around there, there might be a group that you dont know about.
59:23 <Maestro> I'll wait until after the move next month.
01:43 <Maestro> At least I got my fiancé to try the game out. He hasn't played since my monk died, though.
07:43 Maestro ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
09:04 <Maestro> Hey folks
22:30 <Avatar> who can guess what this means
22:35 <Avatar> 1/5 of 2x lesser restoration purchases
29:22 <Steven> means somebody died, and you payed 1/5 of it
29:32 <Steven> thers supposed to be a ? after that
30:35 <Avatar> good guess, but nope
30:51 <Avatar> yeah pretty good
31:13 <Avatar> Oh ho, here’s a jolly thief that nicks stuff from the other party members! And their Sleight of Hand roll is so high that no-one will ever notice! Gosh, what a jape.
31:14 <Avatar> Fuck that guy. No-one likes that guy. 
31:19 <Avatar> wait maybe that's right
32:49 <Steven> no if its lessers it was something else
35:08 <Steven> indeed... no one likes that guy
35:11 <Brunius> Does he have a ring of invsibility
36:10 <Avatar> fuck that guy, brunius
36:25 <Steven> one of my characters has a ring of invisibility
40:47 <Steven> once used it to put a death scarab in a persons pocket

00:25 <Steven> avatar looks like a teenager
00:54 <Brunius> I should probably get a more current picture of me
01:00 <Maestro> I'm here
04:12 <Avatar> no that was my mistake

22:26 <diebot> Mekkis, FORTUNATE CHARM [faint evocation] CL:5 neck 3000gp, 0lb
22:26 <diebot> Once per day, this good luck charm allows the wearer to reroll a single skill check or concentration check after the success or failure of the original roll is known. The result of the reroll must be kept, even if it is worse than the original roll. The charm may not be used on a skill check that's already been rerolled by some other means. Source:
22:26 <diebot> Pathfinder Society Field Guide
24:13 <Avatar> my character sheet said fortune charm
24:15 <Avatar> for 2250gp

55:20 <Goya> It matches the string "r<character><character><character>x" and replaces it with "standard r<character><character><character>x".  The <character> being any 'character'.

03:54 <Goya> Hrm..  A game that's essentially 'minecraft spaceships' http://star-made.org/
04:14 <Goya> Tempting for $3 - and it's on track to be greenlit via Steam. 
04:54 <Goya> The spaceships look pretty fugly though (unless they're huge)...
06:48 <Yiroep> I love that feat so much.
07:03 <Goya> Steam sale pretty much doubled my game backlog though..  =/
11:47 <Maestro> Ah
19:13 <Mekkis> Don't worry
19:27 <Mekkis> someone will compromise your steam account and you'll need to buy everything again
21:08 <Goya> Heh. 
21:36 <Mekkis> have you actually *saved money* on a steam sale?
21:58 <Goya> Probably not.  I buy titles I otherwise probably wouldn't buy.. So.. 
24:07 <Goya> Chivalry was definitely worth $6 though. 
30:35 <Maestro> What's that?
32:32 <Goya> It's a first person shooter - but with swords, axes, and bows. 
32:46 <Mekkis> good luck shooting with an axe
32:53 <Mekkis> or a sword for that matter
06:43 <Goya> *nods* They have throwing knives and axes though.

