BEN: if there's interest, we could play some more magic at my place tomorrow (sunday) evening, or board games.  Just let me know if there's interest.
 
 
--[[User:Jason|Jason]] 20:07, 10 November 2007 (MST)Depending on time I might be in to this.  I am roleplaying at 2 probably until 6 or so, maybe a little longer.  I just got Fortress America and Shogun I would like to try.
 
 
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 09:51, 12 November 2007 (MST) did your other new gaming group get off the ground, Jason?  what kind of setting are you guys doing? 
 
 
My brother in law is coming up for a week around christmas, he loves war games.  if you're around we should play that Fortres America game.
 
 
--[[User:76.164.21.217|76.164.21.217]] 10:43, 12 November 2007 (MST)We just started yesterday.  We are playing post apocalypse.  I use mostly the same world, and in fact I keep some events that happened in our game.  There are some slight changes, but mostly it doesnt matter because they went to places you guys never did starting on the first session.
 
 
I would like to play Fortress America, its for 2-5 players.  One guy is the USA who plays against everyone else, but in the end only one attacker can win if the US doesnt.
 
 
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]]--  Man magic was a lotta fun!  Sorry my decks cleaned up so badly, OH!  Haha, no, that was a lot of fun and we gotta play again!
 
 
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 12:06, 12 November 2007 (MST)absolutely.  others interested in continuing a 6pm-7pm magic pregame?  Since we're getting into it, i might buy one of those 700 card commons lots for shits and giggles.  also enjoyed heroscape and had some ideas for new combos
 
 
--[[User:Jason|Jason]] 13:07, 12 November 2007 (MST)I dont mind leaving my magic cards there for you guys to use, I would just ask that you dont take the decks apart and that if you use the more expensive cards that you be careful.  I can go over this on Friday when I get there.
 
 
BEN: yeah, the general view is that we will be keeping everybody's collections separate: I think it makes sense.  Your decks will provide some more options for those that want to use premade decks, though, and that would be excellent.
 
 
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 15:05, 12 November 2007 (MST) I will be taking apart many of my decks to free up some cards.  I'm sure Jason has a b-load of cards for us to make more decks as well, which would be awesome.
 
 
BEN: there's a dealy on craigslist right now for 5k cards for 90 dollars, including rares/uncommons.  Guess we could all pitch in...
 
 
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 16:12, 12 November 2007 (MST)I saw that too.  was thinking about it.  also was thinking about the lots on ebay, but i suspect they only contain lame rares and lots of commons.  I'd be down to pitch in for the 5000 cards.  we could split it and make a gaming group stock or divy it up between whomever chips in to add to their respective stocks.  I don't know how long that will last, but i don't have time to go get them until wednesday.  if one of y'all wants to get em, I'll pitch in for whatever percent.
 
 
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]]-- Man, that is an assload o'cards.  I'm guessing they are a lot of the older editions (like 4th, 5th, etc.).  I actually found out the other day, cause I bought a card holder that holds 2000 cards, that is about how many cards I have not counting lands.
 
 
Oh, and lets try to not play while we game!
 
 
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 16:36, 12 November 2007 (MST) yeah, we already said that.  no magic games during rpg.
 
 
--[[User:Dieterthebold|Dieter the Bold]] 18:22, 12 November 2007 (MST) I'm down for kicking a couple bucks into the big card purchase.
 
 
--[[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] 22:39, 12 November 2007 (MST) anybody got time to jaunt down to tacoma?
 
 
--[[User:Gdaze|Gdaze]]-- I'd be down for getting in on these cards too.  So like, are we gonna spilt them up?  I don't care what cards I get (not all lands), just long as I get some, but yeah, count me in.
 
 
Also, we should make sure these are English cards.  I have no need for Chinese cards!
 
 
   
 
   
 
BEN: EDIT: well, the guy with the cards emailed me back, so I'll hopefully be able to pick them up.  I guess we'll just split them up, although this is predicated on everyone pitching in equally: if people want to "give what they can" then I think it will be simplest just to maintain them as a general pool.  If we split them up, I think rares and uncommons should  be distributed randomly, and anyone can have any commons they want on a first come, first served basis (with the understanding that you won't take more than 4 of any given card).  Those are my 2 cents anyways.  The collection costs $90.00, so if Gabe, Ed, Dieter, and I all pitch in, that would be 22.50 each.  If Matt and/or brandon wants to pitch in, the cost would come down (obviously).

