LoadingReadyDungeon - LRR D&D Talk

[Melendwyr]

Or, let's try this:

Assign me a class, and I'll play that character. (I can even do NPCs and villains.) I can only play up to about 6:00 tomorrow, though.

[Alex Steacy]

Ok... We have lots of people who want to play, and a few potential DMs... I think that everyone interested should join the #loadingreadydungeon soon, maybe tomorrow and discuss how we can best manage all the players.

Cool?

[Melendwyr]

The d20 System Reference Document is a good resource - and it opens as a webpage and is categorized by section, so it's easy to search.

I'd love to either play or be a DM. (Both, in seperate games, would be kick ass).
I actually have a bit of a story playing in my head for a campaign already, as I was going to be DMing a game with my IRL friends, but people got busy and the plan fell through.

[miakosummin]

Alright, I'm going to be starting a game too.
Anyone who would like to play in my campaign, email me just saying what you'd like to play as and your general time zone, and possibly any times you know you wouldn't be free. I'd most likely be DMing on weekends, although I'm pretty flexible.
I'll take about 4 or 5 people. Just so my and Alex's games don't accidently overlap, I think I'll be opening a #loadingreadydungeon2 or #lrd2 or something.
So, uh, yeah. Email me ([email protected]) if you're interested in joining my game

[Patch]

Mini bot update.

New command added: !lrdtopic
Uses: Changes the topic mode.
How to: says !lrdtopic in the chat, and up to 5 words afterwards, and the bot will change the topic to "Welcome to LoadingReadyDungeon - LRR's D&D Channel - Current DM: Alex Steacy - Current Mode: " and then it'll add your mode to the end

Update for Alex really, as changing the topic can be a bit of a bitch, dunno what IRC client he uses, but this'll simplify things a hell of a lot.

Oh, and to set out of session, just type !lrdtopic



PS: As for the games overlapping, just some careful scheduling will do it perfectly
And if there are 2 games going on, then I'll add some extras to that, to change the DM name

[miakosummin]

Only one person has asked to join my game =< Theres room for three more.

[miakosummin]

Hey, someone just added me to MSN, and I think I may have hit "no" to adding them by accident. Whoever it was, re-add me.

[The Thrill]

C'mon, someone has to want to join the second game. A cleric can't adventure by himself.

[miakosummin]

Well actually a few people have joined. Melendwyr is possibly switching games because Alex might be overworked (thats what he said, so I don't know.), and another person who doesn't go to the forums wants to play as a Sorcerer. And I got an add to MSN from someone, but I think I said "No, don't add" by accident.

[emma]

Alex did say he didn't want more than four people and already (without Mel) we are up to five. So I suppose that is a good idea. Share the love!

Hah, I love the Order of the Stick. I can't believe I forgot aobut that. But do you truly gain experience for boring your enemies?

[Alex Steacy]

You do in my game. Any way you win an encounter counts for experience in my adventure.

I also award XP for extreme cleverness and roleplaying.

[lazy_Buhda]

My dad keeps raving about the good old days when rpg's were all paper and pen. None of this "next gen" hooha. But sure I'd love to play a game. It'll be like in the movie last samuri. "The DM of this game brings together the old ways and the new"

[miakosummin]

Yes, I agree. Things get boring when all you do is fight.

[Alex Steacy]

Yes, I agree. Things get boring when all you do is fight.

You have no idea... My local game is nothing but combat, and it's fun, but everyone is a little bit into the power gaming, and I think there's a sort of arms race going on character-wise. Our newest player has entered play with a 13th level half-ogre fighter with an ice/electric greatsword and a ring of growth. Essentially he grows himself to huge size category and deals out so much hurt that he doesn't even need the cleave feat to empty a room.

Conversely, my current PCs (I love you guys) getting well into the character discussions, accents and subtleties of play. Keep it up, guys!

...Anyway, If anyone would like to refer back to my first post in this thread, I've begun a campaign journal for your reference. Check in on it, and let me know about corrections!

[emma]

I'm pretty sure we went through an entires three hour session and rolled twice. In total. That was fun.

[Izzy2120]

lol, finally got skype up, I guess I need IRC now eh?

[miakosummin]

Melendwyr, I need you to contact me sometime. We might be starting the game soon.

In our game, we have a sorcerer, a monk who is going to multiclass as a wizard, a cleric, and an undecided. XD Lots of spellcasting.

[Izzy2120]

ok, i'm in on IRC, i'm up for playing if someone will take me, I have the PH 3.5 I'll play pretty much any melee class, preferably Rogue, my Skype name is the same as this one.

[Patch]

*yaaaaaaaaaaaaaawn*
Ok...
It's 2am, and Mik has had me coding for the bot...

Changes to the !lrdtopic command...

Now detects which of Alex, Mik, or myself use it, and changes the DM name to "Alex Steacy", "Mik", or "Awaiting DM" respectively. Anyone else who tries it will just trigger bugger all...

If it's buggy, it's Mik's fault...

[Izzy2120]

IRC is giving me a hard time getting into the channel, unless no one is ever there, anyone give me a hand?

[miakosummin]

Make sure you type
/s irc.blitzed.org
then
/j #loadingreadyrun
and-or
/j #loadingreadydungeon (If you're in a campaign)

[Melendwyr]

That was fun. I hope we can do it again next week.
