Rosuav's 1

20100816: Sometimes "random" is so apparently non-random that...
You say, "When you call her a 'bad parrot' (or 'bad polly' etc), she is less
inclined, or sometimes completely disinclined, to repeat what she just
said."
Celorn says, "Hm."
Celorn says, "Reduces the likelyhood of saying it?"
Polly says, "Correct."
Celorn says, "And that was not randomized."
Celorn says, "Stop controlling your parrot!"
Polly says, "Rawwk! It doesn't hurt her."
Celorn says, "Yes, but it ruins the validity -_-"
Polly says, "maybe on AB due to hands being full? Rawwk!"
Polly says, "bk"
You say, "I'm not controlling her!"
[ROLL] Celorn rolls his eyes.
You say, "It was random."
You say, "I actually have no way to control her."
Celorn says, "You know the chances of that particular sentence popping up that
moment? Not a chance Ros, sorry."
You say, "I could calculate the chances of it, but all I can say is: I was AFK,
shopping, and I can show you the receipt. That was truly random."

20100812:
Minstrel Hall now has a resident parrot, who listens to everything said in the common room and randomly repeats some of it back - sometimes a long time later. And sometimes, in moments of pure awesome.....

Polly says, "We can now negatively train Polly too"
Bodriz says to Polly, "that sounds like a good idea. Can I do it?"
Polly says, "Rawwk! Take away her cuttlefish. Rawwk!"

20100720: This is a good name for a mischan.
-{Citizen}- Fynn: For once Deokoria's capricious nature helps us
-{Citizen}- Fynn: Oops, I just Aryadned

20100720: That is DnD awesomeness.
Xanu says, "Hm. A Barbarian/Rogue sounds incredibly satisfying. Sneak attack
with a greataxe? Don't mind if I do."

20100719:
-{Citizen}- Emfield: hey xanu
-{Citizen}- Xanu: Hey Emfield.
-{Citizen}- Emfield: knock knock
-{Citizen}- Xanu: Who's there?
-{Citizen}- Emfield: owls
-{Citizen}- Xanu: Owls who?
-{Citizen}- Emfield: yes they do
-{Citizen}- Xanu grins
-{Citizen}- Emfield dances joyously atop the corpse of His foe!
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: So when did Citizen regress from being "adults only" to
being a place for 8yo-level jokes?
-{Citizen}- Xanu: About the same time as the pun war, I think.
-{Citizen}- Emfield: haha, that's punny
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: Ah, that would be it
-{Citizen}- Zarkul: I agree some pun-ishment is in order Rosuav.
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: I told nearly a dozen of them in the hope that some
would get a laugh. Unfortunately, no pun in ten did.
-{Citizen}- Emfield: hahaha
-{Citizen}- Zarkul chuckles
-{Citizen}- Xanu laughs
-{Citizen}- Emfield: Superman once watched an episode of "walker: texas
ranger". He then cried himself to sleep
-{Citizen}- Olric: Further degeneration
-{Citizen}- Olric grins
-{Citizen}- Emfield: phail
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: I wonder if we could have a game of Foo's Pun.
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: Everyone gets a chit, and Ari tells a whole lot of
puns, and when he hits on one that you think is funny, you say
FOO.
-{Citizen}- Xanu smirks in amusement
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: Meanwhile, the rest of us are cracking bad jokes with
impun-ity.
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: Of course, the way my luck is, it would happen that one
time every seven days that I go to sleep. It's my regular
pattern - as they say, sleep is for the week.
-{Citizen}- Emfield: foo?
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: DQ'd for one round for underfooage.
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: There is, of course, only one pun-ishment in FOO
-{Citizen}- Emfield: is that one round?
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: Yes, even though it was a recycled one
-{Citizen}- Emfield: make sure you put it in the right pun-tainer
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: I'm disappointed. Normally there's a few more people
who join in the fun. I guess the trouble is that without Ari,
there's no decent rewords...
-{Citizen}- Emfield: rewards?
-{Citizen}- Rosuav nods
-{Citizen}- Emfield: aha, nvm, that rewords was punny too
-{Citizen}- Emfield: re-words
-{Citizen}- Emfield: how many days since you slept, ros
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: Yeah, they're pretty bad. But as they say, we could
switch to poetry but it'd be even verse.
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: I slept for 90 watts this morning. I might have had
more, but I'm not _that_ light a sleeper.
-{Citizen}- Emfield: omg, you googled that one
-{Citizen}- Xanu: I wish I was better at puns, I want to join in.
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: Why, Xanu? Are you coming apart?
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: And Em, nope. I never google my puns. They're all out
of the old noodle... which I wish I'd thought of when the topic
was food.
-{Citizen}- Xanu grins

