Zo, you finally show yourzelf! Behold, the fiend that possessed my poor doktor vater for zo many yearz! If he had only listened to me, he could have faced you for what you are: an archetype of the collective Unconscious, zurging up, a fragment of his own Shadow that controlled him because it was never made conscious.

Back on topic, I enjoyed the Geist chat. I've never been a WoD fan (with the exception of Monte Cook's), but this sounds pretty spiffy. I'll have to check it out, especially to see all the cool parts you didn't talk about.
Thanks, Taig! This game has me pretty geared up too.
Not being able to talk about this from here, that from there, and the other thing from over there was tough, but the dude abides. ;)

Well I seldom point people towards things I like... that's Ed job. If anything, I try to anti-link you to things I want to save you from... like bad movie sequels. ;)
Can someone please remind me- when will R+E's Gencon podcasts available for listening, and how many will there be?
Well, what do you know, Atomic Array's first(?) Gencon podcast is now up! Weird how no-one posted about it here yet...
Gen Con started with a bomb this year, as Paizo Publishing released the long-awaited Pathfinder RPG Core Rulebook. We spoke with a bunch of people, from Paizo employees to people picking up the game at the booth. You can also check some of the video we captured by visiting the Paizo home page, or finding us on Facebook.
A number of third-party publishers are releasing Pathfinder-compatible products this fall. We spoke with 4 Winds Fantasy Gaming about their first release, Book of Arcane Magic.
Brandon Hodges is serving as our ‘beat reporter’, adding more voices to the Atomic Choir by speaking with gamers in the hall and on the street.
Lastly, but not leastly (is that a word?), we spoke with Mongoose Publishing’s Matthew Sprange about Traveller. Ed’s all happy about their Hammer’s Slammers adaptation…

Tonight is Werewolf night, so check back tomorrow to find out who the murderous canines were!
The Pathfinder episode and GenCon part I -- more excellent shows, guys! If one the Ennies this year hadn't been so lame...maybe you'll skip them in your coverage.

Oh, I didn't realize they released the Pathfinder episode already. Thanks! Now that the two newest episodes have been acknowledged, we now return to your regularly scheduled posters.
After the largest open playtest in RPG history, and over two years in the making, the Pathfinder RPG is out! Jason Bulmahn, lead designer at Paizo Publishing, joins us to celebrate. We also speak with James Jacobs and F. Wesley Schneider about ‘Council of Thieves’, the first Pathfinder Adventure Path using the new Pathfinder RPG system.

There is a lot more to the Pathfinder RPG than we could fit into this one episode. Feel free to ask questions, or leave a comment on the site. You can also share Atomic Array with a friend, or contact us directly. In fact, we’d love to hear what you think about the games you’re playing. Tell us what you like (or don’t), and what you’d like to see on the Array in the future.
Thank you so much for the help, guys. I wasn't able on get on the Paizo messageboards (too many people downloading the new Corebook PDF?) and I really appreciate it.
Hope you enjoy the latest Pathfinder episode. :)
We offer some solid previews of the coming adventure path, Council of Thieves.
Gaaaaaahhhhhhh!
I shall petition my Congressman to legislate more bandwidth for you!
Speaking of which, Gencon Day 2, Day 3, and Day 4.
Day 2: They talk with Mongoose about the new Paranoia products, chat with Terra/Sol Productions about their new Traveler setting, and some more about Pathfinder.
Day 3: They talk about the game they played earlier in a Mongoose-published setting for 4e, and chat about Planet Stories with the almighty Mona.
Day 4: They talk to Lisa Stevens about Pathfinder's reception at the con, talk about the card-stock terrain from Fat Dragon Games, and return to Mongoose to find out some more about Traveler.

Great episode! I'm looking forward to the hernia that is the PFRPG Core book. And I won the contest for Geist! Which is, in a word, awesome. I am a huge Orpheus fan, having purchased the set when it came out and lovingly addicted several others to it. Geist seems like a very worthy successor to the idea and I am absolute looking forward to reading it! Thanks!
Can't wait to listen to all the Atomic Array goodness. I'm going to be taking the long way into work this week. :)
Thanks, taig! Please let us know what you like or dislike about these shows.
RPG author Brandon Hodge contributed gamer-on-the-floor interview segments to each show, and they were funny and entertaining. Methinks the man has the appropriate chops to well deserve his own show.
Stop it Jade!!!
I don't get it.
How many posts were there before Jade started deleting them?
Stop it Jade!!!
LOL Sorry! My posts kept crashing so I kept composing and submitting over and over again before I saw them all appear at once. I think I can shear them back to just one. ;)
Davi The Eccentric = rock! Thanks, man. You're much better at this than I am.
I don't get it.

