Do I have to pick clothes out of my equipment? I have a sneaking suspicion I have all the tools I need, but I'm naked.

[Akigagak]

It's assumed you have them already.

[Leafsnail]

Six seconds.

So I need to pray for 600 turns when the game starts?

[JoshuaFH]

Six seconds.

So I need to pray for 600 turns when the game starts?

Why would you need to do that?

[Cthulhu]

No.  A cleric's rituals, spell memorization, eating, and the like are usually things that happen "offstage" so to speak.

Turns are only counted when something is going on where you have to keep explicit time(combat, chases, and the like)

[Leafsnail]

Ah, ok, got it now.  So we basically only take turns when we're doing something interesting, and when we're just walking around or resting I suppose we don't start taking turns again till something else interesting happens.

[Cthulhu]

Yeah.

[Enzo]

Yeah, a set of clothing is always assumed. For some reason.

Yeah, you can chat.  Right-clicking the pogs allows you to set its name, and you can add attributes to it to keep track of health, ammo, and the like.  The GM can go in ahead of time and set up a private map that only he can see, and then he can publish parts of it with a simple interface.  It's really the best.

Ah yes, gametable. I think I understand it, but is there a proper tutorial?
I know, it's pretty simple and I probably don't need it, and I figured out the important stuff like the private map bits on my own. I was just wondering about how some things worked. Can other players draw on the public map, or just the host? Can they move pogs? Is there any way to do multiple Z-levels (besides just sticking them on different maps or beside each other)? Is the dice macro list global or personal? I just figure I should get this all straight beforehand.

[Cthulhu]

As far as I know there are no Z-levels.  I would just put the levels next to each other on the grid, and move the pogs between them.  Anyone can do anything except see another player's private map.  GM is an arbitrary title assigned and enforced by the players.  The dice macro list is personal.

[Leafsnail]

Yeah, that was what I was thinking about pogs.  I suppose it's supposed to be like the boardgame only online, so I guess you'll just "publish" the private parts of the map when we arrive in the appropriate areas.  If the dice macro list is personal rather than global, I may be a bit slow rolling, since I'll probably forget which dice I'm supposed to be rolling for some actions.

[Cthulhu]

You should host a server, Kinseti, so we can all get acquainted with commands and stuff.

Also, if you want to make your own pogs for monsters and the like, I can tell you, but it takes a while.

[Rooster]

Yeah, I just downloaded Gametable and I don't know much.
How do I join a game?
There are some numbers and stuff in the join command but I don't get the most of it

[Cthulhu]

Until Kinseti hosts one, I'll put mine up.

[Rooster]

For some reason it gives me a "disconnected" at the bottom of the screen

[Cthulhu]

Yeah, my ports probably aren't set up right.  Eh.
