06:01 <Steven> brunius, cant make it to SS this next week.
06:07 <Steven> my mom just invited me to go on a road trip.

14:21 <Mekkis> well.. TI83 can't. TI83+ can
36:32 <Steven> so i got a complaint from a player about my running of citadel of flame
36:52 <Steven> because im a GM that only gets his jollies from killing players...
37:12 <Steven> even though i tried everything i could to not kill players.
38:17 <Steven> the store got a complaint for not being inclusive enough to the player
38:22 <Steven> it was his first time there ever
38:29 <Steven> and nobody could remember his name.
40:01 <Steven> So i guess im not supposed to follow tactics as written even more, i shouldnt cast spells at all on my casters because thats just not fair to players.
10:19 <Steven> so what you guys up to
10:43 <Avatar> is that the fireball one
10:53 <Avatar> tier 4-5 for that fireball
10:56 <Avatar> doesn't sound new
11:04 <Steven> yeah
11:10 <Steven> 6d6 damage
11:17 <Steven> rolled 29
11:23 <Avatar> owwwww
11:29 <Steven> everyone but one person failed save
13:18 <Steven> yeah, thats the only Fireball i used.
13:32 <Steven> cause i didnt want to kill them
16:24 <Avatar> what did the player want you to do exactly
16:32 <Steven> i dunno
16:43 <Avatar> that's an important question
16:50 <Steven> i guess not use fireball
16:59 <Avatar> you ran tactics as written
17:22 <Steven> no i broke tactics right after the spell and took super ineffective actions
17:41 <Steven> i literally could have killed all of them.
18:09 <Avatar> before the fireball
18:22 <Avatar> before and up to
18:29 <Steven> started game
18:31 <Avatar> I don't think anyone is upset at going weaker
18:42 <Steven> read the description
18:50 <Avatar> what description
18:56 <Steven> they found the citadel of flame
19:01 <Steven> get attacked by two fire elementals
19:12 <Steven> kill em pretty easy
19:16 <Steven> they go inside the temple
19:22 <Avatar> I'm only talking about that encounter
19:26 <Steven> go upstairs after the foot steps
19:31 <Avatar> everything before that doesn't matter
19:34 <Steven> run into a fireball
19:37 <Avatar> or is that what they had problems with
19:37 <Steven> they heal up
19:42 <Steven> come downstairs
19:53 <Steven> i tell them to move where ever they want their characters to move
20:10 <Steven> ONE guy was like we're in fireball formation, imma move over this way
20:17 <Steven> i waited 10 full seconds
20:36 <Steven> and i was like out of the mouth of the statue shoots a bead of fire(nobody was in range for color spray)
21:19 <Steven> roll damage, 29 damage.. 2 people sucking dirt
21:23 <Steven> and other people hurting a lot
22:00 <Steven> I killed 1 person when i should have killed 5 people...

34:04 Brunius|M ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
34:05 <Steven> the one person i did kill died from a flaming sphere
34:35 <Mekkis> I'm unconvinced by every ACG class
34:51 <Steven> after everyone who was living ran out of the room
34:54 <Steven> or was dragged out
35:02 <Steven> so the flaming sphere just sat in the persons square
36:35 <Mekkis> who here is actually on bigpond?
36:58 <Mekkis> hmmm...
36:59 <Mekkis> noone
37:04 <Mekkis> I think Ulzef is
38:25 <Steven> i'd have thought you'd have added your thoughts to the playtest forums not whine about it months after it was over.
38:41 <Brunius> It's not about who is currently on bigpond
38:45 <Brunius> But the effect on new players
39:22 Brunius|M has quit (Quit: Bye)
39:24 <s_gmusic> wow....
39:33 Brunius|M ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
40:45 <Mekkis> Steven, I felt that my criticism wasn't constructive
41:47 <Mekkis> I don't think "We really don't need any new classes. I suggest you scrap the idea and instead clarify some of the rules that really need clarification - and work on fixing some of the balance issues" would be appreciated.
42:34 <Steven> well you should have said that...
42:44 <Mekkis> seriously?
43:13 <Mekkis> even I can see that that would be unconstructive
43:30 <Mekkis> is this a Ballig I see before me?
44:12 <Steven> well paizo listens to their player base a fair bit, im sure they would have read it and completely disregarded it in pursuit of profits.
