00:00:15 <Steven> 6-07 and 6-20
00:02:24 <Goya> Nice!
00:02:38 <Goya> I didn't sign up for any of the core - though in hindsight I should have.. =/
00:02:58 <Steven> i dont know if i'll actually GM at all.
00:03:05 <Steven> i have a 5-9 and a 7-11 core.
00:03:06 <Goya> Aww.
00:03:35 <Goya> Well - aww for us. It's about time you got to play. ;)
00:04:09 <Steven> i dont know how many players actually have a 5+ character
00:04:13 <Steven> in core
00:04:19 <Steven> let alone a 7+ character
00:04:29 <Steven> unless they play more then i do... which would be impressive.
00:04:29 <Goya> I read a poll in the forums and it was very low percentage
00:04:40 <Goya> Or rather I read someone talking about a poll...
00:11:08 <Steven> I have a level 7, two level 3s and a level 2
00:11:20 <Steven> and i organize a game day twice a week.
00:11:36 <Steven1> yeah avatar run a campaign for us...
00:11:43 <Goya> holy cow!
00:13:09 <Steven1> prepin me some games for paizocon
00:18:41 <Brunius|M> Is unicon happening this year?
00:20:19 <Steven> i think our group of pathfinders plays more core then most other people.
00:22:02 Gamera ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
00:22:16 <Steven> but hey good news is that i'll also be gming the specials
00:22:46 <Steven> and one of them you play pregens, so you can totally come play at my table then.
00:24:02 * Steven1 rolls up a horrible character.
00:34:03 Gamera has quit (Quit: )
00:43:08 <Goya> Nice! We will!
00:43:24 <Goya> Sorry for the delay - I was playing Regicide
00:49:07 <Steven1> I'll build a bloodrager/arcane archer!
01:13:06 <Steven> fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck scenarios so good. they just released the last scenario i gotta prep.
01:14:14 <Steven> damn paizocon and gencon gonna be good this year
01:20:34 <Goya> Woohoo!

01:25:40 <Steven1> fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck
01:26:09 <Steven1> this scenario is sooooooooooooo good.

01:53:12 <Mekkis> seriously.

01:58:31 <Mekkis> PaizoConOz is in Canberra?

02:13:52 <Avatar> don't you live in canberra mekkis? that's good for you
02:14:02 <Avatar> re paizocon
02:14:36 <Mekkis> Ah, but the VC's a jerk. And there are far too many powergamers
02:19:25 <Steven1> avatar what ap you gonna run for us?!?
02:19:28 <Steven1> DO ET!
02:20:50 <Steven1> gaint slayer?
02:22:12 <Avatar> so aren't you going
02:26:06 <Avatar> part 3 finished, btw
02:26:12 <Avatar> hell of a cliffhanger
02:37:09 <Steven1> i might have been inclined to agree with exo but he used the word 'loosers' and capatalized the first letter in every word... which I find annoying.
02:53:11 <Steven1> so why dont you wanna run an AP for us avatar... really... tells me
03:24:12 <Avatar> should be
03:24:20 <Avatar> are you going
03:32:38 <Avatar> stepped back, not stepped down
03:35:37 <Steven1> shaved my head... ready for paizocon
03:37:49 <Avatar> how about the beard
03:39:43 <Avatar> I think I might have banned him once
03:41:44 <Avatar> steven
03:41:47 <Avatar> are you there
04:03:33 <Avatar> mate you haven't even GM'd a scenario for us in I don't remember how long
04:09:55 <Steven> i've been bus
04:09:56 <Steven> busy
04:10:14 <Steven> if i could i'd run this new scenario as a slot 0
04:10:21 <Steven> and watch your brains expload.
04:10:34 <Steven> right now.
04:10:36 <Steven> but i cant.
04:12:44 <Mekkis> hehe Avatar
04:13:01 <Mekkis> To be fair, the slaying of the dragon was a high point in the campaign
04:18:32 <ulzef> hmmm i might come mek
04:18:42 <Avatar> yeah it was pretty sweet
04:22:16 <Mekkis> especially as Mrivan was trying to play a pacifist the whole time
04:23:37 <Steven> i havent really been excited in anything they've put out up until today.
04:23:58 <Steven> because i'd rather be playing in an AP.
