Go ahead and do that. It is your turn and all. And I'd rather not dig through a kintetisct character sheet to find all the stats on that.

Give me just a moment - I have been fighting a constant WiFi outage in my place :(

FYI: leaving on a business trip tomorrow, and I doubt I'll have a chance to post until sunday/monday.

Be safe! Have fun!

Hopefully you have good meal comps. Those were my favorite things for business trips (when I had them), trying new and interesting reasturants.
Good speed

Thank you all for your patience for my random break. It was a great time, but now I'm back at work and back at the game.
Tarphrex the Magnificent |
Glad it was good! I will never intentionally stand in the way of love and commitment. Or even really, really like and commitment, to be honest. :D

My turn for a trip with my significant other. If Tarphrex' action is slowing down the action, please skip or bot him. I may be able to check in, but I cannot guarantee it and don't want you to lose any momentum because I'm off on a trail.
I hope everyone is well (or recovering, where necessary)!
Cheers!

Thank you! We have already put a crazy (for us) number of miles on bike trails in just two days. Tomorrow, we move to a new town with new trails (and new restaurants) and do it again - if our legs have anything left, that is.
Met a couple today that have a goal of riding a century in every state. That's a hundred mile day for us mere mortals that don't speak of such things. I was thrilled to get (only) 40 miles today!

Hey all, my keyboard is dying on me. Two letter keys no longer work. I ordered a new one (albeit not the same kind, because Microsoft sucks and discontinued the keyboard I've been using for the last 20+ years) but it'll take about two days to get here. So if my posts are short, it's because I'm on my tablet and I hate typing on a touchscreen.

@Tarphrex: We did some trail on our honeymoon, in the days where I could still do such things. We rode on every trail on the map. The funny thing was that we thought the trails were color-coded so you could tell them apart. That was not the case. The colors were there to show the difficulty of the path, including ones that we later found out were marked for "do not take bikes on these paths". We were very sore the next day.
@Elisani: I'm thinking it's time for some creative vocabulary.

Do any of you play any 1E home games?
For those of you who don't know, I help run a game convention called Farmageddon. We do an event there called The Gauntlet, a series of challange rooms for Pathfinder 1E at level 5, culminating in a big central chamber where are surviving teams compete for the final prize. Problem I'm having is that the group that was playtesting the rooms for us (outside of our own playtesting) is run by a friend of mine. A friend who has decided to start attending and competeing in the Gauntlet. So, huzzah to see my friend. Boo in that we lost our beta-testers. Would any of you be interested/available to do play testing?
Sherman Blake |
Playtesting sounds interesting, but I assume you're not talking about PBP(?). Would this take place to any sensible time for one being awake on european daytimes? :)
@Ceven: Feel free to take the belt. I just thought DEX and CON were priorities for Kineticists.
Ain the watcher |
Yeah my group plays a sunday 1e pathfinder game. Homebrew setting
I'm playing a crafting wizard, and the only other player is some combination of Skald paladin.
We run a much more extensive 5e game, not out of preference but the others in our friend group started in 5e whereas myself and our sunday Gm started in Pathfinder
Estella Vale |
I'm definitely not opposed to helping out with a playtest but I can imagine I'd be a hard person to plan around, life's been pretty busy!
GM Sphen |
This would be me sending materials (via email) to you (or your GM) to run at your home game. Not play-by-post, unless that is how your home game operates already.
Ideally, I'm not involved at all so as to not taint the experience. Part of the play test is making sure that what I wrote makes sense to someone who's not me. This year has four total rooms, and the materials would include full maps.
Also, this material is not yet ready to be sent. It'll be October at the earliest before it is ready for other people to fiddle around with. Playtesting would need to be done by March 2025.
And I cannot afford to compensate you. It would be only worth my gratitude, limited that it is, and a playtest credit on the title page.
Actually, I would include the pdf's for the previous two years of Gauntlets to anyone who completes the playtesting. That's 14 additional rooms, all designed for PF1E at level 5, complete with maps.
It's not a small thing I'm asking for, and I know that. But if you have a group that likes a unique challange, this is the sort of thing that should interest you. I'll expound details out the nose if anyone wants them.
The first year, the team that won made it out with only 7 minutes left (out of 8 hours).
The second year, no team was able to complete it.
This year, we'll see.

I dumped STR actually, I was affirming that we shoulld sell it when we can :)

Unfortunately I don't have an in-person group. Just the PbP games in this forum.
Tarphrex the Magnificent |
I am trying to get my office friends into a gaming group with some success. I could try this with them when it’s ready - we are doing short arcs only, which should work for this request.
We started cycling later in life, so we had encountered “black diamond” trails in other contexts and recognized what they were when we saw them on the map. Glad you only had sore muscles the next day!

Yeah, I just have PbP and 1 VTT game that I joined through StartPlaying. Yes, in case you want to ask, it is totally worth every dollar that I pay for it. While Ceven may be one of my favorite characters ever, Nathan Lebeda is def my favorite (yep, it's a Kingmaker AP)
I do love that there are people out there doing the old school thing and making the magic happen at a real table though.
Estella Vale |
Ah, yes, I'm sadly out of a home game right now as well, so I won't be able to help. Sorry!
GM Sphen |
@Ain: Is this something you think your group would be interested in trying out? Maybe for sessions when not everyone can make it?
@Tarphrex: If that gets off the ground, let me know.
@Everyone: Thank you for your consideration.
@Everyone 2: Even proofreading would be a help. If you read it and can't understand what I'm trying to convey, that means I've done a poor job writing it. I have a grammar proofer and another general proof reader, but the more the merrier.
Tarphrex the Magnificent |
@GM Sphen: I can virtually guarantee two players will be interested, so plan on my crew. And I'm always willing to proofread. I am literally reading some materials right now I got from a Kickstarter and cringing at the misspellings. I generally see them even if I'm not looking, so if that idiosyncrasy benefits you, use it.
Elisani Dascalu |
I’m willing to proofread too. I am the family spellchecker, misspelled words jump off the page at me. I also like to think that I’m good at flow and clarity in my writing.
GM Sphen |
If misspellings are super obvious to you, reading my posts must be torture for you. I fully know how horrible I am at spelling.
Elisani Dascalu |
Eh, I've been on the internet since the 90s. I'm used to it. :P
Tarphrex the Magnificent |
You correctly spelled misspellings, you are a cut above most.
And, what Elisani said - I have callouses from the rough edges reading online posts. Even "professional" posts.
