The DB currently tracks who played in each event, and who they played. It tracks PCs and NPCs. It calculates the APL for each event, but not the distribution of levels, races, or classes. All of the information needed to calculate those three is present, however; it just takes some manual work...

I'm guessing we don't burden our fighters with the bulk of the killing task that you do. More often than not it's their job to hold a line and get their shots in when they can while the archers and casters lob death over them. Again, that's not an Alliance-wide problem. With some exceptions...

You're showing your age. ;) I generally agree with you on the idea that precasts can be reserved for scrolls, but scrolls are not always widely available. In our game we have one scroll maker that I know of, and scrolls rarely go out as treasure. Memorizing is often the only way our boomers...

We don't seem to have the layered resists or stat creep most chapters have to deal with, so the higher end spells still tend to be rather effective here. Furthermore, assuming I were my same MWE self, that cuts out some of the stuff Bryan noted in his column above. 1: Disarm 2: Magic Armor 3...

The current rule is only that the lock be proved to be pickable. It does not set any limits on what type of hardware should be necessary for doing so. Possessing some of the hardware which may be necessary for doing so is considered intent to commit a crime in the county we play in. In our...

No skill is required to use a lock. Legerdemain is required to attempt to pick said lock. If brought to logistics at the April weekend event we will give tags for any lock physrep that has previously been approved as a pickable lock by a marshal. Note that there is no requirement that a lock...

While it is not technically illegal to carry lock picks in the State of California, the law has the caveat that it is illegal if you have them in your possession and have felonious intent. With a little research, we’ve found some places take a hard line with it. In Santa Clara County possession...

The rule as stated in the rulebook is correct. If you can provide me information privately about the marshal you discussed this with at the game I would be happy to follow up and clarify with them. -Dan

I have the ride covered for Friday. Grishnar, if you can make sure that the ride to the airport on Sunday is covered that would be great, since I won't be able to leave site until late afternoon.

Rending someone in twain with a leg kick? Show me a video of any extant creature doing that. I call shenannigans.

What conditions must be fulfilled in order to activate a magic item held by another person? Examples: Jill has been killed and Jack wants to use Jill's activatable life item (a stone in her pouch) to save her. Should Jack: a. Search Jill, pull the item out of the pouch, and activate it...

You deliberately miss my point, sir. Wasn't it just a few days ago that you berated someone else for just that?

The rules state that there is no religion in the game, *not* that there can be no items with potential religious significance present in the game. That said, it is a terrible idea to use any item that can be easily and inexpensively forged/reproduced as IG tender.

I maintain that this is still a problem that can be solved locally, without any major gamewide changes. The in-game economy is not a microcosm of our own; it's a significantly less complex model that is far easier to tweak without breaking. If not enough coin is flowing back into a chapter's...

New coin, banks, system overhauls...I feel like this discussion is over-engineering solutions to a problem that should begin and end with chapters paying closer attention to how they allocate their treasure policy and to how that policy is being used by the players, then making adjustments...

"Here, take this Cause Minor Annoyance globe we just found on that bandit. I'm sure it will come in handy, right? By the way, whatever happened to all those Alchemical Solvents you found last month?" Vs "NAUSEANAUSEADOMINATEVERTIGOVERTIGORAAAAAAAAAAWR!" That's why I take many levels of alchemy.

Maybe they should. It's a very small price to pay for lots of good material to work with.

No one is suggesting not following the rules. If you'd read the rest of the thread (or even the first post where she specifically mentions having to take out the scrolls to cast them) you'd have known that. Let's not be so hasty to blow apart other peoples' cool costuming ideas, hey?

Those are the reps; they are one inch wide and 16 inches long, folded over a couple of times to fit the bracers.
