00:22:26 <Avatar> Sesquipedalix
00:22:35 <Avatar> I've finally found someone who chooses worse character names than you mekkis
00:24:24 <Mekkis> Yourself?
00:26:26 <Avatar> no
00:26:43 <Avatar> I don't know name my characters Sesquipedalix or similar !!
00:46:02 <Steven> well that thread is a bunch of stupid as far as i an tell.
00:48:11 <Avatar> what is a bunch of stupid
00:48:32 <Steven> the thread brunius linked.
00:57:32 <andrey> complaining about skewed gender representation is stupid?
01:44:43 <Steven> hey.
01:44:45 <Steven> i'm back.
01:45:04 <Steven> my migraine got bad, so i took one of my prescription pills.
01:45:08 <Steven> so now i am all goofy.
01:46:00 <Steven> so i've decided my next character i build
01:46:05 <Steven> he is going to be my suicide bomber
01:46:44 <Steven> and its going to be all GM credit so i never actually play it at a table.
01:47:37 <Steven> mostly because it is horribly offensive.
01:51:19 <s_gmusic> lol
01:51:44 <Steven> and if i ever play at a table with Brock
01:51:59 <Steven> that is when i will play it... so he can tell me to never play it again lol
01:52:16 <s_gmusic> is it "bad stereotype" offensive or "RAWRG POWER" offensive?
01:57:23 <Steven> bad stereotype... but also a bit of the other
02:03:09 <Steven> he literally carpet bombs rooms.
02:08:12 <s_gmusic> http://www.crunchyroll.com/store/p/33062/D-Arts-Megaman-X-Ultimate-Armor
02:08:33 <s_gmusic> wrong channel. :\
02:16:17 <Steven> yo, what up.
02:49:01 <Avatar> I still don't understand what a bunch of stupid actually is
02:49:35 <Steven> a group of people all being stupid
02:50:06 <Avatar> stupidity ?
02:50:10 <Avatar> I think is the word
02:52:22 <Steven> no
02:52:28 <Steven> this is a bunch of stupid.
02:52:54 <Avatar> that statement in itself is stupid though
02:53:34 <Steven> exactly, that is how stupid these people are, they infect everything with it.
03:00:10 <Brunius> Care to back that up at all?
03:03:03 <Steven> why would i want to spend time doing that... i wasted enough time on it reading it.
03:09:15 <andrey> has anyone played with variant hit-point rules?
03:10:38 <Steven> not me.
03:14:19 <Steven> after reading them it is more creative than regular hit points
03:24:13 <Avatar> what are variant hit point rules
03:24:22 <Avatar> there's about 4 different variants in the rules
03:27:41 <Steven> so evasion
03:27:42 <Steven> or
03:27:44 <Steven> Nimble (Ex): The master chymist’s lithe physical frame gives her an alchemical bonus on all Dexterity checks, Dexterity skill checks, and CMD, and a natural armor bonus to her Armor Class. The bonus is equal to half the master chymist’s class level.
03:28:50 <Steven> i'm thinkin nimble.
03:32:49 <Steven> but i'd rather have hit points.
03:32:52 <Steven> also... 1st level of Sleepless detective has been taken.
03:34:57 <Mekkis> Shut down my PC today. 180 Windows updates
03:38:54 <Steven> 13k and a feat to spend... time to delve into the books.
03:59:28 <Brunius> fun fun
04:02:33 <Mekkis> here's a question: What are you supposed to do with a perfectly functional 'old' PC?
04:08:20 <Avatar> let it gather dust
04:13:08 <Mekkis> Brunius, WRT to your comment at 1347, That's because you have a good VC who cares about that sort of thing.
05:09:09 <Mekkis> moin
05:24:20 <Brunius> swagga
05:24:22 <Brunius> yo
05:24:27 <Brunius> what up in the hood
05:24:29 <Brunius> dawg
05:24:37 <Brunius> (am I cool yet)
05:26:08 <Avatar> nope
05:26:19 <Avatar> what is pfs exposed
05:27:59 <Mekkis> nope
05:28:05 <Brunius> :'(
05:28:09 <Mekkis> but 5 points for effort
05:29:56 <Avatar> sup dawg
05:41:45 Andros414 is now known as s_gmusic
06:13:37 <Avatar> if I said yes would you still be here
06:25:25 <Avatar> I want to say evasion
06:25:32 <Avatar> but nimble has like 10 benefits there
06:25:39 <Avatar> like that is even a fair contest

