[Master] Hello Sir
[TMO] yo
[Master] how are you feeling?
[TMO] bit pissy. :) frustrating morning kinda ruined the day. :)
[Master] sorry for that
[TMO] it happens
[Master] Not sure there will be good things to kill tonight
[Master] to take out your frustrations
[TMO] no worries. it will pass. I'm like a leaky cauldron. I bottle it up and repress it and ignore it, and it just kinda leaks out anyways and dissipates. ;)
[Master] warm chuckle
[Master] you missed a milestone by 1% this year
Spring has joined the game on Fri Dec 18 19:12:18 EST 2020

[Master] you have been part of 29% of all the game sessions ever played
Spring has received the map Base Map.
[Master] Hello Spring
[Spring] h!
[Spring] i see you have been playing with the year-end math
[Master] yes
[Master] There are some nice milestones
[Spring] i bet i did a lot better this year
[Master] yes you did
[Spring] mu
[Spring] oops
[Spring] my attendance is usually somewhere in the 30s
[Master] over one third more this year
[TMO] welp, I'll pass it soon then. :)
[Spring] that's all?
[Master] grins at TMO yeap
[Spring] i thought it was close to 100

[Spring] hi Carissa!
[Master] OH you mean percentage for the year Spring? I have not looked at that number
[Master] only the overall percentage for all games played
[Spring] oh ok whew
[Carissa] Hi all!
[Master] which is now 1304
[Master] and Hello Carissa
[Spring] yeah my fraction for history will be small for a long time
[Master] chuckles you will be surprised then Spring
[Spring] man my feet feel really good
[Master] How are you with the snow Carissa?
[Spring] alpaca wool socks.
[Carissa] Want some? I have more than enough to share. About 30" of it. I hate it.
[Spring] ugh
[Master] ouch
[Carissa] "It'll only be maybe 12" total!" my butt.
[Master] They can tell them that, they did not pass math so they will never know if it is wrong or not
[Carissa] Well the stupid storm shifted farther north than they expected. It was supposed to be the city hit harder than us...
[Master] Everyone knows to stay away from NYC at New Years
[Carissa] Only on New Years? Because I've discovering it's just stay away always.
[Master] I would only go if I really have to
[Master] the last time I spent most if it alone in the museums
[Master] while Nyrma was at a conference
[Spring] not me buddy
[Spring] i loe wandering NYC
[TMO] I've only been to NYC once for a day or two, never had a chance to wander it
[Spring] last time i did it, i found a rummage sale at a catholic church, it was charming
[Spring] it takes a strong sense of situational awareness
[TMO] had time to see the WTC hole and the Statue of Liberty, and that's all I remember.
[Spring] i listen to my gut when to get on or off a bus or subway
[Spring] love love love the subway 10,000
[Spring] never did get around to seeing the status of liberty. went to WTC before it was gone. haven't been back yet after
[Carissa] I think my problem is I seem to only go there for work, and it's not the nice parts I end up at :P
[Spring] *statue
[Spring] LOL

[Spring] take the ferry across and spend all day
[Lisa] Hello!
[Spring] NYC is my favorite city on the planet
[Spring] lake worth FL is my favorite town
[Spring] Chiang Mai, Thailand is my favorite mid-size city
[Carissa] Nahh DC is the best (minus certain, er, individuals there)
[TMO] DC and London are the two cities I've been able to just roam at will and explore.
[Spring] DC is mighty fine, i grant you that
[Spring] i have spent way too little time in London
[Carissa] Have not been yet
[Spring] just layovers really
[Carissa] I have more interest outside Europe. I really want to go back to South America
[Spring] hmmmm that sounds cool
[TMO] I have never been to S America
[Spring] i've been wanting to see Panama
[Spring] oooo! and Argentina!
[Carissa] Brazil is favorite, then Australia, then Europe. I need to get back to more travel outside N America
[Spring] i wanna see those mountains where the ladies play golf
[Carissa] ?
[Spring] with their big black hats
[Spring] lemme see if i can find a pic ...
[TMO] I've been to Sydney once, long ago
[Master] I would like to go to Antarctica via Agrentina to tick those two continents off the list
[Master] Michael will be in but later
[TMO] those are the only two I haven't been to also
[Spring] oh i stand corrected, peru, not argentina
[Master] so this is our group with Lara missing
[Master] I have not heard from Valerie yet
[Master] so starting with the story arcs that has some things to discuss and solve

[Carissa] Hi Valerie!
[valma-73412] HI everyone :-)
[Lisa] Hi Valerie
[valma-73412] How do I change my chat color?
[Spring] edit - preferences
[Master] so total expendetures for the Protecorate is currently: 35,770 GP
[Spring] then scroll down down
[Spring] https://www.pinterest.com/pin/814025701369414866/ she's not playing golf
[Spring] but i saw a picture of women dressed like her way up in the mountains, playing golf
[valma-73412] says it's purple...still green
[valma-73412] haha shows up purple, but green in my box, works
[Carissa] Waitt test against this
[Master] You do have 3,184 GP more to spend on the Governor's residence and the Shrine
[Carissa] Is that different enough?

[Lisa] green as you type and then the color changes
[Lisa] Hi Michael
[Master] and welcome Michael
[Spring] hi michael!
[TMO] wilkommen
[Carissa] I thinnk you have to restart kLoOge so it stops showing green first
[Carissa] Hi Michael!
[mharm-05997] Hello
[Branwyn (Lisa)] lots o' purple
[Carissa] Purple is best. Or at least tied with green as best.
[valma-73412] Green to purple feels like magic
[Lisa] lol
[valma-73412] Purple is the best
[Master] grins
[valma-73412] Ok I haven't done my reading, what did I miss or where should I look to find out?
[Master] So going to pause on the Protectorate talk
[Master] not yet Valerie
[Master] hang out and listen
[Master] Dragonslayers End of the Year Awards
[Master] John – 32/2 Fritz – 9/4 Mario – 4/1 Guy – 1/0 Mike – 7/1 Valerie – 0/10 Jamie – 0/1
[Master] That is the second half of the attendees this year
[Master] 14 players overall throughout the year
[Spring] wow
[TMO] what are the numbers around the slashes mean?
[Spring] that's more than i would have thought
[TMO] sry
[Master] the first number is the campaign, and then the second number is the Adventures in the Wastes stories
[Spring] i wondered taht to
[TMO] so 32/2 means?
[TMO] sorry, I'm dense today
[mharm-05997] 32 Campain Missions, 2 Adventures in the Wastes MIssions
[TMO] ok, thx
[mharm-05997] np
[Master] thank you Michael
[Master] and so
[Master] our newest player Lara 4/0 – 2,500 XP

[mharm-05997] Either or
[mharm-05997] :)
[TMO] congrats you three
Lisa claps
[Master] for Valerie that XP is added to the primary character as a bonus for the year
valma-73412 generally acting like a groupie
[mharm-05997] lol [Master] Then we have our top four group that are the lead players for 2020/2021
[valma-73412] how do you decide primary character?
[Master] That would be Kenna for Spring, Branwyn for Lisa, Talwin for Michael, etc.
[Master] and of our top four for the year
[TMO] each of us only have 1 primary character.
[Spring] in my case, it's the first character that i made that is still going
[Master] Spring 43/11 – 7,500 XP + 5,000 XP
[Carissa] (the character you rolled up and put effort into making)
[Spring] i made Snee later
[Carissa] (that we will hopefully meet soon)
[Master] and Spring has passed the 250 session mark
[Carissa] Wooo!
