--[[User:Matts|Matts]] 10:10, 4 September 2008 (MST)Something's come up: a friend is leaving the country for good and having his goodbye party on the 12th. I intend to go, which means that there wouldn't be a Super Heroes game. I have a crazy notion, though: A one-time shift to Saturday night, assuming we can arrange for a place to hold the game. What say y'all?  Or you could stick to Friday night and just play magic or do whatever.

==Ranting and raving or other random comments==
 
  
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 14:21, 30 August 2008 (MST) Hero system question.  If I buy Energy Blast 10d6, can I use the power at 5d6 and spend half the END, or do i need to spend the full END even when using power at lower level (I actually want to know for my Images spell, but EB was easier to describe).
 
  
JASON: Unless you have a limitation on the power which forbids using it at a lower level you may use any power level up to its maximum and pay the appropriate END cost (1 END/10 Active).
+
== Ranting and Raving ==

'''GABE:''' That is like ultra-nerd.  But very cool.  Also your dang right you have END problems, like how my foot always ENDs up in yer ass!  Sorry, couldn't resist (opening for mom jokes).
+
--[[User:Jason|Jason]] 12:38, 22 January 2013 (MST)Ladies and gentledudes, I have received an email from Ed and he is officially populating the earth with Edlings. He now has two kids, a boy (Theo) and a girl (Ella). He seems to be doing well, and I continue to be jealous of him. Reckanize.
 
+
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 15:31, 3 September 2008 (MST) No, see, I want more END.  I want your mom's foot to END up in my ass more.  um...
+
 
+
'''GABE:''' Nice, foot up ass fetish.
+
 
+
On a side note, both me and Noelle applied at a school in Japan.  She got to the interview step and I didn't... I really must be doing something wrong.  Maybe attaching the photo of me stepping on their flag did it.

'''shindig on aug 30/31'''
+
 
+
JASON: Also, I will be having a massive shindig for mine and Rumi's birthdays on either August 30th or 31st.  I would like to see as many of you jokers as possible attend.  Mark it on your calendar.  I am planning on renting a venue so we have plenty of space for games, Rock Band, and partying.  Does anyone know of a centrally located, reasonably priced, venue?
+
 
+
'''GABE:'''  I'd like to come, I'm trying to be more social.  A central and big location for partying thats cheap?  *insert your mom comment*
+
 
+
KIM:  Oooh, I'll be back in town then, might have a job that weekend, but will try to keep it during reasonable hours so that I can show up and commandeer the potato chip bowl... *nom nom nom*
+
 
+
--[[User:Dieterthebold|Dieter the Bold]] 17:26, 26 August 2008 (MST) I'm attending PAX this weeknd. So let me know what the plan is on any shindigs so I can plan appropriately.
+
 
+
JASON: So, it looks like we will be having an all afternoon/evening thing on Sunday the 31.  For those of you who dont know, I lost my job.  So, this is why we are being significantly less high brow about the affair.  Lets do a bbq/potluck thing.  As many of you jokers as possible should come!
+
 
+
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 09:37, 28 August 2008 (MST) dude-ah.  that sucks.  sorry to hear that.  good luck in the job hunt.  Probably won't make it to the shindig, cheryl's still not feeling 100% and is taking it easy.
+
 
+
'''GABE:''' So what is the exact date of the shindig?
+
Also dude, what the fuck?  That place sounded pretty cool, but man, that really sucks!  I'm sure Symetra is still hiring... although there is a reason for that...
+
 
+
JASON: It is on 8/31 from 12 to whenever.  Sorry you cant come Ed, give Cheryl our best wishes.  Well, many things about the job were great, and many sucked.  I can look at what Symetra is hiring for, but I dont want to do sales.  Though it would be cool to work in the same building!
+
 
+
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 10:35, 28 August 2008 (MST) free cheese and curds.  that is a loss to be mourned. 
+
 
+
'''GABE:''' We don't do as much selling stuff, mostly checking through papers, shit like that.  Its a total paper pusher job for the most part.  Really I have no inside info.  31st eh, so Sunday?  Yeah I think I can do that.  I'll email you to get instructions, and I'll bring foodies.
+
 
