Session Start: Sat Sep 26 00:00:00 2009 Session Ident: #Exalted 03[12:49:25] * Yon (dlarmour@wnpgmb1303w-ad03-42-185.dynamic.mts.net) has joined #Exalted [12:51:25] Hey 02[12:51:34] * Demotafk (demota@71.202.41.240) Quit (Quit: Client Exited) 01[13:01:17] http://freemind.sourceforge.net/wiki/index.php/Main_Page Whooo. Free flowchart program. I haven't figured out all the kinks yet, though 01[13:06:23] My charts suck. :( 01[13:07:13] http://www.destructoid.com/tgs-09-kojima-wanted-mgs4-to-have-its-own-controller-150025.phtml [13:07:22] what [13:07:32] Oh Kojima 01[13:07:34] http://www.destructoid.com/tgs-09-good-times-for-rpg-fans-150002.phtml [13:16:02] ...Kingdom Hearts is turning into the new Street Fighter 2. 01[13:16:11] ? [13:16:49] All these "Kingdom Hears: Foo" and no Kingdom Hearts 3 01[13:17:07] aah 01[13:17:18] Well, at least it's like... actual different games this time :V [13:17:32] That is true 01[16:50:36] Oh, for that Exalted thing. I'm gonna figure that you can have free upshifts if you do the Anima Banner thing, to sort of simulate blowing Essence 01[17:00:20] I haven;t figured out what should be difficult or easy with charm use, though. 01[17:02:11] ... man, I just relaized that I didn't updat emy Mage sheet yet. 01[17:03:07] I'll give it a shot 01[17:23:36] That went easier than expected. 01[17:23:43] Though I'm not done yet. 03[17:43:31] * Cheeseball (mahamari@adsl-71-138-135-199.dsl.pltn13.pacbell.net) has joined #Exalted 01[17:43:38] Hey Maha [17:43:59] Heya. [17:44:02] Did you guys play last night? 01[17:44:09] Nope 01[17:44:22] We ended up pulling a last-minute pick-up game that went surprisingly well [17:45:19] Ah, cool. :3 What game? 01[17:45:27] We ended up running Exalted, but in the PDQ system [17:45:31] Btw, any word about CV? I don't see anyone in-channel. 01[17:45:41] I tihnk it might move days soon. [17:45:45] Ah, okay. 01[17:45:51] THere' stalk about pushing it to Thurs? [17:45:51] It'd be nice to free up Saturday, actually. 06[17:46:00] * Demota nods 01[17:46:03] You want Mage moved? [17:46:57] If CV moves, I wouldn't mind, but it depends if it works out for everyone else. [17:47:11] Saturday's a hard day for me because of the social events that get scheduled then. 06[17:47:21] * Demota nods [17:47:25] I can make another weekday if CV moves. [17:47:29] (to Thursday) [17:47:37] Else, I can make it on the same day as CV. 01[17:47:40] Oh, do you know if Ange's.. what's it. The schedule. If it's finalized. [17:49:48] She's getting on IRC. [17:49:50] Just a sec. 03[17:50:04] * Ange (anjogiraff@adsl-71-138-135-199.dsl.pltn13.pacbell.net) has joined #Exalted [17:50:34] Now you can ask her yourself. ;P 01[17:50:37] Haha. 01[17:50:40] Hullo! [17:50:47] Hello! 01[17:51:13] Your schedule thingy. YOu mentioned you might have it finalized in a week or two or so? [17:51:37] Yes, I think so. 01[17:51:44] Cool 01[17:52:02] And it looks like monday might be an okay day? [17:52:20] Yup, at this point it looks like Monday night is probably the best 01[17:53:12] Alright. We might be able to shift over that one game I was talking to you about. [17:53:13] Oh, hi guys. 01[17:53:16] Hey Yon 01[17:53:17] What's up? [17:53:21] Heya, Yon. [17:53:44] Ange, Yon. Yon, Ange. Ange is my sister. :3 [17:53:50] Nice to meet you! [17:54:03] (Sorry if I'm slow to respond, working on math hw right now. :P) [17:54:12] Hi, nice to meet you too! 01[17:54:12] Calculus II? [17:54:27] Haha, it's "abstract algebra" 01[17:54:38] Is that like the painting of the melting clocks? :( [17:54:48] Haha. [17:56:50] Haha, painting melting clocks might be more fun. 01[17:57:21] Perhaps! 