[Lisa] yay!
[Master] then Lisa 46/16 – 7,500 XP + 5,000 XP
[Master] With Lisa beign the second player to pass the 500 session mark
[mharm-05997] Almost to that next level there lisa :)
[Carissa] Wooo!
[mharm-05997] one day you might even cast "Wish"
[TMO] yay!
[Master] I am very grateful for everyone
[Master] TMO 49/1 – 7,500 XP
Lisa claps
[Master] as noted above he missed it by 1% from being here 30% of all sessions over the last 27 years
[Carissa] Woo..awwwww
[TMO] next week!
[Master] grins
[mharm-05997] Its honorary for the amount of offline time he puts in
[Master] and then for this year
[Master] Carissa – 50/16 – 10,000 XP + 5,000 XP
[Lisa] yay!
[Master] Carissa becomes only the second person to have 100% attendance twice
[Lisa] well done!
[mharm-05997] claps
[TMO] woot!
[Carissa] Do I woo myself?
[Spring] woo hoo!
[mharm-05997] yes
[Carissa] Wooo!
[Master] and Carissa passed the 200 session mark
[Spring] yassss!
[valma-73412] woos for all!
[Lisa] only the 2nd?
[mharm-05997] 
?itemid=15363908
[mharm-05997] for Carissa
[Master] Lisa made 100% twice and now Carissa has made it twice
[TMO] congrats y'all
[TMO] I've never done 100%
[Lisa] thought John had too
[Spring] nicely done!
[Master] he did it once
[Carissa] (404 error :( )
[mharm-05997] I can try, but I never seem to make it.
[mharm-05997] Ah, one sec Carissa
[mharm-05997] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FZrFq5qvEHM
[Master] and also which I am very happy about
[Master] Carissa celebrates 15 years in a row of a woman having the highest attendance
[mharm-05997] watch all 17 sec
[Carissa] Wooo!
[mharm-05997] Cariss has been here for 15 Years!!!?
[Carissa] (that episode was awesome)
[Master] no to Michael
[mharm-05997] What the hell I dind't know you played for that long!
[mharm-05997] oh
[mharm-05997] oops
[Master] but it has been 15 straight years of a woman being the highest attendance
[TMO] a woman, not the same woman
[Master] Lorie, Christy, Kaz, Lisa and Carissa
[mharm-05997] Sorry. I'm not exactly firing on all cylindars right now
[mharm-05997] :)
[valma-73412] we all look the same in the chat? lol
[Master] grisn at Valerie
[Carissa] You say that but you had to explain the slash thing to TMO...
[Carissa] lol Valerie
[Master] I am very happy to be inclusive
[mharm-05997] Shhh. Don't say anything
[mharm-05997] :)
[Lisa] does it have to be about that?
[Master] so congratulations to everyone
[Master] only sort of Lisa,
[Master] I want good players, I want fun players
[mharm-05997] In all seriosness Bob, i thought I did better then I did. I'm slipping because last year I think I had much better Rates. Sigh.
[Master] and also far too many groups out there shun women
[Master] Or sideline them
[mharm-05997] Also yes, but we pretend those don't exist
[mharm-05997] They aren't true d and d fans
[Master] we have always been open and equal and I am very happy about that
[mharm-05997] Also Bob is nice, if evil
[mharm-05997] you could say... Lawful Evil
[valma-73412] Proud to be with a group that has a bunch of lady players - I haven't known many other girl gamers in my life
[valma-73412] and glad you guys are cool with it
[Master] as is evidenced tonight, grins, 4 of the 6
[mharm-05997] More the merrier in my book. Also, you'll laugh, but uh, more people to take the hits from attacks :)
[Master] I am happy that Lisa and others do not notice, that it is not about 'making it easy for women to join' but just treating everyone equally
[Spring] heh
[mharm-05997] You are equal in your evil
[mharm-05997] :)
[Master] grins
[Master] and so on that note
[Master] the part up above on spending
[Spring] did i miss my percentage for this year?
[Master] I did not add those yet Spring
[Master] I will
[Spring] ah okay
[Spring] fanks!
[Spring] i was distracted looking for peruvian women playing golf in the mountains
[Master] grins
[Lisa] lol
[Spring] it's going to make me crazy
[Spring] i saw then in a national geographic once upon a time
[Master] so on your spending account from the treasury
[Carissa] well at least I know it's Peru even if I still don't know what you're talking abut
[Spring] and now the closest i can get is orthern italy
[Master] 3,595 spent so far
[Spring] 
[Spring] imagine these women in pervu colors
[Master] 32,175 more already committed
[Spring] *peru
[Master] then you wanted to spend 3,184 more for Snee
[Carissa] lol
[Master] all good and solid spending and in the budget so far
[Spring] so yeah, i'm amazed we went through so much money already
[Master] potential future spending includes 44,067 on a lighthouse
[Spring] oh construction projects, okay
[Master] to highlight you are taking this part of The Wastes
[Lisa] most of it isn't spent but booked to be spent on the road
[Master] BUT you do have the new silver mine to exploit
[Spring] there is that
[mharm-05997] (And potentailly other mines as well)
[Master] if you did not see in Discord over the week you have a nice resource
[mharm-05997] (We just have to find them)
[Carissa] (Michael keeps typing exactly what I'm going to say but faster...)
[Spring] hahahaha
[Carissa] (Maybe you can talk for me tonight)
[Master] grins
[mharm-05997] I type faster, but maybe not as accurately
[mharm-05997] lol
[Master] You need to spend on a smelter
[valma-73412] or you could just repeat it Carissa lol
[mharm-05997] Riddled with spelling mistakes in my excitement
[Spring] actually it may be more cost effective with the gnomes finding them
[valma-73412] maybe in goblin
[Master] 1 to 5 GP
[Master] and Laughs with Val
[Spring] my discord says how dare i connect while being this out of date
[Master] Good point to remember in a short bit Spring
[Master] sorry on that previous you have to spend between 1 to 5,000 GP on a smelter so you can actually get that silver from the ore
[Master] http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.NWP-Smelting
[Master] My go to is always the middle but I want to let the group discuss the options
Lisa is receiving the map Hillside 1...
Lisa has received the map Hillside 1.
[Master] You need to invest in a smelter how much do you want to spend?
[Carissa] Mining group still has 7 weeks to go before they catch up to moat group, correct?
[Master] Yes to Carissa
[Spring] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1bGrzlBIQX0
[mharm-05997] Please dn't skimp on smelter
[mharm-05997] so critical
[Lisa] it's just a matter of size
[Lisa] my thought is if you build a stonr smelter it isn't really movable and you'd have to build one at each mine or move the ore from one mine to the one with the smelter
[Lisa] if you do the second then I would say build themedium size one
[Lisa] just my thoughts to float along
[Spring] sounds legit to me
[mharm-05997] Hm. How far is the silver mine to Hourglass
[mharm-05997] roufghyl
[Master] mile or two
[Carissa] Remember we might have more mines further from there
[mharm-05997] wow. even for me that was bad
[Master] I understand Michael speak
[mharm-05997] Right. My thoughts are carting the more valuable ores directly here for two reason
[Carissa] If he can understand Ilero, he can understand anything
[Master] LOL
[Spring] hahahahaha
[TMO] huh
[TMO] :P
[Carissa] :)
[TMO] you're welcome?
