Might have been right on the edge there a couple times Jimmy, please keep forum guidelines in mind when posting.  That was pretty damn amusing tho'.

Just a little innuendo alongside totally legitimate Pathfinder build advice. Nothing intentionally offensive or flame-baiting.

After all, I wouldn't want to get cocky and consider myself some kind of master baiter.

Knock on wood.

I FINALLY understand how to run Dusk City Outlaws competently enough to run a game.

I think I'll do a play by post oneshot as I wait for the rules to be completely finished.

I am starting a pathfinder game called Sanguine Lux, set in a world of my own creation.  It's a level 3 campaign which starts you off as a prisoner in an arena, wrongfully abducted from your home in the night and set to fight against others in a life and death struggle.  Work with your fellow prisoners to win or escape the tournament so that you might seek answers and revenge!

It will be a weekly run game using roll20, and the story I have in mind should take at least 12-16 sessions to finish.  After that I will be continuing to use the world, and most likely the same characters can continue on to the next ark.  I look forwards to people joining as this is something I've been working on for quite a few months now!

aaaaa roll20

[kilakan]

What's wrong with roll20?  If there's something better I am not aware of for weekly over the internet games I'd love to know.

Yeah my group's been using Roll20 for years now, it's lovely.  The built-in video and sound was pretty bad... like 4 years ago, when we started...  So we just use Skype (or briefly Teamspeak).  The stuff like importing images, playing music, and making rolls are pretty great.

Some of us use macros for common rolls, which is really easy to set up.  Theoretically it can pull data from tokens for modifiers and stuff, but I only really used that on one particularly math-y DND character.  It's nice to have the option, anyway.

Bonus:  Drawing random stuff on the map if a turn goes on too long

I don't tihnk people on bay12 like taking time out of their schedule to use it.I can't put away time for roll20, especially since every game tends to be saturday afternoons

[kilakan]

Fair enough i guess, figured I'd post here since this is my primary community.  Running it on roll20 cause I have a friend who I've played with for years that is gonna be in it but some new players would be nice.  Should of mentioned that the game would be on Tuesday's at 4:00pm est

I actually like roll20, but unless a game is on the weekend and relatively early in the afternoon I simply can't ever guarantee being able to attend sessions.

Roll20 once ran into my room brandishing a machete, swinging, and screaming obscenities.

Might have been a dream though.

I've had glitches in Roll20 but even if I multiplied the negatives of Roll20 there isn't anything that comes close to it in terms of quality and usability.

One of the only programs that could have competed with Roll20 is far too expensive (it needed to have GM and Player versions) and far too difficult to modify for the average user.