44:53 <Mekkis> and I can understand that
46:08 <Mekkis> they are a company, and they do need profits
47:10 <Steven> http://paizo.com/threads/rzs2qr6u?ShakaUVMs-guide-to-playing-a-Necromancer-in-PFS
47:10 <Steven> that guys guide makes for a really boring necromancer imo

49:10 Brunius|M has quit (Quit: Bye)
49:17 <Steven> yup
49:21 Brunius|M ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
49:42 <Steven> yeah it was somebody who came over from the moscow store
49:46 <Mekkis> Steven, in the context of 'creative solutions', how do you handle the use of the Diplomacy skill?
50:01 <Steven> blah
50:01 <Steven> where they softball so much its not even funny.
50:13 <Steven> i hate when my internet connectivity drops out
50:39 <Steven> however i want
50:50 <Steven> i'm a free spirit man, cant bind me with rules!
51:53 <Steven> "Oh, i attacked you last turn, well let me move over to the other player and attack them.  the movement will provoke go ahead and take your AoO..."
52:03 <Steven> "Well damn you killed the bad guy..."
53:18 <Mekkis> For example, in Godsmarket Gamble, would you allow a sufficient check to turn the final boss from Hostile to Indifferent, followed by another check to convince the final boss to surrender?
54:33 <Steven> nah that bitch gotta go down!
56:24 <Mekkis> and as a GM, why would you rule that way?
56:38 <Steven> cause im not caring about this conversation.
56:41 <Brunius> Just gonna jump in here
56:49 <Brunius> That's meant to be a climatic final battle isn't it
56:59 <Mekkis> yes and no
57:09 <Brunius> If one player can go "I have +30 to diplomacy, I tell her we're bitchin' and she surrenders" that kind of wrecks it
57:43 <Mekkis> true htat
57:59 <Mekkis> tanks, Brunius?
58:28 <Brunius> Mekkis, I'm launching a communications network for a race of little green men with strangely cylindrical heads!
00:23 <Steven> so seriously what could a person say that would convince that chick to stop fighting?
04:29 <s_gmusic> :          |
07:25 <Avatar> comment
07:51 <Mekkis> "Look, Parani, we know everything that you've done; and we know that you've been a successful member of the Greycloaks. The fact is: if you keep shooting us, there's no way that you will leave Absalom alive, and you will end up wherever the godless go. Should you surrender, we will ensure that you receive a fair trial, and that you are protected from those who are wrathful to you. We are Pathfinders, who would have use for someone of your obvious talent
07:52 <Mekkis> s in obtaining artefacts.
08:30 <Steven> nah shes still gonna try to kill you.
11:43 <glacier> hi guys
11:46 <glacier> party hard guys
13:08 <Steven> no exaggeration 
28:59 <Avatar> I really should read up on the rules for dragging
29:08 <Avatar> I feel like it may be an underestimated combat maneuver
30:07 <Steven> its pretty awesome
30:44 <s_gmusic> happy day. my copy of Inner Sea Magic came in, and someone gave me a copy of the Inner Sea World guide.
31:27 <Steven> alright, going to go play some d3
27:18 <Phly> hello
29:11 <Mekkis> hey
30:18 <Phly> Been a long time since i've been around here, maybe about two years
31:36 <Mekkis> Steven, what about simply offering her sanctuary and wealth with the Pathfinder Society?
34:08 <Steven> she wouldnt believe it.
35:09 <Mekkis> so you're saying there'd be no way - short of a /charm person/ - to talk her out of attacking?
35:19 <Steven> no possible way.
36:13 <roflcustard> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BkeBgZcEZnQ
36:16 <diebot> roflcustard, How to take a Shit
36:37 <Steven> alright goin to play the mighty quest for epic loot
36:59 <Mekkis> Brunius, Avatar: would you agree?
37:49 <Brunius> I'd think it'd be situational
37:59 <Brunius> Most of the time, I wouldn't allow it.
39:14 <Mekkis> what if they had the ability to make diplomacy checks as a standard action?
45:02 <Steven> its verifying files.... blah
53:36 <Mekkis> Steven, would a supernatural ability to make diplomacy checks as a standard action change this?
