I've found my new class. It is perfect, and I only need 2 levels to get everything I want. (Hey, I'm two levels behind! Woohoo!) And it would only require the slightest amount of DM approval to OK the class requirements!

RONIN

Requirements:
Non-Lawful. +6 BaB.
Feats- Exotic Weapon Prof. Bastard Sword
Special- Must have fled, or been exiled from the service of a feudal lord.


I've since made good, but I left the Dwarves due to my own dishonor.
As long as you'll OK my fullblade as an "exotic, Cloud Giant sized bastard sword..." that'll work. <.<


1st: Sneak Attack +1d6, Infamy
2nd: Banzai Charge

Infamy - The ronin's reputation for dishonor - deserved or not - follows him everywhere. Whenever someone in a position of authority has heard of the ronin's past (usually through a DC10 Gather information or Knowledge check), that person's attitude starts one category worse than usual, and the ronin takes a -4 circumstance penalty on all Charisma-based checks involving that person. The infamy penalty only applies if the authority figure knows the ronin's identity.

The stories of the killings in Greyhawk are hard to forgive.

Banzai Charge - The ronin has cast away the code of bushido and at least a measure of his own honor, but his heart still remembers the thrill of bravery. When a ronin of 2nd level or higher charges into battle, he can accept a variable penalty to his AC and take an equivalent bonus on the damage roll. The normal -2AC penalty still applies and counts towards the bonus, but the ronin cannot accept a penalty smaller than -2 or larger than his base attack bonus.

(+20 Damage to a charge attack, in exchange for a -20 to AC? Uh... ok.)

That site is pretty awesome.

John Said that the Hasselhof thing was the greatest thing ever, but I'm pretty sure THIS is soooo much better.



Mmmmmmm.

http://www.thegreenhead.com/

A web page that finds awesome things, and then puts them all in the same place so you can look at them and go "woah... awesome things."

Microsoft can indeed suck my balls.

Farva, if you happen to check the blog before coming over Monday, bring whatever XP/Recovery disk came with this POS emachine.

A few observations....

1. Microsoft Windows can suck my balls!

2. Those short socks with ruffles that were popular with the ladies in the 80s still make me all sweaty :) I was watching Night of the Comet! Kelli Maroney was super hot!!!





3. Jesse James meets Frankenstein's daughter is a really shitty movie.

That is all for now.

Jeremy--Call Jean Spenser 330.262.0916 ext 237

John - You happen to have any idea when I should expect a call regarding that Library position?

Edit - Nevermind... got a call from the library today. Had a missed number from the film department this morning at 10am. Must have slept through it. Of course, my voice mail is still fucked up. I think I finally got it straightened out after about 15 minutes on the phone with Alltel.

I never should have left TracPhone. As much as Tech Support: India irritated me, at least the damned phones worked.

Can you ask Jenn who I'm supposed to talk to? I'll give 'em a call back Monday.

Farva - The parts came in for your Dad's computer. Got the new PSU and MB installed, and everything boots, so the chip and memory are fine. Windows is all fubar'd, though this is pretty much expected whenever you change a motherboard. (The old drivers aren't compatible with the new board, so it makes it crash whenever it tries to load. Can't even get into Safe Mode.)

I don't have an XP disk with me here at work, so I'll have to see what I can do when I get home. Though I think I ran into this problem last time I worked on that system. It uses one of those fuck-worthless "recovery disks" doesn't it- and not a real copy of Windows?

I think I had to back everything up, recover, then copy the shit back over last time you had me work on this machine. Which won't help at all, since the original drivers are what is causing the problems in the first place. And I can't just install using my disk, cause those OEM keys are no good with retail disks.

I may have to find you a cracked version (Yarr!) just to get this machine working again.

Mmmm Meat Wallet.


But I found mine, haha. It was at Noah's

Bubbles, I've found you a new wallet.

Yeah I'm pretty sure I did, it could be at Noah's though, I still need to check there.

OH NOES there is a Chinese dude somewhere wrecking Bubbles' credit rating!!!!

I kid. Dude it really sucks that you lost your wallet.

Bubbles, I checked the front seat and floor of my car, and don't see a wallet anywhere. Are you sure you had it coming out of the buffet?

Dustin--Awesome sight. I watched the South Park episode Make Love not Warcraft again. Funny funny shit.