[mharm-05997] 1. More valuable ore needs to be processes the best in order to obtain best value. Therefore, it is worth the expense of carting the silver to Hourglass
[Master] Character Quotes [Ilero]] (TMO) scratches his chin. "Huh. Hokay t'en. Hye guess you not need her knowledge of t'em." He nods his head in the direction of Marisu, sitting by herself on a rock. "But hye still need your help in morning. Wit' elves and Neit', hye guess. Branwyn ask me tell her 'bout her fat'er. Hye t'ink it good for her friends be t'ere when hye do." [Hugh D'Ambray (mharm-15549)] (Sorry one moment while I translate that into English) Ilero (TMO)] (what do you mean? that WAS English!)
[Carissa] (still one of the best)
[mharm-05997] 2. Ore unrefined is unlikely to be robbed via "Highway Robbery" because it is too much work
[Spring] hahahahahahaha
[TMO] :D
[Lisa] you want smelter in the town?
[mharm-05997] For lower value ores, a small smelter on site would be better for pig iron. From there, the pig iron can be carted for the better refinery
[mharm-05997] Yes
[mharm-05997] Absolutely
[mharm-05997] A mile away for a more Valuable Ore would be foolish not to take advantage of
[Spring] maybe on the outskirts?
[mharm-05997] Plus
[mharm-05997] Like the old mining boom towns
[mharm-05997] It booms the town economy when the teamsters and miners come in for drinking,
[mharm-05997] and stuff
[Lisa] How many smelters do you want to build?
[Lisa] thousands of gps
[mharm-05997] 1 really nice one for the most previous of ores.But, for the lesser ores, it doesn't make much difference unless you are doing something special
[Carissa] What if we find a gold mind 30 miles from Hourglass?
[Lisa] Bob only differentiates on size
[mharm-05997] I can't give a number because I'm not sure what cons. a older era smelter
[Master] for game mechanics a smelter is a smelter
[Lisa] they are all the same quality
[Master] yes to Carissa
[mharm-05997] Then shoot, one in town for special projects and for the local silver mine
[mharm-05997] everywhere else who gives a crap
[mharm-05997] I can quote you how much Freeport spends on a smelter :)
[mharm-05997] Including the Radioactive and Asbestos settlements build into the price lol
[Lisa] but this is not real like that
[mharm-05997] I knoow that's the joke :0
[Master] the idea is do you want to make your current silver mine the center of your mining activity intention and have your other mines feed into that location, then from there to the main road of Farmers Turn and Skull Church/Hourglass
[Lisa] small is 1000 gp and has a 4 miner capacity so wouyld get backed up with 8 miners
[Master] and smiles at Michael and Lisa knowing so much more than the rest of us
[mharm-05997] NO!
[mharm-05997] I do not
[Master] now Carissa knows what it is like for us
[Master] grins
[Lisa] medium is 2000 but has 20 miner capcity
[mharm-05997] I only know a few things really well
[Carissa] A headache?
[Spring] ha
[mharm-05997] I mean, if we are pointing fingers...TMO is a genius in my book
[Spring] i see the sense in what Lisa is saying about a medium smelter
[Master] no one is denying that
[Master] about TMO
[Master] nor about Lisa at this point either
[mharm-05997] I think having the nearby silver mine as a feeder is good. Because even when it runs out, the tunnels can be used for storage and processing
[Spring] and even employee housing
[Master] Good Point Spring we will come back to that housing and more importantly FEEDING portion soon
[mharm-05997] (now that I think about what I just typed. I think that came out wrong. You are all very smart and I was just trying to point out that I don't know everything and I'm not an arrogant ass. You know what I meant I hope)
[Master] sorry Valerie and Lisa this is the math portion of the game
[Carissa] (Cannibilism)
[Spring] no worries michael
[TMO] what has my geniosity to do with this? ;)
[Lisa] lol
[mharm-05997] That escalated quickly Carissa
[Spring] mmmm ymmmy people
[Carissa] lol
[TMO] sry, was arting
[Spring] heh
[TMO] posted it.
[Master] so key decisoin, build a medium smelter at the silver mine for 2,000 but only be able to process 20 miners worth of output OR a Large smelter at the silver mine for 5,000 and process 100 miners worth of output
[TMO] didn't spend a lot of effort customizing him, just took the defaults mostly.
[Master] OR build one medium now and one medium later
[Spring] i'm trying to find whatever was posted
[TMO] discord portrait-art
[Master] spend 4,000 on two to process 40 miners worth of work or spend 5,000 to process 100 miners worth of work
[Spring] oh okay
[Spring] i mistook him for that leprechaun from American Gods
[TMO] I should probably watch that some time
[Spring] i like the idea of building one now and one later on the proceeds
[Spring] and i love American Gods a lot
[TMO] yes, build up
[Carissa] Agree
[Spring] i love the book more, but still
[mharm-05997] I mean, the discounts are nice for a bigger one. It's like a theatre upselling the large popcorn for only 50 cents more when it's already like 10 diollars
[mharm-05997] At that poinkt, it's like why not
[Carissa] How quickly do you want to drain the mine? It seems that's part of it
[Lisa] you only have 8 miners - how many are you going to be adding?
[Master] 32 weeks total there in the mine
[Master] your 8 miners can empty it in 4 weeks
[Spring] oh wow, i imagined Ilero exactly how he looks
[mharm-05997] If we bring additional mines online, I would assume much more
[Master] if you push at full capacity
[mharm-05997] Probably 2 - 3 depending on how well we can explore
[Spring] does push at full capacity mean people die?
[Carissa] If you find that distant mine worth more, will money need to go into protect the ore to transfer?
[mharm-05997] But, a smelter is useful for refining and crafts as well
[mharm-05997] Remelting broken objects to freshly pour them [Master] no to Spring
[mharm-05997] etc.
[Lisa] so 8 miners can deplete the one mine in 4 weeks
[Master] these are just normal gnome workers
[Lisa] so how would there ever be 40 - 100 miners working at once?
[Spring] wow, if that's all, a medium smalter seems hardly justified
[Master] Lisa you could have three shifts working multiple mines
[Spring] we'lll have to have gnomes and ourselves scouting for more mines constatnly
[Master] 8 means two shifts of 4 working one mine
[mharm-05997] Hm. Would you settle for 2 smelters if the second one was dedicated to specifically to crafts? It can even be tiny if you want. That way just in case, perhaps it could help with overflow if we need additional processing capabilites
[mharm-05997] I think it's a happy medium
[Lisa] I'll go away
[mharm-05997] What no!@
[mharm-05997] Please don't
[mharm-05997] I'm sorry
[Lisa] not my cash or decision
[mharm-05997] We can jsut do one
[mharm-05997] Bob one
[Lisa] and this session is going too much planning - will be back
[Lisa] no Michael! do what you guys think is best
[Lisa] brb
[mharm-05997] "This is supposed to be happy occassion! Let's not argue about who planned who!"
[Master] LOL Michael
[Lisa] I'm not arguing and I don't want to plan for you
[Master] and yes Lisa hates planning
[Lisa] I don't want to plan at all
[Master] and yes this is a Michael and SPring thing
[mharm-05997] Well we love you and don't want you to leave entriely. Be back?
[Spring] i get what Lisa is saying
[Master] you two are the ones in charge for the Northwest Wastes, the Protectorate
[Lisa] if you ask questions I will just answer and that's not good for this
[mharm-05997] ok
[Spring] ok what if we put a small one in town and a medium at the mine
[Lisa] I am away from the keyboard.
[mharm-05997] I'm fine with it
[Spring] and the medium becomes our main refinery for the region
[mharm-05997] right
[Master] no need for two at this point Spring with the one mine
[mharm-05997] And lisa and bob are right, I just hate the idea of not having a backup.