Just three... but you don't push Mairkurion past two without a flurry of blows coming your way. The man's what you call hair-trigger.

RE: Rone's Rant: Bad Samaritans
OK, I have tried to help people time and time again. I really do try. For some reason, though, people think I'm scary. I swear, one time, I stopped to help a car that was stopped on the side of the road, and they got back in and drove away.
I mean, come on, I'm a responsible guy. I have my friggin' Eagle Scout award TATTOOED onto my chest. I will not f%&@ you over, I will not take your shit, and I will not kill you (that is, if you're not on my list).
It's good to see that at least two other people out there have had the same type of experiences.

Oh, I hear you loud and clear, Space Ranger.
I think some people just aren't used to receiving help from strangers, and when it comes from a non sanctioned source, they assume the very worst. Sure, there are some real creeps/monsters out there that will run a confidence scam of some sort - pretending to assist you in order to take your money or worse - but you'd think a sincere offer to help would be read as sincere more often than it usually is. Watching people sphincter-lock at the sight of you at your most civic minded just feels so damn counter intuitive to what you thought was going to happen. This overpowering fear we've been taught or learned feels like a betrayal of the society good.
My friend said that in some states you can do 10 years for giving CPR without a medical license if the person dies and their family decides to get litigous. I hope that sentence has never actually been rendered. It's hard enough to get some people to hold a door for you...

Great. NOW you told everybody what to do to figure out if I follow their posts or not. You task me, Rone...you task me!

Yeah, I had heard that as well. That was actually one of the main reasons I got my Red Cross certifications in CPR and first aid.
I'm halfway through the GenCon podcasts. My poor, easily distracted brain was having trouble processing the interviews and the incidental discussions at the same time. I need to find another brain so it can deal with superfluous stuff.
Who came up with Jason's theme? That was very funny.

Isn't that covered under most states' Good Samaritan laws?

Sorry for the over here over thereness, taig. The interviews are more clearly delineated in the later episodes, but early on we wanted to capture the con's buzzing conversation and festive feel.
We covered Paizo every day, along with Book of Arcane Magic, which was written with PFRPG compatibility.
I composed and recorded the Bulmahn theme. I'm glad you liked it. :) I write and perform all of the thematic compositions on our show.
Enter that contest, folks, and maybe win yourself one of two staff-signed copies of the Pathfinder Core Rulebook!

Listened to the 4 GenCon Special Editions. Nice work Guys. :D
Still haven't had a chance to listen to 29 yet... it's too long to fit on a CD again! So I gotta try and find time to sit here and listen to it.
Damn... what with you guys and the super extra long Pathfinder Episodes! Anyone would think you liked the Paizo guys or somethin'! ;)

Twasn't a complaint against you guys. :)
I've got the last two GenCon podcasts to listen to yet, and I liked the 2nd podcast. I need to finish the other ones before the slew of podcasts this week.
I've also got to think of a way to win that signed PFRPG book.

Most states, yes. However, as far as I know, in New York, one must be certified to be protected. I'm probably wrong, though.

I sincerely swear this is how a certain conversation went down:
Rone: "Almost done with the mix. Episode 29 is going to be another long one."
Ed: "So? The last Pathinfinder episode was long too."
Rone: "Yeah, but I try to keep them under 72 minutes so Craig can fit them on a CD. He likes to listen on the way to work sometimes."
Ed: "Mm."
And yes, I fully admit it. I dig Paizo like an archaeologist on meth with an electric shovel.

Oh, I didn't take it in a bad way, taig, but a heartfelt thanks for your thoughtful reply. We tried something new in the show format for the early Gen Con specials and I wondered if it might not be everyone's cup of tea, so I just wanted to explain, for better or worse, what we were shooting for. I listened yesterday and the first episode did sound a little like being lost (but conversational) in the con's madding crowd. ;)
Good luck with your contest, one and all!

Wow! That makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside. :D
And it's not sometimes... I always listen to you guys in the car. I usually don't get the Podcasts until Saturday morning ('cause that's your friday night when they're released) and the CD burns a hole in my hands waiting until Monday morning when I can finally get some time in the car to listen to it! :)
As a matter of fact, the CD holder with all of you guys Podcasts (AA, OD & Sinister and a couple of RPG Countdowns) on them live under the seat in the car. I actually don't think they've been in the house in 6 months...
