01:29:13 <steven> hey hey
01:34:43 <Ulzef> hello people
01:47:40 <Avatar> ulzef
01:47:48 <Avatar> + steven
01:47:55 <steven> what up playa!
01:48:00 <Avatar> playin'
01:52:59 <steven> I took a power nap... its powered me into feeling like shit.
02:04:19 <steven> and here i thought we were going to talk.
02:04:29 <steven> i guess ill just go play some path of exile.
02:07:19 <steven> i might get to play Council of Thieves tomorrow.
02:07:25 <steven> would be pretty fuckin sweet
02:08:32 <steven> start playin my Ranger/Monk....
02:10:03 <steven> my goal with the character is basically to be able to use anything as a weapon
02:11:25 <steven> so 2nd level goin monk pick up improved unarmed strike, and Catch Offguard.
02:14:08 <steven> so avatar that game you playing. Looks a lot like a metroid type game.
02:22:33 <Brunius> Mekkis: Any idea how long PF on the 27th is gonna be?
02:47:36 <Mekkis> It will finish not after 1330, Brunius. Do you require it to finish earlier?
02:47:54 <Brunius> nope
02:51:53 <Mekkis> Bloody hell. Another blackout
02:56:07 <Brunius> You should protest outside parliament
02:56:13 <Brunius> That's how things get done in canberra right
03:06:55 <steven> i really dislike my dads neighbors.
03:07:11 <steven> midnight and they are out dicking around with their shitty cars making a bunch of noise
03:09:33 <Mekkis> Brunius, yeah... except...
03:09:50 <Mekkis> In Canberra you can't go anywhere without a car.
03:09:59 <Mekkis> And my car's in a secure garage.
03:10:09 <Mekkis> And the garage's doors require power to open
03:11:50 <steven> shitty titties
03:20:28 <Steven1> what up playas
03:23:36 <Steven1> yo
03:23:50 <Steven1> gmed Merchants wake this evening with a migraine.
03:24:27 <Steven1> everyone seemed very pleased with the presentation still...
03:24:34 <Steven1> im so fuckin tired lol
03:24:42 <Steven1> night guys.
03:37:01 <Mekkis> 5 hours is generally the time to aim for, right?
03:38:15 <Avatar`> daniel flood
03:38:50 <Avatar`> did something happen or did he just quit
03:39:31 <Avatar> I thought so
03:39:36 <Avatar> apparently that's too long
03:42:55 <Steven> !
03:56:51 <Avatar> what up
03:56:57 <Steven> relaxin
03:57:10 <Avatar> maybe you should change your nick to Relaxer
03:57:16 <Steven> replayed tower of the ironwood watch tonight
03:57:20 <Avatar> or maybe just Relax would work
03:57:23 <Avatar> sup relax
03:57:58 <Avatar> sup relaxer
04:00:41 <relaxer> played it with my future pain taster... got all the medical notes
04:14:54 <relaxer> so now im all ready to get that first level of pain taster
04:17:22 <Steven1> needed to get some food. Now that ive eaten, i feel a little better
04:23:35 <Mekkis> what scenario?
04:25:23 <steven> hmmmm
04:25:35 <steven> Thinkin of branching my character out.
04:25:43 <steven> Ranger/Monk/Bard/DD
04:26:06 <steven> Ranger2/Monk2/Bard1/DD
04:26:19 <Brunius> Mekkis: Any recommendations for a domain registrar?
04:39:45 <Avatar> not sure what you're talking about
04:39:49 <Mekkis> Avatar, Ben Jordan.
04:40:12 <Mekkis> And maybe he 'just quit'. Maybe 'something happened'. Most likely both.
04:48:35 <steven> so i can waste some time on that.
04:50:27 <Steven1> some scenarios have been significantly longer then others.
04:50:38 <Avatar> do you actually know
04:50:41 <Steven1> Yesterday i had a merchants wake go 5 hours.
04:50:44 <Avatar> where did I get daniel flood's name from
04:51:01 <steven> and while i wait for that im reading the new playtest document
04:51:55 <Mekkis> new playtest document?
04:52:17 <steven> im going to go with memory!
04:52:54 <steven> http://paizo.com/pathfinderRPG/ultimateIntrigue
04:53:38 <Mekkis> is it PFS legal?
04:55:57 <steven> yes
05:00:40 <relaxer> Tower of the Ironwood Watch
05:01:42 <steven> avatar... whatcha think. Ranger2/monk2/bard1/DD or ranger1/monk2/bard2/DD
05:02:11 <Avatar> haven't played it
05:02:23 <steven> suppose i could cut out ranger all together
05:02:23 <relaxer> its nonplot point.
