Meatrace, first off, apology. You are quite correct, I did completely and utterly misread what you said and imputed malicious actionns on your part into the text that weren't there. I'm sorry I got your argument so wrong that my response was but releveant, especially as that annoyed you. Wasn't my intention and I f&&@ed up.
Now, to make sure I understand your argument correctly this time, are you saying there are no circumstances when people can complain about being offended? Or is it just people you are not talking to who shouldn't complain?
The former I disagree with completely, the latter, not so much. If you're clearly audible from 30ft away, though, it is kind of hard to argue you're having a private conversation. If nothing else, she could have legitimately asked you to keep the noise down. If you're making that much noise and swearing, yeah, people can complain about your language. You're inflicting it on them, after all. Seriously, 30ft is a hell of a way for hushed conversation to travel, even in a quiet place. Same way if you are in conversation, as Hama said he was earlier, and you playfully insult your friend with racist/homophobic/whatever language, someone else in the conversation could legitiamately ask you to stop as that's racist/homophobic/whatever. You do not necessarily have to do anything about it, but they can tell you you're being offensive.
Going up to random strangers having a converasation and then interrupting if they're just talking normally is an incredibly rude and dickish thing to do. I think we agree on that one. They have the right to be rude and dickish, of course, but as mentioned earlier, they don't have the right not to be treated as such for their actions.
EDIT: To be sure, if she's screaming and shouting at you for it, then yeah, she's behaving as a crumpet. But if someone comes up and says, not shouts, they can hear you from across the room and what you're saying is offensive, maybe at least moderate the volume?

Because people don't think of THEMSELVES as crumpets. Being a crumpet is something only other people do. Since they (in their own minds) are not a crumpet and you are yelling at them as if they were, that makes you the crumpet.
Quote: Why are you trying to censor my free speech, instead? because you're a crumpet. See how you disagree with me? :_
I agree. People don't think of themselves as crumpets which means the person they're being a crumpet to must be the one at fault. And yes, I'm guilty of this myself. Everyone is a crumpet at some point in their lives. However, I'm just pointing out your lack of awareness of being a crumpet does not mean you are not, in fact, being a crumpet. And if you have the right to be a crumpet, I have the right to be one right back by poiunting it out. It might not be productive but we're not arguing about effectiveness but that the right to free speech both includes the right to be a total and utter crumpet, and the right to point it out and ask you to stop.

Why are you trying to censor her free speech while vigourously defending your right to it? She has as much right to be offended as you have to drop f-bombs with your friends. Was she overreacting? Yeah, sure she was. I won't argue with you there. But she has the right to overreact, just like you have the right to swear like a sailor should you so wish. don't be so thin-skinned (TM).
What on earth made you think I'm trying to censor her free speech?
She was eavesdropping on a private conversation, intruded upon that private conversation, and tried to censor me.
Your argument might have some traction if I was speaking TO her, but I wasn't. If you're going to try to argue that censorship of someone else is itself free speech, you've argued yourself into a pretzel knot where black is white and up is down.
Please, make sense. You're telling her she can't say something that she wants to say. That's you censoring her free speech. It's not exactly a subtle or complicated point. Whether she should have been listening is another social matter entirely and you're quite free to ignore her because she shoudln't be eavesdropping, but you're saying she shouldn't be allowed to say anything to you about it. Where's your respect for her right to free speech? However, if she heard you whispering from 30 feet away? Maybe that whisper isn't as quiet as you think it is.
And would your argument be different if she was in a conversation with you? If you swear and she is offended and says so, would you still say she shouldn't be allowed to tell you that you've offended her? If so, what's the difference, regardless of your intent, she heard you and was offended. Maybe she should have kept her offence quiet. Maybe you shouldn't swear so much. Same free speech issue. If she shouldn't be offended by overhearing you swearing, you shouldn't get a wasp up your arse about her telling you she was offended, either.
EDIT: Her saying she's offended and you should stop is as much cenosrship as you saying she shouldn't be offended. In both cases, you're trying to control someone else's speech and emotional reactions.

So it's not just targetting the Tea Party. Which means the claim that the IRS is just doing this as a political move, maybe isn't true given, generally, Jewish groups are more likely to support Democrats, right?