[Master] you can build the Medium one at the Mine Complex to take care of all of your needs for now
[mharm-05997] I know it sounds stupic,
[mharm-05997] I'm just paranoid
[Master] THEN when you have built up more supply for your smelter you build a second smaller one
[Spring] we can wait until we get revenue from the silver mine before we do the small one?
[Master] or a second medium one
[Master] yes to Spring
[mharm-05997] Sounds fair to me. That way we are working up
[mharm-05997] And not going into debt
[mharm-05997] I wasn't trying to cause issues really
[Spring] no i understand
[Spring] you were having ideas and i like them
[Master] you are NOT causing issues Michael,
[Carissa] Just brainstorm. Not the same
[Master] what does cause issues if you do not speak up and tell everyone what you are thinking
[Master] give everyone lots of information
[Master] then everyone can process and make the best group decision
[mharm-05997] It's just awkward because at the end of the day, we are technically spending Dragon's Fen money. So, it makes snese that we would goa step at a time.
[Master] Lisa is staying out of it because this is yours and Spring's choices
[Master] but if you do this right you are MAKING money for Dragon Fen
[mharm-05997] Right
[Spring] i get it
[mharm-05997] But, we can also go a smaller steps at a time
[mharm-05997] So I like that Spring
[mharm-05997] One up and running and as we come along, we can build an adiditon perhaps smaller one
[Spring] i used to bail on a lot of the business Lisa had to conduct, because it had nothing to do with me. so i totally get it
[Spring] it helps to specifically state we want the smaller smelter in the plan for the future
[Spring] instead of just kind of hoping :-)
[mharm-05997] Also off topic, but this game has been going on since what the 90's bob? I've only been here 14.8 percent of the time. Huh
[mharm-05997] Right to Spring
[mharm-05997] :)
[Master] grins at Michael
[Master] I have paper older than you
[mharm-05997] Feels longer
[mharm-05997] maybe I just got so into it it feels longer IDK
[mharm-05997] We gotta up that percentage
[Master] some of my books are original printings of 1980ish
[mharm-05997] Anyways
[mharm-05997] pff. Of course you do. Look at mr. fancy pants over here! with his original prints! :)
[Spring] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nydS_PaNwXA
[Master] grins
[Spring] i am overcome how good music is right now
[mharm-05997] My dad has first edition Fellowship of the Ring that he would literally kill a robber for I think
[Spring] oh hell yeah
[mharm-05997] Special case and all
[mharm-05997] Music is really good for this year. Makes it a bit more bearable
[mharm-05997] Also Ringworld was fantastic bob. Finally got around to finishing it like three years after you leant it to me. Gotta ship it back to you
[Spring] omg ringworld!
[mharm-05997] Totally the inspritation for the Halo games
[Master] Keep it Michael
[mharm-05997] ...are you sure?
[Master] gift it to someone else if you wish
[Spring] wow
[Spring] so cool
[mharm-05997] Oh hell no. It's got a special place on my shelf if I get to keep it. I really like it
[TMO] if we go by age, I took 4 books from my parents when we packed them up, 1909, 1914, 1927, & 1934. not particualarly quality books, just old.
[TMO] Ringworld is awesome
[mharm-05997] People keep telling me I have to read Dune, but I just don't know
[mharm-05997] supposedly really good
[TMO] Dune can be a tough read, but is good.
[Spring] i haven't read it in many decades
[Spring] dunno if i would like it now
[Spring] at the time i loved it so hard
[TMO] well, the first is fine, some of the sequels are a bit sloggy.
[TMO] but that's just my opinion
[mharm-05997] Well, nothing is rougher then the Book of Leviticus, so it's probably better then that
[Spring] i used to love Asimov's Foundation series too
[Spring] and now i can't even remember how it goes
[mharm-05997] Add that to my list...
[Master] Foundation series coming out
[Master] SO to bring us back on track
[TMO] Foundation was okay, but not my favorite of his.
TMO falls off the track into the river
[Spring] hahahha
[mharm-05997] :)
valma-73412 has left the game on Fri Dec 18 20:31:21 EST 2020
[Master] we have "decided" that you will build a medium or small Smelter at the silver mine for the center of your mining efforts?
[mharm-05997] Yes
[mharm-05997] Spring?
[Spring] medium, please. even though that mine will get tapped out soon
[mharm-05997] TY
[Spring] it it's gonna be THE smelter, it should be medium
[Spring] the other one will be the sidekick in the future
[mharm-05997] the ONE smelter to rule them all
[mharm-05997] sure
[mharm-05997] it can be a lesser smelter
[mharm-05997] a mere mimicry
[Spring] hehehehe
[Spring] lyrics
[mharm-05997] lol
[Master] very well
[Master] so 2,000 GP spent
[Master] Now do you want to exploit the mine as quickly as possible?
[Spring] i don't think so
[mharm-05997] Maybe not too quickly. Gives us time to search for other minerals
[Master] it will take you one week for your characters to build the smelter leaving the gnomes to continue to mine
[Spring] now that the gnomes have a charter to scout mines of their own, they'll want to devote more resources to that
[Spring] and i'm okay with this mine goign gently
[Spring] if it's a flurry of cash, there could be a crash at the end
[Master] Valerie's battery died, will come back later as needed
[Spring] n ot that i know what i'm saying, just gut feeling
[mharm-05997] I think that's a very fair assessment
[Spring] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9l8zCOwEII
[mharm-05997] Also having a big pile of prcesses ore awaiting shipment makes an appealing target for robbery
[Master] One additional thing to consider is that every week the lead miner rolls a check to make sure the mine is producing normally
[Master] if it fails production is cut in half for that week
[Master] so exploit faster fewer checks
[mharm-05997] Are there other rolls to see if anything additional is extracted? Like an occasional diamond found or soemthing?
[mharm-05997] Wait. Silver? one second. Gotta check a textbook
[Master] no to Michael
[mharm-05997] NM then
[mharm-05997] :)
[Master] yes those are possible in related mines, I am keeping track of those ideas for this arc or geology
[Master] from the Quellcon mines in an arc across the northern wastes over and just past the gnome mining village
[Master] many potential mines
[Master] and of course when you dig deeper that opens up more opportunities too
[Master] This was a quick find near the surface
[mharm-05997] (Falls into Underdark)
[Master] the Quellcon Mines have been in operation for over a century
[mharm-05997] Delved to greedily, and too deep!
[mharm-05997] They even come with Goblins
[Master] sorry almost 300 years
[mharm-05997] Sorry. I'm loopy and having to omuch fun with ref. tonight
[Master] the key question is extract the 64,000 SP which is 6,400 GP out now then look for more mines
[Master] OR as you suggested take it out slower
[Master] in both cases you are looking for more mines
[mharm-05997] I give my vote for slower
[Spring] i like slower
[Master] OK
[Master] so 4 miners at a time
[Master] rather than 8
[Master] then the other question becomes TIff
[Master] Carissa you created
[Master] from the Wastes?
[Carissa] Si
[Master] so no need to feed to stay alive
[Master] HOWEVER
[Master] there are 11 slots for non farmers right now Baron Ulgin, Pete, Kaelin are taking up 3 of them
[Master] Tiff can take up one more of those
[Master] and become more beholden to Snee and Talwin
[Master] rather than to the gnome village
[Master] if they are the ones providing food and shelter
[Master] also Potoma
[Master] not from here correct?