-{Citizen}- Marin: are there handhelds you can mud from?
-{Citizen}- Leshrak: yes
-{Citizen}- Leshrak: i use an HTC tilt 2, you can do it with pretty much
any mobile running WM6, and I'm sure that someone has written
an app for android
-{Citizen}- Leshrak: i wouldn't try to do it on an iphone with the screen
keyboard though, that would be a pain in the ass
-{Citizen}- Jaheria: Now if somebody could write a mudprogram for my Nokia,
I would be happy
-{Citizen}- Calan: There is an app for andraid, Armon uses it, and theres
info about it on the forums
-{Citizen}- Marin: thanks will look that up
-{Citizen}- Valxe: Is there one for the Pre? I looked around and couldn't
find one
-{Citizen}- Leshrak: make sure you get a phone with a full keyboard though
-{Citizen}- Tariyan: Jaheria, what do you have?
-{Citizen}- Leshrak: there's way too much shit to type in for a numpad or
soft keyboard
-{Citizen}- Jaheria: Nokia E17
-{Citizen}- Saorise: Can you mud from an iphone
-{Citizen}- Saorise: please say no
-{Citizen}- Achtius: Yes, you can.
-{Citizen}- Saorise: ohdear.
-{Citizen}- Valxe: Can you MUD from a landline phone?
-{Citizen}- Leshrak: -{Citizen}- Leshrak: i wouldn't try to do it on an
iphone with the screen keyboard though, that would be a pain in
the ass
-{Citizen}- Saorise: LIKE I WAS PAYING ATTENTION
-{Citizen}- Calan: might be hard on an iphone with no slidey keyboard
-{Citizen}- Achtius: The new iPhone 4 converts MUD to full graphics.
-{Citizen}- Marin: so you think the tilt is easiest to type on?
-{Citizen}- Grythael: Can you MUD using morse code?
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: Valxe, you need to set up one-digit aliases for all
commands
-{Citizen}- Guldor: Nokia E71 and E72 (and other noikia's ) have python
ready for them. YOu can load python and then run a python
client to mud with (haven't don eit myself, my fingers are too
large for the keyts! )
-{Citizen}- Valxe: Can you MUD on a stone slab?
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: Valxe, yes; it's a crude form of mortar or cement.
-{Citizen}- Valxe grins, "Heh heh heh!"
-{Citizen}- Saorise missed the joke?
-{Citizen}- Achtius: No Valxe, you can not.
-{Citizen}- Achtius: You can MUD from a potato connected to a car battery
though.
-{Citizen}- Valxe: Maybe one day we'll be able to MUD from our brains.
-{Citizen}- Grythael: Then I'm fucked
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: Never tried that one, Ach, do you have full color
support?
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: We are Threshers of Borg. You will be PK'd.
-{Citizen}- Achtius: Resistance to brain MUDding is futile.
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: We are electrical engineers of borg. Resistance is
futile if less than 1 ohm.
-{Citizen}- Leshrak: Man
-{Citizen}- Leshrak: that was so nerdy it hurt
-{Citizen}- Rosuav grins
-{Citizen}- Valxe: I dream in text a lot
-{Citizen}- Achtius: I think my IQ just jumped to infinite virgin.
-{Citizen}- Grythael: Guys, I need a mudclient. - "Okay, get me an avocado,
a toothpick and a snorkle."
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: What do you need the snorkle for?
-{Citizen}- Valxe: Hahah
-{Citizen}- Grythael: I think Valxe got the reference :P
-{Citizen}- Alumsaye: Macgyver
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: What did he do with those things?
-{Citizen}- Tartun: I got the reference, but the fact that the avocado and
the toothpick are reasonable tools for building a mudclient to
Rosuav is funnier.

