Ooo, just found another item that survived the latest cull!


My item vs. improperly worn article of clothing.

only you can prevent joke items from making top 32

;)

Okay this isn't just a joke item it's a d**k joke item and yes I'm still going to upvote it... well played

RPG Superstar Season 9 Top 32 , Marathon Voter Season 6, Marathon Voter Season 7, Champion Voter Season 8, Marathon Voter Season 9 aka GM_Solspiral

and again... people I will only down vote the joke item if your item is actually better

RPG Superstar Season 9 Top 32 , Marathon Voter Season 6, Marathon Voter Season 7, Champion Voter Season 8, Marathon Voter Season 9 aka GM_Solspiral

Okay seriously you're stalking me... well this time your competition is better but 2 out of 3 ain't bad.

This inspired me to listen to THIS.

You and I, we workshopped together little item.

I wish I had more time with you. Such a neat little effect but it's easy to get lost in passive voice and strange word choice.

Congrats on coming this far!

Grand Lodge Marathon Voter Season 9

Hmm it's the second time I've seen you and I still wonder if you've heard of mithral.

Marathon Voter Season 8, Marathon Voter Season 9

Dear Sword,

You come dangerously close to drawing too much inspiration from a League of Legends character.

I won't send a report email, but I won't vote for you either.

Dedicated Voter Season 9

Phantasms vs Ghosts aaaannnnddd fight.

And I see you've read Moby Dick. Not going to report you but boy are you skirting that line.

It's a small thing that I shouldn't be concerned about...and I'm upvoting you anyway, but it will drive me nuts again next time I see you.

That could describe my entry. I chose what I did purely because the name fit more thematically, even though a lower level spell's mechanics were a better fit.

I doubt whatever your talking about actually is my entry, b
just offering a potential explanation.

Resist the urge to dance on the line of talking about your item, clarifying something about your item is pretty much strictly against the rules.

This is vague enough probably

I'm gonna delete it. Hopefully that gets rid of your quoted text.

The good news is there are at least 3 items my text can apply too, but one bothers me on that point more than the other two.

RPG Superstar Season 9 Top 32 , Marathon Voter Season 6, Marathon Voter Season 7, Champion Voter Season 8, Marathon Voter Season 9 aka GM_Solspiral

facepalm: you are such a good good item with such a terrible name. You still get a vote.

This makes me look forward to the "Season 9: The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly" thread. ^.^

People at Paizo have also read Moby Dick, which is why we have this. Besides, it's in the public domain, so it's fair game.

Snark rescinded, (though it got my vote anyway) too late to delete though

Just a reminder, some of the obvious IP infringement are of IP that are unoriginal to start with, so it may not be thief.

Marathon Voter Season 6, Marathon Voter Season 7, Marathon Voter Season 8, Marathon Voter Season 9

Oh item of excessively convoluted mechanics and powerful brokenness, you just made me vote for a joke item. Sad Sad day.

runes vs charges, no one wins.

Oh Item that will effectively produce infinite wealth... Just No.

RPG Superstar 2015 Top 16 , Marathon Voter Season 8, Dedicated Voter Season 9 aka dien

....huh? *peers at item* You... what... why would I want...

I can't help but feel this one is some sort of joke reference or IP thing that I am not familiar with. I have no idea why I, or anyone, would spend that much gold on something whose primary feature appears to be an odd quasi-drawback.

RPG Superstar 2015 Top 16 , Marathon Voter Season 8, Dedicated Voter Season 9 aka dien

Iiiiii like this item alright but the last line bamboozles me because it seems like an odd restriction to throw if the benefit of your item would, specifically, let you get around that. I was gonna vote for you but now I gotta reconsider your competition. :(

RPG Superstar 2009 Top 16, 2012 Top 32 , Marathon Voter Season 6, Marathon Voter Season 7, Marathon Voter Season 8, Marathon Voter Season 9 aka Epic Meepo

Soooo many items this year could have been salvaged if their visuals weren't so derpy looking. Why can't your item let me do the coolest mechanical thing in the history of the game without covering me in purple polka dots and surrounding me in an aura of continuous circus clown music?

I'm thinking it will be my opening post in this year's joke item thread.


*sigh* I just voted for a rogue-in-a-can. I feel dirty.

If the word was misspelled once I'd think it was just a typo. But it's misspelled the same way twice.

Which reminds me - all you Word users... (probably similar options in other word processing software)

Select ALL your item text...
Click the review tab/menu...
Click the language option/drop-down...
Click Set Proofing Language...

Set to US English for spelling and grammar...

(this sets the checking temporarily for that document and does not set it globally, so will not affect your normal settings)

BEWARE red squiggles in the entry box, the entry box in your browser uses your local globalisation, so for example, a chrome user in the UK will see spell checks in UK English and not US English.

When writing anything for gaming companies, the majority of companies use US English as the standard and not UK English. Do check this though when working as a freelancer.

US English example : Armour is wrong, Armor is right.

Always spell check with a US English setting, it will save you a lot of grief.

When I equip this item completely, I lose a good ability that I had when equipping partly. I foresee PCs staying partly equipped and then using some actions in combat to finish equipping the item. And I already have enough non-sensical PC actions with the official rules :-(

Liberty's Edge Star Voter Season 8, Dedicated Voter Season 9

You do what ?

Cannot downvote fast enough

That is enough. How come everyone else is singing the praises of the post-3rd cull items while I upvote items that should have sunk one or two culls ago ?

Liberty's Edge Star Voter Season 8, Dedicated Voter Season 9

Your description should have stopped 3 lines ago. There is such a thing as overdoing it.

The other item shows that there is also such a thing as underdoing it :-(

Grand Lodge

Why yes it is appropriate I should get to vote on a bow and arrow simultaneously. But bow you have two problems, 1 your price puts you into a range where there is an amazing one already on the books and 2 you're situationally OP, arrow you are a trick-pony (that frankly I don't need the help with). So, bow it is at least it's a new trick.

Problem: Still stuck voting for the terribad items from day 1.

Solution: Stop voting.

Liberty's Edge Star Voter Season 8, Dedicated Voter Season 9

This ability is interesting and well thought in its crunch. I do not care much for the rest of the item, but that is enough to upvote you.

With zero regrets as you are giving me the opportunity to at last downvote that item over there which is very much of the players vs GM's mindset IMO but well-crafted enough that I had to upvote it several times before :-/

Though my eyes are bleeding and my brain melting, I will do my duty.

The next Cull must come.