57:47 <Anthonypfs> hello
58:06 <Goya> o/
59:02 <Anthonypfs> not sure why I am here , I followed a link from paizo.com. I am trying to learn more about pfs online
59:51 <Goya> This is certainly one of the places to do so - though it's rather quiet this evening. 
00:47 <Goya> I'm NOT one of the best resources - but if you have any questions - I'll do my best to answer. ;)
04:25 Maestro has quit (Client exited)
07:35 Maestro ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
07:50 <Maestro> I'm back
07:58 <Goya> wb
10:00 <Maestro> Hey folks
10:04 <Maestro> Did Anthonypfs questions find a good answer?
10:27 <Goya> Probably not.. =) 
10:54 <Anthonypfs> well for starters there sems to be a lot of different places to look for pfs online games , many different vtt's tools ect...whatsa the best place to go to sign up for one?
12:50 <Goya> Well - each 'group' has their own spot to sign-up - which makes it somewhat unwieldy.. 
13:20 <Maestro> A unified website would be great, but hasn't happened yet.
13:27 <Goya> For this particular group - you use pfrpg.com.au and sign up there. 
13:43 <Maestro> Folks from other groups also like to come here and socialize 
14:02 <Maestro> This seems to be the most frequently populated PFS-based chat room anyone has yet found.
14:09 <Goya> The paizo boards have a spot for advertising online games: http://paizo.com/paizo/messageboards/paizoPublishing/pathfinder/pathfinderSociety/grandLodgeOnlinePlay
14:10 <Maestro> Here you'll find players from all over the globe.
14:34 <Goya> Then there's IronHelixx - which is fairly prolific: http://warhorn.net/iron-helixx-pfs/schedule/month.php
14:57 <Maestro> Another place is the Pathfinder society Online Collective
15:01 <Maestro> https://groups.google.com/forum/#!forum/pathfinder-society-online-collective
15:01 <Goya> *nods* This is the best IRC group I've found. 
15:12 <Goya> Hands down. 
15:57 <Maestro> The google group I linked tends to have a lot more spontaneous pickup games of PFS, however I tread carefully, as this tends to lead to games being cancelled at the last minute due to poor planning and no-shows.
16:02 <Goya> Once Paizo releases their OWN VTT - maybe they will also have some sort of 'centralized' schedule or something.. 
16:33 <Maestro> IronHelixx is harder to get into a game, because it's scheduled well in advance and the slots fill up quickly, but it's more structured, organized, and they have wait listing. The more players that wait list, the more the coordinators will try to find a GM to run the same scenario on a second table.

11:21 <Mekkis> yes
11:28 <Mekkis> Steven, run a 1-2 for me
11:31 <Avatar> I've been playing something all day
11:41 <Avatar> bloody mini-bonekeep
12:39 <Mekkis> I've been prepping maps and stuff for WotW
13:13 <Steven> i've been watching hellsing
13:27 <Mekkis> I should get the maps for Cultist's Kiss and Refuge of Time
14:45 <Mekkis> IF, hypothetically, a character from lantern lodge got the Way of the Kirin boon, then became Shadow Lodge and played Rivalry's end, What would happen?
14:58 <Mekkis> \1
15:14 <Steven> nothing.
15:27 <Mekkis> ?
15:43 <Steven> they get the way of the kirin boon, and just the base boon from rivalry's end.  The Boons do not stack.
16:29 <Mekkis> ah
16:55 <Avatar> yeah nobody has thought of that one before
19:22 <Brunius> I should watch hellsign abridged
19:23 <Mekkis> noone thought of the impact synthesists would have on PFS either, right?
19:31 <Brunius> sing maybe
19:37 <Avatar> paizo didn't consider it
19:39 <Avatar> but players did on day 1
19:46 <Mekkis> Avatar, do you own Cultist's Kiss and/or Refuge of Time
19:54 <Avatar> cultist's kiss, yeah
20:04 <Avatar> I haven't prepped it 
20:07 <Mekkis> Avatar, the players did on the day of release, not day of "PFS legal"
20:33 <Steven> i own it.
20:40 <Avatar> they asked the question when it was first mentioned about whether they could benefit from both