01[17:58:16] Did you have time to think over those character classes? [17:58:19] When's Mage starting up, btw? [17:58:26] What's running on Monday? 01[17:58:53] Currently, an Eberron game, but we might swap Monday and Wednesday around to make room for Ange's schedule if everyone's cool. 01[17:59:06] Mage will probably start when Charles gets back, which should be soon 01[17:59:19] He decided that he wanted to check out some Buddhist temples since he'd never been inside one before [17:59:54] Sorry, I haven't had too much time to look at the character classes... ^^; 01[18:00:01] No prob. 01[18:00:05] Quick summary agian. [18:00:08] Oh, cool. I like Buddhist temples. 01[18:00:37] You were interested in the Divine sorts, yeah? [18:01:51] Yeah, I think that might be fun. 01[18:02:00] Alright, quick summary. 01[18:02:11] Paladin: Heavily armored melee fighter. Defender role, tanks. 01[18:02:46] Cleric: Divine caster that can fight and buff. Can go melee or range. Medium armored. Leader role, supports. 01[18:04:09] Invoker: Divine caster that focuses on battlefield control and hurting groups of enemies. Gets more powerful if enemies start hurting friends, or so I hear. Controller role. 01[18:04:13] Avenger: Batman [18:04:35] :o [18:05:42] What game is this discussion for? 01[18:05:58] Odal's Fen 01[18:06:01] Ange may join us. 03[18:06:44] * Alt-Eisen (Rook@cpe-76-175-9-161.socal.res.rr.com) has joined #Exalted 01[18:06:58] The Avenger is a melee fighter, little armor, and almost never misses. 01[18:06:59] Hi AE [18:07:18] moo [18:07:50] Ah! Neat [18:07:53] Hey AE. [18:08:11] Hi, AE. [18:08:22] Hi! [18:09:25] moo moo 01[18:09:26] If you're wondering about our group's makeup, we've got a Wizard (Controller), Cleric (Leader), Paladin (Defender). Then a Ranger (Striker) that misses sessions from time to time, and an Artificer (Leader) that almost never shows up due to busyness. [18:09:28] moo [18:09:50] Ah, I see. 01[18:10:13] So if you want to fill in a party role, the Avenger might be a good way to go, but the game's flexible enough that you can play whatever you like 01[18:13:55] If you want to look at other classes outside of the Divine power source, that's fine too. I can sum them up for you if you want. [18:16:16] Oh, okay. What other categories are there? 01[18:17:11] There are three or four other power sources. "Divine" is a power source. 01[18:18:18] The Martial power source is people with no supernatural ability. They're just super fit. The Fighter (Defender), Rogue (Striker), Ranger (Striker), and Warlord (Leader) fall under this power source. 01[18:19:26] The Arcane power source is people who know arcane magic. These are the Wizard (Controller), Warlock (Striker), Sorcerer (Striker), Artificer (Leader), and Swordmage (Defender) 01[18:20:05] The Primal power source is people who have a connection with the spirits of the natural world. These include the Barbarian (Striker), Warden (Defender), Druid (Controller), and Shaman (Leader). 01[18:20:52] The Shadow power source is special. It's not technically "out" yet. For people with D&D Insider (a D&D article subscription from the company. Gets you access to other nifty things), there's one class with that power source as a special thing. 01[18:21:21] They call on the power of shadow and darkness. The only class there right now is the Assassin (Striker). 01[18:22:10] The Psionic power source is in the same boat. Kinda. There are playtest copies of two psionic classes. The final versions come out in February or March or so. There's the Psion (controller) and Monk (striker) 01[18:22:16] That's all the classes. 01[18:22:19] I did that from memory. 