John - Baahaa... those would have been great. Maybe you could just get them made into pins instead. :)

Farva might need a new Blogger invite. He'd asked me to get it working for him again, on one of my computers, since he's still unable to get it to work on his. I forgot to ask 'em about it. I'll have to do that in a few days when the parts for his Dad's PC finally come in.

Farva - PC parts shipped. They'll arrive probably Wednesday. If the MB was the only thing fried, it should be back up and running by Friday.)


Dustin - Awesome page.

Bubs - You think you dropped it in my car? I didn't see anything in the seat, but I'll go take a look when I get home. (I drove Amber's car to work tonight.)

Best web site ever http://quicksilverscreen.com/

Jeremy last week when you dropped me off after the buffet I think my wallet may have fell out of my pocket, I would of said something today but I forgot untill Farva and I started talking that you were the one that dropped me off and not Farva. If you could check when you get the chance it would be much appreciated.

There is a new law on the streets. HOBO WITH A SHOTGUN!

http://www.ifilm.com/video/2831746

Booyeah!

Holy shit it's Dustin! Hehe no worries have fun at the Applebees. Hey guys if Scott doesn't show up tonight we could all go and eat food that Dustin makes for us :)

Hey everyone, Im not going to be able to make t to the game today. I gotta be at work at 4:00.

I think Farva said something about needing another invite to the blog or something.

Sup dudes? Tonight should be Scott's game I think. I will be there at 5:30ish, but will check the blog before I leave work. Just in case something happens and the game doesn't get played I'll bring some movies. I will check the blog around 4:30 just in case so leave me a message.

Oh yeah could someone remind me to check with Scott and Dustin (yeah sure he will show) about their invites? I keep forgetting to ask them if they got them. Also I don't remember if Farve can post anymore.

Every year at the College of Wooster we do a staff shirt. I suggested that this year the below image be on our shirts. I thought that it was funny, but alas they chose something else.

So are we having a game tonight? I'll keep checking the blog to see if anyone responds, otherwise I'll be at Jeremy's tonight ready to get my Frohike on!

I've sent Dustin and Scott invitations again to rejoin us on the blog. As of yet it doesn't appear that they have responded.

WOO HOO THE DAY HAS COME!!!!!!!!!

So Grindhouse opens tonight and we are trying to get a group together to go and see it. I know that I had mentioned seeing it in a Drive-in (which I still plan on doing!) but the lovely Ohio weather has delayed the opening of the Drive-in for at least a week. They say they may open for next weekend. This means that we are going to have to see the movie here in town at the Movies 10. We plan on seeing the 9pm show so if you want to go meet us there. I also think that we may get some food before the movie so give me a call if you want to go.

Farva-

Best I can tell the power supply and MB on your Dad's computer is shot. Surge must have went through the cheap PSU and fried something on the board. Chip may still be salvageable, but I can't test it, 'cause I don't have access to a 478-socket MB.

I can get a new MB for about $50. (The super-cheap $25 boards are out of stock, so who knows when or if they'll come back.) Plus about $15 for a cheap PSU. (Ends up being about $75 shipped.) Then you hope the chip is OK. (It probably is... but it'd be another week + another $40 for the chip.)

Or you can do what you'd asked about, give your Dad your MB and processor, and go ahead and replace your own. New stuff is cheaper than trying to find replacements for the old parts- no joke. Athlon 64 2.0GHz dual-cores w/ motherboard starting at about $130. (Though you'd have to remember the cost of a new video card & RAM, depending on what there is to salvage out of your machine. You'd also mentioned wanting to go to the PCI-X video...)

Basically, figure on about $100 to fix the old one, or $200-250+ (depending on your budget, and the amount of ass you want to kick) to upgrade yours and give him your old parts.


Oh, and Happy Easter, n' stuff...

Must not allow the cat pictures to die!

Wow so Scott called me last night to apologize about Monday. Apparently he forgot that it was his week to run the game. So that means that Scott, Farve and myself all missed the game. Sorry Jeremy I suppose that meant you had to hang out with Bubbles all by yourself (pretty creepy eh?). Seriously though I'm really sorry. I spent part of the afternoon at the vets office because I thought that my beagle Wolfgang was having a stroke. As it turns out he is just having issues with his nervous system (still could be a tumor). Bottom line was I really wouldn't of been fun to be around.

On a lighter note it appears that the lovely Mrs. Shatz and the lovely Mrs. Nester are going to hang out together on Friday night so Jason and I can organize a group of us to go see Grindhouse. If anyone is interested in seeing this movie with us please call or email me before the end of work on Friday.