Kingmaker can be if you run the kingdom in the background.
Curse of the Crimson Throne is good but there are quite a few grim elements (not as bad as RotL but 7 Days to the Grave is pretty grim).
Legacy of Fire is pretty easy to use if you like Arabian knights style tales, but you do have to skate over the culture of Katapesh at times.
I'd go with one of those three.
Note, all APs assume PG13, so you'll probably have to tone down some things in all of them.

There appears to be a cut and paste error from the Elven Archer in the table. Or at least I presume the Battle Scion doesn't suddenly get Precision +2d6 for no reason at 9th level.
Also Fighter Training isn't mentioned in the sumamry table and, from a personal point of view, I'd prefer Spell Tactician to be split up as it's abilities are quite distinct and don't really follow a progression. Plus it means lesss apparently dead levels on the table.
These are fairly trivial points, however. Spell Tactician question, though. When the archetypes replace the 11th level Spell Tactician ability, do they get that ability at 13th level rather than the noraml 13th level ability or do they just lose the 11th ability and get the normal 13th level ability at 13th level? Also, do they lose the increased bonus to Combat Casting?

Kthulu,
Well, I think Curse of the Crimson Throne would be altered quite substantially if you removed the homosexual elements. The betrayed lover angle is not insignificant in the final book, and it would change a lot to change the gender of one of the participants to remove that.

Geraint,
Leg press is a seated exercise where you press against a metal sheet with your feet and pulleys lift the weight. Obviously moving it three inches doesn't count as a full press, or even close, unleass you're a pixie.
Squat is traditional weightlifting bar acros sthe shoulders then, with back straight, lower yourself to a just below seated position, squatting, and raise. If you just dip down slghtly and don't go to the full squat, is usually a quarter squat and considered not to count as a proper squat.
And now you know, even if you didn't really want to.

Two more for the errata list.
Devenom has a range of "Close 925ft + 5ft/2levels)". The ( obviously got hit without the shift key.
Restore Minions is a Summoner 7 spell. I presume this is suppsoed to be 6 given Summoners don't get 7th level spells.

And how is mental health related to guns? Are you suggesting that people with mental health issues shouldn't be armed? Wouldn't that be an infringement of the 2nd amendment akin to backgroudn checks? And wouldn't it further stigmatise those with mental health issues as being all dangerous lunatics when that's far from the truth?

Hoplophobia,
So you're basic argument is that Americans are just more violent and bloodthirsty than the Swiss which is why your crime stats are so much worse, even though they also have guns. So it's not the guns that are the problem, it's that Americans have them. Ok, I can go along with that but I don't think it's helping your case that much.

They do, for exactly this reason. They also have to spend a significant portion of ime pre-op living as the new gender. I have a friend going through it and it's quite a strain for her.

The rules are you take the whole thing as not everything swaps out something of equal worth so you need to take the whole archetype to avoid really unbalancing combos. At least, that's the theory.

Every single number is equally likely when you roll %, so there's no curve.
A Curve occurs when some numbers are more likely than others. I suppose you could call a straight line a really flat curve if you wanted to mangle the language, but it is a uniform distribution, not a normal one and certainly not a bell curve.

Azaelas Fayth,
No it doesn't.
What is your chance of rolling 5 on a d%? 1%. What about 23? 1%. Every number from 1 to 100 has a 1% chance of being rolled. That is pure flat distribution. No question. It's only when you get 2d10 representing numbers between 2 and 20 rather than 1-100 do you get normal, if somewhat flat, distributions.

I would imagine so. The not showing up in mirrors was due to silver being used, and silver's supposed purifying properties. So unless androids have similar silver eyes they should be vsible just fine. On the other hand, it would be funny if you have an android PC.

Just imagine the effect of an Empress finding herself less than a slave in a system designed to oppress her. The depths of that fall from power to nothingness would produce despair that would be...exquisite. 100 years is nothing to a being whose plans span millennia. It might even be a worthwhile time period for the cosmic equivalent of a prank.

