[14:14:50] nothing at all [14:14:54] and everything [14:15:57] I'm hungry. :( [14:16:05] * Yon is now known as Paera [14:16:38] GT's up [14:16:44] Anyway, sup Nova? [14:16:53] I've neen playing Tron 2.0 [14:17:27] Nova: We're hiring a guy to move into your basement on weekends and just watch episodes of Deal Or No Deal with the volume cranked constantly all the time starting this friday [14:17:41] I've never watched that show [14:18:02] It's the sort gameshow ever. [14:18:18] Charles: I'm pretty sure that earns you a seat besides Hitler in hell. [14:18:39] Anybody who knows anything about probability could win every time. So they get people who're utter dumbshit and try to win money through fairy magic instead of figuring shit out [14:19:02] Fucking noisy-ass constantly-yowling cat. [14:19:08] Hah [14:19:25] I think it got so bad, that they actually increased the number of million-dollar suitcases [14:19:35] Because NO ONE was winning [14:19:41] I've given it food, put it out and let it back in, cleaned its litterbox and given it fresh water and it's just wandering around yowling. [14:19:54] Maybe it wants lurv [14:20:02] No, it hates me. [14:20:05] hah [14:20:37] It *used to* like me, and then it decided that it'd be better to either ignore me or try to bite me depending on how close I was to it. [14:20:56] And now that I have to take care of it while I'm housesitting, it's a giant pain in the ass. [14:21:49] * Mechazawa is now known as Xan [14:22:18] Every morning and night, I have to put thyriod medicine in its ears, and it won't stay still. I have to pin the goddamn cat to the ground because it's too spiteful to get the medicine it needs to live. I miss having a cat that isn't a giant bitch all the time [14:22:44] 1d20 [14:22:44] Eilenia rolls 1D20: 3 [14:23:46] Could you roll for init, Yon?

[14:24:06] That's the one I didn't note down from last time. :downs: [14:25:53] Now I just need to remember what I saved the map from last time as [14:25:57] Oh, awesome. Braid is finally out on XBLA [14:26:03] Braid?

No word on a buyer though [14:28:51] Failed to connect [14:29:05] Rusty connected okay [14:29:11] What do you have for the IP? [14:29:30] yeah, I'm in. the topic ip for dem [14:30:21] Odd. It still had Nova's IP in there [14:30:25] Next on Bernard's list - constant threats of lawsuits and gaining the abilty to appear wherever his name has been typed three times [14:30:52] hahaha [14:30:54] Hahah [14:30:58] Alright, here we go. [14:33:13] Whoop.GTA4 on PC. http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3169197 [14:33:14] that pog a question mark on purpose? [14:34:46] Moving across the sewerway as indicated, then quarrying the ooze, then two-fanged strike [14:35:03] 1d20+6 [14:35:04] Xan rolls 1D20+6: 18 +6 = 24 [14:35:04] 1d20+6 [14:35:04] Xan rolls 1D20+6: 14 +6 = 20 [14:35:10] both vs ac [14:35:31] Which pog? [14:35:39] The enemy [14:35:41] the ooze [14:35:49] It's a giant quesiton mark to me [14:36:04] I must not have shared my new pogs out [14:36:08] ahh [14:36:37] And two hits [14:36:47] 1d10+3 [14:36:47] Xan rolls 1D10+3: 2 +3 = 5 [14:36:48] 1d10+3 [14:36:48] Xan rolls 1D10+3: 10 +3 = 13 [14:36:51] and 3 more [14:37:12] Did you rename the file since putting it out there? [14:37:41] Nope, I'm pretty sure it's Ochre Jelly.whatever [14:38:03] Is there anything I can do to share my new pogs? And did you guys see it last time? [14:38:28] I did not [14:38:34] Should be a .png [14:39:11] I moved my own copy of the jelly over, try a rescan [14:39:23] I see it [14:39:42] That's definately a different pog. [14:39:58] well, itll suffice, I hope [14:40:23] Yeah, this just bothers me since it means I'll probably have to redo all the others I made unless I can figure out waht the issue is [14:40:31] wrong filetype maybe [14:40:40] It's saved as a .png [14:40:42] can I roll to ID it? [14:40:43] Shit, phone. [14:40:49] Can you try redragging your pog onto the table? [14:41:13] Done so. Does it work now? [14:41:20] Nope. :/ [14:42:03] Cha: Maybe you need to rename it with no spaces [14:42:09] Yeah [14:42:11] Try an underscore [14:43:22] Aah, good idea. [14:46:30] Alright, renamed all the pogs [14:47:01] Does it work now? [14:47:05] Deifnitely [14:48:30] Wacky. [14:48:46] There are definately non-underscored pogs I've got from other people in the past [14:49:32] Back, sorry. Was hammering out some final Otakon plans. [14:50:14] No problem [14:50:25] We still on my turn? [14:51:25] Yeah [14:52:15] (that was weird, suddenly getting a phone call of the MOTHER of the goon that I'm rooming with) [14:54:09] Lance of faith. [14:54:27] 1d20+5 [14:54:27] Paera rolls 1D20+5: 16 +5 = 21 [14:54:40] Hits [14:55:18] I'm gonna hit it with Icy terrain after [14:55:21] 1d8+5 [14:55:21] Paera rolls 1D8+5: 1 +5 = 6 [14:55:29] laser is not difficult [14:55:32] Icy Terrain [14:55:34] 1d20+5 [14:55:34] Eilenia rolls 1D20+5: 11 +5 = 16 [14:55:36] Hold on there [14:55:39] Versus Ref [14:55:47] Yeah? [14:55:49] And Eve is +2 power to her next attack [14:56:24] Cha, from earlier, [16:40] can I roll to ID it?

