Current events
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.

Microsoft Playtest
BEN: I'm doing one of those usability tests that Ed told us about...and I'm supposed to bring 3-7 friends next thursday, the 20th. The thing starts between 6:30 and 7, and I'm not sure how long it will run, but any/all of you are welcome to come along and/or bring friends of your own, until the seven slots are filled.
ED: how did that go?
BEN: next thursday, the 20th
Weekly Magic Whining/Complaining/Smack Talking
--Edmiao Magic Workstation. this link has a link to the download page and another link to a walkthrough. you have to download the magic workstation program and then download a card database.
BEN: man, Ed's discard deck is nasty. Dragon mage + haste + megrim = mucho paino. I was thinking that deck might be a good place for some of those 1 red mana chaos charms that give a creature haste as an instant...
ED: I had those in line for the deck, but didn't put them in. I think that should be revised, because haste on that puppy is really really really important.
BEN: absolutely. haste + megrim + Dragon Mage...that's that deck in a nutshell, and that's one hell of a combo. 19 damage if they have 7 cards in hand. it hurts just thinking about it.
funny, really, that my deck ended up being mostly direct damage as well...I never really thought of it that way, but it does sort of play out like that.
The Next Step in WHFRP Reboot
--Edmiao 16:32, 12 December 2007 (MST) Jason, Matt2, you guys joining WFRP? just curious. next episode will include fireworks.
GDAZE: OMG, I hope we end up blowing ourselves up and spending a fate point.
--Edmiao 16:42, 12 December 2007 (MST) my plan is to spend my one fate point to let me blow up the whole group. then they can all spend a fate point to survive the blast. wait, then i have no fate points left to save my own character. ah well, it will be a fitting end.
--Gdaze -- I would hope Matt wouldn't let us burn fate points like that heh heh, I think we already learned what happens when players have that much control! What our are characters even trying to do in WHF anyway? Shouldn't we hunt down that ass who stole all our moneyz?
The Next Step in Exemplars
--Walt Jonse 15:58, 11 December 2007 (MST) I would like to know what you would like to do in the game this coming session. This will help me prepare a few things etc.
Ed: topics for investigation: the world freedom alliance, the identity and allegance of XI, the intentions of Mr. Immortal. Viho will go to the WFA ball to these ends.
Gabe: Oh, who is Mr. Immortal? Like we met him? And did my guy get to talk to Dieter's guy yet? If not that will be for sure on my to do list. Otherwise pretty much the same reasons. Also I want to know who funded our good professor's research, see if any have ties with the Freedom Alliance.
--Edmiao 14:11, 12 December 2007 (MST)someone should write a recap for you. After much cajoling, Viho did convince Geoffry to spend a little time at venture industries, but hub was not around.
Also for GMs, I think Viho had some lines of investigation ongoing. Aimee (the computor programer at Venture Ind.) was going to try to hack into the warehouse computers to see what kind of malicious software may be present, or if there was evidence of naer'do'welling. Viho himself was researching scientists/inventors who might be capable of making XIs holographic projector (if that's what it was) as well as refreshing his knowledge of Verson Getorix (who would be included amongst the greatest inventors ever).
--76.164.21.217 14:22, 12 December 2007 (MST)This is all noted. I had meant to go over stuff with Matt Monday, but things did not work out. We have that tentatively scheduled for Thursday. Look for answers on those things that evening.
--76.164.21.217 14:29, 12 December 2007 (MST)One more thing. Matt and I discussed this and considering the excellent portrayal of the Highwayman by Brandon, the Dandy One will not be returning as an NPC, he will only be present when Brandon can play him.
--Gdaze-- Hey quick question for Jason and Matt nibon. I was hoping you could forward me Matt's email Jason, like to my hotmail account. That is the one I will primarly use from now on. I'd like to dicuss some of my guy's powers and how I should be able to expect to use them. Although I'm weak in combat my powers can be serously powerful in info gathering and tracking people down.
--76.164.21.217 17:11, 12 December 2007 (MST)Sent. I suggest we go over some of the stuff in the mentallist book, like mental martial arts, for instance.
