Net covers shieldShield-net-scissors-lizard-Spock?
I explained the swashbuckler game of shield, net, rapier earlier...
I am getting the ominous feeling that my item was too boring for anyone to like, and only survived the cull due to impeccable formatting...
I don't think I'm ever going to reach dedicated voter.

Which ones? The staff of aspects has a cost of 19,100 gp and a price of 37,600, which is 600 gp less than double the cost (for both ends). The same differential occurs in the staff of authority. And the staff of curses...In fact, if you look at the pricing of staves in the PRD, they do not include a masterwork staff difference between the Cost and Price. That suggests that they are not masterwork.Except that if you look at the pricing of Staves that can be used as magic weapons, they have the Cost and Price added for the weapon enchantment bonus, but nothing for masterwork.
That implies to me that they get Masterwork for free.
OK, I see what I was thinking when I was reverse-engineering staff costs to try and figure out if MW was included. With the Staff of Aspects (which was the example I used because it was the first staff alphabetically that had a weapon enhancement) MW is not included in the Price, but strangely it is included in the Cost.
Which is to say I calculated the Price without MW:
Aspect of the Wolf = 6000 (400 x 5 x 9 / 3)
Aspect of the Stag = 5400 (300 x 4 x 9 / 2)
Aspect of the Bear = 3600 (200 x 2 x 9)
Aspect of the Falcon = 1800 (200 x 1 x 9)
First End +1 Weapon = 1000
Second End +1 Weapon = 1000
Total Cost = 18,800
Double Cost = Price = 37,600
And it matched the price in the book, so I didn't look any further.
But as you've pointed out, that's not the listed cost: the listed cost is 19,100: half the price +300. Of course, that's wrong, too, because it should have MW on both ends, so I would have expected Cost 19,400, and then Price 38,200.
Does that make sense?
I thought I'd double-checked that theory against one other staff, but maybe not. There are very few other straightforwardly priced staves with weapon enhancements (most also have another ability that is harder to price).
Anyway, now I'm just not sure whether MW cost should be added, whereas before I was completely sure that it shouldn't be. Sigh.
So far I've seen... not a lot of rings, weirdly. A ton of them seem to have gotten culled.
I saw a staff-rod that was also worn as a ring while gripped, and could be used as brass knuckles.
Then I woke up. I need to get real sleep.
Oh nooooo time is running out to make 5K. :(
I'm pretty sure a quarterstaff can't be masterwork only on one end. Some other double weapons maybe, but I would be surprised even with those.
I'm disappointed that I didn't start my keep list sooner as some of the artifacts that I saw pre-cull are long gone.
Well, due unexpected illness and important exams and whatnot, I can look in peace at the champion voter and think... "some other year. Maybe."
Enjoying the post-cull items, but that's to be expected, I guess. Haven't seen mine, but I feel peaceful about it. By now, I've seen enough items that I would enjoy seeing in the top 32.
Oh, who am I kidding as much time as I can manage up to the deadline later today shall be spent voting until I see my own item. Or resign myself to looking at the list. Hmm. Oh well.
Still, I have seen a few items that I would have THOUGHT to have been culled. Someone must like these things a lot more than I do. Not many of them, but then taste is individual.
Edit: Well, huh, by my count that was over 1000 votes. Guess I'll give it a dozen more and an hour to see if it changes it's mind.
It has effect radius of how much?
It's not much... It does not even extend beyond your square...
I will be posting a finalized item stats tally after voting is done today. My earlier entry was based on quick reading and analysis to allow me to keep my voting count running along. This new one is done with more careful diligence.
Don't expect a radical change in any numbers; all differences were because of lack of clarity in the writing or obscure weapons and armor. The snapshot from early in is still a big indicator.

OK, sick with flu and tired. So I'm done voting early today. See you all on the morrow when we push to the finish line. Good night!"Sleep when you're dead" I believe is what you told me. Get some rest, drink plenty of fluids, take care of yourself.
Sleep? I didn't sleep. Dozed a bit maybe. But this bug is interfering with my sleep patterns royally.
I am now using medication (sweet, wonderful drugs!) that is helping alleviate the more nasty symptoms. And they have opened up a whole new world! Did you know there is a whole rainbow of different colours between chartreuse and yellow green? :D

I just voted for your item. Yes yours.
I just voted for your item. Yes yours.
*fist pumps* Yesssss!
All right, I've realized now that I can't not vote for this ring! It is my number 1 Ring!!!
Just a guess but you're launching it to your number 1?
Two upper middling short swords duel it out...
One has a strong visual but feels mechanically incomplete against a cool name and strong mechanics but a weak description... yep second one won.
Two rods I've disliked got a reread going against one another.
Still disliked the one on the left the one on the right changed my mind on reread...
Staff of Pharasma vs Armor of Pharasma!
I'll vote for Pharasma!
2 rings but one of them puts this song in my head despite having nothing to do with robot unicorns
Expensive and almost over the top evil, but still creative gets the vote in this match up.
Voted for my item again. I have been fortunate in that there has been no conscience problems with this act this year...so far.
OK, I get your utility and the unique approach you took. If not for the silly visual this item comes with, I'd vote for you more often.
I am dissapoint! Internet outage meant no last minute scrambling for the next tag....
Done voting for right now. Can't take it anymore. Brain is fried. Need a break.

When it comes right down to it, I'll down-vote the grotesque almost every time.
Alright.
I've voted as much as I can and still haven't hit Champion. All my shenanigans and machinations are set or played. The die is cast.
If I don't win, I blame the Stonecutters.
come one ladies and gents
let's hit 5k
Just 503 more... If we post non-stop we can make it!
Almost there!
;-)
