Voters' Incessant Ramble

[Monica Marlowe]

Well that item makes me want to buy ranks in that profession!

[Saint Caleth]

Hey, two items that have the exact same made-up word in the name. Together at last.

Ah, my nemesis. An item which is bizarrely similar to and yet possibly better than my entry.

SC, I've seen the same thing for my item. Twice. It got my vote both times. I liked it.

[pH unbalanced]

Two of my favorite items paired against each other. I hate it when that happens.

Two people made up the same word, how weird.

To be fair, given what the items do it is a fairly obvious word to make up for the name.

[Jr. Annalist]

No one mentioned that one was going to be educational too...

[pH unbalanced]

I appreciate most of the attempts at humor, but most of them fall flat. That's such a risky way to go.

[pH unbalanced]

Why would I put that in my ear?

[Eric Morton]

Hmmm. I've finally caught up with this thread, and it seems that my item falls into at least one category people are consistently down-voting and at least one category people are consistently up-voting. I guess I'll have to hope it falls more strongly into the latter.

[Jr. Annalist]

It's my first year -- I'm really impressed by how smoothly the voting system works.

I keep reading "WORDS" as the last word in the item descriptions for the ones where the -# are at the end of the previous line though!

[pH unbalanced]

Wow, I just came across an interesting and intricate item that shows a fair bit of system mastery -- for a system other than Pathfinder.

Such a shame.

Has anyone been gathering data on the item costs? It seems like there are an inordinate number of items that are way above even the metropolis purchase limit - even dropping the million-plus items, that would be kind of limiting for a GM, as far as managing party wealth...

I find myself voting for affordable items that are slightly less cool, simply because I could actually see them in play, instead of the awesome item that no one could ever buy or whose base price would take six months to a year to craft.

Out of 438 items:

Average cost: 14,105 gp
Median cost: 6,500 gp
Mode cost: 6,000 gp

Here's graphs of the costs of all items and omitting the two most costly items I've seen

[Heroic bartender]

Uahah, just saw an Item which has to be intentionally troll.
I mean internet troll, not the cool green things hitting you with clubs.

Hah! Me too!

[PbemDM]

Saw my item (finally), judged as objectively as possible, and voted for me. Nice.

[Feros]

I saw two spells-in-a-can side by side that used the exact same spell for their mechanic(!) What was really cool about it was how completely opposite they were to each other in tone, visual, and concept. Loved it!

50 words item, created without spells.

I would honestly buy that item on literally every character that I ever made ass soon as they could afford it. Unfortunately, I'm pretty sure that my DM would take it away from me within one or two encounters

[pH unbalanced]

Frost vs Frosting

[The White]

Hmm.. I actually have to vote for one of the socketable items

[TimsterMon]

I really wish I didn't have to find out first hand about the colourful dung everyone's been talking about, sigh...

[Feros]

New Item! New Item! I'm so excited I could plotz!

[Eric Morton]

There we go. I can finally check the 50-word item off my list of things to see.

[The White]

Why are there so may items with the title "Item, Magic" instead of "Magic Item"?

[michael patrick]

Goggles versus Goggles

[The White]

Oh god. I don't know how I pick between these two. I'd love to put the first one inside the second one and watch it run around, I need a "combine item" button

[pH unbalanced]

I sometimes forget a baldric is an actual item, and not just a character from Black Adder.

I'm glad I'm not the only one. :)

^*bling*^

[Eric Morton]

And there's the beard item. Check.

[pH unbalanced]

Is a woman's eyeball a different size?

[michael patrick]

Scarf vs Scarf...haha

Have a look at your Core Rulebook. I especially recommend Boat, Folding; Boots, Winged; Feather Token, XXXX; Ioun Stone, XXXX; etc. There is precedence for it.

[pH unbalanced]

Your item was well put together, but it creeped me out too much for me to vote for it. I mean *seriously* creeped me out. Those three words shouldn't ever go together.

[Eric Morton]

And the infamous "last paragraph that ruins a perfectly good item" strikes again.

[mln84]

To heck with voter badges- there should be a forum badge for those who have caught up on this thread.

In other news, still missing the really expensive item and the husband/wife item. Thought I had that one on my last pairing, based on the name, but it turns out it was spellcaster/familiar, not husband/wife.

[pH unbalanced]

Apology accepted.

[Eric Morton]

Three gloves!

Yea but those are generally used for items that are essentially the same as each other with a slight variance. Feather Tokens and Iuon Stones are a class of item with specific sub-items. The ones that I have been seeing (mostly) don't hold to that

[Eric Hindley]

Hello item. That's a great idea. A great idea I submitted 3 years ago. It went over really well, but I added some visuals. I hope you do well.

[Eric Morton]

Okay, I admit it. Now I'm just posting because I should be close to close to getting a Dedicated Voter tag and I want to make sure I didn't miscount.

You don't need to you could just look at you profile page.

Or check an old post, it will change when you get new tag.

[Eric Morton]

Should be close to Dedicated now.

[Eric Morton]

Should be really close.

Edit: Nope. 16 is not 76. I've got a ways yet to go.

Neither of which adds to the post count of this massive thread... :P

Don't think it needs, help.

Hey look, a new item that I actually want to keep. Good job whoever you are