05:02:45 <relaxer> there are some medical notes
05:04:50 <relaxer> still trying to get someone at the shop to change over to the dark archive so i can mark off that faction goal.
05:04:56 <steven> well thats good... looks like there will NOT be an Extra vigilante talent feat.
05:05:22 <steven> because damn some of these are broken as shit
05:09:38 <steven> !throw 3d6
05:09:38 <diebot> steven, 3d6: [3d6=6,5,3] 14
05:19:30 <Mekkis> bloody hell.
05:22:09 <Lintor> hey people whats up?
05:23:09 <Avatar> it doesn't matter what scenario
05:23:13 <Avatar> 5 hours is too long
05:23:29 <Avatar> as in that's how long they can tolerate playing
05:23:51 <Avatar> that particular scenario was tapestry's toil
05:41:51 <Avatar> steven: it's brilliant
05:42:03 <Avatar> it rips off a lot of metroid
05:47:35 <steven> Yeah I think im going to go bard1/Ranger5
05:47:57 <steven> and just never use any performances
05:49:21 <Ulzef> mek you know when paizocon aus details will be up on warhorn
05:57:06 <steven> nice mang nice
05:57:15 <steven> I've been playing a decent amount of path of exile
05:57:34 <Steven1> hey
06:00:15 <relaxer> well i have 5 games to GM for the faction goal.
06:06:41 <relaxer> i got told my character was broken (my guy always acts in the surprise round with a +3 initiative modifier)by the weird monk character who threw darts for 1d3+9 damage
06:07:14 <relaxer> clearly im OP
06:07:57 <relaxer> with my one attack per round for 1d4+3+2d6(vicious weapon) vs his 4 attacks per round
06:08:59 <relaxer> all i ever did in my surprise round was cast shield on myself to bring me up to a 20 ac
06:10:38 <relaxer> my character is pretty bad really
06:11:00 <Mekkis> does using the free faction change you get at the start of season 6 count as changing faction?
06:12:44 <relaxer> nope, they have to change faction by spending 1 pretige/character level.
06:13:41 <steven> dads neighbors are arguing loudly in the street
06:14:19 relaxer has quit (EOF from client)
06:14:23 <steven> about the guy working on his car and making a bunch of noise... because you know... yelling is much quieter
06:14:49 relaxer ([email protected]) has joined #d&d
06:14:49 relaxer is now known as steven
06:16:41 <Mekkis> is it really necessary>
06:17:01 steven is now known as Steven1
06:17:21 <steven> alright... had enough. If you guys never hear from me again. Its because i was shot by a meth addict.
06:18:13 <steven> aprantly yes
06:19:54 <steven> sweet.
06:21:14 <steven> just walked outside, "Can you guys keep it down it 320am and I'm tired." They appologized walked back in their house and are quiet.
06:23:42 <Mekkis> the class? or the fact that Paizo needs to churn out more sourcebooks?
06:24:59 <Mekkis> What do you call a mask that covers from the nose downwards?
06:31:00 <Avatar> ranger is a dumb class that I have never seen played effectively
06:31:10 <Avatar> people only use it to multiclass to boost numbers and that's it
06:35:21 <Mekkis> Ulzef, no, I don't...
06:35:23 <Mekkis> Are they?
06:43:38 <steven> iunno
06:51:42 <Steven1> havent played tapestry's toil yet.

07:00:18 <steven> have a good night guys, im going to go catch an hour or two worth of sleep
07:04:24 <Mekkis> that's almost as bad as a credit card referral scheme
07:08:22 <steven> and the second is.... a mask
07:09:45 <Ulzef> you mean they won't? how would you book sessions then?
07:10:03 <Ulzef> i wanna check games and gm's to decide if it is worth the trip
07:15:57 <Avatar> stick with relaxer
07:36:57 <Mekkis> sure, any more specific terms?
07:37:52 <Avatar> hopefully it doesn't go for more than 5 hours otherwise you will have upset players !!
07:38:07 <Avatar> alright, I'm done :P
07:40:21 <Mekkis> wow
07:40:23 <Mekkis> Avatar,
07:40:33 <Mekkis> Something Steven1 hasn't played!
07:40:47 <Avatar> ha
07:42:17 <Mekkis> steven, want some magic trivia?
07:43:47 <steven> im sure there is a specific term, but i cant think of it at the moment
07:43:57 <steven> and no... i dont want to deal with any more magic shit today.
