Yeah, my VC awarded me that 5th star last fall although it hasn't shown up on my profile yet. Actually the thing that delayed it a little was getting to the point where I had GMed 10 specials.

GM Hills |

Yeah, I'm trying to get as many specials as I can on my path to 150. I have 3 so far, and am just about to hit 70. I am GMing two more in March, maybe 3. I won't hit 150 for at least another year, which means I have a couple more cons that I can try and get a special here and there and once I hit 4 Stars...I'll run some Bonekeep, I guess.

Sorry guys, I'll be unable to check much if any during this weekend, having guests over and a death in the family, will be back on sunday evening.
Bot me if needed.

Unalaq |

Sorry to hear that Fernus. My prayers are with you and your family.

Tarinhilliberanavius |

Condolences, Fernus.

Valeria Vanessa Valdemar |

Con weekend, little to no posting!

Darin the Cheerful |

What are we waiting on?

Unalaq |

Still a couple cultists by me, including the "controlled" leader, correct?

Tarinhilliberanavius |

Can we see where they came up from?

Valeria Vanessa Valdemar |

Sorry, I'm back. Is 3 still up?

Tarinhilliberanavius |

Personally, I'd like to continue -- I'm still liking my character and his relationship with some of the others.
I do think so some extent, the multi-level encounter has been a little confusing and has us off our game a little -- and some of us are kind of in a holding pattern waiting for others.
Of course, that's just my opinion -- if others are less keen, then I'll be a mite disappointed, but so be it.

Unalaq |

I'd be sad. I still am enjoying the game and Unalaq. As you could probably tell, I am struggling with the map for this particular encounter. It simply isn't working the way I think it should and has thrown me off, but it seems to be just me and I'm sure future encounters will be more clear.
I also thought I was waiting on Bear and Valeria in Gameplay, but now realize they have posted their actions here. If it is ok to move to the next round, I will post.
That said, if you want to call it, I understand. I agree that our momentum is not what it was.
On your PFS question, I believe the way it works is that you set up the game for the one game, but when you report it, there will be a dropdown that will give you each section of the AP as a choice. Pick part 2 and put our info in for that and I think you'll be good to go.

Darin the Cheerful |

I haven't really gotten to do much RP unfortunately, but there's only so much you can do in combat. Hopefully when we're out of the sawmill it'll get better but I'm nauseated at the moment so is there anything I can do but move?

Valeria Vanessa Valdemar |

I'm in for a penny, in for a pound. I will admit I am frustrated with this current fight because I'm having a hard time visualizing the smoke, but I check every day and I love Val. That said, I will do as you wish on either end of it and understand your feelings for sure.

Fernus Stonecall |

More like what Tarin mentioned, the multiple story building and the noxious gas and blasts of fire make this a little chaotic and confusing. Also not much I can do if I'm nauseated, still not sure where that cloud is exactly.

Valeria Vanessa Valdemar |

No gas on first floor, at this point, then?

Bear aka Orlog |

Bear has been Naseated for about 6 rounds or 1.5 weeks in real life :]
Still into it, just the encounter Bear can't do anything because I keep rolling 5 or less on my Fort save....darn dice roller.
I would like to continue. I will admit though that life has me as slammed as I have ever been. That is another reason that I haven't posted much in any game I am in.
We sold our house in 6 hours, have to be out in three weeks and no new place to live yet...it is all piling on me at once. Woe is me...its a good problem to have ATM.

Unalaq |

Nope, where ever you want to pick up is cool. There are definitely some encounters in any published adventure that work better and worse in play-by-post.

Darin the Cheerful |

I guess that's OK - will you do a summary or something about it?
And what do we do for treasure, just take the lump sum between 7 and X level?

Darin the Cheerful |

Well now I'm more sanguine about the whole thing!

Tarinhilliberanavius |

No objection -- it's totally the case that some stuff works a bit better in PbP that others.
Do we get some sort of recap of what we "did" off camera? ;)

Darin the Cheerful |

Problem: Clocktower.
Solution: Alchemist's fire + catapults.

Tarinhilliberanavius |

Sadly,
(a) Magnimar's kind of proud of its monuments and likely wouldn't much care for property destruction;
(b) Collapsing buildings = collateral damage, and;
(c) No way of knowing if you got 'em or they escaped.
I think we need to do this the more traditional way -- though I'm good with the 'blowing up the bad guys' part of the plan.

Darin the Cheerful |

No one ever wants to form an army. This is why I'm not allowed the Leadership feat.

Tarinhilliberanavius |

Hey, I'm all for having an army. Just need to be sure it's loyal. ;)

Darin the Cheerful |

Hey, I'd have the feat!

Fernus Stonecall |

Just a question Mini, would you allow people to get past barred doors by using Create Pit?
just to clarify, Create Pit under the door, climb down the pit, climb up at the other side of the door and dismiss the pit. Breaking and entering without making a sound.
