Well it seems the Paizo site has settle down a bit and the messageboards are back so we can get things rolling again!
Hopefully everyone has their copy of PFRPG or the PDF by now and if not the official PRD is up and running with everything we need to switch over to the PFRPG. Now this is going to take a little time I understand, lots of reading to do and such so I am giving us a couple of weeks to make changes and discuss any issues you might have with the new system. Don't hesitate to post your questions or issues here and I will get to them as quick as I can. If you don't feel for some reason posting here then just shoot me an email!
Now I know we started things with the old system and many changes have been made for good or the bad and you all had certain visions on how you wanted your pc's to grow as the game continues which conflict with the new rules. We are all here to have fun so I have no problem house ruling certain issues that come up and I diffinately don't want those issues to become deal breakers for you not wanting to play your pc anymore! So please let me know of any things you have problems with and we can deal with them together to resolve them.
Ok, Sept. 1 is the goal I have set for myself and this game to be fully converted and moving along smoothly. I plan on my days off coming up to spend the whole time working on the new rules and how they effect the AP, make changes where needed and deal with anything you come up with if any! The game will continue on as normal!
I will post for some new players this week sometime! So what pc's do you all think we need to round out the party? I'll let you all make the call and then post for those positons only!
Let me know where your at with things soon!
Cheers,
Rob

Copy and Paste is your friend, use it everytime and you will never lose all your work!!!!!
Yes go ahead and juggle! I have not read yet how they are doing it in the new book, usually I just said max hp + con bonus to make it easy. I will check it out and let you know if I want to change this but for now just go with I said above!

Ok looks like everyone is done! As soon as this combat is over we will start using the new rules! I still have a lot of reading to do so if I miss something don't hesitate to point it out so I can learn. work had been getting in the way of my free time of reading but I won't be a problem. I need to get all of the games back on track tonight and if I don't fall asleep I will post for new player, if not then tomorrow for sure!

Alright Zoo, I found the page. Wasn't looking for Cry Havok. Nice to be part of the group. Greetings everyone.
I am glad you found this with out me! I was at work when I saw your email but had no time to respond. Posting soon to introduce your pc's! Looks like it will be only five of you playing since the third has not responded to my emails! We shall see, but we must move on so check the game thread soon!

Hello, I am playing Ebenezer. I'm glad to be joining!
I assumed 3,000 starting gold for a third level character and purchased magic items: an earth elemental gem (my ace in the hole in case of dire need) and a couple pinches of dust of tracelessness.
My character is an illusionist (Wiz3) practically incapable of physical combat.

I didn't notice before that Roine had an emphasis on summoning. To avoid overlap, and if no one objects, I'm going to swap out Summon Monster I for Charm Person.
Graynore, I'll mention that Roine's Color Spray overlaps Ebenezer's specialization, in case you want to make a similar swap (of course it's fine with me if we both color spray).

Zoo, gang, my apologies.
Work has gotten very busy for me lately, and I don't really have time to keep up with my games anymore. Thanks for the fun times and the memories, and I will keep reading your progress whenever I get a moment to myself.
Sorry.
Sorry to see you leave, it was great to have you play in my game. Thanks for letting me know and take care! There will still be a spot for you if you want in the future if your free time clears up! Good luck! Cheers, Zoo

Cool! But I wonder why the +7 appears twice. And why show the unmodified die result? No one needs it, and you can infer it with a little arithmetic. Also, what's with the weird := symbol?
I just want to see 1d20+7=18.
Anyway, I'm glad to see we finally have this on the messageboards. It will be much more convenient for pbp. I just hope the gripers make themselves heard so we can get the rough edges sanded down.

it shows as to show the roll. it is needed really. for instance it shows the roll you got and for me thats better then having to subtract in my head to see if maybe I got a crit.
Also I play shadowrun here where you roll d6's and only a 5 or 6 is a hit so i can do like so 10d6 ⇒ (6, 4, 1, 6, 5, 5, 3, 1, 3, 2) = 36 and see just how many hits I got. In that case I got 4 hits. Wod uses d10's but same ideal

Interesting, the expanded dice result doesn't show up inside of a quote.
I see your point about crits and 10d6 making the unmodified result useful. I still wish the modifier didn't get repeated. Maybe it could be
1d20(11)+7=18
That aside, the biggest problem is the ease of cheating. I hope our pbp doesn't use the new dice roller for that reason.
Just to prove my point:
1d20 ⇒ 20

Hello Zoo and everyone else. I just found out that my work is no longer "surf controlling" Paizo.com. I'm very excited! I'm also very glad to see the game still rolling. I'll be lurking for as long as the powers that be will let me.
Glad your still around! Hope all is well with you and if you feel you have the time to rejoin our fine group just give the word! Closing in on the goblin lair and the end of the first AP, took awhile to get here but we're still plugging along! Take care and have fun lurking!
