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.

Attendance and Food Preference

3/06/09

Edmiao present, no pizza.

Matts Present. Are we playing OAAA?

--Dieter the Bold 12:45, 2 March 2009 (MST) Present, pizza please.

Edmiao that is up to the GMs. i had thought so based on the end of last session and so made the edit above, but maybe that was a misconception. Your mom has a lot of misconceptions, she should get her tubes tied.

--Matts 12:43, 3 March 2009 (MST)Ok, OAAA it is!

BEN: I probably won't be home till 6:30 because watchmen is fucking 2hrs. 40 minutes, so even the 3:15pm start time will still get me out just after 6 counting previews. I'll hustle back, but it's at southcenter. We'll start with the gaming as soon as I get in and save magic for the end, to give us the most time to wrap up the Castle Crashing and possibly move on to the Final Climactic Encounter.

--Brandon 16:49, 4 March 2009 (MST) Present. Pizza FTW.

Edmiao wiki fuckin blocka. that's a long movie. I've spent a fair 'mount o time sitting on those bricks. i think i'll give you a call around 6:20 and check on your ETA. so leave your phone on Dr. Buelow.

Dr. Buelow: No problem, Dr. Dr. Miao. I think that is how we should refer to each other from now on at gaming. Put these fucking plebs in their place.

--Brandon 17:31, 4 March 2009 (MST) If that's the way you want to roll, you're all going to have to start calling me 'Master,' which I'll take over 'Doctor' any day. The only one who won't have to go through any adjustment process will be Gabe, since he's been referring to me that we for years, albeit in private. (FYI, his safe word is 'heroclix'.)

--Matts 10:22, 5 March 2009 (MST)Hey I have a new title too! It's "Senior Game Developer, VGP", so if you could all refer to me that way that'd be greaaaat.

On another note, I'll be gone next week because of rina's best friend's birthday, so that means the Emir showdown will have to wait a week. Sorry guys.

Ranting and raving or other random comments

ED: got planet hulk from the library, fun read. hulk smash.

--Brandon 17:36, 3 March 2009 (MST) W00T on Ben's successful dissertation defense. It was under, like, major attack, and he totally defended those ion channels from ROS/RNS takeover. Or something.

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

3/06/09

--Dieter the Bold 14:01, 26 February 2009 (MST) Watchman, 3:15pm in the Southcenter IMAX (I just learned this from Jason last night). I've heard Ben is down.

Edmiao not sure if i will go. it's getting a 75% on RT, from a small number of reviewers. could be worse.

3/07/09

--Dieter the Bold 14:01, 26 February 2009 (MST) Rollerderby bout at Key Arena. I've never been and would like to go. Anyone interested?

GABE: Somewhat interested, will let you know by tomorrow.

Edmiao been wanting to go, but busy that day. i suggest you get tickets early, i hear they sell out.

GABE: Dieter, Noelle and I ARE interested in going, did you already pick up tickets?

--Dieter the Bold 12:47, 2 March 2009 (MST) I have not picked tickets up. I'll try and see if I can get Brennan or Justin interested and go from there.

--Dieter the Bold 13:14, 3 March 2009 (MST) So, tickets are a ricockulous $25 ($5 "service charge" and $1 "facilities fee"). Frakking Ticketmaster. I'm looking to see if I can buy tickets directly at the box office or some other way. This is highway robbery.

GABE: Wow... yeah, I don't think we want to see them "THAT" bad... Think I might rather see a movie or something... thats like four or five packs of magic cards! Or box set of Runebound with an expansion deck!

ED: We are in for this. Cheryl will buy the tix in person on friday for us and deiter. any others intrested post or call me before friday. should be $19 plus tax i presume.

3/8/09

JASON: I want to do this, and so does Rumi, but we have been going nonstop for the past 3 weeks, we need a little time off. Soon though, lets make this happen.

Edmiao okey dokey. i think i need to get some work done anyway. so i'm gonna bail on myself as well.

3/15/09, sunday

Edmiao cheryl and I are gonna see Watchmen at imax this second sunday. all invited.

Next step in Of Amor, Armor, and Alchemy

Current OAAAA XP: 75 base + 184 XP

GABE: Are there still active point limitations on spells/potions?

Edmiao wasn't it 10 active points per session? if so, then 184xp/15xp per session = 12 sessions thus 120 active point powers permitted.

GABE: Huh... that isn't very much, and I thought that was 10 active points for magic weapons, as in we can invest that much in the weapon each time. Powers too?

Edmiao not sure about the formula above. i never paid much attention to the limits since my powers are so far under the limits.

BEN: 10 points is for powers, generally...some higher cost stuff will be approved and some lower cost Stuff won't. Equipment ,s 5 poirts per session and is NOT retroactive

GABE: I would like to request this limit be taken off for powers. At the current power level, having this limit means I need to spend points where I don't want or need them. I realize characters will become really powerful (already are really) but I dunno, just some ideas. Or maybe make it 15 or 20 points? If not though, thats fine too.

Nevermind, saw that some stuff will be approved, thats cool then.