16:49:00 <Soliloquy> Hi
16:49:17 <Soliloquy> Is it always this silent? or have I come at a bad time?
16:50:45 <Avatar> you came in at the tail end of a workday
16:52:06 <Soliloquy> So does it get busier after work or during?
16:52:18 <Brunius> after
16:52:42 <Soliloquy> Ah good. I am making tea right now but I will hang around afterwards.
16:52:45 <Brunius> A couple of people have government jobs that actually block IRC, and I try to actually pay attention in school these days
16:53:19 <Soliloquy> Thats good to hear most people only go online during work, it can get frustrating at weekends
16:54:26 <Avatar> what do you mean
16:54:38 <Avatar> shouldn't it be better after hours
16:56:33 <Brunius> That's good to hear COMMA
16:56:40 <Brunius> is how I think it's meant to be
16:57:44 <Soliloquy> That would be correct, forgive me I am running back and forth to the kitchen.
16:59:14 <Soliloquy> I hope you aren't checking my spelling too?
16:59:34 <Brunius> None of it's wrong, is it?
16:59:52 <Brunius> Most of us don't care, but Mekkis can get quite worked up if you get too bad
17:00:25 <Avatar> ie. nobody cares about your punctuation
17:00:31 <Soliloquy> Ah so to annoy Mekkis I jus mak lots o err'rs
17:01:12 <Soliloquy> Not that I wish to annoy Mekkis of course.
17:03:58 <Brunius> don't lie
17:04:08 <Brunius> everyone wants to annoy mekkis from time to time
17:05:59 <Soliloquy> I shall bear that in mind, but I always try to take people as I find them, I guess I will see.
17:06:18 <Soliloquy> So do you all play every evening or only at the weekends?

17:40:25 <Soliloquy> So how did you change your address to is.a.stalker?
17:42:01 <Soliloquy> Is that the FREE vhosts thing? After 30 days of a registered nick?
17:42:25 <Soliloquy> Only 29 more days to go then.
17:44:12 <s_gmusic|work> read somewhere that there's a thing that gives WIS instead of STR for to-hit and damage. anyone know? can't seem to find anything.

17:49:56 <Soliloquy> I just noticed the "Notice from Brunius" what is that? a private message? It's been too many years since I used IRC I can't remember a thing.
17:53:16 <s_gmusic> good PFS session tonight. got my Zen Archer to level 8 and have 14kgp to spend on it.
17:57:22 <Mekkis> annoying me?
17:57:34 <Soliloquy> Who me? already?
17:58:03 <Brunius> Well, you seem annoyed and give the whole "the only way I can judge you is based on your writing skills, and so far you seem like an idiot" speech
17:58:16 <Mekkis> Brunius, I would argue that a colon would be better...
17:59:08 <Soliloquy> Not if it was inflamed.
17:59:15 <Brunius> eyyyy
17:59:31 <s_gmusic|work> nvm. found it in a non-legal source.

20:03:17 <Mekkis> Stuff has been going on down there
20:04:21 <Avatar> nobody was left brunius
20:05:23 <s_gmusic|work> ah.
20:05:43 <s_gmusic|work> was curious, because last I heard from him, he was working on an android app for herolab.

