This morning between about 5 and 8 am pacific time, I voted 100 times (so saw 200 items), and this time I created an excel spread sheet to keep track of which items appeared (and in which column) and which items I voted for… here are some numbers that I pulled out of the data, I thought I would post them for those who might be interested in such things.

Total number of unique items: 175

21 items appeared twice, 2 items appeared 3 times

One of the items that appeared twice did so in back-to-back votes (on opposite sides), it did not get my vote either time.

2 items were items I had not seen previously, 4 were items that I had seen previously but not recently (since the cut down).

I did not see my own item.

I voted for the item on the left 53 times and the item on the right 47 times.

Later this today, probably starting around 1 pm pacific time, I plan on doing it again and comparing the results (to see if time of day really matters). Over the course of this week I plan on doing this at least 9 more times (at various times of day) giving me record of 1000 votes.

I invite others to attempt similar experiments and post them to this thread. comparing the data derived could prove to be interesting.

Mighty Cleaving: A mighty cleaving weapon allows a wielder using the Cleave feat to make one additional attack if the first attack hits, as long as the next foe is adjacent to the first and also within reach. This additional attack cannot be against the first foe. Only melee weapons can be mighty cleaving weapons.

Moderate evocation; CL 8th; Craft Magic Arms and Armor, divine power; Price +1 bonus.

Cleave (Combat)

You can strike two adjacent foes with a single swing.

Prerequisites: Str 13, Power Attack, base attack bonus +1.

Benefit: As a standard action, you can make a single attack at your full base attack bonus against a foe within reach. If you hit, you deal damage normally and can make an additional attack (using your full base attack bonus) against a foe that is adjacent to the first and also within reach. You can only make one additional attack per round with this feat. When you use this feat, you take a –2 penalty to your Armor Class until your next turn.

reading the weapon enhancement, it seems to me that all mighty cleaving does is allow you to use the cleave feat when you use the cleave feat... it make no mention of the extra attack being a second extra attack beyond the one you would normally get for hitting the foe while using the cleave feat anyway... am I missing something?

The Aranea in the bestiary 2 says that it casts as a 5th level sorcerer but doesn't have a bloodline or get bloodline special abilities. If I advance an aranea by adding sorcerer levels the caster level should stack (adding 5 sorcerer levels should make the aranea cast as a 10th level sorcerer).

now if I advance any given creature by adding sorcerer levels it would gain a bloodline just like any other sorcerer. I assume that by adding additional sorcerer levels to the aranea it should get a bloodline and bloodline abilities as well correct?

If so, should its bloodline abilities be based only upon the additional sorcerer levels or its total casting level?

Is there a rational reason why it is easier to create a flesh golem (required caster level 8) then it is to create the weaker ice and wood golems (Both required caster level 12th) in the Bestiary?

Basic Adventure Module B9 Castle Caldwell and Beyond was designed for the Mentzer edition of the Dungeons and Dragons game (AKA BECMI for Basic, Expert, companion, Masters and immortal, the names of the boxed sets that comprised it). Like all of the B series modules it was designed for characters level 1-3, yet unlike the other modules in the series, B9 was comprised not of a single adventure but of 4 shorter adventures. These adventures were The Clearing of Castle Caldwell (and the associated Dungeons of Terror underneath of it), The Abduction of Princess Sylvia, The Great Escape, and the Sanctuary of Elwyn the Ardent. These adventures (with the exception of The Abduction of princess Sylvia) would later be reprinted in the 'mega-module' B1-9 In Search of Adventure.

B9 has long been one of my favorite of the B series modules, and after seeing the thread on here about converting B2, I decided to go ahead and convert B9 to the pathfinder game. Eventually I plan on converting all of the adventures, but to this point I have only finished my favorite from the module, The Sanctuary of Elwyn the Ardent. I will post that conversion now, and post the other adventure conversions on this thread as I finish them. Feed back would be nice.

Hope somebody gets some use out of this,

You guys have done a great job so far making this a fun and exciting contest! I wanted to say Congratulations to every one of you that made the top eight, and I look forward to reading your locations.

bumping this up so that I can be sure it gets seen.

one bump to get this closer to the top for the weekend visitors to potentially see...

I am looking for 3-5 players to play in a Marvel Superheroes (Advanced Set) game that I will be running on Thursday nights from 6:30-10 pm at my apartment in Renton Washington (starting probably in early November).

If you are interested send me an email at cwslyclgh@aol.com, and I can give you more details.

well th deadline is past... did any Paizo posters decide to try to enter this one?

I was wondering if it would possible with PRPG to get dire animals to look more normal again? You know like they used to, before they became deformed parodies of the animals they are dire versions of, with inexplicable bumps, spikes, horns and tumorous growths.

I recently purchased the AD&D Dungeon Master's Adventure Log PDF from the paizo store and was dissapointed to find that it was incomplete, the original print product had a page of illustrations containing pictures of various weapons from the Player's Handbook... the Paizo PDF lacks that page (which was actually the entire reason I wanted the PDF).

I am not one to realy complain, and I am certainly not going to demand my money back or anything, but I was thinking that Paizo might want to put a disclaimer or mention of this fact on the page for the product so that others do not make the same mistake that I did.

Hi all,

I was thinking about submitting a creature for the wandering monster section, and just wanted to confirm that they are treated like the other campaign workbooks articles (ei. you don't need tos end a query first). I figure they are, as theya re in the CW section, but thought I would ask anyway since WM is not listed in the writers guidelines.

Greetings,

I am looking for 1-2 players to fill slots in my weekly AD&D 1e game on Thursday nights from around 6pm-10pm. anybody who is interested can send me an email at cwslyclgh@aol.com for more information.

Since Charles Ryan is no longer the D&D Brand Manager at WotC is it possible that WotC might relax thier current attitudes some and let Erik start putting more explicit Greyhawk content in Dragon and Dungeon?

I for one hope so, in the long run at least.

Hi all, I am looking for 1-2 players for both my monday night (around 6-10 pm) 3.5 D&D world of Greyhawk game and my thursday night (same time frame) 1st edition AD&D game set in my homade campaign setting of Wyrom. If you live in the area, and are interetsted in one or the other (or both) of the games please send me an email (cwslyclgh@aol.com) and I will be happy to provide more information.

What sorts of articles of the type that you regularly publish do you find that you get the least amount of submissions for?

I ask for the benifit of potential writers out there... I know from experience that it can be alot harder to sell an article to a magazine if they already have enough of that type of article to last for three life times... and conversely it can be easier to sell an article to a magazine if there is a general shortage of that type of article.

talking with Erik a few weeks back at one of the weekly greyhawk chats he mentioned that he was thinking of moving the new monster articles back to Dragon magazine. I was just wondering if he ever came to a descision on this, ei... are the new monster articles going to stay in dungeon, move back to dragon, or will both magazines be publishing new monster articles in the future?

when I try to download the styles sheets (next to the writers guidleines) for Dungeon I get a single page word document that says only...

This document contains the Microsoft Word style sheets for properly formatting your submissions.

there is nothing more to it then that... is there any way to get the actual style sheets?
