--[[User:Dieterthebold|Dieter the Bold]] 11:46, 4 September 2008 (MST) Alright lads. We're gamers, so we're lazy by definition. I am lazier than most. But Halloween is a holiday I always feel bad about for not coming up with an awesome costume. I hereby forward the motion that we make that session a costumed session. Two months to come up with something awesome and wear it to the session. Bonus points to be awarded for those who come as their characters.

--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 11:00, 5 September 2008 (MST) I'm pretty sure I will be busy on said day. If I'm not, I will come in costume... but one it is over 2 months away so I have no idea, and two, yeah, typically I got out on that holiday.
+
== Magic Talk ==  
  
BEN: as far as halloween goes, and as long as we've opened the can of worms that is switching sessions from friday to saturday or vice versa, the 31st of october may be an ideal candidate for saturday, as opposed to friday, gaming.  Either way, I still think people should come dressed as their characters.
 
  
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 14:24, 8 September 2008 (MST) Definitely will be gone if Friday 10/31, might be able to make Saturday 11/1 but won't be able to tell you until the day of.

--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 10:54, 22 September 2008 (MST) Quick question for Matt who to whom else might know...  I'm trying to see if I can run my 360 in Japan, but I'm a little worred about it getting fried.  Anyway know like what will and wont' work there?  Or any links to sites that explain it?  I can't find nuttin'!
+
'''Best Trek Movies:'''<br>
  
BEN: the socket voltage in Japan is 100 volts.  in the US it is 110, I think.  If you look on the power converter for the XBOX, it should say what voltages it accepts.  The plug type looks like it is the same as the US, but if the XBOX can't run on 100 volts, you will need to get a step-up converter.

--[[User:Matts|Matts]] 11:25, 22 September 2008 (MST)I am certain that at most you'll need a new power brick, but I imagine not.  They sell xboxes in japan, and the reason that the big brick comes with your 360 is so that they don't have to manufacture different machines for different voltages.
+
--[[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.
 
+
My power brick for my devkit here at work takes between 100 and 127 volts.  So I think you'll be fine.
+
 
+
Most consumer electronics are too expensive to manufacture with different processes, so they externalize the transformer.  Once you've done that, making it large enough to accept several incoming voltages is pretty cheap.  So I think a PS3, a 360, and probably recent dvd players or tvs would all work fine in Japan.
+
 
+
JASON: I think the external power brick will be necessary.  I know a laptop is not an XBox, but they are modern electronics, and when Kurt went to Europe I had to purchase a new set of plugs for his macbook.  They made an international traveler version that had a customizable plug for any country with instructions.
+
 
+
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 12:50, 22 September 2008 (MST) Thanks all, I have little to no exp plugging stuff in over seas... wait a second...  ahem.
+
 
+
I'll take a look at the box when I get home then.  And if I do get this job in Japan I'm also gonna need a labtop.  I'm also asking about this because someone I know Wii was fryed when they tried to use a conventer in Italy.  So yeah... don't wanna be loosing my systems.

JASON: Anybody up for a game of Battletech sometime in the next few weeks?  I will need to try it out to see how feasible this mechwarrior thing is.  Its only been about 18 years since I have played it!

--[[User:Dieterthebold|Dieter the Bold]] 17:41, 16 September 2008 (MST) Definitely down. I have a few boxes and books I can bring if necessary.

[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] I wonder if the suveilance cameras caught cortez and the battle on tape, could be good PR sort of the Guardians most wanted list.
+
 
+
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]] 02:29, 21 September 2008 (MST) Yeah... except then we went to the park and fought the mutant kid... had to knock out a bunch of teens with Ash Berry's spores... and um... he got away...
+
 
+
--[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 12:37, 21 September 2008 (MST) I just want to say that that last battle had a lot of great moments.  Silver Snake being thrown into the air and then transforming and swinging back down in mid air; Ashbury flying above the crowd of teenagers and releasing pollen everywhere; Elemental taunting Zeus, and then not budging when the counterattack came; Brimstone walking with Silver Snake as armor, dragging a line of fire through the air, and then teleporting inside of Zeus's shield.  Good times, all.

--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 10:28, 6 September 2008 (MST) so, the way i see it, all the blood elf pirates abandoned ship, leaving us on the ship. dragon likes to eat blood elves.  let dragon eat blood elves, we keep ship.
+
 
+
'''GABE:''' Agreed.
+
 
+
Also... about the dragon, here are some deals I thought of.
+
 
+
What about if we offer him the Ruby Shield Ignus?  You know, the one thing that can stop his breath, and we give it to him?  Also another deal we could make, since he looks phat lootz, is find out who is shipping what and from time to time give him that info?  I know its awhile till we play but just some things I thought up.
+
 
+
 
+
BEN: in response to Ed's concern above I will say this: there won't be a whole lot of "meeting" going on during this first encounter with the dragon.  Very likely none, barring spectacular miracles and/or cleverness.<br>
+
Allow me to try to elaborate (on a metagame level, since none of the PCs likely have much dragon knowledge): Dragons are both brutal animalistic predators and wise and cunning sentient beings.  When they are in the "predator" mode, they are almost exclusively instinct-driven monsters, attacking with total ferocity.  In short, this is not a mode in which it would be easy to bargain with or even communicate with a dragon.  Surviving such an attack is a rare and great feat in itself.<br>
+
Also, as I alluded to before, the next session will start, at the very outset, with a presence attack against everyone on the ship on the order of 14-16d6.  That means that anyone with a presence lower than 21 will be in a state of total, abject terror (barring special effects or miracles) and only concerned with getting as far away from the dragon as fast as possible, or just wetting themselves and waiting to get eaten (we will assume the former as default for the PCs). Actions in line with psychological disadvantages, or actions relating to your auspice bond may be taken as long as they don't interfere with the above: if they do, PRE rolls with penalties will be involved.  Other actions will come at high costs, either in terms of stat rolls (likely PRE) or XP expenditure.<br>
+
If you have questions about this start up of the next session, feel free to ask.
