00:33:28 <Spaceshot> bah, I need to make a new level 1 and nothing is jumping out at me, like I have some ideas, but nothing that is making me want to make a character
00:33:43 <Steven> a pirate.
00:34:14 <Spaceshot> nah, boring
00:34:17 <Spaceshot> boring/overdone
00:35:06 <Spaceshot> I'm looking through ACG and seeing if anything sparks my interest

01:38:14 <Avatar> working yo
01:38:26 <Avatar> a bunch of people in the paizo chat channel said that
01:38:32 <Avatar> are they wrong
01:39:12 <Steven> was one of them lisa stevens?
01:39:17 <Avatar> no
01:39:20 <Avatar> well I don't think so
01:39:32 <Avatar> unless her nickname is Pirate Rob
01:39:46 <Steven> nope isnt her.
01:40:29 <Avatar> they did seem like they knew what they were talking about
01:41:39 <Steven> if i was a business i wouldnt tell people im going to have a sale on a product they might buy today at full price.
01:42:32 <Steven> wait a month or so... maybe i'll get it for you for your birthday.
01:42:54 <Avatar> my birthday isn't until the end of july
01:43:23 <Steven> yeah maybe it will be on sale by then as well... who knows.
01:43:28 <Avatar> they pointed out that the whole section of books is set at a higher price as a standard
01:43:55 <Avatar> which turned out to be true, and there was no hesitation in them talking about that to suggest that they had to go look it up to find a reason to say that
01:44:00 <Steven> also i played my crazy gnome barbarian again tonight... it survived.
01:44:00 <Steven> again
01:44:03 <Steven> despite my best efforts of doing terrible things in combat.
01:48:20 <Steven> who knows man... I bought a physical copy.
01:48:43 <Steven> and it sits down at the store where GMs can use it.
01:55:24 Gamera has quit (Quit: )
01:56:52 <Avatar> mate that doesn't help us online
01:57:05 <Avatar> it actually hampers us
01:57:51 <Steven> doesnt hamper me really.
01:58:01 <Steven> i can always go fetch the book.
02:07:06 <Avatar> not you obviously
02:07:31 <Steven> buy the book and it will stop hampering you.
02:13:42 <Steven> alright avatar...
02:13:47 <Steven> here we go.
02:14:05 <Steven> you answer this question correctly and i will buy the book for you.
02:15:35 <Steven> you will have 21.283 seconds to answer once you are ready.
02:15:42 <Avatar> ok go
02:15:45 <Steven> What is Cayden's Favorite number?
02:15:57 SpanishGuy12 ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
02:16:04 SpanishGuy12 ([email protected]) has left #d&d
02:16:19 <Steven> .........
02:16:21 <Steven> come on
02:16:26 <Avatar> he doesn't have one
02:16:28 <Steven> and.... times up
02:16:35 <Steven> 3.... the answer is 3
02:16:38 <Avatar> why 3
02:16:53 <Steven> a drink for you, a drink for me, and a drink to our dead homies.
02:17:09 <Avatar> SOURCE?
02:17:12 <Avatar> I think you made that up
02:17:13 <Steven> plus it is a fairly common number to pick
02:17:25 <Steven> so i figured you had a good shot at guessing it.
02:17:29 <Steven> people love 3s
02:17:35 <Avatar> I had no shot at guessing it, you made it up!
02:17:41 <Avatar> it was a trick question, I knew that much
02:18:01 <Steven> yeah... which means you guess, you pick 3, and then BAM you get a free book.
02:18:10 <Avatar> you can't make up canon though
02:18:13 <Avatar> it was an unfair question
02:19:11 <Steven> never said it was going to be a fair question...
02:21:58 <Avatar> a drink to our dead homies
02:22:00 <Avatar> jesus
02:22:33 <Steven> i know right?
02:22:46 <Steven> it could also be argued thats how long it took him to complete the test of the starstone
02:22:58 <Steven> 3 days.
02:27:34 <Avatar> it didn't take 3 anything!
02:28:16 <Steven> actually it did. Took him 3 days to complete.
02:29:05 <Steven> its in the campaign setting
02:39:37 <s_gmusic> lol poor avatar
02:41:05 <Steven> alright....
02:41:22 <Steven> one last shot and then you'll have to buy the book yourself or get somebody else to buy it for you.
02:41:29 <Avatar> here we go
02:42:55 <Avatar> ok you're right it was 3 days for the test
02:43:00 <Avatar> I will give you that
02:44:00 <Steven> Who was the last person known(mentioned in print) to attempt the test of the Star Stone?