07:44:05 <Mekkis> As in the game
07:44:36 <Avatar> why can't paizo just stop selling things :(
07:46:10 <steven> because they are a business
07:51:40 <Mekkis> Why can't Paizo start selling more of the right things :P
07:52:12 <Avatar> what are the right things
07:52:18 <Avatar> errata?
07:52:27 <Mekkis> Scenarios
07:52:49 <Avatar> well you got me there
07:53:02 <Avatar> I guess the writers are busier than the designers
07:55:07 <Mekkis> I mean, Paizo used to pretty much exclusively release APs
07:55:39 <Mekkis> What actually is the definition of a "low-magic" game?
07:57:13 <steven> basically magic items are fairly rare
07:57:29 <steven> you'd get a +1 weapon at 7th level or so
07:58:34 <steven> get injured in a fight spend a week or two getting healed up in town
07:58:57 <steven> rather then burning a wand of CLW
08:06:04 <Mekkis> mmm
08:07:01 <Mekkis> So in this 'low magic' 3.5e game, it seems that some of the PCs are very much into killing things in order to get XP
08:10:00 <Mekkis> Is it normal for a group of level 5-6 characters to think that taking on a group of CR12 creatures is a good idea?
08:10:41 <steven> who knows.
08:10:46 <steven> depends on their point buy.
08:11:07 <steven> like if they got to roll for stats and got a bunch of 18s they might be able to do that.
08:12:09 <Mekkis> 28 point buy (roughly equivalent to Pathfinder's 20)
08:14:00 <steven> then there is the whole thing of is it a group of cr 12 creatures or a bunch o creatures that add up to being CR12
08:14:13 <Mekkis> there were four CR12 creatures.
08:14:27 <steven> yeah fuck that shit...
08:14:27 <Mekkis> We took out two of them, and the other two ran off to get reinforcements
08:14:40 <Steven1> every month theres 2 scenarios i havent played yet
08:15:47 <steven> like i wouldnt want to play with that encounter when i was level 4
08:16:43 <steven> probably wouldnt want to get invovled till i was level 8 at the earliest
08:16:54 <Mekkis> oh, and it reminds me on one of the issues with 3.5e: XP tables.
08:17:37 <Mekkis> how the amount of XP you get is based on how your level compares to the CR of the enemy
08:18:30 <Mekkis> For a fifth-level character, defeating a CR12 monster, you get 18000XP / size of party.
08:18:49 <Mekkis> For a sixth-level character, defeating the same monster, you get 14400XP / size of party.
08:18:57 <Mekkis> Makes the DM's job harder
08:26:34 <Mekkis>
08:26:57 <Mekkis> One thing that I do know is that I probably should be absolutely sure of having the ability to run.
08:35:53 <Mekkis> Brunius, I'm currently using moniker
08:39:17 <Mekkis> Ulzef, I won't know when it's on warhorn before you do.
08:39:26 <Mekkis> Unless I can get info out of Phil

19:10:24 <Steven1> avatar... why would my characters Father kill his wife.
19:11:05 <Steven1> He is an Orchestra Conductor and she was an Opera Singer.
19:11:47 <Steven1> he is guilty and unrepentent of the crime.
19:13:05 <Avatar> she was a bad singer?
19:13:18 <Steven1> nah
19:14:50 <Steven1> i have this trait

19:23:52 <Steven1> so whatcha feeling... whats a decent motivation for uxoricide
19:24:40 <Avatar> really bad singing
19:25:11 <Steven1> oh... my father was a playwright and orchestra conductor... perhaps she refused to play a part in his opera because it sucked.
19:25:52 <Steven1> so he killed her
19:30:45 <Steven1> Step Brothers?

19:45:37 <Steven1> there we goes.
21:17:23 <steven> who mekkis?
22:07:05 <Mekkis> Steven1, how about the obvious?
22:11:23 <Mekkis> He wrote an opera, where she took the lead role. In the opera, her love interest was supposed to have something happen to him, resulting in an ending that the first audiences disliked, and there were negative reviews of the opera. In a later performance, unbeknownst to him, she conspired with the love interest to come up with a better "happy" ending. She pulls it off, the audience and reviewers are rapt and excited, but he feels jealousy for "his creati
22:11:23 <Mekkis> on" being perverted in this way, especially as he needs to continue to direct the opera - with her modifications - for the rest of the season. After one particularly good show, finds his wife in her dressing room - on top of the actor playing the love interest.
22:12:07 <Mekkis> In a fit of rage, he kills them both.
22:13:48 <Mekkis> What do you think, Steven1?