+
--[[User:Dieterthebold|Dieter the Bold]] 01:29, 29 August 2008 (MST) I will definitely attend, but later. I'm afraid PAX again is going to draw me for the first to mid half of the day. After which I will be happy to attend. If someone wants to pick up some food on my behalf I will happily repay them, as going back home to whip something up or wandering to the nearest supermarket and then dragging it all the way on the bus would be less than enjoyable or efficient.
+
 
+
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 02:41, 31 August 2008 (MST) Fuuuck, so Noelle works this Sunday 'till around 7:30-ish.  How late do you think this thing would be going?  (grumble)
+
 
+
JASON:  Hard to tell, but come over after.
+
 
+
'''GABE:''' Well clearly I didn't make it!  Noelle got off around 7:30 or so, so she wasn't home till around 7:40, so we ended up being "eh... its arleady 8...".
+

'''GABE:''' Dieter... CoV, feel free to play anytime, we get on about every other night, still trying to meet up with the other Matt in-game.
+

==Weekly [[Magic]] Whining/Complaining/Smack Talking==
+
 
+
 
+
JASON: So, I have a Lions Eye Diamond and it bothered me that this was the most expensive card in my collection (or at least very close).  Finally I looked up how to use it today (because I am too retarded to figure it out), and although its cool, I dont see how it is $22.50.  The valuation of magic cards is a very strange thing.
+
 
+
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 13:48, 30 August 2008 (MST)so what's the trick, is it for Madness cards?
+
 
+
JASON: Madness works. Also you can use it in response to stuff (since its a mana ability it doesnt go on the stack, however).  For instance, I cast Demonic Tutor then sacrifice my Lions Eye for 3 red mana to cast the card I will grab (Wheel of Fortune, for instance).  Another good one is Braingeyser.  In any case, use any of the tutors to grab something, and sacrifice the Lions Eye to cast them.  Thats just one use, but the others involved cards I didnt know.
+
 
+
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 13:54, 1 September 2008 (MST) reading [http://www.starcitygames.com/pages/judgefinder.php?keywords=Garruk+Wildspeaker planeswalker rulings]. 
+
 
+
This is awesome: [http://sales.starcitygames.com/cardsearch.php?singlesearch=Mycosynth%20Lattice Mycosynth Lattice], [http://sales.starcitygames.com/cardsearch.php?singlesearch=March%20of%20the%20Machines March of the Machines], [http://sales.starcitygames.com/cardsearch.php?singlesearch=Experiment%20Kraj Experiment Kraj] plus any planeswalker.  Turns the planeswalker into an artifact, then an artifact creature, then Kraj puts a +1/+1 counter on the planeswalker artifact creature and gains its activated abilities.  Howerver, Kraj is not a planeswalker, so he can use the abilities as much as he wants.  Attack with infinite 99/99 beast tokens with trample.  game over.
+
 
+
also, but less interesting: <br>
+
Damaging a planeswalker with a spell is a redirect effect for ''damage''; this means you cannot target a planeswalker with ''loss of life'' spells. 
+
 
+
You cannot redirect damage you do to yourself to a planeswalker (ie can't use planeswalker to soak your 3 damage from [http://sales.starcitygames.com//carddisplay.php?product=46093 orcish artillery]).
+
 
+
Loyalty on a planeswalker is "This permanent comes into play with a number of loyalty counters on it equal to its printed loyalty number" (from the official rules).  Thus loyalty is counters, thus [http://sales.starcitygames.com//carddisplay.php?product=42363 Clockspinning] should work on them.  see [http://www.starcitygames.com/pages/judgefinder.php?keywords=Clockspinning second ruling].
+
 
+
BEN: or, better than clockspinning, try gilder bairn.
+
 
+
--[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 21:38, 2 September 2008 (MST) Hmmmm.  So far [http://www.wizards.com/magic/tcg/article.aspx?x=mtg/tcg/shardsofalara/spoiler Shards of Alara] looks kinda cool.
+
 
+
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 22:22, 2 September 2008 (MST) What the fuck...  I.... whatever!  Great more planeswalkers... which I still don't understand because I thought the player WAS a planeswalker...
+
 
+
--[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 00:35, 3 September 2008 (MST) Sure, you are a planeswalker, but that doesn't mean you can't make another planeswalker your bitch.
+
 