20:14:18 <Mekkis> hmm... if you want a snake-themed character, seems good
20:19:51 <s_gmusic|work> got gold to spend for my martial artist. was saving for Monk's Robe, but looking for other things before I get it. figure there's likely better things I could get for 13k

20:36:26 <Soliloquy> Hi
21:01:46 <s_gmusic|Work> RAWRG
21:01:51 <s_gmusic|Work> that sucked!
21:02:13 <s_gmusic|Work> Bound by Flame wasn't worth the time I spent on it.
22:21:26 <s_gmusic|work> Dervish Dance doesn't look too bad. the "no off-hand weapon or shield" restriction hurts a little bit, though.
22:24:03 <Mekkis> hi....
22:24:24 <Soliloquy> Hi Mekkis
22:24:51 <Mekkis> do you play D&D/Pathfinder?
22:24:58 <Soliloquy> I was just about to go, what is a good time to return if I am interested in learning to play?
22:25:21 <Soliloquy> I am trying to learn but no I have never played any RP before.
22:25:29 <Mekkis> around 1800 AEST, someone is normally around
22:26:04 <Soliloquy> I read on the website it might be possible to observe a game is that so?
22:27:26 <Mekkis> should be.
22:27:46 <Mekkis> I plan on running this weekend, assuming everyone can make it
22:28:03 <Soliloquy> So who do I need to speak to in order to arrange that? I assume the games are not run in this channel but rather in private rooms.
22:28:33 <Mekkis> They're generally run in this channel.
22:28:45 <Mekkis> Although if there are more than one table, we'll split it
22:29:12 <Soliloquy> Ah really, I assumed all these people logged in and yet silent were actually off playing elsewhere.
22:29:39 <Soliloquy> Do you get many beginners?
22:29:53 <Mekkis> that is often the case. I'm logged in 24/7, and a lot of my Pathfinder is offline :)
22:29:58 <Mekkis> Quite a few.
22:30:51 <Soliloquy> It's such a steep learning curve. Isigned up for a pbp forum and have been learning there but its hard when you don't have a real life group to chat with.
22:30:54 <Mekkis> DarkKapo, Avatar and Brunius all started Pathfinder here.
22:31:01 <Mekkis> yeah.
22:31:36 <Steven> though if someone comes in with the name #420bonghitsforjesusgreenpartyblazeitfagget
22:31:49 <Steven> i think i'd be the only one to say hello before they were kicked from the room.
22:32:04 <Soliloquy> I stumbled on this place by accident searching for more places where I might learn. I hope I might be able to fit in somewhere.
22:32:32 <Mekkis> By all means, you can listen in on the game on Saturday...
22:32:59 <Soliloquy> That is excellent thank you.
22:33:19 <Soliloquy> So you only run one game at a time?
22:34:04 <Mekkis> if there are multiple games, we'll split to another channel. In here that doesn't happen much
22:34:28 <Soliloquy> and how often do you run games?
22:34:59 <Mekkis> I'm running Way of the Wicked on a fortnightly basis
22:35:09 <s_gmusic|Work> 23000gp on a level 6 martial artist. what to buy?
22:35:27 <Soliloquy> Wow not very often at all then, my timing was pretty good.
22:35:39 <Mekkis> but I'm in here 24/7 :S
22:36:23 <Soliloquy> Well I will stay logged in. In case I can learn something from the logs but I am going to have to go.
22:36:48 <Mekkis> no problem, by all means say something around 1000 on saturday'
22:36:50 <Soliloquy> It was good to meet you, thanks for the info and the invite for Saturday.
22:37:17 <Soliloquy> Will do, thanks again. Bye.
22:37:27 <Mekkis> see you around