[15:00:22] Yep [15:00:38] I'll be hitting its lower right square [15:00:47] Since I can't really put down an underlay with the light [15:01:02] Though if I knew the jelly was going to move, I'd have tried a different move [15:01:27] Is it okay if I change? [15:02:17] I was planning on using Icy Terrain to pin it down in its alcove. [15:02:19] No problem [15:02:24] Alright, Cloud of Daggers [15:02:34] 1d20+5 [15:02:35] Eilenia rolls 1D20+5: 11 +5 = 16 [15:02:40] Versus Ref [15:02:43] Its lower right square [15:02:58] Hits [15:03:06] I'm gonna use stairs to mark it [15:03:12] 1d6+4 [15:03:12] Eilenia rolls 1D6+4: 6 +4 = 10 [15:03:23] iNice [15:04:24] hee hee hee http://img401.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mekdonalds1wk3.jpg [15:04:45] * Paera (a@wnpgmb014sw-ad02-18-244.dynamic.mts.net) Quit (Quit: Client Exited) [15:04:55] Dang, my private map's being really slow for some reason [15:05:57] Probably the drawings [15:06:29] Mind if I help clean up the scribbles a little? [15:06:34] It should help speed up GT [15:08:25] * Yon (a@wnpgmb014sw-ad02-18-244.dynamic.mts.net) has joined #Exalted [15:08:40] INTERNET [15:08:45] * Yon is now known as Paera [15:09:01] Yeah, feel free [15:09:08] It wasn't this slow before, though [15:09:28] all those new pogs? question marks [15:10:01] Eilenia rolls 1D20+5: 11 +5 = 16 [15:10:01] <@Eilenia> Versus Ref [15:10:01] <@Eilenia> Its lower right square [15:10:40] Those new pogs'll be fixed as soon as my Gametable stops huffing dicks [15:11:19] heh [15:12:28] There we go [15:14:33] 1s20 [15:14:35] 1d20 [15:14:35] Charles rolls 1D20: 3 [15:15:11] 1d20 [15:15:11] Charles rolls 1D20: 13 [15:16:46] Firing a twin strike with prime shot at the new jelly, then moving back [15:17:04] 1d20+7 [15:17:05] Xan rolls 1D20+7: 15 +7 = 22 [15:17:05] 1d20+7 [15:17:06] Xan rolls 1D20+7: 4 +7 = 11 [15:18:41] quarrying it as well [15:18:48] oh, also, forgot to add quarry damage to the first [15:18:56] 1d6 [15:18:56] Alright, apply it now [15:18:56] Xan rolls 1D6: 1 [15:19:18] One hit [15:19:54] 1d10 [15:19:54] Xan rolls 1D10: 4 [15:19:56] 1d6 [15:19:56] Xan rolls 1D6: 3 [15:20:25] Alright. And feel free to mark the damage you do on the creature you do it on [15:20:55] sure thing boss [15:21:45] did someone mark mine on jelly 2 already? [15:22:08] We're putting our own damage on enemy pogs now? Okay [15:22:33] Yeah, I put all the damage that was already done to Jelly 2 on jelly 2 [15:23:06] Actually, I'm not sure. Marking damage does it it easier for me to track bloodied effects [15:23:19] You also know the resists [15:23:23] http://www.destructoid.com/first-screens-of-puzzle-kingdoms-revealed-and-it-s-puzzle-quest-98439.phtml :toot; [15:23:32] That's true, yeah [15:23:40] I guess I'll mark it. [15:24:04] Oh, did you ever roll the Nature check, Rusty? [15:26:02] I'M FULL OF BAHAMUT [15:26:07] nope, I'll do so now [15:26:14] 1d20+9 [15:26:14] Xan rolls 1D20+9: 7 +9 = 16 [15:27:25] Alright. You can definately tell that it's an ochre jelly, with everything that entails. [15:27:49] (Namely, it splits when bloodied and shifts everywhere it moves) [15:28:08] You're up, Yon [15:28:18] Creating difficult terrain might be pretty good here, then, if it can't move without shifting [15:29:01] Well, it can. But it puts it at a disadvantage [15:29:17] It has a normal move of 4 and an at-will power that lets it shift four squares [15:29:22] Aah. [15:31:44] Lance of faith again. [15:31:49] 1d20+5 [15:31:49] Paera rolls 1D20+5: 8 +5 = 13 [15:32:04] (vs ref) [15:32:15] Just barely missed. :( [15:34:27] Jelly 2, when its turn starts, takes... [15:34:43] 2 force damage. [15:34:47] * Charles nods [15:38:14] Alright, minor action, I'm casting Light at its max range, 5 squares away. [15:38:40] Hpefully we'll get more visibility [15:38:55] First 4e jelly reproduction :toot: [15:38:57] Alright [15:39:22] Then I'll toss an Icy Terrain on Jelly 3. [15:39:45] Or... hm [15:40:01] Hey, my pog turned into a question mark [15:40:26] Ahahaha at Jelly 3 [15:40:42] Yeah, I'll do that move [15:40:51] Versus Ref [15:40:52] 1d20+5 [15:40:53] Eilenia rolls 1D20+5: 9 +5 = 14 [15:40:55] There's two Xans on my map, but I still see Eilenia [15:41:01] Hit [15:41:10] 1d6+4 [15:41:10] Eilenia rolls 1D6+4: 3 +4 = 7 [15:41:17] 7 cold damage, and I knock it prone [15:41:45] Two Xans? XAN IS A JELLY INFILTRATOR [15:41:50] He's a SNATCHER [15:43:05] lol [15:43:22] I'm actually south [15:43:40] Man, it was really hard for me not to finish the narration about the jelly's move with 'It's getting difficult to take this fight easy'. [15:44:18] Post it, Dem [15:44:24] Oh, nevermind [15:44:34] Did that jelly move on my turn? [15:44:49] No, it moved afterwards [15:44:53] aah [15:45:26] Quarrying jelly 3, prime shot twin strike, move back [15:45:30] 1d20+7 [15:45:30] Xan rolls 1D20+7: 9 +7 = 16 [15:45:31] 1d20+7 [15:45:31] Xan rolls 1D20+7: 16 +7 = 23 [15:48:19] Poor Eve we are leaving her all alone. [15:48:31] One hit [15:48:37] I guess the Jelly's really got her in a... jam? [15:48:42] Ooooh hohoho [15:48:51] I laughed. :( [15:48:58] hahaha [15:49:10] shit, forgot my quarry damage is d8 [15:49:11] dooo hoo hoo hoo hoo [15:50:19] Aw man. I keep forgetting I can take my move AFTER attacking. [15:52:21] So, what's your damage, Rusty? [15:53:56] ah, sorry, frogtot o roll [15:54:01] 1d10 1d8 [15:54:02] Xan rolls [ 1D10: 3 ] [ 1D8: 2 ] = 5 [15:57:49] Your go, Yon [15:58:11] Remind me. Prone grants combat advantage, right? [15:58:37] Yeah, against melee [15:58:43] It makes ranged attacks harder to pull off [15:58:56] Oh. Damn. What's my penalty then? [15:59:24] -2 [15:59:56] Well then I'll keep lasering the one that I've been lasering. [15:59:59] Sacred flame. [16:00:10] 1d20+5 [16:00:10] Paera rolls 1D20+5: 14 +5 = 19 [16:00:18] That hits reflex yes? [16:01:04] Yep [16:01:13] 1d6+5 [16:01:13] Paera rolls 1D6+5: 5 +5 = 10 [16:01:15] Which one is that? [16:01:19] And 3 temp HP to Eve. [16:01:24] Jelly 2 [16:02:51] Done. [16:04:33] I'm thinking of going with another Cloud of Daggers on Jelly 2 so Eve can move up and plug the bridge [16:04:35] Dang. Eve got crit by the ooze [16:05:05] Where's Jelly 3 in the initiativ? [16:05:47] Oh, thanks for reminding me [16:06:20] It doesn't say where it goes in the MM entry, so I just put it on its parent's init for ease [16:06:52] Alright, Cloud of Daggers on Jelly 2. [16:06:55] 1d20+5 [16:06:55] Eilenia rolls 1D20+5: 18 +5 = 23 [16:06:59] Versus ref [16:07:04] 1d6+4 [16:07:04] Eilenia rolls 1D6+4: 6 +4 = 10 [16:07:10] Takes 10 Force damage. [16:07:18] Is it a move action to get up from prone? [16:07:21] It is [16:08:42] Jelly 1 is inside the water? [16:09:09] Yeah [16:09:32] Alright [16:09:35] The ice fades [16:09:46] The flow is heavy enough to push medium and smaller creatures one square east each turn, but the jelly is good [16:10:08] Did Jelly 1 do a normal move, or a shift? [16:10:12] moving across the bridge, twin strike on jelly 1 [16:10:14] Normal move [16:10:16] * Charles nods [16:10:20] they shift as normal moves [16:10:21] OA from Eve? [16:10:28] Yeah, but there was an ice patch there [16:10:33] Cna't shift into difficult terrain [16:10:38] 1d20+6 1d20+6 [16:10:38] Xan rolls [ 1D20+6: 18 +6 = 24 ] [ 1D20+6: 19 +6 = 25 ] = 49 [16:10:43] Two hits [16:10:49] 2d10 1d8 [16:10:49] Xan rolls [ 2D10: 4 9 = 13 ] [ 1D8: 7 ] = 20 [16:10:56] And it's very dead, emote it [16:11:40] jelly 1 is? [16:11:46] 2 [16:12:04] Oh derp [16:12:19] eh, may as well just go with two and kill it [16:12:25] Nah, it was almost dead [16:12:50] Did Jelly 1 ever get bloodied? [16:12:53] Not yet [16:12:53] Why didn't it split? [16:13:00] Oh, whoops. Misread [16:14:00] Do we know what the area around where Paera is like? [16:14:13] -where [16:14:52] It's just a straight tunnel [16:15:58] Oh no the jelly is right in my face :gonk: [16:16:00] Paera's up now? [16:16:08] oh, whoops [16:17:03] Yeah, she is.

[16:43:23] Two hits [16:43:29] 1d8+3 [16:43:29] Paera rolls 1D8+3: 1 +3 = 4 [16:43:40] Jelly 1 takes an extra 3 on top of that. [16:43:53] What sort of attack is Divine Glow? [16:44:07] Close blast 3. [16:44:12] Nice [16:45:04] Cool [16:45:22] Describe it, then it's Eilenia's turn [16:45:58] Gonna be Thunder Waving, and hopign they don't have that great a Fort defense [16:46:07] Top, then bottom [16:46:08] 1d20+5 [16:46:08] Eilenia rolls 1D20+5: 1 +5 = 6 [16:46:10] 1d20+5 [16:46:10] Eilenia rolls 1D20+5: 4 +5 = 9 [16:46:23] Certainly better than those. :( [16:46:29] Gonna shift back [16:46:33] Then making a save [16:46:34] 1d20 [16:46:34] Eilenia rolls 1D20: 2 [16:46:37] I take 5 more damage [16:46:48] 9 HP left [16:47:07] Healing word Eilenia. Also, do I get a save? [16:47:11] Well, not shfitng.

