Revision as of 15:31, 31 March 2009

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.

Attendance and Food Preference

ED: absent

Matts - I think that with Ben and Ed absent, we'll probably have to can it for Friday night.

--Gdaze 11:29, 30 March 2009 (MST) Yes, at least as far as supers goes. That was pretty intense, poor old Steven has no idea what to do.

That said, MATT, BRANDON, DIETER, I could put together a one shot, I have a lot on the plate right now, but would like if all 3 of you would be interested. Or if not, would anyone be interested in magic that night? Let me know! I think Brandon is outta town for like 3 weeks yes? Dieter? What about you?

I only say this because Friday nights are pretty much one of the few times I can get out.

--Dieter the Bold 15:19, 30 March 2009 (MST) What kind of one-shot you thinking? I'm going to the ECCC on Saturday, so I don't want to get too crazy too late. I'm leaning towards just staying home, but I could be persuaded if we got a happenin' group together.

--Gdaze -- Depending on, of course, if others want to... I guess that'd be up to the group, I have a bunch listed on my page, just just let me know. Warhammer RPG systems are easy and quick for character generation and such.

Guess its what you all 3 would feel, sci-fi or fantasy.

[[User::Matts|Matts]] - I'm probably leaning towards staying home as well, spend a friday night with the missus.

--Gdaze -- What are you people, agoraphobia (says the person with such disorder)? So is that a solid NO from yaz Matt?

--Brandon 16:51, 30 March 2009 (MST) What are you trying to say, Gabe? Do you want to take this outside?  ; )

I'm also going to be part of the lame crew, since I definitely cannot make it to do anything this Friday. I'm interested in getting together for Magic some other evening this week, though, if others are.

--Gdaze-- Hero Clix, Hero Clix! Ah mercy. Yus, I'm interested in some magic this week. Wed or Thursday works for me.

--Brandon 10:13, 31 March 2009 (MST) I'm interested in playing Magic on Wednesday, though I'd have to get cards from Ben and I know he's busy Wednesday night. I might be able to do Thursday also. Others?

--Gdaze-- Wait... isn't Ben in Cali right now? Is it possible to contact his roomy?

Quote(s) of the week

Elemental: (to police chief, who thanked them for their good work) That certainly isn't going to help Viho's colossal ego. (or something like that...)

CyberJesus: I'm so sick and tired of this bullshit Thomas Kinkaid police state!

Other RPG or Non-RPG or Monthly Board Gaming Day gaming Events

GABE:

Alright, so I'm going to throw this out there, not to cause a shit storm or anything. I see that later this year one of the current games may stop or whatever... not sure. All have a lot going on, but if everyone is okay with it I'd like to run the next game. BUT, I'd like to run a game everyone would like to play... DIETER. I know Brandon dropped due to time restrictions.

I'm just asking this now not to generate excitment or anything like that, but I'd like to know what to work on next. As in what kinda game people will actually get into. I dunno, am I outta line for asking this? Let me know.

Also whatever game we end up playing next I'd like to not use the hero system. Again just kinda seeing what kind-a games people might wanna play after one of the current ones end. Like Sci-Fi, whatever. Or if people think that hey, maybe I don't even want two games at a time, say that too. I'm just saying this because our player base has dropped so.

Weekly Magic Whining/Complaining/Smack Talking

ED: anyone use iGoolge? mtg backdrop

--Gdaze 11:31, 30 March 2009 (MST) +5 nerd points. Although that is cool.

Next step in Super Heroes

--67.170.22.232 01:23, 21 March 2009 (MST)Everyone gets 12xp!

Things that are going on:

the juice and his son are at large, not seen since they helped with the battle vs Emir

Emir abu kaliq is in prison, captured for putting a virus into wall street, taking stock brokers hostage, demanding ransom and killing one of them.

Oppenheimer, the radioactive power source corpse, is in an oceanic trench sealed in a concrete box. the feds want him back and they know we took him. we have been avoiding the feds.

The government was maybe using oppenheimer to make some weapon, they seem to need "quicksilver" ie silver serpent, to make this weapon.

The Artifecier (sp?) thinks the old ones are waking up. who is the artificer? who are the old ones?

The Explorators (SP???) work for the above named client and have brought back 3 ancient warriors, who are now at large.

Super Roids Factory Super roids factory was taken down, head scientist killed, links were found to Emir abu kaliq. got warrant for his office and found more incriminating evidence. this issue resolved..?

chat

--Gdaze 11:30, 30 March 2009 (MST) You know, I wish Robert had been given the kind of power given to my hero's character... I dunno what to do, redo character, or create life on the moon...

Next step in Of Amor, Armor, and Alchemy

Current OAAAA XP: 75 base + 215 XP

Plans to save Danny-Girl from the dragon

These are the ones i remember.....

Fight the dragon, kill it

Lyra told us where to find the freezing Tears of _____ so we can put out the dragon's breath, right before she extinguished the eternal forge flame in our temple (bitch) by sucking its soul out like a vampire. She will help us fight the dragon. In return we agreed to let her strike the killing blow IF we successfully obtain the Tears. Other allies could also be enlisted in the fight.

Swindle all around

Talk to Grundbad, get him to fight the dragon and kill it. Also, talk to Oryxis, pledge to deliver the ruby shield in return he frees Danny-girl. Dragon dies: Danny free. Grundbad dies, danny free. Win - Win.

Deal with the dragon

Give the dragon something he wants more than Danny. Say the Ruby shield or freeing Iximion.

Dragon vs Dragon

Free Iximion, tell him Oryxis is getting up in his magic shit and doens't he want to kick the shit out of Oryxix for learning magic?

BEN: that's...hmmm, I didn't think of that. That's a really good idea, actually. Oh, I'd also like to add: along with good insight in the last session, the bonus XP was due to Aefra's exceptionally commendable moral decision, to stay loyal to Grendel despite no perceived benefit. I tried ot make it as easy as possible to cast off from that, and I was very pleasantly surprised when Aefra did the heroic thing and said "FU, crotchety old bigot! BFFs 4 life!" So, a tip o' the XP hat to Aefra this past session.

Edmiao ha, groovey. seemed like the only choice she could make, actually, she's very loyal.

Yeah, gabe, they would have gotten their asses kicked by Lyra, but again, had to play the character. Calling in the guards seemed like the next best option to fight her without getting our asses kicked. it is much more interesting with her still at large, though. It occurs to me that the original plan was to have the flame put out to retrieve Danny-girl before administering the cure anyway, so folks must not have been too concerned about putting the flame out.....?

I like the Salazar's pet idea. foom!

GABE: Calling guards is a good idea, it makes it so we look good. And yeah, lets use the pet, bonus points Aten!

--Dieter the Bold 12:42, 19 March 2009 (MST) Nice idea, Aeten. And I vote we cut ties w/ Lyra. Not because Galen's super-pissed about the forge, but because I'm not sure we want to get involved with a very mercenary slayer who goes after the souls (XP) of powerful beings/things. I just don't think she's good peoples.

Edmiao If we cut ties with her, then we owe her some LOOTZ. what was the deal we made?

GABE: Um, she is no worse then me, and she sticks to her word, to the T. If we don't do it, we can't get the tears. Tears are very needed, with them I could perhaps make something to dose the dragon's breath. (Meta-game, we are still most likely going to loose some characters, but what a fight, with a dragon! Speaking entirly outta game, I wanna fight a dragon.)

Edmiao Metagame: haven't we wanted to fight a dragon from the get go? So, i think those characters with pride should suck it up and we should stay with the deal with Lyra, we need as much help as possible. She'll help us fight the dragon, and if she dies, cest la vie.
