02:46 <Avatar> yo
04:10 <Damalon01> hey Av
04:26 <Damalon01> have you got a minute?
06:14 <Avatar> soitanly
07:33 <Damalon01> i got Jason's OK so im ready to setup the next game im gonna run on Balligs site
09:17 <Damalon01> would Sunday at midday be ok with you?
11:54 <Avatar> ummm
11:57 <Avatar> saturday is better
12:02 <Avatar> do you want sunday
12:54 <Damalon01> hmm i might be able to manage Saturday
13:18 <Damalon01> ill call jason, be a minute
13:21 <Avatar> playing on sundays just feels like the game eats the weekend
15:52 <Avatar> ready to be scheduled when you've got it sorted
18:03 <Damalon01> hes not answering his phone.
19:23 <Avatar> does he respond to texts
19:39 <Avatar> mate sometimes my phone rings and I go goddamn who is calling me this time ! and dont' answer it
19:57 <Avatar> businesses should use messaging
20:08 <Damalon01> usually he answers if hes able. ill try again a bit later.
24:46 <Damalon01> ill be back later
32:46 <Avatar> did you guys finish way of the wicked?
46:21 <s_gmusic> so... just finished watching Transformers 4. no worse than the first trilogy. John Goodman did a voice for it, so that's a plus. came across as a bit preachy, though.
46:52 <Avatar> I can't bring myself to watch any of the transformers sequels
47:02 <Avatar> even though I thought the first one was decent
50:57 <s_gmusic> Watch the 4th, if you think you can. it takes place about 5 years after the trilogy, so there's a plot connection to get it started, then it goes on its own.
57:09 <Avatar> well I can watch any of them
57:18 <Avatar> but the 2nd and 3rd got some bad press
57:37 <Avatar> I'm not sure if they were good or not, I just don't care about them
57:49 <Avatar> I didn't really care about transformers in the first place, I was surprised I liked the first one as much as I did
22:30 <Damalon01> back and I still havent gotten through to Jason
22:42 <Damalon01> is it possible for you to play on sunday Av?
22:51 <Avatar> yeah
23:08 <Damalon01> ok could you schedule the game for midday sunday please?
23:27 <Avatar> done
23:32 <Damalon01> thank you
27:02 <Damalon01> Will you take your pally Judas? is he level 4?
32:25 <Avatar> ah, oops, no, he's 3 still

46:01 Topic for #d&d set by Avatar at Wed Sep 17 19:47:44 2014
50:16 <Damalon01> Youre gonna run Scars of a Third Crusade Tony? have you run it before?
50:48 <Avatar> no but I played it with you
51:10 <Avatar> the slot zeroes don't necessarily mean the GM of that game will GM it again for realzies
51:17 <Avatar> just someone at that table
54:18 <Damalon01> okey dokey
54:48 <Damalon01> i was gonna say if youre gonna run it, some aduvce: check out the forums for it on the Paizo site
55:09 <Damalon01> they talk alot about preps you can make and holes in the scenario
55:23 <Mekkis> Umm.. In Pathfinder, is the ethereal plane coexistent with the material?
55:59 <Mekkis> Damalon01, it's a good starting point, but no substitute for running it before you're required to at a con.'
02:27 <Damalon01> ayup youre Mekkis
02:46 <Damalon01> right
05:24 <Avatar> yeah man I always look at the forums
05:34 <Avatar> when I go to work, I don't really work, I just go to paizo.com
05:56 <Avatar> I used to get lost on paizo.com but now it is like second nature
11:22 <Damalon01> lol wish i could get work like that
06:35 <Damalon01> well im off
07:52 <Brunius> <Brunius> Anyone want 10% off stronghold crusader 2?
07:53 <Brunius> <Brunius> or 50% off hotline miami?
07:57 <Brunius> on steam to be clear
36:03 <Avatar> never heard of stronghold
36:12 <Avatar> hotline miami is a shithot game that I think everyone already has
40:13 <s_gmusic> don't got it. don't got steam
43:47 <Avatar> what do you mean you don't got steam
43:51 <Avatar> everyone's got steam
09:55 <s_gmusic> nope
14:28 <Avatar> mate get it
23:37 <Damalon01> when my mate Jason confirm or denies his readiness for this weekend ill ask you to set up the game on the site
23:44 <Avatar> yep
23:57 <Damalon01> yeah i looked for your name at Unicon
24:14 <Damalon01> i only saw you on the special, which im debateing going to
24:25 <Avatar> the special is the best they've had
24:36 <Avatar> I played a slot zero of it and was very imperssed
24:39 <Avatar> impressed*
24:51 <Avatar> I played a 10-11 with 5 players
25:06 <Avatar> it doesn't have 4 player scaling
25:07 <Damalon01> really? i checked out the reviews and they seemed a little conflicted.  2-4 stars.