[Master] and then Pete has three other apprentices
[Master] Shi is gone but there are two new people so that takes up one slot
[Carissa] Correct for Potoma
[Master] how does that sound so far?
[Carissa] Are 2 new temp? They wouldn't stay here
[Master] Your two new characters Carissa
[Carissa] Yes
[Carissa] I mean for slots
[Master] yes for slots they would be one (two) of the slots (gaining one slot for Shi not returning using two slots for two characters)
[Carissa] Okay not talking permanent residence then
[Master] Then the other two remaining slots are Brer and Sundown
[Master] so any new population needs to have a way of feeding them
[Master] building farms etc
[Master] Spring and Michael
[Master] you understand how that works?
[mharm-05997] Kind of
[Spring] sort of
[mharm-05997] Honestly, tonight will not be a good night for me to figure it all out
[Master] how can I make it clearer?
[Master] OK
[mharm-05997] Link to website
[mharm-05997] and I will favborite it
[Master] you can trust my math that it works out
[mharm-05997] I do trust
[mharm-05997] promise
[Master] the key is Tiff, the one open slot
[Spring] for sure
[Master] you can give Tiff that slot and make her the person in charge of yoru mining operations
[Master] the plusses are she now is more loyal to you for giving her provisions, a place and a higher athourity
[Spring] oh cool
[Master] the negative is it takes your last slot ever person you add from now on you need to build farms to feed them
[Master] every
[Master] and in the more fertile part of Dragon Fen it takes 35 farmers to give you 4 miners or other non farmers
[mharm-05997] Of which this is not
[Master] here in the Northern Wastes that is 70 farmers per 4 people
[mharm-05997] What about hog farmers?
[mharm-05997] instead
[Master] type of farmer is not relavant
[Master] EXCEPT
[Master] if you are talking dwarves and gnomes and goblins with fungus farms underground
[mharm-05997] huh
[Spring] oh
[Master] then you are dealing with creating space underground to farm
[Master] etc
[Master] which means you need to find/tunnel/mine more spaces faster
[Spring] so if someone wants to come onboard with us, we need to rotate someone out to Dragon Fen until we can supply more people?
[Master] exactly
[Master] or import food
[Master] currently Dragon Fen is self sufficient
[Spring] stick a pin in the fungus farming for when the silver mine is depleted
[mharm-05997] Well, in about 1500 years, we can do crop rotations, skysraper food towers, GMO's, steroids, hydroponics. etc. But in all seriosness, if we finish out the silver mine, we can probably bring in fungal people to help. That way, we are utilizing the
[mharm-05997] YES
[mharm-05997] you beat me to it
[Spring] hahahaha
[Master] So Carissa you are paying attention?
[Master] TMO you are here?
[TMO] I am
[Master] Thank you TMO
[TMO] not 100% engaged, but here
[Master] On the Skull Church page
[Master] there is a list of gnomes
[Master] Michael is about to roll 3d6
[Carissa] Yeah
[Master] 10 times
[Carissa] Ish
[Master] each of those is a Wisdom score
[Master] Carissa please help TMO add those to the site
[TMO] post to the Gnome Mining Group?
[Master] yes please
[Master] willpower
[Master] is the relevant stat
[mharm-05997] [10(3d6) [3d6=5,2,4] 11]
[mharm-05997] oof
[Carissa] Didn't roll right
[mharm-05997] I know
[mharm-05997] i'm thinking
[Carissa] lol
[Master] yes that is right Michael
[mharm-05997] oh ok
[Master] you get 3d6 no modifiers extra die etc
[mharm-05997] right.
[mharm-05997] but it didn't roll ten time
[Carissa] But that wasn't 10 times which I thought was the other part
[Master] then Carissa there are two more you are going to roll and add for Knowledge
[mharm-05997] right
[TMO] and this is WIS straight up, or Willpower?
[Master] WIS straight up
[mharm-05997] (10(3d6)) [3d6=2,1,3] 106
[mharm-05997] Ignore that one
[Master] so Carissa is going to roll two INT scores of 3d6 and then add those to two of the ten gnomes to create the two smelters
[mharm-05997] while I stumble around like a herion addicted monkey
Lisa has left the game on Fri Dec 18 20:59:03 EST 2020
[TMO] no no - a WIS 106 is good to have
[mharm-05997] lol
[Master] and laughs
[mharm-05997] I forget the formula
[Carissa] But TMO is already there and can add for me :)
[Master] yes he can but you have to roll
[Carissa] (3d6) [3d6=6,2,2] 10
[Carissa] (3d6) [3d6=2,3,5] 10
[TMO] who are those going on Carissa?
[Master] and bow you can help him with that
[Carissa] Eeny and Miney
[Master] now
[Master] Michael keep on rolling
[TMO] INT, right?
[Master] yes to TMO
[mharm-05997] I'll have to do it 9 more times. So, one second. I know theres and auto formula...
[Master] after this is done we will have TIff and this group
[mharm-05997] (3d6) [3d6=5,6,6] 17
[Carissa] (do a save and edit TMO so I can see which page you are on)
[mharm-05997] (3d6) [3d6=2,5,4] 11
[mharm-05997] (3d6) [3d6=1,3,1] 5
[mharm-05997] (3d6) [3d6=2,5,1] 8
[mharm-05997] (3d6) [3d6=2,3,4] 9
[mharm-05997] (3d6) [3d6=1,5,3] 9
[mharm-05997] (3d6) [3d6=1,3,6] 10
[mharm-05997] (3d6) [3d6=4,5,4] 13
[Master] for the Mining cohort that the Governor of the Northern Wastes has at her disposal
[mharm-05997] (3d6) [3d6=2,3,6] 11
[mharm-05997] done
[TMO] posted and saved
[Master] and Spring gets to make the choice (and roll the dice) for the mine exploitatoin and looking for new mines
[Master] Thank you TMO and Carissa
[mharm-05997] (Plus a 106 wise gnome that somehow ascended to godhood in one of the mines)
[Master] and now Michael and Spring have the group to deal with
[Master] TMO you might want to add Tiff to that mining list on the page
[Master] not sure she is there
[Spring] yes we want to explore
[Spring] i was in favor of letting the gnomes do it all but we're gonna tap this mine out sooner than i thought
[Master] also I short ciruited Carissa introducing her two new characters that will resume next session
[TMO] I added Tiff to the Interesting People
[Carissa] Two weeks from now
[Master] Thank you TMO
[Master] yes to Carissa no game next week two weeks we pick up
[Master] which is why we are zooming through this now
[Spring] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LNTh8skeWDA
[Master] so that next session is all roleplay and doing
[Master] so Tiff is in charge of the mining operations for Snee
[Master] 4 gnome miners at the Lucky Dwarf Mine
[Master] working away
[Master] Carris please roll a d100
[Carissa] (d100) [1d100=21] 21
[Carissa] Did I want low or high? If high please take Michael's 106 instead
[Master] ok so there is 21 feet to dig out to start actually producing on this mine, the goblins did not make it that far
[Master] plus they had no smelter
[Master] that you are aware of
[Carissa] Oh good, low is better
[mharm-05997] hehe
[Master] starting the mining operation on 9-2-349
[Master] it takes 4 weeks of mining, so 4 gnomes means 1 week to get to the spot where you can start producing, during that one week you build your medium smelter
[Master] 18-2-349 the Lucky Dwarf Mine starts to produce silver
[Spring] yeehaw!