20100628: DnD
During this latest session, it was learned that Ranthorpe, a jeweler, was
invited out to dinner.

Tian says, "I think I'm going to break into Ranthorpe's while he is gone to
that dinner, actually."
Tian grins.
You say, "Sure, Tian. Roll WIS to decide not to do it, INT to avoid being an
idiot, Will save for half stupidity, and Reflex save to come back to the
Juniper."

-{Citizen}- Tethon: im a felon, i cant leave the country i give a shit
about anywhere else except canada and mexico incase they invade
-{Citizen}- Rileska reaches out and gently pats Tethon on the head.
-{Citizen}- Rileska: That's BS. I have a couple of friends who are felons
and they can get a passport. Granted..that's after a lot of
paperwork is done..
-{Citizen}- Tethon: if you are on probation or parole for a felony you
cannot
-{Citizen}- Tethon: if you are clear and free you can, no probs
-{Citizen}- Tethon: just dont goto canada
-{Citizen}- Aryadne: Sound advice regardless of circumstance.
-{Citizen}- Tethon: hell, if you got any sort of record, dont try to get
into canada
-{Citizen}- Tethon: lol
-{Citizen}- Fynn: Damn, I knew I shouldn't have set that swimming record
back in high school, now I'll never be a Canadian.
-{Citizen}- Rosuav grins at Fynn
-{Citizen}- Aryadne: I'll leave my LPs at home.
-{Citizen}- Fynn: Oh, good thinking

20100625: This does nothing to dispel the 'Dumb American' stereotype.
[02:57:24] -{Citizen}- Tethon: any aussies here?
-{Citizen}- Celesina: Shocker, Rosuav's not on.
-{Citizen}- Raeghin: He must be sick. I hope he is alright.
-{Citizen}- Tethon: trying to decipher an address to ship internationally
but UPS doesn't recognize the 4 digit postal code.
-{Citizen}- Hendan ponders Raeghin's inner being.
-{Citizen}- Hendan grins
-{Citizen}- Tethon: i have come to the conclusion that shipping
internationally is almost never ever worth it
-{Citizen}- Raeghin: I am a concerned citizen.
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: What's up Tethon?
-{Citizen}- Raeghin: There he goes!
[03:00:08] -{Citizen}- Rosuav: Two minutes behind and you say I'm not online. Faugh!
-{Citizen}- Rosuav tickles Celesina incessantly
-{Citizen}- Raeghin lets out a resounding cheer.
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: This is what you get for kicking me out of your church,
Celes, you don't know that I'm here!
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: What's the addy, Teth?
-{Citizen}- Aryadne accuses Rosuav of using triggers to wake him up when
his name is mentioned on OOC channels.
-{Citizen}- Rosuav grin aryadne
-{Citizen}- Xinefus laughs
-{Citizen}- Celesina laughs at Rosuav
-{Citizen}- Rosuav accuses Aryadne of using triggers to log him off just
before his name is mentioned on OOC channels
-{Citizen}- Celesina: I think Aryadne is right!
-{Citizen}- Aryadne categorically denies absolutely everything related to
the accusation in question.
-{Citizen}- Celesina: Saying his name totally summoned him.
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: It's called invocation.
-{Citizen}- Tethon: ok help...
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: Sure
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: > help ok
There is no help available on that topic.
-{Citizen}- Tethon: austria - 4774 - st.marienkirchen bei schärding -
niederham 26
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: ....
-{Citizen}- Tethon: st marienkirchen is city?
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: Few letters missing from your country name there
-{Citizen}- Hendan: You know Austria is different from Austraelia right?
-{Citizen}- Rosuav thanks Hendan
-{Citizen}- Tethon: Yes, thats his town
-{Citizen}- Tethon: or state
-{Citizen}- Tethon: or whatever
-{Citizen}- Aryadne: Austriaralia
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: With a place name like Niederham, I think you might be
looking at Austria
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: Lemme do a quick check on 4774 though
-{Citizen}- Tethon: that is exactly what he sent me, it checks out with
4774
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: Yep, there is no postcode 4774 in Queensland.
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: What do you mean "checks out"?
-{Citizen}- Tethon: wait.. so austria isnt in australia?
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: ....