01[18:22:22] How did I do that from memory. [18:23:32] I really need some cell phone numbers from you dudes so I can text if something comes up 01[18:23:49] I gave you my cell phone number. :/ [18:23:51] I just did a Zendikar prerelease on a whim, and it ended up taking WAY longer than I expected [18:23:56] Well, I never saved it. What is it? 01[18:24:13] Did anyone draw a super rare old card? Thhere's like, one in every 20 boxes. [18:24:18] Nope 01[18:24:19] People are pulling Moxes and Lotuses. 01[18:24:22] 510-366-9061 [18:25:32] I don't have a cellphone to text [18:25:53] I don't give out my cell number freely [18:26:18] I probably wouldn't text you anyways so we cool. [18:26:24] ah [18:26:40] I can't receive texts on my plan. :( 01[18:27:24] :( [18:27:27] Zendikar is a really cool set, thematically. [18:27:34] is someone planning to run a D&D game here? [18:27:44] They kinda made it, like, the D&D set without any real D&D stuff [18:28:11] But it introduces adventurers, traps, and there's a heavy exploration theme, buffered by stuff that gets buffed when lands are played. And Quests, for that matter 01[18:29:01] AE: There's been D&D games, yeah. 01[18:29:05] Huh, cool [18:29:09] ah [18:29:34] still have that there Warforged Monk for 4e waiting to be used 06[18:29:49] * Demota nods 01[18:29:59] I've got my own character concept I'd like to use in a future 4e game. [18:30:02] Quests range from stuff like "When you play three lands, sac this card and do X" to "When you attack with a creature seven times, all your creatures get +5/+5" 01[18:30:06] Huh, cool [18:30:36] The constructed players were bitching that there wasn'tn enough power and that it was a new Kamigawa [18:30:44] But I certainly had more fun with magic than I have in years [18:31:42] Did you get the text I sent, Dem? [18:31:50] Anti-grognards.txt [18:31:50] And speaking of fun with magic, who's up for Mage? 01[18:32:19] Let me go check my phone [18:32:28] I sure as hell am. [18:32:33] Competitive game grognards are different. They LOVE power creep as long as they can use that shit 01[18:33:26] I'm okay 01[18:33:38] Joined #Mage [18:33:41] what is Mage? [18:33:54] Well they sure seemed to be freaking out about the Magic revisions [18:34:04] Also, hahahahah [18:34:04] More important than naming your character, is picking a name and title gimmick combo. [18:34:04] Governor of Stormwind recently left the guild "Wrongfully Elected", much to my dismay. [18:34:04] Sunrise of the Nightfall, who for some reason isn't displaying her title on the armory. [18:34:04] Bloodsail Admiral Arrthas, who I found in a BG one day complaining of scurvy and lack of cirtrusy foods in wow. [18:34:04] And of course Champchamp Champion of the Naaru. [18:34:05] Yeah, true. [18:34:13] Joined #mage. [18:34:24] But that was another thing. It made the game's rules more comprehensible. Which made them less like actual wizards. :V [18:34:50] AE: It's an RPG set in the modern day, about people who've woken up to the truth about the world. [18:35:02] ah [18:35:44] Which is to say, it's a prison created by monstrous gods who range from uncaring to hostile, and that the only way out is by ascending to godhood. Also, they can shape reality with the force of their imaginations. 