[Master] now TMO what gnome is the best one to make the checks for the mine production including Tiff
[TMO] Wis, I assume? Aiko Barkhide
[TMO] also has Int 1
[TMO] 10
[TMO] wis 17
[Master] ok
[Master] so Michael make that roll a d20 and roll low
[mharm-05997] no pressure
[mharm-05997] (1d20) [1d20=20] 20
[Carissa] LOL ouch
[mharm-05997] fuck this
[Master] grisn so half prodction
[Master] next week is?
[Master] roll again
[mharm-05997] Hell no
[mharm-05997] Someone else roll
[Carissa] Critical hit means he gets to roll again right? ;)
[mharm-05997] (1d20) [1d20=20] 20

[TMO] just think Michael, you're getting all your Nat 20's out of the way, so next time you can roll all the 1's and 2's you want and it will balance out! ;)
[Master] and laughs with TMO
[mharm-05997] Gee. Thanks
[mharm-05997] Anyway. Merry Xmas or Happy Holidays :)
[Spring] haha
[mharm-05997] I couldn't wish for a better group of friends :)
[Spring] hope you feel better soon!

[mharm-05997] Nighty night :) And yes you will...
[Spring] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=W9YNkE_JOhA
mharm-05997 has left the game on Fri Dec 18 21:19:38 EST 2020
[Master] OK so SPring 4 more checks please
[Spring] (1d20) [1d20=3] 3
[Spring] hahaha
[Master] That will bring Mine Production up to equal with the moat filling crew
[Spring] (1d20) [1d20=3] 3
[Spring] (1d20) [1d20=16] 16
[Spring] (1d20) [1d20=20] 20
[Master] so 9 and a half weeks of production done
[Spring] i hardly broke a sweat
[Master] out of 16 total weeks
Lisa has joined the game on Fri Dec 18 21:23:19 EST 2020
Lisa is receiving the map Hillside 1...
Lisa has received the map Hillside 1.
[Master] OK so welcome back Lisa
[Lisa] I am back at the keyboard.
[Master] We need you to roll a D20 please
[Master] lower than a 17 if you can
[Master] 6 times in a row
[TMO] maybe you can do it, no one else can
[TMO] ;)
[Lisa] Hello again
[Carissa] Hello! Please roll well. It's been an interesting night.
[Carissa] We do not need more 20s
[Lisa] not me rolling
[Lisa] didn't think you were talking to me
[Carissa] lol everyone else has
[Lisa] Roll #1: (d20) [1d20=12] 12
[Master] 50% of the time they roll a 20
[Master] has been crazy
[Master] keep on going
[Carissa] And yet we weren't fighting anything...
[Master] need 5 more
[Lisa] Roll #1: (d20) [1d20=3] 3
[Lisa] Roll #1: (d20) [1d20=9] 9
[Lisa] Roll #1: (d20) [1d20=10] 10
[Lisa] Roll #1: (d20) [1d20=14] 14
[Lisa] Roll #1: (d20) [1d20=11] 11
[Carissa] Lisa should have been doing all these rolls apparently
[Master] excelent
[Lisa] okay?
[Master] and then one more to round off the final week
[Lisa] Roll #1: (d20) [1d20=2] 2
[Master] so on 17-8-349 the Lucky Dwarf Mine runs empty
[Master] adding that to the calendar now
[Master] you had 4 gnomes working that plus one smelter
[Master] Carissa you assigned a smelter, make that check for this pile of ore
[Carissa] How?
[Carissa] (d20) [1d20=20] 20 just guessing
[Carissa] COME ON
[Master] LOL
[Master] LOL
[Spring] hahahahahahahahahahahaha
[Spring] hhaha
[Spring] hahahahah
[Master] and so again please
Spring points and laughs
[Carissa] Is this a curse?? Can we just skip this and go fight things??
[Carissa] (d20) [1d20=12] 12
[Master] So in the catasrophic failure of the smelter you lose (1d1000) [1d1000=599] 599 worth of silver coins
[Carissa] Sorry :(
[Master] so 60 GP less than you could have gotten out of the mine
[Master] SO those 5 gnomes are now not usable they are busy working
[Master] Tiff and the other 4 gnome miners can go look for a new mine now
[Master] starting on 10 -2 -349
[Master] so Tiff or who is your best chance at finding a new mine?
[Carissa] Tiff is only 7? Did someone else have the ability to look?
[Master] You and TMO assigned numbers
[Master] Lisa while you were gone they did well at getting almost everything they could out of the Lucky Dwarf Silver Mine
[Master] adn now are looking for others to exploit
[Master] the medium smelter has been built and is in operatoin
[Master] the cost of running that will be tallied later
Carissa is receiving the map Hillside 1...
Carissa has received the map Hillside 1.
[TMO] Tiff has a WIS of 10
[Master] brb restroom
[Master] I am away from the keyboard.
[Spring] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oi3Gv1udO5Y OMG i started out nissing NYC and now it's severe
[TMO] so I assume it's still Aiko, unless she's busy
[Master] I am back at the keyboard.
[Master] Who ever you picked before
[TMO] that's her. WIS 17, INT 10
[Master] is busy with the Lucky Dwarf Mine
[Carissa] Had to look up what mining went off
[Master] and is not available
[Master] second group out looking for a new mine
[TMO] Selniana is WIS 13, next best
[Carissa] Anyone higher than 10 for WIS is better than Tiff
[Master] I am away from the keyboard.
[Lisa] kenna is the priest
[Lisa] hope she has high wisdom
[Spring] oh right
[Spring] looking, but i think it's 14
[Carissa] Think they need the mining prof though, right?
[Carissa] Although can Kenna bless/chant to boost?
[Spring] she has 15 WIS and can bless or chant if it helps
[Spring] no minign prof, everything is in healing cookery stuff
[Lisa] did you name the gnomes?
[TMO] someone did
[Lisa] all these new names
[Carissa] Bob
[Spring] https://youtu.be/v1c2OfAzDTI
[Lisa] :-)
Spring rocks out
[Master] I am back at the keyboard.
[Master] Just to finish off the Lucky Dwarf Mine you managed to excavate an additional 90 feet into the rock there
[Master] worth of silver plus the original 21 feet you had to dig to get to it
[Master] so 110 feet of mining was accomplished over the 17 weeks
[Master] and then you have 4 more gnomes plus Tiff and the rest of the group to go look for a new mine
[Master] which gnome is making the check adn who is rolling for that gnome?
[Master] and yes Tiff with her very mediocre stat has now been promoted to Head of Mining Operations
[Master] to be over those with better skills
[Master] thus starting a trend that will last for centurys
[Master] Centuries
[Spring] you just defined management
[Lisa] yes
[Master] actually you did
[Master] grins
[Master] to move on Tiff leads a group of miners out to find a new mine
[Master] TMO and Carissa can give us the right gnome who is looking
[Master] and then which player will make the rolls for that gnome?
[TMO] wis 13 is the next highest
[TMO] Selniana
[Carissa] Selniana
[Master] starting on 10-2-349
[Master] who is rolling?
[Carissa] Lisa has defied the curse so far
[Master] Lisa roll a d20 to see if you can find a mine this week as Selniana
[Lisa] Roll #1: (d20) [1d20=8] 8
[Master] LIsa is on a roll
[TMO] glad somebody is
[Master] so you find a second mine
[Lisa] yay!
[Carissa] Woo!
[Master] ((1d4)/2) [1d4=1] 0.5
[Master] only a half mile away from the Lucky Dwarf Mine
[TMO] oh, wait, it's only a coin
[Lisa] nice
[Master] right away on the first week
[TMO] somebody dropped a penny
[Master] (1d4) [1d4=1] 1+5
[Master] so on the 16th
[TMO] OH, and a Nickel!