So you take 13 and get the ongoing damage again, Yon. :/ [16:49:19] Yanno I'm so used to playing warlords I keep wanting to look at everyones hp totals to see who needas a surge [16:49:49] And of course it didn't affect them Dem, you use electricty on BLUE slimes. :V [16:50:22] It's thunder damage, not lightning damage. :V [16:50:43] I really got Eve in a bad situation [16:50:59] She should be back with you guys, handsing, but I overextended her. :/ [16:51:07] yeah [16:51:51] To be honest, I didn't realize how much the oozes would dominate movement once they began splitting [16:52:06] (But then, this is the first time she's fought them, probably, so she might not either) [16:52:12] You're up, Rusty [16:52:21] We've got no place to use as a choke point, either [16:52:30] standing still, twin strike on 4 [16:52:39] 1d20+6 1d20+6 [16:52:39] Xan rolls [ 1D20+6: 15 +6 = 21 ] [ 1D20+6: 2 +6 = 8 ] = 29 [16:52:44] One hit [16:52:45] 1d10 1d8 [16:52:45] Xan rolls [ 1D10: 4 ] [ 1D8: 3 ] = 7 [16:53:12] and noticing it isnt quarried, quarrying it too, naturally [16:53:20] You can quarry before the attack, right? [16:53:34] Yeah. We'll assume he did [16:53:51] yeah [16:53:56] Please. [16:54:06] You're up, Yon. I'll note your turn in chat after Rusty emotes his attack [16:54:06] Jelly 4 dshould take 2 damage when it activates [16:55:18] * Charles nods [16:55:45] Shit, do my heals work on ME? [16:55:56] I think they do [16:56:02] But you're out of healing words [16:56:21] Yeah, but I've got sacred flame, at least. [16:56:28] Doesn't that only grant temp HP? [16:56:37] Did you take Cure Light, or were you holding out for Cure Serious? [16:56:41] "An ally" doesn't include yourself, by the way. :/ [16:57:22] Well fuck. Blowing cure light, I guess. :/ [16:58:07] That a daily? [16:58:19] Wait. [16:58:29] Second wind. Is that daily or encounter? [16:58:32] Encounter [16:58:34] Encounter [16:58:46] And all your defenses go up by 2 until the end of your next turn [16:58:48] It's an action, right? [16:58:53] standrard action [16:59:35] Okay, popping second wind. [17:00:07] And rolling my save. [17:00:08] 1d20 [17:00:09] Paera rolls 1D20: 13 [17:00:12] :toot: [17:01:52] Hurling a Cloud of Daggers at Jelly 1 [17:01:53] 1d20+5 [17:01:54] Eilenia rolls 1D20+5: 15 +5 = 20 [17:01:58] vs ref [17:02:00] 1d6+4 [17:02:00] Eilenia rolls 1D6+4: 4 +4 = 8 [17:02:03] Nice [17:03:29] save [17:03:30] 1d20 [17:03:30] Eilenia rolls 1D20: 8 [17:03:31] fail [17:03:33] 5 more damage [17:03:45] Down to 15 [17:03:50] End of line. [17:05:49] The second wind defence bonus pretty much saved you, Yon. :toot: [17:05:58] Rusty's up [17:05:58] :woop: [17:06:12] Eve's in pretty bad shape. [17:06:17] Looks like Eve needs to lay hands on herself again. :V [17:06:51] Yeah. Good thing it's a minor [17:06:54] Yeah [17:07:25] This is a tough fight, but I think we've almost got it [17:07:32] And we haven't blown APs or Dailies. [17:08:41] Rusty? [17:09:35] I've got to be honest, this fight happened mostly because Ochre Jellies are about the only monster that lives in sewer-like areas and isn't either a rat or some terrible abberation. :V [17:11:20] sorry [17:11:25] Well, it's not kobolds. [17:11:28] That and jellies are cool. [17:11:28] This is a definite step up. [17:11:29] Yeah [17:11:35] Twin strike the closest jelly [17:11:41] 1d20+6 1d20+6 [17:11:41] Xan rolls [ 1D20+6: 10 +6 = 16 ] [ 1D20+6: 19 +6 = 25 ] = 41 [17:11:52] One hit [17:12:24] 1d10 1d8 [17:12:24] Xan rolls [ 1D10: 10 ] [ 1D8: 7 ] = 17 [17:12:58] Dead! [17:13:04] Describe it [17:13:19] Jelly 4 is down? [17:13:26] Yep [17:13:29] Yay! [17:13:44] And Eve rolled max damage on her attack, so Jelly 1 bit it, too. After descriptions, the fight's over [17:14:51] Yay! [17:15:19] Takin' it easy in the next life! [17:16:31] Anything on Eve that isn't likely to fall off. [17:16:42] Since we're near water, I don't want to risk her losing any backpack items. >:( [17:17:22] 1d20 [17:17:22] Eilenia rolls 1D20: 3 [17:17:25] Fail, I take 5 [17:17:26] 1d20 [17:17:26] Eilenia rolls 1D20: 10 [17:17:30] I make it [17:18:09] After a short rest, I burn one Surge [17:18:45] eehehe [17:18:46] http://www.threepanelsoul.com/view.php?date=2008-02-04 [17:18:54] haha [17:20:25] I should make the center of the burst/blast templates a different color. If it's transparent, it's hard to tell where the center is if I start dragging it around [17:20:46] * Charles nods [17:21:02] http://img401.imageshack.us/my.php?image=mekdonalds1wk3.jpg Oh god I just noticed the little signs [17:21:14] Hahah, that's terrific [17:21:40] Alright, short resting, are we continuing? [17:21:51] I remember we wanted to get started early so that Yon could sleep earlier [17:22:00] Yeah, I think it's up to Yon [17:22:12] * Xan (rustangel@ip-214-151.atvci.net) Quit (Ping timeout: 180 seconds) [17:22:29] I'm still good for another 2 hours or thereabouts if everyone else wants to keep playing. [17:22:36] Cool [17:22:42] * Xan (rustangel@ip-214-151.atvci.net) has joined #Exalted [17:23:00] Alright, let's keep going. [17:23:04] 'kay [17:23:17] Someday we will get through more than one 4e fight per session, and that will be a landmark day for us [17:23:48] got a bsod [17:23:53] Damn [17:24:00] Happens every now and then [17:26:01] I'm noticing a major problem with Defenders is when they overextend themselves. I'm