Did you just have an aneurism before posting this? I can barely comprehend it. I'll nonetheless endeavor to respond.
I have no idea what the comment is about London.
I enjoy being called those things, because there's nothing worse than being normal and boring. But I'm not saying we adopt the term "abomination" or "unnatural freak" as the official term for the LGBT community. Let them pick their own word.
I don't particularly like the term trans either. I didn't adopt that term. I'm happy to use something else. Suggestions?
And for the record, so am I. You edited it, but I'm still curious what a "highie" is. The London comment was to kryzbyn who I was originally replying to and forgot to delete.
The 'highie' was an attempt at humour referencing your high-blood pressure and using it to label you. In retrospect (i.e. five seconds thought) it was a stupid-arse thing to do, so I deleted it.
And yes, quite possibly that rant was a little incoherent. I just don't see how further labelling the out group and excluding them which is what calling people like us normal (which as I'm sure you'll admit is rather bizarre in itself) is not seen as a bad thing. The majority needs to be more careful of the minority for the same reason an elephanrt has to be more careful around a mouse than vice versa.

We could also call heterosexuality normal and probably get away with calling being white normal just about. I'm sure you can't see any problems with doing that. It certainly won't marginalise people with a history of being poorly treated and dicriminated againt, will it?

You're proving my point, Andrew. Anything short of perfect equality isn't good enough. AA is unfair. It is less unfair than not trying to sort out the problem of racial or sexual bias that has been shown to exist with CVs identical except for the name. You appear fine with people having to work twice as hard to be thought half as good. "Until we stop all of that, nothing should be done to address any of it." seems to be your view. Which does make one wonder how we can change it if no change but global revolution (cue Anklebiter) is enough. So yeah, you're in the same boat as the bigots who actually like that situation, even if you're not bigoted yourself. For practical purposes, you both want the same thing done about the problem: Absolutely nothing.

Icyshadow,
Because Andrew R is saying, as far as I can see, "I want true equality, therefore anything that helps those who have been disadvantaged for generations is bad because it's not equality." He's right, it isn't true equality. True equality is a goal. It also isn't going to happen in my lifetime barring a massive and radical trandformation in society that I can't see happening. Until it happens, Andrew R's view is, for pracittcal purposes, indistinguishable from "There's no problem." Neither one of them actually helps redress inequality. I accept that Andrew R is not saying there's no problem, but his proposed actions so far have all been consistent with "There's no problem" just from a different phisophical angle. It's making the perfect the enemy of the good. Are things like affirmative action crude and unfair? Yes. But given a demonstrated bias against people with non-English sounding names even with identical qualifications, what should we as a society do to address it?
meatrace,
Ok. You don't like being called cisgendered. What should non-trans people be called? If we're calling transgendered people "transgendered", we need to have something to call non-trans people rather than "normal".
Andrew R,
I think BNW is going for humour rather than being genuinely ashamed you agree with him,. However, persoanlly, if you or someone with views similar to your posted views agreed with me, I would reassess my position to make sure I was on firm ground.

I only read X-Factor (and currently Young Avengers. We'll see on that one. Liked and disliked parts so far althoguh loathed the ending of the Children's Crusade when it finally came out) from Marvel. My DC pull list is slightly larger but not exactly huge anymore. My problem with Marvel is the sheer number,and size of crossovers recently and some of the directiosn they've taken. It seems, and this may be my perception through not liking things rather than fact, that there's no such thing as a status quo anymore. The quo changes every 12-18 months with another 8 part multi-platform crossover so it never actually lasts long enough to get to be statused.
Of course this may just be because I'm nearing my forties and getting a lot mroe picky than younger me was, or the comics are still being written for people younger me's age and older me just doesn't understand them anymore. And you kids can get the &*$% off my %^&$ lawn.

I think everyone is overlooking the real reason to keep the fiction in the AP. Without it, James Sutter, as editor of the fiction line, might have (some) free time. There's a reason Paizo keeps expanding to the limits, or just beyond, of its staff's capacities for work. It's to make sure no one working there has the free time to really give vent to the horrors lurking in their minds. So keep the AP fiction and protect us all.

Suggestion for 'fixing' Snowball.
Reduce the damage. A lot. I'd suggest a single die (ranging from d3 to d6 depending on how nerfec you feel it should be) that doesn't scale with at most a +1/levels for five levels. After that it changes the spell from a "damage spell with a rider" to a "Stagger 1 target with a damage rider" which is probably more powerful and makes it step on the evoker's toes less.

Mech_E,
I would think this is a low priority for the Paizo staff. While it should be fairly simple to solve, they're almost certainly deluged with FAQ requests, as well as doing their day job of actually writing the rules books. This doesn't affect PFS as you can't craft in theat at all so GMs house ruling is a perfectly accetable result and, as you said, most GMs seem to have already gone down that route.
