07:09:38 <Mekkis> When I was picked, I was the only person who chose an affirmation over an oath
07:10:10 <Avatar> wow
07:10:53 <Mekkis> Personally, I think it is a great life experience to sit on a jury
07:13:21 <Avatar> yeah they asked for volunteers to come in today, yesterday, and the volunteers were leaving first
07:13:31 <Avatar> and I heard woman who was still sitting down say "they just volunteered so they could leave!"
07:13:49 <Mekkis> wow
07:14:11 <Mekkis> they didn't do that for me. It was "numbers 100 through 180 must come in tomorrow".
07:14:34 <Avatar> we had about 350 people in because there was a long trial available
07:14:36 <Mekkis> Had to call some phone number at 1630 every day to see if I'd be required the following day
07:14:50 <Avatar> yeah same thing applies here
07:14:58 <Avatar> this is a follow-up day

16:06:35 <Philderbeast> at least you have pizza
16:21:09 <Steven> yeah...
16:21:23 <Steven> i'm also coordinating our group for this homebrew.
16:21:28 <Steven> make sure we have all our bases covered.
16:21:52 <Philderbeast> well if your using hero lab they should be able to use there tablets soon
16:22:26 <Steven> i dont use herolabs
16:22:50 <Philderbeast> fair enough
16:23:13 <Philderbeast> im just putting the finishing touches on the app before putting it on the play store :)
16:23:44 <Steven> i even have realmworks and dont use it.
16:24:38 <Philderbeast> same lol
16:25:01 <Philderbeast> way to much efforts putting a whole AP in realmworks
16:25:51 <Steven> seriously. Wish i could just download a complete version of an AP.
16:26:31 <Steven> because i dont want to Type all that shit in just to get Sheleliu or whatever her name is for the Rise of the Runelords AP.
16:27:07 <Steven> just so they can know hey this chick has daddy issues with a guy who was never her father but just a cool guy who hit it and quit it with her mom.
16:31:14 <Philderbeast> yep thats what im waiting for as well

17:17:22 <Steven> woot woot... we got a rogue in the party.
17:17:37 <Steven> so party is Druid, hunter, Oracle, Wizard Rogue.
17:18:08 <Steven> should be a decently solid party.
17:18:19 <Steven> The Wizard is going to be doing the Wood School.
17:19:08 <Steven> probably have a 18 or 20 int. So he gets this spear thing where he can shoot a spear using his int mod to hit and dealing 1d6+int for damage.

17:23:28 <Steven> the 'downside' is it attacks vs AC
17:29:01 <Steven> i seriously wish i hadn't taken a nap this afternoon.
17:29:36 <Steven> I dont have anything left to do... i already did my solo read of the scenarios for Gencon... well the ones i have.

20:35:10 <Avatar> what app is he talking about
20:35:31 * Steven shrug
20:35:49 <Steven> something to do with hero labs i think
20:35:55 <s_gmusic> philderbeast made an android app that reads Hero Lab portfolio files.
20:36:03 <Avatar> what's that
20:36:08 <Avatar> portfolio file
20:36:22 <s_gmusic> it's what saves all your character information in a single file.
20:36:25 <Avatar> did he tell anyone what the app is called :P
20:36:39 <s_gmusic> https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.philderbeast.herolabportfolioviewer
20:36:58 <Avatar> nice, good on him
20:36:59 <s_gmusic> havn't tested it yet, though. don't want to get out my other laptop. :\
20:37:26 <Avatar> I can't bring myself to use herolab
20:37:36 <Avatar> you need to pay for it to get more than core functionality don't you
20:37:45 <Avatar> core rulebook*
20:41:20 <s_gmusic> the initial purchase for $30 gets you 2 licenses for different devices (laptops, ipads, etc.) the Core Rule Book, and Inner Sea World Guide. Other Hardcover books (like Ultimate Combat or Advanced Race Guide) are $10 each. the small splat books (Blood of Angels, People of the North, etc.) come in bundles. Each bundle is 4 books or so and costs $5 a group.
20:41:43 <Avatar> you had me at initial purchase for $30
20:41:57 <Avatar> I mean cmon
20:42:18 <Avatar> for free, I can download the masterwork tools app for all the rulebooks, and then write my own character sheet
20:43:55 <s_gmusic> yeah. it can get difficult doing it by yourself. I've mostly seen people buy it as a group. you can buy extra licenses, so everyone in the group would divide up the total cost for All The Things, including the extra licenses, and reduce the total cost each person pays.
20:44:17 <Avatar> what's difficult about it
20:44:26 <Avatar> difficult if you're brand new and nobody is around to help
20:45:20 <s_gmusic> well there's cost, and then there's using it. not all of the functions are as easy to use as they would like.
20:46:38 <s_gmusic> things get a little funky for me when I'm buying or upgrading some gear, so I don't bother with using HL to track my gold and prestige.
20:51:04 <Avatar> do you mean it's difficult using herolab?
20:51:11 <Avatar> or difficult creating a character yourself?
20:51:55 <Steven> !throw 5d6
20:51:56 <diebot> Steven, 5d6: [5d6=6,2,4,6,5] 23
20:52:08 <Steven> well that is a hell of a 5d6 really.
20:52:46 <s_gmusic> most of it is fairly straight-forward. only thing that catches me is working on custom gear
21:00:14 <s_gmusic> that's probably more of a "me" thing, though, than any part of Hero Lab
21:05:09 <Avatar> are you talking pfs? what is custom gear

22:24:02 <s_gmusic> when you enchant or upgrade your weapon/armor/item/etc.
22:25:12 <s_gmusic> HeroLab lists it as "Custom Weapon" and brings up a separate dialogue window to key in the enchantments on it. then, you have to make sure to hit the correct buttons for it to calculate the gold cost correctly.
22:25:20 <Steven> gonna rock me a +1 Countering Valiant Impervious Aldori Dueling Sword

22:39:43 <Mekkis> if you can't create a character without herolab, you probably shouldn't be using herolab