01[18:35:47] Charles; I got the text. [18:35:50] Cool [18:36:45] The Magic rule changes confuse me a little, but only because the timing on combat tricks is entirely different now. Like, it used to be a big thing to suspend damage and do stupid tricks to make it so only the other dude got hurt [18:36:47] Hahahhah "Someday I shall make an undead hunter named Overtown and become exalted with the Forsaken." [18:37:05] And that was absolutely moronic, but it became second nature after drafting for a year and a half [18:37:18] (leading to Overtown of the Undercity) [18:41:46] Hahah [18:42:34] Oh, that reminds me: Dan at Myriad Games gave me a deal on the WoW CCG (As he often does with poorly-selling CCGs) and gave me two starters plus a collection of cards from the first couple sets along with the MC raid deck I bought [18:44:50] So now I have a not-shitty collection of cards. :toot: 03[18:45:01] * Yon is now known as Natalya [18:45:02] (also, the raid decks have a really cute idea) [18:45:16] They come with a sealed 10 card Treasure booster of what is presumably pretty nice cards 03[18:45:21] * Cheeseball is now known as EriA [18:45:35] Made so that, if you're running a raid, you can give the booster to your friends when they beat it for the first time 03[18:46:02] * ChanServ sets mode: +o Demota [18:46:10] More like only the friend with the most DKP gets it. :| 01[18:46:15] Hang on, someone's claimed the Lily name [18:46:23] Hahah [18:46:24] Dang 01[18:47:01] I've got it regeed, though, I think 01[18:47:06] I cna't remmeber how to nickserv kick someone [18:47:23] It's /msg nickserv ghost name password [18:47:25] I think. 03[18:47:58] * Demota is now known as Lily 01[18:48:01] Got it [18:48:37] (that was what got me strange tells on Megumi :V ) [18:48:52] Someone else had the nick? [18:49:35] Yeah, and may have had it regged at some point but let it expire. [18:49:41] So I ganked it. :V [18:49:44] Hehhe. [18:49:52] Also hahahah http://img.waffleimages.com/b145adf23ea95f69b57609976651dcfdba826162/WoWScrnShot_071909_160308.jpg 01[18:49:53] It was Recover, then Release. [18:53:55] Hahahahahah [18:55:54] Man, I'm totally melting. Is it hot where you are, too, Dem? 01[18:56:12] yeah 01[18:56:13] :/ [18:56:28] It shouldn't be this hot at the end of September. :( 01[18:56:46] yeah. :/ [18:58:48] I just had to turn the AC on...I live in _CANADA_. [18:59:36] O Canada? [18:59:58] D: [19:00:01] Hot there too? 01[19:00:05] Geez 01[19:00:11] It's hot here too. 01[19:00:13] In AMERICA [19:00:23] F-yeah! [19:04:21] Cha, could you remind me what I discovered from checking out the corpse/crime scene last game? [19:04:43] Ahahahahah [19:04:46] The best hunter/pet/guild combo ever is. [19:04:46] Hunter. Darmok [19:04:46] Pet. Jalad [19:04:46] Guild. Tanagra [19:05:10] What does it mean? [19:06:43] I... almost remember [19:06:46] It's a reference to a really cool episode of Star Trek: TNG. [19:06:55] Oh, last time, you found out: [19:06:58] Darmok and Jalad at Tanagra. [19:07:03] There is a ghost by the corpse. 01[19:07:14] Enkidu with Gilgamesh [19:07:19] The corpse is devoid of blood. There blood is on the ground, in sort of a four-lobed design [19:07:38] His ribs are splayed open, but that's not specifically magical. [19:08:05] Oh, and he was tied to a sidewalk plyon. The kind that keeps cars from jumping the sidewalk in busy vehiclular/pedestrian areas 03[19:08:22] * Adyen (senranda@74.12.134.243) has joined #Exalted [19:08:35] What did I see magically, again? I totally can't remember. 01[19:08:46] Hey, Adyen 01[19:08:50] Game just started. 06[19:08:50] * EriA waves. 01[19:08:55] I saw that time was compressed. [19:09:13] Yeah. Lily saw that time was compressed. IIRC, you saw a ghost with death sight [19:09:24] Or maybe used some other supernatural sight to notice an aura [19:09:28] Ah, that sounds vaguely familiar. [19:09:32] Not tied to a body, and tinged with death essence [19:09:37] And kinda put two and two together [19:10:30] I think I saw something about it being magical in nature or something? [19:10:43] What does it mean when you see a ghost not tied to the body? [19:10:56] Well, I mean an aura wasn't on a