Lurking for a few.
Few. Very few.
:-P

Backish, but mobile.
Lurking a smidge at work.
I'm starting a week long business trip today returning Saturday. My posting will be irregular and opportunistic. Please bot me as necessary.
thanks
Lurking a wee bit at work.
off camping for the next few days. There's a slim chance I can get a combat post in in the AM. Otherwise I'll post again on Friday or over the weekend.
Thron, likewise for RotR.
Work lurking on Roll20
I figure this is a cinematic scene and we're not supposed to catch up to him before he gets on the airship, but didn't we have a few rounds of haste still going? Also, I've got a speed of 50 when I use my extra legs (not counting the +30 for haste). :-D
This scenario is fairly railroady I'm realizing. It doesn't give an exact time for the forcefield to be taken down in rounds, but it just says this is what happens basically. At worst you've arrived a few rounds behind him, it's not like you're a minute behind or something.
Stupid railroad plot not letting me use my mutations... boo
No no no, without your mutations we'd never have possibly caught up in time. (Clearly, otherwise we wouldn't have gotten there just after he took off.)
;-)
So, I'm not allowed to stow away and sabotage Hestram's ship because the scenario already has it built in that his ship slows down on its own. Heaven forbid the scenario actually let us do something heroic.
I'm not mad at you, Jelani, I just could really visualize me clinging to the side of the ship and using my webbing to mess with their wing flaps to slow them down. It would have been nicely cinematic.
Yeah, I don't really read these much ahead of time because I don't have the time. I'm kinda disappointed in this one. I like the John Carter of Mars/Barsoom theme but the constant railroading is kind of lame.
To all my games: I'm on vacation for the next week. I might be able to jump on for a quick post, but otherwise don't expect a lot out of me. You're free to bot me if I'm a player, or just banter and discuss things if I'm your GM.
I'm solo parent for the next couple days, and then hosting a summit for several teams from different offices at work...and then off to Alaska for two weeks!
All good stuff...but my posting will be (even more) scarce.
Just checked and this game has also been running since January 2014, more than that, we have the #33 most posts of any PBP on Paizo ever.
Well done guys, I appreciate the commitment.
Thanks for running such a fantastic game, Jelani!
Curious, where did you find that out? Since I'm in one other game that's up on this one by about 400 posts, but we've been going since 2012. I wonder how that one ranks.
Just defocus your threads, go to play by post forum, and then sort by number of posts and count.
I'm also in the #3 game, 21,000+ posts (o_O)
Huh. Never realized you could do that.
Just FYI starting Saturday morning, I will be out of town and without a PC until Wednesday the 25th, don't expect any posts from me till then.
Yep! Whatever you changed works. Thanks!
Hey gang, I'll be travelling until Aug 26. I should still be posting (possibly even more frequently) but I expect there to be gaps. Please feel free to bot me if needed.
Sorry, travel's been way crazier than I'd expected. I'll be able to post tonight or tomorrow AM.
Lurking on Roll20.
Stalwart & I are lurking / chatting on R20, btw. All welcome!
Had planned to post this evening after work, but got bushwhacked with family drama immediately after work (literally hadn't even walked to my car yet). I'm too stressed to focus properly right now. Permission granted to Bot my character for this round.
Apologies.
Hope you're alright, bro. No worries.
I wanted to apologize for my recent slow in posting here. I have had a lot of things going down in life that has prevented me from being able to readily access rules material to put up my usually more prompt posts that are actually related to actions or game updates.
A) Applied for a job as a clinical manager in the hospital, and was doing multiple interviews and prep work to try and get that position. Didn't work out.
B) Baby, which some of you already knew about.
C) Family visits
D) Working overtime every week since March 29th.
E) Two new clinical manager jobs have opened up, and I have applications in for those and am hopeful for one in particular as it is for a floor I used to work on.
and the list goes on.
You may have noticed that I have still been active in other games, and less so here. That is not because I have lost interest. It's just that I am able to post easily when all I have to do is get in character mindset and throw up an RP post. But when I gotta start bouncing between tabs and such to get into the rules, it slows me down and my opportunities for doing so have become slim.
I have no plans of folding this game as long as you guys are understanding and with me on this. I'll post when I can, as detailed as I can.
I thought I had already stated this somewhere in the past, but I can't find it anywhere. The preview button makes being able to choose high or low being good for miss chance an almost guaranteed success, and I'd rather not have to even question whether people are using it or not. So from now on, any miss chance rolls are always high is good for the roller. Gianluca's last post is fine, this is just for future posts.
Ok, I'll do my best to remember that (and high==good seems reasonable).
As an aside, I *think* I adopted "low wins" for concealment from Thron. Thron, do you want to adopt the same rule for your game as well? (It'll be easier to remember if I do "high wins" everywhere.)
(I think I also used to roll 1d2 for 50/50 rolls and stopped that because I saw most folks rolling 1d100 instead, and I didn't want to have the appearance of cheating by choosing a different die.)
I don’t recall flipping my way of doing it around, but generally for me if I have 20% Miss Chance, I say 1-20 = miss and higher is good. Can’t recall ever doing it otherwise. Not saying I haven’t. But that’s my reflexive default.
I've always interpreted it as 50% miss chance, as in, 01 through 50 is the miss. But there's something out there that is rules-as-written where high equals bad and low is good. I can't recall what it is. I'd have to scroll through pages and pages, since it came up either here or in Thron's game.
Hey guys, sorry for the relatively slow updates lately. I'm fixing up a very rusty 1997 Jeep Grand Cherokee which I need to get done before the weather turns to sleet/snow/poop for the next several months. That is sucking up a significant amount of free time at the moment. I am also in my final college course and my wife is working more. All this is combining to slow things down, but I will get to this whenever I can.
I should be getting to this today sometime.
Having seen Grommesson make it to the archer, do I have any sense of if I could make it (ideally on a charge)?
The alcove you're in is adjacent to the entire hallway. Meaning you can step from any square in it, into any square in the hallway. I have no idea how you would know this or not know this in character, but you saw Thrassk do it so presumably you could too. Grommesson also went through the side alcove and came out the end. So if you want to to that, just monkey-see, monkey do.
Spreading this to all my games:
Sorry guys, planned on some substantial posting today. But upon return from a weekend trip, discovered some house chores that were in desperate need of no longer ignoring. So I’ve been occupied there today. I’ll post something of decent size as soon as life allows. Will continue smaller posts from mobile for now.
LOL
(And if that's where the I was hidden, you'd think Gianluca would've found it by now...) ;-)
Sorry, I'll post within the next few hours
whoops. edited my post to label each swing.
Happy Birthday to Jelania Poppita!
Thanks. Grandma and Grandpa visiting today, so busy with that. Then I am going to be painting my Jeep over the next several days. So don't expect too much from me in the way of updates. I will try my best to get something in, but if not, sorry for the delay.
No worries.
Been a busy weekend for me too. Wife’s birthday. But happy birthday nonetheless!
Hope everyone’s had a good holiday weekend (if you celebrate it).
Same to you. I finally got my Jeep painted, which was weather/time sensitive. So I should have more regular posting time starting tomorrow.
