The more I think about it, I will be interested to see how long I hang on to my paladin- hood... maybe before it's all said and done I'll end up a human fighter after all... ha!

Meh... I don't know.

I'll think about it, it just sounds way less fun than it did before.

If I can come up with a way for it to sound fun, I'll reconsider.

Yes please on the comliness stat!

Leaving towards human paladin, silk leaving that open to change, but will settle on it soon

-Posted with Wayfinder


Dang, that would have been awesome... oh well! :)

You mentioned you would roll, I just wanted to get my choice out there for your convenience.

And I also remember when Aaron first got me into this game, I was always bummed that I could never roll well enough to qualify to play a paladin... I'll go over everything, but that might just be my choice!

-Posted with Wayfinder


Glad you enjoyed your time stateside! Hopefully there will be some more opportunities down the road.

-Posted with Wayfinder


Glad you liked it! I know I had fun writing it. Now as Aaron said, to sum up gen con! Good thing I took all those notes...

-Posted with Wayfinder


You need to Re dot the gameplay... same as me just now! Happens once in a while...

Sorry to hear about that deussu! Yes, sometimes it's better to just walk away.

@GM BS - I concur with Jyri, the burly bug has been almost an epidemic lately. One way or another, I am determined to finish the story of the drongos. It might not be through pfs, but it will happen.

I am getting ready to board the flight home from Florida. Is between an awesome vacation full of zoo animals, Disney, cirque du soliel, and a $600 superfecta at the nearby dog track. Minus the Disney, we might just make visiting family in Florida a yearly thing.

Ha! Nope, in fact it was actually a True Resurrection. No restoration necessary!

Thanks for the comments and kind words on my beastie!

I love the idea of them being able to combine. The contest is already 'over' for submission and change purposes, and I've already been lucky enough to come out in the top 6 - all that is left to do is convince people to vote and wring my hands/chew My nails and hope I win the popular vote :)

Been thinking about that a lot lately too. The realization that I came to is...

What would make the site flakiness easier to handle is if they would just freaking communicate. It's easy, watch this:

Attention Paizo website frequenters! We are working diligently on upgrading your web experience, and as a result, you may see some intermittent downtime issues from [x time] to [y time]. Our apologies for the inconvenience.

Viola! Easy. Nobody is annoyed beyond belief.

Yea that is last year's Bonspiel. I have serious consideration to driving to Lewiston on Thursdays for curling... It's only about 2.5 hours from battle creek.... Not impossible...

-Posted with Wayfinder


I would love to do paizo con one of these years, definitely not this year.

Logistically, gen con is perfect for things like vacation days for me because it falls a month after the July 4th holiday. Our plant gets a week of holiday during that time, but due to the nature of my job, I am often working through that holiday week. So I get comp days. Which means I can use those days to go to gen con without actually using my vacation days.

If I did paizo con, I would have to use vacation days... Not impossible, but would require more planning with the wife and family.

The rest is just about money, and that's just budgeting, definitely not impossible at some point, just not going to work out this year.

My sister also just got engaged. She lives in London.... So next year I might not be doing any extra trips if we are going to London for a destination wedding.

Nice work keeping your head down! Based on the blur of the ball I'm going to guess this was nice and low with a long roll once it hit the center of the fairway.

sooooo jealous

Visiting friends and relatives this weekend, so very limited posting.. All I know is I want Amaranti becoming a seeker along with the rest of the Drongos. If there's a new seeker arc coming, I'm sure interested. But if it looks uncertain or way too far in the future, I'm cool with EotT as well.

This is pretty much exactly my line of thinking. We have some time before we get there, and at gen con we can get Mikko drunk and make him tell us all of the secret plans for pfs and modules.

I just wanted to bring it up because I had been drinking the conspiracy kool-aid and that is what my brain cooked up. I shared it with a few of the guys a bit in passing, and Damien encouraged me to share it with everyone. I'm glad I did :)

-Posted with Wayfinder


I've read about the wardens, and while it sounds fun on some level, I don't want to do it with the drongos. Perhaps another character.

The prospect of a new seeker arc would be enough for me to want to wait for it to come out, should we actually hit 12 before it does. If we hit 12 and there are no immediate plans for a new seeker arc, then I would consider revisiting doing eott with Cyrus and the drongos.

Just to clarify my thoughts. And im not opening that spoiler. Not doing it... temptation is strong... Must... Maintain... Optimum... Fun factor.... :)

Are you coming to gen con Jyri?

-Posted with Wayfinder


Woooo!

-Posted with Wayfinder


Make that two!

-Posted with Wayfinder


I posted in the isle of dread thread, but figured I would mention it here for completeness sake.

You gotta do you, Damien. I'm bummed and sad, and selfishly I hope you find a way to stay around. But taking care of yourself and you're family always has to be the top priority.

I am glad and honored to have net and gamed with you. Totally looking forward to gen con, and will always hold out hope to continue gaming with you somehow in the future. I'll take what I can get while it lasts!

-Posted with Wayfinder


Good luck to your Texans today Damien!

I picked them in my pool. Not sure if that was the smartest choice against the rolling chiefs, but what the heck right? This is the guy who would be willing to bet on the lions....

Happy New year everyone!

Just in case you don't read the blog, Christmas free boon for everyone here.

My wife and I are taking my 7 year old daughter through all the previous movies. Finished 4 through 6 earlier this week, just finished episode 1 this morning.

I know everyone says the 'new' 3 are awful, but I am a simple man and easily entertained. So far my daughter likes them. Leia is her obvious favorite.

Family movie night at the theater coming soon...

-Posted with Wayfinder


What?! They spoiled their own movie?! That's just rude.....

