Eh, Im cool with it. Course, Im not the guy getting snarked.
I did suggest that someone stay behind. Guess I should've been the one to volunteer.
You know what they say about splitting the party.
Dont do it. Thats what they say.
Does that really apply when I have a cohort that's in constant telepathic communication with me, and can be teleported to my side at any time?
is anyone else having the site logging them out randomly?
Yeah. I was fine for about a week, so I thought it was over.
I've only been having the issue on mobile this week.
Hasn't let up for me.
huh, it logged me out ever session for some reason.
I seriously think the lone hamster powering their servers died or something, I keep on getting logged out for no reason.
and no, there is nothing changed in my internet settings.
It's not you, it's Paizo.
...it's breaking up with us because we kept money for rent.
Do you gents want me to try ripping the bomb off the ship and hurling it?
That sounds awesome.

I want to apologize to everyone for my recent dearth of posting. I've been busy, yes, but not so busy I can't drop in for a quick post once a day, and that's on me. I think part of the problem is that my willingness to post (in all my games) was sapped by another game I was running that I simply didn't WANT to post in any more, but me feeling a bit guilty about that.
Starting today, I'm going to attempt to turn things around in this game, with your help. I want to try to get back into the once a day rhythm and get this game back on track. That means when you post, I post. When I post, I need you guys to post (of course). Particularly for combats a round or even two per day isn't out of the realm of reason, we've managed it before.
With that it should help us sail along at a smoother clip and have a bit more fun together. Deal?
Sounds good to me.
I like it. I'm in.
Aye, cap'n!
Sounds good.
im in
Just to confirm, all the ships are out now, right?
Yeah, all the fires are out.
The Eel may be my favorite NPC (statblock-wise) I've used running Adventure Paths. He's actually built quite well (I changed nothing about the block, save swapping a couple of Discoveries for thematic ones that didn't exist when it was originally made), and his Tactics block is uncharacteristically sensible for a Paizo made statblock. His Feats, equipment, and Extracts were all very well chosen for his profession.
I usually ignore the Tactics section because they make many encounters feel same-y (and basically boil down to "They have these buffs and flee when HP is below X amount"), but I wish I'd had the chance to use his normal combat strategy (alas, that strategy relied on him being indoors from the start; you guys actually did an excellent job tracking him down before he was "supposed" to be found initially).
Hey guys! We didn't completely suck!
You didn't suck at all, to be honest. He just had a kit geared for "Get in, get out, complete the mission" and an in-universe/backstory reason for being almost Batman-level informed and prepared for various scenarios.
He hasn't even escaped yet, you guys potentially have another chance to nab him.
Even if you don't, you managed to foil all his attempts to sabotage you without causing undue distress to your guests. This scenario could have gone WAY worse, and him getting away is really a scenario where he may have won the battle but you have definitely won the war here.
I hope you don't feel as though you've failed in this situation, this was almost an unmitigated success for you.
Oh no, I thought we did well. I was mostly just having fun.
So that's 0 for 3 on summoned monsters doing anything useful. Maybe this is why Krom never uses them.
I swear the only time I didnt have arcana theft prepared....
Could have "stole" the blur from him, making the fight a lot more fair.....
Is this one of those times where giving a return gift of 'Big Bottle of Fancy Booze' is likely to be seen as awesome, or a horrible insult?
Booze is never insulting to a pirate.
I think it's just because they don't wanna drink naval rum. Having drunk naval rum - the real, genuine recipe - it's horrifying. Opening the bottle peels paint from the fumes.
We have been serving it to them for the entire feast, so I'm sure they'd have spoken up if it bothered them.
Nah, we've been serving the captains Fancy Booze. It's the kind that doesn't make you blind.

The rum rations in book 1 of this AP are easily capable of killing PCs if they don't manage to surreptitiously rid themselves of it every night.
1d4 Con damage. No save. Addictive.
The con damage is alcohol poisoning.
It occurs to me that I could've used Mounted Combat (twice per round with Trick Riding) to save Gurram from most of the bombs.
I completely forgot I had those. :I
Going by the thread search to make sure,
but it looks like we had been level 11 by may at least.
So the question is, do you want 11 or 12 SD?
11 is what you're supposed to be by the end. Maybe I leveled you earlier but some of you forgot to do it?
Seems like it.
welp i actually am level 11 i just forgot to update my header thingy.
How did we HP? Roll, or half? Follow-up question, can I trade out a couple of spells?
PFS average (half, round up). And yes, you've had about a month of downtime, so retraining is fine.
Anybody seen Dual?
The film or the anime?
The player.
The game based on the film, based on the game. Also no.
I had gotten logged out again and hadn't realized bc of the UI changes. SHould be fixed to remember my login now.
Just a heads up, I haven't forgotten about the game or anything. I've been steadily increasing my workload the past few weeks and it has left me a bit too sick of typing to write more after I'm done (been writing articles/reviews for about 6 hours at a stretch every day, plus other stuff).
Looks like I'm getting tomorrow and the weekend free enough (my employer hasn't set a new deadline yet) so I'll make a post and try to get things cracking over the weekend. When I get a handle on my new workload I'll also start picking up posts during the week again better.
Quick Ixrul, post before the site goes down again!
Computer had to go in bc of a faulty part after site came back up :(
Dug out a backup computer so we should be ok now tho
Gonna be pretty busy for the next week or so. I'll try to post when I can, but go ahead and bot Krom if I slow things down too much.