Akumu has appeased the Deities of the Aether.

-{Citizen}- Tethon: I am confused... this guy asked if I will ship to
australia
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: Okay. Now, Akumu, appease the Deities of the
Australians
-{Citizen}- Rileska: Tethon...you need a lesson in Geography..
-{Citizen}- Tethon: ok, he did say austria.. i thought he said australia
-{Citizen}- Rosuav chuckles
-{Citizen}- Arkenstar chuckles
-{Citizen}- Rileska: Austria is in Europe.
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: And you didn't notice that the rest of the address
looked very European?
-{Citizen}- Tethon: im a felon, i cant leave the country i give a shit
about anywhere else except canada and mexico incase they invade
-{Citizen}- Rileska reaches out and gently pats Tethon on the head.
-{Citizen}- Tethon: did you notice, i speak english.. only and barely
-{Citizen}- Tethon: i dont know what all that mumbo jumbo backwards address
means, thats why i asked for help =)
-{Citizen}- Tethon: checking again now that i can use the right country

-{Citizen}- Vanora: "He has no idea about our plan to overthrow the
Herastian church, or that we are secret members of the Cult of
the Orange Dragon"
-{Citizen}- Hendan grins at Vanora
-{Citizen}- Vanora: Rosuav, alas that will not have the most epic Aryadne
of all. Which was not citizen related.
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: What was that?
-{Citizen}- Vanora: It was us, many years ago, in the middle of a large
church event. It went something like this 'oath God I am so
sick of Personpresent. He/She is so selfimportant, and
sometimes I wish He/She knew we did
secretthingwedidnobodyshouldknow, because that would put he/she
in his/her fucking place.
-{Citizen}- Vanora: Note the placement of the '
-{Citizen}- Rosuav laffs out loud!
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: Yup.
-{Citizen}- Vanora: It was awesome

Torhelm [ooc] Ancient D&D saying: "People who don't like nicknames shouldn't

20100611: Hello Bags, your nickname is calling.
-{Citizen}- Kaithryne rolls bags
-{Citizen}- Kaithryne: oh for chrissakes
-{Citizen}- Isaviel rolls on the floor laughing
-{Citizen}- Calan peers quizzically at Kaithryne
-{Citizen}- Kaithryne: forced to unalias it and NOW look
-{Citizen}- Isaviel: i was going to ask what kind of Bagsohaks you're

-{Citizen}- Isaviel: oh for gods sakes
-{Citizen}- Isaviel blames Kaithryne for all the problems.
-{Citizen}- Rosuav rolls 2dBags
-{Citizen}- Kaithryne: bahahahaha!
-{Citizen}- Ismenia: I used to have that alias too Isaviel and used to do
that all the time
-{Citizen}- Isaviel: damn aliases

20100611: This conversation just happened. You can't make this stuff up.
M: Have you got any CPU cycles available?
C: Yes. I'm not wasting time, my code's compiling. What is it?
M: It's a weird, theoretical question and you're NOT going to like it.
C: ...
M: Good. You know how a program will test for a division by zero to prevent a run-time error. What happens if there's something at a lower level? Does the operating system protect the CPU against division by zero?
C: No, in the middle of the division operation the CPU will trigger an interrupt which the operating system will catch.
M: OK... but what would happen if it didn't?
C: (pauses)
M: I told you you wouldn't like it!
C: You're not going to like the answer either.
M: What, you mean I'd get 0x2A in EAX and random junk in all the other registers?
C: No, worse than that. We have to go back further and define division.
M: You win.