Revision as of 11:14, 14 November 2007

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.

Gabe, can we find some time to discuss this? If not, would you guys mind doing a historical prelude that does not have anything to do with the characters but does help with the setting?

Gabe: Crap I never notice updates sometimes... Um, yeah, I'm gonna be hitting the hey when I get home tonight but later I could. Or shoot me an email, I can check that at work, go ahead and use the badass_sanosuke one please.

GABE: -- Jason, I haven't seen any email yet although you may be unable to do so from work, let me know if you can't email today during work. ACTUALLY I don't mind talking over the story role of my guy right here unless you rather not.

Attendance and Food preference

11/16/07

--Dieter the Bold 18:21, 12 November 2007 (MST) So, are we doing a historical prequel or something this Friday? I'm down for whatever.

--Edmiao 22:39, 12 November 2007 (MST)I would prefer a real prequil. let's get this ball rollin!

--76.164.21.217 12:23, 13 November 2007 (MST)The problem is Gabe's character doesnt have a strong story role (as previously discussed). So unless one can be determined in the next day or so we will be doing something historical.

Gabe: Can I just be given a story role? Maybe thats even what we RP out?

--Edmiao 13:07, 13 November 2007 (MST)does his prequil have to be an integral part of the story? can we just rp out his backstory a bit? have him meet some of the other characters, maybe?

--76.164.21.217 15:55, 13 November 2007 (MST)What would be the point of that? What would the plot be? What could happen? It would just be the players talking to each other. Nothing could happen that affects the outside world at all or influences the characters. If you guys all want to be high school students sitting around at Gabe's high school that would be ok, yet, how could there be an interesting plotline?

BEN: I'm fine with whatever: we're starting in two weeks, so whether we do a prequil or not isn't that important to me. Also, Jason: if you want to remake my character, feel free: I'm happy to play whatever fits the guardian role best, I'm really not that invested in the character sheet I have. I know how I want to play the character, so the stats will just determine how exactly I fulfill that role.

--Edmiao 16:42, 13 November 2007 (MST) Jason, if you had ended with a Gabe's mom crack, i might think that was all a joke, but there was none so I'm not quite sure how to take it. My suggestion was that prequils having characters interact could be good for group unity and provide a better hook to stay together than "so, I hear you need a midget super scientist...." But whatever y'all cook up for friday is fine by me.

Ranting and raving or other random comments

GABE: Ed, could you repost that link to the Mircosoft thingy?

Other Non-RPG gaming Events

BEN: EDIT: well, the guy with the cards emailed me back, so I'll hopefully be able to pick them up. I guess we'll just split them up, although this is predicated on everyone pitching in equally: if people want to "give what they can" then I think it will be simplest just to maintain them as a general pool. If we split them up, I think rares and uncommons should be distributed randomly, and anyone can have any commons they want on a first come, first served basis (with the understanding that you won't take more than 4 of any given card). Those are my 2 cents anyways. The collection costs $90.00, so if Gabe, Ed, Dieter, and I all pitch in, that would be 22.50 each. If Matt and/or brandon wants to pitch in, the cost would come down (obviously).

--Gdaze-- So I got my shipment of magic cards the other day, almost all are from the 2 sets that are all about "techie" cards, like artifacts. Some of these artifacts are great, even more so for multi-colored decks. Some nice ones I know off the top of my head but not their names...

Artifact, 3 casting cost, tap to add one mana of any color. (Yowza!)
Lots of little 2 or 3 mana casting cost artifact creatures that can add varios colored mana to your pool.
A white spell instant, I think a 3 casting cost total, that converts all damage done to you by one creature into life points.
A green INSTANT that costs two green mana and adds 6 life to yourself.

Haha, wow Ben, I had just deleted all this stuff, lucky not until you posted that! Yeah I'm down, I would even be fore giving out the commons randomly, you can make good decks with the most basic of cards. Count me in. I mean with 5000 fucking cards we there is no way we will be unable to not take more then four of a certain card haha. I am for the we all pitch in equally, makes things easier.

ALSO, BEN, these cards are all in English, correct?
