I'm down with that. And by "that", I mean "resurrecting Skills, then mowing him down with a lightning beam, over and over".

Also, server's up.

Stop Sign survives with ONE HIT POINT

Everyone else is mowed down in pursuit of an empty chest

Save Skills, who died two hours ago because he just COULDN'T STOP SUMMONING MONSTERS

CONVENIENT SCROTUM

Yeah, he dies and then reminds Pang that he can pull the ole switcheroo to kill the rest of us.

I hope I never come up against Skills DM'ing.

Skills DM? His adventure notes would burst into flame five minutes before the game. Instead he takes everyone bowling. Fingers get stuck in ball, flings self down alley. Somehow misses every pin.

This is the only thread on the forums with the "scrotums" tag and I am legitimately surprised

sometimes

there's just too many chaos warriors behind the door

and even the potion you previously trawed that only heals you for 4 body points that you sneakily told pang "it restores up to all lost body points" while reading the card out loud like the cheating son of a bitch you are isn't even enough

that shit sounds dumb when read out loud and you can't believe no one called you on your bullshit

you were at 3 body points at the time which the potion would have only brought up to 7 body points so perhaps you would have died by the hands of the first chaos warrior behind the door instead of the second leading to an earlier demise for root

ah well

I work with medical research papers for a living, and now all I'm going to think when I see So and So MD PhD is scrotes.

Honestly a lot of those treasure cards AREN'T quite right so I figured there was a nonzero chance that the guy who built the campaign file was the asshole and not you.

"Think of me as your own scrotum" probably needs to be added to the Cheers/Ciao dialog

And Stop PROBABLY needs a nick change I'm not sayin' I'm just sayin'

IN THE SPLIT SECOND WHERE YOU DECIDE WHAT YOUR LIE TO PANG WILL BE YOU THINK...

WHAT KIND OF CARD WOULD GIVE YOU 5 BODY POINTS WHEN THE PREVIOUS ONES HAVE BEEN EVEN INTEGERS SO YOU GO WITH THE WORD "ALL" INSTEAD OF A NUMBER EVEN THOUGH THAT KINDA SOUNDS DUMB BUT HEY IT COULD HAPPEN

MAYBE

You should play Advanced Heroquest some time, the addition of Skaven makes everything better.

AdvHQ is so complicated by the standard of board games I might as well just steal the random-dungeon-generation tables and just play WFRP.

(and if Game Night ever gets back to proper RPGs it probably will be in the form of random dungeons, since this crew would only repay efforts to create a plot or memorable NPCs with wanton murder)

We can't even play the basic Hero Quest by the rules, so that should serve as an indication of what kind of party we're talking about here.

Or to be more accurate, we can play by the rules, but we keep throwing ourselves into pits for whatever reason~

It has occurred to me that Magicka multiplayer maxes out at 4 players. While it's possible (likely, really) that someone will be indisposed, maybe it would be good to have an alternate plan. I'm trying to think of something other than an FPS that'll support 5 players and coming up short. Something where we can inadvertently murder each other would be best.

We'll still do Magicka if we end up with only 4 people but I don't want anyone to get left out just because they hopped on Skype a few minutes late. (And we'll still have Magicka as a backup for the next 4-players night)

Well, if there's more than 4 players then they can at least watch the stream with the audio muted while skyping if they want to follow along. That's assuming I'm one of the players.

All right, lacking any other suggestions I guess tonight is Magicka regardless of playercount. So either show up on time or be prepared to sit around looking stupid while we have all the fun, neener neener, etc etc

OR: find 3 more players so we can have comedy wizard team racing battel

I'm in for this, I've DL'ed the game already and gave it a small whirl just so I wouldn't look like a complete idiot come game time. I can tell this is going to be rather epic. Or maybe a total and complete disaster, whichever.

Quick question though: how are we setting up the chat? is there an in-game voice chat, or are we going to Skype at the same time?

Pretty sure we'll still be Skyping it up, Magicka has no internal voice support.

Welp, it looks like I'm going to be too busy again tonight. Sorry folks :(

I died again. :mad:

If you want a picture of the future, imagine a lightning bolt smashing into your face the instant you respawn. Forever.

v Oh christ yes.

"What's my ability? Smoke Bomb? Let's see what... um."

I still don't understand how we made it out of that first dungeon, between the mutual slaughter and Pang's many bombs of game-breaking smoke.

So you guys just want to keep hammering at this thing until we beat it, or just hold onto it for Stopless nights? I don't think it's actually possible to get "out of practice" here.

When (if?) we finish Magicka, I figure VG night might be fun with Titan Quest. With the XMAX mod preferably for 400 mobs on screen six bosses at once funtime action. Damn thing goes on sale for $5 every month or two, so.