20100604: Core Samples hints about the M11 coreset
http://www.wizards.com/Magic/Magazine/Article.aspx?x=mtg/daily/ld/93

I picked Lightning Bolt as my favorite card (because it sees a lot more casual play than BSA!). I'm guessing 5 cards will have still been here forever, and that Giant Growth will stay, and Howling Mine will go. As a secondary, I'm guessing Bog Wraith will go too.

This will remain here until we know the true answers (apart from the "favorite card" which we'll never know), at which point I'll add an update for convenience's sake, showing how wildly inaccurate I was :)

-- Edit: The results are in! --

Giant Growth is indeed staying, and both Howling Mine and Bog Wraith are out. But having correctly called the "outs" is not all that impressive, as there are only TWO cards still in: GG and Giant Spider.

20100524: DnD awesomeness
This takes place in the Jumping Juniper in Rilvier City. Tobias has not yet
been introduced to the others.

Events are from the DM's point of view.

Tian leans way back on his chair and tries to balance on it's back legs,
"Well, maybe they should find a new line of work..." he grins.
[ROLL] Tian (balance) rolls d20: 1
[ROLL] Tian (balance) adds a bonus of 3
[ROLL] For 1d20+3, Tian (balance) totals: 4
You say, "Kersplat"

missing catching himself on the table.
You say, "You fall flat on your back, creating some commotion. All eyes turn to
you."
[ROLL] DMR rolls d20: 11
You say, "The chair is undamaged, but has shot off under the table."
Tobias turns to help Tian up.
Tian stands up, dusts himself off, "I meant that, I meant that." he explains
as he looks around.
Tobias tells you: I don't suppose I could pick his pockets while I do so?
You tell Tobias: You can try!
Balin laughs boisterously at Tian tumble.."That be why chair have four legs,
ta keep them all on the sweet stone."
Tian ducks under the table to pull the chair out, which he stands up and sits
back down on.

[ROLL] For 1d20+1, Tian (spot) totals: 20
Tobias says to Tian, "You alright there?"
You tell Tian: You notice Tobias trying to go through your pockets as he helps
you up.
Tian tells you: Can I draw a dagger and tap it to his chest with a sleight of
hand roll and a move action?
You tell Tian: A threatening move without drawing blood?
Tian tells you: Yep
You tell Tian: Go for it
[ROLL] Tian rolls d20: 10
[ROLL] Tian adds a bonus of 5
[ROLL] For 1d20+5, Tian totals: 15
Tian produces a slim knife in his hand, which he taps to Tobias' chest, "Hands
in your own pockets, please." he replies cheerfully.
Tobias raises an eyebrow glancing at the knife, "Just trying to help a mate
up."
Tian flips the dagger in his hand and sheathes it in his belt, "Sure you
were." he grins at Tobias and steps away from the man and lowers himself
back into his chair.

... later ...

Balin chuckles as he leans his chair back and attempt to balance better the
Tian.
You say, "(Roll it!)"
[ROLL] Balin (balance) rolls d20: 18
[ROLL] Balin (balance) adds a bonus of 5
[ROLL] For 1d20+5, Balin (balance) totals: 23
You say, "You lean back smoothly, demonstrating perfect balance and grace."
Tian points his thumb toward Tobias and leans in close to Torhelm, "And that
guy tried to pick my pocket, so watch your coins." he whispers and gives
Balin a semi-shocked lok when the dwarf balances on the chair.
Balin says, "This be how ye does it proper lad."

... and later still ...

Tian brings the mead to his lips and tilts his head back, downing the rest. He
attempts to shove his chair back and leap to his feet in one motion.
[ROLL] Tian (tumble) rolls d20: 16
[ROLL] Tian (tumble) adds a bonus of 5
[ROLL] For 1d20+5, Tian (tumble) totals: 21

You say, "You atone for your former failure admirably."

... and then, that night ...