58:36 <Avatar> umm
58:46 <Avatar> the "you can't diplomacise in combat" rule aside
59:00 <Avatar> you need to be super smart about that kind of thing
59:17 <Avatar> a +30 to diplomacy with we're bitching is obviously the opposite of that
59:23 <Avatar> I assume that's not what you're talking about
59:30 <Mekkis> technically you can, you just need to spend One Minute of continuous interaction
59:45 <Avatar> but what you think is a fantastic creative solution and what actually is a fantastic creative solution may be two different things
00:20 <Mekkis> I'm trying to work out of a diplomacy-based character would work
00:28 <Avatar> if you want to try it, I'd say try it, but know the point where you know diplomacy isn't going to be an option
00:33 <Mekkis> who could Actually talk his way out of combat situations
00:45 <Avatar> a rogue?
01:20 <Mekkis> more likely a paladin or cleric
01:35 <Mekkis> actually... Kernigahn could try that
03:40 <Avatar> you can't really diplomacise an ooze
03:58 <Avatar> you know, for example
08:52 <Mekkis> !spell dream

08:58 <diebot> The description is too long to send over IRC. View http://nl.ti4200.info/vpsirc/spells/dream.html
29:54 <Avatar> what do you guys think of the rpg superstar module pitches
30:43 <Avatar> which one is phly again
32:54 <s_gmusic> I haven't looked at anything related to superstar. :\
42:32 <s_gmusic> is there good stuff there or junk?
47:33 <Steven> so hot in my house
54:03 <Avatar> http://www.d20pfsrd.com/magic-items/wondrous-items/wondrous-items/e-g/gauntlet-inheritor-s-gauntlet
54:14 <Avatar> is that a good enough reason to abandon reach and go with a greatsword
56:37 <Mekkis> oh wow
56:53 <Mekkis> Avatar, do any of your characters worship Erastil?
02:25 <roflcustard> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tatl1PBYim4
02:26 <diebot> roflcustard, Crazy Aboriginal VS Bogan
14:48 <Steven> erastil pretty cool dude... you know... for a god who doesnt like whores.
25:19 <s_gmusic> wonder how many ways there are to become a Venture Captain in-game. I know of one, but not sure if there's others.
27:21 <Steven> there is 1
28:24 <Mekkis> matches a lot of the population
28:53 <s_gmusic> so only one.... and I think I already blew my chances at it. blarg. :(
58:15 <Mekkis_T41> http://www.latimes.com/business/technology/la-fi-tn-1-10-americans-html-std-study-finds-20140304,0,1188415.story#axzz2v1X0Ct00
24:09 <Steven> maybe when the next part comes out.
28:55 <s_gmusic> bonekeep, you mean? I'll have to take a look at that.
29:04 <Mekkis> Avatar, that depends. Do you really want to worship Iomodae?
29:18 <Steven> why would i mean bonekeep?
29:25 <s_gmusic> idunno.
29:46 <s_gmusic> tired and trying to frankenstein together a way to run apple apps on my android tablet
30:15 <Steven> i cant wait till my wizard becomes a VC
30:51 <Steven> Venture Captain Ahtuz, Signifier of Cheliax, Gluttonous Necromancer of Geb.
31:08 <Avatar> no not really
31:23 <Avatar> I will if the abilites are good though
31:31 <s_gmusic> heh.
32:03 <s_gmusic> I only wanted to get VC on a character for the new character thing.
34:49 <Steven> well that boon is not related to being the VC.
35:26 <s_gmusic> did I misread it?
36:42 <s_gmusic> the protege thing reads like it's part of the vc boon
36:46 <Steven> oh damn it is.
36:51 <Steven> well aint that a bitch and a half.
38:20 <s_gmusic> :(
38:42 <Steven> well my suggestion is to GM it.
38:59 <Steven> my VC bought the lodge
39:57 <Steven> its really quite broken
42:49 <Steven> i got mine for 17 Prestige
43:34 <s_gmusic> how'd you manage to reduce it by 8?
44:23 <Steven> boon
44:43 <s_gmusic> another one? I know having the title makes it 25 instead of 50.
45:17 <Steven> yup another one
45:32 <s_gmusic> oh well
47:36 <Steven> last adventure i got 2 Lookouts and a Foreign Contact
47:59 <Steven> lookouts kept guard while i slept
48:15 <Steven> two rolls at 1d20+16 Perception
48:24 <Steven> i was not surprised during combat
49:17 <Steven> pretty awesome 4PP
51:42 <Steven> alright goin to sleep
