Yeah, my head hasn't been screwed on right the past few weeks.

The ears are supposed to be on the side. Don't worry. I had trouble with that part too

Well, that sounds painful.

Anyway, I can't wait for the next round!

Sorry to hear that man.


And it looks like your votes actually make it so the final two entries are exactly the same as before your vote. xD


Anyways, without further ado:

Didnt his vote put mutagenic madness or whatever ahead of the other lower ones, putting it in the top three? Or were you only shooting for two results?

His vote put Mutagenic Madness in at 4 votes. But he then voted for Third and Gamer's, which knocked them up to 5 and 6 respectively, returning them to being the two highest as they were before his votes.

Gotcha. Were only looking for two then. I recalled the previous votes we'd vote a certain amount of times, and get that number back to choose from. I was just making sure there shouldn't be 3 up, since when it was the 2 highest before, it looked like it was because of the tie between the other three. Just me misunderstanding!

I felt 10 to 5 to 2 was just a better progression than 10 to 5 to 3. Just felt things would work better in the end if opinions were split between 2 camps instead of 3. Mind you, if there had been any ties, I'd have just rolled to see what made it to the final round or what have you to tie break.

After we decide May's though we'll doing voting immediately after for June and I'm going to break that down as 14 to 7 to 4 to 2.

(working on a PEACH for your Bard, by the way. )

I look forward to it, but please take your time.

Gotcha! Just making sure we were on the same page. I'll put my vote in to Gamer's Gambit, then.

I look forward to it, but please take your time.

Oh I will! Lord knows I don't have a lot of it!

Put me down for Gamer's Gambit, as well. Despite my love for the magic/tech dichotomy, I can't think of any good way to incorporate it into DnD without resorting to an artificer knockoff.
But something based on a video game... Oh yeah, sign me up.

[Tanuki Tales]

Holy crap...we're back.

[TheWombatOfDoom]

Holy crap...we're back.

We are indeed! And just in time too!

[Tanuki Tales]

I'm going to extend the contest for...site went down on the 22nd, right?

So the contest will end on the 8th of May.

I'll extend the theme voting if necessary, but let's see if we can get it done today.

Then be thee forewarned! I will be submitting "Mutagenic Madness" and/or "When Two Become One" (the symbiont thing) every contest! It's uh... kinda my thing ::blush::

Wait a sec... ::looks at Gamer's Gambit in sudden awe:: VOTING FOR GAMER'S GAMBIT! Just realized how I can have my cake anyway! Thank you video games, for having a little bit of EVERYTHING if one digs enough.

I can't wait to see what you do! What everyone does!

I'll give you a hint...

"Ikkashio!! RaigekiSHOU!!!" If you know don't spoil the surprise ;)

[Tanuki Tales]

Time for a run down on the Gallows Ghost!


I didn't see any grammar issues and such when I last read through it, so I'll skip that bit.

• Let me start by saying that I absolutely love everything in general about this template. I love the feel, I love the imagery it invokes and I love the mechanics. Good job.
• A template can only be acquired or inherited, not both. This template is acquired.
• Isn't the SR a little on the low side?
• Shouldn't Last Breath make them begin suffocating, not dying?
• What does Lynchable do, other than allow a Gallows Ghost to be bound and captured?
• I'm curious how a Gallows Ghost deals with creature immune to nonlethal damage.
• With all that said, this template does not deserve to be CR +3. The vanilla Ghost is only CR +2 and it's honestly significantly better than this template.

And that's all for now.

[Tanuki Tales]

I think it's safe to call Gamer's Gambit next month's theme.

I'll have the voting put together for June's theme shortly.

With this first draft round, you'll receive 7 votes to cast, none of which can be for the same theme. The voting for this will remain open until 11:59 EST on Friday; afterwards, the amount will be cut down from 14 to 7.

All of these themes are from past contests, so if you're curious about them you can check the first post (except Gamer's Gambit, which doesn't get made till tomorrow).

[Tanuki Tales]

This month's contest is up now. Keep in mind that last month's is still going on till the 8th, so if you need to finish up an entry or still want to submit one, know is the time.