body [19:10:59] Just kinda hanging there 03[19:11:08] * Adyen is now known as Dmitrii [19:11:20] Adyen: Yeah, you saw that it was powerfully magical but didn't really read much deeper, IIRC [19:11:42] I still have to send you my updated sheet, I believe. [19:12:39] Oh, yeah. Did everyone rejigger their sheets with the new chargen method? [19:12:56] I know I did. [19:13:35] Oh, uh. What changed? [19:13:41] I don't think I've changed anything yet. 01[19:13:57] I did, partway [19:14:00] I think Dem has a document. Basically, the standard chargen system is hilariously fucked [19:14:27] So someone figured out how the XP values of the 'best' character you could make [19:14:42] And wrote up a chargen system where you buy everything with XP from the start [19:17:18] Oh. How much needs to be changed? [19:18:15] What kind of aura do we see on Rose, given that she's a Sleeper? [19:18:25] I need to fix my rotes and the speed/etc [19:18:28] Or whatever she's called. x_x;;; I forget. [19:19:52] She's a Sleepwalker, so it's muted, like a Sleeper aura, with faint sparkles [19:20:05] Were rotes 2xlevel? [19:20:11] and how much xp we get for that again? [19:20:22] And you pretty much need to redo all the numbers. You'll probably end up with slightly higher stats than before, because of how the normal chargen system is fucked up [19:21:20] Ah. D'oh. [19:21:27] Hey, Dem? Could you share your doc with me on that? 01[19:21:51] one moment [19:22:02] Rotes are two points per dot, and XP for rotes should be mentioned in the doc [19:22:23] Thanks. :3 01[19:22:30] http://docs.google.com/View?id=dd88vhbs_81dv8t89dk [19:24:01] How much XP do we start out with to use? 01[19:26:32] ADyen: Hopped into the channel [19:26:54] which one? [19:26:57] Or are the amounts in the doc the ones we start out with? [19:26:58] >_> [19:27:16] The latter 01[19:27:39] #mage [19:27:41] If you don't spend all of the XP, you can bank it in that category for later, and spend it with normal XP for increases in that area [19:27:42] #mage [19:28:41] Their apt has a view of the crime scene too? 01[19:29:02] Yeah 01[19:31:32] Do we have a plan for meeting with Dmitrii? [19:31:40] I've got nothing. 01[19:31:41] Also, we need to move Youkai and Mage's days soonish... 01[19:31:45] Adyen, what about you? [19:31:49] He lives by Lily and Rose, right? [19:31:53] Is it the same building? [19:32:06] About five blocks away, I think. Adyen wanted something directly overlooking the Square 06[19:32:37] * EriA nods. 01[19:32:55] Once this is cleared up, we need to discuss scheduling [19:33:44] Okies. [19:34:37] Cha> And the XP costs are in the book? [19:34:48] Yeah [19:34:51] Ah, okay. [19:34:55] I'll have to go through everything again later. [19:35:14] In the chargen section of Mage. You may also need to go into the NWoD corebook, too [19:35:42] Okay. :3 Thanks! [19:46:21] Ack. I gotta go eat dinner. [19:46:43] I think I'll have Eri leave her contact information with everyone, then go back home to contact Simmonds. I'll be back after dinner. :3 02[19:47:58] * Ange (anjogiraff@adsl-71-138-135-199.dsl.pltn13.pacbell.net) Quit (Ping timeout: 180 seconds) [19:51:12] All right. I'll be right back. Dinner. :3 01[19:51:21] k [19:55:47] So, where's everyone in game? 01[20:03:37] Do I know either of those terms/ 01[20:03:42] And we're all in Lily's apartment. [20:04:29] You know who those are, yeah [20:04:43] The Seers are, well, the Seers of the Throne. They control Harvard. [20:04:53] The Shadow Chorus is Boston's Guardians of the Veil cabal. [20:05:08] Masked, berobed, and *super* creepy. [20:06:47] The SMG is a MIT Campus Free Council cabal, and the Fortress is their Sanctum. An old brownstone 01[20:10:47] And what's going on with Dmitrii? 