Jeremy--Jason is going to talk to you on Thursday night.

Guys sorry for the late notice but I can't come to the game tonight. Also Farve called me last night and told me that he may not make it tonight as well.

Darkness? Do you know what I do to Darkness? I.....

DON'T MAKE ME KICK ALL YOUR ASSES!

Oh and this.

British humor can be great, but sometimes its just lame as hell.

I don't know about you guys but I think that the British just have smarter humor




Good stuff....

...................Jeremy wins.................

Since I'm playing WOW again I thought that this one was funny.

Pfft this one is better

God Damn it Bubbles the Blog is for funny CAT pictures not some gay rabbit pictures!

I <3 Bunnies.

I agree with Jeremy....

This blog is best used for funny cat pictures.
That is what Blogger technology was invented for.

I am Spartacus bitches!

Okay you fuckers are starting to creep me out now! :)

This picture cracks me up. Don't know why.



See you guys tonight.

DOWNS CAT!!!!

Sorry about Friday guys. I attended a professional conference for members of IT help desks. Somehow when they planned the conference they managed to not provide internet access! I didn't get back in town until later on Friday evening.

I won't be able to make it, I made plans to hang out with some friends I havn't seen in a while.

Alright... so were we serious about spending 'bout three hours (down and back) driving to watch 300 on the big-ass screen? (Actually, I'd be driving. You'd be in my car. I'll actually clean out my back seat, too! Shocking. I know..)

The IMAX version is playing at 7:00p, 9:45p and 12:15a. 7:00p is too early to get there, and 12:15a is probably just a little too damned late, so I'm gonna' guess if this does happen we should shoot for the 9:45p. Gives us plenty of time to get down there, actually find the place, and grab some Indian food.

Or did you guys wanna' just catch the movie on one of the screens here in town earlier in the evening, and then go eat chicken wings?

That really hurts my feelings, John.

=`(

Yeah great a Watchman movie. Want to bet they will manage to fuck it up?

Oh also If you guys havn't seen this. Here is some more about it.

Thats fucking awesome.




and so is this.

This one is for Bubbles!

In honor of our D and D game tonight I present the following.

Oh wow that would be awesome. If I have the cash I'll go.

I checked with the IMAX site, and it looks like the nearest IMAX theater playing 300 is the AMC Easton in Columbus. (The Science Center in Cleveland also has a big screen, but they only show sciency-stuff.)

It can be fucking amazing and fucking huge at the same time.

Anyone feel up for a road trip next Friday?

Meh you level faster without going into an instance anyway.

I went to a midnight showing of 300 and its fucking amazing. Everyone NEEDS too see it.

Sup bitches did you miss me on Monday?

So I figure that we are playing Dustin's game on Monday so I'm looking forward to some epic adventure stuff. Starting to get into my Darf mindset.......

My hunter hit level 30 last night. I'm kind of digging the fact that I can just wander around killing monsters and stealing their skin. Though my guild likes to pick on me because I've not seen the inside of an instance yet :)

Farve--Cool. I was missing Jeremy's translations of your posts :)

Bubbles--No you are a fucking liar :P

Dustin <-- Loves the Cock (see what happens when you can't check blogger!)

Fucking liar.

yep i can post

No problem, I always make sure to check the blog on Mondays.

Huh. I guess everything works out, then.

I left a message on Dustin's phone, and got ahold of Farva before goin' to bed. I once again forgot to get Bubbles number, so hopefully he gets a chance to check the blog today before getting dropped off.

Okay I'm making an executive decision here. We are not going to have a game tonight. Scott called me last night and he is having to pull an extra shift today and couldn't run his game anyway. I'll see you guys all next week.

Later
Shatz

I'm not going to be able to join you for the AD&D game on Monday. I'm going to be working on the house remodel in the morning and sleeping through most of the evening, getting up just before work like normal people.

My basement is still available if you still want to use it, but I'll be unconscious.

John,

Farva thinks he's got his email address wrong in the system, so he can't recover his password.

slashcutterr at yahoooooOOOooooo-oooh.com is the correct one. He thinks he missed a "t".

If you can change it in the admin menu, go for it. Otherwise he wants a re-invite.

I'm tasting the wings already...... :)

I'll be there.

Mmmn.... teriyaki wings.

Don't forget wings and other munchies at 9:30 pm. BW3 be there or be square!

XP - 12, 960

So has anyone heard from Dustin? If not I will bring us something to do (movie or a board game).