02:44:40 <Avatar> iomedae
02:45:07 <Steven> No. She was the last to succeed.
02:45:26 <Avatar> that is basically the same thing !
02:45:39 <Steven> the last person to attempt it that was mentioned in print was Sir Reinhart.
02:45:49 <Avatar> who
02:46:07 <Steven> a Mendevian Knight with aspirations of godhood.
02:47:01 <Avatar> where is he mentioned in print
02:47:19 <Steven> Mentioned in Scenario 6-10 The Wounded Wisp
02:48:00 <Avatar> you knew I hadn't played that !
02:48:16 <Avatar> mate instead of setting me up to fail you could just say lolz buy it urself
02:48:17 <Steven> actually i didnt know you hadnt played that yet.
02:48:24 <Avatar> save me the humiliation and degradation !
02:48:29 <Avatar> oh you knew alright
02:48:41 <Steven> but its like a super obscure trivia.
02:48:51 <Avatar> in a newly released scenario
02:49:27 <Steven> yeah... again never said it was going to be fair.
02:50:42 <Avatar> mate
02:56:48 <Mekkis> BS. I attempted it yesterday!
03:00:41 <Mekkis> AND I wrote about it
03:00:54 <Steven> did paizo print it?
03:00:57 <Mekkis> yep
03:01:03 <Steven> i require proof.
03:01:27 <Steven> also... he still didnt guess you.
03:01:36 <Mekkis> just give me a few minutes to jimmy it up
03:01:40 <Steven> kk
03:03:44 <Steven> hmmm... something is wrong with this thing...
03:06:35 <Avatar> mekkis may as well have taken it yesterday
03:06:42 <Avatar> it is about as made-up as all the other questions !
03:07:11 <Steven> hmmmmm... must not of worked.
03:12:52 <Steven> hey avatar... can you check your email for me?
03:20:27 <Steven> ...
03:20:29 <Steven> poke
03:21:08 <s_gmusic> I think avatar's sulking over your quiz, steven.
03:21:52 <Steven> well that makes it difficult to find out if he actually got the book or not doesnt it?
03:23:23 <s_gmusic> a wee bit, yeah
03:25:09 <Steven> the big decision is whether i want to go bard, skald, or sorc
03:27:24 <Steven> im just going to assume the weird email i got means something went wrong
03:27:34 <Steven> and send an email to customer service.
04:13:12 <Avatar> I wasn't here yo
04:13:21 <Avatar> I haven't received any email
04:15:41 <Avatar> skald
04:33:14 <Mekkis> bard
04:45:54 <Brunius> sorc
04:58:48 <Syrass> hi
05:02:02 <s_gmusic> hi syra
05:10:52 <Brunius> what up
05:15:02 <Avatar> Syrass
05:15:04 <Avatar> roll up a character !!
05:16:32 <Syrass> :)
05:16:48 <Syrass> actually - I was sorta looking for a group for tuesday evening Aus time :)
05:19:04 <Mekkis> Avatar, do you know anything about an agreement in Australia regarding what scenarios are run at cons?
05:19:18 <Avatar> why tuesday
05:19:37 <Syrass> Because that is convenient for me :)
05:19:42 <Syrass> just reading your website atm
05:19:54 <Avatar> that is a very middleoftheweek kind of day though
05:20:00 <Syrass> so you basically do "flash" games?
05:20:01 <Avatar> chosen seemingly at random
05:20:10 <Avatar> what is a "flash" game
05:20:14 <Avatar> is that when you buy a camera
05:20:15 <Syrass> yeah - it jsut ends up being the most suitable for me :)
05:20:28 <Syrass> no - it is one where you wear a trench coat (jk)
05:20:34 <Syrass> no - just pops up and goes :)
05:21:33 <Syrass> so do most people here play via a voice chat?
05:23:41 <Avatar> yeah
05:23:52 <Avatar> how about a weekend
05:24:24 <Syrass> can probably do a weekend or 2
05:24:43 <Syrass> so is a campaign running, or one shots, a bit of everything?
05:25:19 <Avatar> pathfinder society!
05:25:25 <Avatar> you said you read the website
05:25:59 <Syrass> I am reading it :)
05:32:39 <Syrass> okay - so the group generally tests Pazio thing?