04:23:59 <Mekkis> He did only kill one creature that entire campaign
04:24:44 <ulzef> will talk to some of the guys and see what they think
04:27:58 <Mekkis> moin
04:28:10 <Mekkis> Steven1, question
04:28:23 <Steven1> Mekkis, answer
04:29:56 <Mekkis> If a player from interstate (say, 300+km away) has signed up to a table that you're running, and comes with a complete character sheet, but explains that he does not have his chronicle sheets, as they were lost, but he's contacted his VC and asked to get them replaced, what do you do?
04:31:18 <Avatar> I think I fleshed out the townspeople a bit too much
04:31:30 <Steven1> I would let him play. If they wanted to cheat they only really hurt themselves.
04:31:43 <Mekkis> Fair enough.
04:32:15 <Mekkis> would you force him to use a pregen?
04:32:36 <Mekkis> If you knew he was a prolific GM, would this change your attitude?
04:37:12 <Mekkis> Depends. Either you did, or you didn't flesh them out enough
04:38:33 <Steven1> no, i absolutely dont care about that stuff. I've done a whole 3 audits.
04:38:47 <Steven1> I dont carry any of my chronicle sheets around.
04:39:08 <Steven1> because its easily like 250 sheets of paper.
04:39:28 <Steven1> yup
04:39:28 <Steven1> avatar... did you suggest i cut my beard? have you been drinking?
04:39:29 <Steven1> and i never know what im going to play...
04:39:30 <Steven1> i am now
04:39:41 <Steven1> so if i dont do it, i dont expect other people to do it.
04:40:19 <Steven1> I expect people to follow the rules, and if they dont i'm not going to waste my time worry about them breaking the rules. its not worth it to me.
04:40:52 <Mekkis> If you were the VC in question, seven months on, when you finally end up printing the chronicle sheets, would you use the fact that this had happened three times in the meantime to say "You should have known better", and use it as grounds to penalise the player?
04:41:44 <Steven1> i wouldnt, mostly because i would have printed out the replacement sheets and then never thought about it again.
04:42:01 <Steven1> the only time i ever see a chronicle sheet after i print them out is when a player uses a boon off of one.
04:42:07 <Mekkis> ulzef, you sure
04:42:10 <Mekkis> Ben will be here.
04:42:47 <Mekkis> he doesn't
04:43:07 <Mekkis> Paid my deposit today!
04:43:31 <Steven1> i dont mean to unduely toot the horn of my playerbase, but they really are amazing
04:43:57 <Steven1> we've had two instances of cheating in 4 years.
04:44:33 <Steven1> which either means they arent cheating, or they are skilled at it... both of which i appreciate.
04:45:04 <Steven1> avatar
04:45:12 <Mekkis> Congratulations, Steven1: You win the "You're better than my VC" prize!
04:45:13 <Steven1> think it may be time to sleep.
04:45:24 * Steven1 shrugs
04:45:42 <Steven1> I'm really not. I just don't care... because im lazy lol
04:45:44 <Mekkis> Please, come to Canberra and take over
04:45:55 <Steven1> I will never go to australia... too many spiders.
04:46:17 <Mekkis> That's like me saying "I will never go to the US... too many guns
04:46:30 <Steven1> which is completely fair in my opinion.
04:46:51 <Mekkis> that being said, I probably will go to the US one of these days
04:47:27 <Steven1> you're more then welcome to come play in pullman washington...
04:48:11 <Mekkis> I need to find a technical conference near GenCon.
04:49:43 <Mekkis> in the US, does everyone drive like Mike Brock?
04:50:23 <Steven1> https://www.eventbrite.com/d/in--indianapolis/conferences/?crt=regular&end_date=08%2F12%2F2015&page=1&slat=39.7684&slng=-86.1581&sort=best&start_date=07%2F22%2F2015
04:50:37 <Steven1> no... we mostly fly if its more then 1 state.
04:52:09 <Mekkis> I meant the way he drives, not the distance
04:52:29 <Steven1> i think brock mostly flies.
04:52:56 <ulzef> so mekkis how many crash spaces you have for Paizocon aus
04:53:00 <Mekkis> yeah, but he's a very aggressive driver
04:53:10 <Steven1> dunno... i havent driven with him.
04:53:34 <Mekkis> I have
04:54:52 <Steven1> well he used to be a police officer. they tend to bully their way through traffic
04:55:40 <Steven1> A lot of people drive aggressively over here... i spend most of my time driving shaking my head.
04:55:51 <Steven1> because people do some really stupid things.
04:59:37 <Mekkis> https://www.govt.nz/browse/engaging-with-government/the-nz-flag-your-chance-to-decide/gallery/design/4090
05:03:59 <Mekkis> ulzef, is there any 'vl for Geelong'?