Bubbles-- A bard eh? You should have to speak in Rhyme most of the time. It really isn't that hard unless your are a 'tard. :P

Blah, I think I'm gonna save the duel wand wielder for another time then, Think I'll make a Bard though never played one.

Dustin--I don't know if you have internet access yet but if so please give me a call on my cell phone. I have a few questions for you.

Standard item creation usually has higher-level spells being made into Staves, and not wands. (You also won't find any high-level potions.)

There are some tables in Tome and Blood to price out custom magic items.

I'm working on my character for Dusty's game, and I was looking at wands, and they don't go above 4th level which is REALLY lame. Is there any way get wands above 4th level? If not I think I might scratch this dual wand wielder. : /

Bubbles--Don't forget to give us your new number tonight. That way you never miss out on the good stuff again!

Farve--I hope that you can make it tonight. Of course at this point I'm not even sure that you have access to a computer.

Dustin--Please don't forget to the tiles. I really need them for my game on Sunday. I need to teach the newbs how the combat system works :)

All--I'm so in the mood to play my goblin tonight. This is going to rock!!!!

See everyone tonight.

Ahh shit I knew I should of checked the blog yesterday.

I forgot I didn't give anyone my new number.

Farve have you tried to see if the food service department here at the College of Wooster is hiring? I know that they have had some turnover lately.

hi all whats up im taring to find work so i can stay but...
no monday i will show if im not working or dead if u all
here of a job let me know.

Well, he's kind of a drifter at the moment.

He might stay in Wooster for a while if we talk him into it.

Come. Consume large quantities of fried bacon wrapped around little sausages with us. Enjoy the tales of the Farv.

Jeremy--Sorry dude I just assumed that we called it off tonight because of the storm. So is Farve back in town permanet like? That would be super cool!!!!!

To all--Got the following note.

Hello,

Your blog has been reviewed, verified, and cleared for regular use so that
it will no longer appear as potential spam. If you sign out of Blogger and
sign back in again, you should be able to post as normal. Thanks for your
patience, and we apologize for any inconvenience this has caused.

Sincerely,
The Blogger Team

Worked for me :)

Farva is back in town!

We're hittin' the Chinese Buffet tomorrow!

Shatz, you up for a little e coli?
I need to get ahold of Dustin, too.

Does anybody know how to get ahold of Bubbles too, other than the Blog?

Bubs, if you're reading this before say 6pm Thursday or so, give somebody a call.

Alright... I just called off work. (Got the shift covered.) Roads are terrible, 4WD vehicles can barely get up our street, with more snow expected for tonight.

Are we calling off this lil' BW3s trip, or do you wanna' see how well they've got the roads cleared by tomorrow evening? <.<

Yeah, I think it was supposed to be Dustin's game tonight.

Of course, since I'm posting this at 5:30pm, it is a bit too late to bother checking the Blog.

John- Word Verification is gone. Woohoo!

So what is tonight. Is it Dustin's game or something else?

Well we shall see what happens. I've sent the form that will turn word verification off, if they accept it :)

Damn you, Google....

... damn you.....!

*Cough*

So, now that they've updated, can you finally turn off that damned Word Verification (and have it actually work this time?) ¬_¬

Yeah it forces everyone to upgrade.

Sup guys. Just wanted you to all know that I was forced to upgrade to the new version of Blogger. I don't know if that will force you to upgrade as well but such is life.

24: Boston Edition

Scott - You can get that exact model for about $70 cheaper on Newegg. (Or grab the 500gb for about the same price.)

(Edit: Actually, I just took a closer look. This model doesn't have the Firewire connection.)

http://www.newegg.com/ProductSort/SubCategory.asp?SubCategory=414&name=External-Hard-Drives

Why an external, anyway? Just wanting an easy upgrade for more storage space? Or did you want the backup software and all that?

John - I am so there.

Holy shit I'm so going to see this movie the minute I can get my hands on it!!!!

http://www.ifilm.com/video/2810911

Hey people get sick so don't worry about it Bubbles. You didn't miss much on Monday except that we all sold our souls for some kick ass shit. Oh yeah and I was banged by a demon so that I could become a half fiend. Of course there was that little issue of having my new self eat its way out of the old me. Oh yeah can't forget Clumpy my animated fetus pet. Other than that it was a pretty quiet night..........

Hey guys.

Does this look like a good deal? Any idea how long an external hard drive like this would last?