[Carissa] lol
[Master] and now the big one
[TMO] anybody got a dime?
[Master] this is a roll of a d100 for the products higher the better
[Carissa] So anyone but Lisa
[Lisa] lol
[Spring] fffffffvvgggggggggggggggggggggggg------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
[TMO] MICHAEL!
[Spring] sorry, cat
[TMO] (1d100) [1d100=26] 26
[Lisa] ouch
[TMO] *5
[Carissa] ...I was going to suggest Spring, loo
[Carissa] i think she hit one or two more 20s than you ;)
[Lisa] I was going to have Spring's cat roll
[Carissa] lol
[Spring] hahahaha
[TMO] I hadn't rolled anything yet, wasn't sure which way the curse was working on me
[Master] so a copper mine
[TMO] pennies
[Carissa] Oooh...so yes, she did roll more 20s than you since you didn't roll. I thought you did
[TMO] nope
[Master] now a d10 please TMO
[Spring] https://youtu.be/tE-cIUPhJYg
[TMO] (1d10) [1d10=3] 3
[TMO] yep. I'm on this end of the curse
[Master] 250 CP per miner per week
[TMO] 26 rounds to 3 when you divide by 10
[Carissa] But that evens us out! You and Lisa low, Spring and me high
[Spring] 20s and 3s over and over
[Master] so now
[Carissa] At least none of us are average
[Master] you know where a mine is
[Master] you can choose to explore this one or look for another
[TMO] gotta catch 'em all
[TMO] just finished Enola Holmes. Wasn't bad. Not going to be a blockbuster, but not bad.
[Spring] i'm sure i'll get around to it
[Master] I have it logged on the calendar and mining operations page for you
[Master] you can do another week of looking for new mines
[Spring] we don't have manpower to staff this one
[Master] and or spend time to try to explore this one
[Spring] so we may as well scout other ones
[Master] try to find a more valuable one
[Master] and so who will make that roll?
[TMO] thinking we go for platinum next
[TMO] which do we need, high or low?
[Carissa] Low
[Lisa] that would be nice
[Carissa] So you or Lisa
[Master] low to find then high when checking the type of mine
[TMO] alright, I'll roll first. what kind of die? 2?
[TMO] 20
[Master] 20
[Master] yes for a mining check
[Lisa] stop saying that
[TMO] 20
[TMO] :P
[TMO] (1d20) [1d20=11] 11
[Master] sucess again
[Carissa] Woo!
[Lisa] yay
[Master] This time ((1d4)/2) [1d4=4] 2 miles away
[Master] now a d100 rolling high
[Carissa] Spring
[Carissa] and/or Emmy
[Master] grins
[Carissa] If Spring is still here...
[TMO] maybe the cat dragged her aeway
[Carissa] (d100) [1d100=11] 11
[Carissa] ....
[Carissa] So we wait for Spring, agreed?
[TMO] yes, definitely
[Spring] sorry i was rocking out
[Spring] what do i need to roll?
[Master] need a d100
[Spring] (1d100) [1d100=92] 92
[Carissa] Yeah! We wait for Spring!
[Lisa] yay!!!!
[Master] (1d7) [1d7=6] 6+4
[Spring] i dedicate that roll to Hot Chip
[TMO] and this is why we waited
[Carissa] Yep
[Master] a silver mine
[Master] Time of Day: 01:09 PM. Day 26 Ko ___ se, Sow {Late Spring} 26th, 349 SKR.
[Lisa] have to roll 99 to get gold?
[Lisa] 92 was pretty high
[Master] 93 and higher is Gold Platinum Mithril and Gems
[Lisa] wow
[Spring] aw mang
[Carissa] Awww
[Carissa] Does blessing or chant help? We talked about that if it did...
[Master] BUT
[Lisa] so super hard to get
[Master] now you need a d10 for the Quality
[Master] and yes if you want to use a Bless you can
[Master] because Kenna is there
Spring is receiving the map Hillside 1...
Spring has received the map Hillside 1.
[Master] BUT overall will not really matter
[Master] as it is a 5% boost
[Master] and this is a 10% chart
[Carissa] Wasn't sure if it'd push it to 93. If was just if it would be useful
[Master] BUT using Bless and if you roll a 10 then it will help
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] Kenna Westfoot casts a spell against : Bless/Curse: For 6 rounds, attack rolls and saves vs fear receive a +1 bonus.
[Spring] I am back at the keyboard.
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] (1d10) [1d10=6] 6
[Master] 400 SP per week
[Master] So this group is still 3 weeks behind Howard learning spells, 3 1/2 months behind the moat being finished
[Master] so you can keep on looking
[Master] OR you can explore this mine to see how long this one might last
[Master] You can look for more potential mines
[Master] while you are on a roll
[Master] and then decide which to exploit later
[TMO] your turn for low roll Lisa, or still me?
[Lisa] up to you
[TMO] I'll do one more - you did several earlier
[Lisa] sure
[TMO] I have a feeing I might go the wrong way though
[Carissa] Same...
[TMO] (1d20) [1d20=9] 9
[TMO] nope
[Lisa] it worls!
[Carissa] Woo!
[TMO] I was wrong. yay!
[Carissa] Spring for high
[Master] and this is ((1d4)\2) [1d4=2] -1
[Kenna Westfoot (Spring)] what am i rolling?
[Master] a half mile south of the Lucky Dwarf Mine
[Spring] what am i rolling?
[Master] d100
[Spring] (1d100) [1d100=76] 76
[Spring] aw heck
[Master] Iron mine
[Carissa] No no, still better than anything any of us would roll
[Carissa] For that one
[Master] d10
[Spring] (1d10) [1d10=7] 7
[Master] 1600 coins a week
[TMO] platinum?
[Master] so in the last month you have found 2 silver mines, 1 copper mine and 1 iron mine all within two miles of Skull Church
[Spring] very nice
[Master] want to look for another one?
[Spring] i'm in favor. what about yáll?
[Carissa] If we have the time and rolls, why not?
[Master] you can make that check
[Carissa] Who?
[Lisa] tmo
[TMO] 20?
[TMO] (1d20) [1d20=11] 11
[Master] and so yes another mine
[Master] see these gnomes know what they are doing
[Master] on the 16th you find a .....
[Master] d100
TMO runs away
[Carissa] (Still Spring, lol)
[Spring] (1d100) [1d100=42] 42
[Spring] aw man
[Master] Lead
[Spring] hahahaha
[Spring] we can make paint and bullets
[Carissa] Just don't put it in the water
[Lisa] we can invent pencils!
[Master] d10
[Spring] (1d10) [1d10=4] 4
[Master] 700 coins
[Spring] this is just killing me, i'm wtaching it twice https://youtu.be/eu0KsZ_MVBc
[Spring] the kid is adorable
[Lisa] could the silver mine be worth a lot of the roll for the life of the mine goes well?
[Master] so you have found 5 mines total, two silver, 1 copper, 1 iron and 1 Lead
[Master] You have not explored any of them except the first silver mine you found
[Master] to know how exensive they might be, who might be living there, etc.
[Spring] true fact
[Master] the calendar is updated now also
[Master] http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.ClaimingSkullChurch
[Master] Howard's training is almost done
[Master] 2 and a half more months before the moat is completed
[Master] the earliest Shi could have come back has passed
[Master] the first payment for the path was paid
[Master] LIsa you want to roll for Branwyn's spells?