curious about how that happens and how to prevent it. [17:26:33] Yeah [17:26:58] It's happened to Shavozama and Eve so far. [17:27:06] Okay, blowing surges to get my hp back. [17:27:54] Maybe it's just a problem with characters Nova makes. :V [17:28:34] :( [17:28:51] Granted, he's not there to manage his own defenders [17:29:24] I remember the last time with Eve i APed for a Second Wind because I forgot she was a paladin. [17:30:27] Nova forgot about being a paladin? Does not compute [17:30:52] Okay, not counting today's session, it's only happened to Shavozama [17:31:09] So it's not totally Nova's fault. [17:31:29] Though Charles said it's what happens with characters Nova makes, not characters Nova plays. [17:31:33] :iiam: [17:32:06] hahaha [17:34:42] Elena's not going to open the door, guys. She's squishy. >:( [17:34:48] I'll admit, Eve is a little low on the HP for a Defender [17:34:53] I've beenwaiting for five minutes for one of you to take the initiative. >:( [17:35:24] Paladins and doors needing to be opened go together like peanut butter and jelly [17:36:14] I've moved my pog [17:36:30] * I didn't want to do it because I don't want to dictate actions as a GMPC that put the group in situations :saddowns: [17:36:53] Stop narrating yourself. >:( [17:37:09] I honeslty don't mind Eve opening doors. [17:37:15] She's meant to lead the group [17:37:20] 1d20+8 [17:37:20] Xan rolls 1D20+8: 19 +8 = 27 [17:37:21] Into fighting [17:37:26] thats my stealth check [17:37:38] Alright [17:39:52] let me know what I see? [17:40:01] Typing it up now [17:40:21] k [17:40:22] Actually I think Paera is meant to lead. [17:40:30] Well, not up front. [17:40:33] i'm just scouting. [17:40:35] She's a laser cleric, not a lightsaber cleric [17:40:40] hehe [17:41:02] any of them look like casters? [17:41:09] Nope [17:41:13] Wow. What's Xan hiding behind? [17:41:37] He's just in the shadows. I guess he can have opened the door and be peeking in [17:41:45] * Eilenia nods [17:41:55] http://zip.4chan.org/m/src/1218059745951.jpg Oh fuck this is going to haunt my dreams [17:42:23] ahahhahahhaha hahahah oh dammit internet [17:42:33] Hahahhahahahhaha [17:48:16] Alright, you guys get a suprise round after the doors are opened [17:48:29] Okay [17:48:31] Roll for init [17:48:39] 1d20+8 [17:48:39] Xan rolls 1D20+8: 12 +8 = 20 [17:48:40] 1d20+2 [17:48:41] Paera rolls 1D20+2: 1 +2 = 3 [17:49:19] 1d20+6 [17:49:20] Eilenia rolls 1D20+6: 12 +6 = 18 [17:51:23] Jesus Christ, I rolled silly high for monster init [17:51:40] 1d20+2 [17:51:40] Charles rolls 1D20+2: 4 +2 = 6 [17:52:54] ......Hurr, I just realized a reason why the last encounter might have been so tough.

[17:54:28] Twin strike, one on each archer [17:54:52] Then shift behind the wall for cover [17:55:08] ALright [17:55:29] 1d20+7 1d20+6 North, South [17:55:29] Xan rolls North, South [ 1D20+7: 13 +7 = 20 ] [ 1D20+6: 17 +6 = 23 ] = 43 [17:55:48] Forgot to include granted combat advantage [17:56:05] Two hits [17:57:11] Quarrying sharpshooter 1 [17:57:17] 1d10 1d8 [17:57:17] Xan rolls [ 1D10: 7 ] [ 1D8: 2 ] = 9 [17:57:19] 1d10 [17:57:19] Xan rolls 1D10: 7 [17:58:06] Awesome [17:58:53] Describe it, Rusty, and take your turn, Dem [17:59:09] Whoo [17:59:30] Alright, dropping an Ice Patch [17:59:49] described:P [17:59:49] Right in the SNES pad of goblins and rats [18:00:04] hehe [18:00:08] Er, Icy Terrain [18:00:16] Cutter 1, going clockwise [18:00:30] 4x1d20+5 [18:00:30] Eilenia rolls 4x1D20+5: ( 10 +5 = 15 ) ( 6 +5 = 11 ) ( 20 +5 = 25 ) ( 6 +5 = 11 ) = 62 [18:00:55] Versus Reflex [18:01:02] yanno, to avoid the confusion, the room's fully lit, so no need for the radius [18:01:20] Aside from the guy that got critted, did any hit? [18:01:29] You took out Cutter 1 [18:01:53] Dr. Rat2 takes 10 damage. [18:02:24] Heh, I got something mean prepped.

[18:07:16] Unless nobody is moving their pogs. [18:07:28] I don't see Eve next to the rat [18:07:34] Charles, try reconnecting [18:08:28] That was me being sloppy, I think [18:09:13] there a spiral staircase in the middle of that sewer or is that an accidental drag? [18:09:23] No, that's what I used to mark Cloud of Daggeres [18:09:32] So what bonus do we get for the surprise round? [18:09:35] None [18:09:49] We just get a whole round of actions before they do [18:10:33] Oh, okay. Rusty said something about combat advantage so I was confused. [18:10:53] Hm. [18:11:03] I don't think you get CA, but I could be wrong [18:11:16] thought we did [18:11:35] * Paera is more confused now. [18:12:57] Getting the book [18:13:18] Crap. [18:13:21] RAM's choking up [18:13:23] I can't open the pdf [18:13:29] Where's my hard copy? [18:13:42] No combat advantage, only one action [18:13:46] Yon, is CA giong to affect the decision you make? [18:13:47] Aah [18:14:00] So Yon can only move and that's it? [18:14:46] It's been 10 minutes. I don't mean to sound angry, but we need to keep watch of the time [18:15:59] Okay, then I'm moving in and sacred flaming.

[18:16:36] In a surprise round, you only get one action [18:16:55] Eve moved and attacked [18:17:02] That was a charge, I thought [18:17:03] Eve charged [18:17:08] A charge is an attack action [18:17:26] Oh, I see. [18:17:45] Then I'm just positioning myself. [18:17:55] You can still attack from your original square [18:18:21] oh, wait. Range [18:18:25] Oh well.

