165xp each.

How much xp does everyone have now?

By the way, we'll probably be getting rid of the framework soon.  Everything we put into it makes it less stable.  By level five or six it's probably not even going to work anymore.

I'm going to work on adding stuff to the base framework to make it easier to use quickly, but you can probably expect combat to slow down significantly.

If anything that'll be better.  Now that you have to keep track of everything, there's less chance of bonuses and numbers getting lost into the ether, and since you'll have to say "I'm using x ability," there'll be better opportunities for using interrupts.

Also, if no major plot things happen after you've finished your adventure in Thurgim, what do you plan to do?  Something about visiting the orcs or something?

[King_of_the_weasels]

I don't even remember what's going on with the orcs anyway.

Droogh got a vision of his tribe or something like that. I predict that he will be attempting to take control.

And yeah, it's really tough to use interrupts when the framework rolls attack and damage simultaneously.

[Cthulhu]

Bad news.  I've been thinking and I'm not sure I can keep up two sessions a week, especially so close together, without the framework.  It takes longer to do stuff without it and it's too much work to do two sessions so close together, especially with a different game having a session the day after the second. 

We do need to get rid of the framework though.  I don't think it was made for running entire campaigns in.  Sleep broke, abilities are getting fixed and going back to being broke, bonuses and such are disappearing.  It's not good for the size of campaign we're doing.

I think we're gonna have to go to just Fridays again.  To make up for it I'll try to spend more time in that session (4 hours would be a good time, we've done that a few times, if people can make that kind of time commitment)

[Sirus]

I can easily make that time. Shame about fewer times a week though.

I'm down with the extra long session on friday (which is saturday for me on the other side of the world), and it is a shame about the extra session not happening, but whatever works for you man.

I agree with the framework needing improvements, so I'm fine with it not being used. I will just have to use custom made macros or something, so it's cool. And I agree with Sirus with interrupts being a lot easier to use, since now we wont have to adjust health after the framework rolled damage and status effects etc. I still reckon that having a visual representation is awesome, and being able to draw zones and have visual reminders of buffs and penalties on characters is sweet. It's just remembering about what powers and item powers we have available that is tricky, so I'll probably just have to make codeless macros with names on them to remind me or something.

Hopefully in future versions, this sort of thing wont happen too often.

EDIT: I have 2890xp, with 3750 to reach in order to level up.

[Zako]

Double post to ask if we are on later.

[Cthulhu]

There are still icons for status effects.  There are also no more future versions, the framework is no longer being updated (part of the problem)

We aren't, sorry. 

[King_of_the_weasels]

Can't we just get rid of the dwarf?  Since I've never had problems with MY moves on the framework.

[Sirus]

I take offense to that. My framework works perfectly fine if I remember to subtract 1 damage on the abilities that don't affect health, like the Rune of Mending's defense boost.

Besides, considering how often I use my heals, you guys wouldn't last two fights without me

[Criptfeind]

Yeah. Lets just ignore that since it make no sense since the issues are what is going to happen, not what has happened.

Is there a game today? Or next Friday?

[Cthulhu]

Next Friday, and only Friday from now on.

[Fortis]

Just so you know, next friday is Good Friday. I don't think I can make it if it's on friday.

EDIT: Then again, I looked up the service times, and it doesn't start until 7:00. If the session starts on time, I should have four to four and a half hours. If the session starts on time that is.

[Zako]

We on later? If so, I will probably have to leave early, due to goddamn good friday closing down the uni, despite them being open every other public holiday. It makes no sense dammit!

Anyway, I will probably have to leave at around 3 - 4 hours in. Just so you know.

[Cthulhu]

Unless everyone suddenly finds Jesus and goes to Good Friday services at 5:00, yes, we're doing it on time.