+
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]]  That one card that does 3 damage and makes the oppent discard 2 cards... crazyness, seems tri-color is gonna be the new way to go.  Also that 3/4 lifelink RHINO MONK is nasty... Rhino Monk...  Running a bit thin on ideas?
+
 
+
BEN: of course there will be new planeswalkers: apparently according to a design article they are relatively easy for players to understand (I agree) and it adds a new dimension to their game, AND it's "mythic rare" fodder (new rarity 'level' they are introducing).  I think overall this set is looking much more like bread and butter magic: no fancy new rules, just lots of tri-color and interesting combinations of powers we all know pretty well.  I personally really like the "kiss of the amesha" and the "stoic angel" cards...but then again, who couldn't have guessed that I'd be all up in white-green's bidness?
+
 
+
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] -- I just find it hard to understand storywise...  B'ah I still say!  I hope there is Rhino sinergy.
+
 
+
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 11:35, 3 September 2008 (MST) Hellkite overlord, an 8/8 with flying trample and regenerate is nasty, but add in haste!  fuck.  at least it costs 8 mana of three colors to cast.  my "i hate new mechanic" buzzer actually does not go off on the planeswalkers.  they are powerful, but don't break prior game mechanics like wither did to regenerate.
+
 
+
== Next step in [[Super Heroes]] ==
+
 
+
What's the role of super hero?  Is it to protect the innocent?  Punish the guilty?  Keep a captured villain in a closet and occasionally throw him some Sun Chips?
+
 
+
The Guardians are thinking long and hard about this moral conundrum...
+
 
+
'''GABE:''' That was super heroes at their bestest.  How about what the heck do we do with all these people we keep beating up???  No place can hold them!  I mean Viho only has so many closets.
+
 
+
== Next step in [[Of Amor, Armor, and Alchemy]] ==
+
 
+
BEN:  last session was excellent.  Props for:
+
1.) Ed and Gabe RPing out Aefra being unable to figure out which potion was the strength potion.  <br>
+
2.) Being smart about the fight at the crone's hut and coming away with a solid victory (just as a poll: how difficult would you guys have rated that fight: easy or intermediate?)<br>
+
3.) Brandon trusting his instincts over his dice rolls and burning an xp to find out the high attendant is, in fact, untrustworthy.  Besides being character appropriate and beneficial to the group in the metagame sense, it also contributes nicely to the story.  This third item nets the group (as in, each character separately) ONE BONUS XP.  Gratz, don't spend it all in one place.
+
 
+
--[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 17:20, 3 September 2008 (MST) Sweet!  Well done all.  My only plans this upcoming session were to: 1) Meet up with Aetan pronto to tell him what's going on (i.e., that we have 3 options for chasin' the cure), 2) to try to find Lyra to make sure no one actually gets Daenerys out of the fire before we come back with a cure.  At the very least, I want to do (2) before we leave the island (which I am assuming we will be doing before too long).  Have fun.  Kill me a dragon or something!
+
 
+
'''BEn''': I think she gave you 4 possibilities, although 2 are pretty similar...and of course, those are only the ones she knows about...
+
 
+
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 23:04, 3 September 2008 (MST) Dragon, best bet hands down.
+
 
+
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 08:37, 4 September 2008 (MST) Aefra's first priority is to see that Daenerys is safe, we may be gone for a long time.  and with the high priest not trustworthy, maybe the poisoner, it seems we best take care of that before leaving.  it may be a long trip and we don't want to give the baddies several months to work out how to finish the job.
+
 
+
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] -- Also what about the people assigned to find a cure? A Stone Elf who seems like she will do any job for the right money, a noble who was kicked out of his home because he fought too much... and a dirty Blood Elf pirate... you know, the guys who stormed her village to start with? I'm pretty sure they won't find a way to get in there. I'm also fairly sure they will find a cure before us (they are after all clearly more experienced and powerful then us).

Latest revision as of 17:20, 15 January 2017

This page is for discussion of stuff related to the game coming up this week, no matter when that actually is. For instance, we can all assume Nate isnt coming for some lame reason and that Ed is sick of pizza and is bringing teriyaki or some other crap. They can post something here if that happens to be untrue.
