I read it as "If you want to do spell creation, you must spend a minimum of 3 hours on it to get anywhere. No crit fishing!"

Oh. That would make a lot of sense actually.

God damn it, Weird. I really liked that rule too.

The resting period was thought up for a couple reasons. One to make sure people think and vary their schedules, planning ahead for days they can and can't make spells. Two to make sure people aren't just constantly trying to make new spells(which puts a strain on the GMs). And three, to work with the 3 hour rule to hopefully lessen Magia's love of critical failure. But apparently none of that matters anymore, so feel free to mock and/or verbally abuse me for it.

It was awesome~

Unfortunate that I couldn't use my Fatal Fate since it was a spar.

Also, question.

The ability says or targets, if I recall...

Does that mean I can kill everyone next to me if I get lucky?

EDIT: Speaking of ninjas...

If you have the PTU PDF on you, look up the Pass keyword. It's on your Fatal Fate spell, if I recall correctly.

That still seems super problematic unless you plan on having the forum turns handle way less then they did last game.

Like if someone has something important to do. It seems odd that they would be forced to work on something that takes away from it.

Like, a mandate from Jan that players need to work on their magic would make sense perhaps in this game, but that sorta is depending on something very specific and I don't think it make sense to add it to the actual rules.

Of course that said, maybe not, maybe the universe forces magical people to work on self improvement for some reason.

The universe generaly forces Material Mages to work on self improvement for some reason, but I havn't quite gotten to that class yet.

I read it as "If you want to do spell creation, you must spend a minimum of 3 hours on it to get anywhere. No crit fishing!"

Yeah. I will also be adding penalties for actions that don't use enough time, so crit fishing will be a no-no.

God damn it, Weird. I really liked that rule too.

I will not mock or verbally abuse you for that. Your points are valid. I just feel that some parties *coughthisonecough* will need to fish for multiple spells from time to time, especially to get started. I also get a demented pleasure from Magia's love of the crit fail, so there's that. :)

If I have munchkins spending all day, every day working on spells, I will throw some restrictions in.

The PDF for the game I'm apeing mechanics off of. Until we get the target information onto the wiki, you will need to consult that for the time being.

Look at the range. Not only does it have a Melee range, but it also has Pass listed. Lemme grab the PTU PDF...

Quote
Pass: At any point during a Shift, the user may declare a move with the Pass keyword. Once the Move is declared, the user may move forward only in a straight line, for up to 4 meters, moving through any enemies in its path. The user must end in an empty square. The Pass Move attacks all targets in each square it dashes through. Make separate Attack Rolls for each target. The user must end their Shift at the end of the dash.

But especially the existence of the platypus.

Made a revision to the spell creation guideline. The waiting period is now considered "Homebrew Recommended" since I wanted to keep it around on the wiki in some form.

Got around to reading the logs, sounded interesting.

Not sure how you consider that a bad thing. Turning into a clown cyborg was like the only halfway decent thing that happened to my character. It was amazing.

The only time Magia didn't screw your over was during your vassalage with what's-his-face.

Who?

Do you mean Teraphrodite? (Also in case anyone not around for the first game was wondering, we kid a bit. It was not all bad. Just a awful lot of bad.)