25:16 <Avatar> yeah I don't know what the reviews are on about
25:23 <Damalon01> hmmm
25:30 <Damalon01> now im more tmepted to go
25:31 <Avatar> the only issue we had was that it ran super long, but that's not supposed to happen
25:54 <Avatar> ask the others for advice if you're not sure
26:06 <Avatar> andrei, jena, daniel, stephen or john g
26:10 <Damalon01> im sure length will be no problem at the Convention, stephen has lined up like 9 hours for it
26:20 <Avatar> well there's supposed to be a timer for it
26:25 <Avatar> during the slot zero we ignored it a little bit
26:31 <Damalon01> yurp
26:35 <Avatar> and we played the optional encounter out because 3 of them were screaming to do it
26:43 <Avatar> not realising how not-far into it we were
27:34 <Avatar> the other scenarios I opted to GM weren't season 5 ones, except for scars of the third crusade, and aleksia is already doing one table of that
27:41 <Damalon01> see my reason for hesitation is that i didnt like 'Race for the Runecarved Key' and 'Seige of the Diamond City'. or at least there were facets of those two i didnt like, enough to give them bad reviews.
27:55 <Avatar> yeah stonelords is better than those
28:05 <Damalon01> interesting
28:07 <Avatar> the mythic stuff at the end of siege was shit
28:18 <Damalon01> yeah i really hated that
28:23 <Avatar> race for the runecarved key had a good plot, but it was messy
28:40 <Damalon01> i hated the last 1/4 of it, i hated it so very much
28:51 <Avatar> yeah there is no mythic garbage in stonelords
28:58 <Damalon01> well thats good
29:05 <Avatar> I don't think it really feels 'unfair'
29:08 <Avatar> at any point
29:20 <Damalon01> ill talk to my mate bazz and see what he think/wants to do
29:31 <Avatar> not to say it isn't tough, it is
29:34 <Avatar> but not 'unfair' tough
29:57 <Damalon01> yeah seems like specials are always made to be as challenging as possible
30:32 <Avatar> if you have a table of 6 and you're prepared it should be alright
31:00 <Damalon01> if i play ill probs play with mah cleric, my strongest pfs character atm
33:41 <Damalon01> hey your gonna play 'Trail by Machine' with mah Av!
33:53 <Avatar> yeah that is a good table
34:30 <Avatar> ulzef and daniel, with john d GMing
34:57 <Avatar> paths we choose is the other important one to play
35:03 <Avatar> but that's faction dependent
35:15 <Avatar> I don't really understand how it will be organised
35:24 <Damalon01> Im gonna play Paths at an online convention a week after Unicon
35:35 <Avatar> what online convention???????
35:41 <Damalon01> VirtuaCon
35:48 <Avatar> that sounds familiar
36:01 <Damalon01> i played at VirtuaCon last year
36:10 <Damalon01> its chaotic but fun
36:17 <Damalon01> and theres prizes!!
36:45 <Avatar> yeah online cons seem great for prizes
36:45 <Damalon01> i won a prize for best player last year, 3 months free membership on rolld20
36:52 <Avatar> I seem to win something everytime I play in one
36:56 <Damalon01> :)
37:33 <Avatar> is it on warhorn?
38:08 <Damalon01> no i dont think VirtuaCon is on warhorn
38:46 <Damalon01> its not just PFS, in fact PFS seems minimal this year
39:01 <Damalon01> http://www.rpggeek.com/wiki/page/Virtuacon14
39:06 <Damalon01> if your interested
40:06 <Avatar> this seems very badly organised
40:32 <Damalon01> like i said chaotic
12:46 <Avatar> I really can't make head or tail of this
13:42 <Avatar> http://time.is/UTC
13:44 <Avatar> that's pretty cool
15:19 <Avatar> oh right, it's all part of the G+ community
17:27 <Damalon01> yeah, signing up is all handled on G+
18:30 <Damalon01> i do like the chart they have on RPGgeek to help explain the timezones with which game slot your looking for
18:43 <Avatar> 7am game is a bit harsh
18:49 <Avatar> and people yell at me when I run games at 9am !
18:52 <Damalon01> the whole thing is designed to be going 24 hours
19:01 <Damalon01> yeah! 
19:12 <Damalon01> some of the games start at like 5 am for aus
19:20 <Damalon01> like i said 24 hour Con
19:41 <Avatar> any idea where the GM is located
19:44 <Avatar> or the other players
19:50 <Damalon01> since its run for a worldwide viewpoint, so theres games for all timezones
20:03 <Damalon01> multiple gms and timezones
20:12 <Damalon01> depeding on what game your talking about
20:17 <Avatar> 6-05
20:26 <Damalon01> argh i think thats america
20:32 <Avatar> I could only find that one and paths we choose
20:55 <Damalon01> theres a game of the Confirmation too but its at like 5 am or something
21:37 <Avatar> you can get confirmation run anytime
21:42 <Avatar> replayable tier 1
21:54 <Avatar> or 2
22:17 <Avatar> what level are your guys
24:18 <Damalon01> Jason has a level 2 Magus and Bazz has a level 3 druid and level 1 bard
24:38 <Damalon01> i was thinking about running the confirmation again for jason before he hits level 3
24:47 <Damalon01> so he can get his free watfinder
24:57 <Damalon01> wayfinder
25:33 <Avatar> I've only run it once before, haven't actually played it yet
25:51 <Avatar> I've got a level 1 investigator I can dig up I think
26:12 <Avatar> ug no he's level 2
26:35 <Avatar> too many characters
26:47 <Avatar> must be something else in the ACG that I can play
27:29 <Avatar> I'm not a huge fan of the other classes
27:39 <Avatar> arcanist, shaman and investigator were the only ones that grabbed me
28:04 <Damalon01> hehehe none of the ACG classes have grabbed me
28:52 <Avatar> you can't tell me the investigator doesn't sound interesting
29:19 <Avatar> or at least one of the million archetypes
29:34 <Avatar> maybe a bolt ace
30:44 <Avatar> FINALLY !
