When I first heard of it, I thought it was IT Man.
Let's just say, I'm gravely disappointed. He didn't reinstall anything.
Reminds me of when I read Stephen King's book "IT". I was so confused. I thought it was about a computer tech going on a rampage, but instead it was just a weird clown.

Whoa.
Apparently I have a new superpower.
I was hoping for lightning out my fingertips...

I find myself seeing a set up immediately going down hill and resetting a lot. One thing that has been working that got me my last two wins was getting something that gives me artifact and then playing the 4 focus that removes one a turn so the artifact negates that. The last boss for 13 I had 15 focus which pretty well means you win with defect.

And no, I can't climb lamp posts.
I did sign up for Spartan Sprint on 28 March 2020. I expect I will STILL fall off the monkey bars and end up doing burpees, despite my practice as the bars I practice on are waaay easier then other monkey bars. On a good day I can go one direction, turn on the bars, and go the other way, doing different hands on each bar.

            Well the name Vidmaster I've had since I was 13. It was a play on Kid Vid which was from a little kids cartoon. Didn't really watch the cartoon but I liked the word. I think it was short for Video. The 7 is a secret Easter egg that other posters have managed to find previous iterations of Vidmaster.

            Yeah I am no good what so ever at monkey bars.
I don't know. I seem to fare worse on monkey bars should I have been lifting weights the day before. It may be a still tired thing etc. Anyway I'm not the right kind of build for monkey bars. Too stocky, a bit on the heavy side(gained some weight in the hols =().
I'm a bit odd shaped actually. Like rather bulky rather then slender. I never got stick skinny you know.
But when it comes to feats of strength then yes I lift quite a bit more then people might expect of my small size.

            So character for my home game are all lvl 4 now (the all 18's game) I got to say they pack a punch to I can throw cr 8's at them and they can handle it. It kind of impressive how much of a power bump it gave more so then you would think. I'm gonna start going with numbers to challenge them.
Some classes like melee classes and monks need high stats in the physical characteristics just to function properly. A wizard only needs int, and maybe Dex and con. High attribute scores I think benefit melee classes more.

I kind of agree. The biggest difference I've noticed is that that 18 con really help keep them alive vrs things that would normally kill them outright. heck just them having to -18 before they die makes a huge difference. some other things. Mithrel armor is super popular and no one is bothering with heavy armor at all naturally.
my more veteran players are taking advantage of the stats with class combos that normally wouldn't work to well or just classes that need a few stats. The brawler is benefiting probably the most. The sorcerer is basically taking advantage of it by having some back up melee stuff for when she doesn't want to burn a spell slot. Both the rogues are loving it. all their skill checks are the bomb. blood rager it's hard to see a real advantage to it yet but I think when he really starts getting spells it will be more noticeable. The one who seems to be benefiting from it the least is the kineticist. Like I feel like he was gonna have the high dex and high con and nothing else seems to effect him really. Although he has picked up some melee options for his kinetic stuff.
One of my players has a back up option I'm kind of dreading. They want to do a multiclassed zen archer monk/ archer paladin. The build looks ridiculous. The saves over the top. I'm kind of afraid of killing them because I know how devastating that will be.

            Just dip 2 in paladin for the saves then zen archer all the way. I hope you didn't allow cyclonic bows or you could give the other party members something to do by dropping them in the middle of a hurricane.
I might try monstrous physique/beast shape line entertainment as the sorc with 18 in all stars. Then I can really go animal on people.

I think they were talking about the divine hunter archtype for the paladin. which I know replaces heavy armor with precise shot and you divine bond a bow I would say I wouldn't go higher then 5 with the paladin part but maybe she sees more then I do. The smite evil with a 18 charisma. of course charisma to all saves plus monks already awesome saves.
It's almost as good as my third edition half celestial unicorn paladin concept.

Well we were on an airship trying to chase an enemy airship, then our engines started losing power after some noise was coming from the engine room. We went to investigate, heard more noises and suspected sabotage. So since we saw nothing, the dragon disciple did sense something and thought the best way to deal with the saboteurs was to cast a fireball in the engine room to fry them. He's got 8 wis so...
And his super big empowered fireball blew a hole in the ships Hull and we started crashing. Great decision making skills lol? =P

Reminds me of the Deadlands game where I played a mad scientist. He wound up on top of a zeppelin, with 98 sticks of dynamite in several bandoliers strapped to his chest.
It ended about how you'd expect.
Everyone had tea and cucumber sandwiches, then he died peacefully in his sleep decades later?

Someone was not familiar with the Hindenburg.
But now probably can imagine it fairly well.

I suspect the player is actually since he's in the events organization job and reads up on all kinds of trivia. But he was RPing a low wis character that way. That's also the group that decided to pee on a flaming book to put out the fire.

            Also I finally hit the gym today after a long hiatus(sick). I'm still sick and weights were kinda crap,especially the upper body presses. Dropped to 25 kg on chest press, had to take 2 breaks on the last 2 sets of 8 reps on the 22.5 kg overhead press. Even for the heaviest deadlift weighs for 65 kg on last set of 8 reps, I had to take a break and the front squats felt harder.
I did one way on monkey bars, turned then went the other way before hitting the gym. I look forward to the day where I can turn another loop on the monkey bars.

I'm parsing HTML with sed and awk. It would be 10,000x's
quicker using an editor, but I just really want to do it this way.
Because I have to learn sed and awk as I'm doing it.It's all about priorities.
Interesting choice of tools. I would've expected the use of LEX and YACC, but that's just me. Let us know how it goes.