Balin says, "Be doin yer chair trick again Tian I be needin a laugh."
Torhelm says, "Chair trick?"
Tian leans back on his chair and tries to balance ....
[ROLL] Tian rolls d20: 7
[ROLL] Tian adds a bonus of 3
[ROLL] For 1d20+3, Tian totals: 10
You say, "You teeter and make a slightly ungainly landing back on four feet."
Tian hmms.
Tian says, "One more time!"
Tian leans back, but this time purposely tosses himself backward!
[ROLL] Tian (tumble) rolls d20: 8
[ROLL] Tian (tumble) adds a bonus of 6
[ROLL] For 1d20+6, Tian (tumble) totals: 14
You say, "You fall all over the floor, the chair skidding off under the table."
You say, "You remain in control of where you land."
Tian tumbles backward, sending his chair flying forward, and bumps roughly
against an adjacent table's chair.
Balin erupts in resounding laughter wiping at his eyes..
Tian blinks, dizzily, and stands up, he sticks his arms out to each side, "Ta
da!" as if he meant to do it.

spore, with the funny name.

whale of a time.
-{Citizen}- Bashlon grins
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: Actually, these jokes are nothing but red herrings
-{Citizen}- Khaltek: I have a joke, actually.
-{Citizen}- Khaltek: what is the difference between a fish and a piano?
-{Citizen}- Khaltek: you can tune a piano..
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: These jokes are worth money, Khaltek, you should see if
you can get a few squid for them!
-{Citizen}- Thierran groans
-{Citizen}- Ysadri: What a snappery comback

20100522: Yup, it's an Aryadne mischan.
-{Citizen}- Aryadne: So, as long as we can disbar any other organization
that has been responsible for a terrible Justicar, I'm behind
the movement. I think that should disqualify... everyone.
-{Citizen}- Calan cheers enthusiastically for Aryadne
-{Citizen}- Ysadri: Except me.
-{Citizen}- Aryadne: I'll be here all week. Try the veal.

20100518: Nice.
Zana reaches up and spins the Wheel of Plenty!
Zana says, "watch this"
You say, "I will."
-> Zana flashes the wheel...

The Wheel of Plenty comes to a stop amidst small fireworks which jet out
from within its internal mechanism.

You laff out loud!

Congratulations! Zana has won Dryad's Milk!

optician. I'm not sure how bad that is.
-{Citizen}- Ysadri: Is dodgy a medical term now?

rugby-ball shaped and then used a long word like stigmatism
-{Citizen}- Lask: so ya got big eyes...

-{Citizen}- Vizra: Eyes hurt?

20100511: Suicide advice from a cop.
-{Citizen}- Tathar: One word of advice, if you try to take your life. One,
be somewhat sober so you have some sort of cordination and
realize that the gun is not against your head but on top of
it...lol
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: ....
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: So, what did he do, kill his hearing and make a mess on
the wall?
-{Citizen}- Tathar: No, she fired two rounds trying to kill herself
-{Citizen}- Tathar: both rounds went into the ceiling
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: And was she wondering why she didn't feel dead?
-{Citizen}- Tathar: She was way too drunk to know what was going on
-{Citizen}- Tathar: At one point she had it right, and had the gun in her
mouth but we talked her out of pulling the trigger
-{Citizen}- Rileska: Did she decide to kill herself because she was out of
liquor?
-{Citizen}- Tathar: She was supposed to be in alcohol detox, but the person
watching her left and forgot to grab the liquor she had hidden.
So she was in withdraw and drunk, go figure

Catrolean says, "It's a dragon, not an architect."