30:48 <Avatar> now what did I have to ask you
31:04 <Avatar> you recommended the unsworn shaman didn't you steven
31:18 <Steven> did i?
31:23 <Avatar> was that you
31:46 <Avatar> or was it a different one
32:25 <Avatar> ????????
32:55 <Steven> iunno
33:09 <Avatar> are you okay
33:20 <Steven> yeah... just had a migraine all day.
33:39 <Avatar> ug
34:43 <Steven> i dont remember exactly why i suggested this one.
35:33 <Avatar> I can't tell if sacrificing some of the spirit stuff is a big deal
35:40 <Avatar> because it seems like you get it anyway
36:29 <Steven> i like the spirit guide
36:42 <Avatar> and some people are suggesting you can't take anything that requires you to have the hex ability, because it has minor spirit which "replaces hex", even though it still gives you hexes
46:07 <Steven> yeah spirit guide is probably my favorite archetype from the ACG
46:55 <Avatar> do you mean spirit warden
47:17 <Steven> no
47:28 <Steven> http://www.d20pfsrd.com/classes/base-classes/oracle/archetypes/paizo---oracle-archetypes/spirit-guide
47:46 <Avatar> no I am playing a shaman !
48:44 <Steven> so... 
49:00 <Steven> spirit guide is pretty awesome.
49:15 <Avatar> I am pretty sure you recommended unsworn shaman
49:23 <Steven> i dont remember doin that.
49:26 <Avatar> this sounds like something of a devious trick
55:28 <Steven> i just dont remember suggesting it mang.
55:32 <Steven> happens.
05:32 <Steven> my character is done!
05:34 <Steven> https://drive.google.com/file/d/0BwFtjAun89SiQVBaRFJ2a2ttUVE/edit?usp=sharing
05:57 <Steven> for kingmaker.
44:37 <Mekkis> What do you think about this:
44:38 <Mekkis> Belle's Mass Tattoo Removal (Necromancy [good])
44:38 <Mekkis> Bard 2, Cleric/oracle 2, Summoner 2
44:38 <Mekkis> Casting Time: 1 standard action
44:38 <Mekkis> Components: V, S
44:38 <Mekkis> Range: Medium (100' + 10' per level)
44:39 <Mekkis> Targets: One creature/level, no two of which can be more than 30' apart.
44:41 <Mekkis> Duration: 1 round/level
44:43 <Mekkis> Save: Will negates
44:45 <Mekkis> SR: yes
44:47 <Mekkis> A wave of holy energy surrounds any magical tattoos on the targets, and burns them off, and replaces them with new, unscarred skin.
03:13 <Steven> at 6th level I'll do 1d4+12+1d6+5d6 damage.
04:33 <Steven> with a +12 to attack.
58:53 <ishmael> yo yo yo
59:12 <ishmael> sup nerds
49:19 <Mekkis> !spell borrow skill
49:20 <diebot> Mekkis, BORROW SKILL transmutation ([]) bard 1 1 standard action Range: touch creature touched Comp: S Duration: up to 1 round/level (see description) Save: Will negates (harmless) SR:yes (harmless)Source: APG
49:20 <diebot> You borrow one of the target's known skills. After touching the subject, you can make a single check with the chosen skill using the subject's skill ranks, but modified by your own key ability. If you take longer than the spell's duration to make the check or the check requires more time, then it fails and you must use your own skill ranks (if
49:20 <diebot> any). If the borrowed skill is a class skill for you, you gain the +3 bonus on checks using that skill.
49:34 <Mekkis> !spell invigorate
49:35 <diebot> Mekkis, INVIGORATE illusion ([figment]) bard 1 1 standard action Range: touch creature touched Comp: V Duration: 10 minutes/level (D) Save: Will negates (harmless) SR:yes (harmless)Source: APG
49:35 <diebot> This spell banishes feelings of weariness. For the duration, the subject takes no penalties from the fatigued or exhausted conditions. The effect of invigorate is merely an illusion, however, not a substitute for actual rest or respite. When the spell ends, the subject takes 1d6 points of nonlethal damage, along with the return of the original
49:35 <diebot> condition(s). A creature can be under the effects of only one invigorate spell at a time; if it is cast a second time on that creature, the first immediately ends.