[18:49:34] I finish the mission I was in the middle of... and get the ending. [18:49:38] You're up, Dem [18:49:41] Alright, firing off CoD [18:49:45] At the rat swarm. [18:49:52] So when I stopped, I was literally ten minutes from the end [18:49:52] It's an Area attack, even though it's just one square [18:49:55] Hahaha [18:49:58] Yep. [18:49:58] 1d20+5 [18:49:58] Eilenia rolls 1D20+5: 12 +5 = 17 [18:50:01] vs ref [18:50:14] Hits [18:50:16] also, quarrying the rats as a minor [18:50:41] 1d6+4 [18:50:41] Eilenia rolls 1D6+4: 2 +4 = 6 [18:51:41] 6 damage unless they have a vulnerability [18:51:52] 11, all swarms have area vulnerability [18:52:08] Whoop [18:52:13] That's my turn [18:53:04] And they take 7 (modified from 2) damage at the start of their next turn [18:55:42] God, this is fucking embarassing. I'm borrowing my mom's cell phone for the con so that I can actually keep in touch with people/for emergencies, and I'm trying to learn how to text because I've NEVER texted on a cell phone before. [18:55:57] Sup "never texted" buddy [18:56:06] PAera's turn [18:56:07] You're up, Yon [18:56:11] Texting [18:56:15] 's for queers anyways [18:56:47] NOW is the time for Divine Glow.

[18:57:15] 1d20+5 [18:57:16] Paera rolls 1D20+5: 12 +5 = 17 [18:57:56] Hits all around [18:58:53] 1d8+3 [18:58:53] Paera rolls 1D8+3: 2 +3 = 5 [18:58:59] 10 to the swarm then [18:59:05] Wait, derp [18:59:14] You have to roll attacks for each target [18:59:20] Let's say that was the swarm attack, then [18:59:27] It's just one in the blast radius. [18:59:34] Blast 1? [18:59:40] close blast 3 [18:59:44] Aaah [18:59:50] Cool [18:59:53] Aaah [19:00:06] Eve gains +2 to attack rolls until my next turn, also. [19:00:19] Nice [19:01:38] http://www.1up.com/do/newsStory?cId=3169193 What an odd but fun-sounding game [19:01:45] 8 damage, Yon [19:02:04] Xan's up? [19:02:07] Yep [19:03:12] moving back down to the doorway, twin fang strike at the sharpshooter [19:03:29] 1d20+7 1d20+7 [19:03:30] Xan rolls [ 1D20+7: 16 +7 = 23 ] [ 1D20+7: 2 +7 = 9 ] = 32 [19:03:40] One hit [19:03:50] 1d10+3 1d8 [19:03:50] Xan rolls [ 1D10+3: 1 +3 = 4 ] [ 1D8: 6 ] = 10 [19:03:55] Dead [19:04:22] Describe it, and you're up, Dem [19:04:34] Alright [19:04:41] CoDing the rats [19:04:43] 1d20+5 [19:04:43] Eilenia rolls 1D20+5: 19 +5 = 24 [19:04:49] 1d6+4 [19:04:50] Eilenia rolls 1D6+4: 2 +4 = 6 [19:04:54] 11 damage again [19:05:22] Dead [19:07:41] Oh, hey, forgot to record init for the second sharpshooter. :derp: [19:07:54] Minoring to remove the dagger cloud [19:09:57] Seriously, fuck text messaging. I thought nothing could be worse than trying to use the Playstation network with only a gamepad, but no, this is worse. [19:10:50] I hate texting [19:11:01] Also I am google image searching Iria so I can theoretically spot Nova's friend. :V [19:11:25] And I purposely type in complete sentences and with proper grammar [19:11:35] Search for Zeram The Animation [19:11:39] I can't fathom typing any other way. [19:11:43] He's much more recognizable. [19:12:03] I'm TRYING to type properly, but this bloody phone is actively fighting me. [19:12:45] Speaking of actively fighting, you're up. [19:12:50] Changing the capitalization every word unless I manually hit the shift button twice, not letting me use question marks unless I change the settings, etc. [19:13:26] Dire rat 2 is gone? [19:13:37] Yeah [19:13:47] No, one is gone [19:13:49] If I don't manually change capitalization, I Would GET something Like THIS [19:13:56] aah [19:14:07] geez [19:14:15] Take your turn, Yon [19:14:17] Sacred flame on the dire rat gnawing on Eve. [19:14:21] 1d20+5 [19:14:21] Paera rolls 1D20+5: 12 +5 = 17 [19:14:28] And sorry, I'm kinda distracted. :( [19:14:51] Hits [19:15:00] 1d6+3 [19:15:00] Paera rolls 1D6+3: 3 +3 = 6 [19:15:08] +3 temp hp for Eve. [19:15:12] Also, tossing a healing word. [19:15:16] 1d6 [19:15:16] Paera rolls 1D6: 4 [19:15:18] Nice [19:15:20] Surge+4 [19:15:46] ...When did the northern sharpshooter die? [19:15:53] Xan shot it up [19:15:59] Oh, right [19:16:02] Forgot that. :downs: [19:16:21] Xan's turn [19:17:09] if I move in, can I get a shot at the other ss? [19:17:22] Yeah [19:17:38] k [19:17:54] twin strike on it [19:18:12] Auarrying too [19:18:16] *quarrying [19:18:17] 1d20+7 1d20+7 [19:18:18] Xan rolls [ 1D20+7: 6 +7 = 13 ] [ 1D20+7: 4 +7 = 11 ] = 24 [19:18:56] Two misses [19:19:24] This is Zeram: http://www.costumemaker.com/ZRAM/Zeiram1.gif [19:20:15] This is Iria: http://mayafreaksblog.files.wordpress.com/2008/02/iria3.jpg [19:20:22] Go forth, and creep out my friends. [19:20:29] I just found that exact picture. Seems hard to miss. :V [19:20:30] Yay! [19:20:41] Your turn, Dem [19:20:46] Yeah [19:20:52] Whoo [19:20:52] I saw the head he constructed too. [19:20:57] It's hyoog [19:21:05] So, if it doesn't cause me a heart attack to do so, I will attempt to creep out your friends. :V [19:21:11] haha [19:21:25] You suffer from social anxiety? [19:21:26] Okay, question [19:21:29] The water, it's walkable? [19:21:40] Pretty badly, yeah. :V [19:21:51] (but I'm getting better) [19:21:58] Yeah. It's about thigh-deep and it'll push you east every turn you spend in it [19:22:05] How bout write a note that says "Novaseaker