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

7/31

ed. Present

--Dieter the Bold 11:24, 28 July 2009 (MST) Present

BEN: present. We can use my place. 6pm for magic?

Edmiao sweet. yes, should be there by 6pm. i think

--Gdaze 14:09, 28 July 2009 (MST) Well, I'm having dinner with my family that night, but afterwards I am free. We doing OAAAA or Mass Effect?

BEN: I assumed Mass Effect, but I can probably GM for a night if need be...might make more sense anyways if you will be very late.

--Gdaze 15:37, 28 July 2009 (MST) Yeah, either is fine by me. I've got stuff everyone can do, and the next location is pretty big, could take a lot of time to explore. That said, I should be there by 8, not too late.

--Brandon 09:14, 29 July 2009 (MST) I've got to work on a paper with Joe on Friday night, and I've convinced him to swing by to play some Magic with y'all beforehand. So, we'll be by at 6. You'll get to see a fair number of M10 cards in person, if you haven't already! I could probably arrange to get Pudge if folks are interested.

--Gdaze 09:28, 29 July 2009 (MST) Um so yeah, with how late I may be, OAAAAAAAAAAA might be better if that is okay?

BEN: yup, that is ok. see y'all at 6 on Friday.

--Dieter the Bold 12:49, 30 July 2009 (MST) Down with Pudge.

Ed. May not make magic at six. Oo that sounds vile. Be there at least by 8 start without me.

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!

Ashbury: I grow plants that may or may not be used for pharmaceutical purposes

Ed/Aefra: "I use Seduction on the baby"

"Galen, you're wearing a dress." "Yes, but I still look better in it than in you do in your clothes."

Ranting and Raving

JASON: Wiki Update: After the biggest infestation of spam yet, I have finally got this actually fixed. A fun lesson, when it says to edit the localsettings.php in the root directory, editing the one in the config directory doesnt help. Image uploads are next in the queue. Anyone else have feature requests?

--Matts 12:35, 27 July 2009 (MST)You're basically my hero.

Edmiao and mine. Images would be sweet.

--Gdaze 18:42, 27 July 2009 (MST) I will 3rd that! Images, eh, fine either way!

--Matts 20:22, 27 July 2009 (MST)Don't images already work? Did that picture of the girl kissing the other person get on the wiki by magic?

--Matts 20:38, 27 July 2009 (MST)The Juice. Easy as apple pie!

JASON: Yes, images were completed about an hour after that original post. Are there any other pieces of functionality that we need? Now that I am feeling like I can work this piece of software I might as well get as much done as possible. Rumi is gonna make us an image for the logo, feel free to put suggestions here.

Also, thanks to Ed (and the rest of you?) for donating towards hosting for the wiki. I appreciate it greatly.

Edmiao yes, the rest of them too. thanks for the images function!

--Dieter the Bold 15:57, 28 July 2009 (MST) More thanks for the valiant spam fighting efforts. Spam-Fighter Achievement unlocked! Also for the new features.

JASON: This just in. Its warm in the northwest, specifically Seattle.

Edmiao Wow, thanks for that. it's a good thing that global warming isn't real, cus otherwise it would be even hotter!

Mass Effect

Current Mass Effect XP: 1000 Starting + 1300 xp = 2300. (Current at end of 7/24)

Upon getting back to their office the crew went about the task of finding out more about the strange happenings. Krolm shot himself up with some more unknown fluids and went to the doctor hoping to have his blood looked it. First findings indicated it was an uknown substance that seemed to repair cells.

After speaking with Vor'Dar, he pointed out that he had a book that contain translations for this unkown langauge, taken from a recently found Prothean world. The world is ripe for pickings, and many looters are already fighting over it, hoping to get what they can before the corps move in.

Vor'Dar agreed to give them the book if they went and liberated, in any way, a Prothean entertainment device. The crew left and made short work of the would be looters. They will be washing out the inside of their ship for awhile.

Upon getting back, while Blackeye worked on the translations, and Fizzak on how to use a keyboard for the race, Krolm went and bought a dog, which he shot up with the fluids. The dog died a horrible death and Krolm then decided to cut it open. Renisha said that if it continued, they would have no other employees. Krolm then decided to test it on chickens, the chickens also died a horrible death, and were also cut up afterwards.

The book was finally translated and it has a map to something called a "Flower World".

On top of this, the doctor who Krolm went to, suddeny emailed him saying no further information on the fluids could be discovered. While Fizzak did a search on C-Sec for what happens if your caught carrying posion a "C-Sec" officer sent him a message, but Fizzak, being a master programer, and computer whiz, quickly realized this perosn was NOT a C-Sec officer. Fizzak played it cool, and didn't show the fake that he knew.

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

Next step in Of Amor, Armor, and Alchemy

Current OAAAA XP: 75 base + 322 XP; Followers: 9 XP (current as of 6/23/09)

Plans to save Danny-Girl from the dragon

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.

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?

ED: anything interesting happen last week?

--Gdaze 09:21, 23 June 2009 (MST) We raided the Forge's stash. Turns out the Prince took all the shiney stuff, which is actually the weaker stuff. I got a box. Matt got a sword, and we went into the old ways and had it forged by some old dwarf witch. My shadow self called out to my crow and killed it. Oh, there is now basically a pirate town on the island as well. We went to see the fairy king who was way more relaxed then before but still a dick. Matt met the new guard of the fairy bridge.

Oh, and there is a big political scuffle at the Forge (mostly due to our request). It isn't too bad right now though.

Edmiao i presume the above xp is correct, i must have missed a lot of sessions, got 45xp to spend. Any group requests for Aefra magic? anything that would help a lot in battle vs dragon. I'm thinking some power defense or mental defense to help vs mind control....do both apply to mind control or is it just mental defense?

Edmiao ben, aefra has 10PD, 8rPD, and one less of each ED. is that balanced or does that leave her vulnerable to rapid kill still?

BEN: I'm not sure I can answer that...it sounds pretty high for a caster (8 rPD is what full plate provides), but contextually your tanks have like 17. I wouldn't worry too much about insta kill (see my comment in the one shot discussion), I'm not really prone to offing PCs, especially in this game.

Ed. Not terribly worried. Just thinking that if a bad guy has to be able toget through 17pd they would knock her out in one hit. Thus the question, is she a balanced character with that level of defense? Could buy some csl for dodge, which would be appropriate.
