I may or may not run Linux on my next machine. I haven't decided yet. And I'm a little intimidated, honestly. Old dogs =/= new tricks and all.
I was as well,
but I rigged my machine for Dual-booting so I can use windows for my window only programs, and use Linux for other things.
That's probably what I'll end up doing.
Also see this linux is not windows
Thanks for all the help, guys.
Heads up: I'll be away for the weekend with no internet access until maybe Sunday night.
heading out of town for a few days.....will only have iPhone til Friday so Im going to try and check in as best I can.
I go third with a 17. Wow.
Has anyone read through the ACG playtest yet?
Not yet. I will tonight as I have an overnight shift and I forsee much reading time.
I've looked over some of the classes in detail, and they seem good.
But I did a quick glace at the rest and they could be useful.
Haven't really looked at them yet.
I've looked at a few now and my impression is that they called it the Advanced Class Guide for a reason. None of these classes are simple or newbie-friendly.
I'm traveling with the family for the next two weeks. Will try to keep posting from phone but they will be short and probably not that pretty. Please dmpc me as needed to move forward.
Happy Thanksgiving, all!
This is a Public Service Announcement:
I'm diving head first into last prep for my national certification test on the 20th. Therefore, my posting will probably slow a bit until then. I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
AFK til Monday night.
Has anyone else's life just gone nuts? Mine has.
Yep
Yup
Yeah the holidays always get like that for me.
We've got three kids so it gets pretty nuts. I've got 3 family members staying at the house this weekend do we did a small dinner tonite.... then the 24th and 25th are at my inlaws, then friend over next weekend.
We definitely love all this stuff but it is a LOT of work as I'm sure we all know.
I have my brother moving back home so it makes it more difficult with moving all of his tihngs and still trying to find a job.
@ GM_Wu
that's no where near as bad, as I see the future to come.
Along with something Big happening on Sept 23th 2017.
Well I am listening to Richard Matthew Stallman right now and he makes a really distopian ideas.
Pretty much everything on the boards has stopped or slowed to a crawl and is just now starting to pick back up. No worries.
Understood.
I'm back now.
Down on one knee, Agromite points out several tracks in the dirt. "Looks like they match our 'friends' from the road. Wonder if this was their lair? Wonder what kind of goodies they've collected...."
The gnome moves further into the cave. Stealth: 1d20 + 9 ⇒ (20) + 9 = 29
Yikes. Looks like that stealth roll was so good people stopped noticing the entire thread.......so I figured a shameless bump couldn't hurt, right?
I was waiting for Maol/GM.
Sorry I have been to busy being distracted by linuxy things.
Any players have any input on how to determine if a spell is overtly hostile. Since a ready happens before the spell is cast and then can stop it. Spellcraft won't work as you need to see and listen to the spell being cast. So I am not really sure how you would confirm this as overtly hostile. Anyway probably will have them cast a defensive spell that would not break invisibility and therefore is not overtly hostile.
I would say that if the person makes the spellcraft check then they can readied attack or not based on the knowledge of the spell being cast. If they fail the spellcraft check then I think that they shouldn't get an attack unless they specifically say that they attack if the caster casts any spell since they wouldn't know if the spell was hostile or not since they failed the spellcraft check, but they might still know that the person is casting a spell.
That makes sense to me. "Act if they're hostile" is probably not specific enough to mean "attack to disrupt if they start casting a hostile spell".
Agreed. "Overt Hostile action" may have been a little vague on my part.
I think you can't make the spellcraft check until the spell is being cast though. Reading the description of spellcrafts says it is from seeing and hearing the person cast the spell not that they are starting to cast a spell. Readying an action to happen which happens before something after you know what something is would be time travel which skills don't allow you really to do.
The thing is not whether spellcraft can tell whether a spell is hostile it is when spellcraft check takes place which is right when the spell cast not on a windup of the spell.
If you delay like stervon did then after they cast the spell they can go back after.
However you want to run it is fine by me. They're just to casters. (Famous last words...)
One of my uncles has died. I'll be travelling and visiting with family, probably until Monday.
condolences, sir
Condolences from me as well.
Ouch, you have my condolences.
You have my condolences as well.
condolences.
Im leaving 7/20 to take my son to Boy Scout Camp.....6 nights up in the woods of upstate NY....i'll be bringing my iPhone but not sure what type of signal Im going to get. I will try to check in daily but do not hesitate to BOT me to keep things moving forward.
Out Camping for the long weeked
Ok I am posting on hospital waiting room unfortanetly.
Ok guys, I'm gonna stick a fork in this one and call it done. I appreciate you accepting me into this game, GM wu. This was my first PbP and I'm sad to see it go, but no posts for a month is just too slow for me. If you could remove me from the players tab list I'd appreciate it.

Choon, it's been nice playing with you.
GM_Wu, I'll second Choon's request. This one's just gotten too slow. PLease take me off the list too.
Same here. Definitely nice playing with you all.