22:43:16 <Avatar> dervish dance made that character viable again
22:44:16 <Mekkis> 1.2 Billion transistors
22:44:49 <Steven> i've been considering getting my amulet of mighty fists the furyborn enchant.
22:47:03 <s_gmusic|work> so you just upgraded your processor, mekkis?
22:47:10 <Mekkis> and motherboard
22:47:12 <Mekkis> and RAM
22:47:54 <s_gmusic|work> 8GB RAM or more?
22:48:46 <s_gmusic|Work> that... looks hilarious.
22:48:51 <Mekkis> 16GB
22:48:59 <Mekkis> 11-11-11-28 timings
22:49:02 <s_gmusic|Work> question, though.
22:49:16 <Steven> suuuuuuuuuuuup
22:49:17 <Mekkis> I could probably tighten them. The RAM's at 1.35V, so there's a lot of headroom
22:49:29 <s_gmusic|Work> it says "each time the wielder deals damage to a single foe", so would that mean each hit from a flurry would increase it?
22:49:59 <s_gmusic|Work> should all 3 hits from a flurry deal damage, each is a separate damage roll. makes sense it would
22:50:11 <Mekkis> also got around to putting an SSD in
22:50:13 <Steven> you resolve them iteratively
22:51:10 <Steven> so if you have 5 attacks
22:51:16 <Steven> and they all hit
22:51:47 <Steven> next round when you hit that creature you get +6 to hit and damage.
22:51:58 <s_gmusic|work> that's good. OS-only or gonna run games from it, too?
22:52:12 <s_gmusic|Work> first hit has no bonus, second is +1, third is +2, fourth is +3, last is +4 enhancement. correct?
22:52:16 <Steven> yup
22:52:31 <Mekkis> Probably OS only. It's pretty small
22:52:45 <s_gmusic|work> fair enough. how's the graphics card?
22:52:56 <Steven> sorry that +6 is supposed to be a 5
22:53:10 <Steven> i was staring at it thinking that it was just an odd looking 5
22:53:21 <Mekkis> hasn't changed. 7850 or something
22:55:13 <s_gmusic|work> careful. your graphics card could get jealous and start crashing on you since you didn't upgrade it. :P
22:55:40 <Mekkis> shit happens
22:57:36 <s_gmusic|Work> heh
22:59:18 <s_gmusic|Work> +2 AMoF is only 16000. not horrible
22:59:22 <s_gmusic|work> heh
22:59:29 <Steven> ghost touch is pretty sweet.
23:01:11 <s_gmusic|Work> ew. Speed enhancement is +3.
23:01:46 <Steven> it is pretty spendy.
23:03:07 <Steven> a monk's robe is pretty awesome.
23:03:54 <s_gmusic|Work> was looking at Boots of Speed, but that'd leave me only 11k to spend. also, don't have any belts, rings, necklaces, bracers or anything on this character. only purchase since level 1 was a Temple Sword and Headband of WIS +2.
23:04:03 <s_gmusic|work> headin' home
23:04:14 <Steven> well buy a headband +4 and a monks robe
23:05:02 <s_gmusic|Work> upgrade headband, sure. still not seeing it for a monk's robe.
23:05:31 <s_gmusic|Work> that's the main reason why I have so much gold, it's because I was saving it for the robe
23:06:02 <Steven> its +5 level for ac and unarmed damage.
23:07:00 <s_gmusic|Work> I know
23:07:23 <Steven> you should be able to afford it.
23:08:26 <Steven> and its better then getting the upgrade to your headband.
23:08:53 <Steven> its always +1 damage dice size and +1 AC.
23:09:14 <s_gmusic|Work> currently, it only adds +1 AC and increases my damage die from 1d8 to 1d10
23:09:40 <s_gmusic|Work> i have the fame and gp for it, just not sure if there isn't a better option for the gold
23:10:12 <Steven> there really isnt.
23:10:18 <Steven> there are utility options
23:10:38 <Steven> but its +1 AC and on average +1 damage.
23:13:19 <Steven> and that is pretty kick ass for 13k
23:15:31 <s_gmusic|Work> could get the same for 6k, though. just spend 4k on a +1 AMoF and 2k on a Ring of Protection +1
23:16:30 <Steven> OR you could get a monks shirt, ring of prot +1, and an AoMF for 19k and net +2 average damage, +2 AC and have 1k left over.
23:20:26 <s_gmusic|Work> where do you find that "Monk's shirt" ?
23:20:54 <Steven> its the monk's robe.
23:21:47 <Steven> i'll brb i think i need to take some meds... this headache is fuckin with my ability to think right.
23:22:29 <s_gmusic|Work> np
23:47:17 <Brunius> "Paizo material has always been like that. They've also had a saccharine transgender lesbian paladin couple, but that may be trying a little too hard to cram as many hits on the inclusiveness scale into one NPC."
