Voters' Incessant Ramble

"This Pathfinder session is boring. Let's play another game."

[Magical_Beast]

So this item makes it work like in video games. Great.

[Andrew Marlowe]

I do not think that word means what you think it means. Sadly it's a pretty simple word.

[Maurice de Mare]

Greater Major Wrists Item

BAM, your dead

[Zerri]

This item is giving me an itch...

[Mike Welham]

Where's the Love in an Elevator wondrous item?

[Manimal]

Ooo...I like the item and imagery, but for that low a price, two size categories is far too powerful.

Was there whoop ass in it? Because I've seen that one.

[Johnny Jim-Jon]

haha "feted" ≠ "fetid"

[Maurice de Mare]

retraining sucks, actions have consequences, deal with it!

Off topic:

My 16 yr old just came up to me with a tidbit - pineapples contain an enzyme that dissolves protein. As he said: The snack that eats you back!

I expect a plethora of pineapple based acid items next year!

[Magical_Beast]

So the name implies that it is an X item, but then it is actually a Y item, which has nothing to do with X...

huh?

[frank gori]

2 good items winner goes to the one appropriately priced, sorry fairly cool underpriced item

[Monica Marlowe]

Okay, serious question here - do other parties use this many banners? I have seen no fewer than 3 different types of banners and I cannot think of a single time I have ever seen one in play.

The whoop ass item made me lose it. :)

[Mike Welham]

So many inappropriate places to wear the third item that normally comes in pairs.

[GeneticDrift]

nice hands slot item, i thought it would be bad based on the name.

edit: an other good item (head slot)! wow, it should do more but it is nice.

It's a stinky decay party!

Nope, who uses flags?

I've played in PFS games where one person had a banner. He forgot to apply the banner's effects one time, so, I'd say he wasn't exactly used to playing with a banner.

[Bobson]

Someone is apparently in love with the letter M.

[Garrick Williams]

They sound uncomfortable to wear.

[Manimal]

Wait...if the target already has concealment from that type of environment, how does adding more of thay environment reveal him?!

[R Pickard]

There seems to be a small but notable number of entrants who are secretly murderous psychopaths, or at least wish they were.

[Antariuk]

Protip: calling your wondrous item an artifact is bad. Also, that adjective and that adverb really shouldn't be back-to-back in the same sentence, ever.

The party flag is a gold lion rampant on a field of azure, and should never fly upside down, unless the party is in distress.

[Keldan Marr]

Weird how voting raises my confidence in my submission, then ALT-Tabbing back here makes it come crashing back down...

[quibblemuch]

Sweet Groetus, devour these many, many, many items of the form:

"When activated X does Thing 1. Also, N times per day, X does Thing 2, except in leap years, when it does Thing 3, but only [N times Character Level] times per day. When combined with Y, X does (completely unrelated) Thing 4, a maximum of 7 times a week, but no more than once in a 48 hour period. A user of X may forgo all of the preceding options once per day to roll a d20 and do one of the following 20 Things. Doing so uses up all of the charges for a day, but the +2 bonus to Con remains."

Thank you Groetus for smiting those who would make their single item do everything. See you soon.

I got nothin', but apparently there are at least three hopefuls out there. No comment from me on their construction, I just really have no practical experience with them.

[R Pickard]

Boring item, or broken, badly priced item?

Also, wonderous or woundrous item?

Oh, I sure hope not. I am greatly allergic to pineapples.

Cavaliers use banners.

Ooo... that gives me an idea for the Banner of Foretelling that autoflies itself upside down when the party is in imminent danger of TPK!

J'Accuse DQ, J'Accuse!

Still didn't find my item.

I have a samurai in a home game ... still don't use a banner. Used one in a 4e game a friend was running. But not in Pathfinder.

But does it do anything? Our party routinely uses "Surrender Lion", which is actually a lion mini carrying a (recognizable) cocktail national flag in his mouth, which is much funnier in context on the table. :-)

In our gaming groups we joke about the Neon Sign of Near Death -- we have the tremendous, oddly frequent luck of knocking a big bad down to 1-2 hp (i.e., if the PC had only done one more point of damage, the fight would be over. This frequently happens just before the monster's turn so that, since it is still standing, it can still heal itself or kill someone before it falls). We've come to note when such a thing happens by saying the Neon Sign has lit above the creature's head.

It would actually be kind of amusing to stat that out into an item.

"Woundrous". Finally! Truth in advertising!

[Mike Welham]

I'm up to three items that cause me to reflexively vote for the other item. I fear for what happens when any two of them get paired up.

[Andrew Marlowe]

To Whom It May Concern

I voted for your item twice now as it was better than the competition, but I'm not sure why you used that word in the title. You know the one the word that isn't reflected anywhere in the description. Yeah that one. When the top 32 are announced maybe you can explain it.

Thanks

Sincerely
Confused Voter

[Johnny Jim-Jon]

This item is made of a material so rare that it can only be found in one place; you can't even find it in the requirements.

[Pamela Elizabeth]

Wonderous... check
No commas in price/cost... check
Aura strength not matching caster level... check
Spells capitalized... check
Spells not italicized... check
Missing semicolons... check

There's more but I'll stop there.

I filled out a bingo card on this item alone.

[Orcus Of Undeath]

Oh man, I've just seen an item that has such a great idea, but has been very poorly designed.

[frank gori]

Shadow item vs shadow item is it too early to drink?

Although some of the shadow items actually are fairly cool.

[Amy Gillespie]

If you make a dice item, it needs to have six random effects.

[Feros]

The unmentionable item is back...

...and it's forcing me to vote for one of the umbrellas.

*Sigh*

[Treyson]

500 unique items seen and received my Dedicated Voter title in the same 10-minute span.

I've seen some very good items, some pretty terrible ones. And then the jokes. Oh, the jokes.

Haven't seen a poop item so far. It's the best day ever!

[Cthulhudrew]

Descriptive quote that doesn't even accurately describe item. :(