20100507:

unmentionable word
-{Citizen}- Calan: Since when are any words unmentionable on cit>?
-{Citizen}- Khaltek: it's a help comms word :(
-{Citizen}- Calan: ah
-{Citizen}- Ysadri: It all depends on context, Khaltek. After all, was
Johnny Cash lagging behind the times when he sang "Mob Rules"?
-{Citizen}- Rosuav snickers at Ysadri

-{Citizen}- Rosuav keeps stats on Ysadri's jokes

Slagathor says, "THat's like 3 tens"
Dungeon Master chuckles.
Vith'lem says, "they're average at best by orc standards which i still think is
putrid by normal"
Celorn laughs.
Dungeon Master says, "12 is fairly attractive."
Slagathor says, "No thank you ladies, but feel free to tell your friends"
Slagathor nods at DMV.
Dungeon Master says, "The sigh and tell you that you don't know what you are
missing. "
Slagathor says, "I'm sure I'll regret it later"
Slagathor sighs
Slagathor says, "Ah who am I kidding?"
Slagathor says, "Ladies, wait for meeeeeeee!"

20100504: DnD
Slagathor [chat] rapier, sneak attack
Celorn [chat] Don't think you're still in stealth....
Slagathor [chat] Flanking
Slagathor [chat] I get sneak attack when flanking
Celorn [chat] ah.
Slagathor [chat] Hence why I'm outside the corner
Celorn [chat] was about to say, what imbecile doesn't notice a mad raging gnome
that jumps on a rock and starts stabbing you. Even orcs arent that bad.

20100504: In DnD, flanking is so worthwhile... Remember, Slag's a halfling.
Slagathor says, "(So, how many tumbles to move into position to be flanking
with Ornu?"
Dungeon Master says, "I don't see where you can. I didn't move Ornu ver well
for that, did I? Sorry."
Dungeon Master hmms.
Slagathor says, "Orc 1"
Dungeon Master says, "Unless you want to jump on a boulder."
Slagathor says, "Full move?"

Dungeon Master hmms.
Slagathor says, "I'll jump on the boulder, are you kidding me?"
Slagathor says, "Bravado!"
Slagathor says, "If you'll let me"
Dungeon Master says, "You could move one north though and then ready an action
to stab if Ornu moves into position."
Slagathor says, "1 north?"
Slagathor says, "On top of the big boulder?"
Dungeon Master says, "I think tumbling, moving 6, jumping on a boulder and
attacking all in one move is a bit much."
Dungeon Master says, "No. I mean one north of that small boulder where you
were."
Slagathor says, "I kind of want to fight from the boulder now"
Slagathor says, "Don't I get a bonus?"
You say, "Melee from high ground."
Slagathor says, "I'm fine losing an attack this round"
Celorn says, "For being the same height as them?"
Slagathor shrugs.
Slagathor grins at Celorn.
Celorn laughs.
Dungeon Master says, "Well. There is a bonus for altitude, but like Celorn
says..."
Dungeon Master says, "That puts you at eye level with them. =P"
Slagathor says, "So you wouldn't grant me a bonus?"
Slagathor says, "I'm still a small target... just higher?"
Slagathor says, "Your call"
Dungeon Master says, "Fine, I'll give you the altitude bonus, but you would
lose your attack for this round."
Slagathor says, "Thanks!"

"
Dungeon Master grins.
Dungeon Master says, "Just kidding"
Slagathor says, "Never! Cannonball!"
Slagathor valiantly leaps onto the boulder and taunts the orcs
Slagathor says, "Turn"
Dungeon Master nods.
Dungeon Master says, "Orc 4 moves to flank the mad homicidal halfling."
[ROLL] DMV rolls d20: 3
[ROLL] DMV adds a bonus of 12

Slagathor says, "Excellent!"
[ROLL] Slagathor rolls 3d6: 1, 1, 1, totalling 3.
Slagathor says, "LAAAAME"
Dungeon Master laughs out loud!
Slagathor grins.
Vith'lem says, "bah!"

took impressively bad luck."
[chat] Slagathor is going to stab Celorn
Celorn [chat] thats 4 1's in 4 rolls.
Slagathor nods at DMV.

20100408: Metanerding. Karakorisa had shared an off-color limerick, so I offered:
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: I came across the limerick to end all limericks
recently.