05:06:45 <Steven1> 32hrs till i leave for paizocon... time to sleep now, see ya guys later
05:28:25 <Steven1> avatar... im bout to go to sleep. If you got something you need it would probably be better to ask me now.
05:34:02 <Steven1> preppin me some 6-07...
05:50:29 <Steven1> nevermind... looks like im going to go over to my dads house and start a fire.
05:51:36 <Avatar> oh uh
05:51:44 <Avatar> how long does harrowing go for
05:51:45 <Avatar> when you play it
05:54:40 <Avatar> yay! steven's running a game online for us
05:56:04 <Steven1> lol you so cray cray
05:57:40 <Mekkis> heh
05:58:17 <Avatar> ya I was just joshin
05:58:56 <Avatar> just when my barbarian nightmares were ending :(
06:04:46 <Mekkis> ulzef, you around. I got some info out of the Brune!
06:23:44 <Steven1> we played for about 5-6 hours.
06:23:50 <Steven1> ill gm something after paizocon
06:24:01 <Steven1> then ran into some bullshit and we didnt finish
06:42:12 <Steven1> i liked the second half of that scenario a lot.
06:42:25 <Steven1> but my table did stuff that was... unexpected.
06:50:09 <ulzef> oh so way point is canberra really?
06:56:37 <Steven> pie!
07:09:09 <Steven1> we were on the home stretch though
07:20:25 <ulzef> nah
07:24:00 <ulzef> stephen does not love us enough to make one of us VL
07:30:39 <Avatar> I am not joking the first half gave me nightmares
07:39:14 <Steven1> what you never heard of john carter?
07:39:34 <Avatar> what does john carter have to do witha nything
07:39:46 <Steven1> eyes part 3 is basically john carter.
07:40:20 <Avatar> I am not sure that is true
07:40:56 <Steven1> well its where the author got their ideas from
07:42:33 <Steven1> so what up
07:47:33 <Mekkis> The Victorian police chief has gone on the record to the effect that you should report any "young people with an undue interest in chemistry or electronics" to the terrorism hotline.
07:47:37 <ulzef> hey Steven1 do you know if they have a list of games to play for the scions part 2 boon to be useful?
07:47:42 <Mekkis> I say we report Brunius
07:47:58 <Steven1> i dunno
07:48:39 <ulzef> i figured with the fact you have played like every game you would know
07:49:45 <Steven> bored.
07:53:31 <Steven1> damn... not even 3 hour
07:53:34 <Steven1> hours
08:01:50 <Avatar> I haven't heard from jena in months
08:04:43 <Mekkis> ulzef, Paizoconoz IS.
08:05:29 <Steven1> I dont really remember.
08:05:48 <Steven1> you do what ya think ya gotta do... Brunius is still butt hurt over last weeks joke methinks
08:21:44 <Avatar> scratch that
08:28:11 <ulzef> no reporting Brunius if they disappear him how would we ever get another game of WotW in?
08:30:55 <Mekkis> they don't 'disappear' terrorists. They make a lot of noise about it
08:31:19 <Mekkis> Saying "YAY, We caught a TERRORIST!"
08:31:23 <ulzef> they make alot of noise about hi profile terrorists
08:31:48 <Mekkis> you haven't read the Daily Telegraph
08:38:54 <ulzef> Avatar you about?
08:48:05 <Avatar> go back to sleep
08:57:47 <Mekkis> ulzef, if you're lucky, one.
09:01:40 <Steven1> nah
09:01:50 <Steven1> i woke up... i dont go back to sleep once i wake up.
09:16:38 <ulzef> :(
09:26:31 <Mekkis> ordered a new laptop.
09:26:47 <Mekkis> This is I think the first new laptop I've had since 2005.
09:28:18 <Mekkis> might possibly be floorspace for two, but I don't really think so
10:07:58 <Avatar> welcome to the future
12:25:14 <ulzef> Jena has apprently stepped back or so i was told at the last con
16:52:38 <Avatar> I'm about now
18:43:15 <Avatar> just read the first DM feature on LSK, it's quite telling of what's to come
18:43:22 <Avatar> something I didn't intend while writing it
18:59:02 <ulzef> around now
18:59:11 <ulzef> at home sick
19:33:55 <Mekkis> So I assume that you won't be making Paizoconoz this year?
19:47:38 <Avatar> Mekkis: what do you think of the unchained rogue
