one day i will tour northeastern Africa, travel through zones with no cellular network coverage at all, see the sights of Egypt and other beautiful places, lose my phone in a river, become lost for three weeks, stumble home after rescue helicopters find me, recover in hospital, then finally visit here, and still find out my consecutive visit spree has not been interrupted.
@Shalvenay Well, warlocks can be quite good, but a Cleric/Warlock is super-MAD, sacrifices both spellcasting and eldritch blast progression, and gains...?
@Miniman -- on a slightly more serious-charopt note, I have to re-enchant all the stat-boosting gear on my NWN druid to give STR as well as WIS so that he's no longer Lomir the Chronically Overloaded Druid
@Miniman -- don't you need 10 levels of your base class to PrC, or can you PrC as soon as you get the other prereqs and then take the remaining levels of your base class later on down the road?
@Miniman -- I think the main reason for the restrictions on Harper Scout/Assassin/Pale Master and Shifter/Red Dragon Disciple are because those classes can create RP problems more than they are simply OP, especially with the former set
It is also worth noting that I am entirely too tired to recall words like portmanteau right now. I just looked at a bowl of leftover broccoli and thought, "I can't eat these green beans."
@Althis Well it is a Dire version of the Legged Cloning Machine. Maybe Dire Cloning Machine Walker? But that could be a walker of dire cloning machines. Dire Walking Cloning Machine?
Althis: If your cloning exceeds critical mass, I may have to enact a curse to banish all clones to the Far Realm or a volcano, whichever seems less horrible.
@Nyoze Yes, well, they are clones, but they are also people (probably, if Althis is a person). I would rather they have the least horrible fate necessary.
Oh. Well, if he's a computer worm, the Far Realm is the only option. There's only so many places you can banish something after all, and that's the place computer worms gotta go.
I can be in certain situations, but no, not usually
I GM most of the time, and this was me going in as a player. One of the players kept correcting everyone on the rules during discussion, which is fine, but they didn't have a good attitude it sounded like.
I'm willing to deviate from the rules if it works with my sim-sense or if there's a clearly broken rule, but I usually am not as keen on breaking the rules for the sake of the narrative
To top it off, the GM had us make characters, and then immediately scrapped most of the stuff. Like burning everyone's SIN and making us move from the places we just paid for.
@Shalvenay Don't do that. Don't give the orc a gender. Now I know it's a male, it's a bother, maybe even a father. How can I mercilessly slaughter it knowing that because of my actions, orc babies will starve? :'(
@Nyoze: :P just wait until you find yourself on the road in the bitter cold and snow, searching desperately for shelter, and a young orcish lad invites you into his family's house for the night
I designate the sheep as my Animal Companion and using all the might of my level 18 druid form, I cast Shapechange (Form of the Dragon) on the sheep with my Distant Spell Link feat.
We had live bats at my library recently but I barely got to see them. I was working the desk, and unbeknownst to us, the program host spent over an hour talking before actually bringing them out. Our programs only usually even last an hour. xD
And other branches with less people got to have the bats hold on to people's shirts. >:I [turns into a green-eyed pixie monster]
@doppelgreener It is very Halloween.
(Which never actually ends. It is never not Halloween. Ever.)
The styles that I like best are the particularly expensive ones, I do not usually go out except to work where I cannot very well goth it up, and makeup is too much effort to do on a daily basis. xD
Australia does not tend to get very expressive with subcultures and even then I don't express myself externally much, but that is one of the subcultures I've gravitated toward in the past.
(I have yet to put up posters. I need to do this. I have some very wonderful posters from Dresden Codak, only I don't want them to also develop blu-tac stains...)
@doppelgreener You can get less greasy tac, but yeah, I have messed art cards up with that stuff before. My Venture Brothers inserts and my Another art card... le sigh. Nowadays, I mostly do wall scrolls and plastic posters (when I can get them), so it's not as much of an issue. I hang the wallscrolls with command hooks.
I can't remember the brand, but I got some white poster tac for putting my BJD eyes in (as blue can stain the backs of the eyes/insides of the skull). It didn't work very well to hold the eyes in place because it was drier and less sticky -- but I think that would make it much more ideal for posters than the blue tac.
@doppelgreener Actually not--to take them off there's a little tab that you pull away, parallel to the wall and the poster, and the sticky stuff comes away surprisingly easily. I was shocked.
That's ok - I don't want to like, hermetically seal them. Some minor damage is more than acceptable. I may not even have these in a couple of years, since I can't take them to the UK. I just don't want them to turn blue at the corners and ugly from being soaked in tac grease.
Sounds like the white-tac will do that, and I have no concerns about it bonding totally with the card and being unable to pull free like those poster strips. So I will go with the white-tac.
I have an old high school acquaintence who's since gotten very much into the lolita crowd. I've seen a lot of it through the films he's made and photos he's taken.
He runs Deerstalker Pictures. You might be interested in some of their stuff. :D