There once was an X from place B,
Who satisfied predicate P.
The X did thing A,
In an adjective way,
Resulting in circumstance C.
-{Citizen}- Qenton: Should I do the honors?
-{Citizen}- Karakorisa screams at the top of her lungs, "OH MY FUCKING GOD
WHAT IS THIS NERD SHIT?!?!?!"
-{Citizen}- Qenton: Or you can.
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: Rhokiki used to have an alias for that.
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: csr --> citizen ;serith rosuav
-{Citizen}- Ravin: How many times has someone used that emote on you
Rosuav?
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: I lost track at 255.
-{Citizen}- Ravin chuckles
-{Citizen}- Karakorisa: 42.
-{Citizen}- Ravin: Improbable Karakorisa

"csr" quote.

20100405:
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: After a race in Top Gear: "Hammond, meanwhile, was just
squashing the finishing line."
-{Citizen}- Lucinda: hm
-{Citizen}- Rosuav and Midga are totally cracked up here
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: They are in trucks. Semitrailers. And they have just
finished a race, in hilly conditions, with fragile cargo on
board.
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: Hammond... understeered, and kinda dealt a few points
of damage to the stop sign at the finish line.
-{Citizen}- Xanu: Hammond rolls d20 for skill check "taking a turn".
Hammond rolls 1. Hammond checks for critical failure. Hammond
rolls 1. Hammond rolls for damage to stop sign. Hammond rolls
5d8. Hammond lightly scratches stop sign.

2:10 AM [b]Unk_Unk[/b]: Hey, what does ORC stand for?
2:10 AM [b]VicVega[/b]: um yeah
2:10 AM [b]ORC_Uzumaki[/b]: [@P]ORC (Online Response Crew) is provided by Wizards of the Coast to offer support for our gaming community. We're here to help, or help you find help. [sS] [/@]
2:10 AM [b]bigguy554[/b]: or help you help me

2:10 AM [b]Unk_Unk[/b]: wow, fastest awnser from op ever
2:11 AM [b]Rosuav[/b]: Hehe, Unk. They have common answers aliased. In the Drafts room, the answer to the question of "why can't I join a draft with this draft pack" is probably the most-used ever.
2:11 AM [b]ORC_Uzumaki[/b]: [@P]ORCs are required to type at speeds of at least 4,000 words per minute. My fingertips melt at least 13 keyboards per week. When you see an ORC post an immediate response to a question, you can be sure that the ORC responded much sooner, and that lag stopped the response from getting to you in the fraction of a second it took for them to write the response (from memory).

-{Citizen}- Serania raises her eyebrow.
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: One of the cast just threw a prop bread roll, missed
the basket, and had it smash beautifully all over the floor.
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: Turns out it was a real bread roll, several months
stale.
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: It was magnificent. Arced beautifully, struck the
floor, and just shattered.
-{Citizen}- Serania smirks in amusement
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: This is why I love being at rehearsal.
-{Citizen}- Mellisande: I thought you were talking about a cat....
-{Citizen}- Serania laughs
-{Citizen}- Mellisande: I was impressed for a second.
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: Ehhh... a cat where?
-{Citizen}- Serania bonks Rosuav on the head.
-{Citizen}- Rosuav: Oh. Cast is not a typo. heheheee

20100328:
Magic awesomeness!!!

Worldwake Rochester draft

Board state:

G has 0/1 Plant token, 2/2 Cosi's Ravager, 2/2 Wolf token, and 1/1 Snake token.

T has 1/1 Walking Atlas.

G casts Feral Contest targeting her Cosi's Ravager and the Walking Atlas. (She wants the extra toughness on her landfall pinger.) She attacks with Cosi's Ravager, the Wolf, and the Snake.

T blocks Cosi's Ravager with the Atlas, as mandated. On the Declare Blockers step, he casts Bull Rush, targeting his Walking Atlas.

Awesome play #1: In response, G casts Ricochet Trap, targeting the Bull Rush - planning to change the target to one of her unblocked creatures.

Awesome play #2: T casts Ricochet Trap, targeting G's Ricochet Trap!

Both traps were hard-cast.

Amazing stuff!