02[20:11:22] * Dmitrii (senranda@74.12.134.243) Quit (Read error: Operation timed out) 01[20:13:59] Manray's? [20:15:23] It's a bar in Boston. You've probably heard it mentioned a few times by your mentor and mayeb the SMG mages. It's kind of a hangout for mages from the Boston Metropolitan area [20:15:43] (Which is to say, from southern New Hampshire to Rhode Island) [20:16:44] As well as other supernaturals, if rumors are to be believed [20:17:37] (Though they're unconfirmed, as it would take giant fucking balls to see a weird aura and go up to its owner and be all "Hi, I just noticed that you appear to not be a human! So, what's up with that?" 03[20:18:11] * Dmitrii (senranda@74.12.134.243) has joined #Exalted [20:18:32] ung. My usb drivers all crashed on me 01[20:18:35] re, Adyen. 01[20:18:36] :/ [20:22:16] Eleggua is the leader of the SMG. Lily may have been introduced to him in passing. 01[20:32:14] So what's happening with Dmitrii now? 01[20:32:19] Is Adyen literally just waiting for all of us? [20:32:29] >_> I have NO idea what's happening [20:32:49] I figure that anyone who's at all knowledgable about urban legends recognizes that what Rose is describing isn't exactly an unusual story. 01[20:32:50] We're in Lily's apartmnet, discussing stuff. [20:32:55] Well, that, and I'm eating too, so... [20:33:23] The dizziness is where it differs from the typical roofies story, but there's a few versions of that going around. 01[20:33:44] Dmitrii isn't with us, I thought [20:33:49] Woah, woah, last I heard, Dmitrii was in his own apartment, yeah [20:34:08] Really? [20:34:21] Didn't someone say that everyone was at Lily's appartment? [20:34:23] >_> 01[20:34:30] My bad. [20:34:32] Or was that everyone except Dmitrii? 01[20:34:37] It's everyone but you, yeah. :/ 01[20:34:44] I'm not sure how to get you in with the rest of the group [20:35:25] Ehhh. There's always ways, but just take back what I just said. [20:36:08] Maybe Dmitrii might decide to hit up Manray's under his own volition. 01[20:36:11] We have a way to get Dmitrii over to the Manray's? [20:36:26] The fact that it's the big place for mages to chill out isn't exactly secret knowledge [20:39:41] Is Nat even old enough to legally drink there? [20:40:06] She's a freshman, right? [20:40:32] Yeah, 19 years old. 01[20:40:55] Maybe she can ask for melon soda. [20:41:23] Maybe she can meet a Buddhist monk who's tired of life. :* EriA nods. "Are you locals?" [20:41:23] My family's about an hour out of Boston, I'm living on campus. [20:41:23] Sort of close [20:41:23] Oh. I'm sort of new around here. Haven't really met a lot of people yet. [20:41:33] Wow, that was a weird paste 01[20:41:44] haha [20:42:08] Cha: Hahahaha [20:43:18] Why is Rose referring to herself in the third person :| 01[20:43:20] I like to imagine Rose calling herself Rose-chan and talking in a high-pitched voice. [20:43:39] Hahaha [20:43:48] I just had a brainfart. It's getting on midnight. :| [20:44:17] Oh, I just remembered, the way they did adventurers in Zendikar was pretty cool 01[20:44:22] Do we wrap up soon? 01[20:44:27] Adyen hasn't gotten a chance to play at all. :/ [20:44:43] There's now a creature type called Ally. And every Ally has an ability that triggers whenever an Ally comes into play. 01[20:45:07] huh 01[20:45:19] I know nothing about bars or whatever, so I really can't be in charge of this thing. :( [20:45:21] If we want to keep going, we can. I feel like a dick cutting off before he can do anything [20:45:30] I don't really mind today. I said I was eating [20:45:51] >_> And I got to sleep soon. I should have gotten back earlier. [20:45:55] Dem: Think of a bar as being like a restaurant but with music and dancing. 