says Hi" and just toss it at them? [19:22:14] Just gonna spend my turn moving, then using THunderwave on the Dire Rats [19:22:26] Have a prewritten sign! [19:22:33] Hahaha [19:22:39] I support the sign idea [19:22:52] Yeah, they have a skit for the costume show thingy [19:22:55] That way, you could maybe creep out two people, I guess, and confuse a lot more [19:23:08] Go to it, sit up front, and when they get on (with kefka) just start waving the sign around [19:23:11] 1d20+5 [19:23:11] Eilenia rolls 1D20+5: 10 +5 = 15 [19:23:12] versus Fort [19:23:34] I was considering bull rushing the goblin, but I'd be rolling a straight d20 versus Fort on that [19:23:46] Hits [19:23:55] Well, d20+1 for being level 2 [19:24:00] 1d6+4 [19:24:01] Eilenia rolls 1D6+4: 3 +4 = 7 [19:24:21] I miss Eberron's AP [19:24:23] Alright, shoving him south [19:24:40] Eberron's AP didn't do enough, I thinl [19:24:43] Er, think. [19:24:46] Haha, I might just do that. I've never been to a proper cosplay show so I think that's definitely one of the events I'll try to go to. [19:24:54] I miss the option of getting +1d6 on a roll [19:25:09] Rather than rerolling or picking a new power or something [19:25:10] 1d6 was janky a lot of the time in my experience, though [19:25:10] Charles rolls 1D6: 6 [19:25:24] A lot of the time, it just meant a 33% chance of doing slightly better [19:25:28] It was, yeah [19:25:30] heh [19:25:51] I agree with that. Part of the reason I allowed the aspect things [19:25:52] Damn, Zeiram has a tiny head. [19:26:06] Zeiram has a huuuuuuuuuge head and a tiiiiny face. [19:26:13] You know who Zeiram reminds me of? (even though I realize he came first) [19:26:20] Who? [19:26:26] DOST THOU DESIRE THE POWER? [19:26:29] hahahaha. [19:26:31] hahahahaha [19:26:33] Yeah, I was thinking the same thing [19:26:44] Oh yeah, Nova [19:26:48] Yes? [19:26:50] [11:56:51] http://img.waffleimages.com/8366da3a61033d33e2b0d6b7305e5b9d1e2806ca/copyAgahnim.PNG [19:26:50] [11:56:54] http://img.waffleimages.com/d9016d100792091dedc0a9e5848de1297fee2ec5/copyAgahnim2.PN G [19:26:50] [11:57:10] http://img.waffleimages.com/7e4628bb3c48ef9dd3e6f9d38e6e566044e80b78/face.png [19:26:50] [11:57:19] "that's retarded you are all retarded for thinking that was his face " [19:27:02] I saw that the other day :3 [19:27:09] It was nagging at me while I looked at the picture and then suddenly HOLY SHIT THAT'S WHO HE REMINDS ME OF [19:27:12] Did I link it to you? ?_? [19:27:21] I was in channel [19:27:24] aah [19:27:27] heh [19:27:43] I got reminded of this pic because Not Zeiram was in that thread too [19:27:43] I really liked Xenogears. [19:27:44] Or, at least, we're out of rounds [19:28:17] I liked Xenogears but I didn't like it for the reason most people seemed to. :nyoron: [19:28:25] Long? [19:28:36] ALright, I don't think we'll get around to another combat tonight, unless Yon thinks he can [19:28:41] No, I liked it because it was absolutely hilarious. [19:28:54] I'd be up for playing more aside from that [19:29:03] * Charles nods [19:29:03] So it was just a narmfest for you [19:29:18] I have no idea what that means but I guess so? [19:29:43] Also, ACTION POINTS [19:29:44] And I think I need to stop, I don't have much time left and I'm too preoccupied to play properly anyway. [19:29:47] * Eilenia nods [19:29:51] http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/Narm [19:29:57] Well, if we cant keep going, you wanna play ffh dem? [19:30:11] I can certainly try. [19:30:54] No, I'm pretty sure most of the stuff I was laughing at WAS intentionally funny. [19:31:03] Yeah, should have gone for the bull rush. I shove it over, I end up standing in front of the door, he can't get thorugh [19:31:03] Oh heh [19:31:40] The game was a non-stop parade of mecha jokes. [19:31:53] I made jokes? [19:32:01] No, Xwnogears [19:32:04] xeno even [19:32:05] ah [19:32:28] I'm still convinced that the second disc was a big meta-joke. [19:32:35] Heh [19:32:48] It smacked of "last two episodes of Eva" [19:32:52] Exactly. [19:32:56] * NovaSeaker nods. [19:33:06] Yeah, [19:33:11] It was pretty obviously Eva [19:33:11] Personally, I thought the whole split-personality main character thing was *awesome*. [19:33:23] I mean come on, it's still images, exposition, and Fei sitting IN A CHAIR IN A SPOTLIGHT. [19:33:38] I was pretty surprised they referred to Dissociative Identity Disorder instead of the outmoded term Multiple Perosnality Disorder. [19:33:57] Though I hear MPD keeps getting used in stuff like Heroes. [19:34:01] Yeah, Id was one of the things that I found genuinely cool about the game. [19:34:06] I don't think the term's been in medical use since the 80s. [19:34:26] Especially since, in that previously mentioned period of my life where I roleplayed on the Prodigy network chatrooms and didn't know how annoying I was because everyone in those chatrooms was as exactly as annoying as I, my character had a split personality. [19:34:33] (and the mech designs were great) [19:34:46] I like Wing-Arm-Ears. [19:35:08] I named my Lopunny after it because I misunderstood Lopunny's sprite. :V [19:35:22] haha [19:35:28] Crescence [19:35:30] Or something [19:35:43] (Seriously, I had no idea it had arms bunched up