When you die, it's time to see a man about a God, and get another one.
Every Renewal event (big one I've just been too) you survive also grants a Veteran Ability, giving you more stuff your character can do.
I started out as a fairly generic fighter, with a smidge of healing magic. I have now diversified into Crafting, so I can make stuff, plus two odd skills, Forage and Scrounge - those get me items I can sell or use. Next event I get another, and not 100% sure what I want to take. Might boost up my Crafting, as I can do more.
In particular, want to catch and skin something with Natural Armour, see if I can make a more effective light or medium armour, as any heavier and you can't cast.... Reckon might need some Ritual Magic, but if I can offer that protection, it's totally worth it. And I'll be able to sell such for a fethtonne of munneh!!
How did your wasp repellant do?
Sodding bar steward Wasps didn't even show up!
Also, turned out to be well, well busy, and didn't really have time to do my Crafting. Only takes an hour and half of physical roleplay, but needs to be uninterrupted. But always next event, which is our Faction Parliament. That ought to provide what I needs!
Come to think of it, didn't get to torture anyone either! Boo!
A weekend without tourture! Wellity what a wasted bank holiday
Yup. But discussions with the Inquisition did open up the potential of flaying the Natural Armour to make yet moar Faction Ming!
Also, now watched Doctor Who. Time to resurrect a thread!
but did you kill anyone?
Managed to job a few monsters. Not as many as last time, as on our battle a lot of them were resistant to mundane weapons. But those cannibals proper got it when I got close enough!
How cool are these [URL="http://bretonmage.tumblr.com/post/95765554257/thedancave-dungeons-and-dragons-achievements"]D&D achievements[/URL]?
Might also work for larping eh Mystery?
Only achievements of worth?
Is that all you've got? - Survive a battle.
Order of the Brown Trousers. - Be terrored three times during a single encounter.
It's only a crime if you get caught - Succesfully mug a player character on the path and get away with it.
some of those had me LOLing....Quote:

"He was no angel, he was caught on camera being alleged to do something that later turned out to be a complete fabrication but we are going to include it anyway"
"Aw but our serial murdering white guy was totes a decent chap really, you ought to think about that before condemning him for being a serial killer!"
No that's not racist at all...
how's the situation in Ferguson anyway? German news pretty much ceased what little reporting there was days ago...
Tumblr will probably give you a lot of stuff.
Yes but how much of it is true?
What could be claimed to be the riots could be a riot elsewhere or elsewhen.
The pictures of Syria being tagged as last night in gaza for instance.
Or Arma 2 shots being used for real footage of what was happened in NI.
That last one was ITN :D
Yeah there is all that to contend with.
A lot of it was verified by journalists, not to mention the police and mainstream press have been caught omitting and lying almost constantly. Taking photos of a skull fracture from a university website and using them to claim they were injuried suffered by the police officer in a fight with the victim for example, the whole thing about protesters turning violent when they ahve been the aggressors every time. I trust the people tweeting from Ferguson a lot more than I trust white supremacist government agencies.
In Russian Federation Boarder move you!

On Aug. 17, the page “Support Officer Darren Wilson” was created by his supporters on the crowd-funding platform GoFundMe.com. Even though Wilson has not been arrested, supporters say the funds will be used to cover his legal fees. Within seven days, the page raised $234,910 from 5,901 people. It was closed on Aug. 22 after reaching its goal.
Comments by donors:

when people complained to gofund me as a breach of ToS:
http://31.media.tumblr.com/46f07aaa1...89oo8_1280.png
When called on this, and how it violates their ToS, GoFundMe’s response was to delete the hateful, disgusting, racist comments from the donations. They refused to end the campaign. Apparently it is only “promoting hate, violence, racial intolerance, or the financial exploitation of a crime” if people can see the deplorable sentiments behind the donations (don't forget GFM gets a 5% cut).
The second fundraiser lists it as beign by "Shield of Hope", but that is actually Missouri Police Union’s 501(c)(3) non-profit charity, who are acting as an intermediary for Darren Wilson so that people can donate tax-free. The Ferguson Police Department is directing people to send donations to it.Quote:
A new fundraising page, “Support Officer Wilson,” was opened on Aug. 23 by a local police union. In two days, it has raised more than $130,000 from 2,973 people. Supporters also recently held a rally outside a St. Louis’ local news station, selling T-shirts with the message “Officer Darren Wilson. We Stand By You. 8-9-14.” The T-shirts, on sale for $20, reportedly sold out.
Darren Wilson, who is still employed and currently on paid leave (tho technically it’s not “leave”. He’s still listed as being on active duty) has been donated more money than the [URL="http://www.gofundme.com/justiceformikebrown?_ga=1.127070285.1735433001.140 9058993"]Michael Brown memorial fund[/URL] - which is supporting the Brown family with legal costs and other expenses.

At Ferguson the people are still protesting, police raided the town's chuch several times that had been set up with medical supplies to take care of people who had been gassed, with the police "seizing" food and medical supplies for reasons (ie the police walked into a church and robbed it).
They also established that the first amendment is limited:

the above being the designated media area.
And speaking of media the NY Times writer [URL="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/08/25/ny-times-michael-brown-mistake-john-eligon_n_5711147.html"]has admitted his article was perhaps not well worded[/URL].
I think I need to re-read this when Gott's pictures aren't blocked.
found the latest from ferguson

I laughed at that too much. Then had to rty and explain to my boss why it was funny
How did the explanation go?
I gave up.
I spent 10 minutes trying to explain why I used a particular field in the database as a reference time when it was the only time reference in the whole table
*head desk*
Another few minutes explaining that what she was mithering about was not a problem, but a sympom of a known issue that was already being worked on.
I hates this place sometimes.
Does anybody actually enjoy working?
The last 3 weeks while boss was away was pleasant.
Things always run smother once you've gone through correcting their deliberate cockups left for you the first week to show just how much you need them?
Well I complained that my expenses weren't approved because she hadn't set up a subsitute. They are now approved. I didn't get a "Sorry" I got "Well how am I supposed to know that I need to set one up".
And the secretiveness begins...
Washup testing meeting, just had to prise information away from her.
Urgh.
I do.Quote:
