Hello. I disappeared. This disappearance has an explanation. The explanation is my innate power of procrastination and 6 exams in a 2 week period. This is the first time I have been on the paizo forums for about a month. Installed one of those programs that limits your internet use to a few pages (in this case wolfram alpha and my course websites) and then got my house mate to change the password to unlock it and not tell me. They only gave me the password yesterday. It has been a fun month.
If I've been replaced in all the games I disappeared from I totally understand, I feel really bad about up and vanishing. Came back to explain where I went really.
welcome back grmnbln!
I just sunk a kitchen knive about 1cm into my right index finger, not too bad it seems, i can move it and definatly still feel it, but my own bandages are quite a hindrance to typing and I guess the ones the doctor will replace the with will not be much better - my post count might slow a bit for a few day (or might at least be riddled with typos or abbreviations.).
If people would prefer I backed out of Riddles for Corvax to step back in I'm cool with that - don't want to un-necessarily overload the party with too many.
Nah don't do that. If the the party gets too overloaded with people Corvax can wander off to the nearest tavern (provided he can get off the island) and disappear into a haze of alcohol. Only fair really, I'm the one who vanished and had to be replaced after all. And curses on the heart of pulp falling over thing, it was rather slow but I did enjoy it.
At least I managed not to hit anything important but the bone - and that didn't get hurt, and since it is a finger and not a toe it shouldn't take that long to heal :-)
...four edits to remove the worst typos...
But they charge like 70 dollars shipping...I guess it's about 10 dollars shipping if you do it via USPS. Anyone willing to help me and buy it and send it to Germany?
I could send you the money it costs (item + normal shipping to you + shipping to me) via Paypal.
No idea of actual marks yet but they seemed to go well.
The only one that may end up being subpar is Quantum Mechanics, had a complete brain fart on one of the questions which may have cost me about 10-20%. All the others went dandy though.
Galaxies was just a case of brain dumping all the things I'd revised for the course into the exam paper, not much thought or any complex maths involved really.
Waves was quite tough in places just because some of matrices involved were unpleasant.
Photonics exam was part memory and part calculation but nothing too taxing.
Energy and the environment is pretty much a doss course, a mix of a level physics and geography and the exam lived up to expectations and was super simple.
Linear algebra again not hard, I had done so many practice questions and past papers by the time I did the exam that I could answer most of the questions with out even really thinking about it.
I took some of those courses many years ago, but only 1-2 per quarter, not all at once. Ouch. And I remember Waves and Vibrations - I still have nightmares about the equations in that course.
Zyren, I would be willing to help you out with your ordering. Please email me a list of what you want ordered and your mailing address and I will see to it.
I have ordered Faith of Sigmar. It will probably arrive sometime early next week. Once I get it, I will ship it forward. I will let you know the cost once I send it off.
Bildung x 20 Punkte auf Fertigkeiten die beim Beruf aufgelistet sind, Intelligenz x 10 auf beliebige Fertigkeiten (sollen Hobby Fertigkeiten sein, daher erlaube ich nur in Ausnahmefällen dies auch noch auf Berufsfertigkeiten zu verteilen) außer auf Cthulhu Mythos/Mythoswissen (Übersetzung variiert je nach Edition). Die Grundchance wird dazuaddiert, aber der Maximalwert bleibt bei 99%
Stimmt, CoC / RRPG ist regeltechnisch extrem einfach. Außerdem erkennt man auch ohne Rollenspielerfahrung ziemlich direkt, was ein Charakter kann, weil alle Fähigkeiten in Prozentwerten ausgedrückt sind, das macht das Spiel ideal für OneShots und als Einsteigersystem, für die klassische Cthulhu Ermittlergeschichte hat es außerdem den Vorteil, das man gar nicht in die Versuchung geführt wird, den Spielern zu viel 'Arbeit' durch erwürfelte Erfolge abzunehmen
Wenn das Spiel allerdings in eine kampfintensivere Richtung abdriftet als für CoC üblich, was z.B. bei Delta Green oder in Cthulhu Mittelalter Spielen leicht passieren kann, sind meine Gruppen bei dem System oft angeeckt (und das nicht wegen der sehr hohen Todesrate).
Deswegen spiele ich meine Delta Green Runde z.Zt. mit den alten (und von mier heißgeliebten) Alternity Regeln.
Kennst du ein COC 1X1 Abenteuer? Einer meiner Spieler würde gerne mal reinschnuppern. Am besten online zum Runterladen, er will nämlich morgen vorbeikommen - oder kennst du eines, was man einfach mit einem Spieler machen kann?
DieEinsteigerabenteuer kann man beide denke ich gut auch mit nur einem Spieler spielen, du solltest aber vermutlich einen NSC (Ehefrau, Verlobte, Verwandschaft o.ä, zur zusätzlichen Motivation und zur atmosphärischen Interaktion führen. Die Solo bzw. Solo und Gruppenabenteuer die du hier findest habe ich noch nicht gespielt, aber ich schätze sie sollten mit ein bischen Arbeit (du hast ja noch eine ganze Nacht Zeit ;-) ) auch gut verwenden lassen.
Die Abenteuerbände sind alle etwas lang und vermutlich auch etwas schwierig, die im Spielleiterhandbuch habe ich gerade nicht mehr gut genug im Gedächtnis.
I think that DMZZ forgot to buy the marshmallows. However, I do have an everfull decanter of Microbrew and we have all the remnants of that Stay Puft Marshmallow Man elemental lying around.
Bree enters carrying a large pillowcase full of chocolate, graham crackers and marshmallows. After passing them around to the group and stoking the fire she curls up against a large rock and takes out a book entitled Globalization and Change in Fifteen Cultures: Born in One World, Living in Another and begins to read the second chapter, "2/Change in the Lives of a Brazilian Indigenous People: To Pluck eyelashes (or Not?) among the Canela".
After a page and a half, she flips back to the front cover, then looks at a piece of parchment laying to her side. "Grrrr. Wrong book. Why does this teacher insist on identifying the books only by the authors last name and not the title..." a few more grumbles escape her lips as she shifts the books around in her backpack and pulls out yet another book. She opens Culture and Change: An Introduction to the second chapter "Culture Context" and begins reading once more.
Seeing Tirion looking over her shoulder, she shoves the first book into his hands.