35:42 <Steven> applying GM credit.
35:50 <Steven> Wizard now level 5
37:08 <Avatar> sec
37:13 <Mekkis> you should stop cheating Steven 
37:33 <Steven> not cheating mekkis, i have GM credit not applied to any character
38:21 <Mekkis> that's cheating
38:36 <Steven> have 2 more credit in the 7-11 teir i have yet to apply to a character.
38:53 <Mekkis> you need to apply it as soon as you get it
39:26 * Avatar has offered PZOPSS0408E.rar (583926 bytes)
39:42 <Mekkis> could you email it Avatar?
39:42 <Avatar> I don't think anyone cares about that rule
39:52 <Steven> i didnt have a character i wanted to apply it to when i GM'd it.
39:58 <Avatar> can you receive it over skype
40:01 <Mekkis> yes
40:07 <Avatar> use that 
40:16 <Mekkis> Then don't apply it to a character, and apply it next time you GM it
40:28 * DCC RECV connect attempt to Avatar failed (err=Connection timed out).
40:44 <Steven> Or i could apply it now.
40:54 <Mekkis> which would be cheating
40:59 <Steven> not cheating.
41:22 <Mekkis> http://paizo.com/threads/rzs2nqg6?Do-not-encourage-cheating#13
41:37 <Mekkis>  --Failing to apply a GM Chronicle sheet and saving them up to a later date when multiple Chronicles are all applied at the same time 
41:43 <Mekkis> Brock's words
41:44 <Mekkis> not mine
42:52 <Steven> not what im doing.
44:02 <Steven> as soon as i apply the GM credit to the character i am immediately applying the chronicle sheet to it.
44:51 <Brunius> So you should have applied it when you GMed
45:17 <Steven> Yes, at the level appropriate gold.as well.
51:49 <Maestro> I don't understand any of that
52:31 <Mekkis> that's not my fault :P
52:47 <Avatar> nobody ever understands any of that
56:16 <Goya> It matches the string "r<character><character><character>x" and replaces it with "standard r<character><character><character>x".  The <character> being any 'character'. 
58:51 <Steven> there we go, all credit applied to applicable characters.
00:43 <Steven> sadly i cant apply the chronicle sheet yet.  gotta wait till they are in tier. 
00:48 <Goya> Or rather - it's like 'find and replace' on steroids.

33:42 <Mekkis> good luck shooting with an axe
33:50 <Mekkis> or a sword for that matter
34:09 <Goya> *nods* They have throwing knives and axes though. 
34:43 <Goya> I suppose it's more of a 'first person melee' - with bows/crossbows. 
34:51 <Steven> decided im goin to make a spreadsheet

44:28 <Mekkis> don't use excel

46:15 <Steven> mostly because its what i own.
51:42 <Steven> my wizard has spent exactly 4g
51:51 <Steven> wonder what i should purchase.
54:18 <Steven> cant buy a +2 item quite yet.
55:08 <Mekkis> don't format your PC
55:27 <Steven> but thats the fun times.
56:21 <Steven> thinking a persistant rod must go on the list of things to buy when i get the golds.
57:09 <Steven> hmmmm time to look up some rules
57:17 <Steven> cause Persistant Bouncing sounds pretty fun.
57:20 <Maestro> Huh
57:35 <Maestro> Interesting
00:49 <Steven> wondering if the bouncing would proc on the first or second save failure
01:28 <Brunius> don't type rmdir C:/
04:52 <Mekkis> don't open ntkrnlmp.exe in notepad and type your name then save it
05:12 <Steven> right....
05:47 <Mekkis> http://www.processlibrary.com/directory/files/ntkrnlmp/29155/
05:49 <Mekkis> hehe
06:08 <Mekkis> Can I stop or remove ntkrnlmp.exe?
06:08 <Mekkis> Most non-system processes that are running can be stopped because they are not involved in running your operating system. . ntkrnlmp.exe is used by 'Microsoft® Windows® Operating System'.This is an application created by 'Microsoft Corporation'. To stop ntkrnlmp.exe permanently uninstall 'Microsoft® Windows® Operating System' from your system. Uninstalling applications can leave invalid registry entries, accumulating over time. .
27:59 <Maestro> Hey
28:07 <Maestro> Who here is familiar with Tian Xia's lore?
28:30 <Maestro> I'm trying to find the name of the war that took place long ago with angels fighting to prevent an invasion of demons
33:09 <Maestro> That sounds ridiculously vague now that I read it again.
33:43 <Maestro> But once they wrapped the war up the celestials all left a bunch of Aasimar descendants.
