COMMUNISM

This also eliminates the problem of hoarders who just sit on cards forever because "they might need it later".

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Yeah, mine is kinda useless to me.

Q: Can I use Feyleaf Boots's ability for being thrown?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Don't see why not, being thrown is 50% falling.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Finished adding Glenn to Obsidian Portal, there's a few holes where i don't remember the math and don't feel like digging out the portable hard drive with all the rulebooks on it. Practically wrote a novel on his background.

That said, looking to the future, as i think the current adventure is just about over, i've looked over some stuff and i think i could feasibly run a game sometime in the near future. Do we still have a sufficient interest level to warrant two simultaneous games, or should i hold off on doing things like setting up maps until we're sure we need them?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Why not start a new thread asking for players, so we can gauge interest? Pang's waitlist is no longer a reliable indicator - four people declined to replace Garr (Soluzar, Araes, lurker, and Maris) before Deni stepped in.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Alright, the thread is set up. Everyone here needs to post, i'm not making any assumptions as to who's following D&D.

EDIT: all current Characters are put together, at least mostly, on obsidian portal. I didn't do Cal's inventory, because that would take all night.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Nah, I plan to permanently retire Cal from all games. Don't worry about converting him.

After almost a year of playing, I have come to the conclusion that archer rangers are boring, no matter how depraved or eclectic a personality he has.

My next characters should have more of a melee touch.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

4 Dice Rolls rrrrrarrrrgh

Well, he still needs to be on there for posterity 'n shit.

Not that Hawk should do it since he's put more work in on OP than I have, damn

"PLAYING BUM DARTS MAYBE"

You see, friends? This is why we need a campaign wiki. This is why.

GFF | Bum Darts | Obsidian Portal

BUM DARTS = CANON

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Ahem. So, that concludes Adventure IX. Adventure X will begin in (give or take) a week, giving those of us working on the campaign site time to update it with the incoming characters. It's been a long time since three people entered the game all at once, and I'm just too damned lazy to copy all that shit over in any kind of a hurry.

When the tenth adventure begins it will include an in-setting explanation of the guild mechanic. I'm probably not going to include voting on adventures for a while since it makes me feel like I need to provide some illusion of endless options and in so doing I stuck up a bunch of adventures that were, well, kind of crap.

IN THE MEANTIME I'll be starting up a quick, very rules-light game called Everyone is John. Hopefully the VERY SIMPLE RULES will encourage some folks outside the usual Basement dwellers to participate, I guess we'll see.

I sure do love talking to myself

Guys I don't want to undermine your sovereignty or anything but is there any reason we need three separate chat threads?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Hi Pang. Just so you don't talk to yourself some more, I didn't get the reference with the angel and the beads and the gutter

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I, um... that is... THE GODS! don't think it's... acceptable to pass, er, used beads on to your friends, er, especially when you found them in a used state yourself, or, rather, dug them out of the very body cavity in which they were, so to speak, embedded.

'cuz that's gross.

Those frozen dwarves you found had some weird hobbies is what I guess I'm trying to say here

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I was using the reason that you might not want rules questions and discussion about two separate games in the same thread, but i suppose that's not really too much of an issue. I'll see about moving it over if you'd rather have some activity in here.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

So, Pang, to clarify, are we starting the next adventure under guild style rules or are we keeping the same adventurers?

Hot damn. All that passive perception and Cal never noticed the true purpose of those anal beads? Oh my.

Well, I figure there are questions specific to each particular game. Sure, we could lump it together, but segregation might be beneficial. Hawk's game, for example, will necessarily have to deal with game mechanics already covered in the Magic Missile thread. There is strictly no need for a separate Arena discussion thread, but I am using it to monitor sign-ups (as if) so

Yeah, guild kicks in at the very beginning of the next adventure (or, continuity-wise, just before. Might do a flashback. Might do an interlude. We'll see). So Zeph and Hawkeye rotate out, having had 2 consecutives, and the randomly-selected Shin, Animechanic and CetteHamsterLa rotate in to fill the party.

So the new party will be:

wvlf (Gra-fa-zut)
Deni (Samwise)
Shin (Beefi Kertanz, Minotaur Barbarian)
Cette (Uxig "Slim" Uxigson, Kobold Barbarian/Runepriest)
Chanic (Garold Fangus, Shifter Seeker)

FELIPE NO

O Jesus. That party balance.

This will be epic.

Also, Shin being back in is awesome. Horde reuniting.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Well, fights should go quickly with this party... one way or the other.

Edit: Adding character file as an attachment since it will probably make Pang's life easier. Also I forgot to add a background benefit previously.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

So I guess this is the party of yelling "SPOOOOOOOON" and charging blindly forward.

Defense and strategy is for pussies anyway.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Hammer to the face is totally a valid strategic response to all problems.

On a totally unrelated note Pang what are your feelings on the fastball special in place of a charge?

How ya doing, buddy?

Pang, special request from a cheapskate.

Is it possible for you to download Compendium data with MasterPlan 9.5 and share the .library files here?

The charging rules do not in any way specify that the individual making the charge must be touching the ground. =D

AFAIK Masterplan hasn't been able to download the Compendium ever since the developer received a C&D about precisely that back in April/May. It's possible he's tried some sneaky end-run around the Hasbro lawyers but I doubt it.

I don't know what the fuck we're going to do around here when the Char Builder goes web-based. I don't mind sharing to some degree but 1 account for 3 campaigns and some 20 players is... well.

How ya doing, buddy?

Character Builder is going web-only? Say it ain't so

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

There hasn't been an explicit announcement as such, but a lot of things different devs have said kind of add up in that direction. It's the smart move from the WotC perspective; I expect they have more to gain from selling a product to Mac/Linux gamers and sealing up their biggest piracy hole than they have to lose from pissing off a few Luddites (and several thousand pirates).

As a customer I'm 100% on board with the move, but as a DM for people who aren't customers, well. Still, if it's web-based the "5 install limit" no longer makes sense and I can just share an account with the group I guess...