in front of it's chest.) [19:36:09] And the best Gear was Siebzehn. :colbert: [19:36:10] Crescens [19:36:26] Seibzehn was cool [19:36:38] I thought Weltall-2 had comically huge thighs. [19:36:56] I was like "Holy crap, you're giving me Giant Robo in my party? SWEET." [19:37:09] (plus it has an awesome theme song) [19:37:53] heh [19:37:56] I love that song [19:39:25] I liked the battle system too [19:39:26] Plus they had Voltron and the goddamn SDF-1. If it wasn't for the Tower of Babel I would go back and replay the game to see how much more I can geek out over it given how much more mecha anime I've seen (old and new) since then. [19:39:44] Also, the character moves were some of the most awesome things I'd ever seen at that point in my life. [19:40:01] "HOLY SHIT DID I JUST KICK A GUY INTO THE AIR AND THEN PUNCH HIM BACK TO THE GROUND?!?!?!" [19:40:17] Goddamn Tower of Babel [19:40:25] More like Tower of Bibarel, am I right? >:( [19:40:36] ...Bibarel? [19:40:45] No, Bibarels are actually useful even if they are ugly and stupid. [19:40:54] I wasn't too bad at the tower of babel [19:40:54] ... seriously? [19:41:04] I only failed jumping puzzels like... fifty times. [19:41:06] Best HM slave in gen 4. [19:41:13] True [19:42:09] Tower of Babel nearly cost me a controller. [19:42:14] haha [19:42:19] And I am NOT a controller breaker. [19:42:31] Seriously though, I liked the Tower of Babel [19:42:37] Especially the music. [19:42:56] I think the music for it helped sooth me anger when I fell from a jumping puzzel, cause hey, I got to listen to the music longer. [19:43:03] I shudder to think of how much angrier it would have made me if I hadn't already been somewhat desensitized by Worst Jumping Puzzle Ever. [19:43:19] (also known as Ultima 8) [19:43:24] heh [19:43:41] The worst jumping puzzles ever are in FPSs. [19:43:52] Oh yeah, Nova. A word about the original Half-Life games that I gave you last Christmas [19:43:57] I think Yahtzee might've had a short rant about it. [19:44:01] The enemy AI is smarter than in HL2. [19:44:04] Oh? [19:44:05] Hah [19:44:18] They'll do things like use grenades to flush you out, try to get into flanking positions, etc. [19:44:20] No, see, this is what makes the Ultima 8 jumping puzzles so bad. [19:44:33] You have NO CONTROL over your jumping distance. [19:44:33] HL2, not so much. Which saddened me [19:44:37] ... what [19:44:46] ...is it always the same? [19:44:57] Or is it randomized? [19:44:58] You point and hit the button, and then you pray to god that you estimated the distance right. [19:45:45] At some points, you don't have any room to move around on the platforms, so it becomes a very literal puzzle. [19:46:06] As you jump way out of your way to find the platform exactly the right distance from the one you want to land on. [19:46:24] Alright, that was pretty solid in terms of progression [19:46:32] (naturally all the jumping puzzles take place above instant kill floors) [19:46:33] Yeah [19:46:38] Two fights in one session is amazing [19:46:41] Everyone gets 313 XP [19:46:45] * Paera is now known as Yon [19:46:47] Any gear? [19:46:56] Or gold. [19:47:00] Nope. [19:47:05] 313 XP is god [19:47:22] Also, something I'm thinking about doing is using multiple instances of IRC again. [19:47:23] er, good. [19:47:32] For NPCs and the like [19:47:34] Oh, by the way, Nova. You need to watch Xam'd. [19:47:43] I realized that I can't remember the name of the woman we talked to. [19:47:54] * Xan is now known as Mechazawa [19:48:21] Sometimes I'll say stuff through the wrong window, but I think it'd defintely help me make better NPCs. [19:48:33] Yeah. [19:49:20] I think I'll try that next session [19:49:50] by the way, for the party notes, this is what I have. [19:49:52] Session 6 [19:49:52] --------- [19:49:52] We talk to a lady for a while [19:49:52] Session 7 [19:49:52] --------- [19:49:52] We visit the water system. [19:49:52] Session 8 [19:49:52] --------- [19:49:52] We gain 313 XP [19:50:02] It's from mostly the same team that made Eureka 7, and it's got OAV quality animation despite being weekly. [19:50:04] Hey dem, wanna play ffh now? [19:50:23] I could give it a shot. [19:50:33] Charles, you up for it? [19:50:33] cool. Can't host here, so after you! [19:52:22] * Charles (CHBoucher@dsl2-161.gsinet.net) Quit (Ping timeout: 180 seconds) [19:53:11] heh, guess not at present [19:53:18] I think he had trouble finding his discs [19:53:22] http://demota.sandwich.net/rpg/ednd/odal/ [19:53:23] Logs updated [19:53:48] I miss Phanos. [19:54:59] * Charles (CHBoucher@dsl2-161.gsinet.net) has joined #Exalted [19:55:00] * ChanServ sets mode: +o Charles [19:55:08] wb cha [19:55:10] What's Xam'd? [19:55:13] Damnit, some kind of brownout just happened [19:55:21] everything ok? [19:55:32] Yeah. Nothing shorted to my knowledge [19:55:40] that's good [19:55:43] Re [19:56:05] I've uploaded the logs [19:56:17] I'd also like to request assistance fleshing out the party log. [19:56:35] What I was hoping to have is a summary of each session, both plot and mechanics. [19:57:14] Nova: Four episodes in, I'm not entirely sure, other than "This is a lot like Eureka 7 and I mean that in a good way" End of #Exalted buffer Wed Aug 06 19:58:02 2008