-Posted with Wayfinder


I did get mine, but it was some time after I finished my game. (can't remember exactly, but it was several weeks) He is also likely trying to wrap up the specials.... If you need it soon you can have mine and give me yours later :)

Don't worry packer fans, you know you can count on the victory against Detroit in lambeau every year! #MightNeedItThisYear #Oops #MaybeNextYear

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! May your day be filled with family, food, and a Lions victory.

We have at least 11 more scenarios to go, and at least a few at half speed for some of us to make sure we all end up at exactly level 12.

I am with Damien, I would like to do all the season 7s with the drongos together. By the time we get close to level 12 they will be talking about season 8, so we should be able to hit them all.

In general I don't like taking half credit because there are a limited amount of scenarios with which to get credit, but we can always consider going slow track for the purpose of fitting in some of the appropriate early season stuff to get introduced to the characters in the big story.

I had a bug today that I would create a "road map" for the drongos to get to 12, just haven't gotten to it yet.

For the lower level scenarios, I would be happy to take the alts through, or give the alts to John or whoever to run some scenarios. Of the four you suggested I have played three, the only one I haven't played is frozen fingers.

Errrr..... More later.

-Posted with Wayfinder


No apologies necessary! I'm glad that everything went well.

Also glad I could add a bright spot to your day. That's half the reason I do this. Fun with friends is fun :)

Some crazy pants stuff in that thread...

-Posted with Wayfinder


For the rant, I just wanted them to see that pbp drives sales, and therefore should be treated with an urgency to match. Maybe they have that urgency, but being so coy and secretive about it is frustrating to the customer.

As customers, we want to believe that it's all going to be perfect and amazing. Throw us a bone, you've got a +10 to your bluff to right off the bat... Just give us a little something to latch on to!

-Posted with Wayfinder


I have to pass... I'm comfortable with my bite sized pfs scenarios right now, I am not ready to take on anything bigger. Thanks for bringing it up though

-Posted with Wayfinder


Ok, read through the guide... I love it. I may be a little partial because you used one of my posts to help illustrate a point, but the content stands on its own. That's a good read!

-Posted with Wayfinder


Nice! Marked! And very well put too.

-Posted with Wayfinder


I'll get my game posts up tonight, finally home! It feels so good...

Just had to pop on here fast to tell John I saw an email that said there were pathfinder discounts for hero lab...

-Posted with Wayfinder


Stupid airport WiFi...

Whaaa? Lort died? I expect a full report in the zedroom.... :)

@John - I was still on such a high from that Michigan state win I tried to pay as little attention as possible to the lions. Still couldn't help myself once in a while, but we spent the day at the zoo. Much better use of time imo....

-Posted with Wayfinder


That was all a really long way to say yes, I think pfs can be just as good as an ap when you have the group of players that John is talking about, players that have similar styles and a desire to tell a story.

-Posted with Wayfinder


Same thoughts from me. I think it's less about the campaign and more about the characters. I've always thought of pfs as like a weekly sitcom/drama. The individual stories are different and entertaining in their own way, but the common thread of character development and interaction that happens in the background is what makes it awesome. When you have a group like ours then we can use those interactions as well as the influences of the scenarios to give some spice and course correction to the character's overall story.

The storm in the throaty mermaid game didn't change Cyrus and Ibid's backstory, but it gave us a chance to throw done hints out and use the experience to color the relationship between the two characters.

One other thing I am excited about as we continue this story with everyone in this group is how we can incorporate everyone into the story as it moves forward. Amaranti, lort, miro, finarin, binaries, and even done of the less used characters like faustus can pay a role in how Cyrus chooses to deal with this. And none of it really has anything to do with any pfs scenario, except for how we let it color the ongoing story.

I kinda rambled there... Hopefully that was actually on topic and made sense... :)

Also really appreciate the kind words about our backstory John!

Glad you guys are enjoying it! I had a lot of fun writing it, I know Chris did too. I don't think I realized how much I enjoyed it until we posted last night...

-Posted with Wayfinder


So I struggle with my PbP load constantly. The player in me wants to add more games because I want something to read everyone I check. The realist in me knows that there is a level where it is unsustainable, and posting quality suffers.

I am really enjoying GMing this game, and I expect I will be doing more of it, though probably for our group only moving forward, for the near future anyways. Damien is right on, if you didn't tell me I wouldn't know they are newbies, they really latched on to it. Makes it a lot of fun to GM. Kajar is coming along, like a super tanker. Just takes those things done time to get moving. I love his persistence, and he seems like he is seeking to get better and learn more.

That is so awesome about finishing another AP on here. Our RoW game is chugging along at full tilt and I am loving it. All of this together is making me a better gamer, I can tell the difference.

Random thought... Lockwood: we have got to finish that backstory... It is so tantalizingly close....

I am so impacted with PbP right now that taking on another game might break me. Aisle of Bread stretched my dough...another PbP before I get out of the 3 that are about to end would be like putting the slicing before the baking. I'd be toast.

Look on the bright side. At yeast the ones you are in are so good. And you've really risen to the occasion. When you get into 7 grains games or more, it can feel like you're going to crack (top wheat).

yup, stretched for a few of those...

@damien - race boon (me too!)

-Posted with Wayfinder


Ahhh! Not happy with my posts. I feel like maybe this is what writers block is... I'm staring at it and just can't come up with anything. Ilk get it together eventually, just wanted to apologize for anything that is sub par to all your awesome work.

-Posted with Wayfinder


Wild guess here, but I would bet that all of the content pertaining to the currently legal races will be allowed.

Here is the wild guess part, they will change the list of extra legal races next pfs season in order to help boost more sales.

-Posted with Wayfinder


I'll give it to you at gen con .... :)