[Lisa] sure
[Master] 1d2 4 times totalled
[Branwyn (Lisa)] (thought you meant to learn rolls)
[Master] that too but will not be until you know how many days
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Roll: (4d2) [4d2=2,2,1,2] 7
[Master] now your check to know the spell
[Branwyn (Lisa)] Branwyn: Learn Spell check: (d100) [1d100=13] 13 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 85!!

[Master] we know that over the course of the next month Howard will complete training, and Branwyn will then learn two new spells
[Master] Lisa do you want to make Howard's rolls now?
[Master] for his Research?
[Branwyn (Lisa)] ok
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Howard Plum: Research check: (d20) [1d20=11] 11 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 12!!
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] whew!
[Master] excllent
[Master] so Alarm at a 52% chance of learning on the first week
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Howard Plum: Thaumaturgy check: (d20) [1d20=6] 6 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 10!!

[Master] 57%
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] roll now or later?
[Master] now is good
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Roll #1: (d100) [1d100=73] 73

[TMO] huzzah
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Roll: (3d6) [3d6=4,3,2] 9
[Master] doing the counting on the calendar but 900 GP, of which 450 gets added to the library value
[Spring] brb
[Spring] I am away from the keyboard.
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] going to have to send him to work for the Dragonslayers to pay off his spells!
[Master] OK so now
[Master] want to roll the Irritatoin check?
[Master] his two potential boosts first
[Master] starts at 45%
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Howard Plum: Research check: (d20) [1d20=7] 7 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 12!!

[Spring] I am back at the keyboard.
[Master] 1200 GP and 600 to library value
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] last one?
[Master] yeap
[Master] first two rolls
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Howard Plum: Research check: (d20) [1d20=2] 2 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 12!!
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Howard Plum: Thaumaturgy check: (d20) [1d20=5] 5 - ROLL SUCCEEDED against 10!!

[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Roll #1: (d100) [1d100=95] 95
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] eek
[Master] so again
[Master] week 5
[Carissa] (It was a mine check! We've hit platinum boys!)
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Howard Plum: Research check: (d20) [1d20=20] 20 - ROLL FAILED against 12!!
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Howard Plum: Thaumaturgy check: (d20) [1d20=13] 13 - ROLL FAILED against 10!!
[TMO] woo!
[Master] 39%
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] (ok - if he fails he'll stop)
[TMO] platinum bathtubs for everyone!
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Roll #1: (d100) [1d100=57] 57
[Carissa] Ouch
[Master] OK so he spent 5 weeks so far and 10 d6 for costs
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] that was going to be a fun spell
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] *sigh*
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] should have had Bran do it and train him
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Roll: (10d6) [10d6=5,4,6,1,6,4,2,5,3,2] 38
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] ouch
[Master] You can go another week if you want
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] it's amazing he learned 2 spells
[Master] already in for 3800 GP
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] so expensive
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] like a vegas trip
[Master] chuckles
[Master] up to you
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] just one more time!
[Carissa] lol
[TMO] what good is money if you don't spend it
[Carissa] To buy platinum bathtubs
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] would be cheaper I think for Bran to learn it in a week and then have him pick it up off her book - just don't like all the spell duplication :(
[TMO] exactly
[Master] It will be another 800 to 4800 for one more week of research and 39-49% chance to learn
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] 1 more week?
[Carissa] Head yes, tails no
[Carissa] If you still want to gamble ;)
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] lol
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] A flip of the ol' kLoOge.Coin results in: Tails
[Carissa] Awww and there goes her streak... unless she goes two out of three
[Master] you tell me
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] grrr hate to spend the money for nothing but it is Howard ...
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] so who knows how long this could take
[Carissa] lol
[Carissa] Can also do a few test rolls to see if your luck is really gone before you decide
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Roll #1: (d100) [1d100=77] 77
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] or get the bad rolls out of the way
[Carissa] True
[Master] It is up to you Lisa
[Master] wry grin
[Carissa] You know you want to try one more week
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] I do and don't
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] part of me wants Branwyn to walk in, smack him upside the head and just do it in one week (hopefully)
[Master] it is only 1d6*100 GP per week from this point onward
[Master] you have already spent the 3,800
[Master] just adding to that
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] yeah Howard learning a spell is like exhausting a mine
[Carissa] lol
[Master] So a good thing there are four more out there then, grins
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] lol
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] all right maybe he will get lucky
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Howard Plum: Research check: (d20) [1d20=13] 13 - ROLL FAILED against 12!!
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Howard Plum: Thaumaturgy check: (d20) [1d20=14] 14 - ROLL FAILED against 10!!
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] nope
[Carissa] Not over yet...
[Master] now another d100
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Roll #1: (d100) [1d100=79] 79
[Carissa] ....
[Master] and sorry
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Howard sucks
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Roll #1: (d6) [1d6=2] 2
[Carissa] You spent all your good rolls on the mines. Poor Howard.
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] at least that was low
[Spring] :-(
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] he's done
[Master] OK so totals for that are 6,100 GP for learning spells half of which goes to the overall value of the library
[Master] but still you have to pay out that 6,100
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] I know
[Carissa] he's just checking that there was salt in that wound ;)
[Master] which is ironically just under what the Lucky Dwarf Mine brings in at 6,340 GP
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] but he now has an invisibility spell and an alarm spell so he's trying to be useful
[Carissa] nice!
[Carissa] what didn't he learn?
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] I just really wanted him to learn a spell that would trip people and make them fall down
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] Fumble
[Master] http://www.dragonslayers-society.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php?n=Main.ClaimingSkullChurch
[Carissa] Ahh would have been nice
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] thought it would be fun
[Carissa] Guess he'll have to just stick out his foot like normal people do
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] lol
[Master] Time of Day: 01:09 PM. Day 16 Mid ___ tre, Lec {Early Summer} 16th, 349 SKR.
[Spring] hahaha
[Master] So one last thing we need to settle up on for costs
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] we will make more money once we turn the ore into products and sell them though, correct?
[Master] 5,595 has been spend on construction of things including the smelter
[Master] plus an additional payment of 894 for the path
[Howard Plum (Lisa)] we take 6300 silver and make stuff to sell in Loosend or Rivers Bend etc
[Master] 6,489 total GP spent so far out of the Protectorate treasury
[Master] That is the next step of the process Lisa yes
[Carissa] Mara is a jeweler who lives nearby...
[Master] so SPring you can subtract that 6,489 from the treasury
[Master] Lisa will subtract that other ammount from Dragon Fen
[Master] and deal with the library additions
[Master] and that brings us all up to day on 16-3-349 the day you discover the Lead Mine
[Master] Lisa has her future dates set now
[Master] for Branwyn and Howard, Indigo is up in the air
[Master] you are still a month away from the earlist Branwyn can participate in anything
[Master] and 4 months for Howard
[Master] and just under 3 months from the moat being finished
[Lisa] have to post what Indigo's been up to - was going to and forgot
[Spring] i'm probably too drunk
[Master] and more than a year to finishing the path construction
[Master] This is a good place to end for the night
[Spring] i am confused about where exactly to take 6,489 out of
[Carissa] Si falling asleep
[Master] that can be done later
[Master] it is here in the log now so we know it
[Master] have a great night everyone
[Carissa] Night!
[Master] enjoy your holidays and see you on the 1st
[Spring] oh okay good night!
[Master] we are playing on the 1st
Carissa has left the game on Fri Dec 18 23:12:30 EST 2020
Spring has left the game on Fri Dec 18 23:12:39 EST 2020