05:48:44 <Avatar> ah
05:48:51 <Avatar> I don't think so
05:49:05 <Avatar> stephen pushes for the latest ones to be held at cons
05:49:08 <Avatar> it's not as random as it used to be
05:49:25 <Avatar> and since waking rune, he pushes for everything to be slot zeroed first
05:49:38 <Avatar> why
05:50:00 <Mekkis> Because there's nothing recent being run at arcanacon
05:50:49 <Mekkis> And Steven was mentioning stuff like some agreement regarding holding off between cons.
05:51:13 <Avatar> er? plenty of season 6s are being run at arcanacon
05:51:22 <Mekkis> I hope that everyone didn't think it was a good idea
05:51:54 <Mekkis> What? Other that 6-11, you're running nothing that wasn't out November last year
05:52:07 <Avatar> 608 on friday
05:52:10 <Avatar> 605 sat morning
05:52:20 <Avatar> emerald spire saturday
05:52:28 <Avatar> 611 sat night
05:52:38 <Avatar> 607 606 603 sunday
05:53:08 <Avatar> only 603 was out at unicon last year
05:53:41 <Avatar> there should be more scenarios coming once we see players sign up
05:55:12 <Avatar> 610 and 611 only just came out
05:57:39 <Avatar> what? no
05:57:55 <Avatar> ask brunius he will explain
05:58:06 <Mekkis> 608 is only scheduled once.
05:58:52 <Avatar> everything is only scheduled once
05:58:56 <Mekkis> ah
05:58:59 <Syrass> okay :)
05:59:22 <Avatar> can't you sign up on friday
06:00:39 <Avatar> there was a lot of people drooling for fate of the fiend, I'm not sure if we ended up slot zeroing that
06:01:27 <Steven> yo
06:01:36 <Avatar> sealed gate might also be on reserve
06:03:57 <Mekkis> Heh. I played that last December
06:04:32 <Avatar> how was it
06:05:03 <Mekkis> pretty good. The GM was a little underprepared, but it went well
06:05:29 <Avatar> would you rather play early or with a prepared GM
06:05:42 <Mekkis> the latter, obviously
06:05:49 <Avatar> obviously
06:06:04 <Avatar> I am always amazed at seeing people schedule games when the scenario isn't out yet
06:06:13 <Mekkis> I'm surprised Goodall isn't running his module.
06:06:31 <Avatar> he wanted to run segang expedition
06:06:46 <Avatar> I think he's unavailable
06:07:01 <Avatar> taking some time out between running eyes part 2
06:07:11 <Avatar> andrei has been in WA for the past 2 odd months
06:07:18 <s_gmusic> Syrass, how familiar are you with D&D/Pathfinder?
06:07:18 <Avatar> I think we got lucky to finish the second half of part 1
06:10:34 <Mekkis> hmmm
06:17:41 <Syrass> I would like to think fairly familiar
06:17:54 <Syrass> not so much with Pathfinder Nuances - has been some time
06:18:34 <s_gmusic> gotcha
06:18:58 <s_gmusic> first, check out http://www.paizo.com/pathfindersociety for the PFS main page
06:19:25 <s_gmusic> then there's http://www.paizo.com/pathfindersociety/about/additionalresources for the restricted list.
06:19:35 <s_gmusic> now... WALL O' TEXT!
06:19:38 <s_gmusic> Pathfinder Society is an organized play system set up by Paizo. It allows everyone to play under the same rules anywhere PFS (Pathfinder Society) is played. There are two big things to PFS: First, there's a banned/restricted list. It says what books and (mostly) what portions of books you can use or not use (many races in the Advanced Race Guide are not allowed, for example, without a special
06:19:38 <s_gmusic> boon, which I'll explain shortly). By following the ban list, a PFS character you make for play here can be used at a real game store in Sydney or Melbourne or elsewhere. Second, Paizo releases short adventures (most average about 4 to 5 hours) for organized play. These track what you've done and determine what gold, xp, items, and boons you get, all determined by what difficulty you've played
06:19:38 <s_gmusic> the scenario at. Scenarios are divided up into seasons (years) that begin/end with GenCon. There's a large, overall storyline connecting everything, as well as smaller storylines for each season. There are also special modules that are longer and more difficult, so they give more xp and gold.
06:21:06 <Avatar> Syrass: http://pathfindersocietyonline.com/gettingstarted/aboutpfs/
06:21:15 <Avatar> start there and follow the links
06:27:24 <Syrass> kewl :)
07:02:54 <Syrass> okay - thanks for the info :)
07:03:04 <Syrass> might have a look more, and may see you guys again :)