06[20:46:02] * Lily nods :/ [20:46:09] From what I read, I get the impression that Manray's is a discotheque. [20:47:03] Which means that the restaurant part is minimalized, though there are likely to be booths and a bar to sit at and the like. It also has functions as a gay bar and S&M club, so the music probably isn't so obnoxious as to eliminate conversations 06[20:47:43] * Lily idly pokes AE. [20:47:58] ja? [20:48:53] Ahahahha "I was looking for the source for this http://cerberus.mirror.waffleimages.com/files/19/1989cd1421da2880f282f93dac3b9d7e1dbc9976.png and ended up finding this: http://img.waffleimages.com/631d12ec6db8cddb2cc5e219206b1322dbde7aff/nabakov.jpg " 01[20:48:58] How does tomorrow look for you for stuffs? 01[20:49:07] hahahaha 01[20:49:17] I love that page 01[20:49:28] Fast-forward to the bar? [20:49:46] depends if I'm tired or not after going over to my friend's. Should be okay 01[20:50:00] I was wondeirng if we might be able to cram in some Exalted time, if someone else gets a character idea to stat up [20:50:03] Sure, let's fast forward [20:50:13] tomorrow? 01[20:50:16] MAGE TIME 2 POWERS, ACTIVATE 01[20:50:28] Yeah. I guess I missed Exalted more than I thought [20:50:31] BROFISTS 01[20:51:29] I wonder what the do gthing is from anyway [20:51:42] It LOOKS like the dog from Eden, sort of. [20:51:52] The first one, I mean. 01[20:55:01] Is anyone having problems logging into drivethrurpg? 01[20:55:07] I haven't been able to log on all day, and I'm worried. [20:55:09] I'm gonna say that Lily could have used some Fate magic to make it so the bouncer forgot to check Nat's ID [20:55:19] Their logon system changed as is fucked, according to Dan 01[20:55:27] as is? 01[20:55:29] Cool [20:55:31] Back. 01[20:55:35] Hey Maha [20:55:45] He needed to call them and get their tech support guy to special-case him in so he could buy my PDFs 01[20:55:49] ah. :/ [20:56:07] (But that fate thing is something you should be thinking of yourself. You have powers, use them. :|) 01[20:56:16] oh 01[20:56:22] I thought that would be a Mind effect, though 01[20:56:27] Or require Fate + Mind [20:57:16] Mind is for doing it as "You don't need to see our identification." :V [20:57:37] Yeah. For a minor helpful coincidence, Fate is the new Entropy [20:59:04] Oh, yeah. Anything from Simmonds when I call? [21:00:31] So, are we going to say that I'm at the bar? [21:01:30] Sure 03[21:02:33] * Ange (anjogiraff@adsl-71-138-135-199.dsl.pltn13.pacbell.net) has joined #Exalted 01[21:03:17] Exercising a Fate effect. 01[21:03:20] Hihi. [21:05:45] And did you want to know anything specific from Simmonds? If not, he'll probably mention that a member of the Shadow Chorus appeared to the Brotherhood of the Ineffable Truth, a Mysterium cabal he has ties to, warning not to look too deeply into what's happened in Harvard Square [21:05:48] Hey [21:06:16] Dem: What're you attempting to do with this Fate effect? 01[21:07:19] Make it so I'm more likely to overhear something [21:09:14] I'm gonna say that the Fate effect draws your attention to Dmitrii because frankly, you need a shove from fate. :| 01[21:09:44] Did I overhear a thing he said? [21:10:13] Sure [21:10:16] Cha> She'd probably also ask him if it's safer if she butts out. [21:10:43] Also, she'd want to know what could cause the effects she and Lily saw. (Time compression and the ghost) [21:10:54] Academic interest and all that. :) [21:10:59] http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3197367 Oh SWEET. [21:11:02] He'd almost certainly say that for the time being, it is safer. 01[21:11:10]
